Bestselling Author and Pastor Offers Hope through Praying the Scriptures
What do you do when prayer feels futile, an endless rehashing of your problems? If one of the most practical reasons we pray is to obtain strength from God, then we need to understand how that happens. Prayer is about more than making requests. In addition to our agony and questioning, Scripture teaches us to also offer up our surrender. We can voice not only loneliness, resentment, and frustration but also peace, hope, and worship. When we let Scripture teach us a breadth of prayers, we begin to be filled with God's fresh life.
Interweaving his own story of inner torment and physical illness, Kevin Johnson takes you through nine key Scripture passages that will lead you to find peace. Each passage is broken down into smaller portions, paired with short phrases to prompt you to pray Scripture back to God--and learn how to talk to him in your pain.
