Is your Christian life fruitful? John 15:1-17
We are called to bear fruit and live a life of abundance in Jesus, but it seems impossible! All of our efforts have very little to show for it, and we end up living mediocre Christian lives.
Andrew Murray shows that it is possible. His practical and Scriptural approach takes us through eye-opening and life-changing topics:
For anyone who has longed to have a close, fruitful relationship with Jesus, this guide will take you on a journey from when God first called you, to where you find yourself now, and on to a life of power, love, and joy if you choose to abide.
Set out as a 31-day devotional, this is the perfect tool to unpack all the richness of the parable of the vine and the branches that will bring us to a complete Christian life of bearing fruit.
I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.- John 15:5
DISCOVER THE JOY OF DYING TO SELF AND LIVING FOR GOD.
With insightful, penetrating clarity, Andrew Murray calls all Christians to turn from pride, study the character of Christ, and be filled with His grace. In every chapter, his Godly wisdom will help you cultivate a Christ-nourished life as you learn to model your life after Christ's and discover the joy of dying to self and living for the glory of God!
Humility by Andrew Murray was first published in 1895. Clear, easy-to-understand, but incredibly profound, this book has become a classic on the subject of humility. While holding firmly to Andrew Murray's classic teaching and theology and retaining the elegance of his writing style, this edition is updated to make Murray's writing more accessible to modern readers. It includes the following updates:
Our earnest prayer is that you find this updated edition much easier to understand and that God would bless you through any teaching in it that is in line with the Gospel as revealed in His Word.
Prayer is the beating heart of our relationship with God. But why must it be in secret? Why does Jesus insist we close the door when we pray?
In this classic guidebook, McIntyre draws from some of the great men of God who have gone before us: Spurgeon, Bonar, Luther, and others to reveal their own lives in prayer and what we can learn from them in order to find a greater commitment to communicating with God.
His practical approach exposes the equipment we need to enter a secret place of prayer:
Not only that, but he defines and explains the systematic way we can order our time in the upper room:
With such clear guidelines, backed up with Scripture and quotes from prominent Christians, this book will challenge you to go deeper in your time of secret prayer and point you to a rewarding, treasure-filled life in Jesus.
God brings books at their appointed times. The Hidden Life of Prayer arrived late but well-timed. This little jewel-strewn tapestry has done for me at 64 what Bounds' Power Through Prayer did at 34. I could be ashamed that I need inspiration for the highest privilege. But I choose to be thankful.
-John Piper, author of A Hunger for God: Desiring God Through Fasting and Prayer
Every time I read this book, the Lord uses it to deepen my prayer life and encourage my faith. I strongly recommend it!
-Wayne Grudem, author of Systematic Theology
Jesus never taught His disciples how to preach, only how to pray. He did not speak much of what was needed to preach well but spoke much of praying well. To know how to speak to God is more important than knowing how to speak to man. Not power with men, but power with God is the first thing. Jesus loves to teach us how to pray.
What do you think, my beloved fellow disciples? Would it not be just what we needed, to ask the Master to give us a month-long course of special lessons on the art of prayer? As we meditate on the words He spoke on earth, let us yield to his teaching, in the fullest confidence that, with such a teacher, we shall make progress. Let us take time not only to meditate but to pray. To busy ourselves at the foot of the throne, and be trained in the work of intercession. -Andrew Murray

Do you believe God answers prayers?
Do you believe God will give you your specific request?
George Muller did! His life was filled with thousands of examples of God meeting his every need, many of them instantly! His accounts prove God listens and God answers prayers. And he believed that today, we can also pray the same kind of prayers he did and expect the same kind of answers.
In this 31-day devotional, Muller deals with many of the questions we have when it comes to prayer:
Filled with biblical teaching and practical examples from his own life, George Muller on Prayer reveals what it is like to depend on God for everything through prayer. He shows us how it is possible for us to trust and pray with the same faith he had.
I pray as I walk about, when I lie down, and when I rise up. And the answers are always coming. - George Muller.

Most books explain how important Prayer is and what it does for us as Christians, but they don't tell us how to do it, show what good a prayer looks like, or what to avoid.
