5 Heart Positions of Prayer highlights five ways we can approach God not because we are good but because He is good:Worship - We adore God in prayer because God is holy (wholly separate and preeminent).Wait - We quiet our hearts to experience and enjoy our God, because His love for us is extravagant.Bless - We ask God to extend favor to others because He is kind and generous and wants to bless them.Intercede - We partner with God on behalf of others because God the Father is also the merciful and gracious Judge, available to hear our case.Stand - We resist the enemy and persist in prayer because God is strong and He is faithful to defend His children.Has interest in prayer ever been greater?

She wanted to create a prayer manual that would capture insights gained from decades of pooled experience in learning to hear God's voice through prayer. That's why she has chosen prayer partners and collaborators who are specialists in five positions, or modes, of prayer to help her explain and apply what they've learned.
