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 Birthing Forth the Treasures of the Father s Heart written by Terika Green and published by . This book was released on 2020-01-19 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Crystals are the vital missing link to the full armor of God. Crystals are the Father's gift healing, health, energy, wholeness, fruitfulness, grace, and protection. Jesus is restoring his name as the Rock and why he is "the Rock." The Lord wants to restore the truth about crystals and their original intent to bring forth healing, physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. There are so many truths and hidden treasure in the Word of God that people have overlooked in the Church, because they have not read the word for themselves, or just innocently forgot some of the things written in the bible, and just have been told stay away from crystals because it is witchcraft. Crystals are the vital missing link to the armor of God. We must remember that whenever Jesus or the Father compares themselves to something, it is better to research it. Do not just stay at the mindset that they are higher than these things. Recognize they are saying even what they do, or their benefits cannot compare unto them. There is much treasure to be revealed and hidden truths in the bible. The Lord gave me and my husband a prophecy that he was going to call us out of the Church to birth something new if we would let him, little did I know he was going to download to me the hidden treasures about crystals hidden in the bible and the revelation on how they fight for us and keeps us protected. Over the years, I kept asking the Lord, "Something is missing, why aren't my gifts flowing as they should, why are people getting delivered and then having to get delivered again." I remember I was going through a tough time, I was going through frustration, anger issues, bills were due, I was frustrated at myself and others while sitting down at Church, I recognized the anger and frustration I had and I was tired of it. I had a vision right before they called people to the altar. I had seen all these pretty gemstones and crystals on an ice cream cone. I said, "Father, I want to birth forth the treasures of your heart, but what I was saying was, "Father, I want to have the beauty of your gemstones and crystals." They were beautiful, and I recognized, me being angry and frustrated, made me look and feel ugly and dark on the inside. When I went to the altar for the altar call, the pastor said, "I see a rainbow of colors surrounding you and squeezing you like a mummy." I knew it represented the seven spirits of God, but little did I know he was birthing forth the different colors of the treasures (Crystals and gemstones) of his heart. I didn't realize the crystals help fight off negative energy (demons), I didn't think they help you physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually, and at the same time protect you depending on their function. When he told me to leave the Church I was at, during that time, he downloaded revelation in the scriptures about crystals and their benefits in the bible that has been in the word of God, that we overlooked. The bible talks about them even protecting us, you might ask, "Where are these scriptures at in the bible?" I'm glad you asked, it's within this book. In this book, you will see and know what the Lord was prophesying to the people in the word of God using the crystals in different scriptures. People are reminded of the rainbow is not only the promise that the Father won't flood the earth again, but also the rainbow releases the promises of God through covenant with the Father. People look up at the rainbow and question why their blessings and promises have not become manifested yet. In this book, you will find out why most people don't receive their full inheritances, covenant blessings, that the Lord releases through the rainbow. It will be shown and explained how to unlock and receive your full, inheritance, and blessings, and prayers through the rainbow with the use of crystals. I go over a few of my experiences with crystals through the Father through Christ the Living Rock. One thing for sure Jesus Rocks!
