Book excerpt: God only wants the best for us. After all, any parent only wants the best for their children, so why would it be different when it comes to our relationship with God? God’s intentions towards His children have always been good, pure, glorious and wonderful. Only the best says God for His children. God’s plan and purpose for us are the BEST, and this transcends every aspect of our lives, be it our spiritual journey or our journey through life. The VERY BEST God has in store for us will glorify God, exalt His Kingdom, and it will give meaning to our existence. It is the best that will prosper us in spirit, soul and body. If we truly seek God and His plan above all, we then seek His Kingdom and righteousness. And for those who seek His Kingdom with devotion, will be rewarded for the rest shall be added (Matthew 6:33 – spiritual and physical blessings and favour). As we love God, His plan for our lives shall unfold, be revealed and shine as a glorious light in the darkness. And the good news is that it is never too late to come into alignment with God’s plan. Never.

Download or read book Fruits of the Spirit written by Riaan Engelbrecht and published by Riaan Engelbrecht. This book was released on 2023-02-21 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Galatians 5 makes it clear what are the fruits of the Spirit, which include love, joy, peace and self-control. Take note we are dealing here with the fruits of the Spirit, not our spirit. So we can only develop and carry such fruit when we allow God to abide and work in us. Therefore, we have to “live in the Spirit”, meaning walking in the Spirit who produces such fruit. This volume of work has been prompted for the simple reason that the church seems to be neglecting the need to equip disciples who reflect and manifest the character of God. We have become too obsessed with creating a feel-good Church, gifts, signs and wonders, yet ignoring the importance of character. It should be stressed we cannot generate such good fruits that produce moral and godly living on our own, therefore, we need to abide in God to bear much fruit. We need to earnestly cultivate a character that glorifies and exalts God, so that the world may know we are disciples of God because of the fruit we carry.
Download or read book The Witches Brew Devious Gurus Pied Piper Seducers written by Riaan Engelbrecht and published by Riaan Engelbrecht. This book was released on 2023-01-24 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Witches’ Brew, Devious Gurus & Pied Piper Seducers Part 1 and 2 is the tenth volume of work in the Perilous Times Series. It continues along with the other volumes of work in the series to sketch an honest and no-holds-barred prophetic reality of the state of the Church and the dangers she faces. For make no mistake, we are living in times of great deception and apostasy, and the Church has been seduced, manipulated and tricked into believing the devil’s schemes, lies and foolish wisdom and also to embrace willfully such a diabolical agenda. Ignorance is not bliss when it comes to obeying and heeding God’s command to walk in God’s truth, perfect will, holiness, way and life. God is not a liar, yet we have heeded this world's dark and destructive temptations to be a loss at sea, tossed to and fro by every wind of teaching. God remains our deliver, and shall bring us into the light from darkness those who seek Him and seek His true and ancient of ways.
Download or read book The Crescendo Thriving in Intense Stormy and Dark Times written by Riaan Engelbrecht and published by XinXii. This book was released on 2023-02-22 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The noun of this word crescendo speaks of the loudest point reached in a gradually increasing sound. It also speaks of the highest point reached in a progressive increase of intensity. The verb speaks of an increase in loudness or intensity, such as the “reluctant cheers began to crescendo". We are in a spiritual season that is reaching such a crescendo. Several years ago the Lord first spoke about how we are heading into a “season”, therefore, a period of time not determined in length, during which things will get very “intense”. It means that as we consider the word “crescendo”, we are right now in a time where the hostility against God is reaching a very intense stage, and such intensity has progressively increased over the years. It will be a season of great spiritual warfare, where many people will struggle to remain standing. So intense is the hostility and the onslaught, that many believers will actually fall away if they are not found to be settled upon the Rock of Jesus. It is a time of quickening what the Lord is doing, but also a time of a quickening regarding the devil’s work. In such stormy and intense times, we need to learn how to thrive, still make an impact for Christ and fulfil the Great commission. This is a collection of prophetic insights and spontaneous prophetic utterances to unveil the scope, magnitude and ramification of the Crescendo season.
Download or read book Dawn of the End Time Remnant written by Riaan Engelbrecht and published by Riaan Engelbrecht. This book was released on 2023-01-20 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: God is calling for a remnant that is completely and utterly set apart for His Kingdom. This volume of work is a collection of prophetic understandings and insights as led by the Spirit of God. It is designed to make us ponder, consider, and reflect on our walk with God. For there is without a doubt an urgent cry from heaven for SEPARATION, meaning we cannot continue looking, behaving, and acting like the world. It says if something looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it probably is a duck. The test implies that a person can identify an unknown subject by observing that subject's habitual characteristics. The problem these days is discerning whether someone is from the world or serving God. On the one hand, so many tend to behave like the world, so based on their habitual characteristics, you would say they are from the world. But then something funny happens – the “duck” is no longer quacking but making other “strange noises”, known by some as praise, worship and prayer! So is this a duck, a hybrid, or something completely different? In other words, are we true followers of Christ or a hybrid product that serves God and the world?

