Prayers that Avail Much

[kdet]

Has anyone read these books? Have they helped you any in your prayer life? I have looked into them but I'm not completely sure about buying them. Is prayer a hard thing for you as it is for me...I'm always searching for the right way to pray.

So many books have been written on the subject of prayer. I haven't read these.

Prayer can be as easy as breathing. Prayer is talking to God in a modest and honest manner, telling Him your needs, telling Him your problems, asking Him for guidance and to help others, and offering Him thanksgiving and praise. Prayer is "closet-ing" yourself with the Lord by keeping your mind on Him. God already knows what we need before we ask (Isaiah 65:24) but He desires communion with us, one-on-one. If you have a burden, pray until that burden lifts and the Holy Spirit gives you peace, then praise God for hearing you. The right way to pray (for me) is simplicity. Don't worry about the words to use--often I don't use words in my mind; it just pours forth from my heart directly to God.

Good wishes.

I use the prayers from Prayers that Avail Much in my prayer life. What I like about them is they include scripture for that particular subject you are praying about. So you can use those scriptures in your own prayers as well and you can see what God has to say about your concerns. I will often pray the prayers from the book and then meditate and speak those scriptures through out the day. For me Prayers that Avail much has been good supplement in my spiritual walk and they have been a faith builder as well.
