Early church leaders like Luther, Wesley, Finney and Moody were filled and refilled with the Holy Spirit. Prayer like theirs was the powerful key to every revival throughout Christian history. Whether you're an ordained minister, a stay-at-home mom, or a new Christian, God can work through you.<br /><br /> Join Yonggi Cho and Wayde Goodall in <i>Prayer</i>, the story of Pastor Cho's personal life and successful ministry.<br /><br /> Readers will: <ul><li>understand the different types of prayer, </li><li>value the importance of prayer, </li><li>learn why, how, and when to pray, </li><li>cultivate a lifestyle of prayer, and</li><li>receive new revelations of how to listen to the Holy Spirit.</li></ul>Hear the secrets God desires to share with you and be immersed in His profound love.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><b>Foreword: </b><br /> Dr. A.T. Pierson, renowned Bible teacher with evangelist Dwight L. Moody and successor to the pulpit of Charles Spurgeon, wrote, "Generally, if not uniformly, prayer is both starting point and goal to every moment in which are the elements of permanent progress. Whenever the church is aroused and the world's wickedness arrested, somebody has been praying." Moody added, "Every great movement of God can be traced to a kneeling figure."<br /> Dr. Yonggi Cho, on his knees, is one of the first pictures that comes to my mind when I read those words of Pierson and Moody. When one looks at the whole of church history and the human instruments God has used to advance Christ's kingdom, some earthly vessels tower above others. They have been, first and foremost, men and women of prayer.<br /> I had the joy of first encountering Yonggi Cho and hearing him preach when I was a twenty-one-year-old youth pastor in Wisconsin. Ours was the first church Dr. Cho visited in America just several years after his founding of what is today the Yoido Full Gospel Church, a congregation of hundreds of thousands of believers, in Seoul, Korea. Interestingly, that church began appropriately in a tent, which reminded me of Moses and the Tent of Meeting, where God's glory cloud would come when Moses would enter. God's glory did come--and in waves--inside Yonggi Cho's tent. The rest is history. <br /> Fewer than ten minutes into Cho's Sunday morning message, I knew I was hearing a man of prayer. You could sense it in every syllable of this young Korean pastor's less than polished English. Of course, we heard far more than his words; we heard his heart. What an extraordinary faith deposit was invested in my heart that morning! Soon I found myself spending late evenings and Saturday mornings prostrate on some wooden pallets in the church's furnace room, where I knew no one would disturb me. A hunger for Jesus and a passion for the lost always consumed my prayer. As I look back over some fifty-three years of ministry since, I believe seeds of faith were planted in my heart during that Sunday morning message.<br /> Over the years, I would retell the story of my first encounter with a true man of prayer in hundreds of settings, where I would teach what became the <i>Change the World School of</i><i>Prayer</i>--a multi-hour study with more than three million students impacted worldwide. Only recently, some five decades after that special morning, did I have the joy of preaching and leading a Wednesday morning prayer meeting at Yoido Gospel Church in Seoul. I was amazed that every single seat in that gigantic auditorium was filled with a saint, ready to cry out to God for revival and global awakening. I was witnessing the fruit of a praying leader who has lived a life of fervent, passionate prayer for sixty years of ministry.<br /> At our ministry's headquarters for Every Home for Christ in Colorado Springs, Colorado, one can also see the fruit of the seeds of Dr. Cho's ministry. We've imported fifty tons of Jerusalem stone from Israel to build a "Wall of Prayer" (Isaiah 62:6-7) with numerous prayer grottos named after the tribes of Israel--an inspiration I can trace to my own experience in the prayer grottos on Dr. Cho's Prayer Mountain in Seoul back in 1984. <br /> It is understandable why I so strongly believe God has a message for believers all over the world in <i>Prayer: Key to Revival</i>, which contains Dr. Cho's lifelong prayer insights and is coauthored by Dr. Wayde Goodall, a brother also mentored by Yonggi Cho. I don't know if I've ever read a book that covers more of the practical elements of effective prayer than <i>Prayer.