Pray Daily: Connecting with God While Changing the World

INTRODUCTION

Prayer causes our spirit to be energized, blesses our circumstances and results in real changes in the world as more people experience Jesus’ salvation and deliverance from sin and injustice.

My premise is that anyone can understand the main story line and structure of the book of Revelation in less than one hour and can learn to say it to… Read the rest of the story
