Prayer Is Invading the Impossible
Digital Verbum Edition
Overview
Prayer is not the mystical experience of a few special people, but an aggressive act in the face of impossibility—an act that may be performed by anyone who accepts the challenge of learning to pray. This is a practical, how-to book that will stir up and encourage you to pray! Pastor Hayford is convinced that prayer can change anything. “The impossible doesn’t exist,” he writes. “His is the power; ours is the prayer. Without Him, we cannot. Without us, He will not.” Hayford will show you how to face what might seem to be impossibilities, how to be honest with God and yourself, wage effective spiritual warfare, and find victory for your life. Using real-life vignettes, Hayford offers great insights into the power of prayer with chapters such as Reprogramming the Freed, The Syndrome of Silence, and The Praying That Sets Boundaries.
