Synopsis

You can pray with confidence that you are praying according to God's will -- when you pray the Scriptures back to God. Dr Kenneth Boa has selected, adapted, and personalized passages of Scripture to guide and encourage you. Each of these two prayer handbooks offers a different method of prayer. Praying the Scriptures for Intimate Worship guides you through three months of daily prayers of adoration, confession, renewal, petition, intercession, affirmation, and thanksgiving. Praying the Scriptures for Spiritual Growth provides daily affirmations from God's Word that will "renew your mind" as you focus on the attributes of God, the works of God, your relationship to God, the character you want to cultivate, and your relationships to others.

These pocket-sized prayer handbooks will inspire you to a habit of daily prayer -- in words from God's Word.
