Prayer Changes Things: Prayer + Word of God = Power

By Beatrice Fearon

Prayer is an integral part of a faith-based life. But how does one pray? Prayer may seem like something everyone just know how to do, but it can be so much more meaningful than repeating basic orisons. Creating a more meaningful prayer life is the subject of author Beatrice Fearon's Prayer Changes Things: Prayer + the Word of God = Power.For man

Foreword

Prayer matters to God and through this meaningful writing we learn that "Prayer Changes Things." How you pray will determine how you live and how you live will manifest in the manner in which you pray. God has blessed us all to have direct communication with Him as an expression of our love, an act of worship and to make our requests known to Him. Whenever God blesses something, there is a real enemy who seeks to pervert or destroy it. Thanks to Minister Beatrice who has accepted the call and picked up the mantle to encourage us to fight for our lives, our families, communities, our country and world through and intentional and initiated prayer life.

Minister Beatrice is anointed to help you not only correct what is malfunctioning in your prayer life but also how to lay a firm foundation so that you can thrive in your relationship with God and others. Anything that is founded by God will function optimally when it is built upon the Word of God end mixed with faith. Minister Beatrice gives clear Biblical reference for every principle she expresses. She understands that beyond human wisdom and counsel is the unchanging, irrefutable, incorruptible, living Word of God. When a person gets the revelation on prayer through this incredible book, the realization of the power of prayer begins to manifest daily.

There are some who teach Biblical principles but do not live that truth themselves. Minister Beatrice has built her life, and that of her family through prayer, based off of the Word of God and is a living example that prayer according to the will of God can prosper and fulfill God’s purposes. She has written more than just a book, it’s a tool, with practicality and application.

Using powerful anecdotes, and compelling prose, Minister Beatrice presents a solid case for results through prayer. She also explains the level of commitment that each person must have because she understands prayer is the key, but faith unlocks the door. Through this tremendous written work, you will be given the practical steps to making the necessary adjustments in your life with the correct practice, purpose, and pursuit of God’s promises, protection, provision and peace can reign in your life.

As author of the book, Living to Win, an Xulon Press Award Winning book, I have dedicated a chapter towards prayer as the key in ingredient to winning. For 25 years, Lynnon and I have rescued many from discouragement to Jesus being the answer. It has been our chief joy seeing those released from destruction to victory and the taught principles of prayer to strengthen their lives. We stand behind everything we’ve taught on the power of prayer. We are always excited when we see men and women of God doing their part to help train and build others unselfishly. Their experience may cause them to have a different approach and revelation, but we applaud anyone who is trying to uplift God’s people. I am convinced through this book, even more, Prayer Changes Things!

Preface

I was sitting in a meeting one day and someone mentioned that many people remain quiet in prayer meetings because they either don’t like praying out loud in public or they just don’t know how to pray.

The next morning during my devotional time, I felt inspired by the Holy Spirit that I should write a book on prayer. Then I thought, there are so many books already written on prayer by well-known writers. In addition to writing, I had a vision of the book cover.

I began to write the introduction to the book as inspired by the Holy Spirit. Unfortunately for me I was in an automobile accident and it’s only by the grace and mercy of God that I am alive today. My car was totaled, and I walked away badly bruised up, but glory be to God for His angels encamping around me and protecting me for I am alive today. I am still here on earth to proclaim God’s grace and mercy. Hallelujah!!!

Some years ago, while I was recuperating from surgery, I received a prophecy that I would someday write a book. I began to write my first book but after six chapters, I became discouraged and I dismissed the entire idea.

After my car accident I realized that God spared my life because I have not completed my God-given assignment here on this earth. I have been on various missionary trips to many countries over the years sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I have coordinated and facilitated many revivals and crusades in various cities and have started many prayer groups and prayer seminars in different cities. I have volunteered weekly at various nursing homes for more than 30 years, yet God is saying to me that I have not yet completed my assignment. There is still more work for me to do in His kingdom.

This time, while recuperating from the accident, my daughter brought me to her home where she could be of assistance to me. I would have nothing to do but rest and get well. Praise the Lord! The days at her home with nothing to do were so quiet and peaceful that it gave me the inspiration and motivation I needed to write "Prayer Changes Things."

I trust that by the time you complete reading this book, you will have the necessary tools and discipline for this journey and that you will be inspired by the Holy Spirit of God to pray and be effective in your praying. "…The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much."¹
