The trials and pressures of modern life can make the prospect of a fulfilled, meaningful marriage seem impossible. In The Power of a Praying Wife, popular Christian author and speaker Stormie Omartian pinpoints common marital struggles and reveals the miraculous way that disciplined prayer can alleviate heartache and sustain unity. According to Omartian, a marriage's success depends upon "laying down all claim to power in and of yourself, and relying on God's power to transform you, your husband, your circumstances, and your marriage." Omartian attributes the success of her own 25-year marriage to dedicated prayer for every area--however specific--of her husband's life; from his finances and his work to his integrity and his temptations. Each chapter offers insight into areas that are especially important to men, followed by "power tools" (inspiring, topical Scripture) to guide one's prayer life and transform a woman's mind with regard to her husband. This practical read will encourage women to trust God to change their spouse, and undoubtedly refocus one's perspective on God's power rather than one's own personal predicament. --Jill Heatherly

THE POWER OF A PRAYING WIFE.......2007-10-05

Anyone seeking a growing marriage relationship and a growing relationship with God will be thrilled with this book!!
Powerful inspiration.......2007-09-21
This book provides some strong inspiration and guidance into how to pray and how your prayers are answered. A great buy well worth the price
A must read.......2007-08-25
This book is wonderful. I simply started reading with the purpose to be able to pray for my husband. But, this book showed me so much more. It is a must read for all wives, no matter how many years you are married.
Great prayer book for those in waiting.......2007-08-13
I am not married, and not committed, so I did not read this book because my marriage was in trouble. The book was recommended to me as a prayer book to pray for my husband to be. I am a firm beliver that God answers prayers; but I was not sure what to pray for in a husband since I dont have one. The book has 30 chapters, and I made it part of my daily devotion to pray for one thing every day. Reading through Stormie's struggles also gives insight of what to pray for in advance, that you would not experince it in marriage. For instance, Stormie talks about her husband not wanting to exercise, and that after prayers, she heard her husband on the treadmill one day. From this, I get insight to pray that God would give my husband an insight to be health conscious even before I meet him. I have recommended this book to a few of my friends, and would recommend it to one that wants a guide to pray for a husband, and especially when you least want to. Worth the time and money spent into it.

The power of a praying parent.......2007-09-19
Good resource for prayers. I thought I was ordering the book not a prayer supplement but was pleasantly surprised at the prayers. They are very appropriate for raising children. There is space after each themed prayer for you to enter your prayers for your children.

The Power Of A Praying parent is a phenominal book. Its easy lay out makes it ready for reading.

The author Stormie Omartian seeks to keep parents in constant prayer for their children, by outlining specific prayers for specific situtions. Each topic is personialised and is designed to meet each reader at that particular level of their prayer life. My recent purchase was as a result of other parents having a glympse of the book's content and wanted to have the opportunity to really experience the innermost prayers for which it holds. This book of Prayers is far reaching and its content surpasses ones expectations of praying from a "Book"'

Just The Light That I Needed.......2007-09-13
This book was a lifesaver for me. It put light into my dark, dim world. When I found this book, I was in a severe depression, going through a most difficult time in my life. I credit it with saving me. And I give glory to God for putting it in my hands.
No matter where you are in your life, this book will benefit you. You don't have to be as low as I was for this book to bless you. It is a must read for everyone!!
It is worth every dime that it cost and then some. Once you read it, you will want to put it next to your bible and keep it forever.
It means so much to me that I purchase it for everyone that I cross paths with, who seems to be in need of faith, love, comfort, and/or support. I use it as a way to minister to those in need.
You will LOVE it!
Comforting.......2007-03-08
It is because of Stormie that I have grown much closer to our LORD. She has a way of just talking to you and you feel like she is your friend. I have read most of her books and passed them on!
Don't put her books away, share them with your friends and family! They will enrich their lives as well!
I love her books and recommend her HIGHLY!

