Prayer English

Think back to when you were a kid and someone you loved gave you a little wink across the dining room table, like Mom or Dad or Grandma. You didn't say, “What do you mean by that?” You knew. It meant: “Hey kid, I'm proud of you.” That's what a Godwink is: a message of reassurance from above, directly to you, out of seven billion people on Earth, saying “Hey kid...I have you on my mind! I love you. You’re never alone.” A Godwink can be an unexpected connection to someone you love, a mysterious pathway to a life-changing opportunity, or unanticipated income out of the blue.

The final battle is here. The final showdown between man and monster. Years ago, the aliens hit us hard. Tentacled aliens. Bloodthirsty aliens. They burned our cities. Devoured our children. Conquered our world. It ends now. We lost in space. We lost on land. We lost our world. But a few rebels still fight. A few brave souls still stand tall. Einav Ben-Ari. Marco Emery. Addy Linden. Names that will echo through the generations. Heroes of Earth. Rebels. They lead a last, desperate assault. This is our final stand. We must liberate our world. Or Earth will be lost forever.

Christians have just as many problems as anyone else. Financial concerns, marital discord, illness, loneliness, church splits: you name it, Christians have them. That's discouraging, and sometimes we compound these problems by imagining that problems are God's punishment for our past misdeeds. This is especially true if we fail to see God at work in our lives, if we aren't enjoying a rewarding prayer life, or if our relationship with the Lord seems to be at a distance. In Problems, God's Presence, and Prayer, Michael Wells shows how you can experience the joy of a closer walk with God.

The great American revivalist Charles Finney, without a doubt, left an enduring impression on Earth. To this day thousands of lives are impacted and transformed by his ministry. He is largely known for the incredible miracles that God worked through him during his ministry years, and many have sought to walk in the same level of power he did. However, Finney was very clear that the only way to walk in any significant level of anointing was through the doorway of prayer. Not dead, formulaic, religious prayers, but deep, intimate time with God; especially the Holy Spirit.
