About this ebook

Prayer is about being sensitive to the leading of God’s Spirit and our brothers and sisters around us in a group situation.

The content of this book is aimed at arriving at a place where a church groups will be in one accord when operating in the field of Evangelism. But this field of study can lend itself to unlimited areas of concern in our collective church family.

The aim of this study is to look at how a group of people coming together in pray can be effective in making supplication and requests to God.

Ratings and reviews

When presenting a work on unity in a systematic way for any field of endeavour of mankind, we are faced with a difficulty, because as we present the topic and in this case with this book we are talking about group prayer. I know that someone reading this will find the methodology and use it without the leading of the Holy Spirit. This however is not my desire. I understand that a method is a good way to start, but it is only half of the picture. We need to have the knowledge of the method with the leading of the Holy Spirit to achieve a full measure. Prayer is about being sensitive to the leading of God’s Spirit and our brothers and sisters around us in a group situation.

About the author

Dr. Ian Traill D.Min is a missionary to China where he has been for the past 15 years.

Arriving in August 2000 to take up a position teaching English at Universities and Colleges, working as a "tentmakers" ministry, he has been conducting Bible classes and training people in the area of leadership with the view of them starting their own home church. Ian has a strong desire to bring teaching to the people, thus he has written many books.

A missionary is one who is sent to cross over geographic and cross-cultural boundaries to plant the Word of God and a local church, thus establishing God’s culture in a new location. The Gospel of John clearly portrays Jesus as fulfilling the ministry of a missionary sent from God (John 3:17-34, 4:34, 5:23, 5:36-38, 6:29-57, 7:16-33, 8:16-42, 9:4, 10:36, 11:42, 12:44-49, and13:20). Jesus Christ came as a missionary to this world to save us, but non-Christians reading His story in a newspaper at that time, would say that He was a failure. We, of course, are aware He did not fail. It is because of His mission that we are here today, and it was through someone else that we heard about Jesus too. Faith comes by hearing the Word, but if there is no preacher how can people hear? So we are going to all nations.
