Christian Prayer and Intercession. 

[Intro] [References] [Links] 

So let's face it. I'm one of them nerds who love to read. But here's a condensation of a few books that my mind has swallowed if not in whole then in part... 

Actually, there are a whole heap of books on Prayer and Intercession, but not many people have had the time or resources to get to them. There are also a number of online sites whose authors share the same urgency for prayer in these tribulation times. If you're one of them people who literally have to drag themselves to read, well, at least you're trying! 

But first, get your hands on a Bible -- which is the Word of God, more refreshing, more thought-provoking, more challenging, most misunderstood, and also the best manual for living life itself. That Book is the book of all books, if you could learn to read just ONE book in your whole life, just read that (instead of surfing the web like right now...). 

 

References. 

Here's a list of books that I've read, from which I siphoned a lot of insight. They've helped me focus on the details that we would otherwise overlook, but still, they are only a guide to the Bible. Nothing beats the real thing. 

E. M. Bounds on Prayer 
Here is a classic author, one whose devotion to God led him into a biblical research into the life of prayer. 

Intercessory Prayer 
~ Dutch Sheets. 
Why does God need us to pray at all, if He is God? If nothing happens when we pray, does it mean that God isn't listening? 

Possessing the Gates of the Enemy 
~ Cindy Jacobs. 
One of the must-haves of Spiritual Warfare! 

The Voice of God 
~ Cindy Jacobs. 
The book that reduced me to tears page after page after page! There's nothing like 'tuning in' and learning to hear His calling you... *sob* 

Could You Not Tarry One Hour? 
~ Larry Lea 
Based on the LORD's prayer, focusing on just about every word there is to focus on; to actually rethink if you think you know what the LORD's prayer is all about! 

Prayer Warrior Series (6 books) 
~ C. Peter Wagner 
Non-stop examples and illustrations of how God moves His people, of what we can do to avail ourselves to serve Him to the full; on corporate prayer, on spiritual protection etc etc..... a real get-into-it series of books!
