Publisher's summary

"Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit and watching in this with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints." (Ephesians 6:18)

Prayer. Satan laughs as he looks at the church today and says to himself, “You can have your Sunday schools and your young people’s small groups, your boys’ and girls’ programs, your vacation Bible schools, your Christian schools, your elegant churches, your retreats, your music programs, your brilliant preachers, and even your revival efforts - as long as you don’t bring the power of almighty God into them by earnest, persistent, believing, mighty prayer.”

It is not necessary that the whole church prays to begin with. Great revivals always begin first in the hearts of a few men and women whom God arouses by His Spirit to believe in Him as a living God, as a God who answers prayer, and upon whose heart He lays a burden from which no rest can be found except in persistent crying unto God.

May God use this book to inspire many who are currently prayerless, or nearly so, to pray earnestly. May God stir up your own heart to be one of those burdened to pray, and to pray until God answers.

Will ignite or reignite your passion for prayer!

This is the kind of book the Church needs to be reading in this hour. The world desperately needs God to pour out His Spirit. He is waiting for His people to cry out to Him in humble and whole-hearted prayer. If we do, He will respond with a revival the likes of which the world has never seen. Is that your desire? Then read this book and pray. Pray. Pray!
