Prevailing Prayer: What Hinders It? by Dwight L. Moody (1837 - 1899).

This project is now complete. All audio files can be found on our catalog page: https://librivox.org/prevailing-prayer-by-dwight-l-moody/
The two first and essential means of grace are the Word of God and Prayer. By these comes conversion; for we are born again by the Word of God, which liveth and abideth forever; and whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.<br><br>By these also we grow; for we are exhorted to desire the sincere milk of the Word that we may grow thereby, and we cannot grow in grace and in the knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ except we also speak to Him in Prayer.<br><br>It is by the Word that the Father sanctifies us; but we are also bidden to watch and pray, lest we enter into temptation.<br><br>These two means of grace must be used in their right proportion. If we read the Word and do not pray, we may become puffed up with knowledge, without the love that buildeth up. If we pray without reading the Word, we shall be ignorant of the mind and will of God, and become mystical and fanatical, and liable to be blown about by every wind of doctrine.<br><br>The following chapters relate especially to Prayer; but in order that our prayers may be for such things as are according to the will of God, they must be based upon the revelation of His own will to us; for of Him, and through Him, and to Him are all things; and it is only by hearing His Word, in which we learn His purposes toward us and towards the world, that we can pray acceptably, praying in the Holy Ghost, asking those things which are pleasing in His sight.<br><br>These Addresses are not to be regarded as exhaustive, but suggestive. This great subject has been the theme of Prophets and Apostles, and of all good men in all ages of the world; and my desire in sending forth this little volume is to encourage God’s children to seek by prayer “to move the Arm that moves the world. (D. L. Moody) ( )

    .
  2. Type of proof-listening required (Note: please read the PL FAQ): standard
    .
    IMPORTANT - soloist, please note: in order to limit the amount of languishing projects (and hence the amount of files on our hard-pressed server), we ask that you post an update at least once a month in your project thread, even if you haven't managed to record anything. If we don't hear from you for three months, your project may be opened up to a group project if a Book Coordinator is found. Files you have completed will be used in this project. If you haven't recorded anything yet, your project will be removed from the forum (contact any admin to see if it can be re-instated).

    Please don't download or listen to files belonging to projects in process (unless you are the BC or PL). Our servers are not set up to handle the greater volume of traffic. Please wait until the project has been completed. Thanks!

Hmmm. Listening to chapter 3 tonight and I realize that my esses are getting mushy. I'll need to focus on that going forward. I'm not reading as much these days, and so I feel out of practice in getting a clear enunciation and a rhythm that brings out the message ... it's not terrible, but not my best ...

Don't be so hard on yourself. All is very nice, though I know what you mean about getting out of practice. I have to really push myself to speak clearly recently. Mine comes from fatigue, though.

Oh my. Tomorrow, I hope. Now it's time for my listening to the police radio. (Can you believe I relax that way! What an old man, I am.)
