Download or read book I am Blessed and There is not a Thing the Devil Can Do about it written by Lorna Carroll and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2017-12-14 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I wrote this book telling about all the great men and women of God and their struggles and learning experiences so people would realize that we all go through trials and learning experiences. But if we have God in our lives, we have someone to go through them with us. God uses everything to build character in us and make us great men and women of God too. If we have the Lord in our life, He is the one who fights for us and shows us the way out of our dilemmas. We need to stay close to Him and learn to hear His voice inside of us, and He will show us the way. At the appointed time, it will surely come to pass. A friend gave me a bookmarker one time that said, "It's hard to fly like an eagle when you are living with turkeys." I told her, "You have to learn to soar above them and allow God to solve the problems or show you what you are supposed to do. Don't get involved in a turkey fight when you are an eagle. Fly and soar on high with Him." When a mother eagle teaches her young to fly, she takes them out on her wings and drops them off and tells them to fly. But she soars right with them so she can fly under them and catch them on her wings if they don't make it the first time. She will know when they are ready to fly by themselves. That is the same way it is with God. He is there to catch us if we fall. I wrote this poem in my Bible years ago, and I don't even know where I read it. I added to it over the years as I learned how true it was. God says, "Come to the edge." But it is dangerous there! God says, "Come to the edge." But I might fall! God says, "Come to the edge." So I went to the edge, and He pushed me. I started to fall, and I cried for help, and God said, "Spread your wings!" I did, and I began to fly. We have to see the invisible, believe the impossible, and we will achieve the incredible. Just listen to God and wait on His timing! God's plans for us are greater than anything we could ever think or imagine. Isaiah 40:31 says, "Those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength. They shall mount up with wings like eagles. They shall run and not be weary. They shall walk and not faint." God called Abraham the father of faith. God told him that his descendants would be as the sand on the seashore. There were many descendants of Abraham over generations, but there are also spiritual descendants of Abraham. We are part of his family of faith when we accept Jesus Christ as our savior. God is our shield and exceeding great reward. The covenant has been handed down to us! All we have to do is believe it and receive it! We are blessed by God Almighty and Jesus Christ, His only begotten Son! It is up to us! The choice is ours. We are part of the family of God, and there is not a thing the devil can do to change that, unless you let him. God is able to see you through anything you will ever face if you will just invite Him in.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A compassionate, shame-free guide for your darkest days “A one-of-a-kind book . . . to read for yourself or give to a struggling friend or loved one without the fear that depression and suicidal thoughts will be minimized, medicalized or over-spiritualized.”—Kay Warren, cofounder of Saddleback Church What happens when loving Jesus doesn’t cure you of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts? You might be crushed by shame over your mental illness, only to be told by well-meaning Christians to “choose joy” and “pray more.” So you beg God to take away the pain, but nothing eases the ache inside. As darkness lingers and color drains from your world, you’re left wondering if God has abandoned you. You just want a way out. But there’s hope. In I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die, Sarah J. Robinson offers a healthy, practical, and shame-free guide for Christians struggling with mental illness. With unflinching honesty, Sarah shares her story of battling depression and fighting to stay alive despite toxic theology that made her afraid to seek help outside the church. Pairing her own story with scriptural insights, mental health research, and simple practices, Sarah helps you reconnect with the God who is present in our deepest anguish and discover that you are worth everything it takes to get better. Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.

Download or read book Blessed written by Kate Bowler and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2013-05-08 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How have millions of American Christians come to measure spiritual progress in terms of their financial status and physical well-being? How has the movement variously called Word of Faith, Health and Wealth, Name It and Claim It, or simply prosperity gospel come to dominate much of our contemporary religious landscape? Kate Bowler's Blessed is the first book to fully explore the origins, unifying themes, and major figures of a burgeoning movement that now claims millions of followers in America. Bowler traces the roots of the prosperity gospel: from the touring mesmerists, metaphysical sages, pentecostal healers, business oracles, and princely prophets of the early 20th century; through mid-century positive thinkers like Norman Vincent Peale and revivalists like Oral Roberts and Kenneth Hagin; to today's hugely successful prosperity preachers. Bowler focuses on such contemporary figures as Creflo Dollar, pastor of Atlanta's 30,000-member World Changers Church International; Joel Osteen, known as "the smiling preacher," with a weekly audience of seven million; T. D. Jakes, named by Time magazine one of America's most influential new religious leaders; Joyce Meyer, evangelist and women's empowerment guru; and many others. At almost any moment, day or night, the American public can tune in to these preachers-on TV, radio, podcasts, and in their megachurches-to hear the message that God desires to bless them with wealth and health. Bowler offers an interpretive framework for scholars and general readers alike to understand the diverse expressions of Christian abundance as a cohesive movement bound by shared understandings and common goals.

Download or read book In Jesus Name I Proclaim I m Blessed Not Black written by Will Traylor, ThD and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2008-09-30 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I remember when Doctor Willie Traylor and his wife, Peggy, came to Greater New Start Church in 2005. They arrived from a church across town, Houston, called Christian Tabernacle, pastored by Dr. Richard Heard. Dr. Traylor relayed to me that Jesus sent them to us. They said that the LORD said He was expanding the borders of their tent. I can defi nitely attest to the fact that the LORD has expanded their tent?s borders as well as Greater New Start?s borders. One thing that JESUS put on Dr. Traylor?s heart to do was edit our faith confession. Since we have joined in agreement in editing our confession, which we confess out loud each service, we all have and are still witnessing the manifestation of what we have been confessing in JESUS?S Name. This week we are moving into close to a half-million-dollar church property. Therefore, I feel this is a good place to share our faith confession with the rest of the world: Father, we thank you that we are givers of ourselves, time, and money. Because we are givers, YOU give and cause men to give to us?good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over. We are sowing our seed into good ground; therefore we believe YOU are helping us prosper SPIRITUALLY, PHYSICALLY, and FINANCIALLY. We thank you, FATHER, that you increase our anointing more and more (me, my family, and my church). Abundance in every area is your will for us, and we choose not to settle for less. WE DECLARE that we are bearing a hundredfold fruit, and others are seeing the manifestation of our faith. We are wealthy in every KINGDOM AREA, in JESUS? Name, amen. Just as the LORD has used Dr. Traylor and his wife at Greater New Start, I am sure He is also using him in this great anointed writing. I know that each one who receives this Great Man of God will truly be blessed. Bishop Joseph R. Handy Founder, Greater New Start Church Houston, Texas
