E.M. Bounds was a clergyman of the Methodist Episcopal Church South. Bounds authored many books, most of which focused on the subject of prayer. "As breathing is a physical reality to us so prayer was a reality for Bounds. He took the command, 'Pray without ceasing' almost as literally as animate nature takes the law of the reflex nervous system, which controls our breathing." -Claude Chilton, Jr., in the Foreword to Necessity of Prayer .Included in this book:Praying Saints of the Old Testament; Abraham, the Man of Prayer; Moses, the Mighty Intercessor; Elijah, the Praying Prophet; Hezekiah, the Praying King; Ezra, the Praying Reformer; Nehemiah, the Praying Builder; Samuel, the Child of Prayer; Daniel, the Praying Captive; Faith of Sinners in Prayer; Paul, the Teacher of Prayer; Paul and His Praying Paul and His Requests for PrayerThis book looks at how the greatest Biblical prophets prayed to God
