These words of J C Ryle are as true today as they were when they were first written over 150 years ago. Prayer matter, and Eric Alexander's chief concern in this book is to remind Christians that prayer is fundamental, and not supplemental, both in the individual and in the corporate lives of God's people. He shows that nowhere is this dependence on prayer more fully exemplified than in the life and teaching of Jesus himself, and in the ministry of the New Testament church.
Church leaders will find these studies a great spur to pray for the spiritual growth of their people, and church members will see afresh the urgent need to prayer for their leaders.
For those who find it difficult to prayer there is much encouragement here, as the author also addresses the common problems believers face when coming to pray. In short this is a book for all those who want to live nearer to God and to be refreshed in their communion with him.
