Summary "The Works of the Rev. John Wesley, Vol. 07 (of 32)" by John Wesley is a collection of spiritual writings likely composed during the 18th century. This volume continues Wesley's exploration of Christian theology, focusing on the nature of prayer, the relationship between humanity and God, and the call to spiritual awakening and transformation. It serves as both a theological guide and a call to deeper spiritual life for its readers. At the start of this work, Wesley discusses the state of humanity as “asleep” to the spiritual truths of existence, emphasizing that life should be an earnest pursuit of divine communion rather than a distraction with worldly cares. He argues that the essence of salvation and true fulfillment lies in establishing a continuous sense of prayer and desire for God’s presence within oneself. Wesley introduces dialogues that highlight the struggle between worldly desires and the spiritual yearnings of the soul, encouraging readers to awaken to their spiritual potential and the transformative power of Christ. Through compelling imagery and lessons, he urges individuals to seek a genuine relationship with God characterized by humility and a fervent spirit of prayer.
