Praying Clear Through
Originally Published in 1915
It has been the author's firm conviction that the crying need of this age is a praying Christianity. When the weakest saint falls upon his knees the devil trembles. If the weakest can cause him to fear, what about a Daniel? a Paul? One's experience is as rich and his faith as strong as his prayer life, In all my ministry, we have never failed When we could get the church on her knees. Christians all over the country having read our articles, and heard our sermons and lectures on this vital subject, have begged us for this book. We know that the prayer life is the Christian's force, the Christian's power-house, and the more we pray the stronger will we be against evil and for the right.
We have not written this book for the learned man, nevertheless he can find food for his soul, but for those who want, and need, help in their prayer life, We have written this book while
upon the field of battle and in the thickest of the fight, where God answered by fire every heart-cry of His children.
Let me urge each and every reader to begin today a Constant waiting upon God; an unrelenting, deep, quiet prayer life. We must get quiet to get the ear of God. We know, by twenty-five years' experience, that God will hear, and that God does answer prayer. We wish for every reader a burden for prayer, a hunger for prayer. We must pray. We must never quit just because we do not get the answer at once. When God leads out in prayer, follow earnestly, He is leading, there is something ahead. Take notice, look, listen, get ready. The cloud is rising, There is soon to be a going in the mulberry-trees. Do not read one chapter and quit the book, but give each and every chapter a faithful reading.

Excellent book on prayer, meant to be savored, read, studied, and reread. I was humbled by the testimonies of people's prayer journeys and the fruit that resulted. To God be the glory! It has given me extra faith, strength and hope during a valley that I'm walking through. It's put a yearning in my heart to learn to pray this way. Thank you mom...and thank you Lord for putting this powerful book in my hands. I read it through on my own and am rereading and praying clear through with my husband now. God bless.

The authors' vernacular and grammar made this a very slow read for me. He details personal accounts and experiences of prayer and fasting and the many results of those answeres prayers. One can not help but be drawn to a greater devotion to prayer and praying until you have a confirmed answer after reading his testimonials.

Excellent book on prayer! Now, to put into practice. Highly recommend if you have a desire and heart to learn more about prayer. The Bible and this book together are great resources.
