His prayer life is much different than it was thirty years ago and the results have dramatically improved! You may be asking many of the same questions Andrew once did. Is prayer my Christian duty? Is prayer primarily about asking God to meet my needs and the needs of others? Is God's answer to my prayer based on the degree of my humility and sincerity? Is answered prayer a sovereign decision of God or do I have the ability to influence Him? Clear, scriptural answers to these questions and more could significantly change the way you pray. These principles may not be the only way to pray, but if you're not getting the results you desire, consider changing directions; maybe there is A Better Way to Pray.

Book excerpt: Inspiration from the Apostle Paul on how to pray bold, exciting prayers. Inspiration from the Apostle Paul on how to pray bold, exciting prayers. So many of us struggle with prayer. Many books have been written on the subject and there’s a reason for that. Prayer comes hard to most of us, in most seasons. And when we do pray, we often don't know what to say. What is it that my Father loves to hear about? What are the best things I could pray for my family, my church, and myself? This short book by renowned Bible teacher Alistair Begg combines warmth, clarity, humour, and practicality as he examines Paul’s prayers for his friends in the church in Ephesus. Paul clearly enjoyed prayer, and was excited about it. He expected his Father in heaven to hear what he said, and to act in other people’s lives accordingly. The truths that underpin and shape his prayers will motivate us to pray and set us an example. So be inspired by the Apostle Paul to pray bigger and better prayers as we look to our heavenly Father to do more than all we ask or imagine!

Download or read book God Is the Gospel written by John Piper and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2005-09-08 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: God, who said, "Let light shine out of darkness," has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. 2 Corinthians 4:6 This book is a cry from the heart of John Piper. He is pleading that God himself, as revealed in Christ's death and resurrection, is the ultimate and greatest gift of the gospel. None of Christ's gospel deeds and none of our gospel blessings are good news except as means of seeing and savoring the glory of Christ. Forgiveness is good news because it opens the way to the enjoyment of God himself. Justification is good news because it wins access to the presence and pleasures of God himself. Eternal life is good news because it becomes the everlasting enjoyment of Christ. All God's gifts are loving only to the degree that they lead us to God himself. That is what God's love is: his commitment to do everything necessary (most painfully the death of his only Son) to enthrall us with what is most deeply and durably satisfying-namely, himself. Saturated with Scripture, centered on the cross, and seriously joyful, this book leads us to satisfaction for the deep hungers of the soul. It touches us at the root of life where practical transformation gets its daily power. It awakens our longing for Christ and opens our eyes to his beauty. Piper writes for the soul-thirsty who have turned away empty and in desperation from the mirage of methodology. He invites us to slow down and drink from a deeper spring. "This is eternal life," Jesus said, "that they know you the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent." This is what makes the gospel-and this book-good news.

Download or read book God Has a Name written by John Mark Comer and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2017-03-28 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: God Has a Name is a simple yet profound guide to understanding God in a new light--focusing on what God says about himself. This one shift has the potential to radically alter how you relate to God, not as a doctrine, but as a relational being who responds to you in an elastic, back-and-forth way. In God Has a Name, John Mark Comer takes you line by line through Exodus 34:6-8--Yahweh's self-revelation on Mount Sinai, one of the most quoted passages in the Bible. Along the way, Comer addresses some of the most profound questions he came across as he studied these noted lines in Exodus, including: Why do we feel this gap between us and God? Could it be that a lot of what we think about God is wrong? Not all wrong, but wrong enough to mess up how we relate to him? What if our "God" is really a projection of our own identity, ideas, and desires? What if the real God is different, but far better than we could ever imagine? No matter where you are in your spiritual journey, the act of learning who God is just might surprise you--and change everything.

Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.

Download or read book The Way To Pray With Words of Yeshua Jesus Christ written by Ardeci Cardoso and published by Holy Spirit Self Publishing . This book was released on 2020-12-10 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: INTRODUCTION Prayer is one of the most powerful ways to experience the love, power, and grace of God. The best characteristic of prayer is that you can do it anytime, anywhere, and regardless of whether you're poor or rich. Prayer is a totally free resource that is available to anybody who believes, just as it is easy to get ample sunlight and air by simply going outdoors. But many people find prayer to be like rocket science subjects such as stochastic calculus, theoretical physics, and econometrics. Why? Do research on the word prayer on Google or other search engines, and you'll find a plethora of definitions, many of which contradict each other. For example, many believe that the power of prayer lies in the specific words used, such as Latin, as evidenced by it being used in what is often called "high masses." But there are many who believe that it is not the language or the words per se but the faith behind them. Another example of conflicting beliefs about prayer pertains to its efficacy. Many believe that if you pray the right way, i.e., using a formula or a template, God is sure to hear your prayers by granting exactly what you ask for. Others believe otherwise, saying that our prayer requests are down to God’s will at the end of the day. So, how do we know which of the myriad number of teachings about prayer is legitimate and which are false? How can we learn - if it is possible - to pray the right way? This is what this book is about. The best way to know how to really pray is to ask God himself. And in today's day and age, we can do that through reading His word. That's why within the pages of this book, we will take deep dives into what the Holy Bible really says about prayer. As the saying goes, and with no blasphemy intended, it's best to get the information straight from the horse's mouth. So, if you want to start learning how to pray the right way, according to God's will, we'll look no further than what his only begotten son Jesus Christ has to say about it. That will be the main principle upon which this entire book will be anchored. If Jesus Christ says so, then it is the truth. By the end of this book, you will be in a very good position to start praying as Jesus did.

Book excerpt: “God has appointed preaching in worship as one great means of accomplishing his ultimate goal in the world.” —John Piper John Piper makes a compelling claim in these pages about the purpose of preaching: it is intended not merely as an explanation of the text but also as a means of awakening worship by being worship in and of itself. Christian preaching is a God-appointed miracle aiming to awaken the supernatural seeing, savoring, and showing of the glory of Christ. Distilling over forty years of experience in preaching and teaching, Piper shows preachers how and what to communicate from God’s Word, so that God’s purpose on earth will advance through Biblesaturated, Christ-exalting, God-centered preaching—in other words, expository exultation.
