Book Review: Praying the Bible

This month's book review is for the book "Praying the Bible" written by Donald WhitneyWhat is the book about?All Christians know they should pray, but sometimes it's hard to know how - especially if the minutes start to drag, and our minds start to wander. Offering listeners hope, encouragement, and the practical advice they're looking for, this concise book by Professor Donald Whitney outlines a simple, time-tested method that can help transform our prayer lives: praying the words of the Bible. Praying the Bible shows listeners how to pray through portions of scripture one line at a time, helping us stay focused by allowing God's word itself to direct our thoughts and words. Simple yet profound, this resource will prove invaluable to all Christians as they seek to commune with their Heavenly Father in prayer each and every day.How did the book cause reflection on God’s commandments?What connection did the subject matter have with Christian standards? How did the book impact my faith?Did the book leave me with questions or further reflection?Book SummaryScripture References:Matthew 6:7 (vain repetition in prayer)Ephesians 1:13, 1 Corinthians 6:19 (God's people sealed with the Holy Spirit)Matthew 6:5-13 (Jesus' model prayer to His disciples)Matthew 26:3639 (Jesus' prayer in the garden before his crucifixion)Nehemiah 1:5-10 (Nehemiah’s prayer for Israel)2 Kings 19:14-19 (Hezekiah’s Prayer for Deliverance from the King of Assyria)1 Samuel 2:1-10 (Hannah's prayer or praise for the Lord)Philippians 4:6 (let our requests known to God)Matthew 6:9-13Luke 11:1-4 (Jesus' model prayer)Luke 6:12 (Jesus' all night prayer)Romans 8:26-27 (Holy Spirit's intercession in our prayers) Book Source: www.audible.comNB!
