Moving Mountains: Praying with Passion, Confidence, and Authority [9780718088590]

Overview

Experience the power of prayer in a whole new way as you learn to pray with confidence and assurance.

Join New York Times bestselling author John Eldredge as he offers you a step-by-step guide to effective Christian prayer.

Everyone has a reason to pray. We long to see God come through for us and those we love. But sometimes he doesn't, and where does that leave us? Are we doing something wrong? Does he not hear? How come some people's prayers seem more effective than others? We ask these questions, and then we lose heart and give up on prayer—the very weapon God has given us to not lose heart.

In Moving Mountains, John Eldredge helps you navigate these difficult questions and offers a hopeful approach to prayer that is effective, relational, and rarely experienced by most Christians. When you discover that prayer is not just asking God to do something—prayer is a partnership with God—new possibilities open before you. We are God's sons and daughters, given the authority of Jesus Christ; we have a greater role in prayer than we ever thought. You will discover how to experience the power of daily prayer and learn the major types of prayers, including:

• Intervention
• Consecration
• Warfare
• Healing

In a world filled with danger, adventure, and wonder, we have at our disposal prayers that can transform the events and issues that matter most to us and to God. You personally have a role to play with God in bringing about that change through prayer. It may sound too good to be true, but this is your invitation to engage in the kind of prayers that can move God's heart as well as the mountains before you.
