Lynnette's Reviews > How to Pray

This Little book on prayer was life changing. Torrey was succinct, inspiring, and unapologetic. There are no excuses for not living a prayer filled life. The whole book feels like an urgent plea for help. Torrey was asking his generation, no begging, them to fill their lives with prayer. Again and again he pointed out the importance of pairing prayer with reading the word of God. Even in sections such as having confidence in prayer and being able to ask God for requests, he always brought it back to the Word. You cannot do these things unless you are following the will of God and you can only follow the will of God if you are immersed in his word. And yet he believed in the absolute power of prayer. The power not to change God's mind, but to be part of what God is doing.
