Welcome

by Stormie on 01/20/2009 03:01

In this new year, it feels more than ever like we need to pray fervently about everything. We believers must pray for our health, the welfare of our families, our marriages, our work, our finances, our economy, the leaders of our country, the people we know who are suffering, the poor, the needy, those who are out of work, those who are out of money, those who have suffered loss of any kind, and those who are hurting. I have dedicated my life to helping people learn how to pray in power about these things so that they will see answers to their prayers. Every book I write talks about prayer in some way. I pray that these books will be of benefit to you and affect your prayer habits in a life-changing and positive way.

 

On this new website, I hope to be more consistent in writing a periodic blog. I was really bad about that on my last site because of how complicated it was for me to post it. It took time I just did not have. But now with a more user-friendly set-up, I will try to keep you better informed of things that are happening, personal concerns for which I need your prayers, and things I know of that especially need the prayers of us all.

 

This website will always have a new scripture to read and a new prayer to pray everyday. Another feature that will be helpful for you is the Prayer Community. I hope you will click on it -- located on the navigation bar at the top of the Home Page -- and share your own prayer requests so that I and others can pray for you. I also hope you will be inspired to pray for the other people who have posted there as well. Our prayers for one another are so important, especially in these times.

 

With love and blessings,
Stormie Omartian

Thank you for those prayer books. I'm addicted and loving it. It's wonderful to pray without ceasing. I have cpies of prayers on my treadmill, in my pocketbook which I read on the train commuting to NY everyday, on my desk at work, by my bedside....everywhere. Thank you!!!

I share your daily prayer with all the young ladies in my life and i noticed today's is the same as yesterday. Will there be a new one daily ? This has been a tremendous blessing to us all! I hope its new daily and not weekly. You have been a blessing to all of us and thank you! Kathleen Anch, AK

Hi - The prayers will be brand new every day but our site is so brand new that it isn't functioning completely yet. We appreciate your patience.

Stormie, I have been divorced for 4 years, in my mid fifties with a chronic pain/fatigue illness. After reading your book, Lord I want to be whole, I have realized so much. I repented 10 years(i was stuck in double mindedness from science classes in college) ago but am just now realizing some emotional healing. My ex still is stuck in secularism. I see clearly why our marriage didn't work. Should I pray for restoration? Thank you, cynthia

I have been praying for my children & husband for years now from your books. I am new to the Franklin, TN area. Where do you recommend going to church?

By Mandie

I was also new to an area and a great thing to do is talk to people you meet and admire and ask them about their church and try it out. Also pray for God to lead you to the right church and people for you and your needs.

May God rise up an army of prayer warriors (page 98)! We are blessed to have you visiting Arizona! ...Your Best is Yet to Come Woman of GOD...

YOU ARE PART OF A WONDERFUL STORY OF 2 MIRACLES! I am a middle school teacher from West Tennessee. I live close to Jackson. I read your book "The Power of the Praying Parent" every day during our school wide reading time. I took my maternity leave in March 2008. I survived a rare emergency called an amniotic embolism during the birth of our second child. Usually, no one (mom or baby) survives through this emergency. I am still recovering and my baby girl is healthy. Thank God! We had an outpouring of prayer from Christians everywhere. We felt the power of each prayer and God listened to every word. He even heard the prayers that I prayed from your book before my baby was even born. I want to thank you for writing such a meaningful book with life saving prayers. You are part of our wonderful story of miracles. I am glad that I was able to share this news with you! I signed up for your book club which includes my contact information. I would like to thank you in person and share more of our wonderful story about our awesome GOD and the power of prayer.

Hi Stormie! i have recently picked up your prayer book "The Power of a Praying Wife." I too am addicted to it!. Thank you so much for this and all of your books. God has blessed you. My husband was in the hospital after a fall. he broke his left ankle in 3 places. When i went to pick up a few things at the store, I was drawn to the books on a rack in the isle. usually i just pass right on by, but i came on this book of prayers put it in my buggy without thinking. I now keep in in my purse. read it throughout the day at work, and during down time at home. Since I have been praying for him, through your book, the swelling in his foot has gone. Iam praying that God will give us a good report when we see the surgeon again in 2 weeks. I would like to know if you have a book for co workers?? This would really be helpful to all of us that have unsaved, boistrous co workers. Thanks again

By Angela

I can't wait to start exploring the site. You have so much wisdom and insight. God lead me to your books because He knew it would take someone special to minister through and I am thankful it was you, a woman who knows what women go through.

By T.

Hi Stormie! I know it may be hard for you to respond, but I thought I'd take a chance. My husband and I have been separated for about 3 years. We have 2 children. We just recently moved back into the house with him, but he states that he is going to find somewhere else to live. I know that he is currently seeing someone. I pray daily for restoration and reconciliation and thank God in advance for it. I've read your book Power of a Praying Wife and I'm in the process of reading Just Enough Light for the Step I'm On. Should I continue to pray for restoration and reconciliation, along with praying for him and his heart to soften? I love him so much and want our marriage back.

By jay from Australia

Dear Stormy, I read your testimony just weeks ago and what can I say? I related to it in many ways. Thank you for sharing it. I am visiting in California with my 14 year old son, My husband and and I have been in ministry for 20 years in Australia. I would absolutley love to meet you. Is that at all possible? I am staying a few days in No Holllywood at a friends house. The only way I can think of that you could reach me would be via a text message SMS on my mobile phone. I think you would have to dial 01161438918595 if you sent me a phone no then I could phone from where I am staying. the owner of the house I am staying in has gone away for the week end and I am Letting the phone go to the answering service. or perhaps you could send an email to her address, but please mention my name in the title, so I know to open it her email is marlenehajdu@yahoo.com thank yu very much I hope to here from you Jay Lassey West Australia

By Priscilla

Stormie, you are an inspiration by God. I pray my son will read your story and change his life. He is in the military and it seems that sooo many military people need God in a big way. The help really doesn't seem to be there (or maybe I am missing something.) I need my job, but if God is calling me, I will quit and follow him just to help the hurting GI's and their families. Don't know how, but I will put that in His loving hands. Pray for me. Thank you Stormie, for all the years of God inspired help you have give me and my family for many years. We truly love you. God Bless you in all you do... Priscilla

By Suzanne

For someone who struggles with prayer, you are a God-send. Thank you so much. I would LOVE to put your prayers in a format that I could load on my iPhone and have with me wherever I go. Totally willing to pay for that.

Stormie, non speak english, I the Brazil, adored the books, you isnpiration the God.The history is aprendizado para todo world. Fica na peace the Jesus!! Margleice

By TLC

returning to prayer, a place I should have never left. I'm standing & believing the Lord to restore & reconcile my marriage of only 2 years & 8 mo. Husband left a month ago today b/c we had a physical conflict (not the first one). He never hit me, but the manhandling & roughing me up is still unnerving & hurtful. This is the roughest time of my life! Please hold us up in prayer. I've gone from wanting to file for an annulmnet /divorce to hanging in there.

By Nanette Wilson

I like what you are doing but I have one complaint about your calendar of Power of a Praying wife. On February 21 it says Staying attractive to your husband doesn't just happen. Even the most gorgeous women in the world do much to maintain their attractiveness. There must always be some effort put into maintaining your body,soul and spirit. Ask God to show you how. Well my God says in 1 Peter 3:1 Wives, in the same way be submissive to your husbands so that, if any of them do not believe the word, they may be won over without words by the behavior of their wives, 2when they see the purity and reverence of your lives. 3Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as braided hair and the wearing of gold jewelry and fine clothes. 4Instead, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God's sight. 5For this is the way the holy women of the past who put their hope in God used to make themselves beautiful. They were submissive to their own husbands, 6like Sarah, who obeyed Abraham and called him her master. You are her daughters if you do what is right and do not give way to fear.

By By JDE

Stormie, I love you books. You are so gifted and you have helped me so much. Would you consider writing a book for teenagers. The power of a praying teenage boy or girl. So many young people face problems that a praying wife or husband do in relationships and peer pressure and just every day life. You have helped me so much and I would love it if you would write a book I could give my son and my daughter that would help them to live a christian life with all the things they face in today's world being christian children. It is really tough. Thank you so much.

By Jan

I was one of the handful of single parents that stood yesterday at your call for single parents in Phoenix Az. Thank you for acknowledging us and offering prayer. This is atypically bold, however, I believe that my personal walk THRU this should be shared, in text, so that the Many might know the power of our Living God. Please advise and/or share in this publication with me. The battles of Single parenting have been huge and dark. I, however, have not fought this alone for the past 22 years. The Lord has been so faithful - that it was I need to share. Thank you for your Mighty words giving me strength, courage and Power.

By Sue in AZ

Stormie, I saw you in Phoenix, won a book you signed for me! thanks I wanted to tell you; I saw you in Tucson years ago and the transformation is amazing! I saw peace, healing, & love in you. You have such a gentle spirit. You also look fabulous darling; must be a God thing! :) thank you for what you do and God bless you and keep you, Sue

By Sara

Hello Stormie, I am uncertain if this is the correct place to contact you. Would you consider writing a book...The Power of the Praying Sibling. I have used your "Wife" and "Parent" book for years. Recently our boys were not getting along as well I would have liked and God told me to have them pray for each other for at least one minute out loud in the morning. The results have been amazing. I hope a foundation is being laid in which they will pray for one another daily throughout their days on earth. I would love to have the same prayer guidance for them as you have given me through your books. I hope you may consider the idea. I am certain you are busy beyond belief but I pray God will lay this possible project on your heart. Because of Him, Sara

By Norma

I am also thankful for u Stormie I love the books and I have still reading all the books you put out.

