The cover is back to front and upside down. Not sure it should be like this?

When I researched this book, I immediately felt they would make excellent gifts. I went ahead and purchased four of them. Phil Wickham has been one of my favorite contemporary Christian artists for a while so I was hoping I would not be disappointed. I just received them today. The book does not disappoint. I’m so glad I will be giving them as gifts and of course have my own. I was deeply touched by the introduction, enough to be brought to tears. The thoughtfulness is evident throughout, and such a great quality. If you want your prayer life on fire, this is a must have. I can already tell that it’s more than a devotional, it will be an adventure leading to an encounter. Thank you and God bless!

I had the unforgettable experience of seeing Phil Wickham in concert back in May 2022. Beyond his amazing musical gift, I left SO impressed with how he talked to us and led us in worship. His words went right to my heart and I felt God moving all around the room! It opened my eyes and my heart. I have never been the same! What a blessing that he is now an author and I can experience that for 40 days! What I love most about this book is that it is a quick read each day, but is also filled with scripture. The ideas are out of the box and really challenge me to think about God/Jesus and pray at a level I never have before. It helps one to step outside of their comfort zone and know that it is OK! It's not flowery or hard to understand, but is from the heart! I really needed this in my life at this exact moment. Highly recommend! I will be buying these for gifts and am even thinking of using them to lead a small group at church.

Guess what? God sees you. He knows what you’re going through. He loves you and longs to talk with you. This book is His mighty hand pulling you out of the deep waters so that you do not drown. Truth. It’s not by accident that you’re reading this. Now go read the book! :) You will be overwhelmed with joy as Wickham leads you on a journey, one day at a time, through 40 days of Scripture, promises, prayers, and prayer reflections. Honestly, it’s kind of hard to believe that such a great book is available these days. It exceeded my expectations. Wickham amazes us and invites us to do what God is doing. As we witness how this book fulfills the call on his life (and ours)to lead others to Christ and start a revival to help further the Kingdom of God, Wickham secures the place of best role model ever. And this book is written with an intimate vibe throughout, giving you the feeling that you are not alone. To say the least, this had a profound and overwhelming effect on my life and my relationship with God. I am experiencing a gradual revival a day at a time. And I’d love that for you too.

After recently being introduced to Phil Wickham’s uplifting worship music and then seeing him in concert this summer, I was drawn to reading this devotional inspired by his song, “Battle Belongs.” I had wanted to learn more about prayer and how to have conversations with God the Father, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit, so I decided to go on this faith journey for 40 days. I was not ready for the powerful effect on my heart that praying for my enemies, surrendering to God’s perfect timing, and waiting in quiet expectation to hear God’s voice would have on me. There were days that I was challenged to see God’s loving patience and grace through the devotions, but at the end of the 40 days, I was ready to go back to the beginning and start all over. This book allows the reader to bring their own prayer habits to the daily exercises and encourages additional scripture reading, reflection, and finding God’s goodness in art, music, and nature to create a full prayer experience. This is the perfect book for anyone who wants to pray boldly, without fear or anxiety, and believe expectations will be met by a God who knows our struggles and has already won the battle for us.
