Every faithful Christian should be intimately acquainted with the remarkable power of prayer. Sincere prayer is a fountain of divine power flowing into our lives. Through prayer we gain clear and precise direction. Through prayer we access the strength of character to perform God's will - to do what is right. Prayer is the process we use to place ourselves in contact with God. The impressive power of prayer warrants the consideration not only of Christians, but of all societies. This little booklet will highlight the principle applications and purposes of prayer. It will confirm that God does answer our prayers and demonstrate how we can be more aware of those divine answers. It will also examine the challenging question of why, at times, it appears that God does not answer us and what we can do about it.
