FOREWORD
My beloved pastor has finally completed a very dynamic, instructive, revealing, and inspirational book on the Prayers that Secure Heavenly Answers. As I traverse through the pages of this book, many secrets and guidance are unfolded and if one takes great actions, unanswered prayer will be a thing of the past. It is true, there are many books on prayer, but believe me, there is none that addresses the fundamental mishaps in unanswered prayer as this.
I have read many of them, and they all have something good you can glean from them, but as the author puts it, This book is compiled with the inspiration of the Holy Spirit with both theory and radical experiential knowledge.
I was personally so blessed, salivating through the pages and even taking notes for practical application. Over forty years as a Christian, prayer as I see it is the oxygen for living a dynamic Christian life. We live to learn from each other, and my pastor as always has given us a very insightful prayer manual that will secure heavenly answers if we apply the principles laid out on the pages of this great work.
Take time to prayerfully read through this great masterpiece that Pastor Affiah has finally put to birth. I have encouraged him through the gestation period and celebrate with him for a work well done. It was well worth the wait and the grace and anointing of the Lord Jesus was upon him through the process. I can feel and see it through the volume of contents it carries.
You have got to read this book if you desire a result-oriented prayer life. I highly recommend this book not just to read it, but to have it as a guide through your prayer journey experience. Study it, and apply the practical, well-laid methods for a transforming prayer-answered experience.

In addition, I would like to acknowledge my indebtedness and appreciation to many who have helped to make this book a reality: Elder Chris Eze, Elder James Sibenge, and Mother Verital Robert the dedicated group of men and women in Faith in Christ Church Worldwide (FICCW), who fervently prayed ceaselessly for divine wisdom while compiling this book.
I also want to express my gratitude to sister Ngozi Eze for not only being supportive of the project but being steadfast and immovable from its inception.

Amen.
Additionally, I deliver these materials to you with prayers, that the purpose for which God empowered me to compile the book together for the body of Christ will fully be achieved for those who spend time studying it. He will use the revelations that are on every page of this book and the potency of His word to speak healings and deliverances to the downtrodden in Jesus name. Amen.
INTRODUCTION
There are many books written on prayer from a theoretical perspective without any experiential knowledge backing it. This book is compiled with the inspiration of the Holy Spirit with both theory and practical experiential knowledge. Experiential knowledge is required as a strong basis for walking and collaborating with God. We are commanded to run the race with patience and in patience possess our souls. Without patiently learning at the foot of Christ in word and prayer one cannot go far in the race. The Bible encourages us to,
"Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not." (Jer. 33:3 KJV).
That is the benefit of seeking the face of the Lord in prayer. The inspiring promise here is that He will show you great and mighty things you have never known before. That should be a great motivating factor to pray or diligently seek Him.
For example, in my few years of ministry, I have seen the Lord do miraculous things such as blind eyes popping open, fibroids melting away, kidney stones flushed out, sickle cell anemia blood type turning to AA, and bone cancer healed, as well as broken marriages restored through the power of prayers.
This book The Prayers That Secure Heavenly Answers is based on scriptural godly wisdom, inspired by the Holy Spirit, and borne out of practical and firsthand experiences. I want to assure you that the paradigm used in this book, if applied very well, will revolutionize, energize, and change your mind-set on prayer. You will surely experience how quickly God answers prayers. I am excited and bubbling in my spirit to present to you this mystery which none of ..the princes of this world,..
knew. (I Cor. 2:6 KJV)
Except you gain access to biblical insights, your prayer life will remain stagnant. This wisdom is from above and glory be to God that it has been revealed to us. The Lord, Jesus made it explicitly clear in Mark 4:11 KJV that "..Unto you it is given to know the mystery of
