"Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name" Matthew 6:9 Some of the most incredible, hard-hitting, and revealing words on prayer came from the pen of E.M. Bounds. Of the 11 books he wrote, 9 are centered on this topic. For over a century, pastors, Christians, and teachers have been using his words for guidance and inspiration for their own communication with God. They have all become sought-after classics to this day. Who better to draw from on the subject than a man who brought revival to his region through prayer meetings? Known as a person who spent hours every day with God, he not only wrote about prayer, he practiced it. Bringing these truths to modern readers meant having a careful understanding of the text and meaning without losing anything along the way. As a result, older phrases and words have been adapted while holding onto the treasure of Bounds' insight and wisdom. More than that, we have searched through all of his 9 books on prayer to create an easy-to-use devotional highlighting some of his most enlightening commentaries on the different aspects of prayer. It was not easy to choose from such a vast storehouse of spiritual wealth-what to include and what to leave out. In some instances, we have taken excerpts and passages from the different books and aligned them together according to the same themes. To assist with this, we have included Daily Reflections at the end of each reading to assist in your study and quiet time.Our heart in creating this month-long daily devotional is to challenge, encourage, and hopefully bring you into a deeper relationship with Jesus as you realize the importance of the tool of prayer that is available to every one of us.
