The wonders of prayer : $b A record of well authenticated and wonderful answers to prayer
Prayer
"A foreigner without means and friendless tried in vain for ten months
to succeed in finding some employment. He requested your prayers to God,
and _God answered_. In less than eighteen hours a splendid position was
offered to him. He and his wife give thanks, and pray that they may
devote their lives usefully to the cause of God who has been so good to
them."
FOUND EMPLOYMENT.
"God has answered our united prayers, and given employment to his
child."
AN OLD LADY SAVED FROM LITTLE ANNOYANCES.
"Your prayers have been heard and answered in mercy. The old lady has
not been quite so much annoyed. Thank God for some peace for the aged
one, not able to bear what younger people can, that go out into the
world and can find relief. I thank my heavenly Father for his loving-
kindness and tender mercy for those that cry to him in trouble."
INSANITY DISPELLED.
"I sent a petition months ago, for prayers for an insane husband. Your
prayers have been answered. He has rapidly recovered."
RECLAIMED.
"I must ask you to return thanks with me that your prayers have been
answered. An intemperate brother has been reclaimed."
RESTORED TO HEALTH.
"One month since, I requested prayer specially for my own family. My
oldest son, who was then sick, has been restored to his usual health.
'_The prayer of faith hath indeed saved the sick_.'"
TEMPTATIONS REMOVED.
"Some months ago I asked your prayers for a son in college, amid great
temptations. I desire to give thanks that those temptations have been
removed."
THE HEART OF A CLERGYMAN TURNED FROM THOUGHTS OF AMBITION.
"I sent a request to you for a young man, who was called, and eminently
fitted for the ministry, but was tempted, by ambition, not to listen to
the divine call, and obstacles had hedged his way somewhat. After I
requested your prayers in his behalf, this temptation was removed, and
nearly one hundred persons were converted in the church which was under
his care."
A GRATEFUL TRIBUTE.
"For a long time I have been the subject of personal affliction, caused
by _two internal tumors_ of the _worst type_. Speedy death seemed
inevitable; yet there was a little hope that a surgical operation might
possibly remove the difficulty and prolong my day. To this hope I clung,
submitted to the operation, and it was a success. To the earnest prayers
of Christian people is due this grateful acknowledgment."
WAS A PERFECT SLAVE TO LIQUOR.
"Please return _thanks_ to our kind Heavenly Father for this answer to
prayer. All last Winter requests were sent in for a gentleman, a perfect
slave to liquor. Those prayers were answered, and he is attending church
regularly, striving to do what is right to please his Heavenly Master."
ALWAYS ANSWERED.
"Several times in years past I have asked for the prayers of this
meeting, and always found them answered."
CURED OF EPILEPSY.
