God's system of answered Prayer! God's Word is alive and powerful. It is living substance. It is law in the world of the spirit. Prayer is governed by spiritual laws and is designed to work for you. It is more powerful than the laws of nature that rule the universe today. Many times our prayers have bound God. When you learn to pray faith-filled words, you release God's ability and bring Him on the scene in your behalf. Your Legal Right! Under the New Covenant contract sealed by the Lord Jesus Christ in His own blood you have a legal right to enter the throne room of God. You can stand in God's presence without fear and be completely free from a sense of guilt. You can ask God to intervene supernaturally in your behalf. God's Word never changes --It changes things! God gave you His Word to put you over. He designed it to work in every area of life. His Word works, and it isn't limited by time or distance. Effective prayer using His Word will destroy the kingdom of darkness and release the ability of God in the earth. Learn how you can pray God's Word to obtain victory over obstacles and difficulties in life.
At the beginning of this book, my yellow highlighter was fresh. At the end, my highlighter is waning. And it's not a large book. But I highlighted something on every page. I've heard messages on prayer my entire life, in fact my parents even know this author (although I've never met him), and I read it in awe. My entire view of prayer has changed and enhanced!
I always learn so much studying with Charles Capps. This, like most of his books is a gem, packed with revelation, Bible verses and analogies to help you see truths in action. Highly recommended.
I love Charles Capp's books and have read several. This book, Releasing the Ability of God Through Prayer was first copyrighted in 1978, proof that God's Word never changes. I want to read this book again, more slowly next time, so I can take notes. There's so much food for thoughts within the pages. My faith in the power of prayer will never be the same, I've been taken to a whole new level from reading this book. I highly recommend this book; you will be glad that you read it.
Pray without ceasing. Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours. Pray, release your faith (believe, stand resolute knowing God will answer your prayer) and give thanks. Once you pray according to the word of God, He will receive. Bless the name of Jesus!
This subject matter of this book is incredibly important. No other book has made me feel so empowered. We can get so lost in cliches both in and out of scripture, but the author reexamines who God says He is and takes Him at his word.
Okay, this book surprised me a lot!! I am realizing a lot of Christians don’t have faith when they pray. They say “oh God, I’m sick, help this mountain move” but don’t realize the authority they have to say to the mountains “move!” and still come under agreement with the identity of sick rather than reprimanding the symptoms in Jesus name to flee. People are so impatient with prayer, like the imagery he gives of impatient gardeners uprooting all seeds after a day of no answer believing it not to be “working.” But to have faith even when it’s not “working?” Jesus asked, “will the son of man find that kind of faith when he returns?” I pray it would be so! He says we have the authority to ask for anything in His name; do we believe him? Or are our prayers filled with doubt? I know for me, too often they’re filled with doubt. A posture of “well, we’ll see if this prayer works I guess.” But heaven cannot fulfill a prayer filled with doubt. It is faith that activates prayer. I’m blessed that a friend gave me this book!
We think praying is the object but it isn't. RESULTS are what we are after. And results are at your fingertips when you learn to match your everyday words with your prayer words from God and speak only them. It will take concentrated effort but it is worth every drop of sweat, blood, and tears. Praise God for Charles Capps.
