What People are Saying About This

From the Publisher

When I was serving The Moody Church in Chicago, I met regularly for prayer with my friend Mark Bubeck, and I can assure you that he knows the ins and outs of the prayer life. If warfare prayer is new to you, this book will both instruct you and motivate you to move into the “victory army.” If you have been a dedicated “prayer warrior” for years, this book will still enlighten you and encourage you. This new edition of a masterful study is just what the church needs today. - Warren W. Wiersbe, Author, pastor, Bible teacher, and conference speaker

When I think of a prayer warrior the first name that comes to mind is Mark Bubeck. He has modeled everything taught in this book and been a source of encouragement and guidance to thousands throughout his ministry. I am honored to have worked with him and learned from him for over a decade and know you will be helped in practical and life-giving ways by the material in this book. - Marcus Warner, President, Deeper Walk International, and coauthor of Rare Leadership

Reading this book will transform your prayer life and affect every area of your life. Don’t read it if you don’t want to change and want to drift along with your lesser pattern of praying. Do read it if you want to make a significant quality difference in your life, your church life, and in your society for the gospel of Christ and the glory of God. - C. Fred Dickason, Professor Emeritus, Moody Bible Institute

Having read many books regarding our Adversary, I have often been disappointed. They often seemed a bit unbalanced and overly focused on seeing a demon behind every problem. Mark’s book is different. It is extremely balanced, very practical, and delightfully authentic. Illustrations from his own experience in the battle with the enemy permeate the whole book. Most important to me is the thoughtful and accurate weaving together of a large number of biblical passages that are often neglected. Mark has put me on alert and given me new insight on how to pray against the enemy of our souls. - Joseph Dillow, Founder of Biblical Education by Extension World (BEE), and author of The Reign of the Servant Kings and Final Destiny

Through this book written years ago, and now refreshed, are reflections straight from the old warrior’s heart. Every Christian needs to read this book! - Linda Dillow, Author of Calm My Anxious Heart, and coauthor of Surprised by the Healer and Passion Pursuit

This is a book that should be read by every thoughtful Christian. Mark Bubeck not only exposes the work and strategy of our enemy Satan, but also teaches us how we can overcome him by participating in the victory Jesus Christ wrought on our behalf. This book will build your faith. It will give you the insight and confidence you need to confront our defeated foe. Yes, we are in a war, but we have resources to fight from the standpoint of victory. Read this book carefully, read it often, and share what you have learned with a friend. - Erwin W. Lutzer, Pastor Emeritus, The Moody Church
