This book was written during a period of my life when my spiritual life shifted to an understanding of the authority of every believer as it pertains to prayer. I realized that the Holy Spirit can help each of us break out of passivity and shift into fervent focused prayer exercising full authority over the enemy in prayer. The information in this book helps to accommodate that shift. The principle of speaking to the mountain is not an optional exercise but critical to our fulfilling a long satisfying life. I pray you receive the divine shift in your spirit as you read this 141 page book. There comes a time in every Christians life when the thought comes to mind even more than once this situation has gone too far and is out of control. During these times we begin to yearn for answers to our circumstances that are magnanimous. Initially we may blame men for the circumstances but intuitively and scripturally we begin to suspect there is an evil force called the enemy who controls and influences people and situations. Many times we end up in such a pickle it takes a miracle to get us out of the situation. The Holy Spirit is always ready to raise a standard against satan through us and this requires a genuine spiritual shift in our spirit man from a passive mode to a commanding mode mixed with strong faith. This book grants awareness of this spiritual shift and shows how critical it is and how logical and how natural it is to make this spiritual shift as part of functioning in Gods Kingdom to achieve longevity. Some of the topics covered are the role of angels that minister for us, only mature Christians can fight successfully, dealing with the enemies within us before we can address the enemy outside us and so on. God wants to see us experience the victory through Jesus Christ along with character to have faith in God during severe hopeless trials.

If we're honest, most of us feel bored, distracted, or discouraged in prayer. We look for resources to give us the "right" words or teach us the "right" technique and are disappointed when they don't seem to help. What we fail to realize is that prayer isn't a place for us to be good or right, and it isn't a place for us to perform or prove our worth. It's a place for us to be honest, present, and known--a place for us to offer ourselves and receive God. Spiritual formation experts Kyle Strobel and John Coe want to show you what you've been missing when it comes to prayer. In this down-to-earth book, they show you how to fearlessly draw near to a holy God, pray without ceasing (and without posturing), and delight in the experience of being fully known and fully loved. Each chapter ends with prayer projects or practices to help you see a difference in your prayer life, starting now.

FOCUSED Prayers Devotional Vol. 1. FOCUSED Ministries, Inc. was birthed during a time of prayer. The name came as a result of two college students praying for direction and asking God how He could use them to change the lives of young people. FOCUSED is an acronym that stands for "Focusing On Christ Until Spiritual Excellence is Demonstrated" based on the Word of God found in Proverbs 4:25-27 and Hebrews 12:1-2. From its launch, Dr. Baker, the members of the executive team, and dedicated prayer partners set aside every Wednesday to pray and fast for FOCUSED Ministries, Inc. As the prayers continued, people were saying how blessed and encouraged they were by the prayers of such a diverse group of Christians whose singleness of mind and heart was to see God's will done in the lives of our youth. Dr. Baker wanted to preserve the weekly prayers as evidence of FOCUSED Ministries' dedication and love for the youth and families they would serve even though they hadn't yet met. FOCUSED Prayer Devotional is a compilation of more than 365 days of prayers on behalf of our youth, families, and the organization as they continue the work to share the love of Jesus Christ. FOCUSED Ministries, Inc. wants you to read and meditate on these prayers and encourage you to develop a relationship with Jesus Christ through your own prayer life. We are commanded to continue in prayer (Col. 4:2), trusting and believing God that what we ask for in faith and according to His will, it shall be done. FOCUSED on Him! God bless you!

Prayers that strike the mark are specific prayers authorized by the Holy Spirit and endowed with divine power to accomplish the will of God in your life and for the needs of the world. On the cross, Jesus fulfilled the ultimate answer to all of our prayers, but He awaits our invitation to come into our situations and circumstances. When people of prayer intercede, they create a meeting place between the heavenly Father and His children. God comes upon the person who is praying and moves them from the natural to the supernatural. Empowered by God, the intercessor has the authority to cut down enemy forces and pick out "targets" for God’s lightning bolts of glory, bringing victory and breakthrough. Intercession could be called "extreme prayer” because it links extreme needs with the extraordinary power of God. Inserting ourselves into the gap between God and a need, we call upon the Holy Spirit, our Helper, who is ready to move us from finite ability to infinite ability, take hold of difficult situations, and help accomplish the will of God. We have the great honor of being called to “paint targets” on cities, churches, ministries, family members, contemporary "Sauls" (those who persecute or cause difficulty), and even ourselves. Our believing, persistent prayers will Strike the Mark! “He covers His hands with the lightning, and commands it to strike the mark” (Job 36:32 NASB).
