ot one feel as if one ought to begin to give up his life, and to
cry day and night to God for souls! In answer to prayer God gives the
power of the Holy Ghost.

HOW TO PRAY.--In deep Stillness of Soul

="My soul is silent unto God: from Him cometh my salvation."=--PS.
lxii. 1.

Prayer has its power in God alone. The nearer a man comes to God
Himself, the deeper he enters into God's will; the more he takes hold of
God, the more power in prayer.

God must reveal Himself. If it please Him to make Himself known, He can
make the heart conscious of His presence. Our posture must be that of
holy reverence, of quiet waiting and adoration.

As your month of intercession passes on, and you feel the greatness of
your work, be still before God. Thus you will get power to pray.

WHAT TO PRAY.--For God's Spirit on the Heathen

="Behold, these shall come from far; and these from the land of
Sinim."=--ISA. xlix. 12.

="Princes shall come out of Egypt; Ethiopia shall haste to stretch
out her hands to God."=--PS. lxviii. 31.

="I the Lord will hasten it in His time."=--ISA. lx. 22.

Pray for the heathen, who are yet without the word. Think of China, with
her three hundred millions--a million a month dying without Christ.
Think of Dark Africa, with its two hundred millions. Think of thirty
millions a year going down into the thick darkness. If Christ gave His
life for them, will you not do so? You can give yourself up to intercede
for them. Just begin, if you have never yet begun, with this simple
monthly school of intercession. The ten minutes you give will make you
feel this is not enough. God's Spirit will draw you on. Persevere,
however feeble you are. Ask God to give you some country or tribe to
pray for. Can anything be nobler than to do as Christ did? Give your
life for the heathen.

HOW TO PRAY.--With Confident Expectation of an Answer

="Call unto Me, and I will answer thee, and will shew thee
