A
Prayer Study Guide by Dr. Willie B. White is designed as an effective, yet
insightful and encouraging guide to increasing understanding and knowledge of
prayer. “Exploring the prayer from Biblical and scriptural (using the King
James Version), practical and relational viewpoints that speak of, “…prayer
from its history, phenomenon, philosophy, practices, patterns, the practices of
prayer, the many different kinds of prayer and what can hinder a prayer's
effectiveness.”
Many
want their prayers to be answered. There is not doubt that is “why” we pray.
This book gives a much deeper understanding as to what prayer is. Prayer is
communion, worship, praise and adoration of God. There are ways to pray
effectively and there are things in our life or attitudes of heart that will
hinder prayer. Unlocking these guidelines, the Bible, the Psalms and many
patriarchs from the Old and New Testament, to include Jesus as our example give
us insight as to what an effective prayer life looks like.
This
book will increase your faith as you explore and learn to approach prayer in a
fresh, new way that will invigorate your relationship with God, bring exciting
answers and give you a mature approach to prayer. For many this book will be a
catalyst to seeing God move mountains in their life. This author has researched
the Scriptures thoroughly and while this works is an exhaustive commentary, it
is a complete joy to read that is founded on the Word of God.
With
the inclusion of many strong Biblical patriarchs (such as Abraham, David,
Solomon, etc), their predicaments and/or prayer that relates how these are
written for our instruction. For example, do you need wisdom? The author takes a look at Solomon, relates
the story of Solomon asking God for wisdom. Concisely, the author then
reiterates how “we” as believers are to understand the themes and scriptures
pertaining to wisdom, gives additional discussion questions, and extrapolates
other verses, and provides a guide of “how” we are to ask for wisdom, giving
the benefit thereof. The author’s ability in her book unveils a strong
preaching anointing, which really gives readers keen understanding, teaching
and exhortation in understanding Biblical concepts and Kingdom principles.
This
book comes as a MUST-READ for all Christians new and mature alike. I cannot
recommend the absolute importance of this book to the readers’ faith.
