pHistory proves that much prayer results in much blessing; and little prayer, little blessing. John Wesley was instrumental in changing the spiritual climate of Britain. In the 18th Century, his open air preaches gathered enormous crowds, with many encountering the person of Jesus for the first time. His efforts founded the Methodist movement, which has since spread worldwide. All without the help of ticket promoters, cars, phones, TV appearances, anything. His fuel: prayer. He said, lsquo;I have so much to do that I must spend several hours in prayer before I am able to do it.rsquo; Much prayer, much blessing.br /

Over five-hundred years ago, a little known German monk lost patience with a greedy and ungodly Church. His bullet-pointed criticisms spread across Europe and ignited the Reformation, a major historical turning point for getting the Church back on track. Martin Lutherrsquo;s secret was this. lsquo;Prayer is the most important thing in my life. If I should neglect prayer for a single day, I should lose a great deal of the fire of faith.rsquo; Much prayer, much blessing. A teeny Albanian nun became one of the most beloved and inspirational women of the last century for her work in the slums of Calcutta. Her secret to endurance, lsquo;Prayer enlarges the heart until it is capable of containing Godrsquo;s gift of Himself.rsquo; Much prayer, much blessing.br /
