Lots of Good Info on Prayer

^"Because of Christ and our faith in him, we can now come boldly and confidently into God’s presence."

Ephesians 3:12 NLT

Do you ever wonder if there is a perfect way to pray that actually gets God's attention? Have you ever prayed and prayed, but felt like the answer never came? Is God really listening?

When should you pray?

What should you pray about?

And where should you pray?

This little book is short, but full of nuggets from God's Word on prayer. Chapters include how to approach God's throne, key prayer ingredients and what Jesus taught on prayer. It is loaded with Scripture on subjects such as: prayers for guidance, forgiveness, protection, and healing, and times of hardship. It also shares many prayers from people in all circles of life: housewives, kings, prophets, apostles, early believers and Jesus himself.
One thing I did notice in this book is that the author uses many different Bible translations to get his point across. If you are looking for an easy read, very good book on prayer, this may be it! I will be keeping this one for my reference library. I am confident it will be coming in handy often. This would also be a nice gift.

*I received this book from Bethany House for the purpose of review.*
