When You Need to Move a Mountain: Keys to Praying with Power: A Review

I like books about prayer and this new title by Linda Evans Shepherd is an excellent one on this very important subject.

This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us. And if we know that he hears us-whatever we ask-we know that we have what we asked of him. 1 John 5:14-15.

To pray more effectively, we must: pray to God, through the mighty name of Jesus, in the power of the Holy Spirit. We must pray into the will of God, with faith in the power of the blood of Jesus and in agreement with the Word.

The author tells numerous stories of answered prayer, and, also shares some wonderful quotes regarding Gods promises and prayer.

Evangelist Dwight L. Moody once said, “God never made a promise that was too good to be true.”

The best part of partnering with God for our needs is that we can as Martin Luther explained, “Pray and let God worry.”

Max Lucado explained, “God is able to accomplish, provide help, save, keep, subdue…He is able to do what you can’t. He already has a plan. God’s not bewildered. Go to Him.”

Charles Stanley pointed out, “When you have an unmet need, you first need to pray and tell the Lord what you are facing. Prayer is an act of faith. It declares your trust in God and His ability. Many times He allows a need to come so that He can reach you to trust Him in a greater way. No problem is too complicated or too difficult for Him to handle.”

What would happen if you thanked God for his provision yet to come? A prayer like that would demonstrate your trust and faith in God.

I recommend this book. For more information on this book and for information on ordering a copy please click here.
