About this ebook

Dwight L. Moody believed that the power of the Holy Spirit had been too much overlooked, as though it were not practical. He wrote, "The result is lack of power in testimony and work. If we would work, 'not as one that beats the air," but to some definite purpose, we must have this power from on high. Without this power, our work will be drudgery. With it, it becomes a joyful task, a refreshing service. May God make this book a blessing to many. This is my prayer."

About the author

Dwight Lyman Moody (1837-1899) started life as a successful shoe salesman but became one of the most respected evangelists of the nineteenth century. In his early years, he was known for his highly effective Sunday school ministry and his evangelistic work among soldiers during the Civil War. After Moody's church was destroyed in the Chicago fire, he received a powerful infilling of the Holy Spirit. Newly empowered, he held dynamic meetings in America and Great Britain and founded Moody Bible Institute. When he died, Moody's legacy includes three Christian schools, a Christian publishing business, and a million souls won for Christ.
