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.
God's Word is the strongest weapon in a believer's spiritual
artillery. Quin Sherrer and Ruthanne Garlock, bestselling authors
of A Woman's Guide to Spiritual Warfare, believe that when
Christians use the Bible in intercession and warfare, they bind the
power of the evil one and declare God's promises and victory for
their lives and for those they love. In The Spiritual Warrior's
Prayer Guide, they show the reader how to apply biblical promises
to every area of life, whether in illness, financial trouble,
depression, concern for wayward loved ones, unemployment, or
spiritual confusion.

When you talk to God, do you ever feel as if you are not getting
through? You're not alone. At some point, most believers find
themselves grappling with difficult questions like Would God really
talk to me personally? and How do I know it's truly God talking,
and not my own thoughts? But here's the good news: Hearing God is
simpler than you think. It's possible to have a relationship with
God that involves both speaking and listening. In fact, it's God's
desire; He wants to talk to you. In this revised and expanded
edition of a classic work, author and teacher Steve Sampson shows
you how to pray not just wishing you'd hear God's voice--but
expecting to hear it. Sampson's uncomplicated, practical
perspective will help you cultivate the two-way conversation with
God you've always longed for. Before long, you'll hear Him speaking
into your circumstances and relationships, expressing His love for
you and showing you the next steps to take in your life. Don't
settle for a one-sided conversation with God. Break through this
barrier and develop a sensitive heart that hears--and responds
to--God's still, small voice. "With clarity and humor, Steve takes
you on a journey to the place of profound simplicity in Christ
where hearing Him is as natural as breathing."--Bishop Mark J.

Fr. Thomas Dubay, one of the most popular and respected retreat
masters and spirtual directors in the USA, is the author of the
perennial best-selling book on prayer and contemplation, Fire
Within. In this book, he responds to the call of both Pope John
Paul II and Benedict XVI to priests to help believers and all
spiritual seekers develop a deeper prayer life and union with God.
As in his other popular writings, Dubay speaks in terms clear and
readable, though profound and meditative. He gives an overview of
the spiritual life and jounrey for anyone seeking to grow in the
love of God and neighbor. An expert on the teachings and writings
of the two great mystical doctors of prayer and the spiritual life,
Teresa of Avila and John of the Cross, Dubay gives solid practical
advice for a deepening moral and spiritual conversion, and a
radical growth in holiness.
