Publisher's Synopsis
"Pray ye." - Matt. 9: 38. The Word of the Father is a call to Prayer. Everywhere in His Word God calls His children to the prayer life. "Ask, and ye shall receive." "And He spake a parable unto them that men ought always to pray and not to faint." "Pray, that ye enter not into temptation." "Enter into thy closet, shut the door and pray to thy Father." "After this manner therefore pray ye." "Pray ye the Lord of the Harvest." "Pray without ceasing." "Brethren, pray for us." "I will therefore that men pray." "Is any afflicted, let him pray." The example of the Son is a Call to Prayer. Christ's earthly life was one of unceasing prayer. He prayed at His baptism. He prayed before sending out His disciples. He prayed at the grave of Lazarus. He prayed for Peter that his faith might not fail He prayed on the Mount of Transfiguration. He prayed when they would have made Him King. He prayed at the last supper. He prayed in Gethsemane. He prayed on the cross for His enemies.
