Rev. E. M. Bounds was overwhelmingly devoted to his beloved Lord. There are few who have lived since the days of the Apostles who have surpassed him in the depths of his marvelous research into the life of prayer. This American clergyman of the twentieth century wrote seven books on prayer, many of which have frequently been unavailable to the general reading public. Rev. Leonard Ravenhill has done the Church a great service in preparing this compilation of these seven marvelous books: Power through Prayer Purpose in Prayer The Necessity of Prayer The Essentials of Prayer The Weapon of Prayer The Possibilities of Prayer The Reality of Prayer In the Foreword, David Otis Fuller says that this book "is worth its weight in diamonds." The compiler encourages you to keep this book at hand, read it often, and practice it always! It is truly A Treasury of Prayer.

Join him on his journey from a life of sin and rebellion to his glorious conversion. Share his struggles and triumphs as he establishes orphan homes to care for thousands of English children, depending upon God's response to his prayer of faith.

"If I might read only one book beside the Bible, I would choose The Christian in Complete Armour." --John Newton "Peerless and priceless; every line is full of wisdom; every sentence is suggestive . . . . The best thought-breeder in all our library." --C.H. Spurgeon "I believe The...  more

"If I might read only one book beside the Bible, I would choose The Christian in Complete Armour." --John Newton "Peerless and priceless; every line is full of wisdom; every sentence is suggestive . . . . The best thought-breeder in all our library." --C.H. Spurgeon "I believe The Christian in Complete Armour . . . should be in the library of everyman and woman of God. No Christian leader, teacher, pastor, evangelist, or Christian worker should be without it." --David Wilkerson At a time in England when loyalty to Scripture placed Christians in the center of the nation's wars, Gurnall was more concerned with the souls of his people than the issues of conflicting political parties. Compiled from his many sermons on "the saints' war against the devil," his exhaustive exposition of Ephesians 6:10-20 treats the spiritual battles of believers and their God-given protection. Originally written in three volumes (1655-1662), the book first covers the Christian's call to arms and describes the nature of the battle and the character of our enemy. The various pieces of godly armor and weapons, and their use on offense and defense, are then described at length, item by item and verse by verse. More pastoral and practical than theological, Gurnall's work is filled with spiritual insight, encouraging exhortation, and inspiring word pictures concerning the importance of doctrinal truth as "a girdle for the mind," the power of holiness, the "pre-eminence of faith against other graces," and much more. Profoundly biblical and as relevant today as it was almost 350 years ago, Gurnall's work is a resource that will add grace to the library of Calvinist and Arminian alike. This edition includes an introduction and biography of Gurnall by J.C. Ryle.

Private or secret prayer is the life-blood of the Christian. The great men and women of God down through the ages have testified to the effectiveness of this in their lives. Some like Martin Luther, have said that they could not survive a busy day without spending 2-3 hours alone with God. Drawing on the experiences of people like Luther, Spurgeon, Muller, Whitefield and Wesley, the author presses the case for a greater commitment to prayer. His advice may not only transform your life, it could be a catalyst towards a change in the world around you.

"These are they which follow the Lamb withersoever he goeth." Revelation 14:4 The footprints of the Lamb of God mark out the only way upon which true spiritual progress is possible. It is the pathway where the Christian finds enduring peace, lives a fruitful life, wins spiritual victories, and attains the goal of glory. He who follows the Lamb in His way comes at last to where the Lamb himself dwells. And the Lamb is in the midst of the throne of God. No other way will lead there. With great sensitivity, Steinberger leads the reader to an understanding of the practical meanings of all the virtues surrounding Christlikeness: love, service, humility, obedience, and readiness for Jesus' return!

The extraordinary story of the young African who came to be called "The Apostle of Simple Faith."While most missionary biographies detail the lives of Western missionaries, this is the story of the African missionary that God called to the United States when slavery and segregation were a way of life. Previously published under the title The March of Faith, this book details the moving life story of Samuel Morris.After a miraculous escape from certain death during the ravages of intertribal warfare in Liberia, Africa, Kaboo was converted to Christ by Methodist missionaries and baptized under the name Samuel Morris. Traveling to America for pastoral training in the late 1880's, his trip was a missionary voyage in itself when several seamen were lead to Christ through his godly life. At Taylor University his example of faith made him a leader among the students and a challenge to the faulty.An unforgettable biography which shows Christ's love felling all racial barriers.

From a village of twenty huts in the hills of Natal, South Africa, emerged a Zulu with a passion of God - William Duma. 'Take Your Glory Lord' tells the story of this amazing man. Duma entered Baptist seminary and later encountered God in such an intense way that it changed him forever. His ministry was filled with the miraculous power of God. He saw many people healed, delivered and even raised from the dead. Duma was a humble man whose concern was always that God would have the glory for all these events, hence his well-used catch phrase - the title of this book.

