Quiet Talks on Power , one of the most popular books in the Quiet Talk series , explores the awesome potential for spiritual power lying dormant in the life of every believer. All of us desire power- power to change our lives and rearrange our circumstances- but few have discovered it. Gordon exposes the channels of your heart to the cleansing flood of God's grace, preparing it for an overflow of divine power. In his unique descriptive style, Gordon prepares your soul to be connected to the divine source. You will discover that power is not a thing, but a person. Once we are properly in union with Him, Christ's power can flow through us. Open your heart. Open the book. Let the power flow.
Samuel Dickey Gordon was a widely traveled speaker in high demand. A prolific author, he wrote more than 25 devotional books. He also traveled to Europe and Asia as a missionary. A plain man, controlled by a strong desire to edify God's people, he won the respect of the learned and at the same time the affection of the simple.
As far as books on dealing with Indwelling sin go, this book is right up there with the best. It was clearly preached as a series of messages and later on transcribed and compiled and could have done with a little formatting but that does not take away from a well-put-together treatise on the work of the Holy Spirit in the life of the believer.
It is not theologically heavy which makes it a good recommendation for the average reader.
