Prayer is one of the most familiar practices in Christianity, yet it is often one of the least understood. Many believers know how to ask God for things, but the New Testament calls us to something deeper—a life of prayer shaped by God's will, God's kingdom, God's Word, and God's purposes. This volume begins at this essential starting point: understanding what New Testament prayer truly is and why it matters.
This volume invites the reader to move beyond prayer that is driven only by personal needs, emotions, or circumstances. Through the teaching and examples found in the New Testament, it explores prayer as fellowship with God, dependence upon His grace, submission to His will, thanksgiving for His goodness, and intercession for others. Prayer is not presented merely as a way of obtaining answers, but as one of the ways God shapes the heart of the person who seeks Him.
The apostolic Church understood prayer as a spiritual priority. The believers in Acts devoted themselves to prayer, the apostles prayed for spiritual growth and understanding, and Jesus taught His disciples to place God's name, kingdom, and will at the center of their petitions. This volume therefore challenges the reader to examine the foundations of personal prayer and to ask an important question: Are my prayers being shaped by what I want from God, or by what God desires to accomplish through me?
The Apostolic School of Prayer is an invitation to return to those foundations. It is for the believer who wants to pray with greater biblical understanding, deeper sincerity, stronger faith, and a clearer awareness of God's purposes. Before learning how to pray more, we must learn how to pray rightly. Before seeking greater answers, we must learn to seek God Himself.
