I enjoyed The Power of a Praying Wife and The Power of a Praying Woman. If you liked either of those, you will like Keys to Powerful Prayer. Keys to Powerful Prayer was covered more topics of prayer and would be great for anyone.

Stormie does a great job of directing your prayer life. This is a great resource book to keep in your car when you have just a few minutes to read waiting for your kids or at an appointment. This was a very motivational and inspiring book.

I received this galley from NetGalley.

I received an ARC from Harvest House Publishers, via NetGalley this review is my personal opinion.


All do this book is a booklet, it has condensed and powerful information about prayer. Stormie Omartian take 8 keys prayers and give us different recommendations on how we can use them in our daily life, it also has great Bible verse. With clear and understandable information. This book is a great choice for everyone that wants to deeper her/his relationship with God through prayer.

Firstly I love this title “Keys to Powerful Prayer.
This is a basic guide, a handbook introducing the Christian to the place they need to be before the Lord in prayer. It doesn’t so much reduce prayer to a mechanical function so much as an extension of what being a Christian means. Heavily backed up by scripture this is a book that will change everyone’s time in prayer from mere words to a conversation based upon you as a person and God through his word/promises.
So the author focuses on different elements on prayer; all valid and perhaps all needed in one’s approach to deepen your prayer life. However there is no thought that you need to remember each; begin where you are most comfortable. Remember it is a two way meeting, so ask God to reveal areas to focus on. I believe this is a comprehensive list and should cover most intercessions and time in prayer.
There are examples in each section on what areas we may bring before the Lord. A simple set of prayers to use and expound upon; fill in the gaps to make it a personal petition. Then as mentioned there are scriptures that share and reinforce the need and benefits of prayer with the promises it brings.
If you work through this book you will be blessed and your prayer times will be more fulfilled since it is like any good manual. It covers the specifics and reinforces these like learning any new skill. It brings the reason to the fore, the method and the benefits. While giving direct encouragement and practical feedback.
I was impressed by the elements of worship, confession and requests both for others, our relationships and personal needs.
This book has the power to enlarge one’s faith and encourage us to see God’s hand on our lives. It is simple in it’s approach and message. There is nothing too complicated or above any of our experiences. God wants us to have a relationship with him in prayer, to ask Give us this day our daily bread and see his influence on our lives, Thy will be done.

May those who read this book, be equally blessed.

Do you want to focus your prayer?
After starting her book "Keys to Powerful Prayer" (published by Harvest House Publishers) with an introduction titled "Answers to your Questions before you even ask" best-selling author Stormie Omartian presents eight areas of Prayer Focus with titles such as "Worship and Praise God for Who He Is", "Submit Your Body, Heart, and Mind to God", or "Tell God the Desires of your Heart". Omartian arranged the book in such a way that every paragraph in the eight areas is a complete thought. Readers can choose a paragraph or section anywhere and let that inspire their prayers. At the end of each prayer focus she has provided a sample prayer (Prayer Power). This prayer can be a beginning point for readers to jumpstart their own prayers or it can be a prayer by itself. Furthermore, there are Scriptures (Word Power) at the end of each focus "that can be read over, proclaimed, spoken aloud, memorized, pondered, meditated on, or simply kept" in the heart of the readers if they have the time or the motivation. The goal of these Scriptures is to be encouraging, uplifting, and edifying.
Although I have heard about Stormie Omartian previously, I think this is the first book which I read by her. I have appreciated her approach to prayer and highly recommend the book since it is a great tool for everybody who wants to learn more about prayer or get more serious in their prayer life. Furthermore, this book also makes a good present for others.
The complimentary copy of this book was provided by the publisher through NetGalley free of charge. I was under no obligation to offer a positive review. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

This was a short but powerful guide to effective daily prayer life. Even though I know about praying for anything and everyone, the way the author presented the areas of prayer focus, together with the detailed examples, example prayer and scripture references, this is a guide I will definitely review regularly and also recommend to new Christians or Christians who feel they stagnated in their prayer life.

Actually, I think this guide is something every Christian could have.

Thank you netgalley for an opportunity to read this ARC.

This book is a great pocket book that helps lead you in the direction of a better prayer life. My favorite part was that they gave bible verses to each part that you were studying. It does a really good job explaining each topic it discusses in this book in a short amount of time.

A small powerful book on how to pray more intently. To pray for help each day, but more specifically. To ease your burdens, but what are those burdens? Let God know the thoughts and feelings of your heart. Don't expect Him to answer in your timing, the timing is the Lord's.

I love every book I have ever read from this author. The chapters and prayers are not long but very powerful. Thank you for your guidance through troubling times by writing such awesome books.

A good introduction to prayer for those having trouble talking to God. It covers 8 areas of Prayer focus with hints, tips and bible verses to back them up.
The best introduction for all that I have found. Recommended.
I was given this book by Netgalley and the publisher. This is my voluntary and impartial review.

Stormie Omartian is a prayer warrior and has totally changed my prayer life. I have learned so much through her books, and this new title was no exception! Let's be honest, prayer can be intimidating when you don't know what to do and how to do it. She breaks it down and makes it easy to focus on one thing at a time so that you don't feel overwhelmed. I can't wait to purchase this book and give to my mom and sisters!

A well written guide to indepth and intense prayer.Its short and easy to read yet has very powerful points to improve your prayer life.

An excellent little book on prayer! This book is one to be savored and read a little bit at a time. It is well written, with an emphasis on daily concerns and daily prayer. It will have wide appeal, and even mature Christians can gain insights from it.

This is a very short book, but it nonetheless holds many truths and valuable guidance. Highly recommended.
