This is a well-done, thoughtful book, with very solid ideas. I found many of the prayers to be very helpful.  This is not a book that you want to rush through. Instead, take your time and meditate on each prayer, which of course, is based on a passage from the Bible. Perhaps just pick one to study each day.Here are some of my favorites in this book:♦ "The works of your hands are faithful and just and all your laws are trustworthy"♦ "I realize more and more how little I understand of you."♦ "O God you are great in majesty, glorious in holiness and full of wonder."♦ "Shape me into the image of your Son. I am as clay in your hands."The book has been well-edited, and includes these features:♦ The Table of Contents lists each of the 31 prayers.♦ At the end of the book, there is a list of all the scriptures used.♦ There is a list of links to other works by the author, as well as to a book on prayer by Charles Spurgeon.Minor formatting nit: In my copy, on prayer #27, the text goes into bold. for a page or so.Here are some of the author's other works that you may find helpful:Praying Through the Prophets (The Complete Series)Praying through the Prophets: Jonah, Micah & NahumPraying through the Prophets: EzekielPraying through the Prophets: Habakkuk, Zephaniah & HaggaiPraying through the Prophets: HoseaWestminster Directory: A Directory of the Public Worship of God (Annotated)√ All in all, this is a a fine devotional and prayer guide. Each of the prayers has been thoughtfully prepared, based on a sound knowledge of the scriptures.  Recommend!