</i> Not only does the intercessor find in these pages evidence of prayer's impact over the centuries through great people of prayer and faith, but there are also lessons to equip and empower the reader to pursue greater heights of effectual prayer than he or she may have ever imagined.<br /> The authors are also quick to emphasize that God has no favorite children when it comes to prayer. As I too have emphasized over the years, prayer is the divine equalizer. Some preach. Some teach. Some sing. But all can pray. Yes, you can pray like Peter, Paul, or even Dr. Cho! Of course, like any skill or endeavor, prayer can be cultivated; it <i>must</i> be cultivated. The value of resources like <i>Prayer</i> is both the inspiration and insight they provide in this process of cultivation. They equip and encourage believers to remain faithful and persevere.<br /> I welcome you to turn the page and begin your fresh pursuit of the power of prayer. It could very well be your key to personal revival. You won't be disappointed.<br /><br /><b>Dick Eastman</b><br /> International President of Every Home for Christ<br /> President of America's National Prayer Committee<br><br><i>Prayer: Key to Revival </i>offers sound biblical principles and personal stories that will motivate you to devote yourself to prayer.<br /><b>- Doug Clay</b>, author and general superintendent of Assemblies of God<br /> <br /> Dr. Cho's prayer life is the most scriptural, consistent prayer life I have ever known. Let your life be changed by reading this powerful book on prayer.<br /> -<b> Larry Stockstill</b>, author, pastor, and executive director of Surge Project<br /> <br /><i>Prayer</i> encourages the church to continue its passionate pursuit of a powerful prayer life. I'm personally encouraged by the call to pray more effectively today and embrace the commitment of a life devoted to talking to Jesus.<br /><b>- Edmound Teo</b>, senior pastor of International Christian Assembly, Hong Kong<br /> <br /><i>Prayer</i> will bring a fresh touch of the Holy Spirit to everyone who will practice its teaching.<br /><b>- Dr. Bob Rodgers</b>, senior pastor of Evangel World Prayer Center, Louisville, Kentucky<br /> <br /> No one in the world taught me the principles and the power of prayer like the life and example of Dr. Yonggi Cho. I am thankful for this book and its transformational teaching, which is sure to speak faith and power into a new generation of believers and open their eyes to the world-changing secrets of prayer.<br /><b> - Joakim Lundqvist</b>, pastor of Word of Life Church, Sweden, and board member of Church Growth International<br /> <br /> In 1984, I had the privilege of attending Yoido Full Gospel Church in Seoul, Korea pastored by Dr. Yonggi Cho. The intensity with which the people prayed in the worship service moved me deeply. I realized how little the western church prays when I saw thousands of people pray all night, rise early for morning prayer time, and continue to fast and pray at Prayer Mountain. Prayer has since become the top priority at King's Cathedral and Chapels. It is the basis for fulfilling the visions God has given us as a church. I thank God for Dr. Cho's teaching on prayer, but more than anything, I rejoice that the teachings were modeled personally by the members of the Yoido Full Gospel Church, thus fulfilling Jesus' word: "My house will be a house of prayer." Get ready to have your prayer life energized by reading this book.<br /><b>- Dr. James Marocco</b>, senior pastor, King's Cathedral and Chapels<br /> <br /> This book will stir you to a greater capacity and desire to pray. The church needs this book at this time and season to weep and travail for our nations and bring the life of the gospel of Jesus Christ to a lost and dying world. The contents of Dr. Cho's and Dr. Goodall's book covers not only the many types of prayer, but it also gives great direction on the boundaries of the Word of God and how to lean on the Holy Spirit. This book is such a blessing to the body of Christ. May it bring much blessing and inspiration to God's church.<br /><b>- Rev. Margaret Court</b>, senior pastor, Victory Life Centre, Western Australia<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>YONGGI CHO, founder of Yoido Full Gospel Church in Seoul, Korea, convincingly teaches principles in dynamic faith in Jesus Christ and dependence on the Holy Spirit--and through those teachings brings hope in all of life's challenges.<br /><br /> WAYDE GOODALL is passionate to help Christians grow in their faith while understanding life disciplines and principles that encourage life balance and dynamic spiritual growth.
