Publisher's summary

Embrace the Lord's pattern for prayer. God longs for us to spend time with Him. Yet while His invitation is extravagant, too often we struggle to spend even brief moments with our Heavenly Father. For some, action has replaced prayer. For others, requests can take priority over relationship, as we try to mold God to our desires. How did the simple act of prayer become so complicated? Renowned pastor and author John MacArthur invites you to experience the art of prayer. Here John turns to our greatest spiritual mentor, Jesus Christ, as he takes an intimate, in-depth look at the Lord’s Prayer. Filled with fresh insights and practical tools for growth, Alone with God will help you rediscover the power and passion found in time spent with God. Alone with God includes a guide for both personal and group study, which features discovery questions, suggestions for prayer, and activities, all designed to connect life-changing truths with everyday living.

A Must Understand

I thank God for gifts He has given Pastor John MacArthur. This book really helps point to scriptures that provide us light on how to pray.

Deeply encouraging and convicting

I am so encouraged to approach the Lord with boldness and humility in my prayer, but am also deeply convicted to be praying in ways that honour Him. I encourage you to listen to this book, and pray that the Lord would use it to draw you nearer to Him as He has done with me.

Poor narration

Find a better narrator there are hundreds or perhaps have author narrate himself. Really bad.

My Prayer Life is Renewed

I purchased this book to get a new perspective on my prayer life. I'd been feeling like I my prayers were becoming redundant and lacked passion. They were losing their authenticity. From the get go, this book helped me break down my prayers and showed me very clearly why my passion was fleeting.

I realized very quickly that although I pray several times a day, I've never prayed for Christ to return quickly. I also was not praying for leaders in my church, community, and country. Such as "Lord, let your Will be fulfilled in these chosen leaders". In short, I needed to pray more for what God wanted. My prayers weren't selfish. They centered mostly on others, but my prayer scope was very small and wasn't furthering the Kingdom.

The author broke prayer down into categories based on the "Lord's Prayer" and I was able to quickly identify what was missing from my prayers. More importantly, I was able to apply the lessons I learned. My prayer life is now more passionate and God centered. I'm getting ready to listen to it again.

no surprise for John Macarthur.

the information in this book I believe is in accord with what the Bible teaches is about prayer. This will hopefully bring us and anyone who reads or listens to it that much closer to having a better relationship with our heavenly Father.
