Quotes From "Fervent: A Womans Battle Plan To Serious Specific And Strategic Prayer" By Priscilla Shirer

1
Unforgiveness is a strategic "design, " craftily implemented by you enemy to "outwit" you, to cripple your effectiveness in prayer and your power to stand against him victoriously. Which is why, if I were your enemy, I would do everything possible to keep you from forgiving anyone and everyone who's done you any wrong. Priscilla Shirer

(People) either overestimate Satan's influence and power, living with an inflated, erroneous perspective of his abilities. Or they underestimate him. They don't assign him any credit at all for the difficulties he's stirring up beneath the surface of our lives.. Satan is not God. And he is not God's counterpart or peer.. Satan is nothing but a copycat trying desperately to convince you he's more powerful than he actually is.. So even though he's given temporary clearance to strategize and antagonize, we don't need to pray from a position of fear or weakness against him.. But we can't expect to experience this power unless we're serious about joining the battle in prayer. Priscilla Shirer

As we practice implementing this incredible power tool He's placed in our hands, He divinely positions us - even a little life like ours - in His grand purpose for the ages. Through the connective tissue of prayer, He cracks open the door that makes us at least a small part of how these massive plans of His are translated into the lives of people we know. Including ours. Priscilla Shirer

(The enemy) laughs at your attempts to fix your own issues with timely words and hard work - tactics that might affect matters for a moment but can't begin to touch his underhanded, cunning efforts down where the root issues lie. Priscilla Shirer

You may not understand what all's happening in your life right now, but any possible explanation pales in comparison to what you do know because of your faith in God's goodness and assurance. Priscilla Shirer
