Prayers for opening and closing the work meetings of faith groups. The author defines prayer as reverent attention to the mysteries of life. Hence these prayers are for thoughtful people of all traditions--from Humanist to Hindu, Buddhist to Christian, and more--who work together in a faith community or faith setting. Tips and suggestions are offered for successfully tailoring these to your setting. Prayers are grouped in four categories: 1) Prayers for Sharing Hearts--Opening and closing reflections with spaces for participants to share what's on their hearts; 2) Longer Reflections--Services designed for deeper sharing; 3) Benedictions & Prayers--Short texts for special occasions and times when heart-sharing won't be done; 4) Readings & Poems--supplemental texts.

E. Stanley Jones wrote "Victorious Living" in 1936 to respond to inquirers who had come to him morally and spiritually defeated. They were inwardly beaten, thus outwardly ineffective. The book responds with individual and social emphases, and goes step by step, as if on a ladder, to work through the pressing questions of the inner life and how it extends outward: How do we achieve a life evidencing the peace that passes understanding, even in ourselves, let alone passing it on?

What makes the difference between ordinary living and extraordinary, victorious living? How can we build a new inner strength that shines through in our outward character and relationships? Our own efforts to rise above are ineffective but by applying the power of God s Word we can close the gap between our reality and our beliefs. Each daily reading offers essential truths and eternal principles: keys to victorious living in the circumstances we encounter every day Now this vibrant work is making a long deserved comeback, with a new foreword by Leonard Sweet."

When properly done, there's a definite cleansing and emotional recharging. Praying is all about frequency assimilation, the intentions of finite with the infinite. There's perfection on one end and vulnerability at the other. A dimensional force field is successfully created by manipulating physical and spiritual energy. Vital aspects are not so much physical transmutation, but the transformation. The very things wished for, we cannot seek for ourselves alone, but for all of humanity. Effective actions are based on tolerant love which cannot be foolish or incredulous. It must be a type that engages service to the greater life involvement, a better existence maintained by kind, loving, generous thoughts, feelings, and positive actions demonstrating a continued fulfilling life with spiritual values.

The Apostle Paul stated publicly, "To the Jew I became like a Jew to win the Jews... To those not having the law I became like one not having the law, so as to win those not having the law. To the weak I became weak, to win the weak. I have become all things to all people so that by all possible means I might save some" (1Cor.9:20-22 TNIV.) Just as the Apostle Paul unfortunately had to live through, suffer, literally "BECOME THE PERSON he was called to witness to in order that he would be able to understand and help them with their problem," Pastor Willie, comparable to Paul, also live through, suffered, struggled with crack cocaine addiction, homelesness and as a result he understands the deception, complications, rejection, misery, pain and agony that crack cocaine addicts go through in their search for deliverance. For those reasons God has also called him into ministry with the purpose of using Pastor Willie's testimony, knowledge, struggles, and compassion for the drug addicted to help deliver, witness and bring them into a happy, drug free, praise worthy relationship with God The truth is that God knows "when people are in "bondage" (Ex2:23; 6:5-6), held a slave to anyone or anything that they will neglect to praise and serve him." (See Ex.6:9). That why I fearlessly say to the evil spirit of crack cocaine influence, "Demon spirit of crack cocaine Bondage let my people go that THEY MAY PRAISE THE LORD " (See Ex. 1:13-14; 3:7-12; 2:23; 8:1, 20; 9:1). Are you sick are tired of going in and out of rehabs only to relapse shortly afterward being released, tired of being confused about why you're or a love is having such a hard time tired breaking the addiction, tired of prostituting yourself, and being viewed as weak and pathedic by the world? Well, your deliverance is moments away

How many of us have learned how to recite the Lord's Prayer as children? Perhaps we did this about the same time as we learned how to sing the National Anthem.
