Book excerpt: What do you really want? What do you really desire?What has God put on your heart?and is it really His will for YOU? Dr. Jesse Duplantis takes a status-quo-breaking look at Jesus Christ's teaching about "asking anything" in prayer in his latest book, "Your Everything Is His Anything." You'll learn what Jesus really said about "asking" as Jesse challenges you to look to God's Word, dive into your own heart, and cast off whatever is holding you back from believing Christ's words. "Your Everything Is His Anything" is filled with questions you can ask yourself and wisdom from God's Word to help you better understand your core beliefs surrounding wants, needs, and desires in the believer's life. You'll be inspired to let go of old ways of thinking, adopt Christ's timeless truth into your own life, and begin using the power of His name in a greater way as you start setting divine principles for success into motion in your own life. Jesse will challenge you to reevaluate how you see yourself and your desires in the light of God's love for you. Are you uncertain about what God thinks about your desires? Are you concerned about your own motivations? Are you curious about how societal, religious, or family expectations will fit into your dreams? If so, Jesse will help you to pinpoint your true concerns and correctly identify your mental stumbling blocks so that you can let go of whatever may be keeping you from your dreams, visions, and heart's desires. Chapter after chapter, you'll explore what it takes to accept Christ at His Word and learn principles you can apply to receive exactly what is on your heart. Can you really have everything that God has put on your heart? Can you "ask anything" in Jesus' name? Jesus says you can. If you have a vision you want to see come to pass, a dream you've always wanted to fulfill, or some "thing" in life that your heart truly desires, this book will inspire you to believe in yourself and have greater faith in God.

Download or read book Wonderful Is Your Name written by Tracy L. Johnson and published by Covenant Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-03-11 with total page 115 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wonderful Is Your Name is a personal testimony of the many persons of God. In the book of Exodus, God chose Moses to deliver the Israelites. Moses’s concern was that the people would not respect him as their leader, let alone believe that God sent him. Moses questioned God by asking Him, “Who shall I say sent me?” God’s response was “I Am who I Am—say that ‘I Am has sent me to you’” (Exodus 3:13–14). Anyone who professes to be a child of God understands that He has infinite power, wisdom, and knowledge. He is limitless. He can do all things! I have read the Bible and discovered for myself that God has shown up for believers in such personal ways that they could not deny His omnipotence, omniscience, and omnipresence. As a believer, I had to trust that God could and would be everything I needed Him to be at the exact point in time. Throughout my life, I can attest to the fact that God has never let me down. He has been my Savior, Sustainer, Protector, Provider, Way Maker, Refuge, Resource, Strength, Healer, Peace Giver, Father, Best Friend, and the list goes on. This devotion serves to uplift and celebrate the countless ways in which He has intervened in my life. In this unique book, I provide the name, the meaning, supporting scripture(s), a worship song, and my personal testimony as they pertain to God. Following my testimony is a blank page that allows the reader to write their personal testimony of how God moved in their situation as that particular “God man.” My prayer is that people will realize that God loves them in and through all circumstances. Invite Him into your heart. Confess your sins and believe that Jesus Christ paid the penalty for them all. Because of the selfless act of Jesus (John 3:16), we are restored to a Creator who desires an intimate and personal relationship with each of His children; however, it’s up to His children to understand who He is and to invite Him to be a part of everything. As a result of daring to trust Him, I have learned that God can do all things but fail. He is a loyal and faithful intercessor and a gracious and merciful Father. Just thinking of all that He has done and all that He has promised gives me butterflies. I’ve never known a love like this, and all I can say is, “My God, my God, how Wonderful Is Your Name.”

Download or read book The Headship of Men and the Abuse of Women written by Kevin Giles and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2020-06-17 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years the issue of domestic abuse and violence has gained a lot of attention as the extent of it has become known. Domestic abuse and violence is now of high concern to most churches because it is evident that domestic abuse figures are much the same in our churches, and possibly higher in evangelical churches where the headship of men and the submission of women is made the God-given ideal. In this book, Kevin Giles surveys competently the scientific information on this matter now available and notes that the consensus is that the most sure indicator of higher incidences of abuse are found in communities where men are privileged and expected to be in charge and women are subordinated. This, he argues, should make complementarians consider afresh if in fact the subordination of women is the God-given ideal, established in creation before the fall.

