Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Review

The trials and pressures of modern life can make the prospect of a fulfilled, meaningful marriage seem impossible. In The Power of a Praying Wife, popular Christian author and speaker Stormie Omartian pinpoints common marital struggles and reveals the miraculous way that disciplined prayer can alleviate heartache and sustain unity. According to Omartian, a marriage's success depends upon "laying down all claim to power in and of yourself, and relying on God's power to transform you, your husband, your circumstances, and your marriage." Omartian attributes the success of her own 25-year marriage to dedicated prayer for every area--however specific--of her husband's life; from his finances and his work to his integrity and his temptations. Each chapter offers insight into areas that are especially important to men, followed by "power tools" (inspiring, topical Scripture) to guide one's prayer life and transform a woman's mind with regard to her husband. This practical read will encourage women to trust God to change their spouse, and undoubtedly refocus one's perspective on God's power rather than one's own personal predicament. --Jill Heatherly --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.

This review is from: The Power of a Praying? Wife Book of Prayers (Power of a Praying Book of Prayers) (Kindle Edition)

It was a last-ditch, half-hearted effort that lead me to read this book a few years ago. I was feeling hopeless and helpless in my crumbling marriage. The idea of praying for my husband (whom i didn't think deserved to be prayed for) was a great challenge at the time. But, this book was a saving grace for me and for my marriage. I encourage every woman who loves her man to read this book and give prayer a chance. I have purchased it for three of my friends since then.

I recommend this book to every woman who believes in the power of prayer and especially to those who do not. If your marriage is going through a rough season purchase this book. Do not just approach it as a regular book, but as an assignment that God has given us for the victory in our marriage. Stormie clearly wrote this book inspired by the Holy Spirit..a troubled marriage get the book, your marriage is great still get the book to keep the marriage great..The Lord had me start an international women's ministry because of the results in my marriage from this book. The ministry is called Powerful Praying Women. This is a book I recommend to every married woman..in two words it is, "LIFE CHANGING" ...in my closing of you reading the book i say work this assignment and then, "stand back and see the glory of the Lord."

Stormie Omartian writes prayers that seem like she is living my life. They are exactly what my husband needs me to pray to help him is his daily walk with God, which in turn, makes my life much better. I would highly recommend this book and actually any of Stormie's books.
