Breakthrough Prayer: The Power of Connecting with the Heart of God
From the Book Meet three who discovered the power of “breakthrough prayer.” “My husband and I had a dream of helping desperate young women. But no banker in his right mind would finance such a venture. So we prayed and God broke through every single obstacle we faced. That was just the beginning of the wonderful roller-coaster ride we call ‘faith.’” —Grace (chapter 7) “Voices inside my head were constantly screaming at me. I became like an animal in the street, muttering or yelling out a stream of profanity as people passed by. One day I screamed out, Jesus, help me! O God, you’re my only hope! That was the breakthrough prayer that saved my life.” —Danny (chapter 2) “Talk about breakthrough prayer! I was buried under 110 stories of steel and concrete after the collapse of the World Trade Center Towers when God heard my cry for help.” —Genelle (chapter 3)

AWESOME - Life Changing
Prayer, I've come to believe, is the key element is following through with the foundation of life which Matthew 6:33, Seek God First above all things. Prayer will always lead you to the throne of the Almighty, the throne of the universe. Through the Holy Spirit to Jesus our Savior and High Preist to God the Father, Jehovah. It will lead you to His Word and to life. Ask and ye SHALL recieve (Matt. 7:7). Prayer is key. As I begin to not just know this but live it every day I begin to have a hunger to know how to pray and more about prayer. This book, Breakthrough Prayer along with PAPA Prayer and The Kneeling Christian were defineing books for my life and others that I've since given a copy of it to. You will not regret reading this book. You will find answers here to some of your deepest questions and pointers to where you need to go and how to pray with waiting faith. This book will change your life. Me and my brother went to Brooklyn Tabernacle when I visited him in NYC because we both had read Fresh Faith and Fresh Wind... and we both said the minute we walked through the door we could feel something was different, the presence of the Holy Spirit. Dr. Henry Cloud said it best, a good Bible church mixes the right amount of Grace, Truth and Time. This is one of the rare churches in my life as a missionary kid that I've seen such an example of this. I beg everyone who truly seeks a life of meaning to read this book. It will inspire you. I also highly recommend all of his books as they've all touched my life in some way. I just got through listening to A Life God Blesses back in January after reading this book and it is awesome as well. May God richly bless you as you Seek ye shall find.

Three good stories about the power of praying and receiving a breakthrough. Stories quite different but good examples with heartfelt personal commentary. Cymbala gives you a starting point for achieving the breakthrough you so desperately want but then the rest is up to you and how much and how long and how hard you want to pray. You can walk away and be satisfied you have read a "feel good " book or you can go deeper and understand the connection to pray and breakthroughs.
Getting to the Heart of Prayer
If you are looking for a meaningful prayer life, this book leads you into that deeper walk of faith that prayer can bring you to. Jim Cymbala expresses how important true humility is and how important it is to our relationship to Christ through prayer. This book gives Biblical guidance to what the heart of prayer should be like and how we can live in the power of Christ through the Holy Spirit.I highly recommend it to anyone whose Christian walk has become stale and if you are looking for deeper meaning in living the Christian life. It is also a good refresher for those who currently have an active, meaningful time of prayer each day with Christ.
How To Obtain Real Breakthrough ?
I am still searching for how to make breakthrough prayer? This book does not reveal what strategy to achieve that. I am doing research on Continue Focus Of Intensive Prayer (CFOIP). There is an article what Pastor David Yonggi Cho teaches on "No Easy Way To Pray" on miracles4you.com. I have been waiting for over 10 years of certain breakthroughs. If I have several breakthroughs by CFOIP, I might write a book on this subject.
Wonderful Book on Breakthrough Prayer
This book will stretch your faith to believe God for the unimaginable.Prayer is the key to your breakthrough. Pastor Cymbala shares stories and stories of God answering the prayers of His people.
Recommended by my Pastor, not a quick read.
Jim Cymbala is clearly one of the most balanced pastor's and bible teachers on the fore front today. He is not into gimmicks or soft teaching that is very prevalent today. He clearly teaches love, grace and mercy, along with the fact that God is serious about His righteousness. He does not seduce with a soft gospel. This book was recommended by my pastor and I would highly recommend it to anyone who is searching for a change in their heart and life.
Inspiration for Spiritual Growth
This book reminds us of how important a prayer group is. Every church should have such a group! We tend to think that the most important part of our spiritual growth is reading the bible and hearing good sermons. Granted these are important but prayer that is employed with God's will and His word are number one of importance. Jim Cymbala's book inspired me to realize this.
ANYTHING WRITTEN BY JIM CYMBALA IS GREAT!!
Anything written by Jim Cymbala is GREAT!!! What a Godly, humble man!

This is one of the best books on prayer I have ever read. Jim Cymbala’s scripture references and personal testimony of how “breakthrough prayer” has transformed many lives is truly inspiring. I want to share this book with so many people and I want to read it over and over.

We need to better understand prayer. This book is a tremendously inspiring read and a great guide on how to pray and letting the Holy Spirit guide you imparting. I will read this book again!
