Inspired

Thank You Jim Cymbala for writing a book that is so powerful that it has inspired me to pray for the gift of salvation for lost loved ones and for what seem like hopeless causes. Your book is filled with powerful scripture references and true stories of the amazing power of God to change lives when a person cries out to God. Reading your book as caused God's word on Prayer to become more alive and active in me. Reading this book has changed me and developed a deeper desire to remain in prayer. I recommend this book to every person who has questions in their heart regarding Gods power and prayer.

Praise the Lord God for His Work through Jim Cymbala!!

In a believer's life, one of THE most important things - in fact, we can never emphasize its importance too much - is a "prayer". Unfortunately, it is often misunderstood/misused or negelected by a number of modern day Christians. Cymbala's books on prayers are based on real testimonies and solid biblical doctrines, not too heavily influenced by any particular school of theology or denominational teachings. I find this book one of the "purest" and best teachings on prayers written by a modern day preacher (since C.H. Spurgeon). I personally was greatly helped and encouraged by this book (and other books by Cymbala)when I was going through a very tough time, while pleading with the Lord. The Lord has blessed me greatly with Jim Cymbala's books - i.e. the powerful testimonies of the ordinary people at Brooklyn Tabernacle in the presence of their Mighty God - and I give all thanks and praises to Jesus Christ my King! I pray you will read this book and be "inspired" and encouraged (by the Holy Spirit) as much as I have been. In my humble opinion, this is not just an excerpt or a repetition of his previous books. I'd rather call it a great "conclusion" of Cymbala's "Fresh..." series. This book is definitely a blessing to me - praise Jesus our Mighty King and Lord for answering my feeble pathetic prayers - all by His GRACE!

Another Excellent Title by Cymbala

The focus of this book is to encourage the reader to experience a breakthrough in his or her prayer life. Among the points covered include: 1. Although God wants to bless us abundantly, we must obey Him through faith. 2. God will give us the victory when we step out in obedience to Him. 3. God has an answer for every challenge we face. 4. The fruit in our lives are the proof that we have Jesus in our hearts. 5. Instead of people's opinions and our feelings, we need to develop a strong faith in God's Word. 6. God often works His plan through weak people compelled by the need for prayer. 7. God can accomplish much through one humble person who listens with a sensitive heart. 8. Jesus had perfect peace and was always unhurried. 9. Gloomy and despondent Christians should be sued for false advertising. 10. 4 key elements of Solomon's petition in 1 Kings 3. Read and be encouraged. Highly recommended!

An eye opener! Wow!

To start out, this was my first work by Jim Cymbala. Now I want EVERYTHING he wrote! I really didn't know what to think when I first received this book to read for my own application. While the title may look simplistic, look beyond that. This dives straight into the heart of prayer and faith! Stories from people such as Nicky Cruz, a man who was raised as a devout Hindu and came to know Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior. It also had the story of Lynette Mohammed who relied on the joy of the Lord through 9/11. Jim had a chapter on why we shouldn't fear. Awesome. The biblical examples in this book are just witnesses that can reach anyone! Examples of King David, Moses, Solomon, the apostle Paul and even one of my favorite verses out of the book of Habakkuk. This book taught me a lot about myself, and it gave new meaning to praying. It even taught me a little bit about what I need, patience! To wait on God sometimes. To rely on God's joy to be our strength, not ours! I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to improve their walk with God, and so much more! This book is called Breakthrough Prayer. Read it and find out why.

Cymbala's Primer on Prayer

Here is the "secret" to Pastor Cymbala's success At Brooklyn Tabernacle--often intense, sacrificial intercessory prayer. The chapter on spiritual warfare re: drug addiction and sexual abuse is a breath of fresh air in contrast to self-centered "christian" psychology that is dominant in the church today. This book presents some troubling questions as Cymbala encourages all Christians to examine themselves against the backdrop of an ever-darkening world. Must reading for pastors with a real shepherd's heart.
