It is a strange phenomenon. When someone leads public prayer, many begin to have a truckload of ideas flood their minds and pour out of their mouths that take them across the landscape, from Ziklag to Kadesh. Others freeze and can barely get a request to come out, especially a petition that makes any intelligible sense. One remedy for roaming and rambling or stammering and stumbling is to type out public prayers. Whether leading a congregation in a corporate confession of sin, or a communal series of prayers, it helps to know there is a thought-out beginning, middle, and an end. This little book is a compilation of a number of prayers for such occasions. This volume hopes to give praying people examples and tools to aid in both private and public prayers. It is also for ministers who would like samples of how to lead public prayers.These prayers are set up to cover either 31 days or 31 weeks. Michael W.

John Piper examines depression from a spiritual perspective, guiding and encouraging those for whom joy seems to stay out of reach.

Nobel Laureate Desmond Tutu has long been admired throughout the world for the heroism and grace he exhibited while encouraging countless South Africans in their struggle for human rights. In God Has a Dream, his most soul-searching book, he shares the spiritual message that guided him through those troubled times. Drawing on personal and historical examples, Archbishop Tutu reaches out to readers of all religious backgrounds, showing how individual and global suffering can be transformed into joy and redemption. With his characteristic humor, Tutu offers an extremely personal and liberating message. He helps us to “see with the eyes of the heart” and to cultivate the qualities of love, forgiveness, humility, generosity, and courage that we need to change ourselves and our world. Echoing the words of Martin Luther King, Jr., he writes, “God says to you, ‘I have a dream. Please help me to realize it. It is a dream of a world whose ugliness and squalor and poverty, its war and hostility, its greed and harsh competitiveness, its alienation and disharmony are changed into their glorious counterparts. When there will be more laughter, joy, and peace, where there will be justice and goodness and compassion and love and caring and sharing. I have a dream that my children will know that they are members of one family, the human family, God’s family, my family.’” Addressing the timeless and universal concerns all people share, God Has a Dream envisions a world transformed through hope and compassion, humility and kindness, understanding and forgiveness.

An accessible, adult, catholic prayer book which can become the well-used friend of the reader -- it can be kept and prayed with. This is not another book for the shelf but to accompany us in our journey. We can add our own comments in the margins, highlight a prayer we will use regularly, add extra ribbons and use the blank pages at the back of the book to supplement this volume with other prayers that we come across which we will find useful. We can make this our working journal of prayer as we lift up our hearts, day by day, to God. When we pray we learn to pray; as we pray we enter into that rich experience of prayer which George Herbert describes in his poem at the front of this book.

A compassionate, shame-free guide for your darkest days “A one-of-a-kind book . . . to read for yourself or give to a struggling friend or loved one without the fear that depression and suicidal thoughts will be minimized, medicalized or over-spiritualized.”—Kay Warren, cofounder of Saddleback Church What happens when loving Jesus doesn’t cure you of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts? You might be crushed by shame over your mental illness, only to be told by well-meaning Christians to “choose joy” and “pray more.” So you beg God to take away the pain, but nothing eases the ache inside. As darkness lingers and color drains from your world, you’re left wondering if God has abandoned you. You just want a way out. But there’s hope. In I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die, Sarah J. Robinson offers a healthy, practical, and shame-free guide for Christians struggling with mental illness. With unflinching honesty, Sarah shares her story of battling depression and fighting to stay alive despite toxic theology that made her afraid to seek help outside the church. Pairing her own story with scriptural insights, mental health research, and simple practices, Sarah helps you reconnect with the God who is present in our deepest anguish and discover that you are worth everything it takes to get better. Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.

What we confess with our lips become means of transportation of God’s deliverance from heaven to man’s need on earth. By our confessions we sow words that will son manifest. This is why, our confession here, is based on the living WORD. This book is called Hundred Percent Confessions and Prophecies as all the sixty six books in the Bible are represented by at least a quotation. It is loaded with confessions and prophecy that shall come to pass. What you profess matters a lot as it will eventually affect you. Positive affirmations abort negative emotion before it can be born. The only successful way to destroy a negative emotion is to verbalise a positive statement. Learn to be positive and speak positive before your helpers. You shall excel beyond human imaginations when God shall arise for your sake. I pray, you shall excel in your career. God bless.
