A Theology of Prayer
Overview
We need to learn how to pray according to the Bible because when it comes to prayer, ignorance is not bliss! God demands that we approach Him the way He commands in Scripture. When people in the Old Testament broke this rule and offered “strange fire,” divine wrath came upon them. The New Testament in Heb. 10:29 warns us that divine judgment today is worse, not less, than under Moses! In a concise way, A Theology of Prayer uses Scripture to provide instruction on how to pray properly.
