This book, help my prayer life a lot

This is a very knowledgeable and interesting book for learning.

Myles Munroe has explained the purpose and process of prayer in such a simple manner. Clearly laying down what is already in God’s word for ease of understanding. If you are looking to engage more in prayer this is a great place to start. It also makes it all practical and not as daunting as other make one feel.

I learned so much from this book. Tea recommended if in search of praying.

I had a great time reading this book. The author is well versed on the subject and walk you step by step on learning how to pray as a beginner. Highly recommend this book to others!

This is the first book you will need to get out of a powerless Christian rut. The churches that are emptying out in the 21st century are due in part to this type of powerless review mentioned by Mr. Ingle and Mr. G. Melton. When it comes to power Mr. G. Melton responds, "Myles goes so far as to call man "little gods". Can you imagine. I was horrified that I would expose my small group to this dribble." This the same response Jesus got when he said the same thing Mr. Monroe stated. All power has been given to Jesus but Jesus is not just a head--He has a body and just like us you can't separate the two. Jesus and the Father are ONE. Jesus and His Body are ONE. If you are in Jesus then He is in you. You are joint heirs. Myles Munroe is spot on in this writing. Read then do. You can't evaluate this book by reading and judging if it was entertaining or inspirational without taking on the challenge of dominon on this earth. If you do not take dominion you will be dominated by sickness, poverty, lack, and death. Tell your brain to shut up and read and do. Then decide if the results are worth the read. Mark 11:23-24 For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith. Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them. (KJV) John 14:13 And whatever you ask in My name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. (KJV) John 15:7 If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, ask whatever you wish, and it shall be done for you. (KJV) John 16:27 Until now you have asked for nothing in My name; ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be made full. (KJV) Matthew 17:20 And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you. (KJV) We have to thank Mr. Roy Ingle's review for starting out with a review of some other book than what is listed then preaching his doctrine for the rest of the review. Since preaching is an open for this book review I will mention the following to counter. It is miracles, healings and the power of the believer that is the dinner bell to the world's salvation. Jesus and Paul both preached with sign and wonders following and Jesus said we would do more and be at least, like Him. Jesus is our exemplar. Be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises. And be therefore imitators of God, as dear children. And Exodus 14:15 (God) Why are you praying to me to do something? Reach out your staff and part the waters. I will preach this however, those who have never taken authority can't say you can't take authority. If you do not take dominion you will be dominated. However Mr. Ingle and Mr. G. Melton do make prime representations of Christian religion. Over time, religion has made a compromise of Christianity. It has, in its core taken the place of what Jesus brought to the world. In short, Jesus re-established a direct relationship between man and God. He did not establish a religion, which is in essence a barrier between man and God. So if we remove religion from the Christian it is clearer to understand what Christianity is. Christian religion by its humanized nature is based on a utilitarian shape called a box. It has walls and a ceiling. You are "boxed-in" with religion because it is based on a penalty system of, "if you don't take Jesus as your Saviour then you are going to Hell." Then when you receive Jesus its about who you aren't, and what you can't do or never be. This is the same precedent the Pharisees acted on. They preached on the Laws of Moses while neglecting the Blessing of Abraham. Read this: The Authority of the Believer

I have finally really understood the importance of prayer and likewise my dependency on it to see true change in my life, of those in my family and the whole earth. Prayer allows for God to intervene here on earth as he’s given us the authority to do so in his name. What a revelation!

As I expected so I received. A powerful book wit such powerful words and wisdom. Get on board people!

Dr. Myles wrote in a very clearly and easy to understand style. This book on prayer not only lays down a solid foundation to the purpose, importance and necessity of prayer, it also lays down guiding principles to facilitate the practice of prayer. Thank you Dr. Myles. You've inspired, motivated and challenged me to pray and fast like the longevity of humanity depended on it!
