"You ask and do not receive, because you ask with wrong motives" (James 4:3). 

What might the right motives be? In Prayer: A Holy Occupation Oswald Chambers shares his heart's desires in prayer to help you: know Jesus better, to discern His will, and to make Christ's will your own.

As the author of the all-time bestselling devotional, My Utmost for His Highest, Chambers brings you a treasure-trove of wisdom and insight.
