    5 out of 5 stars A Well-focused Book on the benefits of praying with others.......2006-09-01

    If anyone could write a book about the power of praying, it is Stormie Omartian. If you pray at all, you will want to read this book. It will encourage you to strengthen your prayer habit. If you are curious about the benefits of prayer, or exactly how to go about it, this book is for you. You will be instructed and encouraged to develop a personal prayer habit.
    Once you develop this personal prayer habit, you will indeed experience the truth that there is power in prayer.
    Another great job, Stormie!

    5 out of 5 stars INFORMATIVE & INSPIRATIONAL!!.......2006-08-27

    I am so blessed to have read this book, and so will you be! I am the author prayer books myself, and have spent countless hours in the Word, studying-practicing & living prayer...and every time I pick up one of her books, I am still blessed with new insight and inspiration for prayer!
    In this book Stormie goes into great explanation about the basics of prayer, what it IS and IS NOT...and why God desires us to pray, privately and corporately. She also gives a lot of personal and Scriptural proof of God's call and blessing upon PRAYER IN AGREEMENT!
    This book is very informational about prayer, especially in forming groups and gives alot of examples from her prayer groups and her church! I felt as if I had attended a service or two with Pastor Jack teaching after I finished this book. THEY ARE LIVING PROOF, as IS THEIR CHURCH OF THE POWER OF PRAYER!
    GOD IS WAITING AND WANTING TO DO HIS WILL ON EARTH < IN OUR HEARTS & LIVES...HE IS JUST WAITING FOR THOSE WHO WILL BELIEVE ENOUGH IN HIM TO ASK!
    I am so glad that she also emphasized the beautiful, godly relationships that are only formed as people pray together. I had gotten away from prayer groups (in person) and had only been doing it online or over the phone. WELL, THIS BOOK INSPIRED ME TO RETURN TO THE BLESSING A GROUP OF LIKE-MINDED WOMEN PRAYING TOGETHER, in person as well!!(or of course men and couples). My best friendships and fondest memories, and GREATEST BREAKTHROUGHS have been born in and from "agreement prayer," especially in prayer groups!
    God PROMISES in James THAT IF WE WILL CONFESS OUR SINS TO ANOTHER & PRAY FOR EACH OTHER THAT WE WILL BE HEALED..then, THE PRAYER OF THE RIGHTEOUSNESS PERSON IS POWERFUL & EFFECTIVE!! God COULD just zap us and heal us...but He uses people, and those who will send forth His Word in prayer. He COULD just DO HIS WILL, BUT HE WON'T UNTIL WE BELEIVE This can't be done by ourselves, but in relationship. God created us to worship Him, and to do this privately and TOGETHER!!
    She also does a great job of teaching the importance to be praying "beyond ourselves" for other peoples and countries by praying specifically. When we have a target, we give God something to work with. He gives us the desire and "prompting" to pray for another, so that we may invite His will and power to come in and transform the situation/person with His Love & GLory!
    THERE ARE THINGS THAT WILL NOT HAPPEN>>IF WE DON'T PRAY...AND THERE ARE THINGS THAT WILL HAPPEN, IF WE DON'T...
    If you are ready to learn to pray and stand in the GAP, this book will help to equip and inspire you!! She, as always gives real life stories, great Scriptural teaching, and this time has added numerous quotes from Pastor Jack's sermons on prayer!! ANOINTED & POWERFUL TEACHING!!
    READ THIS BOOK, Prayerfully, AND ALLOW GOD TO WORK, PRAY, AND LOVE THROUGH YOU!!! YOU NEVER KNOW WHO & WHERE GOD IS WAITING TO BLESS>>AND YOU NAY BE THE ONE HE IS WAITING TO ASK!!
    YOU WILL BE MIGHTILY BLESSED AS YOU READ THIS BOOK & DO WHAT IT SAYS!!
    BE SURE TO ALSO READ HER BOOK "THE PRAYER THAT CHANGES EVERYTHING" POWER PACKED PRAYER IS BIRTHED AND USHERED FROM HEAVEN IN PRAISE!!

    5 out of 5 stars Not What I Expected ... But Still Great.......2004-04-28

    After her books Power of a Praying Wife and Power of a Praying Husband, I expected this to be more along the lines of a Praying Couples book. Instead, Stormie went with a look at prayer groups and congregational prayer. This is not a bad thing, in fact I found it an excellent book, but if, like me, you're looking for a book to draw yourself closer to your spouse in prayer, be forewarned that this is not that book. Buy it anyway.

    This book spends more time dealing with the subjects of "what prayer is" and "why you should pray" than her other books. It also goes into how to pray and different kinds of prayers (confession, intercession, etc.). If you're a new Christian or haven't had much of a prayer life, this is an excellent book to get you started.

