Showing titles in Prayer

In wondrous contrast to silent idols, the one true God speaks. He addresses his people in love, and it’s their great privilege to answer him in prayer. At its root, prayer isn’t mere self-expression or a prod to get a silent God to speak, but it is a learned skill to answer God’s initiating word in Christ. Through this thoughtful book, author and pastor Daniel J. Brendsel explains how responding to God can nurture prayerful engagement with Scripture, shape healthy rhythms among God’s praying people, and spur excitement for communion with God.

"Will you pray for me?" is a question pastors hear every day. But when have you heard a pastor ask that question for themselves? Frankly, it's rare. That was the question Thom Rainer asked his congregation. The response was overwhelming. Within two days, more than one hundred people committed to praying for him, and the church was transformed over the next year. Thom cannot imagine what would have happened if he hadn't overcome his initial reluctance to be that vulnerable with his congregation.

Too many Christians have settled for experiencing small doses of God's supernatural love. But what if your life was marked by an outpouring of His power, answered prayers, miracles, and victory? In this practical, eye-opening book, Dr. Kynan Bridges shows that this is exactly the life God designed you for—through Christ, you have the divine right to operate in the miraculous. Why? Because miracles are deliberate, redeeming, life-changing displays of God's love in action.

Träume und Visionen sind Instrumente, durch die Gott Ihre Sensibilität entwickeln will, um mit Ihm zu kommunizieren, damit Sie ein Bote, ein Jünger und ein Werkzeug sind, um Seinen Plan, Sein Ziel und Seinen Willen für die Menschheit auszuführen. Der Song “Bless Me Oh Lord” gesungen von Chey, am Ende der Predigt, gibt dem Zuhörer Gelegenheit, über die Predigt nachzudenken.

If we call someone extravagant, we’re usually thinking about his spending habits and luxurious way of life. So to use that word for a homeless man who had only one change of clothes—an itinerant teacher who depended on others for food and shelter—seems a stretch. Yet Jesus was the most extravagant person who ever lived. Carole Engle Avriett invites you to redefine your notion of “extravagant.” In this study of ancient customs and ways of life, you’ll gain an understanding of the cultural context of the Scriptures and of twelve key characteristics of God's nature.

At times, our chaotic world reveals hints of the utter brokenness in which we live, like a peek behind the veneer. As people of faith in a powerful God, we want to lift our faces to heaven to cry out or bury our face in our hands to whisper prayers. Either way we utter things like “God, please help,” “God, what are you doing?” “God, those people are terrible!” And we aren’t alone in those words we lift to heaven. In fact, our frustrating and exhausting experience with chaos, injustice, and corruption is much like that of the distressed prophet Habakkuk in the Old Testament.

Although arguably one of the simplest aspects of Christianity, prayer is also perhaps the most neglected, overlooked, and malnourished part of the average Christian’s day and life. While praying quickly before food and with a congregation on Sunday and for an ailing relative may be common enough, J. C. Ryle truly, and with palpable heartfelt and genuine care, pushes those of faith to see their lack of serious prayer for the spiritual health crisis that it is.

We do not have a spirit of fear and timidity; we have a spirit of power, love, and a sound mind. When we walk by the Spirit, we are not conformed to a world of worry and anxiety. Bad habits must cease. Negativity, confusion, and worry are banished. The enemy has no playground. Sound impossible? With God, nothing is impossible. Author and speaker Kelly Balarie offers a rousing call to be transformed through the renewing of your mind by taking every thought captive to Christ.

Grounded in biblical teaching and drawing from his own renewal experiences, pastor and revivalist Glen Berteau emboldens you to get fed up with the ineffectual status quo, showing you how to ignite the supernatural power God has placed in you, be filled up with the Holy Spirit, get fired up for what God can do through you, and see beyond your current circumstance.

Der Autor dieses Hörbuches ist unbekannt. Doch der Hörer wird feststellen, dass er die Bedeutung des Gebets kannte. Weil Jesus Christus alle Macht im Himmel und auf Erden besitzt, forderte er seine Jünger immer wieder auf, alles in Seinem Namen zu erbitten. Der Autor nimmt diese Erkenntnis auf und wendet sie an. Er geht auf verschiedene Verheißungen ein, die Jesus auf das Gebet legt, und auf die Hindernisse, die wir uns immer wieder selbst in den Weg legen. Der kniende Christ wird in diesem Hörbuch ermutigt, den allmächtigen Gott anzubeten und zu verehren.

In our current culture, the church and prayer are often dismissed as irrelevant. But when believers gather and pray together, powerful things happen: the Spirit equips the saints for ministry, the helpless are met with help, and believers experience the joy of being led by the Spirit of Jesus. In this audiobook, Paul E. Miller, bestselling author of A Praying Life, casts a vision for a return to the simple yet life-changing practice of praying together. Through personal stories and biblical examples, Miller teaches the why, what, and how of praying together.

Seu papel é relevante em qualquer momento e circunstância da vida.
