Summary: Move Heaven and Earth with Your Prayers!
Review: If God is all-powerful, why does He need us to pray? If we pray and nothing happens, does this mean that God isn't listening?

Many people feel their prayers don't count, but Dutch Sheets, senior pastor at Springs Harvest Fellowship in Colorado Springs, CO, will show you just how vital your prayers are.

Sheets explains the nuts and bolts of prayer with wisdom, gentleness and humor. Gospel Light hopes that his biblical insight and depth of revelation will inspire you and give you the courage to pray for the "impossible" and help you find the persistence to see your prayers to completion.

Discover your role as a prayer warrior-it can mean the difference between heave and hell for you and someone you know!

Praise for Dutch Sheets:

"Intercessory Prayer is illuminating and motivating. Dutch Sheets sheds fascinating light on this sometimes mysterious subject. Readers will want to pray more, and they will see more results." -Bill Bright, Founder and President, Campus Crusade for Christ International.

"My heart flooded with excitement as I read Intercessory Prayer. What a blessing it is to have this instructive, God-inspired manual revealing the ways God works through His people. The Body of Christ will be richer in knowledge and depth of intercession, equipped to hit the bull's-eye." -Bobbye Byerly, U.S. National President, Aglow International.

"If your are looking for a textbook on prayer, this is the best! Dutch Sheet's fresh insights will inspire your faith, deepen your understanding, and equip you to fulfill your destiny as one of God's praying people. -Dick Eastman, International President, Every Home for Christ.

DUTCH SHEETS received a theology degree from Christ for the Nations Institute in Dallas, Texas. Dutch has traveled extensively, teaching throughout the United States, Canada, Central America, Africa and much of Europe. He and his wife, Ceci, live with their two daughters in Colorado Springs, CO.

Summary: This book will show you how to pray down God's power.
Review: Intercessory Prayer is a solid bible-based look at empowered prayer. The author, Dutch Sheets, shows the reader that prayer is essential for God, the Holy Spirit to be released to work in our world. I believe that the author's balance between God's word and personal experience is what makes this book come alive. I have personally been changed and challenged to live a prayer empowered life depending on God to work in a mighty way in my life and in those around me that I am interceding for. Both conservative and charismatic believers will rise up to the challenge!

Summary: Definitive once and for all textbook on prayer.
Review: The gist is that God needs someone to 'release' His power on earth for Him to do things. This is because God conferred authority over earth to man at the time of creation, authority that was eventually turned over to Satan. Jesus came to bridge the gap and re-take that authority, and through His death He empowered us to do the same.

Sheets goes through all of the different kinds of ways we can pray (calls them 'annointings') and backs them up with scripture and examples from his ministry experiences. Some of his examples seem a little too Hollywood-esque however, and his interpretations of scripture sometimes seem 'forced', out of context and should be read with care.

Sheets answers all of the tough prayer questions, such as why do we need to pray more than once (bowls that fill up with our prayers that 'release' God's power when full), and why we need to pray at all if He is the Almighty God (see the gist section at the top). He addresses these and other issues in a very informal tone with a touch of humor that is very lively. Nowhere does the book ever get too dry or stale.

Overall, this book opens your eyes to the powers and opportunities of prayer. If you don't have faith that He can move mountains, don't bother. But if you want to be an ambassador of Jesus and continue His ministry of prayer to open hearts to the good news, break strongholds and whatever else it might be, it's a good training book. Like the back cover says, it gets you excited to pray with a different attitude, and you do see more clearly how your prayers affect life around you.
