Life-Changing Prayer
Prayer is the force that binds believers together, and when God’s people unite and call on his name, powerful things happen in our world.
Jim Cymbala reveals how prayer can likewise transform your life and your church when you “approach God’s throne of grace with confidence” (Hebrews 14:1), certain in the knowledge that will meet with you, answer your requests, and extend his mercy to you. It is at the throne of grace that you will also receive power to confront your problems without anxiety, and where the Holy Spirit will gradually shape you into a person who impacts others for Christ.
