PRAYER MEETING TOPIC FOR WEEK
BEGINNING SEPT. 4,
Prayer and its Answers.

Prayer and its Answers.
1t is a great comfort that upon
those who ask him the Father is so
ready TO bestow the Spirit, who
will himself guide us IN the requests
that we should make. The thought
of some of the petitions offered by
men of God is enough to make us
realize the need of such guidance.
Moses asking God to send another
to do his work, Elijah desiring
that his life might be taken from
him, illustrate the unwise requests
that the best of men are liable to
make. A wisdom better than that
granted to Solomon may be i'm
parted to one who Is filled with the
Holy Spirit; and ali earnest petit
ton to be so filled may well be
foremost in our prayers for personal
blessing.
A prayer should be the presenta-
ton of Gods promise Endorsed by
your personal faith You
so believe in God that you present
the promise, obtain the blessing,
and 60 about your Masters bust
ness. Somtimes flood of words
only means excusing unbelief. The
prayers OF the Bible are nearly all
short ones; they are short and
strong. The exceptions are found
in places of peculiar difficulty g.
AS a general rule, faith presents its
prayers, gets its answer, and goes
on It's way reiolclng.-C. II. Spur
geor.
BREATHISGS.
Breathe into your souls the pure
Spirit of God, and your prayers
will become like natural exhala-
tons, and only make room for
more of the divine.
AS you become more active in
the service of the Master, you will
have to breathe faster. Frequent
renewals of vitality are necessary to
great exertion.
y long, deep breath indicates the
spirituality Of your nature. Only
those who truly love God are in
chned to take large draughts of
of his grace.
The lungs and the heart are in
sympathetic relationship. Short
breathed Christians are generally
faint-hearted.
Keep in pure atmosphere. You
can always tell when child of
God has been in bad company.
The glow leaves his cheek. Bad
blood generally follows foul breath
ing.
SUGGESTIONS TO THE LEADER.
This weeks topic, like the topic
for January "a, is to stimulate
PRAYER. Twice year is not too Of
ten to consider the subject.
Now is good time to inaug-
urate, if you have not already IN
augurated, the plan of holding a
brief prayer service before the
meeting, in which the leader and
prayer-meeting committee pray
for Gods blessing on the hour to
follow. Try 1t, and learn It's
blessedness and power.
1t is helpful, occasionally, to
specify the subject of prayers. Let
the leader call for a series Of pray.

branches, for missions, for the So

the town and nation, for individual
blessings, for praise and thanks.
giving, for penitence.
FOR ANSWER IN THE MEETING.
Why will not God send US all
blessings without prayer?
