Ministry Of Intercession 4th Ed.
$17.99Add to cartIf the answer to prayer is so positively promised in scripture, why are there so many unanswered prayers today (often misinterpreted as a “no”)? Scripture teaches us that answer to prayer depends upon certain conditions. Christ spoke of faith, of perseverance, of praying in His name, of praying in the will of God. But all these conditions were summed up in the one central statement: “If ye abide in me and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.” It becomes clear that the power to pray the effectual prayer of faith depends upon the “life.”
Let Andrew Murray show you what it means to live in Christ, and let his challenge for genuine intercessory prayer change your life – and the lives of those you are praying for.

Before Amen : The Power Of A Simple Prayer
$19.99Add to cartWe all pray . . . some.
We pray to stay sober, centered, or solvent. When the lump is deemed malignant. When the money runs out before the month does. When the marriage is falling apart. We pray.
But wouldn’t we like to pray more? Better? Stronger? With more fire, faith, and fervency?
Yet we have kids to feed, bills to pay, deadlines to meet. The calendar pounces on our good intentions like a tiger on a rabbit. And what about our checkered history with prayer? Uncertain words. Unmet expectations. Unanswered requests.
We aren’t the first to struggle with prayer. The first followers of Jesus needed prayer guidance too. In fact, prayer is the only tutorial they ever requested.
And Jesus gave them a prayer. Not a lecture on prayer. Not the doctrine of prayer. He gave them a quotable, repeatable, portable prayer. Couldn’t we use the same?
In Before Amen best-selling author Max Lucado joins readers on a journey to the very heart of biblical prayer, offering hope for doubts and confidence even for prayer wimps. Distilling prayers in the Bible down to one pocket-sized prayer, Max reminds readers that prayer is not a privilege for the pious nor the art of a chosen few. Prayer is simply a heartfelt conversation between God and his child. Let the conversation begin.

Prayer : Does It Make Any Difference
$22.99Add to cartIn his most powerful book since What’s So Amazing About Grace? and The Jesus I Never Knew, Philip Yancey explores the intimate place where God and humans meet in Prayer. Polls reveal that 90 percent of people pray. Yet prayer, which should be the most nourishing and uplifting time of the believer’s day, can also be frustrating, confusing, and fraught with mystery. Writing as a fellow pilgrim, Yancey probes such questions as: -Is God listening? -Why should God care about me? -If God knows everything, what’s the point of prayer? -Why do answers to prayer seem so inconsistent? -Why does God sometimes seem close and sometimes seem far away? -How can I make prayer more satisfying? Yancey tackles the tough questions and in the process comes up with a fresh new approach to this timeless topic. “I have learned to pray as a privilege, not a duty,” he says, and he invites you to join him on this all-important journey.

Moving Mountains Study Guide (Student/Study Guide)
$14.99Add to cartIn Luke 11:1, the disciples asked Jesus, “Teach us to pray!” Most of us want to know more about how prayer works. While we are used to offering up prayers, we wonder if we are praying in the most effective way or if we are approaching the throne of God in the “right” way. We ask ourselves:
*How do I listen for God?
*How do I pray for healing?
*How do I pray when I am under spiritual attack?
*How do I pray to break through strongholds of habitual sin?
*How do I pray for protection?
*How do I pray for my lost friends and family?In The Way It All Works, bestselling author John Eldredge shows how we labor under the misconception that prayer is asking God to intervene instead of partnering with him to get things done. This faulty assumption leads to untold confusion and grief when we ask of God but can’t sense He hears us–or even cares. Rather, Jesus says, “I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven” (Matthew 16:19). When we operate from this position, we approach prayer with far greater confidence. We understand we have a role in making change happen and are not victims of circumstance–that we are sons and daughters of God bestowed with tremendous authority.

Pray Your Way To Breakthroughs
$8.99Add to cartMountain Of Fire And Miracles
Pray Your Way To Breakthroughs is to give the user’s prayer life a sharper focus. The Word of God says: “And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the tree: therefore, every tree which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire” (Matthew 3:10). Those things that have seemed resistant to prayers may be so because the axe has not been laid to the root. Also, those recurring and stubborn problems that subside only to come back after a while may be because the axe was laid at the branches but not unto the root. -

Kneeling Christian
$15.99Add to cartWhy are many Christians often defeated? Because they pray so little. Why do most Christians see so few brought “out of darkness to light” by their ministry? Because they pray so little. Why are our churches simply not on fire for God? Because there is so little real prayer.
We may be assured of this: The secret of all failure is our failure in secret prayer.
This book explores, in depth:
God’s wonder at our lack of prayer
God’s incredible promises concerning those who do pray
God’s condition for providing signs
God’s desire for earnest prayer
God’s perspective on hindrances to prayer
The Lord Jesus is as powerful today as ever before. The Lord Jesus is as anxious for men to be saved as ever before. His arm is not shortened that it cannot save, but He does not stretch forth His arm unless we pray more – and more genuinely. Prayer, real prayer, is the noblest, the sublimest, and the most stupendous act that any creature of God can perform. Lord, teach us how to pray.” -

