Christian Non-Fiction review by C. Thomason

Was just reading a bit about prayer in Sandra G. Kennedy’s book“The Magnificent Word of the Lord” (2011)

“If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you.”
~ John 15:7

“This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us. And if we know that he hears us—whatever we ask—we know that we have what we asked of him.”
~ 1 John 5:14-15

“Lord, we know that the effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much. By Your blood, we have been made righteous. We desire to have an effective prayer life–the kind of prayer life that brings powerful change to our circumstances and to those of others. Lord, as we pray, help us to believe, that we may receive. Lord, help us to remember to seek Your will concerning what and how You would have us pray. Help us not to grow weary in well-doing, but to press in and press on in prayer. We thank You, Lord, that You are making us into prayer warriors.”
