INTRODUCTION

This little book has been prepared with the view of rousing Christians to some right sense of the solemn duty, of the high privilege, and of the wonderful power of intercession. It seeks to point out what a place incercession has in God’s plan for the extension of His Kingdom, and for the strengthening of the life of His children so that they may receive from Him the heavenly blessings He has to bestow, and then go forth to impart them to the world around. The Dutch original has been found helpful in encouraging Christians to realise their high calling, and in helping them to take their place among the Lord’s remembrancers who call upon Him day and night. This translation is issued with the hope and prayer that it may be used in Bible-Classes and Prayer Meetings to foster that spirit of devotion and prayer which is so essential to the Christian life.
