002 - The Lack of Prayer

In Ministry of Intercession, Andrew Murray makes a heartfelt appeal for the power of prayer, sub-titled A Plea for More Prayer. He explores the profound truth that God is fundamentally a prayer-hearing God, as evidenced throughout Scripture, in the lives of saints, and in the ministry of Jesus Himself. Building on insights from his earlier work, “With Christ in the School of Prayer,” Murray emphasizes that prayer should be the driving force behind the Churchs mission and highlights the importance of intercession—praying not just for our own needs but for others within the Christian community. The book wraps up with practical guidelines that equip readers to embrace the transformative practice of intercession. - Summary by Christopher Smith
