E. M. Bounds, one of the most prolific and powerful writers on prayer said, "Men and women are needed whose prayers will give to the world the utmost power of God; who will make His promises to blossom with rich and full results. God is waiting to hear us and challenges us to bring Him to do this thing by our praying." A Treasury of Prayer is the best of seven books on prayer by E. M. Bounds in a single volume. Pursue prayer "with an energy that never tires, a persistency which will not be denied, and a courage that never fails."
