Twenty choices will bring contentment when the world says you aren't enough, closeness born of relationship with God, and peace in times of trial. These choices were made by Daniel, a young Jewish man serving God in a godless society, revered by God, saved from lions. The Daniel Key will lead you to a life-changing faith.
Many people today find that their prayers don't "work." And like a broken cell phone, DVD player, or TV remote, they throw prayer out as unnecessary "clutter" in their busy lives. Anne Graham Lotz has found that while prayer does work, sometimes the "pray-ers" don't. So she has turned to the prophet Daniel for help.
The Daniel Prayer is born deep within your soul, erupts through your heart, and pours out on your lips, words created by and infused with the Spirit of God quivering with spiritual electricity. It's really not an everyday type of prayer. It's a prayer birthed under pressure. Heartache. Grief. Desperation. It can be triggered by a sudden revelation of hope. An answer to prayer, a promise freshly received, a miracle that lies just over the horizon...
Join Anne in a thrilling discovery of prayer that really works.
This book will help readers pray effectively for their nation, for their families, and for themselves. She will answer such questions as:
Does God only hear the prayers of good people?
How do I know the God to whom I pray will listen?
How do I know God cares about my prayer?
How do I know God will answer my prayer?
Why should I pray?
Does it matter where I am when I pray?
Are words in prayer all that matter, or does my attitude affect prayer?
What difference does my prayer make?
The book also includes some of her original prayers that demonstrate the principles taught in The Daniel Prayer.
Where do you find God? Does He seem elusive in your religion? Hard to find in your church? Distant in your experience? Are you doing all the right things but still struggling to find purpose in your life and passion in your faith?
Award-winning author Anne Graham Lotz has known this struggle at a deeply personal level. As she studied Scripture, she found her answer in the amazing story of Abraham, an ordinary man who became extraordinary because he pursued God no matter what the cost. Despite struggling with compromise, fear, family quarrels, failures and disappointment, Abraham became a man God called His friend.
In The Magnificent Obsession, Anne shares her own pursuit of the God-filled life. The desire to intimately know the God of Abraham is now the focus of her faith and the goal of her life, flooding her heart with joyful purpose. Through personal anecdotes, unforgettable stories, and God-inspired insights, she invites readers to draw closer to the God who is as committed to them as he was to Abraham, a God who longs to call them friend.
Many of us go though life knowing that God loves us and trying to serve him by going to church, teaching Sunday school, leading youth group, and serving as a deacon. We set aside time to read our Bibles and to pray, and we teach our children to do the same. But some mornings we wake up wondering if we're missing something. We know God with our heads, but we want to know him with our hearts.
We long to see Jesus, but we don't know where to begin.
Like many others, Anne Graham Lotz, the second daughter of Billy and Ruth Graham, has longed throughout her life to see the Lord Jesus, and to know him on an intimate personal level. Born and raised into a prominent Christian family, Anne knows that God doesn't have any grandchildren and that no one can ride into the kingdom of God on their daddy or mommy's coattails. So she has searched God's Word daily for a fresh touch of Jesus.
I Saw the Lord invites you to undertake a journey with Anne, the journey to experience a fresh touch of Jesus by soaking in God's Word. Using the words of Isaiah, Anne shows us what we've been missing and why we need Jesus. She teaches us how we can see Jesus, who Jesus really is, and how to know if we've seen him.
Chronicling her own and others' struggles to grow in faith, Anne shows the difference a fresh touch of Jesus has made in her life and the difference it will make in yours. If you're looking for more than religion and for more than a one-time religious experience, join Anne in reviving your life and in finding a relationship that will last a lifetime.