By Jam

Hi Stormie, Thank you so much for the praying wife book! I was so addicted to that book. I couldn't put it down. I tried reading at wk under my binders as not to get in trouble. I was at a state in my marriage where we weren't getting along and my husband was just plain cold and negative all the time. Since, I've read your book I've seen a change in him. The prayers in there are awesome. I knew I needed to pray for him BUT I didn't know where and how to start. It was just repititous until I found your prayers!! I realize now that it wasn't all him but alot me too. With my demanding behavior and always trying to be in charge of everything. I am now holding my tongue and praying. I've been with him half my life and I've never prayed this much for him. I want to read that book over and over again. I felt like you were telling my life story in there. My husband is a CUBS fan too and a sports fanatic so I could relate to everything in this book. Thank you stormie I forever will be thankful for this eye opener. I'm trying and praying and for everyone don't give up pray for your spouse every day! when you see the power of Christ work from your prayers, stop whatever you are doing and thank him. He truly works miracles. Don't give up he hears you. Stormie Lots of Love and thank you for being the woman you are.

By Estelle

Hi Stormie, Thank you or the lovely messages in the Daily Planner for Women 2009, I feel very encouraged. I wonder if you could advise me as to how to deal with my anger, I am emotional all the time and dont know what I want, Im unhappy in my marraige and dont know what to do, sometimes I feel smuthered. Pleas advise me. Yours in Christ Estelle

Hi Stormie, Can I use the Word and pray like a Christian Unitarian ?

By Deanna

Very excited to use your new website, may God truly bless you and all your work!

By Julia

Hi Stormie. The website is beautiful! Bought a trilogy binding of 3 of your books (wife, parent, woman). Used it to pray over a friends life with God's intervention happening :) Quick question - I am involved in a Christian drug recovery programme for folk who come out of rehab. Want to teach them to pray for themselves. Starting a prayer group this Friday night, every week to pray for the kids and the ministry. I found that your writing before the prayer 'discipled' me such alot. Your manner of writing made it easy to understand the why's for the what's etc. Feel these kids need this desperately. The references are for woman mostly. Is there anyway that I may type these 'discipling' notes over for the recovering folk with refernces to guys as well. It will help so much! Perhaps there is a book that both men and women can go through to pray over themselves? Use as morning devotions? Thank you for your kindness in sharing your life with us. What can I pray over a drug addict or recovering drug addict? What can I give the parents to pray for - (meaning how can I teach them to pray for their kids in this type of bondage?) Thak you God bless Julia

By Julia

I know some guys who would greatly benefit from a book dedicated to men only. Have you and your husband considered this? Would not be surprised if this is already happening. Can't give them the women ones. Slightly stuck as to which one I could give for them to work through. They desperately need something just for them. Hope I'm touching on something that is already done :)

By A Faithful Customer

Hi, Stormie! I commend and value your work. I often give your books to parents and children from various cultural backgrounds as gifts. Is it possible for the pictures in Prayers and Promises for My Little Boy and Prayers and Promises for My Little Girl reflect different cultural backgrounds in various portraits within the books in your next printing of the books?

By Robyn

Hi Stormie, I am so grateful for how the Lord has used you to be a blessing in our lives. I have been praying "The Power of a Praying Wife" for my husband and my marriage. It is amazing that as I pray for him, I find areas that I need to work on in my own life. I am newly married for the 4th time. I didn't really understand the covenant of marriage until this time. The past hurts from both our lives has made us vulnerable to the enemy's attacks. I love my husband and I want to please God in my marriage. I need to constantly build up my faith and pray ferverently for my marriage. I am looking for some christian counseling as well. Both my husband and I need deliverance. Any and all advice that you can share is much appreciated.

By Blessed by Stormie

I have read your books and I have been Blessed by them. Please, continue to write as the Lord leads you. There are those of us that are Mom's that Need You..

By Lisa

My marriage ended almost 2 years ago. I asked for the divorce, my husband didn't want it. Our marriage looked great on the outside, but we had no relationship. I felt so lonely. I tried to talk to him about it, he didn't understand, discussions always ended with me crying, wishing I hadn't said anything. He wasn't willing to go to counseling or even admit something was wrong except that I wasn't happy. I read Power of A Praying Wife, prayed for him and our marriage every day, 13 years. Nothing ever changed. I am doing well now, kids have done great.I see my ex a lot with raising our kids, I am always happy I don't have to live with him anymore, I dont' miss him, and the thought of reconciling is "absoluelt not"! But I do have guilt about ending my marriage. And I don't understand why things didn't change with prayers. Wouldn't God have wanted our marriage to be better? Didn't I pray hard enough? Is there something wrong with me that I could walk away so completely and not regret it?

By Sharleen

Hi Stormie,we have started an e-mail prayer group and I have been sharing with the ladies all that I have learned from "the power of a praying wife". I noticed your speaking engagements on the tool bar, is it possible that you will come to South Africa soon? I belong to Rhema Ministries in Randburg and every year our church has a Women's Conference with speakers from all over the world. I would love for all the ladies in my group to be able to hear you speak on this very topic that has brought strangers together to pray for each other. Blessed be, Sharleen

By Faith

Stormie - you are coming to Greenville, SC in two weeks to speak at the Women's Conference. I am going to attend the conference with my bible study even though my faith is in crisis right now. I am hoping you can help answer a question that I am struggling with. Once you are old enough to know that life does not get easier, that dreams don't come true, and often times it doesn't matter how much you pray - bad things happen anyway, how do have the heart to believe again? I can't read scripture or listen to worship music without crying because I know so many of those things are not true. I can quote scripture with the best of them but I there is a list of things that don't come true like he doesn't give us the "desires of our heart". What is ahead in life is often worse than what was behind. Despite most women's best efforts at making marriage work, it is usually a very sad experience. I used to cling to verses when times were tough because I kept thinking maybe they would come true someday . . .maybe the pain would stop someday . . .but after 40 years I know better now. I barely have the strength to get up and face the pain of living another day. The best part of each day passing is knowing I am one step closer to heaven. I have read many of your books and for a long time they helped. Back when I believed God heard our prayers and cared. Now I don't know what to cling to . . .and oddly enough, my middle name is Faith. A cruel irony, huh?

By Sue in Florida

Stormie, is it possible to see pictures of you with your family and children, At home relaxed and not just one perfect pose. We here in FL. are casual. Your books reveal a deep walk of faith in a great and awesome Lord. In Christs' Service

By Janet in Ohio

Thank you Stormy for all you've given to me. I've read all your books and am now using your book "Better Health God's Way" as a devotion with my Bible. I'm being transformed and renewed daily. With love,Janet

By Rebecca

I do not believe it's going to get better. I wish I could just go to Heaven. I've been in pain all of my life and to think it will continue i'm heartbroken I just don't think I can fight any more.

By Marci

Stormie, I have four of your books and all are incredible and have really improved the way I pray. Thanks especially for the book on The Power of a Praying Parent!!! Through this book I have found the POWER of praying through Jeremiah 33:3 for my children!!!

dear god please lift up rebecca in jesus name heal her heart..you must believe it will get better in jesus name..we lift you up rebbeca now and forever in jesus name we love you amen

By Sherry

For me your fitness videos were a God send. They inspired me to become a fitness instructor. I have one of your prayer books. It has taught me that prayer is simply talking to God with scripture as our inspiration. I pray, you produce more fitness videos for woman to be inspired in fitness and prayer. Complete health comes from balance of the mind, body and spirit. I want others to have what I had with your videos. From reading the comments posted here and reading the prayer requests I see how desperately it is needed. Thanks for all you do in the Spirit of Christ. Sherry

By Ruth from Canada

Hello Stormie I just finished your book "Lord I want to be Whole" This is a must read for every one. It will not only help you personally, but it will change the way you pray. I have read all the praying books of Stormie, and this by far is the best. It is very personal, and each topic is so well explained in very practical terms. Lisa if your read this, you should get this book!! GOD IS GOOD.... ALL THE TIME.

By Lisa

What would be your thoughts on a Kids Prayer Warrior Camp during the summer? What resources could we use if the Book of Daniel and the Armor of God passages were used?

By Sharon

Stormy I love your prayer books and I have many of them. Right now I'm in a situation where I have lost so much ... my home, my income and my husband. I went back to school and recently graduated but now I can't find a job. There are 50 to 100 people applying for every job that I apply for. I recently was down to my last $4.00 and I had to ask my 89 year old father for a loan. Could you and others pray that I get a job and restore my marriage. We have a son together. Thank you.

By new fan

Stormie, I just started reading your book "The Power of a Praying Woman" and learned that your Mother was mentally ill. My mother is also. I can't say that I was mistreated by her, it was just that she was so unstable and not there for us. I have felt all my life that I have been handicapped by this. I don't trust my judgement and lack self confidence. I do know that I can trust God and am leaning on Him and His word to guide me. This book is a great help in that area. Thank you for following God's leading.

By Jose from Bolivia

Hi Stormie I would like to say thanks for all that you wrote, it is an inspiration for my life, I find really a blesing reading your books. God bless you and your family. With Love Jose

By Julie DeSimone

I pray everyday using your book for parents. I have been for 3 or 4 yrs.I am now in a place where all of my children are grown and I would love a book that was targeted for the challenges they face.Is there something out there?

By Dorothy

Hi Stormie, the book Power of Praying Wife saved my marriage. I am really thankful to God for such a wonderful book of you.

By Mary Jean

I purchased your book "The Power of a Praying Woman" two years ago. This books is taken everywhere! I pray for God everyday to show me where I should be in my life that will show hope to the world like you have, even if it is only one person at a time. Thank you!

