Why night-and-day prayer? What are the Biblical and historical precedents for night-and-day intercession and worship? How is unceasing prayer relevant to us today?
Billy Humphrey addresses these questions while challenging readers to consider their own calling to prayer. Unceasing: An Introduction to Night & Day Prayer presents night-and-day prayer from biblical, historical, and prophetic perspectives. Those who desire a greater understanding of the prayer movement that is sweeping the earth will find Unceasing to be an invaluable resource.
If you’ve been reading my reviews then you’d know I like to read authors from the International House of Prayer, a.k.a. IHOP. I had the chance to read Unceasing by Billy Humphrey expecting a great message on prayer but my expectations were half met.
Content
This is a small book but it goes straight to the point, the importance of unceasing prayer, its Biblical background, its presence around the world, its consequences in the corporate and in the private life.
The content is well organized and easy to understand. The message is clear and simple. Then what’s the problem? Well, there’s no really a problem, it’s just that each chapter is so small that the deepness of the message feels a bit shallow.
Being a re-release I’m pretty sure the author had the chance to expand his vision and give more insight into every chapter but this edition just has 31 more pages than its predecessor and a prettier cover.
Conclusion
Unceasing definitely has a great message that each christian should know and practice. It’s worth the reading and it won’t take you more than a couple of hours.
