In the Secret of His Presence: Helps for our Inner Spiritual Life When Alone with God ? A Christian Guide

Rate this book
In this insightful book, we hear how immensely valuable and important solitude is when consulting God for counsel and spiritual direction. The notion of 'secret communion', wherein a believer approaches the Lord in prayer, is the topic at hand. Making a case for the principle of consulting God alone and in private, George Halley Knight explains how the ceaseless activity and hubbub of modern existence deprives the mind and spirit of much-needed silence. The allotment of a mere few minute daily to solitary consultation can, in the writer's view, aid immensely in the spiritual health of all Christians. There are various other advantages to consulting with God in private; the unseen spirits are inclined to become known when the believer is alone. The emotional effect of being alone with these, of baring one's soul and consulting with the divine in authenticity, cannot be understated. The effect of such lonesome, secret communion is soon revealed - greater inner strength and well-being.

Loved this book! Def adding to my yearly reads. Had to sit with some of the chapters so it took me a while to read. Not one that can be rushed through in my opinion.

Waiting on God

It’s sad to say, but waiting upon the LORD in the stillness of prayer is a lost Christian discipline. “In the secret of His Presence.” Has been so encouraging to me! It has helped me greatly in experiencing unclouded communion with God. Bless His Name!

Great book!!

This eye opening book reveals the off neglected teaching of spending intentional, personal communion with Yahweh. I highly recommend this book to any believer.

Highly Desirable

This book is about a subject with which many, if not most, christians are unfamiliar: intimacy with God. If that is something you desire, this book is for you.
