Prayer Ministry

Praying the Proverbs takes writings of wisdom literature from the Bible, and turns them into personal prayers that edify believers with its wise sayings on character, integrity, and love.

Christian faith isn't blind obedience to a set of rules and regulations; it is entering into a relationship with a God who pursues us - not to punish, but to love. As the leader of Central Christian Church in the self-proclaimed "Sin City, U.S.A.", Jud Wilhite has seen it all, and he knows that no matter how far someone has strayed from God, God always remains in passionate pursuit.

It's easy to pray for others' needs. If God takes a long time in answering - or answers with a no - it's easier to take. Far more difficult is focusing on your own needs, when sometimes you don't get the answers you want. What do you pray when life gets hard or even unbearable? When you lose a spouse or a child? When your health deteriorates? When your spiritual life seems barren? Linda Evans Shepherd knows what it's like to pray in the most dire of circumstances.

Do you want to make a difference with your life, but you're having trouble moving on from your past? "Follow me," Jesus told his early followers, "and I'll show you life as it was meant to be lived." Nick Hall reminds us that Jesus says the same thing to us today: "Trust me. Follow me. Come to me dirty, and I'll clean you up. Come broken, and I'll reassemble the parts. Come desperate, and I'll replace pain with joy. Come to me with all your questions, all your confusion, all your fear. I can reset your purity, your self-image, your faith. Come."

Billions of people don’t know Jesus, but God has given you and me the power to change that—and it all starts with prayer. As you pray for people by name, Jesus gives you His love for them and begins to open their hearts to the Gospel. In By Name, Brian Alarid will equip and inspire you to pray for people and lead them to Jesus using the five lifestyle habits that Jesus modeled: pray, listen, eat, serve, and share. This book will help you love people like Jesus and impact your friends, family, neighbors, classmates, and co-workers for eternity.

Todo hombre fue nino una vez. Y todo nino tiene suenos, suenos grandes: suenos de ser heroe, de vencer a los malos, de hacer proezas audaces, y rescatar a la damisela en apuros. Toda nina tambien tiene suenos: quiere que su principe la rescate y vivir una aventura grandiose a sabiendas de que ella es la bella.

Chaplain Kate Braestrup, the New York Times best-selling author of Here If You Need Me, has written a compelling new book on prayer for which her devoted fans have been clamoring. Beautifully written, with her astonishing signature stories of faith in action in real life, Beginner's Grace explains how to tap into grace with prayer - as well as how to pray, when to pray, and what to pray.

If ye have faith and doubt not...all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive. Why are many Christians often defeated? Because they pray so little. Why do most Christians see so few brought out of darkness to light by their ministry? Because they pray so little. Why are our churches simply not on fire for God? Because there is so little real prayer. We may be assured of this: The secret of all failure is our failure in secret prayer. The Lord Jesus is as powerful today as ever before.

Is your spiritual life more like a fast-food run than an intimate dinner for two? Whether it’s the busy mother’s wish to be Wonder Woman—minus the metal bra—or battles with an exploding hot water heater, or fighting the "Resolutionary War" of New Year’s Day, Mary Pierce understands the dilemmas of being a woman in today’s 24/7 world. From disorganized misery to extreme organizational mania. Pierce deals with our fumbling attempts to grow closer to God, encouraging us as she invites us to laugh, cry, love, embrace life, and pray!

See the lavish grace of Jesus's love for you.... As Christians, we commonly portray grace as something that comes to us in the form of a paycheck and healthy bodies. By wading into the deep end of suffering, I have learned that God's grace is much more evident in the mire and the dung of life. Amid deep pain and suffering, I found myself at the grace-filled cross where his glory is revealed in the unseen as I struggle with what is transient.

Maybe you don’t believe in prayer. After all, prayer means talking to someone you can’t see about things you can’t control. What’s the point?Whether you’re a longtime Christian who needs a shot of adrenaline to reenergize your prayer life or a skeptic who doubts whether prayer works, this book is for you. Here, you’ll learn about people who confronted the same doubts and others who beat seemingly unbeatable odds with prayer, like the author.

People fast for many reasons: to break an addiction, to seek God for healing, to discover the answer to a lingering problem, and some fast for revival. But the greatest reason to fast is to get to know God intimately and to feed on the bread of life. This book is not an instruction manual on the methods of fasting or on how to pray. Rather, Dr. Elmer Towns describes the spirit of fasting that leads to an intimate knowing of Jesus Christ.

Do you know why God created you? The Bible says that God created us to love us and that he desires to have a close and intimate fellowship with us. The father has given us the gift of prayer to be able to have constant fellowship with him. Full of valuable lessons, this humbling and patient life story shares how God orchestrates the steps of author Barbara Kimball's life by using scripture to call her to pray for herself and others.

In wondrous contrast to silent idols, the one true God speaks. He addresses his people in love, and it’s their great privilege to answer him in prayer. At its root, prayer isn’t mere self-expression or a prod to get a silent God to speak, but it is a learned skill to answer God’s initiating word in Christ. Through this thoughtful book, author and pastor Daniel J. Brendsel explains how responding to God can nurture prayerful engagement with Scripture, shape healthy rhythms among God’s praying people, and spur excitement for communion with God.

Jim Wilson prayed his first real prayer at a Youth for Christ meeting on the night of October 18, 1947. He was introduced to the father through Jesus Christ, and his life was changed.
