Andrew Murray's chapters in "With Christ in the School of Prayer" are short and concise, yet somehow he manages to fill the reader's heart with a hunger for God's presence. Murray's passion for prayer shines through all 31 lessons. He truly takes you to the school of prayer and leads you before the throne of Almight God. `If ye abide in me, ask whatsoever ye will, and it shall be done unto you.' Power with God is the highest attainment of the life of full abiding. Christ in the School of Prayer Andrew Murray describes the role of the Holy Spirit within the church and exhorts Christians to use the blessings God has given us. It is a guide to living a life as a temple of the Holy Spirit and will fill your heart with a hunger for God's presence through 31 powerful lessons on prayer. "Lord, teach us to pray" (Luke 11:1). Drawing on Scripture, he begins each day by showing how Biblical principles apply to Christian prayer teaching the importance of the Holy Spirit in prayer, the value of faith, forgiveness, and perseverance. Each lesson ends with Andrew Murray sharing a personal prayer. Andrew Murray was a South African writer, teacher, and Christian pastor. Murray considered missions to be "the chief end of the church."

Andrew Murray classic
A number of versions and print runs of this book give us a bit of a clue. It is a timeless classic providing guidance on prayer in easily digestible chunks. I read it as part of a prayer group meeting fortnightly having read one chapter over the two weeks. Andrew Murray uses plain speaking to incremently increase our understanding and faith that prayers can and will be answered. I strongly recommend this book to individuals and groups. Currently it is available for a fraction of its original price and I will buy a few extra copies to gift. I pray that you feel encouraged by the book to step boldly out in prayer for specific and distinct needs that will reveal God's power. God Bless, Tim
