Prevailing Prayer: What Hinders It?
'Prevailing Prayer: What Hinders It?' Summary
In "Prevailing Prayer: What Hinders It?", Dwight L. Moody, a prominent figure in 19th-century American evangelism, addresses the crucial subject of prayer. He firmly asserts that prayer, along with the study of Scripture, constitutes a cornerstone of a thriving Christian life. However, Moody acknowledges that prayer can be hindered by various factors, such as a lack of understanding of God's will, a reliance on self-effort rather than faith, and a failure to acknowledge and address sin in one's life. He explores these obstacles in detail, offering practical advice and scriptural examples to illustrate his points. Throughout the book, Moody emphasizes the importance of a humble, sincere heart and a genuine desire to seek God's will in prayer. He stresses that true prayer is not merely about asking for things but about seeking a closer relationship with God and surrendering to His purpose. While recognizing that prayer may not always bring about the desired immediate results, Moody assures the reader that persistent, heartfelt prayer can lead to remarkable transformation in both personal and global spheres.Book Details
