Kingdom Prayer

If you want to know the temperature of your spiritual life, look at the thermostat setting on your prayer life. Prayer is the most misunderstood and neglected aspect of the Christian life. It has been estimated that most Christians pray three to five minutes a day. Compare that to the time many spend complaining, and you’ll gain insight into the spiritual and emotional condition of our day. Yet God has constructed the world in such a way that there is much He won’t do in a Christian’s life apart from prayer. Prayer, when combined with faith, can accomplish great things. In this practical and comprehensive overview of prayer, Tony Evans covers a variety of topics, including: Principles of productive prayer The power of prayer and praise Fasting and prayer Prayer and God's purposes Tony’s expositions of various passages on prayer will help you realize its critical importance and encourage you to make it a dominant mark of your life.

Are you praying constricted prayers or disruptive ones? Most prayers are constricted ones. They’re prayers that only focus on one part of the Lord’s Prayer: “give us our daily bread.” They’re usually focused on self and envision God as a heavenly caretaker. Disruptive prayers, on the other hand, are powerful, uncommon, and deeply biblical. They focus on God rather than self, seek to advance the kingdom, and submit all things to God. They are also prayed with a profound belief that prayer actually accomplishes something. When we pray disruptive prayers, that’s when the revolution begins. This book shows you how to equip leaders, fuel kingdom movements, and do real damage to the powers of darkness in the here and now. But most of all, discover how your own heart will be transformed as you begin to see how much bigger prayer, and God, is than you ever thought possible.

The book simplifies prayer and provides an understanding of the importance of prayer in the Kingdom God. God’s plan is that His will be done on earth as it is in heaven through the church. This book encourages and teaches the believer how to pray. It examines how to enter into Gods presence to get results, fight the good fight of faith and establish the kingdom of God wherever we find ourselves. The book concludes by considering the believer’s weapon of war provided by scriptures to obtain victory and enter into the rest purposed by God.

Over the last twenty years, I have composed a catalog of prayers for people from all walks of life. They are spread throughout my various teachings and writings. Countless people have requested these prayers to be compiled and placed in one book. This book is filled with specific prayers for issues common to mankind. Some prayers many people know to pray, and others may not be as familiar. Prayer alone is not enough in so much as, God expects us to be proactive. For example, if we're praying for self-discipline, it won't just fall upon our heads. We must purpose in our hearts and minds to be self-disciplined. We must make better choices. Prayers must coincide with action. Understanding Kingdom Prayer includes 100+ template prayers to serve as a guide for practical application. You will, of course, want to pray according to the leading of Holy Spirit, but this is a template of how to properly apply the Scriptures. With any of God's promises, the idea is to proclaim, declare, and decree those promises over situations instead of asking for God to do this or that. If He's already promised, asking is not required. Rather, we are to apply and stand in faith in His provision and resolve. Praising and thanking God is first and foremost in prayer. We ought never to be a people always asking or using His Kingdom power and authority without first thanking Him for being who and how He is-loving, merciful, gracious, kind, patient, sovereign, omniscient, omnipresent, and omnipotent. Although I didn't write words of praise at the beginning of each prayer, praising must come first according to Matthew 6:9. After praising the Lord, the succeeding prayer should follow. Never neglect thanksgiving of God's grace and mercy. This must come solely from your authentic heart of contrition.

Christians love to talk about politics, but the current conversation is full of contentious words that divide our churches and families. Dr. Tony Evans takes a step back to find foundational Bible principles for integrating politics into our daily lives. He challenges readers to incorporate all of Scripture when addressing divisive issues, forcing us to look at political issues we’ve neglected. Learn to speak with grace when you disagree with family and friends. Maintain your political affiliations without causing divisions in your church. Take sides on moral issues while demonstrating the compassion and love of Jesus Christ. Kingdom Politics offers a biblical path through one of the most divisive issues of our time.
