PRAYER POWER--HUDSON TAYLOR

 J. Hudson Taylor  (1832-1905) was a British missionary with a call to China. He spent 51 years and founded  China Inland Mission (now OMF) leaving a great impact which laid a foundation which erected a Chinese church that has lasted through the harsh communist years. Christian historian Ruth Tucker gave this summation:   "No other missionary in the nineteen centuries since the Apostle Paul has had a wider vision and has carried out a more systematised plan of evangelising a broad geographical area than Hudson Taylor "

These are his words: "The prayer power has never been tried to its full capacity. If we want to see mighty wonders of divine power and grace wrought in the place of weakness, failure and disappointment, let us answer God's standing challenge,'Call unto Me, and I will answer thee, and show thee great and mighty things which thou knowest not'"