By Nancy

Thank you for your book "The Power of A Praying Parent". My son, as yours, was in a serious car accident just recently. He was t-boned at the drivers door and his car totaled. He walked away from the accident with a few cuts from broken glass. I got your book a few years back and every day pray for the safety of my son who lives 1300 miles from me. I believe that God saved my son and also led us into chosing the right car for him six years ago that was safe and could sustain such a crash. I also pray through his apartment when I visit and last month someone tried to break in but were unsuccessful. While bad things happen, with prayer God affords the protection needed to get through these events. Again, thank you for your books.

By hweeshen

Stomie,I read your book the power of a praying woman, it's really awesome, especially prayers...they are so powerful, it's as though the lord speakes to me. I hope to be able to write books to inspire others like what you have done. please pray for me to seek clarity and to discern his will. keep mme in pryaer

By Carol

Stormie, Thank you SO much for your books. I read "A Step In the Right Direction" in 1990, and it changed my life! We were in an abusive church, and you mentioned something about "if you're in a church that controls your every breath, get out!" The Lord really used that passage, believe me, and it took a lot of courage, but we left that old church, and our lives are so much better now. I've read almost every book of yours that I could find, and it seems like you are talking just to me. Thank you so much for being willing to be used by the Lord. I have a very good marriage, and a successful teaching job, now, but I still struggle with low self-esteem at times. Please pray for me. Thanks!!

By Lenay

I am a changed person. Christ is real! I know He is because of the transformation in my life. I aborted babies, slept with many, many men, lied, manipulated and acted selfishly... that was before Christ- my Redeemer and Healer and mostly before I got married. Now I am married and have been since 1990. I'm not perfect- becuae i hvae Christ but I do desire Him more and more and to become more and more like Christ. To eminate Him and His Love in all that I am, think, say and do. I have been married almost 19 years as i indicated. We have 4 children- beautifucl and healthy- what a blessing. s But the baggage from prior mess and madness- sin ( his and mine) is and has been a constant stronghold.. in our marriage.... blocking healing and deliverance, forgiveness, trust. Especially his. I have prayed for him ( after getting a prophetic dream .." which was confirmed the next day- in the dream God spoke to me and said "I will save your husband before the summer.") Now I though that was a lieral summer. I was too young in Christ to understand that was a spirtual summer. That was in 1994.seemed like too long ago... but I admit God had to clean me up first... and change the desires of my "own heart" into His desires. No I undesrtand... God uses whoever is willing. I was willing at that time. I gave him my life ( didn'tr really know what all that meant) I started reading His Word and seeking Him. He became very real... to me... but I was not always willing to sacrifice. ( especilly in my marriage) at times I didn't even undesratnd that thast's what love does...even though I understood that's what God did for me! I felt at times God was unfair... Why? Because I was being ridiculed, accused, mistreated, misunderstood... not loved by my husband. I felt at times God loved him more than He loved me. I felt ( never said it though... but God knew-- That God allowed me to be hurt, He stood by and watchedmy pain and what felt like unfair mistreatmenteven though I loved God- knew He was good and had a relationship with him through Jesus. My soul didn't feel that way. I had too much there that I could reconcile in lieu of what I was dealing with in the marriage.-- those attacks. Most times I could not understand why? Some of it was strongholds ( I realize that now... things I had caused because of my own sins and things that were beign done because of my husbands' sins). Wow that revelation didn't come until recently. This has been and still is a journey. A journey of "Faith- the substance of things hoped for th eevidence of things not seen. But faith is also power the power to endure, to love, to be still to know God can and will.That "God is Faithful to His Word and His Love to us." I have been weary (at times... still get that way). No very, very weary with the strongholds in the marriage- these attacks are tiresome. I have been suicidal..lin the past but have begun to recognize that thought and voice for what it is... an attack of the enemy to make me give up. I have felt ( at times) like God did not love me enough to intervene during the attacks.. espcially from my husband.. when I wanted GHim to know my heart abut all he could reclall is my past mistakes and sins ( I've never been physically harmed.... but emotioanlly devestated by imaginations, fears,his distrust, anger and bitterness .. ever present and a fabric of our marriage. Over the years, I have desired forgivenss and trust from my husband. I have prayed and asked for forgiveness. Today, I have come to undesratnd -spirtually, that he's not equipped to do that.. not for a long time even though I belives he wants to. I already know He can't... not in his own strength... only God can teach us how to daily walk by an act of our will because we love HIM-- the power of forgiveness and through His Holy Spirit... even if our souls sreeches and hollers..it's not fair, it's not right, even if it hurts because it's not reciprocated... I have forgiven my husband and pray for Chhrist to illuminate his mind and enter his heart... to heal the deep wounded and fearful places.. that's my pray now. I pray for Him to know Jesus in all his glory and goodness.. he does intellectually.. just not through the Holy Spirit. This journey of the human soul- from deep hurt and devestation is very eye- opening. But because of the journey I have been transformed. So write tioday to let you know... I am thankful to Christ for using my mess for His glory. I am thanful to Him for teaching me the true essence of LOVE- HIMSELF. I am thankful for His revelation in my own liofe of what He LOVE looks like. I am thankful that even "if" this marriage doen't make it I know my husband will make it into the arms of Jesus for that is my sincersts prayer ( now dont' think that I dont't want mty marriage to make it.. I do... but it is not my Messiah Christ is and He is my Hope of Glory) I desire to be more like Christ as a result of learning about my own "impure" heart because of what I have endured and the journry I am own. I wnat His will to be done...let go of my demands to be forgiven, trusted, loved even liked and trading them for a desire that Christ be trusted and loved ( by my husband). I have come to a place of healing and an in a plce of "being healed" because I now understand true AGAPE (God's LOVE) doesn't demand it own way and will sacrifice for th egood of the other person. I am learning unlike before when I started this journey- this marriage- to keep praying but "now I've learned that there were and still are hidden chambers in my heart" that did not exalt Christ's Love. My own heart must be right (clean) and with the healp of the Holy Spirit- the revelator- I have come to understand how we if not careful can decieive our selves into thinking " we have oure/clen hearts" when Christ knows otherwise. So my prayers are right now. Not that thatey weren't befor.. but I use to prayer... Lord sve my husband ( so I will have a good marriage), Lord save him ( so we can get long and be blessed) Lord save him so ( i dont' have to suffer) Now I pray right prayers.. Lord reveal in me any secret sins. reknew in me a right heart and a clean spirit. I now pray Lord let him love you. I now have peace with those prayers. Wther he ever knows or believes my heart towards him ( my husband) is good and that I an genuinely sorry. --welll that's not my focus anymore. I trully want Him to know Christ- the Author and Finisher of My Faith. So I continue to pray for Him.. not so we can have a happy ever after marriage.. I pray for Him because "I" finally undestand God's Love and what it has meant for me. I pray for Him because I see the tormenting fear, uncertainty, hurts, rejection, and need to control- the strongholds that are opepprpasting I see the struggle he's in ( out of fear). I pray for him because he has no peace but I do (mostly when I keep my mind on Cjhrist Jesus and when I don't I'm weakned and find myself in despair) I pray for him now becuase I really love him" and want him to know Christ in the fulness of His power to touch, heal and restore..everything even olove, trust and hope in each other and the marriage.. that the enemy and sin have nearly killed. From ashes to beauty... that is my testimony. My husband, all husbands and people.. need to know that Christs' power is availabe (not thru tradition, not doctarine) but through the sacrifice of LOVE> God gave by giving His SOn. God Loves my husband and desires to heal him and make him whole. he has been using me any ways I'm sure I have yrt to undestand or uncover. But the journey- tranformation has taught me alot (though I still struggle with wanting a Godly, healthy marriage were we can love each other freely with out fears of rejection or mistrust). I still desire my husdand to look into my eyes and to know my heart.. that i love him - romantically and never meant to hurt him. Because of my journey I now realize the truest need he has ( we all have) whether it's a marriage or any other relationship is "the need for "Christ's love in our hearts" The need to totally submit our own will, desires, wants and demands to the Father... not my will but let they will be done.. as Jesus said in the Garden before he was betrayed. Because He loved so loved us... He willingly died... that's the revealation I came into recently.. be willing to die to the flesh and soul- but agian this is a journey or process a tranformation - not occurring overnight, so that Christ can live and have free reign and His will be done. Without Him power to make sacrifice(s) at that level...we can never understand, or be equipped, or even demonstrate HIS LOVWE to others ..and if not careful we will always find that we feel defeated, powerless lives-- especially in our souls. So my prayers have changed ( over the years) because "I have changed over the years." I don't pray "as much" for the marriage as I pray for my husbands' relationship with my Lord and savior. That Christ to be restored as the King and Lord of His Life..... that is the weightier need. After all He who is love, so loved that He gave Himself ( what a sacrifice). and because marriage is a sacrifice I see the relevance to Christ and Marriage. The need of women especially to trust God- no matter what... and be strengthned and empowered by the Holy Spirit to love (your husband...when all seems hopeless) with a pure heart, is only th lesson God can teach ... it is the place where God reveals deeper revelation and levels of FAITH and of HIS POWER and LOVE to the other person (yes through you... painful and often a very, very lonely journey) But eventually we learn ( I've learned the lesson he has been tryiong to teach,) the refining and transforming power of HIMSELF he's been waiting for me to catch up with HIS WISDOM- and HIS LOVE. That tranformative power is. simply this... HIS LOVE COVERS a multitude of sins, it is kind, it is patient, it desires and believes the best, it is faithful and hopeful, enduring and it is self sacrificing... if you look at what LOVE is whjat GOD is... He is fruitful and prospers in all he send His word to do. And His fruit ...is the FRUIT of the HOLY SPIRIT.. God knows a tree by the fruit it bears ( we bear). If we are His... then we obey Him (because we Love Him... because He first Loved Us... while we were yet enemeies.. sound familiar?) and therefore we can be led daily and will be led by His Spirit. Eventually, in time, wee'll bring forth fruit (much fruit) that looks like HIM---LOVE, patience, Kindness, Goodness, Meekness, Faith, Love , Peace, Joy.. Self- COntrol) this doesn't "just happen" in a vacuum. It happens in our realtionships with others.. through our pain, disappointments, our unfulfulled needs and desires where we ( especially women) come to realize that God through His Son Jesus is the "only one who can" fullfil us and our needs..... anyway.) So...that is the death "we" or I am undergoing currently in my marriage. And it is a death but in it is the promise of life for the marriage but epecially for my husband and his realtionship with Christ. Our Covenant relationship required Christ's sacrificial death- for there to be a covenant of the heart "in the first place... so that many sons and daughters could be born into His family... so many could live, bear fruit and by doing so could overcome unrighteousness with righteousness, joy and peace- the kingdom (here on earth). Thank God I have arrived at the destined place... a place of healing and rest ( though I still labor) I just don't labor in my strength anymore but in God's. Now I can finally rest from my own works because I've entered into His.. which brings me rest and peace I've never had before.

