Understanding the Purpose and Power of Prayer


Sometimes it’s good to get an “older” book out and read it again to see if it has the same impact today as it did when it was first read. This past week I pulled out Myles Munroe’s book, “Understanding the Power and Purpose of Prayer.” I’ve had this book for about five (5) years. As I scanned the pages prior to reading it, I found every page with different color markers used. I’ve now read the book three (3) times. Even after this third reading it has tremendous impact on me. I thought it important to share information about Myles Munroe and his book “Understanding the Purpose and Power of Prayer.” After you read the review and synopsis, I hope you will order the book for yourself.

It is especially relevant and necessary for leadership development in every aspect of developing countries.

Understanding the Purpose and Power of Prayer
From the Back Cover
"You're in our prayers" has become a cliché, just a nice thing to say when we see someone struggling. But do we really understand the power of prayer?

God, God Almighty, God the Creator of the heavens and the earth, God the Beginning and the End, God the Source of all that is, God the Creator of man--the same God, in all His power and all His majesty, stops and listens when you pray. God has given mankind earthly license for heavenly interference.

Whether you know it or not, you have the authority to change the world through prayer. When God said, "Let man rule over all the earth," He was arranging the dominion of the world so that the partnership of man was essential for the accomplishment of His purposes. He causes things to happen on earth when men and women are in agreement with His will. Prayer is essential for God's will to be done on earth.

Through his unique perspective on this often-misunderstood subject, best-selling author Dr. Myles Munroe takes the mystery out of prayer, providing practical answers for difficult questions about communicating with God.

All that God is--and all that God has--may be received through prayer. Everything you need to fulfill your purpose on earth is available to you through prayer.
The biblically-based, time-tested principles in this book will ignite and transform the way you pray. Be prepared to enter into a new dimension of faith, a deeper revelation of God's love, and a renewed understanding that your prayers can truly move the hand of God.
