A Change in My Life

Tweet

My prayer life that is. Twelve days ago I found a wonderful book on prayer. I've been searching for a book like this for many years. I didn't want a book with prayers in it, but I wanted a book that would teach me how to pray effectively. Our Lord Jesus was asked, Teach us to pray. I've been asking that question for almost 37 years, since I became a Born Again Christian. I finally found the book that is transforming my life. My problem with the book is that I want to read it non-stop cover to cover. The suggested method to reading this book is a chapter a day, which is very wise of the authors to suggest it. Once the chapter is read, the rest of the day the mind mulls over what it read, preparing you for the next chapter. What is the name of this great book - The Battle Plan for Prayer by Stephen and Alex Kendrick. They also produced the movie War Room for which the book is taken after. My prayer life has taken on a whole new dimension as I'm learning how to pray, not just praying randomly, but effectively. One thing I've wanted to do for a long time was to host a small group for church. My problem was in not knowing what topic I would present. That is no longer a problem. I know what it would be - Prayer. I talked to the Associate Pastor yesterday about doing just that, and he was open to it for next fall. It's good it's next fall as it will give me time to finish this book and get the necessary materials to do a good group study on it. My passion has always been prayer. Now I'm learning how to pray effectively. I'm also starting to see answers to the prayers I pray. I'm excited with the new change in my life, and if any of you want to know how to pray effectively, I highly recommend this book. It will change your life. The picture is mine of the book. Thanks for reading.
