Praying through the Names of God By Tony Evans Publisher: Harvest House Publishers Praying through the Names of God is a comprehensive list and description of the names of God in the Scriptures. For each of the 85 different names, there is a description, revelation as to the intent and meaning of the name, and a relevant prayer that could be used. Rather than a deep theological book on the names of God, it is a prayer book for the different situations and circumstances of people’s lives. An excellent book for people looking at using the name of God in prayer. |
