Download or read book Set Free and Delivered written by Sophia Ruffin and published by Charisma Media. This book was released on 2018 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Too often Christians say the sinner's prayer, only to fall back into the sin from which they were saved. Others fear the same fate as they struggle to resist old temptations and habits. We blame God, as though He didn't save us completely. When doubts come to the surface, we feel it's impossible to stay a faithful Christian. The truth is, the spiritual warfare you experience is not because you are not free. You're attacked because you are free. You are now a threat to the darkness, so the opposition increases. The enemy knows you are instrumental in spreading the gospel and in advancing God's kingdom. It is possible to stay in the light and never go back into the darkness. As the Bible says in John 8:36, "If the Son sets you free, you shall be free indeed" (MEV). Sophia Ruffin uses her personal experience of overcoming homosexuality, rage, bitterness, and so much more to bring you the tools and strategies to maintain your deliverance. Put on the armor of the Lord, and develop a proactive strategy to overthrow the enemy's agenda. Set Free and Delivered features prayers, confessions, and Ruffin's inspiring testimony to prepare you for the battles that come after giving your life to God.

Hence, in the first part, we will speak first of the necessity and power of prayer; and next, of the conditions necessary to make it efficacious with God.

"Living compassionately is rarely convenient and often downright challenging," writes Joyce Rupp, bestselling and award-winning author and retreat leader. The definitive Christian guide to compassion, Boundless Compassion is the culmination of Rupp's research and work as codirector of the Servite Center of Compassionate Presence. Through this six-week personal transformation process for developing and deepening compassion, Rupp nudges, encourages, and inspires you to grow in the kind of love that motivated Jesus’ life and mission for his disciples. With master teacher Joyce Rupp, you will learn to develop compassion as never before. You will discover compassion from science, medicine, theology, spirituality, sociology, and psychology. You will be encouraged to explore personal and professional expressions of compassion, and to re-energize your ability to offer loving kindness to those around you. Rupp has felt the call to walk with others in their suffering since she was a young member of the Servants of Mary, whose charism is compassion. She eventually cofounded the Boundless Compassion program with Sr. Margaret Stratman, O.S.M. Based on the format and theme of Rupp’s bestselling books like Open the Door and her popular workshops conducted by the Center of Compassionate Presence, Boundless Compassion has the power to transform your life, giving you wisdom, confidence, understanding, and inspiration to be a more caring presence. It will help you build on relational skills, learn self-care, gain wisdom for incorporating loss and suffering into your active life, and find ways to show compassion at work. By the book's end, you will feel prepared to live with a renewed commitment to a compassionate presence for yourself and those who are in the midst of pain, struggle, and transition.

Download or read book Prayer Is Not an Option It S a Command written by Sophia L. Garcia and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2018-06-22 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever wondered why churches today only remind us about how the miracle of God manifested itself in the churches of yesteryear? Lets be honest: some churches do not experience the power of God because they do not practice regular prayer meetings. We cannot continue to have church as usual and languish in prayerlessnessGod is waiting to hear your voice. Prayer Is Not an Option, Its a Command can help you maintain a prayer life with our heavenly Father. Author and minister Sophia L. Garcia urges believers to understand that prayer is an essential element of Christianity, and as an act of worship it plays a vital role in the church. By understanding this role and by learning the spiritual and practical steps to maintaining a successful prayer life, you can make the personal choice to engage in prayer. Having a prayer life is not something that just happens; you have to stay focused and make time to pray. When you dont pray, you are saying to Yeshua, I can handle my business today. If I need your assistance, then I will pray. But not praying will cripple your relationship with Jesus Christ and cause you to be independent of him instead of depending on Him. Fellowship with the creator of the universe is only a prayer awayand all you need is a sincere heart and an open spirit.
