When God's people pray, they want answers. Yet many Christians don't know how to pray both effectively - in a way that gets results - and humbly - in a way that aligns with God's will. Prayer is a powerful weapon against the true adversaries of God's people: principalities, powers, dark rulers and spiritual wickedness in high places. These forces are the perpetrators of all kinds of evil: Addiction, abuse, poverty and spiritual bondage run rampant through families, churches, cities and nations. What can believers do to battle these forces? They can pray. Not just any prayer: the prayer of petition, known throughout Christian history as the prayer that gets results. Prayer of Petition explores this powerful prayer in detail, from the many examples found in God's Word to more recent instances of incredible miracles ushered in by this prayer. Readers will learn the biblical definitions of petition and supplication, and examine the key components of preparation, thanksgiving and humility. As readers learn to petition the Ruler of All, their confidence that God will prevail - no matter what - will grow, and as they learn to rest in His promises, peace will reign over their hearts through the coming revival.

Is there any eternal value to your day job? Is it possible to find gospel meaning in your "secular" career? If you really love Jesus, shouldn't you quit your job and go into full-time ministry? How does your everyday work have anything to do with God's mission in the world? Many marketplace Christians have wrestled with these questions in their lives and in their work. But from entrepreneurs to assembly line workers, from high-paid execs to minimum-wage hospitality staff, more Christians are becoming overwhelmingly filled with renewed purpose as they realize that their work has a role in God's kingdom plan. In Missional Marketplace, author Erik Cooper offers his perspective through personal stories and reflections on the sacredness of all work, framing the faith and work discussion through the lenses of The Great Story, The Great Commandment, and The Great Commission. This book will create a gospel-collision between your faith, your work, and the global mission of God in this world.

"At some point in his life, Job learned to praise God during the difficult circumstances that came his way. He knew that his blessings came from God and that it was not his own ability that produced his prosperity. By directing his thoughts and his confession on God, Job's faith was increased, his thanksgiving abounded, and Satan was unable to destroy him. Do you have the kind of faith in God that produces praise through every circumstance? As children of God, we have to learn, as Job did, to cultivate that attitude of praise in our lives. 150 Days of Praise will change your life as you learn how to practice praise, bringing victory to the believer, defeat to Satan, and a greater intimacy with God." --Jelly Valimont (1st lady at Griffin First Assembly) LOVE: Our love level with God grows in moments of intimacy. Intimacy is such a warm word. It means you get close, cuddle up, and you experience each other in private ways. Intimacy with God means you climb up in His lap, He whispers sweet words, and your heart heals from wounds and pain.
