The Power of Prayer

by R. A. Torrey

Overview

The Power of Prayer
Prayer is the answer to the poverty and powerlessness that have infested the church of Christ. By example, Jesus demonstrated the power of prayer and all that can be accomplished through intercession. And He promises that the same power is available today.

• Have God’s power in your Christian walk.
• Know God’s will for your life.
• Eliminate hindrances to prayer.
• Receive all that God has for you.

As you tap into the power of prayer, you will see lives and circumstances all around you begin to change!

About the Author

Reuben Archer Torrey (1856–1928) was one of the greatest evangelists of the twentieth century. Several years after his graduation from Yale Divinity School, he was selected by D. L. Moody to become the first dean of the Moody Bible Institute of Chicago. Under his direction, Moody Institute became a pattern for Bible institutes around the world. From 1903 to 1905, Dr. Torrey traveled the world in revival campaigns, winning thousands of souls to Jesus Christ. He continued worldwide crusades for the next fifteen years while he served as the dean of the Bible Institute of Los Angeles and pastored that city’s Church of the Open Door. Dr. Torrey longed for more Christian workers to take an active part in bringing the message of salvation through Christ to a lost and dying world. His straightforward style of evangelism has shown thousands of Christian workers how to become effective soulwinners.
