Andrew Murray always inspires anew. Praying is taught us by God Himself!

This book is a reminder of the purpose of prayer in your life and your job as intercessor of the Most High God!!!

Mr. Murray is an excellent presenter of the truth.

This book will impact your perspective of how you relate to God, and how you communicate with others.

Murray gives us four reflections on how the Lord teaches us to pray. The first is taken from the title verse and simply reflects on the significance of each word in the request. The second explores what it means to pray in spirit and in truth. The third focuses on the prayer in secret and the rewards the Lord gives those who seek him. The last is a phrase by phrase reflection on the Lord's prayer. Each of these studies concludes with a prayer of response to the truths in these reflections.

You can read this book within an hour, it's so short, yet your prayer life can be so greatly impacted by it. Clear breakdown of what scripture tells us about prayer and how to pray. Worth to be your constant companion for the rest of your life.

An excellent, well-written book sent from God about true prayer.

About the Author:

Andrew Murray (9 May 1828 – 18 January 1917) was a South African writer, teacher and Christian pastor. Murray considered missions to be "the chief end of the church". Andrew Murray was the second child of Andrew Murray Sr. (1794–1866), a Dutch Reformed Church missionary sent from Scotland to South Africa. He was born in Graaff Reinet, South Africa. His mother, Maria Susanna Stegmann, was of French Huguenot and German Lutheran descent.

Murray was sent to Aberdeen in Scotland for his initial education, together with his elder brother, John. Both remained there until they obtained their master's degrees in 1845. From there, they both went to the University of Utrecht where they studied theology. The two brothers became members of Het Réveil, a religious revival movement opposed to the rationalism which was in vogue in the Netherlands at that time. Both brothers were ordained by the Hague Committee of the Dutch Reformed Church on 9 May 1848 and returned to the Cape.

Murray married Emma Rutherford in Cape Town, South Africa, on 2 July 1856. They had eight children together (four boys and four girls).

Murray pastored churches in Bloemfontein, Worcester, Cape Town and Wellington, all in South Africa. He was a champion of the South African Revival of 1860.

In 1889, he was one of the founders of the South African General Mission (SAGM), along with Martha Osborn and Spencer Walton. After Martha Osborn married George Howe, they formed the South East Africa General Mission (SEAGM) in 1891. SAGM and SEAGM merged in 1894. Because its ministry had spread into other African countries, the mission's name was changed to Africa Evangelical Fellowship (AEF) in 1965. AEF joined with Serving In Mission (SIM) in 1998 and continues to this day. Through his writings, Murray was also a key Higher Life or Keswick leader, and his theology of faith healing and belief in the continuation of the apostolic gifts made him a significant forerunner of the Pentecostal movement.