Hi Stormie, your books have been a true blessing which I have to pick up daily. I truely believe that praying the word is the best answer. However, I do have to admit that I get very weary at times because my husband is bi-polar and narcistic. Talk about a tough challenge that only God can conquer. Please all, keep me in your prayers to stand on His word.

By daisy, south africa

Hi Stormie I thank The Almighty for you. ever since i started reading your books, i am a happier, healthier person. Setting time aside to connet with God produces so much blessing. One day i went into book store - I wasnt sure which book I was looking for The Lord showed me The Power of Praying 3 in 1, i havent looked back eversince, buying all your books avaible in SA. Thank you Lord for Stormie and her family world wide.

By Carol

Hi Stormie! I am very grateful for your books! I have learned so much more about the way God answers prayer, and also how to have a real walk with him. Your books have really touched me. Thank you again!

By Laurie

Stormie. I just read your marriage book. A week ago I found out my husband was having an online affair with an old friend. It has been going on for a few months. Through your book I chose to forgive, but need prayer to learn to trust againa and for our marriage to strengthen. I love my husband and we have two beautiful children and one on the way. He is commited to make this work as well. I just need prayer

By Mia Fe From Philippines but presently here in Dubai

Good day to you Ms. Stormie.You're one of the most wonderful blessings that God gave to me.Your books have brought me to reality that apart from God I am nothing. At this very moment I'm trying to strengthen the faith that I have for our Creator. I'm so desperate for Him. I'm financially unstable right now maybe because of my disobedience or a test in my faith. Your books are my daily companion for I want to get closer to God and I want Him to be with me every second of my life. I don't want to be far from Him, I feel and experience His love for me but still I have so many fears in my life that I can't let go. Please hope I can receive a call from you. Hope I can talk to you. You are such a blessing to me from God. I need your help. I need to know God more.

By VERONICA

I READ THE BOOK "THE POWER OF A PRAYING WIFE" AND IT BLESSED ME, MY HUSBAND, MY MARRIAGE AND MY FAMILY. THANK YOU SO MUCH AND I THANK GOD FOR TEACHING ME THROUGH STORMIE. GOD BLESS ALL OF US.

Hi. I just bought your book but the Afrikaans one and I really hope and pray that it will help me. I know God has a plan for us and I just want to praise Him for all His has done already for me.

By Dee from Oklahoma

I love your big prayer book, i pray with it all the time.I work at a soup kitchen and I see so many heart broken and lost people that I wished I could give everyone of those your book to pray with and let it change their life. I really beleive in the power of pray with the scriptures.Thank you

By Deb

Dear Stormie, I am a little confused about something. I am reading "Power of a Praying Wife." It's excellent. I went to buy a copy for a friend who is starting divorce procedures. I saw your new book on marriage and then thought about buying that instead. But I didn't because in the section that talks about divorce it seems as though you allow for divorce if the person is just really miserable in their marriage, i.e., that God does not want them to be "unhappy." Did I misunderstand what you wrote? I didn't buy the book yet because I believe that the person who I wanted to give it to might read that section and think it's "okay" to divorce if you are just "unhappy." Do you believe in divorce for reasons other than noted in Scripture? (By the way, I wanted to email this to you, but there is no "contact" section on your website.) -Deb

By Dot

My daughter, Donna, was blessed to have her picture taken with you in Pensacola at the ewomen conference. She received a kidney transplant November 12, 2008, in Gainesville, FL, at Shands Hospital at the University of Florida. We are blessed indeed; it was a God thing all the way! Thanks for celebrating with us.

By Kathryn from North Dakota

Hello Stormie! You are such a blessing to me and countless others. I just began your 7 prayers that will change your life...I literally just started the book today. Suffice it to say I have had scales lifted from my eyes! I had a solid lump on my chest that I developed a few days ago literally after I finished a few sections the lump was nearly gone! I have been dealing with some major issues health wise for several months. This was a miracle breakthrough! Thank God for His mercy and may He continue to bless your ministry! Where can I provide an offering to your ministry?

By Emma

Hi Stormie - do you remember the names of the three books that Pastor Jack gave you to read long ago? Thank you very much.

By Julie from So. Calif.

I have one book from Stormie. The power of a praying wife...I loved it. Read it 4 times. So did my husband....Now I am needing a book about Caregivers of my Mother-in-law that lives with us and has Alzheisers. It is getting so trying on my husband and I. We have been together 28 years and I just started taking care of her (seriously) for the last 2 years. I am fried. I need a good book to help all 3 of us. Any books to recommend? Help me please.

By Amber

Dear Stormie, My husband and I recently started reading you books and truly love them! I would like you to consider writing a book for Pastors and their wives/family. Pastors and their families go through a lot of emotional things and a book focused on prayer would be wonderful. Thank you! God Bless!

By Jay

My hubby and I have been married 4yrs. He was not the good man I thought I married. He was selfish, cruel, and broke the hearts of my big kids and me time & again. We prayed, believed, and forgave, only for this man to do evil all over again. He walked out on us for the 3rd time, and this time I let him stay gone, and I moved on with my life. Now he says God has changed him & he wants to come home. I don't think he is capapble of change, but I am weakening due to the fact that we have 2 small kids together, he was good to his own kids. He seems genuine,but has deceived us many times in the past. Please pray that God's will be done, & that God gives me clarity. If my hubby betrays us again, we would be crushed beyond repair. I dont't want my big kids to hate me for that.

By Cosette

Dear stormie. I read your book and I need to find someone who can help pray for me like Sara Anne helped you. I live near Corvallis, Oregon. I'm depressed and desperate. Thanks

By Chidiebere from (Port Harcourt)Nigeria

Hello Stormie, I never thought this day will come.... a day that i will with my own hands write you to appreciate all that GOD has used you to do in my life. you may never know it all, But i need you to know that your name sits deep in my heart. U have mentored me, my marriage, my ministry and my motherhood. Am glad you gave GOD your all and answered yes to his call to pour out your life as an offering to HIM to be used in HELPING people realise that GOD cared for every detail of their lives and come into HIS fullness in a place of prayer. I want to dedicate my life helping people know and actualise BLISS the way GOD intended it in marriage. YOU have encouraged me greatly by letting the world see and know the GOD in you. I love you more than i can tell. Stay faithful to the course my dear. GOD BLESS YOU IN EXTRAORDINARY WAYS

The Lord has been really true and our faith has been built stronger as we have gone through some storms of life lately,God through his word has been speaking to our hearts,we give praise to The Lord. May our Lord continue to bless you in this ministry. With Christian love your Brother & Sister in Christ from Australia

By Julia

I have a friend who is suffering from psychosis and possible schizophrenia. All from drug use in past. He is committed Christian now and loves God dearly. I pray for him all the time. What can one pray for someone who has mental illness? Especially if you care alot for the person? I believe that some forms of schizophrenia are because the 'drugs' (in this case cannabis is main culprit) open up person's mind to hear and see things they should not or would not normally see or hear. Can one pray that God close those doors. How do I pray that? Can a prayer be put together and posted on the blog. I am desperate to see my beloved friend free from this mental illness and dependancy on medication to keep sane. Please help (from bottom of my heart).

By Lindy

May 27, 2009 Stormie I began praying the prayers in Power of a Praying Parent and Wife every morning three years ago. I have been very faithful and my books are literally falling apart. I press on because God is so good and has change my marriage a children and my walk with him in huge ways!@!!!!! I now teach at a christian school where my 9 and 12 yr old can have christian friends and role models. (sound familar?) Both my girls have been set free on strongholds I had no idea that they were struggling with, my son 19 has been protected many times during these teen years, my husband in now faithfully attending church and recently began read daily devos and talking to christian men about our Lord, my marriage has healed and because of my closer relationship with the Lord through pray and study our good Father has started using in a real way to minister to other weman. I just wanted to you to know that TODAY because of your obedience my life is impacting others... Thank you and praise God.

By Tammy from Canada

Thanks so much Stormie,today was the first time I've been on your web site.I have been stuggling with lonliness and the topic on the screen for today was about lonliness.God's time is always perfect. It encouraged me so much! I to strongly believe in the power of prayer!I want to continue being encouraged from your web site.God Bless.

HI Stormie, I think what you are doing is great. God bless you and keep you my sister.

By Cindy

Stormie: i found your book "The Praying Wife" in my mother n law's house. She let me take it since her husband passed and she is selling everything. It has brought me the prayers I was looking for for my husband. I can not thank God enough for you. I have even more peace and serenity than ever before. thanks again

By Evette from New York

I have a question from something you said in your book "The Prayer that Changes Everything" you say to worship God not his attributes. I'm confused by that statement, I need help to understand it. Thank you.

