This book will show you the importance of fighting the enemy in the
spirit, and why being equipped with God’s warfare weapons is one of the
most life-changing experiences of all.
Christians have an enemy who will do everything in his power to alter,
edit, stop, delay, and abort their God-given destiny. Satan and his
demonic kingdom have one purpose: to kill, steal, and destroy.
The enemy does not want our God-ordained prophetic destiny to be
fulfilled in this very hour. This is why we need to pray like never
before and arm ourselves with the arsenal of heaven like the
ambassadors and soldiers of the Lord we are. Fire Prayers will equip
you to pick up your weapons of warfare and fight the good fight of
faith.
Filled with powerful teachings, Fire Prayers will equip you with a
spiritual warfare arsenal that will leave Satan and his kingdom
trembling and unable to manipulate, control, or dominate you; hinder
your relationship with Jesus; or thwart your destiny.
Readers will learn:
• Prayer is the key for blocking the enemy’s attacks
• Why it is so important to fight the kingdom of darkness
• How they can live a life free of spiritual chains
A readable and powerful call, by a leading Old Testament scholar,
to pray with and through the Psalms. Walter Brueggemann pushes his
readers to recognize the full gamut of passions reflected in the
Psalms: joy and exultation but also disappointment, sorrow, anger,
resentment, even the desire for vengeance. We are invited into a
daring relationship with the God who calls us to pray with honesty.
In the spiritual classic readers are guided into a thoughtful and
prayerful encounter with God through the Psalms. This new edition
includes a thoroughly revised text, new notes and new bibliography.
In Praying the Psalms, Brueggemann carefully guides us away from
the bland colours of contemporary culture and into the ancient and
extreme world of praise and lament. This is essential reading. Ian
Stackhouse Senior Pastor, Guildford Baptist Church
God, God Almighty, God the Creator of the heavens and the earth, God
the Beginning and the End, God the Source of all that is, God the
Creator of man—the same God, in all His power and all His majesty,
stops and listens when you pray. God has given humanity the ability to
bring heaven to earth.
Whether you know it or not, you have the authority to change the world
through prayer. When God said, “Let mankind rule over all the earth,”
He was arranging the dominion of the world so that the partnership of
mankind was essential for the accomplishment of His purposes. Through
his unique perspective on this often-misunderstood subject,
best-selling author Dr. Myles Munroe takes the mystery out of prayer,
providing practical answers for difficult questions about communicating
with God.
All that God is—and all that God has—may be received through prayer.
Everything you need to fulfill your purpose on earth is available to
you through prayer. The biblically based, time-tested principles in
this book will ignite and transform the way you pray. Be prepared to
enter into a new dimension of faith, a deeper revelation of God’s love,
and a renewed understanding that your prayers can truly move the hand
of God.
This expanded edition includes study questions for individual or small
group use.
Barrett's book consists of a complete revision of the four
chapters, of the Didsbury Lectures, given at the British Isles
Nazarene College, Manchester. The chapter titles indicate the
content: From Jesus to the Church; Ministry; Sacraments; and The
Developing Community. Barrett properly points out that "the church
is at the same time central and peripheral." Likewise, the church
is provisional, temporary, penultimate-an interim solution for the
time between the resurrection/ ascension of Jesus and the heaven of
the church. He also correctly notes the possibility and danger of
an ecclesiological as well as christological Apollinarianism.
Consequently, he emphasizes the human nature of Christ and human
dimensions of the church.

Who are you becoming? That was the question nagging pastor and
author John Mark Comer. By outward metrics, everything appeared
successful. But inwardly, things weren't pretty. So he turned to a
trusted mentor for guidance and heard these words: 'Ruthlessly
eliminate hurry from your life. Hurry is the great enemy of the
spiritual life.' It wasn't the response he expected, but it
continues to be the answer he needs. Too often we treat the
symptoms of toxicity in our modern world instead of trying to
pinpoint the cause. A growing number of voices are pointing at
hurry, or busyness as a root of much evil. Within the pages of this
book, you'll find a compelling emotional and spiritual case against
hurry and in favour of a slower, simpler way of life.

I Surrender All - Inspired by the themes of the feature film, The Forge
All To Him I Freely Give
From Priscilla Shirer comes this fervent appeal and invitation to
surrender everything to Jesus. To follow Him not just as your Savior
but as your priority, your first love, your Lord. To move beyond being
a believer to becoming His disciple.
Because there is a difference.
Salvation is a gift of God. It’s free. It’s grace. It’s the cross.
Discipleship comes at a high cost. It’s surrender. It’s effort. It’s a
daily choice to lay down your life and follow His. Few believers choose
this route, but the ones who do will experience the abundance that only
the surrendered life can offer. It’s the one choice standing between
you and the life of freedom and fulfillment, of peace and purpose
you’ve always wanted. I Surrender All is all about making that choice.
The choice that changes everything.
This book will be impossible to simply read because it beckons you to
make a decision about the kind of Christian you will be. Prepare to
engage, to write, to pray, and be called into a surrendered life. An
abundant life. A disciple’s life.
