As a new mom, I so appreciated having one of Jodie Berndts previous books to guide me in praying for my babies! Now Im thankful for this book, as Jodie beautifully lays out the Scriptures to encourage my own prayer life and walk with the Lord.

Jodie Berndt is the mentor and friend we all long to have. In this book, she ushers us into the presence of God and teaches us to stay there as she gives us deep theology in a practical, inspiring, and truly comforting way.

This book is one youll keep on your nightstand and pick up over and over.

Prayer is such a powerful tool in our lives, but as Jodie Berndt reminds us, it is not a one-way conversation, with most of us doing the talking and asking. Praying the Scriptures for Your Life is a great tool to draw each of us closer to God, especially in these uncertain times. As you pause to pray over the next thirty-one days, you will see Gods provision and power work miracles in your life. Gods Word is alive and active and sharper than any double-edged sword and is meant to draw us closer to the One who desires an intimate relationship with us.

Anne Neilson, artist and author of Angels: Devotions and Art to Encourage, Refresh, and Inspire

Im so grateful for the way that Jodie Berndt continues to teach us to pray the Scriptures, this time focusing deeply on the intimacy of our inner world in relationship with the Lord. I love the way she combines gentle inspiration with practical examples deeply rooted in biblical truth. This is a powerful and necessary book.

Jennifer Dukes Lee, author of Growing Slow and Its All Under Control

If you long for your prayer life to be more than just a shopping list of personal requests and a few quick Bless them, Lord sentiments for others, Praying the Scriptures for Your Life is just the resource you need. Packed with practical ways to deepen your walk with God, Jodies book will guide you to an enriched prayer time as you not only become resolved to make connecting with God a priority but are shown just how to do so.

Saturate your soul with the Scriptures. This is the message of Jodie Berndts newest book on prayer. Soaking our hearts and minds in Gods living active words and then forming them into prayers is a profitable practice for abiding with the One who loves us more than we can imagine!

Her new book takes you deeper and allows you to linger longer in Gods truths and in the power of prayer. As you abide in God, he will transform your life and through you bear much fruit for his kingdom. God will give you the ability to live out the fullness of all he has created you for.