By S. From South Africa

Thank god for women like you! I read few pages from the book #Just enogh light for the step i'm on" and it turned my heart of stone in a heart of flesh! Here was words on paper that said all i wanted to say but could not uttered. Reading how you got free from depression has also helped me in my dealing with my depression and getting help. I have since started reading the power of a praying woman and trust in God. Never grow weary or tired for doing what you are dong now and God has already blessed you and yours with all that you mat ever need. Bless yA!

By Annie

Thank you so much for the inspiration that you have been to me Stormie! In January I started reading your books faithfully every day and praying the prayers that you have in them. I have seen so many things in my marriage change. I continue to pray daily that God will reach my husband and bring him closer to Him. I know my husband is a believer but I pray for his sake that he would get into Gods word because he is facing such poor influences each and every day. I pray that the Lord would destroy all communication with the people that are trying to damage or destroy our marriage and I trust God that he will do that but I become inpatient. I need so much help with patience. I know through the stories I read about you and other people that change can happen in an instant. I trust that one day my marriage will be fully restored to the way that God wants us to be. The encouragement that I receive from your website and books is tremendous. Keep writing! You are so blessed by the Lord to have the writing abilities that you have been given. You have touched so many lives.

By Sherry

Dear Stormie, I just picked up the paperback book of your life story that I found at a Half Price bookstore and I have just about finished it. I have cried with you as my heart broke reading the torment you experienced in your life. I wish so much I could meet you and give you a huge hug. I could relate to some small parts of your story, but I did not experience anything near as hard as you did. I have always loved your Power of prayer books and I pick them up at thrift shops and give them away. They are so powerful! I thank you for your Godly wisdom and for your testimony. We overcome him by the blood of the lamb and by the word of our testimony! And yours is an awesome one! I am also so glad you kept your name because it truly is a testimony in and of itself! You are Beautiful inside and out! I hope you will continue to write your Power of prayer books. Have you ever thought of writing one that is geared toward more serious issues? I know myself and so many ladies(and men) who struggle so much in more serious issues that are shoved under the rug and not discussed in church. Things similar to what you experienced and had to have deliverance for? Would love to talk to you more about this. My email is Sherrysborn2x@hotmail.com would love to hear from you! I might pass out if you emailed me but I'd still by thrilled! Love you, Sherry in Louisville PS...Any plans to come here by the way?

By Annie

Thanks and praise to our Lord for the outpouring of prayer that has occurred. I sure do feel the peace of the Lord in me. Thank you for the many prayers that are being said for my family. I am amazed at the power of God! Please continue to pray for our marriage. Stormie what a tremendous ministry you have going. I am so thankful for being in the midst of this ministry.

Stormie, thank you so much for writing The Prayer That Changes everything, it changed my life; it really changed my prayer life. I recommend it to everyone I talk to; especially if they are going through a difficult time in their life.

In December 2008 I lost my job for dubious reasons, I won't bore you with the details, lets just say it had nothing to do with the current economic climate or my job performance.

I have had this book for a couple of years and hadn't read it yet. In January, I was struggling with the emotional aspects of being unjustly unemployed and some winter blues when I was looking through my library for something to read. I had finished a book, and I am pretty much a compulsive reader. I moved the beginning of November, and I was actually finishing unpacking some books and looking for something to read at the same time. The Prayer That Changes Everything was on the top of the stack of books to be put up. It is no coincidence that I happend upon this particular book at that very moment.

I read the book through in a pretty short period of time. Then I went back to the beginning to read and to highlight the Scripture refrences in my Bible, and then to do the exercises at the end of the chapters. I had plenty of time on my hands with so few job opportunities in the Northern Kentucky area, I wasn't spending much time going to interviews.

I have been a Christ follower all of my life, I grew up in chruch, my dad is an ordained minister, I am and have always been actively involved in the life of my church family, etc.etc.

For several years now I have journaled my prayers with reasonable consistancy. Praying has been a consistant part of my Christian walk. I have to tell you that the way I pray now goes way beyond how I have ever prayed before. My prayer life is far deeper and richer than I ever imagined it could possibly be. I have, innumerable times, experienced the hidden power of praise since I picked up your book. I am awed by the power of surrendering what ever needs to be surrender, and praising God for who He is and His great faithfulness, mercy, grace and love; and for His Son, my Lord and my Savior Jesus the Christ.

As with my prayer journaling, I also wrote out my responses to the exercises at the end of the chapters. It is amazing to go back and read what I wrote.

A couple of days ago I was reading through, and the last activity asks what my greatest dream is no matter how impossible it seems, and to write out a prayer telling God I know He is powerful enough to make it happen. What I read blew me away. I wrote this somewhere around the end of January this year.

My dream revolved around my husband that I have not as of yet met, and building our home, that I designed, when I was in college, in the Raleigh, NC area where I lived for five years, and is my favorite place on God's green earth. I had pretty much forgotten about writing this until the other day.

When I read it, just two days ago, I read it sitting my bed, in Durham, NC. I have just taken a new and amazing job in Durham and just moved here as of July 11, 2009, the realization of this, and the implications of what this seems to indicate, took my breath away.

Stormie, I learned more about praying from your book than I have ever learned before in my whole life of my Christian walk. Changing how I pray and surrendering to praise and worship of my Heavenly Father has completely changed my life. I am so much more aware of God's hand in my day to day life. I know peace and calm, like I have never before experienced. I have a sense of joy beyond anything I have every known before in my life. My relationship with my Heavenly Father and with Jesus surpasses my wildest immagination. I have always enjoyed a close relationship with God, but this is a higher, deeper and wider relationship than I have every realized before. I have a whole new understanding of what it means to praise Him in the storm.

Thank you, Stormie, for following the leading of the Holy Spirit and writing The Prayer That Changes Everything. It changed me heart, mind and spirit.

Thank you!

Hi Stormie,

I have been hoping and waiting for you to write a new book called "Power of a Praying Citizen". Lifting up prayers for our cities and local government, our states and nation and beyond; including of course Isreal. What do you think?

By Sonya

I bought Praying for Your Adult Child yesterday and have already been comforted by the information therein. My daughter and son in law have been separated for some time and I am very concerned about them. This situation is so serious and affecting them and their children and those who love them. I am praying that God's Holy Spirit be poured out upon them and that they be directed to do the right things, that which is a benefit and blessing to one another. I pray that the Lord is with them and that they accept Him. They are many miles away and have been adults for years. I can pray that God works in this situation for the reconciliation of the two of them to one another and the restoration of their marriage. My daughter has been influenced by someone whom I believe is not concerned for her best interest and I am praying tha this individual is removed from the situation. Please join me and know that I am so grateful to you for recognizing that adult children need prayers and need God's Grace just as we all do. May God bless you. I am looking forward to reporting with a positive message about this situation.

By Teresa

My goodness! Thank you soooo much for your wisdom. Power of a Praying Wife is completely changing my life! I am so blessed I will be starting a group soon to share this with and to build each other up in the Lord. God bless you and keep you safe!

By Jessica

I read and applied the prayers from "The Power of a Praying Wife". What an encouragement. I have seen God work miracles in my life, family, and marriage!!! My husband left me after only a couple of months of marriage and 7 months pregnant. I chose to remain steadfast and OBEY God's leading no matter the cost. It took a year before he moved back home and another year or so before he truly fell in love with me. God is so good. So many "Christians" told me to leave and start over again, but God's word continued to say "Wait". So Glad I did. My husband is a wonderful husband and father. He has recently started attending church with the family! Waiting on God in prayer and commitment was the beginning of His miraculous work in my marriage.

Hi Stormy,

I want to ask you a question,Can I ask you a question,Query why pray to God as Lord ?

Stormie, Thank you for your inspiration. I believe God must have led me here. Being honest, I found your book in a Tuesday Morning store about a year ago. It sat on my nightstand for many many months until just a few months ago. With much turmoil in my life, I turned to the Lord and prayer as a source of strength. I read your book which also strengthen my belief in the power of prayer. I have much to learn and look forward to continued growth. Bless you for all that you do!!

Thank you for sharing about the health difficulties with your appendix. When I read this, I felt a quickening in my spirit for my husband who had been having some stomach pain. I shared your story and he made an appt. with his doctor. A week later he was getting his appendix removed. I praise God for that day when I read your miracle. It saved my husbands life. I use your books as my daily devotional and have been blessed beyond what words can say in this short blog. Thank you for your faithfulness to share your journey with us, so we can grow and share with others.

Blessings to you!!

My Husband and I have being going through some trial times, He constantly saying bad things to me. Please advice me in what to do.

By Teresa

Stormie, your books have made a huge difference in my life. A friend gave me the books, Power of a Praying Wife and Power of a Praying Parent. Since then, I bought Power of a Praying Woman for myself. God moves when I am faithful to pray, using the prayers in your books! Will you be writing a Power of a Praying Granparent book any time soon? I don't have grandchildren yet, but I am guessing it won't be long before I enter the grandmama realm.

By Mayra

Dear Stormie,

Thanking you in advance for your prayers,

Any help with this would be so appreciated.

PLEASE STORMIE PLEASE write a Power of a Praying Friend....soon

By Doris

Hi Stormie! Thank you so much for the "Power of Praying for your Adult Children". I have looked in Christian book stores for the last coulple of years on helps to relate to your adult child. There was nothing. Plenty of books on children and adolescents, but none for us baby-boomers with adult children. When I saw your book I was so excited. I am now teaching it to my Sunday school class. It is such a blessing to begin to learn how we can help our children through prayer. We don't have to feel we are not needed or wonder what we can do to help. You teach us how to pray for them. Thank you again!!

