Power of Simple Prayer: Mass Market by Joyce Meyer

If someone asked me, "Joyce, if you could make only one comment about prayer, what would it be?" I would have to respond by talking about its simplicity. I have been praying for many, many years and I can say a great deal about prayer, but if I could only emphasize one thing, I would tell people that it is so much easier than we think.

I tell you the truth when I say that God desires our prayer lives to be natural and enjoyable. He wants our prayers to be honest and heartfelt and He wants our communication with Him unencumbered by rules, regulations, legalism, and obligation. He intends for prayer to be an integral part of our everyday lives- the easiest thing we do each day.

I believe you are reading this book because you really want to know your prayers make a difference, you want to see God's power at work in your life and the lives of those around you, you want to enjoy your communication with God and grow in your relationship with Him. I assure you, that's exctly what He wants, too, and He is eager to help you. Be blessed as you embark on this journey toward more intimate, more exciting, more effective prayer!