Download or read book Scriptinformatics written by Dr. habil. Gábor Hosszú and published by Nap Kiadó. This book was released on 2021-02-05 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scripts (writing systems) usually belong to specific languages and have temporal, spatial and cultural characteristics. The evolution of scripts has been the subject of research for a long time. This is probably because the long-term development of human thinking is reflected in the surviving script relics, many of which are still undeciphered today. The book presents the study of the script evolution with the mathematical tools of systematics, phylogenetics and bioinformatics. In the research described, the script is the evolutionary taxonomic unit (taxon), which is analogous to the concept of biological species. Among the methods of phylogenetics, phenetics classifies the investigated taxa on the basis of their morphological similarity, and does not primarily examine genealogical relationships. Due to the scarcity of morphological diversity of scripts’ features, random coincidences of evolution-independent features are much more common in scripts than in biological species, thus phenetic modelling based solely on morphological features can lead to erroneous results. For this reason, phenetic modeling has been extended with evolutionary considerations, thereby allowing the modelling uncertainties observed in the script evolution to be addressed due to the large number of random coincidences (homoplasies) characterizing each script. The book describes an extended phenetic method developed to investigate the script evolution. This data-driven approach helps to reduce the impact of the uncertainties inherent in the phenetic model due to the large number of homoplasies that occur during the evolution of scripts. The elaborated phenetic and evolutionary analyses were applied to the Rovash scripts used on the Eurasian Steppe (Grassland), including the Turkic Rovash (Turkic Runic/runiform) and the Székely-Hungarian Rovash. The evaluation of the extended phenetic model of the scripts, the various phenograms, the script spectra and the group spectra helped to reconstruct the main ancestors and evolutionary stages of the investigated scripts.

Download or read book Beyond Global Food Supply Chains written by Victoria Stead and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-07-20 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book takes the upheaval of the global COVID-19 pandemic as a springboard from which to interrogate a larger set of structural, environmental and political fault lines running through the global food system. In a context in which disruptions to the production, distribution, and consumption of food are figured as exceptions to the smooth, just-in-time efficiencies of global supply chains, these essays reveal the global food system as one that is inherently disruptive of human lives and flourishing, and of relationships between people, places, and environments. The pandemic thus represents a particular, acute moment of disruption, offering a lens on a deeper, longer set of systemic processes, and shining new light on transformational possibilities.

Download or read book The Theft of America s Soul written by Phil Robertson and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2019-02-05 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's time to take back what the devil has stolen and bring God back into our culture. Phil Robertson, patriarch of A&E's Duck Dynasty and one of the most recognized voices of conservative Christianity in America, believes that little by little, generation by generation, America has allowed the lines of morality, decency, and virtue to be erased. Our values have disappeared as we began to believe lies that have only sown discord and division. But, most importantly, Phil also believes that things can change. Written with captivating storytelling and unflinching honesty, The Theft of America's Soul shows us how to make America a God-honoring nation once more by dropping the ten central lies that rule our day and replacing them with timeless, biblical truths, including: God's people represent his voice in the world True unity comes from a God-centered culture God's standard for all time is the standard of virtue The Theft of America's Soul is a prophetic wake-up call for anyone who wants to see our nation thrive, challenging us to exchange lies for truths that will bring peace of mind, harmony, and prosperity back to our country--an invitation to experience the life-giving, peace-filling, wholly-transforming love of God. Praise for The Theft of America's Soul: "The moral clarity in this book is so powerful and so refreshing I wish I could give it to everyone I know. Incidentally, the only way something could be this full of truth and wisdom is if its author is a prophet. That he is. Hear him." --Eric Metaxas, author of Bonhoeffer "In The Theft of America's Soul, the Duck Commander has set his sights on something higher, taking aim at the ten lies that have led our culture astray and put our faith, our families, and our freedom at risk. I am grateful for the direct, nonpolitically correct way my friend Phil Robertson lays out the truth. My prayer is that this book finds its way into the hands and hearts of many Americans." --Tony Perkins, president of Family Research Council and president of Council for National Policy

Download or read book Awakening a Living World on a K iy am Stage written by Einat Bar-On Cohen and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2024-03-01 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kūṭiyāṭṭam, an ancient form of Sanskrit theater from Kerala, was traditionally performed only in temples by members of two temple assistant castes. Today, however, it has spread to other castes and to venues outside temples. It is a fantastically complex, sophisticated, layered performance, toiling at amassing and perfecting ways of materializing a world where gods, demons, and mythical heroes live, bringing the audience into these other realities. Taking an anthropological approach, Awakening a Living World on a Kūṭiyāṭṭam Stage explores how Kūṭiyāṭṭam uses cultural dynamics, gleaned from temple ritual and theater, to remove the distinctions between mundane reality and the mediaeval plays being performed on stage. The unique features of Kūṭiyāṭṭam—makeup masks, enthralling drumming, delivering words in mudrā gestures, a shimmering lamp, male and female actors—all intertwine to animate stories from the great Indian eposes. Analyzing the cultural dynamics at work in Kūṭiyāṭṭam foregrounds a symbolic anthropology in which representation and symbols are shunned, while endless repetitions fill the stage with reverberating somatic intensities of profound depth. Thus, a new kind of living reality emerges that includes the protagonists of the play—gods, demons, humans, animals, and objects—together with the artist, the audience, and beyond.