Hi Stormie, i´d like to meet you. i think you are a blessing of God in our lives. i live in Brazil, kisses

By Lisa

Stormie I just wanted to share with you how God touched my life thru your willing vessel. I have been married for 11 years. I say this with enthusiasm because I am only 29 and I can honestly say it was all God and your Book. I recieved your book in the mail by accident when I was 19. I had just found thru God's revealing discernment that I was married to a drug addict. Anyways long story short. God Delivered my husband one day at a time. My life is awesome and now my husband and I lead to lost to Christ. So thank you for your willing vessel and obeying his voice with your prayers.

By anonymous

Stormie you are trully a blessing. I have your books and use the constanly. Thank you

By Ingrid

Dear Stormie, many years ago, I had your long playing record of excercise to worship songs. I really loved that lp. Is is possible to obtain this on cd? I live in South Africa.

By Harriet

Dear Stormie,

In love you for obeying God and doing for His Kingdom. My desire before I got married was to have a better marriage than my parents. But believe me I am experiencing tough times. I am encouraged when I know that you went thru' those tough times by clinging to God. I am doing the same but I desparately now need a miracle. My husband(Apollo)does not talk to me, I was sick recently he could not even ask me how I was feeling! He wanted to Separate but We have prayed and he is still with us and I praise God for that. Please pray for me

By Webmaster

Hi Ingrid, I'm glad you enjoyed her exercise album. Unfortunately, they were never released on CD. If you find a copy on tape, you have our permission to make one copy, for your own use, onto CD or DVD.

Stormie, I have been praying for my marriage to be restored and that all other women that are in my husbands life would be removed. I am so thankful to you for your books that have taught me so much about prayer. I do have very hopeless days but once I start reading any of your books my hope is alove again in my marriage thanks to all the words of wisdom and also the bible vs. you reference. Thank you.

By Jenny W from TX

Hello Stormie, there's not enough space to write about how much my family has been blessed by your books. I can't say it enough THANK YOU. Do you have other prayer books to help me pray for my parents?

for example; How to pray for a mom who is too busy, a parent who is sick, a father who now wants to bond after 20 years of being absent in my life. When I am having a difficult time putting my thoughts together to pray, I simply pick up one of your books but I havent found any prayer books for my parents. Thanks again

By Jennifer

Hi Stormie,

I have read several of your books and I thank the Lord for your commitment to His call on your life. I have learned a great deal about prayer and the intensification that is necessary for God to bless his people. Anyway, I am experiencing a flow of married women coming to me for counsel with turbulent marital problems. I am married and my marriage has suffered some blows and now we are resting in the arms of the Lord. My question is, would you pray for me because I want to only tell these women what the Lord wants me to tell them. I guess I am just wondering why the Lord has me of all people ministering to women who are being beat up spiritually and emotionally in their marriages. I welcome whatever word the Lord has for you to tell me about this new move that I am experiencing. Thank you and keep up the work of the Lord.

By Betty

I heard your testamony in Springfield and was very identified with you. My background of extreme child-abuse and dysfunctional marriages has left me at times unable to relate in my walk with Christ at times. He is so patient with me and I am committed to Him as my Lord and Savior. But when I hear a story like yours, it brings so much back and I am once again struck with so much fear which paralizes me. I am 66 yrs old, so I dont have a lot of time to serve Him.

By dj Please help doing all i know to do

Stormie I need help with 6 year daughter in school. she studies and does not remember so she pretends.Stormie I am at wits end. i am in the military and is currently deployed but I pick my daughter up every weekend and call every day.stormie I have read just every book that you have written I need help with my daughter Her name is Hannah and her 1st grade teacher is name Rene Pray

I am unsure how to contact you, but I have been searching for your Exercise For Life program on DVD. My mother uses it faithfully every day and says that her VHS is going bad and would love it on DVD for Christmas. However, I can't find it anywhere. I wondered if you made it or if I can have permission to copy it somewhere?

By WEBMASTER

I'm sorry, we don't have any of Stormie's exercise tapes although they are sometimes available on ebay and amazon. You have our permission to copy the tape for your own personal use.

By Vee

Stormie, I received your book "The Power of Prayer to Change Your Marriage". My husband has confessed to committing adultery and our lives are in turmoil. I have found this book and your other book "Power of a Praying Wife" both inspiring and comforting during this difficult time in our lives. I have discovered my own 'issues' and continually call on the Lord to fix myself as well as my marriage. Thank you and God Bless You!!!

By Anne

I recently walked away from a 3 year long abusive relationship. I love this man and his children so much, that I kept going back for more every time he would tell me he had changed.We met right after the death of my daughter. Our girls were good friends and his marriage of 20 yrs had just broken up. At first I thought he was a gift from heaven. Taking care of everything for me, so loving, and kind I really thought I had met the man of my dreams.It wasn't until several months later I saw the first of his anger problems. I tried to leave then but, he guilted me into staying. Several more times I walked away but he either used guilt or anger to make me come back. He wouldn't let me go to work, and I know that sounds stupid but he had his ways of making me do what he wanted. I was under his control even when we weren't together. He would drive by my house, harass my family and friends, and make me believe that it was all because he loved me so much.

He even had an affair with another woman at the same time he was seeing me. She too was hurt, and has gone back to him everytime we break up.

It wasn't untill he threatened my life I realized no matter how hard I prayed for God to move in this relationship, my life was in trouble, and I had to get out before the kids were hurt any more.

I prayed for God to come to him, lead him back to God, and reveal the truth to him so he could see how he was being deceived by the devil. Then as it got worse I prayed for God to help me. Should I stay or go? I prayed for wisdom, courage, and protection for months. Then one night he exploded and told me to pack up and leave. I told him to calm down or I was going to call the police. He then threatened my life. So, I spent the night in my truck in the driveway. He kept telling me to come in, but I wouldn't. So the next morning he told me to leave if i didn't submit to him. I went to get help from the abuse hotline. He found out I was there and told me to leave over and over. Anyway, I left and as I was on my way to a new life, I found your book. Talk about with every dark cloud there is a silver lining! I'm so hurt, and full of all kinds of trash this man as dumped on me for years. But, in your book the praying woman, I found HOPE, PEACE and answers to my questions. I had been on a journey to deepen my relationship with God for 6 months. So your book is helping me everyday finding out all the things I have been doing wrong, and things I had no idea I was doing. It is a breathe of fresh air! I am truly now deepening my relationship with God and changing the things I need to change in my life. I know a abusive life is not what God has planned for me, and NOT what my daughter would want for me. I am on my way to a better life with God holding my hand. I trust him, he will turn all this around and make something good out of all the pain. It has proven to me just how evil the devil is! He will use anyone, anything to bring me down. It is my hope that anyone who reads this finds themselves in the same boat, turn to GOD! Let him lead you to where he wants you to be. I was lucky, I got out before he could hurt me physically. But, his abuse will take a long time to heal. Sometimes I wish he would have hit me. Don't take that wrong but, if you get hit, the pain stops. WORDS GO ON AND ON. I still hear him,and it makes my blood run cold. Through your book, I found how to call out to God, asking him to forgive me for falling into the devils trap, and giving into my fleshly desires. As I go through the book I have found years of baggage I need help with. And little by little God will show me how to get rid of this and close the door to the devil so he no longer has a stronghold in me!I have cried so many tears as I read, so many emotions I had no idea I had bottled up.

Thank You dear lady. I look forward to reading more of your great books! I am getting the praying woman combo next!

By Virginia

I wanted to write to you so much and I really hope you read this. I have been separated and divorced know for 6 months. I didn't wanted the divorce, I knew we could still work on it, we where going to counceling but something was missing. Little before he asked for the divorce I turned to the Lord and asked him for help!! At first I didn't understand why his answer was for my husband to ask for the divorce. I moved out and came back to my hometown very depressed and hopeless and I found your book The power of a Praying wife and I did it, I saw results in a month but being little in my faith and always wanting results quickly I get desperate. I found the power of prayer in marriage and I am learning even more about what GOD wants ME and expects from me!! Its hard and I know that it takes time and for now (my husband is having a relationship with a young women) I confessed to GOD that I was praying for what I wanted and that I thought I could make a miracle happen by myself. Only HE can do it so I released my husband to him and I am trying to pray for him because its hard, and I pray for myself so my FAITH gets stronger and stronger and for me not to give up on hope that HE can restore my marriage even though it seems imposible and far far away. Even though I am divorced in paper, I am still married in heart and by God.


I want to add one thing. God is the greatest and works for everyone!! I am a catholic and I think it has nothing to do with religion. Stormie has been an instrument of GOD in my life so that I dont give up on my marriage!!! I am born again in Faith and love for GOD in the same religion I didn't find it before. As I say God works in misterious, fabolous ways and I believe he sends crisis so that we can finally turn to him to seek the answers, love, fullness and everything else we tried to find elsewhere. Including a marriage.


Only he can fullfill a heart and restore our lifes. I really hope is not too late that I realized this and can change and save my marriage!!

By Lee Ann

You have changed my life in ways you'll never know. But I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

By Faith

Stormie, I just want to Thank you for doing what you do. One day I prayed and asked God to show me how to be a good wife. I knew what I wanted to pray for and needed to pray for but didn't know how to pray. When a co-worker introduce me to your book The power of praying wife, it was the best book I found besides the bible itself. Every answer I had about how a wife should pray or help her husband was in this book. This book has helped me so much until when my fiance tells me about a problem he is having or about to face, I tell him I am going to pray. I even notice now he will sometime ask me to pray for him because he know prayers are being answered. I look forward to buying your other books. Thanks again for what you do. Also I am glad to have join the Prayer Community. I enjoy praying for others and submitting my prayer request so others can help me pray.


