About This Book

A practical examination of prayer that considers whether divine responses favor believers, the role of moral purity and spiritual harmony in perceiving answers, and the subconscious states that produce visions or assurance. It addresses paradoxes of conflicting petitions and the limits of human reason about divine action, offers experiential and scriptural guidance on conditions for effective prayer—surrender, forgiveness, love, and truthfulness—and includes testimonies and reflections on using Scripture in prayer. The work closes by restating confidence in God, the reality of answered prayer, and the possibility of cultivating a receptive spiritual life.
