The Battle Plan For Prayer – Book Review
Do you hunger for a deeper prayer life but aren’t sure where to begin? Have you tried to establish a daily prayer habit but never had much success in getting it off the ground? If so, consider The Battle Plan For Prayer – From Basic Training To Targeted Strategies by Stephen and Alex Kendricks essential reading!
The Battle Plan For Prayer was written by the award-winning siblings who brought us War Room, and is designed to teach us how to pray powerfully and to cultivate a deeper relationship with God through prayer. The brothers write:
Answered prayers aren’t merely highly unlikely coincidences. They are fingerprints of a loving God who invites all of us to draw closer to Him, the one who made us all and “is not far from each of us, for in Him we live and move and have our being.” – (Acts 17:27-28)
That is our hope for this book – that you not only experience the joys of answered prayer more fully, but that you’ll get to know God more deeply and fellowship with Him more personally as you travel these pages.
The Battle Plan For Prayer is a wonderful resource filled with everything you need to lead a more prayerful life!
Fervent – Book Review
I will say this up front: I absolutely loved Fervent – A Woman’s Battle Plan For Serious, Specific and Strategic Prayer! Fervent is written by Priscilla Shirer, the daughter of Dr. Tony Evans, and one of the stars of War Room.
What impressed me most about Fervent and what drew me in from word one was Priscilla’s ability to convince us of how urgently we needed to pray – about how real the spiritual battles we face are – about how devious and cunning a spiritual enemy we have. She impresses upon us that we are at war – that at every moment of the day, our enemy is actively scheming against us and doing a very effective job of keeping most of us from praying – and provided us with time-tested battle strategies to fight back.
Priscilla writes:
This is war. The fight of your life. A very real enemy has been fighting and scheming against you, assaulting you, coming after your emotions, your mind, your man, your child, your future. In fact, he’s doing it right this second. Right where you’re sitting. Right where you are.
But I say his reign of terror stops here. Stops now. He might keep coming, but he won’t have victory any more.
Because it all starts falling when we start praying.
Fervent is a book you need. I encourage you to add it to your spiritual library today!
This Means War – A Strategic Prayer Journal – Book Review
If you’re looking for a way to engage your teens in prayer, This Means War – A Strategic Prayer Journal is written with them in mind!
This interactive journal is formatted as a prayer boot camp that encourages teens to tackle their biggest questions about prayer in a way that’s both personal and purposeful.
This will be a fun and effective book for teens to work through!
Prayer Works – Prayer Training And Strategy For Kids
Prayer Works is a combination devotional / activity guide, written for 8 to 12 year olds, that helps children in this age range discover how prayer works and just how powerful prayer is.
The first half of the book contains thought-provoking devotions and prompts that teach children how to pray biblically.
The second half of the book contains perforated journal pages that kids can use to write specific prayers and post them on the walls of their prayer room – just like the characters in the movie!
Peter’s Perfect Prayer Place
Peter’s Perfect Prayer Place is an illustrated story book – written for children 4 to 8 years old – that teaches young readers an important lesson about talking to God! When Peter sees his Mom pray in her special prayer room, he searches for a special place of his own to pray – and learns that no matter where he prays, that God hears him!
What I like most about this book is that there is an interactive page of questions at the end of the story to help parents discuss and reinforce the lessons with their children – as well as stickers that children can use in their prayer journals to track when they pray – and when God answers!

Sorry I left the incorrect information. I follow Create With Joy on Goodreads under the name Julie Waldron.
War Room had a significant impact on me. I am challenged to pray more consistently, to pray according to the Father’s will, to be aware of the enemy’s schemes, and to fight the good fight of faith through the power of prayer.
I would love to receive the book collection inspired by War Room.
How wonderful that the movie impacted you so Peggy! Best of luck to you in the giveaway!
Awesome!! So exciting
