About the Author

E. M. (Edward McKendree) Bounds (1835–1913) has given us a powerful legacy of prayer, believing it to be the strongest link between God and man. Bounds was a pastor and editor who spent many years reading, writing, praying, and taking part in revival ministry. Deeply concerned for the world, Bounds would rise at 4 a.m. to pray. Since the time of the apostles, no man besides Bounds has left such a rich inheritance of research into the life of prayer.

Incredible book on prayer!
5 Stars
Incredible book on prayer!
This book is powerful! The Scriptural examples of the importance of prayer and his passion seeps through the book and fills me up to go to my secret place. I don’t need another book on prayer because this one is hundreds of pages long and is my go to for devotional time or when I need encouragement in prayer. Highly recommend. The old English language makes it more beautiful in my opinion (and I’m only 28!). I appreciate his writing so much.

A wonderful insight to prayer! This calm and peaceful literature will be a blessing to all. If your struggling with prayer and really want to have effective heartfelt communing with God through Jesus this is the help and inspiration you'll need. This isn't a book of pomp or bravado prayer tactics, it's for the humble.

5.0 out of 5 stars The reason for regular Prayer.
Reviewed in the United States on May 2, 2009
Verified Purchase
I have just finished reading this book and find myself already a changed man. The product itself is certainly appealing with a Classic Hardcover look and tight binding. The prose is eloquent yet perfectly comprehensible to those that read regularly - one need not fear a King James style.

But beyond these cosmetic descriptives, you might use the words of E.M. Bounds as I did, for my morning devotion time. No matter what method you currently have for your personal bible study, these profound words cannot help but plant deep within your soul an irresistible urge to pray to God.

This is no book of formulas or ritual. Bounds here will state plainly, and in varied form, why we ought pray, and why praying must be the mark of mature Christians - by providing many evidences of past great followers of Christ.

Bounds is insistent about the requirement and urgency of prayer in our lives. He describes many places of prayer in Scripture and its results. He also informs us about false, cheap or empty praying. Without implying that we ought to spend hours talking to God, it could be asked what might be more natural than conversing with our Father. This book should become a motivation to any Christian to become serious about maturing in their prayer and spiritual maturity. Simply take his lead at the end of each chapter - and talk to God!

I love E. M. Bounds. He certainly put much time into this book. It is informative, very thought provoking, very deep! I can only read small portions at a time, to allow it to digest in my brain, heart and soul. This is not a book to speed read through, too many nuggets to appreciate. If you only have 2 books in your home, I recommend the Holy Bible, and this book!!!!

I recommend this book if you want to have a better understanding of prayer. Christ taught us how to pray so it doesn’t have to be complicated, but if you are searching for a better spiritual experience this book may answer your questions and help you reach your spiritual goals. Pray always.

E.M.Bounds on Prayer- I was talking to a pastor about a prayer book and he said have you ever heard of E.M.BOUNDS - my answer was no- he said it was an excellent prayer book- so I sent to Amazon for it - and as usual - no sooner the word than the deed --- I now have it --- and need to study it as soon as possible - for we all need prayer and to be prayed for--- and sometimes we need to know how to pray - this book does just that -----
