We long for God to be working in our church fellowship, and we know we're meant to be praying for our church. But often when it comes to it, we don't quite know what to ask for. Or we feel our requests to God are shallow, repetitive and stuck in a rut.
That's where this little book is designed to help. It will equip you to pray powerful prayers for your church family—prayers that really change things, because they're based on God's word.
Each spread takes a passage of Scripture and suggests 5 things to pray for an aspect of church life. Because when we pray in line with God's ...priorities as found in his word, our prayers are powerful and effective (James 5 v 16)—and that's a truly thrilling prospect.
Use in your personal devotions, with a friend or as a church.

It's not that there's anything wrong per-say with this book, but it just felt like par-for-the-course suggestions on a 3 par mini-golf course. If you If you have a poor prayer life and don't know what to pray, this may help you. If you have a deep prayer life already for your church, this will be basic. It just felt nice, but definitely not inspiring or enlightening.

We're working through this book in our mid-week prayer meetings for the second time in five years. It gives excellent direction to pray for significant areas of need in the life of the church. And at the same time, the book helps everyone learn how to use scripture as a basis for their prayers.

A great resource for those wanting to grow in prayer for those they know and love. Relatively small in size but not in substance. The attractive clear formatting makes it a pleasure to use. A very helpful and thoroughly Scriptural resource.
