Andrew Murray was born in Graaff Reinet, South Africa. He received his initial education at Aberdeen in Scotland, and remained there until he obtained his master's degree in 1845. From there, he went to the University of Utrecht where he studied theology. He was ordained by the Hague Committee of the Dutch Reformed Church on 9 May 1848 and returned to South Africa.
Andrew pastored churches in Bloemfontein, Worcester, Cape Town and Wellington, in South Africa. He was a champion of the South African Revival of 1860, and founded the Africa Evangelical Fellowship.
He died on 18 January 1917, four months before his eighty-ninth birthday.
A timeless devotional that will assist every believer in surrendering to Christ. Full of and thought provoking insight, it is a wonderful devotional. Based upon the sermons by Andrew Murray, it is an excellent work especially suited for individual study and reflection or group bible study.
