Download or read book O Highly Favoured written by J A Russell and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2014-11-06 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the Virgin Mary, God revealed His power in a way we cannot rationalise but in faith believe. God took flesh in the way that spoke of His patience down through the ages and in The Immaculate Conception revealed His choice, reminding us that through her Son we too are called and chosen. God not only presents the holy Virgin as a model of discipleship, but reveals ever more of Himself through her. This book traces some of the steps taken by the Mother of God and how, in a world all busy and rushed, she reminds us that we too are called to listen to God, to consider His ways and take time to receive His grace. Mary had a will as if bended to God, waiting in an attitude of loving obedience; Gods will shines forth in her, showing that indeed He is our Father to Whom all things are possible.
Download or read book Highly Favoured written by Stuart J Foster and published by Oasis International. This book was released on 2019-10 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We all long for healthy and successful families and relationships, but this dream often seems out of our reach. We may look to spiritual powers such as diviners, prayer, or church to help us meet our basic needs - from income to health to relationships. Highly Favoured encourages us that the God of the Bible is not unreliable or inaccessible like the spiritual beings in African traditional religions. In the Bible, the all-powerful God deeply desires a relationship with his people. He chooses to have a covenant relationship with his people. We do not have to earn God's favour. He lays out the terms for blessing and punishment, and he is completely faithful to abide by them. No matter what happens, God's commitment to his people is unshakeable. If we choose a relationship with God, it is both secure and demanding - and much better than we dared to imagine. We are within his mighty protection and he gives us the power of his Spirit, but we can turn to no other powers besides him. "You will be my people and I will be your God." This is God's promise throughout the Bible. This book leads you to discover what this deep truth means for your life, using African proverbs, relatable stories, and familiar illustrations to bring the message home. You will finish this book with a shining confidence in God's unfailing love for you, a reassurance of his amazing favour, and a fresh passion for his Word. Are you struggling with the question of belonging? Do you feel unsatisfied with life? Let this small book show you the big story that God is writing for you. -- Dr Frew Tamrat, Vice-Principal, Evangelical Theological College, Ethiopia

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Child of God, you are going to love this book! You’ll find yourself nodding, underlining, and shouting ‘Amen!’ all the way through. How to Be Blessed and Highly Favored is full of God’s unchanging truth and Michelle’s real-world wisdom, wrapped around the story of one of the ‘good girls’ of the Bible: Mary, the mother of Jesus. Trust me…you will be blessed!” –Liz Curtis Higgs, best-selling author of Bad Girls of the Bible Prepare to crawl into God’s lap and experience His highest blessings as your own. A popular phrase often heard after inquiring about someone’s welfare is the enthusiastic response, “Blessed and highly favored!” Yet many of us–even those who use this expression readily–don’t really lead a lifestyle that reflects God’s blessings. It’s not that such blessings aren’t ours to receive; the Bible clearly teaches that it is the Father’ s perfect will to give us the kingdom. The problem is that we don’t know how to fully access His generous gifts. What does God require of those He chooses to use and bless? Join Michelle McKinney Hammond as she takes a fresh, spirited look at Mary, the mother of Jesus, and shows us how to: • appeal to God’s heart • remain sensitive to His voice • believe Him for the impossible • submit to and rest in His plan • live before Him with a servant’s heart Get Ready to Receive God’s Extra-Dimensional Blessings!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Make the Connection. The change you long for is just 18 inches away! Have you ever declared in frustration that your head knows what to do but your heart won't agree? The truth is, although the head and heart are only eighteen inches from each other, most of us spend our entire lives trying to make a genuine connection between what we profess to believe in our heads and what we actually believe in our hearts. We believe that God loves us, but our hearts still cling to lies from our past—lies from society, our families and friends, and the enemy of our souls. Don't allow these voices to keep you trapped any longer. “From Your Head to Your Heart” exposes how your negative thought patterns can keep you from the future God wants for you and reveals the secrets to achieve the long-term transformation desired by many, yet missed by most. With powerful examples from the Bible and redeeming stories from the author's own testimony involving abandonment, loneliness, rejection, and drug use, this book will give you the keys to access the power in God's Word. Begin the renewing journey from your head to your heart today.Forward written by Jim Cymbala with Endorsements from Bill Hybels, Chris Hodges, Nancy Alcorn and many more.“The heart and soul of the Christian life is learning to hear God's voice and then developing the courage to do what he asks us to do. “From Your Head to Your Heart” must be added to your life and library.

Download or read book Woman You Are Highly Favoured by God written by Esther S. Ripiye and published by Author House. This book was released on 2012-08-08 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Religious belief has over the years had a great influence on the status and history of women especially in the ministry. From the earliest days of the New Testament Church and up till present, most Christians have misinterpreted the scriptures on the basis of 1 Timothy 2:11-12 which says Let a woman learn in silence with all submissiveness. I permit no woman to teach or to have authority over men; she is to keep silent. This passage has been used by many churches to place certain restrictions on the ministry of women. This has given rise to many debates in the church and restricted many women from fulfilling their leadership call. It is therefore important to dispel the myths about the role of women and open our eyes to what the Bible really says concerning this. This is not about having dominance but every Christian needs to flow in the Holy Spirit to enable their gifts and calling to bring the kingdom of God to earth. This book contains the study of Seventy Two Women of the Bible. It gives us the details of their lives, roles, character, and influence. It also shows how God used them in the past and still uses us as women to advance His kingdom on earth. The knowledge of the scripture is imperative. The book also shows how to build confidence in the word of God, releasing ourselves for the Holy Spirit to flow through us so that the knowledge of the scriptures can operate in our purpose, gifts, talents and calling in Christ. The authors writing is well documented, based on revelation of the word, her leadership role over the years and from her studies of the role of women in the bible that have span for over 3 decades. The book brings honest and scriptural truth on crucial questions regarding to leadership and teaching role of women in the church. It shows how Jesus related and affirms the role of women in the kingdom. This book is highly recommended for all Christians who are passionate about the true teachings of the scriptures and the roles God expects men and women to play in unity for the advancement of the kingdom.

Download or read book Why We re Catholic written by Trent Horn and published by Catholic Answers Press. This book was released on 2017-05 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "How can you believe all this stuff? This is the number-one question Catholics get asked and, sometimes, we ask ourselves. Why do we believe that God exists, that he became a man and came to save us, that what looks like a wafer of bread is actually his body? Why do we believe that he inspired a holy book and founded an infallible Church to teach us the one true way to live? Ever since he became Catholic, Trent Horn has spent a lot of time answering these questions, trying to explain to friends, family, and total strangers the reasons for his Catholic faith. Some didn't believe in God, or even in the existence of truth. Others said they were spiritual but didn't think you needed religion to be happy. Some were Christians who thought Catholic doctrines over-complicated the pure gospel. And some were fellow Catholics who had a hard time understanding everything they professed to believe on Sunday. Why We're Catholic assembles the clearest, friendliest, most helpful answers that Trent learned to give to all these people and more. Beginning with how we can know reality and ending with our hope of eternal life, it s the perfect way to help skeptics and seekers (or Catholics who want to firm up their faith) understand the evidence that bolsters our belief and brings us joy" --
