It takes the whole man to pray, and such prayer affects the entire man in its gracious results. As the whole nature of man enters into prayer, so also all that belongs to man is the beneficiary of prayer.

The whole man must be given to God in praying. The largest results in praying come to him who gives himself, all of himself, all that belongs to himself, to God.

This is the secret of full consecration, and this is a condition of successful praying, and the sort of praying which brings the largest fruits."

Like Hannah do we pour out our soul in prayer or is our praying perfunctory?

E. M Bounds 1835-1913
Author/Preacher

E M Bounds was trained and apprenticed as an attorney but instead of pursuing a legal career, he entered the ministry in his early twenties. He went on to become a man of prayer. As breathing is a physical reality to us, so prayer was a on going reality to Bounds. He prayed intensely and relentlessly. He understood and practiced the reality of "prevailing prayer". And what he wrote about prayer and its attendant blessings remains unparalleled in recent Christian history. If you are eager to learn to pray like Jacob who wrestled with God or keen to know how to earnestly pray like Elijah, read E M Bound’s book titled "Prevailing Prayer" – your prayer life will never be same again! – John @ Singapore
