Christians have altered the course of history and governments by emphasizing biblical methods of prayer and fasting.
Derek Prince recounts from personal experience how history was shaped through prayer during the Second World War in North Africa, the birth of the State of Israel, the end of the Stalin Era, and the independence of Kenya, East Africa.
The book begins in its introduction with a transcript of "A Proclamation for a Day of Fasting and Prayer by the President of the Unites States, Abraham Lincoln" A quote from this proclamation will set the stage for the core of the book:
"We have been the recipients of the choicest bounties of Heaven. We have been preserved in peace and prosperity. We have grown in numbers, wealth and power as no other nation has ever grown. But we have forgotten God. Intoxicated by unbroken success, we have become too self- sufficient to feel the necessity of redeeming grace, too proud to pray to the God who made us!"
Learn how you too can implement change in your family, church, locale, country, and the world through these two powerful weapons. Prayer and fasting.
