Satan prowls around, ready to pounce on our every weakness, fill us
with fear, and destroy our intimate relationship with Christ. But we
are not defenseless. We have weapons of warfare enabling us to be
spiritually aggressive and face the devil head on. Rather than lose
ground in our faith, we can live armed and dangerous!
In this handbook of militant prayers, evangelist and ex-satanist John
Ramirez helps you prepare for and move into advanced combat. He covers
topics such as
- strengthening your position as a warrior
- opening your spiritual eyes
- releasing the thunder of God against the devil
- loosing God's blessings
- and more!
We have the authority and the mandate to destroy the works of the
devil. Let's do it!
Celebrate A Season of Renewal and Reflection The theme of
bitterness runs through the Bible as a sour reminder of sin's
presence in our world-yet it's because of this bitterness that
Jesus' grace is so sweet and satisfying. As we learn to turn from
our vices and crave real beauty, goodness, and truth through the
pursuit of virtues, we grow nearer to God and become more like who
He made us to be. From Tsh Oxenreider, bestselling author of Shadow
and Light: A Journey into Advent, arrives a devotional to help you
meditate and rejoice in the transcendent miracle of Easter. You
will... uncover what it means to participate in the liturgical
traditions of Lent, from fasting to almsgiving experience artwork
and music that illuminate the impact-both personal and global-of
Jesus's death and resurrection contemplate the wonder of Christ's
redemption of all humankind, especially as this time of
introspection reveals your human limitations Starting on Ash
Wednesday and leading you all the way through Holy Week, Bitter and
Sweet is an invitation to better understand Jesus's sacrifice as
you delight in His ultimate love for you.
The message of the kingdom of God: an ecology of equality and
peace, and an economy of justice. Hope from beyond, sent to the
present, is what Advent asks us to reckon with. Hope consists of
God’s jump leads sent from the future through time and space,
wired right into our present pains, panics, and predicaments. How
can the light of Christ illuminate this present darkness? This book
engages with two great Christmas hymns: the Magnificat and
Benedictus. It is also rooted in poets, prophets and the theology
and devotional writing of the black theologian and mentor to Martin
Luther King Jr., Howard Thurman. Using the lectio divina approach
to passages drawn from Isaiah and Luke, An Advent Manifesto is an
invitation to pray and practise that most ancient Advent prayer,
‘Come, Lord Jesus, come.’
A Lifeline to the Peace and Joy You've been Looking for What if
prayer was more than just something you mumbled before going to
sleep, or said quickly when your team takes the field or you're
about to take a test? What if prayer was a gateway to the best
relationship you've ever had? An energizing, joy-filled,
peace-giving connection to God? This devotional provides regular
readings to help connect you to God through prayer. It also
contains journaling prompts and questions that will bring the
concepts of Worried about Everything to life, taking you to the
next step in your faith. Join pastor/author Chad Veach as he guides
you day-by-day to a closer walk with God. You'll be so glad you
did.
Courage isn’t something that comes naturally to most. The only way to truly be brave is to walk in the confidence that comes from knowing God and relying on him to be your strength.
When you spend time with him, he will fill you with peace and hope for the future. When you finally see yourself as God sees you, you will recognize the talents and abilities you have been blessed with and start operating in the fullness of those gifts.
Be encouraged with truth as you spend time with God, reflecting on these devotions, scriptures, and prayers. Let him show you that you are beautiful, you are strong, and you were created with a purpose. Take courage in God’s love for you and be ready to conquer each day!
Winner - Edward Stanford Travel Memoir of the Year 2019.
Shortlisted - Rathbones Folio Prize, RSL Ondaatje Prize, and
Somerset Maugham Award 2019. In 2013 Guy Stagg made a pilgrimage
from Canterbury to Jerusalem. Though a non-believer, he began the
journey after suffering several years of mental illness, hoping the
ritual would heal him. For ten months he hiked alone on ancient
paths, crossing ten countries and more than 5,500 kilometres. The
Crossway is an account of this extraordinary adventure. Having left
home on New Year's Day, Stagg climbed over the Alps in midwinter,
spent Easter in Rome with a new pope, joined mass protests in
Istanbul and survived a terrorist attack in Lebanon. Travelling
without support, he had to rely each night on the generosity of
strangers, staying with monks and nuns, priests and families. As a
result, he gained a unique insight into the lives of contemporary
believers and learnt the fascinating stories of the soldiers and
saints, missionaries and martyrs who had followed these paths
before him. The Crossway is a book full of wonders, mixing travel
and memoir, history and current affairs. At once intimate and epic,
it charts the author's struggle to walk towards recovery, and asks
whether religion can still have meaning for those without faith. A

What would your world look like if you prayed every day?
Every believer who sincerely desires an intimate relationship with God must discover
the transformational power of prayer. This one-hundred-day devotional, inspired by
Mike Bickle’s best-selling book Growing in Prayer, will give readers daily inspiration,
knowledge, and guidance to help them cultivate deeper intimacy with God through
prayer.
Each day contains a quote on prayer from a classic Christian author, a passage from a
chapter in Growing in Prayer for reflection, a Scripture verse or reference, a prayer
starter, a suggestion for practical application of the principle being taught, and lines
for journaling.
This devotional will help energize a prayer life that has become routine, stale, or
nonexistent and will be a welcome resource for believers who desire to grow in
prayer.
Music can either Connect You to God or Drive You to the Devil.
It is time for Christians to recover the full potential of anointed music—in our
assemblies and in society, in our services and on the streets, in studios and in
schools. Today’s Jesus revolution may only succeed with the help of Holy Spirit–
inspired music and an encounter with God.
After reading this book, you will never again listen to a song the same. Discover how
you can use music to release the sounds of heaven and change the world.
On this journey from Ash Wednesday to Easter Day, you are invited
to become a pilgrim with Brother Ramon. Each day there is the
opportunity to stop and reflect on the gospel story, drawing
insight from the experiences of those who were there during the
events of the first Easter, finding inspiration and strength for
the greater journey of our lives. Suffering and glory are
intermingled in real human experience in this book, which is
designed for personal and group use, for Christians of all
traditions.
