Answered Prayer

by E.M. Bounds

The utmost possibilities of prayer have rarely been realized. The promises of God are answered to those who truly pray.
His promises to answer, to do, and to give “all things,” “anything,” “whatsoever,” and “ all things whatsoever” are so very large, so very great, and so exceedingly broad that it almost staggers our faith and causes us to hesitate with astonishment.
All God asks is that, when we pray, we believe Him and trust that His promises in His Word are true.

About the author

Edward McKendree Bounds was a Methodist minister, revivalist, author and lawyer.

Unsuccessful in the California gold rush of 1849, E.M. Bounds returned home to Missouri and became the state’s youngest practicing attorney at age 19. In his early twenties he was deeply impacted by the Third Great Awakening, and at age 24 he was ordained for ministry. During his lifetime he pastored churches, traveled as an evangelist, served as a Civil War chaplain, edited a Christian periodical and was a devoted husband and father. But E.M. Bounds is best known for prayer. His daily habit was to spend the time between 4 am and 7 am praying. His writings on prayer are widely acclaimed to be among the finest of any author before or since.

Parts of it I found interesting and helpful and other parts I wasn't so sure if I agreed with them. I might come back and listen to this again later.
