Praying the Word of Grace
Praying the Word of Grace: The Revival of a Grieving Father's Soul Through the Simple Practice of Scripture-Based Prayer | Jonah Priour, Lovebuilt Press
9 posts | 4 read
★ Award-Winning Book ★
Does your heart long to be immersed in God and His amazing grace?
This book is filled to overflowing with the riches of God’s grace found in the pages of Scripture. For years, I have loved praying the Scripture, and have been absolutely captivated by the theme of grace that permeates it.
Then, when tragedy struck unexpectedly, these became my very lifeline.
In 2017, our firstborn son was born by emergency c-section in critical condition. In 2019, he passed away at 20 months old.
In the wake of this utter devastation, I felt absolutely empty and had no idea how to pray. At just the right time, Christ met me with an embrace of undeniable hope. Finding us in our darkness, God’s Word and His grace were the lights that lit our way home, and gave us life again.
In Part One of this book, you’ll hear:
★ Raw and honest personal stories from when I was rescued from despair by the Word of Life.
★ Exciting inspirations and revelations gathered from peering intently into God’s glorious grace.
★ Practical tools and insights that have helped me to deeply receive grace by faith, through Scripture and prayer.
In Part Two, you’ll find:
★ A full treasure chest of over 200 grace-filled scriptures, carefully gathered from 20 different translations.
★ 31 rich, in-depth prayers, crafted from the scriptures, filled with declarations, affirmations, and ecstatic responses to the truth of who God is and all He has freely given us in Christ and His finished work.
Above all, this book is intended to lead you into personally experiencing the God of grace for yourself in greater and greater ways. Encounter after encounter, grace upon grace.
May we find the amazing grace of God in the deep, the true and the real. Grace is the place where the brilliant and beautiful light of Heaven fills our lives, no matter how dark it may seem. Where we are transformed from the inside out. Where we are fully embraced by perfect love that reaches into our world, and we are loved to life and wholeness, right where we are … all because of who Love is.
Whether on top of the mountain or down in the middle of the mess, God and His grace are all around us. Freely given to us, overflowing to us, right at our fingertips. We only need to reach out our hands …
So, will you reach out and take the journey with me?
“From His fullness we have all received grace upon grace.” (John 1:16, BSB)

“I would even submit that true gratitude and true humility before God are found in fully receiving and enjoying the gifts He has so generously given to us in Christ.

However one defines grace, this much is clear. Grace comes as a free gift from God. And what do you do with a gift?

You open it. You enjoy it. This is our gratitude. This is the best thing to do with grace!”

“As I have let God into the dark spaces, He has come in and filled them with His healing light. In this, I have found God to be dependable, reliable, and trustworthy. I have found Him to be miraculous.

He clothed Himself with me … and then He clothed me with Himself.”

“It begins with us letting Him into the darkness. It completes with Him shining His light.

Somehow, it‘s both. Fully. The honesty of earth meets the truth of Heaven. The cross and the resurrection. This is the completion.

And I have found the order to be key: earth is the question. Heaven is the answer.”

quote

“This hope might have appeared to me like a cloud the size of a man‘s fist in a vast open sky, in the middle of the desert, in the middle of a drought …
But there was rain in that cloud.”

Being 70 years old now, I have experienced A LOT of loss in my life. Many losses I have not yet healed from . . . and this book really helped with the process of letting go and trusting that all will weave together. In time. Through grace. Through the gift of the precious Word.

Oh, how I needed this guidance of how to begin the process of healing my understanding through taking the scriptures deep into my heart, and also simply by asking.

This is a powerful and uplifting book for anyone who has suffered loss or trauma, and that is all of us in one way or another. The author tells his story with such vulnerability and candor that it opens unexplored places in the heart and soul. I found myself led to memories that needed the healing message of love and grace, experiencing them with new awareness.

The Table of Grace is always set. Jesus welcomes us to it, longing for us to join Him.
