La prière a-t-elle une puissance particulière ? Lorsqu’un chrétien prie, cela influence-t-il le cours des choses ? Cela change-t-il quoi que ce soit ? Bien que nos prières ne modifient pas les projets de Dieu, ce dernier a institué la prière comme moyen d’accomplir sa volonté. Nous pouvons être assurés que la prière change les choses, y compris nos propres cœurs. Dans ce petit livre, R. C. Sproul soutient que la prière détient une place centrale dans la vie du chrétien et il nous appelle à nous présenter devant Dieu avec un cœur joyeux et rempli d’espérance.

NOUS NE SOMMES PAS DOUÉS POUR LA PRIÈRE. C’est malheureusement vrai pour la plupart d’entre nous et cela ne devrait pas nous étonner. Toutefois, ce livre n’aborde pas le sujet de la prière d’une manière culpabilisante. Au lieu de nous dire de mieux prier ou de prier plus souvent, l’auteur nous montre plutôt pourquoi la prière est essentielle et pourquoi nous devrions en profiter pleinement.

When the disciples asked Jesus how to pray, Jesus gave them this prayer. He likely taught it to his followers often, not just one time. He never intended the Lord's Prayer to be a museum piece, placed on a mantel. It was Jesus teaching God's people, through his disciples, how to pray. In The Lord's Prayer: The Meaning and Power of the Prayer Jesus Taught, Adam Hamilton guides us to really know—and really pray—the Lord's Prayer. He explores each of its rich lines and their meaning in the Bible, illuminating what we ask of God and what we ask of ourselves through its words.

E.M. Bounds encourages Christians to pray big and to pray often. Focusing on the unlimited power that comes from prayer, Bounds emphasizes the importance of continuous and sincere prayer and implores Christians to not be afraid to ask God for anything. In The Possibilities of Prayer, he provides guidelines for cultivating a healthy and effective prayer life. Walking through God’s promises, God’s care, and His interest in even the smallest aspects of life, Bounds argues for detailed and specific prayers.

Sarah Ivill contends, “As we study prayer through the lens of the unfolding story of Scripture, it will teach us how to pray, but more importantly it will reveal the Covenant God to whom we pray.” And such an endeavor provides the foundation and motivation necessary to enrich our prayer life. See how Old Testament prayers find their fulfillment and transformation in Christ. Discover boldness and joy in prayer because Christ is the high priest who gives us access to the throne of grace. Moreover, look forward to an eternity in which our prayers will consist of unhindered praise.

Here, Dr. Evans offers more than 60 topical prayers and motivational thoughts for every area of your life.

Christians know the importance of prayer, but the act of praying can be a real challenge. Some have the desire, but not always the will; others worry they don't do it well. Books about prayer usually emphasize spiritual discipline, but that can foster more guilt than reassurance. So how can Christians improve their prayer life, embracing the privilege of communicating with God? In The Lord's Prayer, Kevin DeYoung closely examines Christ's model for prayer, giving listeners a deeper understanding of its content and meaning, and how it works in the lives of God's people.

When life sends us trouble, we should pray. When we experience blessings, we should pray. When a friend or loved one is going through a difficult time, we should pray. We know this. Yet too often we don't know exactly what to say - so we say nothing.

Eu tenho uma pergunta para lhe fazer. Ela é composta de duas palavras: VOCÊ ORA?A questão é que ninguém pode responder a esta pergunta por você. Se você assistiu ao culto público ou não, o seu pastor sabe. Se você faz orações familiares em sua casa ou não, seus parentes sabem. Mas se você ora em secreto ou não, é um assunto apenas entre você e Deus. Vivemos em dias de abundante profissão religiosa. Há mais lugares de culto público agora do que jamais houve. Há mais pessoas frequentando-os do que em qualquer outro momento anterior.

Originally a sermon, No and Yes served as Mary Baker Eddy’s response to a local pastor’s denunciation of Christian Science. No and Yes clarifies the metaphysics and teachings of Christian Science and shows how Christian Science differs from other faith traditions.

Arthur W. Pink gets right to the point in this brief but beneficial book. To pray correctly, Christians need clarity, and this book delivers. Pink said it well: “We need something better than that which is of mere human origin to guide us if we are to perform aright this essential duty.” This book assists the modern disciple to better understand the Lord’s Prayer taught to those first disciples long ago.

Many followers of Christ find it discouraging trying to maintain an active prayer life and end up letting that discipline fall to the side. E.M. Bounds, a dedicated prayer warrior himself, shows how much God does listen to prayer and how greatly he desires that his children reach out to him.

Every Moment Holy, Vol. 2: Death, Grief, & Hope is a book of liturgies for seasons of dying and grieving - liturgies such as "A Liturgy for the Scattering of Ashes" or "A Liturgy for the Loss of a Spouse" or "A Liturgy for the Wake of a National Tragedy" or "A Liturgy for the Weighing of Last-Stage Medical Options." These are ways of reminding us that our lives are shot through with sacred purpose and eternal hopes even when, especially when, suffering and pain threaten to overwhelm us.

"God, do you hear me?" If we're honest, that's a sentiment we’ve all shared. Prayer can be challenging and confusing. Often we feel abandoned, betrayed, and anxious. We don't know what to pray for, we don't know the words to say, and sometimes it just feels like there's no one on the other side.
