PRAYING FOR MIRACLES is a non-fiction book about Bible study, faith, prayer and miracles. The author, Newton Walkin, surveys the miracles of the Bible and shows how relevant these are in assisting Christians today when praying for miracles. The book has three parts: (1) deals with the person and work of the Holy Spirit and the veracity of the Bible; (2) examines the principles of intercessory prayer; and (3) looks at prayers and miracles in action. The Appendix II helps those studying the Bible from cover to cover more than once. The book is useful for the general Christian reader, lay preachers, Sunday school teachers, prayer groups, intercessors and first year Bible Studies students at university, seminary and Bible College. The book has 550 pages and 27 chapters.Walkin comes from a Christian home. He is a member of West Croydon Baptist Church (WCBC), Croydon, England founded by James Spurgeon in 1869. The views in this book are entirely those of the author and do not represent any church, organisation or ministry. From July 1999 to December 2006, Walkin achieved, by God's generous grace, his vision to read the Bible from cover to cover 21 times, shown in Appendix II.Walkin believes in the awesome power of intercessory prayer of faith.
