power in the Church, for the exaltation of Christ and the blessing of
souls."

God has one promise to and through His exalted Son; our Lord has one
gift to His Church; the Church has one need; all prayer unites in the
one petition--the power of the Holy Spirit. Make it your one prayer.

HOW TO PRAY.--As a Child asks a Father

="If a son ask bread of any of you that is a father, will he give
him a stone? How much more shall your Heavenly Father give the Holy
Spirit to them that ask Him?"=--LUKE xi. 11, 13.

Ask as simply and trustfully as a child asks bread. You can do this
because ="God hath sent forth the Spirit of His Son into your heart,
crying, Abba, Father."= This Spirit is in you to give you childlike
confidence. In the faith of His praying in you, ask for the power of
that holy Spirit everywhere. Mention places or circles where you
specially ask it to be seen.

world-wide prayer."

Every child of God has the Holy Spirit in him to pray. God waits to give
the Spirit in full measure. Ask for yourself, and all who join, the
outpouring of the Spirit of Supplication. Ask it for your own prayer
circle.

HOW TO PRAY.--In the Spirit

="With all prayer and supplication, praying at all seasons in the
Spirit."=--EPH. vi. 18.

="Praying in the Holy Spirit."=--JUDE 20.

Our Lord gave His disciples on His resurrection day the Holy Spirit to
enable them to wait for the full outpouring on the day of Pentecost. It
is only in the power of the Spirit already in us, acknowledged and
yielded to, that we can pr
