Prepare for a Powerful Prayer Life

Linda Evans Shepherd has quickly become an authority on prayer. I have read several of her books now and they are such an encouraging resource. I recommend having a few of these on your shelf for times when you need a reminder of God's power and our ability to pray to Him.

When You Need to Move a Mountain is an especially great book to pick up when you are feeling the pressure. This book starts with some background on prayer and then gets into very specific types of prayers, like "Prayers to Break Strongholds," "Prayers for Our Families," and "Prayers for Healing." Each chapter includes a Bible verse, narrative, section on "Intercession Advice," an area with Bible verses to prepare your heart for prayer, and then a sample prayer to pray. I really like how practical it is but also how passionate this book made me about prayer. Isn't that something we all need, as Christians?

Expect this book to change your prayer life--in a really good way. The words "intercessory prayer" were something I reserved for really holy people like Pastors... but this book will help you to really realize the power of prayer.
