James H. Smith’s Our Faithful God: Answers to Prayer is an inspiring collection of testimonies that demonstrate the power of prayer in the lives of those who follow Jesus. This nineteenth century text, which is being republished for a new generation of readers, showcases the diverse ways in which God answers prayer and provides guidance, grace, and blessings both in everyday situations and in times of great need. From stories of unsaved loved ones finding salvation, to preachers receiving the strength and courage to share the gospel, to individuals witnessing the provision of basic needs-even Christmas presents for children, this book is a testament to the unwavering faithfulness and kindness of God. Whether you are seeking guidance, comfort, or simply a reminder of God’s love and presence in your life, you’ll find this book a timeless and invaluable companion.
Published during a time that saw many sentimental books on answered prayer, Smith’s book is more down-to-earth and contains verified testimonies of answered prayer from both ordinary and well-known Christians. The book was mentioned by name in Mary Slessor’s biography, and contains stories from George Müller, Hudson Taylor, Dr. Baedeker, Arthur T. Pierson, C. H. Spurgeon, D. L. Moody, Jacob Chamberlain, Grace Stott, and dozens more.
