Product Description

Considered by his peers then and now as "The Prince of Preachers," Charles Spurgeon built London's Metropolitan Tabernacle into the world's largest independent congregation during the nineteenth century. While many factors have been highlighted that help explain the effectiveness of Spurgeon's preaching, the foremost secret that empowered Charles Spurgeon was his devotion to prayer.

When people would walk through the Metropolitan Tabernacle, Spurgeon would take them to the basement prayer room where people were always on their knees interceding for the church. Then Spurgeon would declare, "Here is the powerhouse of this church." That statement is backed by the amazing number of sermons that Spurgeon preaced on prayer.

Spurgeon was a great believer and teacher in passionate, Holy Spirit-directed prayer. His word pictures of the majestic throne of grace that God calls believers to be privileged to come before is well worth the price of the book alone. You will be inspired and challenged in your prayer life, especially if you experience struggles in prayer.

Power of prayer, or power of prayer in a believer's life....
Spurgeon goes straight to the heart of the issue before you even open the book. He explains to the reader in no uncertain terms what God requires of His children and what He is willing to bestow upon them for their obedience. Spurgeon is a timeless writer although at times (most!) he makes for some very intense reading. I have read other solid books on prayer but this is the best.

The Prince of Preachers on Prayer
Charles Spurgeon not only preached on prayer but he lived it. Lewis Drummond, in his biography of Spurgeon, commented that Spurgeon was ever in communion it seemed with his Lord. Spurgeon believed 1 Thessalonians 5:17 that Christians are to "pray without ceasing." He believed Mark 11:22-25, that true prayer can move mountains. Charles Spurgeon believed in prayer because he believed in the sovereignty of his God.

This short collection of Spurgeon's sermons on prayer will offer you a glimpse into the heart of this man of prayer. Indeed, Spurgeon's church, Metropolitan Tabernacle in London, was a house of prayer. Spurgeon never claimed the growth for himself but to the power of God in prayer. Read this book and get on your face in prayer before a holy and righteous God.