Fervent : A Womans Battle Plan For Serious Specific And Strategic Prayer
$17.99Add to cartYou have an enemy . . . and he’s dead set on destroying all you hold dear and keeping you from experiencing abundant life in Christ. What’s more, his approach to disrupting your life and discrediting your faith isn’t general or generic, not a one-size-fits-all. It’s specific. Personalized. Targeted. So this book is your chance to strike back. With prayer. With a weapon that really works. Each chapter will guide you in crafting prayer strategies that hit the enemy where it hurts, letting him know you’re on to him and that you won’t back down. Because with every new strategy you build, you’re turning the fiercest battles of life into precise strikes against him and his handiwork, each one infused with the power of God’s Spirit. “New York Times” bestselling author Priscilla Shirer, widely known for her international speaking, teaching, and writing ministries, brings her new role from the 2015 film “War Room” into the real lives of today’s women, addressing the topics that affect them most: renewing their “passion,” refocusing their “identity,” negotiating “family” strife, dealing with relentless “regrets,” navigating impossible “schedules,” succeeding against “temptation,” weathering their worst “fears,” uprooting “bitterness,” and more. Each chapter exposes the enemy’s cruel, crafty intentions in all kinds of these areas, then equips and encourages you to write out your own personalized prayer strategies on tear-out sheets you can post and pray over yourself and your loved ones on a regular basis. “Fervent” is a hands-on, knees-down, don’t-give-up action guide to practical, purposeful praying.

Awesome Journey : Lifes Pilgrimage
$14.99Add to cartDrawing on a lifetime of Christian pilgrimage, David Adam reflects on biblical encounters with the divine and offers profound insights – on grief and glory, emptiness and fulfilment; repentance and forgiveness; loving and being loved – that will transform the way we live, and the way we relate to God, here and now. For example, God’s question to Adam, ‘Where are you?’ is relevant to us all; Abraham’s long journey of hearing and obeying (and learning the art of having no agenda) is ours too; Jacob’s great discovery – that heaven is found on earth and earth is raised to heaven – helps us become aware that we often already possess what we think we’re searching for; Moses’ desert experiences of grief and glory encourage us that we journey forward to the Promised Land, while Elijah’s powerlessness reminds us that God often calls us out of darkness and weakness, for we may need stillness to hear him. Written by a best-selling author – and distinguished spiritual director – with a proven track record. Inspires in us – through Bible passages, story, poetry and meditation – a sense of awe for the journey we are on and the courage to live life in abundance. The understanding that God is ‘as pervasive and perceptible as the atmosphere in which we are bathed’ (Teilhard de Chardin) comes through in all David’s writing, and his confidence and delight in the nearness of God is surely one of the reasons his books are so popular.

Grandparenting With A Purpose
$14.99Add to cartMaybe your grandchildren are living with you. Maybe they’re thousands of miles away. Their parents may be spiritually rebellious or simply neglectful of the family’s spiritual life, failing to make prayer and church attendance a regular part of their routine. But even if your grandchildren’s parents have established a strong Christian home, busy schedules, jobs, parenting, and all the distractions of today’s world conspire to distract or even destroy the family. How can you, as a grandparent, help? God gives grandparents a sacred trust-an opportunity to imprint another generation with the message of his faithfulness. You can stand in the gap by being a godly example for your grandchildren and by praying for them. Even grandparents who already pray regularly for their grandchildren will discover creative suggestions for making the practice even more meaningful. From cell phones to photo prayer journals, you’ll find tools that work for you-and for your grandchildren. Author Lillian Ann Penner provides specific examples of prayers to help you get started, such as alphabet prayers, prayers based on special scriptures, and prayers for certain holidays. You may even widen the circle, praying for other children in your life, for children who have parents in the military, and for the adults who influence your grandchildren. Regardless of how far away your grandchildren are, praying for them can bridge the distance between you and leave them with an inheritance more precious than gold.

5. Is The Disciples’ Prayer An Eschatological Prayer?
6. The “temptation” PetitionAdditional Info
Christians around the world recite the “Lord’s Prayer” daily, but what exactly are they praying for-and what relationship does it have with Jesus’ own context? Jeffrey B. Gibson reviews scholarship that derives the so-called Lord’s Prayer from Jewish synagogal prayers and refutes it. The genre of the prayer, he shows, is petitionary, and understanding its intent requires understanding Jesus’ purpose in calling disciples as witnesses against “this generation.” Jesus did not mean to teach a unique understanding of God; the prayer had its roots in first-century Jewish movements of protest.In context, Gibson shows (pace Schweitzer, Lohmeyer, Davies, Allison, and a host of other scholars) that the prayer had little to do with “calling down” into the present realities of “the age to come.” Rather, it was meant to protect disciples from the temptations of their age and, thus, to strengthen their countercultural testimony. Gibson’s conclusions offer new insights into the historical Jesus and the movement he sought to establish.

Mothers Prayer And Gods Miraculous Answer
$14.99Add to cartRevival Waves Of Glory Ministries
We must position ourselves to receive. In any circumstance where a giver is giving, the recipient must position themselves to receive. Spiritually you cannot receive a gift from God unless you position yourself to receive that gift. In fact, if you are not in position, God’s blessing will crush you, it will cause the opposite effect that was intended. Cameron and Caden Sturtz were dying from a rare liver disease until their parents decided to go and position themselves to let go and let God take control even if their boys were to lose their life. This miracle blessing was crushing their family until they were willing to position themselves, which was the hardest decision ever. The Lord asks, what are you willing to sacrifice for the harvest He has for you without knowing what it looks like? -

* Can all Christians hear God?
* What are the best conditions for optimum listening prayer?
* How do I know it’s God talking to me and not my own wishes–or, worse, Satan’s attempts to distract and deceive?Concise and incredibly practical, Sampson also gives clear directives for discernment, for cultivating intimacy with the Holy Spirit, and for developing a faith that responds to that still, small voice.
