Prayer is one of those things. We know we should do it, and maybe we even want to. We see others do it, and maybe we do it ourselves. For some, it is a discipline or a habit, but for others, it is a struggle. But would any of us say we are great at it?

Praying with the Former Prophets continues where Praying with the Torah left off. In this book, we will take the next steps in walking through the Scriptures to learn the wisdom God has shown us about prayer. We are diving further in, exploring each prayer with more depth and discovering new and more complex applications of God's wisdom in regard to prayer. Praying with the Torah left off at the end of Deuteronomy, and Praying with the Former Prophets picks up in Joshua.

My invitation and hope for this book remain the same. I invite you to dig deeper in exploring God's words. I hope this process will develop an ever-growing passion in us to walk in fellowship with the Living God. I trust we will continue to develop and reinforce habits. I expect we will continue to be inspired and gain a richer perspective.

Praying with the Former Prophets is the second installment of the Praying with the Bible Series. This series presents prayer in a way unlike anything else. Rather than leading readers in reiterating scripted prayers, this book explores how the Bible presents prayer, in both positive and negative perspectives. If you're searching for a comprehensive look at the way the Bible presents how to pray- and if you want to learn from the earliest followers of God how the practice of prayer is intended to be used-then you'll cherish Praying with the Former Prophets as an indispensable resource.
