To Andrew Murray, prayer was more than a means of maintaining the Christian life. He believed prayer was the highest work entrusted to man by God, the root and strength of all our other work in Him. It is only through prayer that the believer taps into the Source of highest power.
Murray discovered that it is Christ who teaches us to pray. The more we abide in Him and grow into His likeness, the more our lives will become like His. Enter into Jesus’ “school of prayer” and you, too, will…
  • Pray with more power and understanding
  • Tap into specific prayers guided by the Holy Spirit
  • See your prayers answered daily
  • Discover how prayer works with fasting
  • Learn to pray with greater boldness
  • Become a powerful intercessor for others 
It was Murray’s heartfelt desire that all Christians would enroll in a personal session With Christ in the School of Prayer.

Editorial Reviews

Review

A myriad of genuinely good books have been written on prayer, one of the best being Andrew Murray’s classic With Christ in the School of Prayer. We would do well to read widely and experience deeply if we desire to know the ways of prayer.
-Richard Foster, author of Celebration of Discipline
 

From the Back Cover

Few books have had as much impact on calling the church to prayer as Andrew Murray's classic, With Christ in the School of Prayer. It was based on the teachings of this book that we named our Change the World Schools of Prayer seminars, which have now touched the lives of believers around the world."I encourage you to saturate yourself in this timeless classic and learn how you can prepare yourself for effective participation in the highest calling Christ has given the Church-the call to intercessory prayer." -Dick Eastman, Founder And Director, Change the World Ministries Sponsoring Change the World Schools of Prayer

5.0 out of 5 stars Not easy reading, but oh so worth every minute!
Reviewed in the United States on January 16, 2024

This book was originally written long ago. It is a series of essays about prayer. The author does not assume that the reader already has basic knowledge about the reasons for different kinds of prayer and the varied responses the reader can expect. Instead he thoroughly explains the basic concepts, and to me, the related advanced theology. I found that I often had to reread some sections and even sentences several times before I felt that I understood them. The print is small, and the format isn’t especially inviting, but so far, about a third of the way through the 31 essays, I keep saying to myself, “Why didn’t anybody ever explain this to me before?” I am finding this content and the time I need to invest into each essay well spent.

With Christ in the School of Prayer is a timely and practical resource for Christian living. It helps one to see Jesus at work with his disciples in the school of prayer. When you feel rejected by people, this book is a spiritual charge for a positive direction.

This book is simple to understand without all the theology. There is a place for theology, but not for prayer. Each chapter is full of useful and thoughtful applications for a strong prayer life. I found that after each reading I needed some time to meditate on each lesson. I really enjoyed the closing prayers included at the end of each chapter.

Well written and a much needed book in the challenging times we are facing now. The power of prayer is not a buzz line and should be taken seriously. For many people including myself there will be times when prayer will be the only thing you will have to depend on.

5.0 out of 5 stars Deep and Challenging to My Thinking
Reviewed in the United States on December 11, 2014
Verified Purchase
This is an excellent book, but you better be ready to read slowly and think very critically. It can be difficult to read, so just slow down a little and really give it thought. I've read it multiple times and I learn more each time. There are 31 three to five page lessons that include sample prayers and a lot of Scripture. He is very specific in his discussion of God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit and ensuring that they are fully integrated into all of the lessons.
The chapter that affected me most is the one titled "After This Manner Pray." This is known as the Lord's Prayer, others call it the Disciple's Prayer because Jesus gives His disciples a simple template for praying.

Our Father, which art in heaven,
Hallowed be thy Name.
Thy Kingdom come.
Thy will be done in earth,
As it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses,
As we forgive them that trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
But deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom,
The power, and the glory,
For ever and ever.
Amen.

Anyone who practices prayer must read Murray’s insights on prayer. He reveals not just a method but the motivation, the glory of God. Whether the reader is a ready and seasoned prayer or a novice, the Divine invitation remains the same. We must enter into our secret place and spend time with our Heavenly Father for His glory alone. Soli Deo Gloria!

It's a hard read; I am 18 and I tried reading it myself and it was difficult and hard to follow with the old english so i decided to ask one of the girls in my church to do it together!

Worked out amazing. Currently going over it slowly one chapter per weekend.

Very eye opening in how Jesus teaches us how to pray and what we ought to pray for.

Be patient with this book and also keep praying as you learn! :) It will help a ton.

I just started reading it now and I can't wait to learn more. So far I highly recommend it if you want to learn more about prayer even its an "older english" writing style. The first chapters challenged me allready a lot so that I had to stop and just pray and think about it. He goes through Jesus teachings of prayers and even looks at passages I wouldn't have thought first think of prayers. One thing he says that Jesus hasn't taught his disciples/ us so much about how to preach (speaking to people) as how to pray (speaking with God). =)

I highly recommend this book to any Christian who desires and hungers to know more, to have a deeper, more intimate relationship with the risen Christ. Andrew Murray in simple expository language walks you through this most important ministry in the faith. Without prayer, to put it simply, His will cannot be done on earth as it is in Heaven. A must read.

Es gibt nicht viele christliche Bücher, die man nicht weiterlesen kann, weil man das Gelesene sofort umsetzen möchte - dieses ist eines davon.
Gut finde ich insbesondere die intensive Bezugnahme auf biblische Aussagen Jesu und die vorgefertigten Gebete am Ende jedes Kapitels.
Schade, dass vorliegendes Buch nicht mehr neu aufgelegt wird.
