Here are the files for the book The Hidden Life of Prayer by David McIntyre.
Title: The Hidden Life of Prayer
Author: McIntyre, David
Description: David McIntyre (1859-1938) became Principal of the Bible Training Institute in Glasgow, Scotland in 1913 and authored several books. In The Hidden Life of Prayer he draws on experiences of people like Luther, Spurgeon, Muller, Wesley and others to press the case for a deeper commitment to prayer. His advice will be a catalyst to a deeper and more effective prayer life.

Recommendations from the back cover:
"God brings books at their appointed times. The Hidden Life of Prayer arrived late but well-timed. This little jewel-strewn tapestry has done for me at sixty-four what Bounds' Power through Prayer did at thirty-four. I could be ashamed that I need inspiration for the highest privilege. But I choose to be thankful."
John Piper
"I have read The Hidden Life of Prayer again and again since Westminster Seminary in Philadelphia first gave it to me when I visited there as a prospective student forty years ago. Every time I read this book, the Lord uses it to deepen my prayer life and encourage my faith. I strongly recommend it!"
Wayne Grudem
"The book does not make you afraid of prayer. It has a fragance of Disruption times and the Awakening in the middle of the 19th century, in fact the author was born in that great year of 1859. He later married the daughter of Andrew Bonar and that warm piety and close walk with God characterizes this, McIntyre's best book"
