Spiritual Connection Within - W. Ruben Exantus - Bog

A few words about the origin of this book and why it was written will help the reader to understand its teaching. This book is the outcome of a series of Bible studies I taught on prayer at Grace Baptist Church of Apopka, a church I pastored for nearly twelve years in Orlando, Florida. The idea came to me while putting into practice what I taught the congregation concerning prayer according to God's will.
A great number of people go to church every week across America and around the world, but unfortunately, they never have a personal time with God in prayer. The only time they spend in prayer is when they gather with the congregation for corporate worship. Can you imagine a Christian who only prays to God once or twice a week? Prayers addressed with others practically means there is nothing personal about it. Don't get me wrong. I believe in corporate prayer, and I think it creates an atmosphere of worship and fellowship where many believers get together to pray. It is essential to the life of a church. The true church of God will not go without it. In addition, there are those who pray to God often and alone. They seek times of silence in their lives to be with God alone and pray. However, there is an important question that must be addressed if we want God to answer our prayers. Do we pray according to God's will? I believe deep in my heart that there is a great misinterpretation among Christians in regard to the subject of prayer, which leads to a lack of spiritual power in many followers of God. I think it's time for you to find out what might be the cause of that spiritual weakness.
