5.0 out of 5 stars Powerful, Practical and Biblical, January 27, 2010

This review is from: Prayers Of An Excellent Wife: Intercession For Him (Paperback)

I highly recommend both this book and also for men: Water Of The Word: Intercession For Her

The book opens with a strong foundation of what an excellent wife means biblically and in church history. This reassurance along with an appeal to not treat this merely as a book, but for married women to encourage their husbands by praying with them is an important reminder. I also appreciate the short quotes, by powerful authors, placed throughout the book reassuring and encouraging the reader to commune with God and not make the action of prayer an idol.

As a young unmarried man, I have used Case's counterpart book for about 7 months to bolster my prayer life, specifically for God's work in my life and the sanctification of my future wife. The prayers themselves not only are beneficial for their substance in directing the heart to intercede to our Father on behalf of our spouse, but also provide practical examples of how to turn the Bible itself into prayers. Case notes which passages the prayers are based off of, which help bring to mind the full weight of the context of the passages used.

For the married woman, this book is a must. For the single woman, waiting on God for her future husband, this book gives hope that God is sovereign and to trust him with every aspect of life through prayer. For the unmarried and married man I recommend Water of the Word, not as a book to put on your shelf, but as an impetus to intercede fervently, stir up a passion for God and glorify God as you show your helplessness to change people apart from His power.

5.0 out of 5 stars Changing Our Lives!, September 24, 2010

M. Gililland - See all my reviews

This review is from: Prayers Of An Excellent Wife: Intercession For Him (Paperback)

I was delighted to receive this book and begin working through it. It has been awesome to see God at work in the life of my husband as I pray these Scriptural prayers over him and to see God working in my own life to lift my husband up above myself and pray for God's best for him. God has spoken to this author and I will be forever grateful for His prompting and for the author being obedient to the One who created prayer. Humbly pray through this book and see how great our God is.

5.0 out of 5 stars Just what I needed., August 31, 2010

Andrea Foster (ELK RIVER, MN, US) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Prayers Of An Excellent Wife: Intercession For Him (Paperback)

This book is excellent. It would make a great gift for a bride. There is no better way to start a marriage than with prayer. The prayers in this book are based in Scripture. I recommend after reading and praying the prayers in the book, that you open your Bible and read the Scripture references. Great book, a must read/pray.
