THE FULTON ST. PRAYER MEETING.

ANSWERS TO PRAYER FROM ITS HISTORY, RECORDS AND CORRESPONDENCE.

The following Incidents of Prayer and the remarkable Answers, have been obtained from the records of the Fulton Street Prayer Meeting in New York City.  They include both facts which have been related by speakers in their daily meetings, or furnished from the letters of those who have solicited Prayer and received the Answer to their Faith.

They are of the utmost diversity of subjects, literally including the “all things” of the Bible, and temporal as well as spiritual interests.

Numerous as the incidents are, which we here give, still they cover only one-sixtieth part of the whole Record of the Blessed Meeting.

History can never tell of the wonders done in Answer to the Prayers of these trusting ones; but Faith can rejoice, for here is fulfilled daily those cheerful Promises of the Lord:  “If ye abide in me and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.”  “Ask and receive, that your joy may be full.”

SAVED FROM A LIFE OF DEGRADATION.

“Your prayers for my husband have been answered; on the very day I wished your prayers for him, and before the hour of prayer had expired” he came into the house, and said, ‘I am going to do better.’  He had not been home before for several weeks.  He was a profane, hard-drinking man.  He has since joined the church.  ’All hail the power of Jesus’ name.’”

RECOVERY OF AN INVALID.

“One year ago, the prayers of this meeting were asked for an invalid who had years of intense suffering before her, unless soon relieved.  Prayers were offered for her.  Now we would like to acknowledge the loving-kindness and tender mercy of our God, for, since that time, she has slowly but steadily improved, even under most trying and unfavorable circumstances, and-has now recovered comparative strength.”

RELIEF IN BUSINESS.

“None of those who trust in Him shall be made desolate.”

“Some three weeks ago, I wrote you, stating that my business had been a failure, and asked your prayers that God, in His mercy, would point out a way for me to provide for my family. The clouds grew thicker and blacker, but the more earnest were my prayers. Last Saturday the Lord came to my rescue, and provided me with the necessities of life, and to-day I wish you to join with me in thanksgiving to Almighty God for these favors;—­’For He is good; His mercy endureth forever.’”
