Are My Prayers Working?
We know Bible reading and prayer are vital to our faith, but what happens when our prayer lives become stagnant and our quiet times grow stale? Worse yet, what do we do when our prayers seem ineffective and our faith falters? Rehearsing the same words over and over can pull us into a rut. Is God really listening to this? Maybe it’s time for something new. In Refresh Your Prayers: Uncommon Devotions to Restore Power and Praise, Lori Hatcher helps you recover a passion for prayer and praise. She tackles questions we often stumble over:
• If God is in control, why bother praying?
• Do I have enough faith for God to answer my prayers?
• Is every promise in the Bible meant for me?
• How can I know God is speaking to me?
If you’re tired of ho-hum prayer time, Refresh Your Prayers is the answer.
