Description of 100 Amazing Answers to Prayer:
Books on prayer abound, yet books on answered prayer are few. In 100 Amazing Answers to Prayer, readers will find dozens of true stories showing how God responded to the requests of his people-sometimes in most surprising ways. William J. Petersen and Randy Petersen draw from the lives of ordinary people, celebrities, historical figures, and others to tell amazing accounts such as how: - The prison doors of two Christian relief workers in Afghanistan were opened after friends prayed day and night for their release. - A suicidal woman saw a vision of a phone number. When she dialed it, she was connected to a public pay phone-which was answered by the person she'd asked God to help her find. - Billy Graham, under spiritual siege, prayed about his floundering ministry and asked God to use him "a little bit." A year later, Newsweek dubbed him "America's greatest living evangelist."Each story packs a punch of faith-building inspiration that will touch readers of all ages and faith journeys. Quotes, prayers, and Scriptures lend devotional flair to this book, helping readers move into a life of their own answered prayers.
