Throughout the Bible are many powerful and moving examples of prayers from men and women who sought a priceless and indispensable friendship with the Father. 101 Most Powerful Prayers in the Bible contains a sampling of those orations, including prayers of need, thanksgiving, joy, guidance, healing, and wisdom, and resisting temptation-simple reminders that God is only a prayer away.
**** Prayer is not meant to be handing God your wishlist, despite what many believe. It is meant to be a two way communication with the Heavenly Father, praising, thanking, interceding, and occassionally, asking. One of the most powerful ways to do this, and a good way to learn how to pray, is to pray the scriptures. The Bible is filled with prayers left by our ancestors in faith. The Rabeys have selected the 101 that have meant the most to them, some of them from the books that many ignore and have to hunt for when the pastor says look up such and so book. The verses are then tied to their own experiences in a way that makes them real and applicable to daily life. In some cases, the story will speak to your heart as much as the scripture does. In this way, they prove that the Bible is a living book, relevant today as it was when recorded. **** Reviewed by Amanda
