Prayer Strategy Resource Book

Do you want to jump into the stream of God's blessings and float along and say, "At last it is happening to me."? Ruth Shinness teaches how the average anybody can fine tune their prayer life with scriptural skills, so the heavens will burst forth with the blessings Jesus died to give them. Ruth has published 10 books plus "Unlocking the Heavens," her own story of how God worked these incredible Prayer Strategies into her life as she prayed in her own revival and ministry. She reports that the 'Go-Ye' page sent her forth all over the world speaking and doing seminars. The 'Prosper' page paid her way. The 'Lost' page made her a soul winner and brought her into a deeper repentance. The 'Knowing Jesus' page brought her into the presence and fellowship of Jesus Himself. The 'Children' page changed a heartache into a victory. Ruth believes that many Christians are a treasure house, waiting spring forth into God's program and ministry just tailor made for them. Ruth's way of prayer activated the Word of God so it is not about you doing the work, but Jesus working His will in and through you: not about you, but about Him, and it is like you are going along for the ride and being amazed at every turn as He unfolds the goodness He has been waiting to give you.

Can prayer become a favourite enjoyment? Absolutely. God is the guarantor of prayer joy and he invites us to a journey beyond duty and sameness. It means being stretched and changed, but we get to live the prayer enjoyment adventure he designed for us. Prayer is the core and the cutting edge of life in Christ and is much too important to lose through non-enjoyment. The Lord has given us a frame for enjoyable prayer: his constant presence. In that frame we become pray-ers marked by raised heart living and hunger for him. Part I of the book captures the “Wow!” of life in God’s company and explains how awareness of his presence can make a difference to prayer life. Part II gives the how-to of breaking new ground in enjoyable prayer. The Lord is the first speaker in the prayer relationship and learning to shape our praying as a response that agrees with him is a mix of desire and discipline. The reader gets to explore that mix by following four pathways for using Scripture to shape prayer. But even shaped praying can become dull and tired, unless we stretch our prayer language to give the heart a bigger expression. The section on visual language explains how. Praying together can be powerful and enjoyable when done in agreement. The agreement-building keys given will enhance corporate prayer, and can be used in large and small group settings. Growing in prayer enjoyment is not about self-indulgence; it’s a journey for God’s pleasure. The book climaxes with a call to live missional prayer lives, to be ‘pray-ers on the move’ who are passionate about voicing responses to the Lord in any place and at any cost, for the joy it brings him.

Offers a guide to fighting back against Satan's temptations though the use of prayer, outlining advice on developing personal prayer strategies to counter the enemy's diverse assault strategies.
