Principles of Prayer

By Charles Grandison Finney

One of America's greatest evangelists instructs Christians on how to pray with this 40-day devotional study.

Charles Finney's ministry rolled like a spiritual shock wave across the American landscape in the nineteenth century. He attributed his effectiveness in large part to prayer. Now his superb insights are condensed and collected in a single book.

Principles of Prayer provides a 40-day devotional study for those desiring to pray with power and see results. Each daily reading--through meditation, application, and prayer--will help you grow to Christian maturity.

Charles G. Finney, widely acknowledged as one of America's foremost evangelists, was a great man of prayer as well. Over half a million people were converted under his ministry in the 1800s.

Prayer Principles

A great starter book for learning how to pray according to God's will and how to sincerely seek the Lord through prayer. I give them to all my believing friends to enrich their walk with Christ!

Life-changing, but prefer the older version

This book on prayer answered questions I didn't even know I had. I recommend that people first read Finney's Memoirs for an exciting picture of what God did through him & his ministry. That is the best of Finney & will help you understand his other works. I honestly prefer the older version of this book because it is less 'updated' and uses a more literal translation of the Bible in its quotations. I consumed this book, going through it twice in a few weeks. Highly recommended.

Awesome!

These men of old really knew how to talk to God! Great book!

An awesome book on prayer

This was one of the first Finney books I ever read in the mid-80s. The principles of prayer I learned from this book then are still used in my life today. This book is the cream of his teaching on prayer from his Lectures on Revivals, broken down into daily devotionals. If you're longing for revival, or longing for God to answer your prayers, this may be just the book you need.