This is a guide-a manual-that will take you step-by-step through the most simple yet crucial aspects of talking with God. Isaac Watts uses practical examples and covers logical, obvious points to help us pray correctly and Biblically.
Some topics included are:
Following a very rational approach, Watts uses biblical evidence, arguments and objections, suggestions, rules, and practical advice to guide us into being able to pray effectively and spiritually.
If you're honestly longing for God as the deer pants for the water brooks, join Isaac Watts on this prayer adventure!
Prayer was one of Charles Spurgeon's favorite topics. Even among his top-rated books, the topic of prayer was dealt with from several angles. This volume is a collection of his best sermons on the subject. In his typical simple yet hard-hitting style, he covers topics that will challenge you and enlighten the eyes of your heart:
He avoided high, lofty, and academic tones and instead favored a more conversational attitude, which can be found in the prayer sermons in this book. The Lord Jesus did not say, 'Feed my giraffes, ' but 'Feed my sheep.' And so, this collection is easy to understand but not always as easy to digest because it demands an honest, passionate, and devoted response-the same way he lived his life!
To assist you, you will find the same heart and challenge that Spurgeon brought his congregants over 100 years ago, but in English, you can quickly grasp. In addition, we have designed and added a study guide to the end of each chapter to help you think even further and deeper on his words.
We desire that prayer will become deep, memorable, and powerful for you. As Spurgeon said, I would rather teach one man to pray than ten men to preach.
These are all questions we are sometimes too afraid to ask, and yet the Psalms are filled with these honest prayers and cries for God to answer. By looking more closely at the way David and others approached God, we can learn more about how to pray.
This book unpacks different Psalm passages and looks at many various aspects that we all struggle with and need to know more about for our own prayer lives:
Using the insight of classic Christian writers like A. W. Pink, Charles Spurgeon, Thomas Watson, John Calvin, Matthew Henry, Andrew Murray, and more, the Psalms will unfold with new meaning as you read prayers that come from the heart and prayers that God hears and answers.
It is not our prayers that interpret the Psalms but the Psalms that interpret our prayers. -Dietrich Bonhoeffer.
Most of us pray, but the truth is that our prayers are often shallow or produce no results at all, if any. Most of us mumble for a few minutes or cry out when we are desperate. Most of us just have lists that we bring before God and hope for the best. But there is more...
How to Pray effectively is a prayer classic that biblically guides even the most seasoned person of prayer into more profound, more significant prayer. It will renew your desire to seek God in prayer and guide you in best practices.
Filled with a spirit of graciousness, Pastor, Evangelist, and Author R. A. Torrey explains the elements of biblical, powerful prayer that avail much. Torrey reveals that there is more to it than just mouthing requests to God. There is more to prayer than reciting the Lord's Prayer or following a technique. It is a way to find the very heart and will of God and have faith to see Him move as a result of us on our knees.
In Ephesians 6:18, we read words that show the incredible importance of prayer very clearly and forcefully: Praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication. To that end, keep alert with all perseverance, making supplication for all the saints. When we really stop to understand the meaning of these words and their context, we will say, I must pray, pray, pray. I must put all my energy and all my heart into prayer. Whatever else I do, I must pray! ...Pray for great things, expect great things, work for great things, but above all pray! ― R. A. Torrey
Full of insight, The Prayer of Jabez is a timeless prayer classic by the Prince of preachers that will fill the reader's heart with a hunger to seek God in Prayer.
If you thought that the prayer of Jabez was about asking God for more stuff, read this revealing and challenging book by Charles H. Spurgeon that will give you a gospel-centered view of this Old Testament man, and his prayer for God's blessing.
In this book, Spurgeon analyzes what it means to be blessed and the numerous sorts of blessings we might get, noting the benefits and drawbacks of each. He then guides us through the process of determining the sort of blessing we should seek, which looks to be consistent with what the Bible teaches.
Also contained herein are many actual prayers as examples for everyone who desires the true blessings of God. Spurgeon's The Prayer of Jabez is a spiritual gem: small, beautiful, and of great value to the soul.