By Tom

Dear Stormie,

Don't know if you'll ever get to read my message, but I want to thank you for your book--"Just enough light for the step I'm on", Its helping me through a tough time with employment. Its more than just helping me too its also helping me get something out of this time. Its helping me draw close to God which is ultimately what I want and would never happen if this employment challenge I'm going through did not come about. I'm living in Ireland, and I doubt if I'm the first to write to you from Ireland but anyhow--a big WELLDONE from Ireland---with prayers and love--Tom

Stormie,

I can not thank you enough for writing your book on praying through the deeper issues of marriage. I have been married for 27 years and did not realize that I had been suffering under emotional abuse. After reading your book, I had the courage to confront my husband with the issue. He also read your book and realizes that our marriage patterns are not normal. This a great first step that I never thought he would take. For years I felt intense suffering but did not know who to share it with or how to correct it. I can now see some light at the end of the tunnel. I pray that God will lead us out of this darkness and into healing and restoration. What is now occuring is the beginning of the answer to a prayer that I have prayed for almost 27 years. Thank you so much for sharing what God has taught you with us(the public). Only God knows how many lives have been helped by your obedience to God! May He continue to bless you!

By Faith

Stormie, I just want to thank you for what you are doing. I bought your Power of a Pray Wife and this book is wonderful. Even though I am not married but engaged this book has stil been a great help. This past weekend I bought The power of a Praying Women and again I have to say this is a wonderful book. I was so amazed every time I read something that I needed. Please keep up the good work. Please continue to pray for me. Thanks

By Gisele

Thank you so much for your books, they are part of my devotion time. I especially needed the Power That Changes Everything at a most difficult and sad time in my life. I look forward to your latest publications.

God Bless you and your family this Christmas!

By Linda

Stormie: Back in 2005 at the age of 41 I was diagnoised with Metasitic Melonoma. Between operations I grabbed some books off the shelf at WalMart for reading and one of them was "Just enough light for the step I am on". That book took me out of a very dark place, and allowed me to see God working in my life and use the Cancer as a way for me to realign my purpose. Since then I have bought and handed out probally 75 of those books and gave them to others in hard times. I actually wanted to start a bible study with them as well, on a large scale. I had a reoccurance last month with another tumor, but God in his grand way took care of everything and again it opened up an avenue to "tell my story". I would like to share my story, actually Gods story about my life, and am waiting for that opportunity to direct me. Are you available to be emailed? Are you ever going to be in the Chicago Area. Merry Christmas as I look forward to hearing from you. Linda.koehling@gofcm.com

Dear Stormie, I am so thankful the Lord has chosen you as one of his instruments. I have been thinking a lot about our Country and our troops and how scary our Country has strayed from God. I was wondering if you have the resources or a calling to write The Power of a Praying Soldier? I think that would be the best gift we could put in a care package for our troops.

I have just begun reading your book about praying for adult childrent. And I just had to tell you that your words and wisdom have brought me hope and light in a dark time.

I pray that God continues to bless your ministry. You have no idea how powerful your books have been in the lives of so many people. Thank you for serving Him. I now am waking up in expectation of what God is going to do in the lives of my children.

Stormie,

A very good friend had lent me 2 of your books several tears ago when I was in the beginnings a very bad divorce. Although I have forgotten much, your basic message and intent apparently stayed with me. I was led to find your website today even though I couldn't even remember your last name.


Once again I find myself in a very bad place. No job...an ending to a serious relationship...debt...and in desperate need of a deeper relationship with MY FATHER. I want to thank you for the help and hope you have not only given in the past, but also in the present.

By rebecca

please help. i am trying to forgive my mother. i have faced rejection from her and my siblings, nieces and nephews. is this emotional abuse? i feel severly depressed and emotionally damaged and i cannot get free. if i learn to forgive, do i have to have a relationship with them? it depresses me to be around them. i don't know what to do and can't hear what god is telling me. do i just let them go? please help

By monica

i am really enjoying the power of praying for you adult child book. it's perfect - filled with such wisdom and practicality. i have already recommended the book to several friends.

thank you stormie for your commitment to the Lord and prayer. it's clear that you've dedicated your life and time to God and i am so thankful.

By Roni

Hi Stormy- I read your praying wife book a couple years ago, and have tried to practice it in my marriage. My husband sounds much like yours was, I have 2 small children, and I am struggling with the prayers. I would really like to communicate via email (or phone) with you or someone who can give me more direction. How do I get past my pain, bitterness, and woundedness enough to let go of the negativity, unfair-fighting, and the cruel things he says to our children? Then, when I DO get to that point where the prayer is working some, I think I am simply denying the reality, and placing myself to hop on the merry-go-round again....

By Roberta

Thank you for your book "The Power of a Praying Woman". Is there a workbook or discussion guide that I can use in my Bible Study group that goes along with this book? Blessings,

By Phyllis

Plese start working on a book, "The Power of Praying for your aging parents." My kids are going to need it. I'd love to know my kids were praying for me as I move into older age. Already 61. Looking forward to the future God has.

By Inez

Dear Stormie,

Your book, "The Power of a Praying Parent" guided me through raising my children. Now they are in their twenties, and I thought to myself,"I wish Stormie would write a book on parenting adult children." Amazingly, I got a catalog this morning in the mail and saw that you have, indeed, written one! Praise God, and thank you so much! I'm going to order it. I can't express how much you have helped me through the years. The Lord is mightily using you. Thank you for allowing him to minister to us through you!

God bless you!

By Beverley

Stormie, I have read most of your books and I just want to thank you for your remarkable writings and prayers which have changed my life tremendously. They have been a great inspiration and encouragement to me. I pray that God will continue to fill you with His love, so that you may be able to continue to encourage others. God Bless you.

By Angela D

Stormie, I went to a conference about 5 years ago that you were the speaker at. I prayed that if it be the Lords will he would call me by name to the stage knowing that no way that would happen. I was in the lobby purchasing some cds when I was called by name to the stage to receive a gift basket I had won. I had another incident later that happened at a Beth Moore simucast and ask the Lord if that was his will to have her say my name during her event. I and my sister was very surprised when she said Angela in the middle of her lesson though she was talking about someone else my prayed had been confirmed. I have some questions on being a conference speaker though I have never written a book. I have been delivered from many things and would like to share with women on how to forgive and alcoholic husband and have freedom from alcoholic memories. I am a mortgage broker and feel the Lords been calling me to this and I don't know how to get where he wants me to be. I have let years pass by knowing he has called me to have a ministry to help others.

By Lisa TW

I just wanted to Thank you. I wish I could write more. But the short of the story is. I recieved your book by "accident" over ten years ago at the same time i found out my husband was addicted to drugs. I prayed for him everyday for years, he is now leading he mens group at church. Thank you for hearing the spirits voice and acting on it.

By Amy

Stormie, I am wishing you all the best. It is inspiring to see such a talented person like yourself. I have not gotten your book on the power of prayer for marriage but, do look forward to it soon. May the Lord inspire you even more and give you more talent to pour out to us !!!!!

By Marisa

I,like so many, are hooked on your books! I just finished "Stormie". I could so relate to you because I saw myself in relation to the low self esteem, the verbal abuse by my mother and not ever being able to do the right thing and please her. I, like you, was always responsible for most, if not all of her unhappiness. My Dad took the heat for some as well. Even today (at 93 yrs. old) she is not wanting to see me for the last 3 months. Though she has it rough over the years, she has also had many blessings which she does not seem to appreciate. She has been blessed with so many grandchildren and great childrenbut she has favoritism towards one and makes it obvious. She puts my down, because they are mine, I guess. I pray for her and forgive her as well, though it is not easy but is becoming less difficult. Thank you, Stormie for being so honest and being the person that created you to be. You have been and are an inspiration to me!

By Abbi, South Africa

I read your three books, praying thru the deeper issues of marriage, power of a praying woman and power of a praying parent. i think all of them are incredible pieces. i read through the first one when my marriage was really going through a serious challenge, the infidelity problem. i thought rather than walking out i would rather stay and pray and try to work things. it is now almost two years and my husband has decided he still continues with his affair. it has reached a point i am feeling although i never wanted to consider divorce right now it is time i do so i can move on. unfortunately my prayer partners think i have now hardened my heart because my husband has hurt by making it clear he is not going to leave the girlfriend, they tell me i don't trust in God to change my situation. I am so confused because now it appears to me that God would be so angry with me yet i am dealing with someone who is not even sorry that in the first place he is having an extra-marital affair. He is continually breaching our marriage vows but am told i don't trust that God will change my situation. I believe God has created marriage to be respected not for one patner to abuse the other indefinetely. I feel like I am being blackmailed on account of my faith....

Stormie, thank you so much for your low-impact exercise video, FIRST STEP. Yes, it's been around for years. Last year I bought my second copy (wore out the first one!) While I had Chronic Fatigue and Immunine Dysfunction Syndrome, it was the only exercise program I could handle---sometimes only small parts of it. Now that I am "older," I find it excellent for my senior years---keeping my body limber and fit and still not over-stressing my current capabilities.

I have one problem---when I'm traveling, I could sure use a CD version to use with my laptop. Is there any possibility that this is in the works? I would be ever so grateful because the minute I stop using it, I can sure feel the difference and I have to travel about nine weeks of the year or more.

By Pamela

I have been so blessed by the books you have written. Power of a Praying Parent has given me a new relationship with my 3 kids I never thought I would have. Thank God for the wisdom and gift He has given you.

