Publisher's Synopsis
In this concise but scripture-packed prayer journal, Dr. Jack L. Henderson introduces readers to the discipline of prayer, from its biblical roots to its purpose and power in our daily lives. The text is divided into four sections, which Dr. Henderson invites us to move through slowly, meditating on each kingdom-oriented tip before moving to the next. The text covers these foundational categories:
- The general purpose of prayer
- Incorporating scripture into prayer
- Invoking Jesus's name before God
- Praying with specificity
First, learn what makes an effective prayer-our requests must be aligned with the kingdom of God, and we must be fervent and righteous in God's presence. Dr. Henderson then discusses how God established a contract, or laws in the earth realm. Prayer helps us enforce those laws to bind Satan and our own sin. We learn that prayer is only possible because of the remediating work of Jesus, and finally, Dr. Henderson challenges us to be specific and bold as we approach the throne.
This easy-to-use book also provides helpful references, including a word bank and a topical list of scriptures, to enhance readers' study of this priceless discipline. Readers from all backgrounds will be blessed by Dr. Henderson's sound teaching.
