Feeling like you've blown it? Reached the point of no return? That
your life hasn't gone as planned? If so, you are not alone. We all
know what it feels like to have life disappoint us and not work out
as we'd hoped. We all know what it's like to long for something
different, something better, and something more... This six-session
video study (DVD/digital video sold separately) shows us how God
can use our messes and still make a masterpiece. Drawing on his own
experiences and pivotal Bible stories, Louie Giglio, pastor and
author of Don't Give the Enemy a Seat at Your Table, shows how God
is all about comebacks. Samson had blown it repeatedly;
nevertheless, he experiences tremendous triumph at the end of his
life. The prodigal son, as Jesus describes him, returns home in
disgrace only to be welcomed by his father with open arms. The list
goes on: Joseph, Moses, and Peter all experienced comebacks. Jesus
himself performed the greatest comeback of all by rising from the
dead. God is in the business of giving fresh starts, and His plans
will always prevail, even when our plans don't. For the times when
we feel like our lives are in the garbage, and it's hard to see
God's plan, this study guide will help you see: How God uses our
circumstances to strengthen us and fulfill his good plan. How to
respond in spirit when our dreams are dashed. How Jesus' life,
death, resurrection, and ascension is not only enough to save us
but also to sustain us. No matter what kind of disappointment or
grief or pain or trouble or heartache we encounter, God always
offers a new beginning, a change of heart, and a powerful spiritual
turnaround. Our current circumstances do not get the final say in
our lives. God does. Designed for use with The Comeback Video Study
(sold separately).
The spoken word has immense potential for either building up or tearing down. Too often, it's the latter. Many of us are daily carrying around hurtful words, sometimes without even knowing it. These negative words have great influence over our lives and the lives of those around us. But thankfully, they are not the last word.
Mary Busha speaks to the hurting and guides them toward victory over the harmful, demeaning, or insulting words of their past. She shows readers how to
- understand the emotions and circumstances behind the words
- choose to want to forgive their offenders
- embrace the truth about who they are created to be
- recognize the effect of both negative and positive self-talk
- pray effectively to break the power of negative words
- and walk in the freedom God provides in his Word
She also encourages readers to find ways to use their own words to lift up the people God places in their paths.
The role of altars in the realm of existence is very key because
altars are meeting places between the physical and the spiritual,
between the visible and the invisible. In one word, an altar is a
gateway in the realm of the invisible. By implication, therefore,
no matter the plan and the purpose of God for your life, family,
children, relationships, businesses, communities, and other
personal endeavours, you must have the spiritual understanding
that, until satanic and demonic altars in your foundation are
overthrown, you are most likely to fall short of God's plan for
your life. No wonder God commanded Moses, "You must destroy their
altars..." (Exodus 34:13-14). In this book, Pastor Uzor Ndekwu
draws from his many years of experience as a deliverance minister
to explain why you must overthrow foundational altars, and why you
must confront demonic or satanic altars erected to hinder or
frustrate God's plans for you and your family.
