Download or read book The Treasure Principle Revised and Updated written by Randy Alcorn and published by Multnomah. This book was released on 2012-04-11 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discover how the joy of giving can make your life richer, starting today. Bestselling author Randy Alcorn introduced readers to a revolution in material freedom and radical generosity with the release of the original The Treasure Principle in 2001. Now the revision to the compact, perennial bestseller includes a provocative new concluding chapter depicting God asking a believer questions about his stewardship over material resources. Jesus spent more time talking about money and possessions than about heaven and hell combined. But too often we’ve overlooked or misunderstood his most profound teaching on this topic, from his words in Matthew 6. Jesus offers us life-changing investment advice. He actually wants us to store up treasures for ourselves—just not here on earth. Instead, he urges us to store our treasure in heaven, where they will await us, and last forever. We can’t take it with us—but we can send it on ahead! Readers are moved from the realms of thoughtful Bible exposition into the highly personal arena of everyday life. Because when Jesus told His followers to “lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven,” He intended that they discover an astounding secret: how joyful giving brings God maximum glory and His children maximum pleasure. In The Treasure Principle, you’ll unearth a radical teaching of Jesus—a secret wrapped up in giving. Once you discover this secret, life will never look the same. And you won’t want it to be. “Supercharged with stunning, divine truth! Lightning struck over and over as I read it.” - John Piper, Senior Pastor, Bethlehem Baptist Church, Minneapolis

Download or read book Beyond the Smile written by Chris Scott and published by . This book was released on 2020-11-25 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a result of 12 amazing women who accepted the challenge and made a decision to allow the World to take a peek "Beyond the Smile" they wear so well. Several months ago, The Holy Spirit gave me the title of this book. I took time and wrote down ten titles to include "Beyond the Smile", but wanted to give the co-authors an opportunity to help select the right one. Although I knew what God had already spoken, I sent them all ten titles and ask that they each select the three top choices. God had spoken again as the top choice was "Beyond the Smile", after the second round of voting. Let's go a little deeper on the choice in naming the book. The women in this compilation of amazing stories tell their truths of smiling while hurting and wounded. I sometimes call it "serving while hemorrhaging." Many women can relate to living their daily lives while much is going on within, but yet they smile. There are many times that we endure betrayal, negativity, and fear, yet we still smile. Most of the times, those closest to us don't even know what is going on within the depths of our souls. These women of strong FAITH, who I affectionately call Queens, have emptied themselves onto paper and has discovered the therapeutic necessity of telling their truth to bless other women. The launching of this book was as though we each released a thousand doves. It is a symbolization of freedom and self-awakening. God created for us, a sister circle of support for one another that will live forever. We each found strength and confidence in prayer and the love that has been displayed birthed victory in abundance. Sit back, grab you warm throw blanket and a glass of your favorite drink as we go "Beyond the Smile" of my co-authors Ashley Brittney, Consuelo Allen, Detral Williams, Kenyatta Collins, LaQuanda Plantt, Mia Colemon, Michelle Hudson, Renata Triblett, Sharon P. Jones, Zen Watson, Tonya Clinton, and Ynwanda S. Market.

Download or read book Cleaning the DECEIVING HEART written by James Tarter and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2014-02-05 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biblically, the heart is the source of a person's behaviors, beliefs, thoughts, attitudes, desires, motives, and values. The heart is so important to who we are: our inner nature that is given a new body for our eternity in Jesus. God made the heart naturally stable by making it greatly fear getting changed. This is good, but also causes the heart to be very self-deceptive. If it needs to be cleaned, how can we proceed? This book shows the Biblical picture of the heart more fully, so that we can see ways for believers in Jesus to work with Him to clean our deceiving hearts for our eternity and for our close life-giving fellowship with God on earth. I gave two related books the same cover, so that readers can choose the best fit. Purifying the Heart puts solutions of heart-problems with their discussion: this complicates the picture of the heart. Destroying Spiritual Strongholds more fully explains this picture from the Bible, which is a harder introduction to this picture.

Download or read book Expositions of Holy Scripture Ezekiel Daniel and the Minor Prophets St Matthew Chapters I to VIII written by Alexander Maclaren and published by Publio Kiadó Kft.. This book was released on with total page 397 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Then said He unto me, Son of man, hast thou seen what the ancients of the house of Israel do in the dark, every man in the chambers of his imagery!'—EZEKIEL viii. 12. This is part of a vision which came to the prophet in his captivity. He is carried away in imagination from his home amongst the exiles in the East to the Temple of Jerusalem. There he sees in one dreadful series representations of all the forms of idolatry to which the handful that were left in the land were cleaving. There meets him on the threshold of the court 'the image of jealousy,' the generalised expression for the aggregate of idolatries which had stirred the anger of the divine husband of the nation. Then he sees within the Temple three groups representing the idolatries of three different lands. First, those with whom my text is concerned, who, in some underground room, vaulted and windowless, were bowing down before painted animal forms upon the walls. Probably they were the representatives of Egyptian worship, for the description of their temple might have been taken out of any book of travels in Egypt in the present day. It is only an ideal picture that is represented to Ezekiel, and not a real fact. It is not at all probable that all these various forms of idolatry were found at any time within the Temple itself. And the whole cast of the vision suggests that it is an ideal picture, and not reality, with which we have to do. Hence the number of these idolaters was seventy—the successors of the seventy whom Moses led up to Sinai to see the God of Israel! And now here they are grovelling before brute forms painted on the walls in a hole in the dark. Their leader bears a name which might have startled them in their apostasy, and choked their prayers in their throats, for Jaazan-iah means 'the Lord hears.' Each man has a censer in his hand—self-consecrated priests of self-chosen deities. Shrouded in obscurity, they pleased themselves with the ancient lie, 'The Lord sees not; He hath forsaken the earth.' And then, into that Sanhedrim of apostates there comes, all unknown to them, the light of God's presence; and the eye of the prophet marks their evil.
