When we hear that a friend is struggling, it can be easy to say, 'I'm praying for you', but harder to know what to actually pray.
Through forty carefully-chosen Scripture passages, Nancy Guthrie opens up the wealth of scripture to teach us how to pray for those who are hurting. She shows us how the Bible provides us with a vocabulary for prayer that enables us to ask God to achieve what he intends in and through suffering. Nancy teaches us to see how God's purposes are revealed even in our darkest days and encourages us to pray for his will to be done in difficult situations.
Each chapter includes a passage, a short explanation, and a prayer for your friend. Using the QR code at the end of each prayer, you’ll be able to load and send a personal text message to the person you’re praying for so that he or she will know not only that you are praying, but exactly what you are praying.
I bought this book as I was keen to pray biblically informed prayers for several of my friends who were suffering in various ways. It has helped me to commit to praying daily for them, and has enabled me to encourage them and point them to Jesus (I send a text of the content of the prayer and scripture reference each day).
Not only has this book helped me to pray in a wiser way, it has also gently and pastorally helped me to grow in my theology of suffering in a way that equips me to love and serve ...others better.
I thoroughly recommend it.