By Anne

Stormie, in your book "The power of a praying Woman" you talked about how you suffered from depression and abuse. I lost my daughter almost 4 yrs ago, and right after her death, I met my abuser. I have spent the past 3 1/2 yrs at the hand of his mental abuse. Which has left me homeless, penniless, and in such a deep depression I cant move. I have no self esteem, no self worth, I cant manage my life or find help. I have 3 dogs that are my happy place. My daughter and I rescused them and they have helped me through all this. I have prayed and prayed and prayed for God to lead me back home to Tx, and give me a place where the dogs and I can live, get a job, and have peace. Every crisis center I contact tells me I am not within the 16-35 agr group so they cant help me. What do I do? If it was you that was kicked out on the street with 3 dogs, no job, no home, nothing, how would you get your life back? He wouldnt let me work and right after I lost my daughter my job was closed. So I have no work history to fall back on. I am reaching out for help! What do I do? I really feel like I am losing my mind and at the end of my rope

By Caroline

Hi Stormie,

I would love it if you could write a more generic "The Power of the praying" so that we could incorporate it at the end of dinner together as a family. The other books are focused on a particular person, but it would be nice to be able to pray for such topics as described in the other books without pinpointing a person or people.

Thank you for praying for me. My hubby is with me. Jan and Feb were like honeymoon months. However, last week signs of withdrawal and silence emerged. I know God is interested in my marriage, and his salvation. How do you advise me to pray? I want to enjoy my marriage and not be on egg shells. I am praying and believing God

my life, of empty nest. Bittersweet. Love, peace, and JOY to you and your family!!!!!

we are studying the DVD curriculum for the power of a praying woman and notice there is a similar curriculum for the power of a praying wife. is there a similar curriculum for the power of a praying parent too? if so, where to get it?

...

In answer to your question, there isn't a DVD on The Power of a Praying Parent. Stormie's only DVD series are The Power of a Praying Woman and The Power of a Praying Wife. Both are available at www.SampsonResources.com

Hello, I have to write you to thank for the book The Power of adolescence that moment, I finished reading today and cried a lot at the end of chapters because I felt God speaking to me all the time, especially in the last chapter. Today I am living away from my mother, because I need to study for a better future, and the day I was leaving my mother is Christian gave me your book so far and this was the best book I ever read. I thank God for having enabled you to write those

Hi Stormie,
I have read your books before. Right now I wish I had the book on Power of a praying wife. When I read that I always felt the present of GOD and that he heard me. I don't have the book in my possession now but I wish I did as my husband needsthe power of these prayers so desparately. He is suffering from depression as his business is not doing well my 92 year old mother lives with me and has been struggling with debilitating storkes. No speech ability to walk etc. I too have had surgery this past week and the list goes on and on. I have read the power of a praying parent also. I'm still saying the prayers for my two children that have no one in their lives. My daughter has suffered from depression and she is so lonely . 28 years old and still searching for the RIGHT ONE!. I sometimes wonder if it is in her plan. I hate thinking she will be alone when I'm gone, My 33 year old son works with my husband and he fears for his business. He also is alone in his personal life and I pray for his emptiness everyday. My other daughter is married with three beautiful children.
I guess what I am trying to say is please pray for us

Hi Stormie, Thank you for sharing your gift of prayer with all of us. I have learned so much by reading your books and praying the prayers that you have written. Now I am able to recognize that God gives me just enough light for the step I am on. My life is changing so fast that I can bearly keep up with it. There are so many blessings taking place and at the same time, Satan is attacking in other areas of my life. But greater is He Who is in me than he who is in the world. I just keep right on praying and believing that God is in charge and that He will answer all of my prayers in His time. May God continue to pour out His blessings upon you and your beautiful family.

By Teresa

Hi Stormie,

I just want to thank you for using your gift of prayer to help so many of us learn how to pray. I pray that God will continue to pour out His blessings upon you and your beautiful family.

By LARRY

The Power of a Praying Husband, Chpt. 11, Her Sexuality, you make NO mention of us men that cannot perform sexually and how my wife NEVER lets me forget this. I am sad that I cannot perform, but God did this to me for His reason, and I do not question it. My wife's bitterness over this results in me not even wanting to be non-sexually involved with her. I DO LOVE AND CHERISH MY WIFE TO THE POINT THAT I WOULD INDEED DIE FOR HER THIS VERY DAY! Please address this issue in your future writings.

There are procedures that could help him. check it out with your own dr.

By inquiring

Stormie, would you go to Joni erickson tatah in person and pray with her for God to heal her cancer. What do you think that would do for this woman who does not have legs to move or a world that she has lived like God blessed you with. Pls don't think this is coming with sartisticness, just wondering if people who have, can still do for others who have not.

By question

I read all these requests and see that most of the prayer requests are the same. I wonder to myself, does prayer change anything? Or does God just have a direction and plan for each of us and prayer will not change the outcome anyway? I love to talk to God, but I am beginning to think prayer does not change God's plans. Why would he need to change his plans when he is a perfect God. His ways are not ours neither are his thoughts. Does anyone else think this way?Is this wrong? I don't know.

By Angelica

Dear Stormie,

I would like a Book of Praises

I love praying but I would like to do praises for the Lord He already knows what I need so I just want beautiful words to tell Him How much I love Him

By Tracy

I had given all but given up on my marriage until I pulled out your book Power of Prayer to change your marriage and it changed ME!!!! Literally as I sat there and read it I realized not what my husband needed to do to change HIMSELF but what I need to do to change ME!!!! I have been approaching things all wrong. Although he does do alot of things that upset me and our family, I have to practice forgiveness rather than anger and you book showed me the steps!!! I cant thank you enough!!!!

By PH

Hi Stormie, I would like to know why God let's you go to the very end when it looks like it's hopeless and you wantot say forget it? I lost my job and now they have cut my unemployment. I was looking for a job with no results. Things semed to get worse after I even prayed. I got out of bad situations that were to the very end. God came through, but why does He do it again like this and He already knows that I had trusted Him? I am confused about all this and am getting tired of feeling like(I hate to say this) but like I am getting toyed with. I know maybe I'm not but that feeling is tempting to give into.

By God's way

I wonder how many of us who visit this site really TRUST the Lord? We must not think he can do a thing without others praying. I think it's good to pray for others, I just wonder how many want to hear Gods answer and who is willing to except it. God will do what God want's and no amount of our whinning will alter his ways or his plan to have control over us and our lives. We want a drive through prayer life. Now, quickly and the way we order it.

By Nicole

Hi Stormie,

A friend of mine gave me one of your books on prayer. I am a Christian and have been since I was a little girl and I first accepted Christ into my heart at 8 years old. It is a struggle to live in this world filled with pain and sorrow. At times I feel hopeless and wonder if God is really there or if He is really listening to my prayers. Someone told me that you had a powerful testimony, so I looked up your website so I could learn more about you. I just wanted to say thank you so much for sharing your story and for being such a light and a blessing to others, including myself. What a good reminder it is to realize that God works through everything, even the most painful experiences, to bring about good for those who love Him! I am really grateful for your ministry. God bless and encourage you today!

Dear Stomrie,

Every morning I thank God for all His blessings and for you. I cant wait to go to your website to see the daily prayer. This week it isn't showing up. I don't know if it is my computer or if your having tech problems. I hope it gets fixed soon I really need that daily prayer!

By Lisa in Mississippi

Stormie, I am in the middle of planning a ladies prayer retreat to pray for our adult children. The Lord has strongly put this on my heart to do. We will gather for a weekend in a cabin by a lake and spend all time in worship, praise, repentance (preparing our hearts), fasting and prayer. I will ask each mother to purchase your book and we will go 1 chapter at a time and pray together and individually for our children. This event will be held in Sept. and I would appreciate your prayers as I allow God to lead. Thank you so much for your books. Many have been an inspiration to me.

By Ken

I am posting on the blog, both in the hope that it will get to Stormie, and also that some of you will respond with insights and ideas.


I am wanting to use Stormie's book, The Prayer That Changes Everything, as the framework for a worship curriculum for children. In her book, Stormie relates how Pastor Jack didn't just demonstrate worship--he taught it. As a Christian school administrator, I have observed that most religious curriculums revolve around doctrine rather than worship. As a result, our children often grow up knowing about God, but not knowing Him intimately. Their hearts are not captured by Him, and their relationship with Him is shallow.


It seems to me that Stormie's book could be adapted to children's understandings, fleshed out with music, age-appropriate prayer, stories, etc., and in the hands of caring adults could lead children into the wonders of a deep and personal relationship with God. If this possibility touches your heart, or if you would like to help bring this idea to fruition, please respond with a blog post. God bless!

May I add my thanks to you for your ministry? I started out with "The Power of a Praying Wife" and bought copies for friends. I just feel blessed,as well,for your faithfulness to seek God in your life as He has allowed you to share with us what you glean from your time with Him. I will try to pray often for your health and constant renewal of your mind so you can continue what you are doing for His Kingdom. I am going to try to buy more copies of "The Power of a Praying Husband book of prayers" next to send. I have been married 36 years and heard someone refer to an anniversary as "We have served 36 (place your number) years of our life sentence together". I truly feel it is a life commitment and grieve for the couples we (my husband and I) have tried sharing Christ with who are now divorced. People nowadays seem to think it is too hard to try to make a marriage work. I don't understand why if they profess to be saved, they do not try praying together and seeking God's guidance. Today is Tuesday, August 24, 2010 and I thank you for allowing us to encourage you as you do for us through your books. Although it would be really wonderful to meet you in person and give you a hug from our wonderful Heavenly Father; I will pray you can read this and smile to know you are truly blessed and loved for that faithfulness I already mentioned. May God continue pouring His blessings upon you by allowing your husband and children to get saved and live for Him if they aren't already.

By Marcy

Your book, "The Prayer that Changes Everything" (along with the Bible) has changed my life. I would love to have this book as a Bible Study for my church bible study group, but can find not video or study guide. I there one???? I feel that more Christians need to know how important WORSHIP is in their lives (as well as prayer). I don't know how you will answer this. I hope you will somehow... Hopefully, in this blog with I will watch. I would like to begin this study after the first of the year...
