Reseña del libro "Lord Teach Us To Labor In Prayer: Praying Specifically and Strategically (en Inglés)"
Prayer is a vital part of our relationship with God and a powerful tool to advance His kingdom. However, not all prayers are the same. Some prayers require more intensity, focus, and strategy than others. These are the prayers that we call laboring in prayer. In this book, I will teach how to labor in prayer effectively and strategically, following the examples of biblical heroes who prayed with authority and fervor.David was a man after God's own heart who knew how to pray strategically. He faced many enemies and challenges in his life, but he always trusted God and sought His guidance. He also had a well-planned attack when he faced Goliath, the giant who defied the armies of Israel. He used his sling and a stone to hit Goliath's weak spot and bring him down. I will show you how we can pray strategically like David, using God's word as our weapon and targeting the enemy's vulnerabilities.Epaphras was a faithful servant of God who planted the church in Colossae and later joined Paul in prison. He prayed earnestly for the Colossian church, especially that they may stand perfect and complete in God's will. He also wrestled in prayer for them, indicating a strong opposition from the enemy. He was not just praying casually or routinely, but fervently and passionately. We too can pray fervently like Epaphras, using God's will as our goal and overcoming the enemy's resistance.When we labor in prayer, we are not just praying randomly or blindly. We are praying intelligently, with divine insight and direction from God. We are also praying with skill and precision, like a skilled player who can catch or block the enemy's missiles before they reach their targets. We are not ignorant of the enemy's schemes, but we are aware and alert to his attacks. We are also not afraid or intimidated by his threats, but we are confident and courageous in God's power. We can pray intelligently like a skilled player, using God's wisdom as our guide and His power as our strength.I am delighted that you have chosen to embark on this wonderful journey with me, as we explore this next level of prayer together. It is a glorious adventure for those who are seasoned in prayer or eager to grow in it. I believe that as we learn to labor in prayer effectively and strategically, we will see amazing results in our lives and in the lives of others. We will also experience more intimacy with God and more joy in His presence.
