Author Germaine Griffin Copeland

Germaine Griffin Copeland is the founder and president of Word Ministries, Inc. located in Monroe, Georgia (previously based in Historic Roswell, Georgia). Word Ministries, a teaching and prayer ministry that offers practical prayer instruction, personal prayer support and life-transforming guidance to other believers worldwide. Germaine's teaching leads others into an intimate relationship with the Father-God as they learn to pray the powerful and effective Scriptural prayers that brought her to a place of victory in Christ Jesus.

Germaine's training began in 1968, after her unique encounter with God. At that time, she was searching diligently for truth and battling depression. She had decided that she was a mistake and was tormented by suicidal thoughts. Out of the depths of her despair, she called upon the name of the Lord and the Light of God's presence illuminated the room where she was sitting.

It was in that moment that she experienced the warmth of God's love and she felt brand new. She discovered a motivation for living - life had purpose. As she became more intimately acquainted with Jesus, she discovered her true personality, and her destiny unfolded. Living in the presence of God she has found love and acceptance, healing for crippled emotions, contentment that overcomes depression, peace in the midst of adverse circumstances, and grace for developing healthy relationships.

To date, over 4 million copies of the Prayers That Avail Much� book series have been sold, and are changing the way Christians pray. She believes that you can learn to pray confidently for things that concern you, your family, and other prayer assignments. Through her fellowship and communion with the Holy Spirit, she has become a woman of prayer and praise whose highest form of worship is the study of God's Word.

Today her manuscripts include books of personal encounters with God, and newspaper and magazine articles to help others grow spiritually and emotionally. Germaine's writings illustrate how to effectively pray for a loved one who is lost or hurting, how to know the difference between praying soulish and spiritual prayers, and how to pray in perfect agreement with God's will. Her book, The Road God Walks, includes a portion of her testimony and has helped many who suffer from depression. A devotional, Prayers That Avail Much� for Daily Living, is filled with stories, brief studies and personal experiences. A Call to Prayer has been written to help churches and ministry groups develop effective intercessory prayer groups.

In the 1980's Germaine filled the position as Associate Pastor of Word of Life Church in Smyrna, Georgia, before serving as Senior Pastor for 5� years. She travels nationally and internationally conducting prayer schools, speaking at churches, conferences, and other groups. She, also, organizes prayer teams to pray for other countries on location. Her commitment to serve God and to study His Word continues to expand the vision of her ministry. She helps others discover how to grow in grace and knowledge and live with new power, strength and victory as God promises.

I am applauding the Work Germaine has done for the Lord. I am thankful for those faithful ones that have gone before us to help direct us down the righteous path.

I had purchased her book "Prayers that Avail Much for Mothers" in 2000. While moving it was packed in a box which I did not open till 2007. The prayers focus on many verses of scripture, generating one strong prayer. Speaking the Word is powerful when you speak the Spirit filled Words given by GOD in His Word. They literally become active and become a Miracle.

I would like to say to Germaine, may GOD Bless You for being a faithful servant.
