    H.R. Chowdhry

    Hameeda has lived in the United Kingdom for many years but still remembers and honours the cuisine of India. She is a faithful and enthusiastic Christian who has long been a member of the United Benefice of St Paul’s and St Mary’s in Surrey and often arrives at church events and Bible Study groups with wonderful aromatic dishes. A gifted and experienced science teacher as well as an expert cook, Hameeda works hard to harmonise traditional Indian recipes with ingredients easily available over here and thinks carefully about what is most appropriate to the occasion and the friends, family or larger church groups to be fed. She has made lamb dishes and the unleavened bread for our Maundy Thursday celebration of the Last Supper, as well as samosas and pakoras for fellowship meals and parties. All she does is offered with love and prayer, a sense of tradition and an awareness of what is good and healthy for both body and soul! I have much pleasure in commending her book, ‘Healthy Indian recipes –Ultimate cooking guide’ and look forward to trying the recipes myself.

      Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.

      (Hebrews 4: 16)

      Foreword

      I have known H. R. Chowdhry for well over a decade and during that time we have frequently and regularly studied the Holy Bible and prayed together. I have grown to admire her devotion to the Lord Jesus Christ and her absolute trust in Him.

      Here is a book, Catalysts for Your Prayers, that gives you a simple and straightforward understanding of the Christian prayer. The book provides a collection of short and helpful prayers to enable you to pray in any situation in which you find yourself—whether to praise the Lord or to give Him thanks, to acknowledge His Lordship over your life, or to call upon Him in your needs. I pray that these simple yet inspirational prayers will lead you to higher level of trust and dependency on Him and will be a great blessing to you.

      Maureen Haffner

      Acknowledgement

      It is amazing how I have witnessed this book; Catalysts for Your Prayers take shape and form. I was encouraged to write about 100 prayers by my eldest son Samuel and to share them with others on the Internet. One day I sat and wrote about thirty prayers in one go, most of them were just flowing out, and I was jotting them on paper. As I took serious interest, the Holy Spirit led me one step further every time.

      I am neither a writer nor an expert on the subject of prayer, and I am still in the process of learning and studying God’s Word. I regularly gain knowledge from sound Bible teaching and keep myself engaged in the activity of prayer.

      However, the only qualification I consider to have in writing this book is that I am the recipient of God’s grace in Lord Jesus Christ. Unashamedly, I am a disciple of Lord Jesus Christ, and in His Spirit, the Lord Jesus Christ lives in me. Whilst writing this book, the power of the Holy Spirit was sufficiently available to me. Therefore, with all my heart I offer my praise and thanks to the King of power and glory.

      The Lord has always been good to me with the provision of prayer partners, but there are some who were extraordinarily faithful and dedicated to prayer. I am thankful to the Lord for Louise Frost (who is with the Lord now) and for Marcel, who joined me in the weekly intercessory prayers in my house in the 1980s. We were regularly blessed with the presence and power of God. Many prayers were answered, and though some prayers seemed to be unanswered, yet we learnt to pray persistently.

      I am thankful to the Lord for Hazel Heorder (who is with the Lord now), from whom I received genuine motherly love, care, and support in every way but especially with her prayers for myself and for my family. She was not only a good friend, but also a strong intercessor prayer partner for over twenty-five years; I learnt a lot about the Christian faith with her.

      But I thank the Lord that He replaced Hazel with Maureen Haffner, my present prayer partner. We come together to pray every week, and we are learning together how to be effective and faithful intercessors. I am thankful to her for all the encouragement and the support she has given me in the publication of this book on prayers.

      This book is dedicated to my grandfather, who converted to Christianity and left the inheritance of the Christian faith for his coming generations. I am thankful to the Lord for my parents who brought me and my sisters up in the Christian faith and disciplined us in reading God’s Word and in prayer. I have done the same for my sons, and so I also dedicate this to Samuel and Paul. I am thankful to them because they gave me all the possible support I needed to publish this book. My prayer is that they will grow day by day in their walk with the Lord and glorify the Lord Jesus Christ in everything that takes place in their lives. Amen.

      Introduction

      At very early age I realised the importance of prayer; ever since then I have been learning to pray. My prayer to Lord Jesus Christ was, is, and always will be to teach me to pray, and so I am a lifetime student of the Holy Spirit, though I know that in this life I will never be able to have the full knowledge of how to pray effectively. One way to learn is to take a bold and practical step to start asking the Holy Spirit to pray through you, for you, in you, and with you.

      ‘People ought to pray and not to lose heart’ is the teaching of our Lord Jesus Christ. So praying is obedience and pleasing to God, and therefore is it wise on our part to be engaged in this spiritual activity all the time.

      What is the aim of Catalysts for Your Prayers?

      The aim of the book is not to provide an in-depth study on the subject of prayer but to encourage and to support people to get engaged in prayer and to develop their prayer life. Engaging in this brings us closer to God and thus provides opportunities to discover our living God more deeply. Praying also enables us to get a fresh vision of God and to experience His presence and His power. The more we reflect on God’s glory and majesty, on His love and grace, on His might and power, the more adoration, worship, praise, and thanksgiving flow out through our prayer.

      I felt that it is important to have a basic understanding of prayer. Therefore, the book has provided a small chapter on the basics of prayer, which covers all the aspects of biblical Christian prayer.

      The importance of prayer is realised when you count all the spiritual benefits of a prayerful life. It is through this that we can keep our focus on God. A good prayer life establishes and maintains our relationship with God and with others. Our prayers give glory to God; they bless us, sanctify us to make us like Christ, and promote the growth of our faith too. But in the practical aspect of prayer, we all have said similar things like, ‘I am not good at putting how I feel into the prayers,’
