About this ebook

Private prayer - how can a Christian live without it? This may be a question very easy to answer to. How about this one: What can a Christian obtain by his prayers? Or, maybe, what can a Christian obtain by his private prayers when that Christian believes in a sovereign God, in a sovereign application of the providence of God?

The Puritan Thomas Brooks defines what private or closet prayer is, identifies its boundaries, and provides biblical answers to a mountain of questions and objections to private prayer and how a Christian can use it as a key to open the heaven, to obtain the answer from God. Private Prayer is not just another book on prayer, it has all the ingredients to rekindle your devotional life: sound doctrinal foundations, devotional warmth, Christ-centered content, and even evangelistic thrust.

This book was originally published in 1665. This edition has been proofread, typeset for eBook readers, and lightly updated for modern readers.
