New Edition of a Powerful Prayer Tool from Two Ministry Leaders If
you long for spiritual breakthrough, use the method as tried and
true as the Bible itself: Pray the Bible out loud before moving
into silent communion with God. By Jesus' example, we know that
praying the Scriptures aloud brings powerful results. It can also
provide focus and direction for your prayer life. In this revised
edition of Praying the Bible: The Book of Prayers, Wesley and
Stacey Campbell take the ancient tradition of the prayer book and
give it a modern twist. They present passages of Scripture that are
actually prayers, divided according to eight categories--the
prayers of Jesus, prayers of the apostles, prayers of wisdom,
Psalms, and more. This gives you quick and easy access to 88 Bible
prayers that speak to any situation in life. Each section includes
an introduction and practical instruction on how to pray the
specific type of prayer. Whether you are a novice or a seasoned
intercessor, this unique prayer tool will lead you on a pathway to
a deeper life with God. Endorsement "One of the most valuable tools
that intercessors can use for prayer."--Cindy Jacobs
The world clamors for efficiency and productivity. But the life of
prayer is neither efficient nor productive. Instead, as we learn in
the psalms, prayer calls us to wait, to watch, to listen, to taste,
and to see. These things are not productive by any modern
measure-but they are transformative. As a pastor in Manhattan, John
Starke knows the bustle and busyness of our society. But he also
knows that prayer is not just for spiritual giants. Prayer, he
writes, is for each of us-not because we are full of spiritual
wisdom and maturity, but because we are empty. Here is an
invitation to discover, via the church's ancient rhythms and with
Starke's clear, practical guidance, the possibility of prayer. Here
is a book about prayer that is really a book about the whole
Christian life.

How would life be different if we could think, see, and do all
things in light of the person and work of Jesus? With this
inspiring collection of 365 Scripture-centered prayers, Scotty
Smith helps readers pray the Scriptures through the lens of the
gospel, mining the resources of God's grace and applying them in
every season of life. He frees readers to abandon any posing or
pretending in favor of an honest, no-spin relationship with a God
who claims them as his own.
Each day includes a Scripture reference and an inspirational
original prayer, born from both moments of great faith and moments
of crisis. Like a modern-day book of Psalms, "Everyday Prayers" is
a year's worth of growing in grace that readers will lean on year
after year.
E. M. Bounds, one of the most prolific and powerful writers on
prayer said, "Men and women are needed whose prayers will give to
the world the utmost power of God; who will make His promises to
blossom with rich and full results. God is waiting to hear us and
challenges us to bring Him to do this thing by our praying." A
Treasury of Prayer is the best of seven books on prayer by E. M.
Bounds in a single volume. Pursue prayer "with an energy that never
tires, a persistency which will not be denied, and a courage that
never fails."
God cannot fill what's already filled with itself.
Are you struggling to hear God? Is it hard to find time in your busy
day for more than
a few minutes of prayer? Maybe it's time for a different approach.
Maybe it's time to set aside real blocks of time to be quiet before the
Lord.
In Quiet Prayer, Marie Chapian-a lifelong student of reflective
prayer-examines the
benefits of meaningful meditation, both ancient and modern.
Did you know the passionate, early followers of Jesus regularly
practiced meditation?
It was the building block and very basis of their faith. Many of them
chose to live
apart from society, in cloistered cells and caves as hermits and
recluses of the desert.
These men and women of God were called Abbas and Ammas-mothers and
fathers of
the faith-and were looked up to as spiritual guides, mentors, healers,
and deliverers
in their time. So, what can we learn from them?
You may not have the time or desire to live in the desert, but you can
learn how to
cultivate a quiet place in your soul. A place where your faith will be
grounded and
your mind can finally rest.

Are you trying to do it all yourself? Muyskens reminds us that what
God seeks is relationship with us, a two-way communication. What
relationship with God requires is very similar to what our earthly
relationships require: openness, listening, focused time. One way
to practice the skills needed for this relationship is centering
prayer, a simple but deeply powerful prayer practice. In beautiful
and accessible language, Muyskens invites us to spend time daily
focusing our hearts on God, to find the power to be still and be
reoriented to "the One who is the Center of all." Exercises in
prayer and scripture reading are provided for the 40 days.

Sixty modern and inspiring liturgies that offer compassionate insight to nurture your soul, from the bestselling authors of Liturgies for Hope.
What if my current life is preparing me for something I can’t see?
Oh God, when I feel overlooked and forgotten,
when I ache to be important,
redirect my heart to You who remembers me.
When your spirit is restless and you can’t find the words, these modern-day liturgies help you articulate your brokenness to the God who calls you beloved.
The lyrical prayers in Liturgies for Wholeness name our longings—the ache for physical rest, the grief over something we never had, the desire for healing in a relationship—even as they call us to notice the blessing of washing our face and watching nightfall and sink deep into an awareness of God’s presence.
Divided into eight sections—including Mind, Senses, Body, Home, and Community—these liturgies can be read communally or individually to bring you into greater intimacy with God. Each prayer includes related Scripture references to offer you further opportunity for meditation and reflection.
With each liturgy in Liturgies for Wholeness, may you sense God’s deep desire for you and may you delight in the only One who can make you whole.
