Essentials of prayer by Edward M. Bounds
"Essentials of Prayer" by Edward M. Bounds is a religious treatise written in the early 20th century. The work is centered around the importance and practice of prayer in the life of a believer, emphasizing that prayer is a comprehensive activity involving the whole being—mind, soul, and body. The author aims to guide readers towards a deeper understanding of prayer's significance and its impact on one's spiritual life. At the start of
the book, the author discusses the necessity of engaging the entire person in prayer, asserting that true prayer requires complete commitment from the heart, mind, and body. Bounds uses examples from both historical figures and spiritual teachings to illustrate how a wholehearted approach to prayer can lead to profound spiritual benefits. He sets the stage for a detailed exploration of various aspects of prayer, such as its relationship with humility, devotion, and the challenges of life, establishing that mastery of prayer is essential for a fully realized Christian existence.
