The Prayers of Saint Paul
Praying with fervency like the Apostle
Copyright by Peter McArthur 2006

"God wants warm-hearted servants. The Holy Spirit comes as a fire, to dwell in us, we are to be baptized with the Holy Spirit and fire. Fervency is warmth of soul. A phlegmatic temperament is abhorrent to vital experience. If our faith doesn't set us on fire, it is because we have frozen hearts. God dwells in a flame, the Holy Spirit descends in fire. To be absorbed in God's will, to be so greatly in earnest about doing it that our whole being takes fire, is the qualifying condition of the man who would engage in effectual prayer." E. M. Bounds
Chapter 1
An overview of prayer that strives
What follows is a brief overview of the type of prayer that strives, struggles and brings forth an answer. The overriding point in this kind of prayer is not primarily the effort we put into the prayer, but the wondrous grace of God that involves us in His purposes. The result of this, is His mercy poured out as He sees our fervency.
Let us never forget the truth that it is GOD who chooses to answer prayer, solely out of His mercy and grace. We are merely invited partners in the working out of His grand purpose. Sons; yes! Born again from above; yes! Seated in the heavenlies with Christ; yes! But despite all these astonishing truths, it is He who moves and causes prayer to be answered - we are still only invited
and called
. Let's maintain humility in this, and as we rejoice in answered prayer, let HIM receive the glory, not us.
One of the greatest modern writers on prayer, Edward McKendree Bounds, wrote: "Fervourless prayer has no heart in it; it is an empty thing, an unfit vessel. Heart, soul and life must find place in all real praying. Heaven must be made to feel the force of this crying unto God. Paul was a notable example of the man who possessed a fervent spirit of prayer. His petitioning was all-consuming, centred immovably upon the object of his desire, and the God who was able to meet it."
There are times in prayer when a real striving
needs to take place, so that we might