    The entire book is great, but my favorite section is where Jack Hayford describes people who pray as lightning rods, acting as the conduit through which God exerts his power on Earth (pp. 91-92). There are a lot of powerful word pictures like that throughout the book; that's just the one that hit home with me.

    The only thing I didn't like about the book is that Jack Hayford's comments on prayer are all related in the past tense. Granted, some of them are included as part of actual past events, conversations or sermons, and there it's totally appropriate. Elsewhere, though, the verb tense should have been modified to make them feel more current. It's not a big thing, but it does make his comments feel dated.

    As I said before, if you don't know much about prayer or you don't spend much time praying this is an ideal book for you. If you do have a prayer life, but it's grown stale or could use a good goosing, this book is for you, too. I still think "The Power of Praying Spouses" would make a good book, but I'm glad Stormie has written this book as well.

      There appears to be a world of information on the disks, which makes it all the more frustrating dealing with such a poorly conceived search system. I am sure it would rate much higher if I could get to what I am looking for.

          1 out of 5 stars No real value, look elsewhere.......2007-07-25

          For some books, giving a rating can be hard if your level is different than what a book is focused on. An entry level reader would probably not purchase or rate an advanced book on some topic. In this case whether you are an entry level or advanced level reader, you will be frustrated with how many useless pages are present, the lack of proper indexing, and due to size of some of the documents and dependent upon your hardware is extremely slow to do a simple search. Typical examples are listed below:

          Disk 1 has no index file
          Disk 2 has an index.idx file. I use Acrobat 7.0 which expects index files of type index.pdx, maybe index.idx is for version 6 of Acrobat

          Examples of some larger file sizes from each CD
          * disk 1 has "EERE Solar RE.pdf" 372,096 KB - 17,101 pages
          * disk 2 has "NREL PUBLICATIONS DATABASE.pdf" 230,689 KB - 5070 pages

          The Adobe bookmarks appear to be page titles, in page number order that they appear in the pdf document. That is, the index is not in alphabetical order of the contents that you normally find at the end of a book. While some of the bookmark titles are not very helpful. For example, on disk 2, one document has bookmark ACR919D.tmp is for "Preliminary Energy Analysis of the Pennsylvania Department of Environment Protection's Cambria Office Building Ebensburg". Not all documents have bookmarks.

          Other examples include:
          On disk 1 page 59 was a "Notice to Users" that this is a Federal computer system and is the property of the US Government etc.

          On disk 1 from page 16776 for serveral pages was about W3C and Markup Validation Service, how is this relevant? How about login page for the American Bar Association??

          It appears a web robot has downloaded all the web pages and then automatically transformed to pdf pages. This results in many pdf pages may only have the tail end of what was on the web page, but didn't quite fit onto a single pdf page. It also means web pages that have the optional printer friendly page are also included so there is duplication, normal web page and printer friendly of the same page.

          1 out of 5 stars Solar Energy CD: Incomplete and difficult to use NREL Guide.......2007-03-08

          This is nothing but a collection of existing data which is free from DOE, put on a CD with a very unfriendly indexing and access system. Although it includes a large amount of DOE energy info, much of which is dated and of little interest, it requires alot of time from the user to find data which could be of use.

          May be of value to those people who don't have computers or internet access.

          5 out of 5 stars Oneness- God's perspective on how marriage really should be!.......2000-06-10

          This book accompanied with the 12-week study is the tool that saved my marriage. The reason this is so awesome is because it is true! We all think we know how marriage is supposed to be by watching our parents and the media, but they fail. God's word never fails and with the aid of Oneness and with the Holy Bible, we learned how to stop blaming eaching other and how to focus on allowing the Holy Spirit to guide us in our marriage. If you want your spouse to stop looking at your performance and vice versa, read, study and do what this book and the 12-weeks will teach you! Awesome, Thanks Don and Sally Much Love Donna

          5 out of 5 stars Thanks to Dr. Heitler.......2000-04-26

          Dear Dr. Heitler: I live in New York. The purpose of this e-mail is to say thank you for all of your help during a difficult time in my life. I have spent the last two years trying to figure out what I am looking for and how to have a healthy relationship. I went through a long healing process and think I am ready to get back in to dating. I am going to re-read your book because I think it is the best book I have read in how to have a successful relationship. Thank you again for all of your help. Regards, Bruce

          5 out of 5 stars I married the next person I dated after I read this book!.......1999-09-24

          I don't really think I got married BECAUSE of the book. But after I read the book, I finally could see that it was possible to be married, remain an individual, and still have a deep and meaningful relationship. If you think marriage takes away your independence, read this book--it empowers you.

          5 out of 5 stars Best book out there for improving your marriage........1999-06-06

          Reading this book I finally can understand why my husband and I fight, and how to keep our marriage more peaceful. People shouldn't be allowed to get a marriage license until they read this book.

          Great present for newlyweds and engaged couples. I wish I had this book when I was first married.