Don't miss out on this powerfully encouraging book that will bring you peace in the midst of the chaos of a fallen world.
Good enough to read again!.......2006-07-25
I have this book and have read it. I took notes on it, and I plan to read it again!
His light shines brightly, even thru the Celebrate Recovery 12-Steps.......2006-04-21
This is a MUST-HAVE companion book especially if you are going through or contemplating on going through a Celebrate Recovery 12-step group. Although it is not all about the 12-steps, it is applicable to wherever you're at in life and whatever you're faced with.
I can remember the 1st day I walked slowly into a women's 12-step group @ Saddleback, it was the scariest thing but I did it anyway with faith in God, knowing there are VICTORIES awaiting.
As I cleared out my schedule, including relationships, to stay focused w/ minimal distractions and to allow myself to lean more on God rather than others, I found that going thru the Celebrate Recovery participant guides were emotionally exhausting as I've had to dig up hurts, habits and hang-ups from the past and present. I eventually found myself searching for a book that I could read that was applicable to where I was at - preparing to dive into my 4th step (moral inventory). And so when I came across this profound book title 'Just Enough Light for the Step I'm on' by Stormie Omartian, I thought - "WOW, how applicable!"
One of the cool things about this book, aside from that it points me to God in each page and that there are enlightening prayers throughout, is that this book applies to every experience we face in this life, not just while going through a 12-step. You'll identify with much in this book.
I am definitely A WORK IN PROGRESS!
Although I'm not quite close to finishing the most difficult step (4th) yet, I am walking step by step on this journey and path with God and with JUST ENOUGH LIGHT FOR THE STEP I'M ON thru every layer of hurt, habit & hang-up to full transformation, restoration, healing, and countless VICTORIES!
This book, already highly recommended to the women in my step group, will continue to be a constant reference in my bedroom library, along with 2 other books by Stormie, 'Power of a Praying Woman' and 'The Prayer That Changes Everything.'

Every Friday I take a sabbath morning. Each week I read a chapter of this book and pray for my wife. I have read the whole book once already. The succinct and timely wisdom contained in this book cannot be underestimated. I write my wife notes or send her emails or skypes each week to tell her what I am praying about.
Thank you Stormie for the courage and position to write this book.

a wonderful tool.......2007-07-15
This book was/is a huge tool for me, it teaches me how to speak to God and how to pray like I ought to. I would recommend it to anyone who is just barely walking with the Lord and wants to get to know Him better.
A Wonderful book to help you walk closer with God.......2007-06-05
I got the audiobook from the library, and after I returned it I missed it so much that I went out and bought the book. I carry it in my purse so that I have it if I need it. It is a wonderful book to read in any time, weather you are already prayerful and feeling close to God, or when you feel like you are falling away from God and you don't know how to find him. I recomend this book to any woman!
When you can't help yourself.......2007-05-31
There are times when I sit down to pray and the words won't come that this little book has helped me so much. It has the right words to say and the scriptures to help one to say what they feel in their hearts at a time when they need to speak to God. Each daily prayer has scriptures from the Bible to give you strength so you will know that Gods word is right there, upholding each need you have. It is a wonderful pocket prayer book to keep by your side to start the day with. I wouldn't want to be without it.

Tough Times.......2007-05-07
The enemy was trying to convict me and take my new found joy away. I omitted going to my weekly bible study; I had just purchased "The Power of a Praying Women" and the spirit had another agenda for me that night. I got home, ran a tub of hot water and started reading "The Power of a Praying Woman". I didn't stop until I finished the book. Each chapter touched on a test I was being confronted with. Now I am using this book as a devotional. It gets me through rough and tough times. Even if there are no test, trials and tribulations in your life right now, I highly recommend the reading. It will keep you uplifted so when the storms do come, you will have a life preserver. If not for you, you will be ready to help somebody else.
It is a simple way to learn how to pray for yourself...........2007-03-23
How to find this peace in a middle of a crisis, or just when you need to tell God how much you love Him and need Him in your everyday life. I am so happy with this book that I bought copies for my girlfriends and they all found it very inspiring. Stormie has done a wonderful job writing her books. We women who are always praying for everyone else but ourselves this is the book for us. Thank you Stormie!

