Prayer is the master key that opens the door to the blessings of God. It opens the heart, opens possibilities that are impossible by natural means, and opens the door to God’s presence.
Through a particular and persistent kind of prayer, peace and power flow from God into our lives. The problem is that many people have an experience of prayer that is dull, unimaginative, and lacking power. Their prayer yields few answers and little peace.
Jesus’s disciples said to Him, “Lord, teach us to pray.” Hearing Jesus pray, they knew that they needed to learn how to pray on a deeper level in order to see the miracles and transformation of persistent prayer. In the same way, we need to learn the conditions of prayer that prevail so that we can walk in faith, expect answers, and give thanks even before prayer is answered.
In Prayer 40 Days of Learning to Pray Like George Müller , author Brent Patrick McDougal invites you to take a forty-day journey to discover that kind of prayer.
Each day features a teaching from Scripture and a story from the life of nineteenth-century pastor George Müller, one of the great heroes of our faith. Over a lifetime of ministry, Müller launched multiple orphanages that cared for more than 10,000 children. But not once did he ever ask for donations. Instead, he prayed as each need arose.
Prayer Power teaches everyday people of faith how to pray with the faith of George Müller, expecting answers because our good God is waiting to meet and reward those who seek Him.
One of my favorite books and over the years since the first time I read it I have given away at least a dozen copies to people I think will benefit from it. It filled my heart, answered many a prayer and sent me on a journey to improve my prayer life. It also led me to want to know more about George Müller and I have gotten several books by him and about him. You won't be disappointed and maybe it will change your prayer life.
