The wonders of prayer : $b A record of well authenticated and wonderful answers to prayer
Prayer
"I wrote you to aid me by your prayers, that my afflicted son, who was
troubled with epilepsy, might be cured. Thanks be to the Heavenly
Father, he is better."
ALMOST LOST.
"Your prayers and mine for my son have been answered. He was almost
lost, on the downward road of intemperance. He has now reformed."
A SITUATION OBTAINED BY PRAYER.
"Yesterday I sent a request that God would give me sustaining grace and
abiding faith, and in his own good time give me a situation where I
might be able to support my family. In that very afternoon, I made a
contract of $1,200 a year. Praise the Lord."
A BOUNTIFUL BLESSING.
"Some time ago I solicited your prayers for a blessing on my services,
and _never, in all my life_ before have I been blessed as since that
time. 'Tis truly wonderful; it has seemed as if I must have become some
one else, and that it could not longer be me speaking with such
boldness, and apparent success. Bless the Lord, O my soul, and all that
is within me, bless his holy name."
SAVED FROM THE COMPANY OF A BAD LOVER.
"A week ago I begged you to pray for my daughter, who had given her
heart to an unworthy man, praying that God might guide her to see him as
he is, and turn her love from him. She is a child of God. In answer, God
has caused a rupture between them."
AWAY FROM HOME, BUT NOT AWAY FROM GOD.
"Some weeks since I sent in a request for prayer for my sons who had
fallen victims to intemperance and vice. My heart rejoices to-day in the
hope that it has.
"Two who left home, and had gone to distant cities to seek employment,
have written me to pray that they may be able to forsake sin in all its
forms, and come to Christ and be Christians. One of them was skeptical
when he left home. The one remaining at home has resolved to quit
drinking."
GOD ALWAYS ANSWERS BELIEVING PRAYER.
"Your prayers asked on several occasions have all been graciously
answered. Return thanks unto the Lord that sendeth mercy."
THE HARDEST HEART YIELDS AT LAST.
"Several years since your prayers were solicited in behalf of one who
seemed given over to hardness of heart and reprobacy of mind. Since that
time there has been some reform in his life. God only knows how far
those prayers have been answered in restraining grace. Last week he said
to the friend who had solicited your prayers for him, 'I wish you would
ask Fulton Street prayer-meeting to pray again for me. _I believe it did
me good._'"
UP FROM THE LOWEST DEPTHS.
"One year ago I wrote you respecting prayer for my husband. He has since
been reclaimed from the lowest depths of a drunkard's life, and is now a
member of the Christian church. Thanks be to God, the giver of all
good."
SAVED AND HONORED.
