Books on prayer from a Christian perspective will challenge and help to ignite a passion for prayer in your life and deepen your walk with God.

Have you ever really considered what prayer is and why you pray? Do you understand just how your prayer impacts your life?

Joyce unravels the mystery of talking with God by explaining and exploring the different types of prayer:

• praise, worship, and thanksgiving
• consecration and commitment
• petition and perseverance
• intercession
• prayers of agreement.

Prayer is powerful, so if you want power in your life, over your circumstances, in building great relationships, in order to succeed-pray! When we need prayer most, Joyce shows us how to unleash its power.

Intimate conversations with God often focus on immediate needs, concern for others, and direction regarding His will, but praise requires believers to look beyond themselves and their circumstances and place their attention solely on God. Stormie shares personal stories, biblical truths, and practical guiding principles to reveal the wonders that take place when Christians offer praise in the middle of difficulties, sorrow, fear, and, yes, abundance and joy.

Study questions are included in each chapter, making The Prayer That Changes Everything perfect for personal application or group discussions.

Even before she became a Christian, Stormie Omartian prayed, “God, if you have a will for my life, I need to know what it is and what to do about it.” In the months that followed, God answered her in ways that she didn’t believe possible. As God unfolded His plan for her life, she began to understand that she had a purpose. She learned what it meant to live in God's will, and in this book she shares that with other people.

Praying God's Will for your Life is about a way of life and a heart attitude that are God’s will for everyone who knows Him. That way of life encompasses three important components: An Intimate Relationship with God, A Solid Foundation in God’s Truth, and a Commitment to Obedience.

How do Christians learn to practice 2 Corinthians 10: 3-5, "tearing down strongholds by captivating our minds with the knowledge of God"? Beth Moore teaches that to be set free from each and every stronghold which claims our lives, we have to replace it with the mind of Christ and fervent daily prayer. Praying God's Word is a topical prayer guide addressing fourteen strongholds and what Scripture reveals about each issue. The Scriptures are presented in prayer form to be incorporated into the daily prayer life as a way of letting God's Word, through prayer, help you overcome the strongholds of bitterness, anger, unforgiveness, and other areas as well.
