This book was released on 2017-04-02 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Life becomes life to all of us at some point or another. When the punches are harder, the kicks more powerful, and the truth is like the cold of a long, gray winter. According to this world, Andrew Wilkinson had everything. A successful family, a powerful father, money, material possessions, selfish luxury, and a life of travel and comfort. Then the bottom fell out. What happens when our truths evaporate in front our eyes? Where life as we know it doesn't exist anymore. When the storms come and illusions are the first casualties. Andrew Wilkinson knows and he has written about it in his first book, The Blessings of My Storms. Sixteen years ago, Andrew left his home state of Kentucky with the structures and beams of his life burning in the rearview mirror, and his father gone. Things could get worse and they did. Much worse. Only when he sat, chained with one eye swollen shut and nowhere left to run or hide, was he able to see. God had him in a corner that forced him to turn around and look at his life. The story Andrew tells is one of brokenness, surrender, forgiveness, and restoration through Jesus Christ. The life Andrew lived and his father, mother, and brother are gone, but as he learned, if we turn to God and go to Him, it is in the darkest and most destructive storms that God will rain His blessings down on us.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Purpose of this Storm is a life-changing read. It's not just another great book but one that you will read over and over to bring encouragement and strength during your Spiritual storms. It will force you to go dig deeper into the word of God, it will challenge the way you look at the seeming difficulties you may be facing or have faced and recognize that every one of those, has a GREAT purpose. Spiritual storms refer to those unpredictable, untraceable, and devastating events that come into our lives without warning, often shattering our world. It is the devastating news you get that immediately causes you to question the very foundation of your faith, like the doctor telling you that you have stage four cancer or that you will never conceive; having to report your child missing; watching your spouse walk out of what you thought was an extremely secure marriage; or any other news you receive that forces you to agonize before God. We all are confronted with Spiritual storms at some point in our lives, and the emotional and psychological impact of these storms can be crippling. The weight of some of these storms can lead the believer to lose hope in God. The truth is no one voluntarily chooses a Spiritual storm, but the fact is, we experience them all the time, even the most committed of Christians. Living a consecrated life in Jesus Christ will not prevent us from experiencing Spiritual storms. It is often very tempting for us to immediately associate our storms with us being outside the will of God. God sends storms into our lives, to get our attention, to mature us, to build us and to get glory out of us. Are you ready to be a conduit for God's glory? Get ready for this book to truly minister to your heart.
Download or read book Practicing the Power written by Sam Storms and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2017-02-07 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bible teaches us that we are to be filled with God's Spirit and that God's presence and grace is manifested among his people as they serve, love, and minister to one another. Yet some of the gifts that God offers to his people aren't commonly seen in many churches today. Gifts of prophecy, healing, tongues, and other supernatural gifts of God seem to be absent, and many Christians are unsure how to cultivate an atmosphere where God's Spirit can work while remaining committed to the foundational truth of God's Word. How can Christians pursue and implement the miraculous gifts of the Spirit without falling into fanatical excess and splitting the church in the process? In Practicing the Power, pastor and author Sam Storms offers practical steps to understanding and exercising spiritual gifts in a way that remains grounded in the word and centered in the gospel. With examples drawn from his forty years of ministry as a pastor and teachers, Storms offers a guidebook that can help pastors, elders, and church members understand what changes are needed to see God move in supernatural power and to guard against excess and abuse of the spiritual gifts. If you long to see God's Spirit move in your church and life, and aren't sure why that isn't happening or where to begin, this book is for you.

Book excerpt: In this new book by Tony Cooke, he outlines three different storms in the Bible, why they came and how they got through. Jonahs storm, the Disciples storm and Pauls storm. Jonahs storm came in the midst of disobedience and he got out of his storm through repentance and consecration to do the will of God. Because he was delivered from his storm, Jonah made it to Ninevah and delivered Gods message and the people were spared. In the disciples storm, it came in the midst of perfect obedience. They got out of their storm when spiritual authority was exercised and the command of faith was spoken. The disciples brought Jesus to the other side and a demoniac was set free. The third storm outlined was Pauls storm and his came through the disobedience of others. He got out of his storm through perseverance and enduring faith. Paul made it to Rome and the gospel was presented to Cesar. No matter what kind of storm you are going through in life, you can persevere, survive and overcome and lead out the plan God has for you.
Download or read book Struggling Into My Blessings written by Prophetess Patricia Grimes-Jones and published by . This book was released on 2020-03-17 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Struggling Into My Blessings: Storm Before The Calm," Volume 1, is comprised of a non-fiction, mystery and suspense drama. The story is real and infused with adversities, animosities, hatred, lies, theft, drugs and much more. As a young girl, I went through many trials, tribulations, and troubles; my life was like a scary roller coaster ride. I was a victim of abuse, I was raped and didn't understand how and why I was chosen, to have my life violated. I told my mother about what happened, but she didn't believe me; that hurt me very much. She spoke rudely, as she accused me of speaking falsely, against the adult she interacted with. How could a mother be so content, and not show concern towards the well-being of her child? Why did she wait, until she was on her death bed, to apologize to me? Because I was treated offensively, I became defiant and turned to the wrong crowd. My rebellious attitude caused me to fall beneath my Godly character, and become discourteous and unruly. I broke rules, made unwise choices, and challenged authority; my spirit was non-submissive. I felt demolished, so my mind was deeply weighed down with anger, hurt, and pain; I felt ungrateful. The faith I had, was knocked down, I had no positive desire. I started experiencing severe downfalls, when I got blind-sided, after engaging with the mind of a corrupted soul; I fell in love. I ended up in an uncomfortable situation, and never paid attention to the red flags until detrimental chaos occurred. I experienced heartache, pain, betrayal, abuse, and my dreams were shattered; my life felt worthless. I didn't know if I was going to live after I was beaten by a gang of females, that showed hatred towards me; I received lacerations in my face. Once I defeated those devils, soon afterward, I had to run for my life, because shots were being fired. I thought I was done with the madness, but then another evil spirit tried to run over me with a car; in which I broke my leg while trying to duck and hide. I dedicate my story of real facts, to every individual that has suffered from the setbacks of disobedience; it will enlighten you. My near-death experience taught me how to live by the principles of God's word; I almost lost my sanity. Making unwise choices, and trying to prove a point, to hurt others, will lead to a life of destruction or death. This book is powerful, eye-opening, and shocking!
