3.0 out of 5 stars Not What I Thought
What I was looking for is a collection of prayers. This book does have various prayers and their focus is on guiding a seeker to a deeper prayer life from a committed conservative Christian guide.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Best Prayer Guide I've Read This Year!!!, October 10, 2003

Maria A. Cook (Trenton, New Jersey) - See all my reviews
I would definetly recommend this book to any woman who is seeking a deeper more meaningful realtionship with God. This is an excellent book for encouragement and inspiration. Many of us are in a "Shallow Walk" with God, however this book along with the willingness to open up your heart to God's Holy Spirit will definetl change you for the better. I was skeptial at first about reading this book. I thought it was just another one of those "This is my opinion Religious Finatic Books" But to the contray it was the total opposite. Stormie hit the nail right on the head. She reminds us that all that we need, want, and desire in our lives as women walking with God, can only be obtained through God! She also gives us helpful and very useful prayer guides and prayers as well to help assist us with the opening up of our Hearts to obtain God's Blessings. It grabed my attention from the moment I opened it up and I can definetly say that it has helped me with my walk with the Lord. Reading her book is like having my own personal prayer partner by my side. I hope she continues to do such Great Works for The Lord and for all of us who are atempting to be more like him. Now here's the really good thing. I'm not an Avid reader but my church has a book club and this book was the book of the month. On that day I was torn between making a free will offering or purchasing Stormie's Book. Needless to say I truly believe I made the best decision for me at that time. I just could not put down! I took it to work, I read it on my break, and I could not wait to share it with my Mother & Sisters. This book was truly a Blessing!

5.0 out of 5 stars Extremely Useful and Will Change Your Life If Applied, September 10, 2003
By 
"bridol" (WEst Hollywood, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This book is excellent and will open your mind and show you what the bible has to say about the struggles facing women today. For example, this book addresses topics such as releasing negative emotions, God's desire to prosper us, healing, friendship, etc. etc. In her chapter about friends, she identifies certain signs of unhealthy friends. In her chapter about wisdom, she lists the benefits of seeking and obtaining wisdom as stated in the bible and the actions of a wise woman. She talks about controlling your words, praying for protection of your friends, how serving God will actually lead to living our your destiny and many other topics relevant for today.

This book is written in a way to encourage actual application of Stormie's insights. It is divided in short, readable chapters, with a prayer and relevant verses at the end of each chapter. This book can be read in any order as each chapter contains a stand-alone topic. While this book is presented in a very reader friendly format, the reader should not fly through this book. Rather, this book is extremely useful for daily devotions and life application. Each segment is useful for meditation and the verses set out at the end are empowering when memorized or frequently reviewed. I have used this book as a daily devotional and have found that consistent application of the teachings set forth in this book will change your life.

5.0 out of 5 stars Prayer works if you try it., July 28, 2003
By 
Selena (Barwick, Georgia USA) - See all my reviews
This book has changed my life. It has helped me draw close to God and feel connected to him. I have read this book 2 times. I think it is a book all women should read. As women our lives are so busy with kids, house, husband, work and so many other things that we need prayer. I have enjoyed this book so much and I plan to give it to a couple of my girlfriends for Christmas gifts. I believe in the power of prayer. This book is a good way to get us started on praying for ourselves.

5.0 out of 5 stars Highly recommend!!, March 30, 2003
I'm not very good at words, but this book is so awesome that I just have to try and write something that will encourage you to read this book. I can't say enough good things about this book! Stormie O'Martian has written another powerful prayer book in her line of "The Power of a Praying" books! This one is geared for woman to learn how to pray for oneself. Even though she addresses serious issues, Stormie writes in a very easy to read and understandable, down-to-earth format by using her personal experiences. I especially liked the prayers and scriptures that were included at the end of each chapter. They really provide a power-packed, scriptural prayer!!

Thank you Stormie for following God's will and guidance in providing us readers with such wonderful books!!! We love you!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Powerful and hard to put down..., September 18, 2002
By 
FPM (Chicago, IL United States) - See all my reviews
I just got the book today and I have to say it is a word in due season. The caption on the back cover "prayer is powerful...but do you know how to pray for yourself?" says it all. As women we are so busy caring for others, we neglect to go to God for the things we need ourselves and for help to be the women He would have us to be. The first few chapters have been a blessing. Ladies: read it and be reminded of the magnitude of the Lord, then share it.

5.0 out of 5 stars If I could give it 6 stars I would, July 17, 2003
This book turned my life completely around and faced me in the right direction. It gives me chills just thinking about the ways God has worked in my life through this book. Don't let the title fool you, the power of prayer is for everyone, I think even men could find so much insight in this book. Stormie really understands what she's talking about but writes in a way that is easy to follow. This would make the perfect gift for someone whom you really want to tell you love them.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Must Read for Any Woman!, June 26, 2006
This book is amazing and Heaven sent! I went to the bookstore searching for something and I was not sure what. I was looking for guidance. I came across it and skimmed through to realize it was what I wanted and needed. I have had so many questions and have longed for a deeper spiritual life with only confusion on how to achieve that. This book has opened my eyes and my heart and changed my life. It is easy to read and easy to understand. Stormie writes in such a way that you feel as if she wrote the book for you.

I highly recommend it! I will be buying it for all the women in my life when I think it will speak to them most because I want to share with them the same experience that I have enjoyed.
