Many people read a chapter a day from the book of Proverbs as a regular devotional practice.

In these pages, readers will find a chapter from Proverbs followed by a heartfelt prayer that includes all of the insights from that chapter. In a mere thirty-one days they can pray all of the wisdom of Proverbs for their lives.

Here is my review of this wonderful prayer guide:

First of all, I would like to extend a heartfelt “Thank you” to John Mason and his publisher for sending me a copy of "Proverbs Prayers" to review for them. I am truly grateful for this generosity. I really appreciate the time, effort and expense it takes to make a reviewer copy available to me.

John Mason’s “Proverbs Prayers” is an incredible prayer pump primer. This simple book contains 31 chapters, one for each chapter of Proverbs. Each chapter contains the text of that chapter of Proverbs in the New American Standard Bible version and a corresponding prayer. I have read these prayers and spoken them aloud, and they have guided my own prayers to new places, adding a freshness and renewal to my prayer life. This book ends with a list of “Proverbs Principles”, which are key characteristics and how they relate to Christian character. This section includes Scripture verses and a brief commentary about the key words.

This book can be used beautifully every month as a devotional and prayer guide.

Homiletics Training: Content

Homiletics .   By definition, “homiletic” is the art of preaching or writing sermons.   I think we would all agree that our pastors study the Bible thoroughly to deliver sermons every Sunday to their congregations.   The beautiful news is that every child of God can use this discipline to study the Bible for themselves. As a member of Bible Study Fellowship (BSF) Leadership, part of my required preparation each week is to prepare homiletics for the passage we are studying.   BSF offers an engaging seminar on how to use this method to study the Scriptures.   I’ve taken the seminar several times under two different leaders and I’ve learned something new every time I’ve attended.   I’ve also been doing the process of homiletics for over ten years and I can say that there is no better teacher than the Holy Spirit in this process!   So keep practicing.   Keep sharing and discussing.   I’ve been posting my homiletics on this blog for quite a while, now.   And I would like to share wit