Complete Therapy .......2006-11-29
Stormie manages to help us see God's truth for what it really is with a straightforward, sincere, down-to-earth conversation-like writing style which gives the realistic, positive and wonderful perspective of our Father's purpose for our lives. LOVED IT!!! Who needs counceling after this book?
A must read for women AND MEN!.......2006-03-03
This book is a must read. I've read it, my husband is reading it and I've bought it for friends. If every person in therapy would read it,their healing time would be cut in 1/2. Combine it with the author's Power of a Praying Wife and Power of a Praying Husband and the divorce rate would be cut in 1/2! Stormy Omartian is a blessing to those of us who didn't grow up in perfect homes, and have not lead perfect lives but want to grow in the Lord and in life! God Bless Her!
MUST READ.......2005-05-13
In the few days it took me to read this book I feel I am a new person. This is a must read for women and men alike. Don't let the title scare you away men. This is a man and a woman's guide to emotional health. I told my sister I would pass it on to her once I finished it but I think I will buy her one for her to keep as I think it will be very helpful for me to go back to from time to time and re-read many areas.
Like Your Own Psychologist!.......2004-11-11
While I believe there is a time and place to see a shrink, there is also a time and place to get real with yourself and look deep within yourself to find the root of your problems.
In Finding Peace for Your Heart, Stormie shows us how vital a role God plays in our healing, and how important it is for us to be willing to look at the root of our problems. It's truly the first step towards healing and spiritual growth.
I read this book with great intensity, found areas in my life that the Lord wanted me to work on, and finished it feeling truly inspired to lean on God more.
EVERYONE's, women AND men, guide to emotional health!.......2004-08-07
I have read countless books for emotional healing. This is by far the best and probably the only one that needs to be read. Unfortunately, the subtitle of the book may turn men away from reading this book. This book is for everyone! For women AND men. Even for those who have not suffered abuse. We all have low points in our lives. This book will guide you through them.

30 Days to Taming the tongue.......2007-07-12
This book is doing exactly what I hoped it would do. I gave this to my teenaged son and it is truly blessing him. I would recommend this book for anyone who is raising a teenager.
A powerful teen book.......2007-01-06
I brought this book for my son during the middle of the year, like most teens he threw it aside, because readinging for school and his bible seem enough for him. Later on he picked it up and to my surprise began to read and share a lot of the contents of the book with his friends. He has been difficult since his dad left. This book deals with real life issues for him and appears easy enough for him to continue reading. He has not finished, but he pours over the pages with him bible next to him. I am in awe of the amount of time spent back and forth from the book to his bible. I think teens kids will get more they bargain for when they read this book.
Not what I was hoping for.......2006-11-07
To be honest, I didn't read the book - I skimmed through, but enough to find that there aren't really any stories that give examples of teens who have prayed, and made a big difference because of it. The content that I saw was good and solid, but in my experience as a youth pastor, I see something with real-life stories as a lot more effective with teens.
A Must Read!.......2006-01-03
Prayer is something that really lacks in a teen's life from my experience. This book shows that it is a neccessity in life. It also shows that any problems with may deal with that God can be there to help you through it all. All you need is the connection with him through prayer. I recommend you buying this for your kid, or buying this for yourself.
I'm a teen, and this book is very helpful........2005-09-11
So far, this is the most helpful book on prayer that I've read. There's many books on prayer that are very lengthly and have lots of theology. But this book is especially meant for teens about my age (13-19). I suggest this book to any Christian teen who wants to have a good prayer life and who really wants to have an intimate relationship with Jesus. The book covers pretty much everything you, as a teen, will need to pray about. For teens that just became a Christian, don't sweat it! This book is definitely for you, as well as for the teen that has been a Christian for a long time. It reviews all the types of things one should pray about to break the strongholds of the enemy so that God can work in your life and in your school and in your family too. I would suggest this book for the mature and for the immature. The strong and the weak. And for every teenage Christian that loves God. Here's a brief overview of the chapters since there isn't yet an excerpt for amazon.com:
1 Lord, help me know you better
2 Lord, help me get free of past mistakes
3 Lord, help me forgive others
4 Lord, help me do what's right
5 Lord, help me stand strong againts bad influences
6 Lord, help me take control of my mind
7 Lord, help me understand your word
8 Lord, help me be free from peer pressure
9 Lord, help me have good relationships
10 Lord, help me praise you at all times
11 Lord, help me find your purpose in my life
12 Lord, help me make wise choices
13 Lord, help me get rid of bad emotions
14 Lord, help me resist temptation
15 Lord, help me be strong when bad things happen
16 Lord, help me be safe
17 Lord, help me speak with words that speak life
18 Lord, help me have faith for the impossible
19 Lord, help me know your will for my life
20 Lord, help me move into the future you have for me
Every teenager seriously must pray for these things. All of these things apply to you, and in this book, will help you. I can't stress enough how important prayer is for your relationship with God. I know you'll enjoy this book and God Bless!

