4Prayer Foundations is a virtual encyclopedia on how to move beyond praying what most Christians know to pray, into praying the prayers of Jesus. It covers almost every conceivable aspect of hearing the Lord and interceding accordingly. There are chapters on intimacy with the Lord; lifestyle intercession; spiritual warfare through prayer; apostolic and prophetic anointings in intercession; how to pray for civil governments; guidelines for preemptive prayer; strategies for prayer journeys; and much more! Each principle is meticulously substantiated with biblical references. Vawter often uses personal stories as examples that are refreshingly candid and extraordinarily interesting. Prayer Foundations is powerful, prophetic, penetrating, and practical. It is not only a must-read for every follower of Christ but also a guide for ministers around the world who teach these subjects within the body of Christ. After 75 years of living as a devoted Christian, RaJean Thayer Vawter has finally written a book on prayer based on her study, research, and experience. Upon receiving her degree to teach secondary school, Vawter initially opted to be a full- time mother for her three sons and to volunteer in her church, school, and neighborhood. However, once the "nest" was empty, she went on to become a reporter, columnist, and writer. That is until prayer, intercession, evangelism, discipleship, and city-reaching became her focus and passion. Prayer Foundations is her third book. Her husband, Gary, also an author, is a proud and ardent supporter of her ministry. They have been married for more than 57 years and have ministered in more than 20 countries.
