The Supply of the Spirit

The Supply of the Spirit turns from the foundations of prayer to its content. Drawing on the anointing oil and the incense of the tabernacle, it shows that effective prayer is compounded, not narrated, and teaches the art behind the act of prayer.

Scripture says our weakness is that we don’t know what to pray for as we ought. In this sequel to The Ecosystem of Prayer, the author decodes the tabernacle’s anointing oil and incense as God’s own lesson in prayer. The spices of the oil (myrrh, cinnamon, calamus and cassia) speak of what the Spirit forms in the one who prays. The spices of the incense speak of what our prayers must carry if they are to rise. Through chapters on ascension, the will of God, stature and heavenly transactions, and finally on compounding, salt and fire, the book calls believers to prayer with eternal weight instead of noise.
