Fervent by Priscilla Shirer

Fervent: A Woman's Battle Plan to Serious, Specific, and Strategic Prayer by [Shirer, Priscilla]

















Here’s the book summary:
You have an enemy . . . and he’s dead set on destroying all you hold dear and keeping you from experiencing abundant life in Christ. What’s more, his approach to disrupting your life and discrediting your faith isn’t general or generic, not a one-size-fits-all. It’s specific. Personalized. Targeted.


So this book is your chance to strike back. With prayer. With a weapon that really works. Each chapter will guide you in crafting prayer strategies that hit the enemy where it hurts, letting him know you’re on to him and that you won’t back down. Because with every new strategy you build, you’re turning the fiercest battles of life into precise strikes against him and his handiwork, each one infused with the power of God’s Spirit.

New York Times bestselling author Priscilla Shirer, widely known for her international speaking, teaching, and writing ministries, brings her new role from the 2015 film War Room into the real lives of today’s women, addressing the topics that affect them most: renewing their passion, refocusing their identity, negotiating family strife, dealing with relentless regrets, navigating impossible schedules, succeeding against temptation, weathering their worst fears, uprooting bitterness, and more. Each chapter exposes the enemy’s cruel, crafty intentions in all kinds of these areas, then equips and encourages you to write out your own personalized prayer strategies on tear-out sheets you can post and pray over yourself and your loved ones on a regular basis.

Fervent is a hands-on, knees-down, don’t-give-up action guide to practical, purposeful praying.


And now, my review of this book:
This book is a great read and follow up to the movie, “War Room”.  If you haven’t seen it, I highly recommend that you do it this weekend!  The idea of Spiritual Armor is talked about in Ephesians 6 and it’s something we are to put on each and every day of our lives because Ephesians 6:12  states that our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.  In this book Priscilla walks us through each area of our lives where we can stand guard in prayer with our armor on and be ready to battle the attacks coming at us.  Whether you are young or old, single or married, a parent or not, this book is a great growing guide in this needed area in a believer’s life.  Check it out today along with other great reads by this author.

I received a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.
