Becoming a Woman of Prayer

by Cynthia Heald

Book Overview

Prayer Is Our Response to God's Invitation.
So often we think of prayer as something we do to break through to God--to get His attention and to get Him to listen to us. But intimacy with God is His idea. He has taken the initiative, and prayer is His gift to us. It is an opportunity for us to respond to His invitation to intimacy by calling, crying, and singing to Him. Prayer is our response to the One who has called out to us and desires...

Customer Reviews

Books that are being sold as good when they should not be sold or even given away.

I bought this book (have spent many a dollar here and never been disappointed) with this picture of the book shown as in this review. The book I received was a totally different book than this book. I was written in, highlighted, and underlined in red ink. I am so disappointed with the quality of this book that they sent. I am going to lead a bible study on this and I needed a clean book to make my notes in it before the next lesson; I can't do that now because someone wrote all over this book. Ask for a refund or exchange and willing to pay the extra for a clean book and I can't even call or e-mail customer service to ask how they can make their mistake write. I buy a lot of books for school, life coaching, counseling, and reference books. I buy very good and like new, and new. This book is unusable by a bible study leader. BEWARE of the picture presented and beware of the usable state; this book was listed a good with no reference as to all the writing, underlining and highlighting in the book. Outside cover is in very good shape but the inside is TRASH.

Enjoying a ladies' bible study with this book.

I am looking forward to growing spiritually with this valuable resource.

A life-changing book

Yet another of Mrs. Heald's inspired Bible studies, this one has revolutionized my prayer life. It especially helped me to begin to recognize the enormous role that the Holy Spirit wants to play in my prayers, and how through prayer itself He can increasingly conform me to Christ. I am preparing to lead a small group Bible study using the book, and I expect God to do more life changing--that is my prayer. I would encourage any woman who wants to grow in Christ to study this book.

This book has helped bring me closer to the Lord!

I have a better concept of God's invitation to me to pray, instead of me coming to prayer and hoping that God will meet me there. I now see that it is Jesus who is prompting me to pray, and I am so blessed to understand that the Holy Spirit helps me to pray according to God's will so that I get results! I am excited to see what God wants to show me every time I pick up this book. It has been an "eye-opening" experience. I would recommend this book to anyone who is looking for deeper intimacy and understanding of what a relationship with your Heavenly Father truely is. I am so blessed, and thankful to the author for writing this study for my own personal use!!

This biblestudy knocks me off my feet! YEAH GOD!

I am 18, and I few friends and I started this bible study together to strengthen our prayer life and to also dig deeper into the WORD. My first impressions of the study from the cover of the book were not very encouraging, however the content was so amazing it completely knocked and knocks me off my feet. There is so much to be learned, and even though this study is usually done by women older than I am, I was amazed how deep we were able to get. Often times it took us several hours throughout several meetings to complete one chapter of the study! Yes, it was that indepth! I would highly recommed this study for all ages of women and all levels of faith. This study is well worth the price, and I promise you will learn and grow in more ways than you are aware. Go God!

A very worthwhile study for a small group of women.

I used this study guide in my women's bible study group and they all agreed it was a great blessing. It helps you discover why we pray, when to pray, how to pray and the importance of a great prayer life.
