Maybe your grandchildren are living with you. Maybe they're thousands of miles away. Their parents may be spiritually rebellious or simply neglectful of the family's spiritual life, failing to make prayer and church attendance a regular part of their routine. But even if your grandchildren's parents have established a strong Christian home, busy schedules, jobs, parenting, and all the distractions of today's world conspire to distract or even destroy the family. How can you, as a grandparent, help? God gives grandparents a sacred trust an opportunity to imprint another generation with the message of his faithfulness. You can stand in the gap by being a godly example for your grandchildren and by praying for them. Even grandparents who already pray regularly for their grandchildren will discover creative suggestions for making the practice even more meaningful. From cell phones to photo prayer journals, you'll find tools that work for you and for your grandchildren. Author Lillian Ann Penner provides specific examples of prayers to help you get started, such as alphabet prayers, prayers based on special scriptures, and prayers for certain holidays. You may even widen the circle, praying for other children in your life, for children who have parents in the military, and for the adults who influence your grandchildren. Regardless of how far away your grandchildren are, praying for them can bridge the distance between you and leave them with an inheritance more precious than gold.

Excerpt from Seed-Grains of Prayer: A Manual for Evangelical Christians The Introduction, or, How to Order Fami ly Devotion, which is found at the beginning of the Week Day Prayers, is another result of many requests. The collection of hymns, and in part also of psalms, was added on motion of a man who is a very dear friend, and well worthy to be an accepted counsellor of others, especially in the matter of hymn selections. Perhaps the guide to an Order of Service, binding upon none, may be a welcome addition to many. The several other minor additions speak for themselves, as well as the greater sequences of the order and rubrics of the separate prayers which appear in many places. May this sixth edition of the seed-grains have the blessing of the Lord and be helpful to His Church. Amen. W. L.

Oral Roberts was barely making ends meet when he discovered the three key principles of Seed-Faith in God’s Word. “They have never failed me,” he shares. “When I had no earthly source or person to turn to, when I was alone with nothing but big problems and challenges facing me, these principles showed me God is my Source. They showed me how to use my giving as a seed I was planting, and to expect God to multiply it even if it took a miracle.” The Miracle of Seed-Faith has revolutionized the lives of millions of people. As you read it, let God show you how you can get your needs met through His eternal plan of seedtime and harvest, sowing and reaping, giving and receiving. Man’s economic systems may fail, but God’s plan never does. By getting into the rhythm of Seed-Faith living, you’ll learn that His more-than-enough resources are always available to you.

"I encourage anyone who wants to have a better grounding in the biblical, historical, and theological basis for believing in the continuation of the gifts-especially gift of healing-to make this a part of his or her library. This book is not milk; it is meat." —Randy Clark Jesus brought people into direct contact with the power and authority of God. Every healing and miracle revealed the glory of God and the reality of His kingdom. Jesus gave the disciples authority to proclaim the gospel of the kingdom, to heal the sick, and to deliver the oppressed. Receive Your Miracle Now presents a strong argument for the legitimacy of a Christian healing ministry in today's church. By studying key passages of Scripture in both the Old and New Testaments, examining the thread of healing throughout church history, and presenting a theological basis for healing and deliverance ministry, Bob Sawvelle demonstrates that through the healing gifts Jesus is still glorified, the sick are still healed, the oppressed are still freed, and God's kingdom advances in the earth, as it ever has.

This book was divinely inspired by God and was birthed during prayer. Its a compilation of several sermons of Bishop Hugh Thomas that highlights the importance and understanding of prayer. To sum him up, he is a "simple man with a complex mind." He believes in kneeology, learning Gods hidden treasures in prayer. In this book, you will learn how to pray the effective fervent prayer, be a living sacrifice, and the benefits of prayer. I can guarantee you havent heard anything like this before because the words are God inspired and not man inspired. How do I know that? Because his words are referenced with scriptures from the Word of God that have been wordsmithed by the Spirit of God. Thats why its important to read and study Gods Word. Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth (2 Timothy 2:15, King James Version).
