Pray Bold: Dare to Ask and Believe Big

Rate this book
Unlock the experience of praying for and getting what you need with #1 New York Times bestselling author Joel Osteen!

At any given moment, God is ready to jump into our lives and act on our circumstances. But we spend so much time overwhelmed by the demands of daily life that we forget the amazing power we have access to as children of God. Our lives are dull and our situations don't change because we are not asking God for the bold desires that are in our hearts. Instead of praying that God will help you survive the day of work at a dead-end job, pray that God will open the doors for you to have your dream job at your dream company. Instead of praying that God will keep you and your spouse from getting a divorce, pray that God will light the way to making your marriage happy and thriving again. 

There is a clear pathway between what we think, what we ask for, and what God does. Transform your life by starting a new way of thinking, asking boldly, and believing big!

What an awesome guide and reminder that great faith results in GOD answering your prayers in great ways. Great faith gets GOD'S attention.

Pastor Joel Osteen asks us, "Are you looking at how big the lack, the debt. the struggle, is or how BIG your GOD is? " He further states, from scripture, " I will lend and not borrow. My cup runs over. Because I honor God. I live under the open windows of heaven, with blessings that I cannot contain."

There is so much wisdom and a myriad of great examples of people having to stand on their faith, when there seemed to be no way out of the difficulty. I ended up with 278 highlights because this book spoke directly to my heart! Words that I will read again and again!

Always Inspirational!

I thoroughly enjoyed this book! Whenever I'm struggling mentally and spiritually, I turn to Joel Osteen to renew my spirit and faith and uplift me. This book was a wonderful read and I would recommend it to my friends. I especially enjoyed the assortment of prayers Joel offered at the end of the book. Joel has a way of feeding our spiritual famine and enriching our lives by bringing us closer to God. I have a lot of Joel Osteen books but this is one of my favorites! God bless me indeed! :) We should all be praying bold!

I consider myself spiritual but not religious and so I wasn’t sure if this book would resonate. But it did! It has reconnected me with prayer. Wishing God’s peace & love to all who read this and to the author as well.
