Before the Throne (an 8-Week Bible Study): Finding Strength Through Prayer in Difficult Times

By Crickett Keeth

Where do you go when life overwhelms you? Before the Throne.

God's people know they can turn to Him when times get tough. Instead of trying to fix things on our own, we can enter God's throne room in prayer. The access granted to us by Jesus our High Priest is our comfort when the world is turned upside down.

In Before the Throne, Crickett Keeth, author of On Bended Knee, offers a follow-up study of eight prayer warriors from Scripture who turned to God when times became difficult. You'll learn to pray with:

Moses in times of disappointmentThe Psalmists in times of needJonah in times of disobedienceHezekiah in times of battleHabakkuk in times of questioningJesus in a time of intercessionPaul in times of hardshipRevelation saints in times of worship

Crickett's studies are known for taking you deep--then even deeper --into God's Word. As you study these prayers, you'll be strengthened as you see how these godly Bible characters poured out their hearts to God and how He responded to them. You'll learn how to pray with the same power when you feel weak, helpless, stressed, or afraid. As you turn your focus toward God's character through prayer, He will supply the strength you need to face whatever is before you. Because that's the privilege you have when you come Before the Throne.

"Let us then approach God's throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need." Hebrews 4:16

Power in Their Prayers!

In her Bible study Before the Throne: Finding Strength through Prayer in Difficult Times, Cricket Keeth guides readers to Look Up, Look Deeper, and Look Reflectively. I loved discovering the context, purposes, and emotions of the prayers of Moses, the Psalmists, Jonah, Hezekiah, Habakkuk, Jesus, Paul, and the Revelation Saints. I have never examined their prayers this closely before and I have been well taught and inspired to model my own prayers after these Heaven reaching petitions. There is a new power in my prayers! I received a complimentary copy of this book for the purpose of reviewing it. I was not compensated.

Confidence in Prayer

I received a copy of Before the Throne from Moody Publishers to review. I have not received any payment for this review. Before I knew I would be asked to review the book, I pre-ordered it. I love this Crickett Keeth’s way of showing me things in Scripture that I have read before but never “thought about.” Each chapter studies prayers of someone from the Bible who was living in difficult times. You not only learn about coping in difficult times but how to pray scripturally. I recommend not only this book, but all her books. Your spiritual life will be richer for these studies.