The Power of a Praying Woman Prayer and Study Guide.......2007-01-31
Valuable accompaniment to The Power of a Praying Woman. I used it for my women's Bible study group to help us focus our thoughts on prayer and what we were learning from the book. It asks probing questions to help sort out what we actually believe and see if this lines up with the Scriptures.

Loved it........2005-08-12
Very awesome book! I enjoyed it. Prayer changes things and really works in our lives. I am a full believer in the power of prayer. I use this book to pray for my children.
Terrific - every parent should use this book ... and MAYBE.........2002-03-30
...the world would be a better place! This book gave me the inspiration to start a prayer journal, something I've NEVER done before. I think it's a great idea to write down our prayers, so we can look back and see how they were answered. The answer may not have been what we expected, but the situation worked out better than we had hoped! This book gave me ideas of things to pray about that I had not considered. I guess I always thought praying a simple "keep my child safe" prayer would capture it all, but as the author points out, it's important to pray about specifics! GREAT BOOK . . . now I'm going to try her others.
Teach us to Pray!.......2000-08-07
(...)Thank God for books like "The Power of a Praying Parent", which offers encouragement and practical support for parents who want a deeper, richer spiritual life in the home. For another book on prayer and parenting, look into THE FAMILY CLOISTER: BENEDICTINE WISDOM FOR THE HOME (Crossroad, May, 2000) and THE CHRISTIAN FAMILY TOOLBOX: 52 BENEDICTINE ACTIVITIES FOR THE HOME (Crossroad, Sept. 2001), both by David Robinson.

I bought this book for my Mom and I haven't read it, but she thinks it is a wonderful book. She said that it was highly motivational for her and she enjoyed it thourougly
For Those Helping Others Recover ..........2007-03-21
Lord, I Want To Be Whole The Power Of Prayer And Scripture In Emotional Healing
This is a wonderful guideline for assisting those that are emotionally and spiritually injured - a great resource for pastoral staff in recovery ministry. Ms. Omartian's book emphasizes that the Lord loves us so much that He is willing to bring us back to safety, security, and emotional health (Jeremiah 30:17, KJV):
17For I will restore health unto thee, and I will heal thee of thy wounds, saith the LORD"
What's great about this book, is that you may read ahead and skip around chapters, to address issues that may be applicable and urgent at the time of your life, without missing the essence of each lesson. Bravo Ms. Omartian! Another great read!
Wrong Book Sent.......2007-01-12
The company sent me the wrong book. I ordered "Lord I want to be Whole" and they sent me Lord, Heal My Hurts".
Such a Blessing.......2006-07-26
This book has been more than a blessing to me - spiritually & emotionally. It has helped me to grow and identify with issues within my spiritual walk in a meaningful way. I am a different person and I know the Lord led me to this book for a reason. I cant wait to read another book of hers. Its been awesome and a true testimony !!
I suggest EVERYONE read this book and take steps to becoming WHOLE !!
Our God is good.......2006-06-02
This is the most life changing book I have ever read; with the exception of the bible. I found this book I believe in 2002 and continue to read it every week. More and more deliverance. I am teaching from it this summer. Gotta own it!!
