Violent Prayer for your Adult Children: Powerful, Effectual, Fervent, Steadfast and Relentless, Fearless, Unwavering and Violent Prayer for your Adult Children

Rate this book
Michael says... If you are looking for a nice, pleasant and general book on prayer, this isn't it... This book was written for those who need miracles. In this book, I address the kind of issues and prayer needs that our adult children face and how we as parents can bring them before the Lord and see His power displayed in their lives. I share the instruction the Lord has given me over the years praying over my own children and seeing God powerfully move. I also share some of the miracles that God has wrought in the lives of my family to show just how real and present the Lord is. I share how to pray effectively concerning jobs and career issues, relationships and children, their walk with the Lord, redeeming relationship with them, addictions, health and healing and much more... . For those of you who don't find a specific enough answer in this book, I show how you can contact me so that I can address your issue and I will place it in this book for you as well as others to benefit from. Thank you and God bless you.

excellent prayer foundation

The author spends time to lay the foundation and scriptural authority for prayer. The word based prayer examples are wonderful. I highly recommend this book.

Much Encouragement

The author challenges his readers to do, really, what we are all expected to do - believe! Am I saying this book was bit necessary to write? No! Far too many Christians have no idea of what God could, and wants to, do in our lives, very often because they are relying on their own strength, wisdom, and power (which ain't much!). My husband and I do pray this way, but at the time I bought this book, we were facing a situation with one of our adult children that seemed insurmountable, and Michael's confidence in what God can and will do encouraged and strengthened me. He's right - take the promises of God seriously!

I needed this

Thank you for this book I have received great counsel for my children. You have covered so many things that I will never have thought of and you have outline the prayers in such a way that I don't need to go too far it is made available for me in this book. I believe that my children's lives will be better off now that I am aware and have this great resource to pray them into what God designed them to be in the first place. Thank you and God bless you sir for writing this book. I am going to look for all your other books

Honest, real and powerful

I read this book in just a few hours & I enjoyed it tremendously. It gave me encouragement & hope. There were scriptures throughout, as well as testimonies, but I really appreciated the sample prayers. The point that spoke loudest to me was that I should never give up in prayer. I am stirred to pray and seek God until I see the answers happen! Glory to God!

Awesome Book

I enjoyed this book thoroughly. It was exactly what I needed for what I am facing with my children today. I'm seeing God move and this book gave me the encouragement to keep on, God is faithful. Many of the things testified about are what I am or had been going through with my children. It helps to know you're not the only one! Thank God for his children's obedience, it truly blesses others!

Great book

Thank you to the author for writing this incredible book. I picked it up and started reading it at just the right time and I am believing in mighty miracles in the name of Jesus for my children and grandchildren because of the prayers and principles outlined in this book. I highly recommend this book to any Christian parent or grandparent whose child or grandchild is going through difficult times and needs prayer. I believe this book can be life changing.

very informative for parents of wayward adult children

Violent prayer for adult children, is a compelling and informational read. Not only does he teach you what scripture says, but he map out every prayer to be used according to the scripture. He leaves no stone unturned when praying for situations for your adult children. I believe this is an excellent tool for parents who need guidance on how to effectively pray for their adult children.

Powerful and practical prayers

The author uses relatable illustrations, and gets right to the point even providing prayer starters and examples. I've already recommended this book to parents i know whether their "children" appear to be on the strAight and narrow, or far from God prodigals. It's a resource i will frequent.

I did like this book, easy read

Enjoyed this book. Was looking for a book to assist in praying for my 3 sons and this gave a well needed refresher. Never been a parent of Adult sons. Just when I thought I mastered teenage years they changed. Good to know my prayer life doesn’t much.

POWERFUL INSIGHTS INTO THE POWER OF A PARENT'S PRAYERS

This book provides much-needed insight into the weapon we have been given to fight the devil on our children's behalf. No one but God loves them more.

Wonderful word

It was so wonderful. To be able to read something so well thought out, it brought to me a break through for more explicit and concise prayer. I loved it that I could pray with more power for the things that matter most.

I enjoyed this book as I am constantly praying for my son and sometimes I feel my prayers can get generic. This book brings up different things that need to be prayed for in an adult child and then I take them and make them more personal for my son.

24/7 Prayer help

I always thought I was crazy that I would wake up in the middle of the night feeling the need to pray for someone. Now I see it as God nudging me to keep praying.

A shot in the arm for my prayer life

This is a fantastic book! It has given a shot in the arm for my prayer life. I can boldly stand up in the authority given me by my Father and declare out loud that enemy's schemes against my family are defeated. No longer need I sit back passively and watch my precious ones suffer. God has shown the way with this book to boldly address problems in my family and defeat the dark schemes that threaten our relationships and our fulfillment of God's will.