Download or read book True Life in These Troubled Times written by Jeff G Graham and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2006-10 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you long for hope and love in your life? Are you confused about how to find security in a world full of uncertainty, corruption, and pain? Author Jeff G. Graham shows you how to discover the peace you long for with True Life in These Troubled Times: Finding Truth in an Uncertain World. God's great love for mankind led Him to send His son, the Lord Jesus Christ, to fulfill man's most urgent need: to have a meaningful, loving relationship with Him. With honesty and clarity, Graham looks at real-life issues and delves into nurturing the perfect relationship with the One who created you. Graham also argues that the Bible is the word of God and not simply a book full of religious beliefs. Only the Bible contains the fulfilled prophesies of the land of Israel and Jesus Christ. In addition, the Bible demonstrates God's great love for man and shows why a life without a relationship with God is meaningless. In these perilous times, people need purpose and rest. Both of these can be found in Jesus Christ. Let True Life in These Troubles Times help you find your way to Him!
Download or read book Practicing Midrash written by F. Timothy Moore and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2018-07-24 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever been puzzled by contradictions in the Bible? Or wondered why there are four Gospels, three sets of Ten Commandments, or two creation stories at the beginning of Genesis? Beginning with the first pages of Genesis, the Bible tells most of its stories through multiple versions, which contain both similarities and disagreements. The inherent arguments in Scripture did not seem to bother the Jewish faith. A practice called midrash developed in Judaism sometime before the days of Jesus. Rabbis and scholars sparred over opposing passages, developed theological arguments, and filled gaps in biblical stories with their own understandings. This book will use the threefold prayer of St. John of the Cross to allow the divergent voices in Scripture to speak and practice midrash with each other, enabling the reader to join the conversation. The contradictions and arguments have a divine purpose. Not only did they prompt the Bible’s evolution over hundreds of years, but have enabled it to remain a living word for thousands of years. This pluralism in the Bible is good news for the faithful living in a multi-cultural, pluralistic age.
Download or read book The Prophetic Realm written by Riaan Engelbrecht and published by Riaan Engelbrecht. This book was released on 2023-01-19 with total page 373 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the Old Testament, the prophet would guide the king, therefore the people, by speaking the will of God, and many times the will of God will include correction, judgment and warnings. Prophets were often ignored in the Old Testament, while even back in those days among the true prophets you found many speaking deceptions and lies. Today, nothing has changed, because God does not change (Hebrews 13:8). Prophets are still called to lead the corporate church by speaking and declaring the will, the purpose and the mandate of God. What the prophet utters may contain correction or judgment, or it may speak of encouragement, direction or wisdom. Prophets still speak to nations, or even to a multitude of nations, declaring the will of God not just unto the Church but unto secular leaders as to warn, to guide, to direct and to declare the heart and mind of God. Thus from the old to the new, nothing has changed in regard to the prophet. Yet the office is often misunderstood, and also shrouded in mystery, erroneous perceptions and terrible abuse. This series divides the truth from the myriad of lies, misconceptions, fallacies and erroneous teachings regarding the prophetic.

Download or read book Why God Calls Us to Dangerous Places written by Kate McCord and published by Moody Publishers. This book was released on 2015-08-14 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Perhaps that’s the greatest reason why He calls us to dangerous places: so that we will know His astonishing, sacrificial, life-restoring love.” Why God Calls Us to Dangerous Places is about what is lost and what is gained when we follow God at any cost. Soon after 9/11, Kate McCord left the corporate world and followed God to Afghanistan—sometimes into the reach of death. Alive but not unscathed, she has suffered the loss of many things: comfort, safety, even dear friends and fellow sojourners. But Kate realizes that those who go are not the only ones who suffer. Those who love those who go also suffer. This book is for them, too. Weaving together Scripture, her story, and stories of both those who go and those who send, Kate considers why God calls us to dangerous places and what it means for all involved. It means dependence. It means loss. It means a firmer hold on hope. It can mean death, trauma, and heavy sorrow. But it can also mean joy unimaginable. Through suffering, we come closer to the heart of God. Written with the weight of glory in the shadow of loss, Why God Calls Us to Dangerous Places will inspire Christians to count the cost—and pay it.
