The Possibilities of Prayer

By E.M. Bounds

Book Overview

"The Possibilities of Prayer" is a profound theological exploration into the transformative power of spiritual communication and its role in the life of a believer. Written by Edward M. Bounds, a renowned authority on the subject, this work examines the vast potential of prayer not merely as a religious duty, but as a vital force that connects the human experience with divine intervention. The text posits that the limitations placed on prayer are often self-imposed, and that through fervent faith, the possibilities for grace, healing, and change are virtually limitless.

Throughout the book, Bounds draws upon scriptural foundations to illustrate how prayer serves as the primary engine for spiritual vitality and church health. He emphasizes the necessity of persistence, earnestness, and unwavering trust in God's promises. By analyzing the intersection of human will and divine sovereignty, "The Possibilities of Prayer" provides a compelling argument for a life dedicated to intercession. This work stands as a classic of Christian literature, offering timeless insights into how a disciplined prayer life can unlock spiritual resources and navigate the challenges of the earthly journey. It remains an essential resource for those seeking to deepen their understanding of the profound impact that consistent, faithful prayer can have on the world.

Possibilities to prayer

This book tells about the promise's of God being fulfilled through prayer. Prayer is based on the purpose and promise of God. Prayer is submission to God. God's promises are always personal and specific. God wants each believer to claim the promise as his own. God's word says nothing is impossible to the Lord. And all the possibilities in God are in prayer.

Very inspiring! I find EM Bounds practical and pertinent.

I especially like the way he focuses on getting the answers to prayer. These pages are full of encouragement along with practical lessons on how to obtain more answers. I ordered 20 for my prayer group. Very inspiring.