The purpose of this book is to bring together in one convenient volume some of the best devotional verse the English language affords, and thus to make available to present day Christians a rich spiritual heritage which the greater number of them for various reasons do not now enjoy. I have not hesitated to apply the term "mystical" to the material I have collected here, though I readily admit that fewer than half a dozen of the men and women who would be called true mystics in the strict classical sense will be found here. Such names as Eckhart, Ruysbroeck, John of the Cross, Teresa, Rolle, Tauler, Hilton, Francis of Assisi, for instance, are not represented in this volume at all. On the other hand the frequent appearance of such a man as Watts might cause the reader to lift a questioning eyebrow and ask, "Is Watts also among the mystics?" Well, the answer must be, Of course he is, and so are John Newton and James Montgomery and Reginald Heber and Charles Wesley, as well as many others who might have balked at being called mystics but whose writings, nevertheless, reveal unmistakable traces of purest mysticism and are the better for it. And for that matter the same thing may be said of the inspired writings of such men as Moses and David and Isaiah and Daniel and Paul and John, the works of the latter showing more than traces of the mystical spirit, being indeed charged full with it.

The Reformed Pastor is a faithful exposition of Acts 20:28, calling pastors to a ministry that extends the public preaching into patient, private instruction of the entire flock, until all have learned the basic truths of Scripture and had the applications of this truth pressed upon their lives. The greatest helpfulness of the book lies in Baxter's earnestness and urgency in exposing the glory and necessity of the work, and the wickedness that lies behind all of our excuses for not doing it. Once one starts reading The Reformed Pastor, it becomes clear why it is such a classic. The exhortations regarding humility, double-mindedness, discipline, purity and various other fruits of the spirit are as pertinent and necessary today as they were in Baxter's day. The problems that Baxter encountered sound eerily familiar: corrupt clergy abandoning their divine duty out of fear of men, the misunderstanding of the clergy regarding exactly what a minister does with his day, the lack of interest in many congregants regarding deep and doctrinal teaching, etc. The problems and temptations are neither new nor novel; what Baxter found to be the case in the church of the 17th century seems to still be the case in the church of the 21st century. Satan doesn't have a whole lot of new tricks up his sleeve, but the ones he has seem to be conditioned by experience to work quite well. Beyond timeless wisdom, Baxter has a way of articulating thoughts in profound and pithy ways. In talking about the need for simplicity in preaching, Baxter states "truth loves the light, and is more beautiful when most naked". Baxter?s call to humility is a necessary one, and the admonition to examine oneself is an unfamiliar one that all need reminding of. Baxter is like cough syrup for the soul; it's a hard swallow that heals what ails you.

During a train trip from Chicago to Texas in the late 1940s, A. W. Tozer began to write The Pursuit of God. He wrote all night, and when the train arrived at his destination, the rough draft was done.

We live in an age of affluence and luxury in which suffering is feared more than sin. In these countries where there is religious liberty we little realizae what persecution many of God's dear children in other lands are called to endure for the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Our hearts are stirred as we read the history of the Stundists, who nobly suffered for Christ in Czarist Russia during the last half of the nineteenth century. It is a record of uncompromising faith, courage, intense suffering, and martyrdom, and yet withal victory -- a story that will prove an inspiration to many to "stand fast in the faith."

E.M. Bounds truly followed the charge to pray without ceasing. It was as normal and essential to him as breathing. But though he was in prayer constantly, it never became a chore to him.

"A Man On Fire" is the story of Maynard James, who died in 1988 after many years of vibrant Ministry in many countries. He trained at Cliff College under the great Samuel Chadwick, and went on to become a leader in the Holiness Movement. Along with Jack Ford, Leonard Ravenhill, and Clifford Filer he established churches all over the British Isles. He was President of the Calvary Holiness Church, but when this denomination was merged with the larger Church of the Nazarene he was given a roving commission, having close ties with leaders in several denominations, including those in the pentecostal and charismatic movements. For nearly fifty years he was editor of the Flame magazine. This book covers many topics, and some of the thorny issues are tackled with courage and conviction."

Leonard Ravenhill’s call to revival is as timely now as it was when first published over forty years ago. The message is fearless and often radical as he expounds on the disparity between the New Testament church and the church today. Why Revival Tarries contains the heart of his message. A.W. Tozer called Ravenhill "a man sent from God" who "appeared at [a] critical moment in history," just as the Old Testament prophets did. Included are questions for group and individual study. Ravi Zacharias refers to this as "the book that shaped me...more dramatically than any other..."

Leonard Ravenhill presents prayer as faith in action in this fast-paced presentation of this crucial subject. He called prayer the most essential ingredient in producing revival. Filled with exhortations and illustrations, it teaches the art of effective praying—which will result in revival.

Originally published in 1979, "America Is Too Young to Die," is one of Leonard Ravenhill's best books. Ravenhill says, "This much is sure: this generation is mesmerized by materialism and tantalized by TV. It is jeopardized by evils no other age has known, and victimized by cruel, malicious propaganda that clouds reality and therefore confuses thinking. The last but not least ingredient of this 'witches brew' is the religious jackanapes, attracting the crowd to his revival jamboree with the lure of miracles, as a cover-up for his itch for gold. In the foreword, Vance Havner wrote, "His message is the prophetic trumpet blast, not a pep talk at the civic club." The book contains Ravenhill's description of a prophet. No better or more powerful description of a biblical prophet has ever been written.
