Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The way of the righteous is often compared to the first gleam of dawn, steadily illuminating until it reaches the full light of day. Similarly, the life of a person who understands the power of prayer follows a trajectory of increasing brightness. Our response to challenging situations often reveals our true identity in Christ. It's during these tough times that one's strength is truly tested. However, the most crucial action to take amidst adversity is to turn to God in prayer rather than succumbing to despair or distress. The God who answered prayers generations ago remains active today. Prayer, especially prayers of perseverance, becomes essential when we feel overwhelmed or depleted of strength. Despite moments when it may seem like our resolve is fading, persevering in prayer can reignite our inner strength. In this book, you'll find a collection of perseverance prayers designed to renew your spirit and fortify your resolve. May you never lose hope, for in due time, you will reap the rewards of your perseverance. Amen.

Download or read book Gains of Persistence in Praying written by Christopher N Nwachukwu and published by . This book was released on 2020-05-08 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idea of being commanded to "pray without ceasing" as stated in 1 Thessalonians 5:17 is evidence that prayers are very important and necessary to the destiny of man. In this book, we are reminded that beyond the idea of invoking God's presence and blessings, that prayer is a divine weapon and can be seen as software that runs the soul. We are invited to contemplate the fact that there are no less than 130 references to prayer in the Bible. Very significantly, references to the predominance of prayer, as a phenomenon, can be seen in at least thirty-eight books of the Bible: twenty-three in the Old Testament, and fifteen in the New Testament. It is pertinent that roughly 135 verses contain such references to prayer. While the New Testament Books that feature references to prayer include Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Romans, Colossian, Thessalonians, Philippians, Acts, Hebrews, 1 Corinthians, Ephesians, James, Peter, and 1 Timothy, those in the Old Testament are Genesis, Exodus, Joshua, Judges, Job, 1 Samuel, 2 Samuel, 1 King, Numbers, 1 Chronicles, 2 Chronicles, Ecclesiastics, Proverbs, Psalms, Isaiah, Ezra, Nehemiah, Jeremiah, Jonah, Daniel, Amos, and Lamentations. It is because prayers are so important that Jesus Christ, beyond praying for Himself and others, created time to teach His disciples how to pray.

Download or read book Becoming Women of the Word written by Sarah Christmyer and published by Ave Maria Press. This book was released on 2019-08-02 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of a 2020 Catholic Press Association book award (third place, scripture-popular studies). The women God called to bring his chosen people into the world were ordinary women who struggled with emptiness, oppression, infertility, and loss—yet who found strength and hope in God. In her first book, Sarah Christmyer—codeveloper of The Great Adventure Catholic Bible study program—pairs the stories of key Old Testament women with stories of women she has known to show us how we can hear God, say yes to his call, and share him with the world just as they did. Breaking open the scriptures to reveal the historical, cultural, and biblical context in which Old Testament women lived, Sarah Christmyer breathes new life into their stories and makes their lives surprisingly relatable. In the process, she shares stories from her own faith journey and the lives of family and friends to show how the same principles that turned ordinary women into heroines of the faith are true for our lives today. Each chapter of Becoming Women of the Word highlights the spiritual legacy of one or more women in the Old Testament. Their world was vastly different from ours, yet they faced the same questions we do: when we can’t feel God’s presence, where do we find help? When our world is collapsing, where is God? Why should we trust him? How can we trust him? Christmyer simply and clearly draws from the lives of these women important principles that help us to trust—even as we struggle with doubt. For example: Through Eve, we learn to hold on to God’s promise even when we fail. Sarah reminds us to wait on God’s timing to make us fruitful. Miriam, the sister of Moses, shows how to lead by example. Ruth and Esther challenge us to see womanhood as a gift. Hannah and Judith inspire us to trust God even in matters of life and death. These unforgettable portraits create a colorful mosaic of faith, encouraging us to mine God’s Word for spiritual treasure and to pass on the gift.

Download or read book Radical written by David Platt and published by Multnomah. This book was released on 2010-05-04 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New York Times bestseller What is Jesus worth to you? It's easy for American Christians to forget how Jesus said his followers would actually live, what their new lifestyle would actually look like. They would, he said, leave behind security, money, convenience, even family for him. They would abandon everything for the gospel. They would take up their crosses daily... But who do you know who lives like that? Do you? In Radical, David Platt challenges you to consider with an open heart how we have manipulated the gospel to fit our cultural preferences. He shows what Jesus actually said about being his disciple--then invites you to believe and obey what you have heard. And he tells the dramatic story of what is happening as a "successful" suburban church decides to get serious about the gospel according to Jesus. Finally, he urges you to join in The Radical Experiment -- a one-year journey in authentic discipleship that will transform how you live in a world that desperately needs the Good News Jesus came to bring.

Download or read book The David Story A Translation with Commentary of 1 and 2 Samuel written by Robert Alter and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2009-10-21 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A masterpiece of contemporary Bible translation and commentary."—Los Angeles Times Book Review, Best Books of 1999 Acclaimed for its masterful new translation and insightful commentary, The David Story is a fresh, vivid rendition of one of the great works in Western literature. Robert Alter's brilliant translation gives us David, the beautiful, musical hero who slays Goliath and, through his struggles with Saul, advances to the kingship of Israel. But this David is also fully human: an ambitious, calculating man who navigates his life's course with a flawed moral vision. The consequences for him, his family, and his nation are tragic and bloody. Historical personage and full-blooded imagining, David is the creation of a literary artist comparable to the Shakespeare of the history plays.