And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that thou wouldest bless me indeed... 1 Chronicles 4:10
The name Spurgeon carries incredible weight, even after more than 100 years. It is a testament to the respect and admiration Christians across denominations have for his insight and ability to convey spiritual matters simply and clearly.
Apart from having special consideration for the lost, prayer was one of Spurgeon's favorite topics. As part of the Godlipress series that promotes and encourages Biblical prayer, it was necessary to include his thoughts and insights on the topic.
This book covers many topics that will open your eyes to the importance and power of prayer:
This 31-day approach aims to bring Spurgeon's timeless gems into an easy-to-handle format without losing the effect of the original. Setting aside a month and focusing on the different aspects each day, each reading will be a challenge and inspiration for your prayer life.
To give even more room for Spurgeon's words to have an impact, study questions have been added to allow for deeper reflection. Allow the Holy Spirit to guide you as you work through these and contemplate their meaning for your own life.
Our desire is that prayer will become deep, special, and powerful to you. As Spurgeon said, I would rather teach one man to pray than ten men to preach.
I struggle to find the words to pray!
I don't know what to say when praying!
Have you ever found yourself in this position or said something like this? It happens to all Christians at some point. Our minds go blank, and we have no idea how we should speak to God. But we don't need to be at a loss for words.
Matthew Henry saw the importance of keeping the Bible close, especially when praying. He even encourages us to pray using Bible verses. Applying scripture, he reveals incredible truths to help us in our times of conversing with Jesus. Then, with practical application, he explains many essential aspects for us to understand and use in our own prayers:
Henry's biblical insights will open your mind and heart to see prayer in its proper place in your life. Using a verse-by-verse interpretation, he unpacks the secrets of what makes prayer so unique and how we can use it effectively to grow as Christians.
The best we can say to God in prayer is what He has said to us.― Matthew Henry.

J.C. Ryle gives straight answers to these and many more questions we have about prayer. His direct and simple approach is confronting and inspiring, with practical applications for our daily lives. Bold, encouraging, and affectionate, Ryle earnestly admonishes us to approach the throne of grace with boldness and confidence so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.
This format allows you to grow in the knowledge of prayer. Spread out over 31 chapters with daily reflections, you will be encouraged and challenged as you spend a month unlocking the treasures from one of the best classic Christian writers.
Prayer is the mightiest weapon that God has placed in our hands.
Some of the most incredible, hard-hitting, and revealing words on prayer came from the pen of E.M. Bounds. Of the 11 books he wrote, 9 are centered on this topic. For over a century, pastors, Christians, and teachers have been using his words for guidance and inspiration for their own communication with God. They have all become sought-after classics to this day.
Who better to draw from on the subject than a man who brought revival to his region through prayer meetings? Known as a person who spent hours every day with God, he not only wrote about prayer, he practiced it.
Bringing these truths to modern readers meant having a careful understanding of the text and meaning without losing anything along the way. As a result, older phrases and words have been adapted while holding onto the treasure of Bounds' insight and wisdom.
More than that, we have searched through all of his 9 books on prayer to create an easy-to-use devotional highlighting some of his most enlightening commentaries on the different aspects of prayer. It was not easy to choose from such a vast storehouse of spiritual wealth-what to include and what to leave out. In some instances, we have taken excerpts and passages from the different books and aligned them together according to the same themes.
To assist with this, we have included Daily Reflections at the end of each reading to assist in your study and quiet time.
Our heart in creating this month-long daily devotional was to challenge, encourage, and hopefully bring you into a deeper relationship with Jesus as you realize the importance of the tool of prayer that is available to every one of us.

Whatever else I do, I must pray.
Note the use of the word all at all times, with all prayer, with all perseverance, for all the saints. Note all the strong words: prayer, supplication, perseverance. See the strong expression: keep alert. Paul realized that humans are naturally lazy, especially towards prayer. How seldom we pray things through! How often do the church and the individual get right to the verge of a great blessing in prayer and just then let go, get drowsy, and quit? I wish these words keep alert would burn into our hearts. I wish the whole verse would burn into our hearts.
