To most People, Prayer is a mystery. To Andrew Murray, prayer was a key to unlock the doors to a rich, ioyous life. This book may be your Personal classroom in this School of Prayer.

It is under a deep impression that the place and power of prayer in the Christian life is too little understood that this book has been written. I feel sure that as long as we look on prayer chiefly as the means of maintaining our own Christian life, we shall not know fully what it is meant to be.

ASK YOURSELF THESE QUESTIONS:
—Have I ever really prayed to God?
—Can I point to a single definite instance where know God answered my prayer?
—Do I know What it is to havc daily answers to prayer?
—Have I dared to bc definite with God, or are my prayers gencrally unanswered?

Dutch Reformed pastor Andrew Murray probes Scripture and the life of Christ in order to teach us how to pray effectually. He asks us to enroll in a new kind of academy. “Jesus has opened a school, in which He trains His redeemed ones, who specially desire it, to have power in prayer. Shall we not enter it with the petition, Lord! It is just this we need to be taught! O teach us to pray.” With the Redeemer as our headmaster, Murray gently instructs us on how to experience a thriving relationship with Jesus Christ through the means of prayer.About the author:
Andrew Murray (1828-1917) was a South-African Dutch Reformed leader, author of devotional writings. Born in Cape Town, South Africa, Murray became a noted missionary leader. He was one of the chief promoters of the call to missions in South Africa. This led to the Dutch Reformed Church missions to blacks in the Transvaal and Malawi. Apart from his evangelistic tours in South Africa, he spoke at the Keswick and Northfield Conventions in 1895, making a great impression. upon his British and American audiences. For his contribution to world missions he was given an honorary doctorate by the universities of Aberdeen (1898) and Cape of Good Hope (1907). Murray is best known today for his devotional writings, which place great emphasis on the need for a rich, personal devotional life. Many of his 240 publications explain in how he saw this devotion and its outworking in the life of the Christian. Several of his books have become devotional classics. Among these are Abide in Christ, Absolute Surrender, With Christ in the School of Prayer, The Spirit of Christ and Waiting on God. With Christ in the School of Prayer is one of Murray’s few full length books, and it’s meant to explain that prayer is not a chore or task within faith. Prayer is supposed to be an actual way of communing with God that lifts your spirits.
