Divinely Inspired
Format: Paperback
Yet another divinely inspired book from Praying Medic!!! Dave has a unique writing style of choosing his words, not to impress, but to be very readable, engaging, and most informative. This book (and others that I have read of his) leave the reader feeling informed on the topics and with a profound sense that Dave truly cares about our awareness of and safety from the perils of the spiritual battles we face. My takeaways are several relevant insights to issues and demons my own family is encountering and solid suggestions for dealing with them head-on. For someone seeking a primer (short yet meaningful chapters) on the evils that exist all around us, I strongly recommend reading what Praying Medic has presented here.

Great gift and lovely way to weave God's presence into daily life
Love these prayers. I heard about the book from a podcast of Steve Cuss (or maybe Curtis Chang?). This book is a lovely and sometimes humorous way to weave God into the day. (My favorite-- a prayer for changing diapers! I sent this to my daughter in law).
