Each moment that you’re given is a precious gift from God. You can
choose to have a thankful attitude and live each moment full of joy,
simply because God is good. In The Power of Thank You: Discover The Joy
Of Gratitude, renowned Bible teacher and #1 New York Times bestselling
author Joyce Meyer encourages us to take a look at ourselves and the
importance of being thankful.
Living life with a heart of gratitude for who God is and what He has
done lifts your burdens and allows you to see everything in a different
light. Regularly giving thanks to God not only helps you fully realize
how He’s working in your life, it gives you a new perspective—your mind
is renewed, your attitude is improved, and you're filled with joy.
Things will certainly happen to you that don’t seem fair, and it’s much
easier to make excuses and feel sorry for yourself. Keep saying, “I
trust You, God, and I believe You will work it all out for my good.” If
you find The Power of Thank You in every situation, truly believing
that God is working everything out for your good, you will end up with
the victory every single time.

chosen and edited by Alistair Begg, in order to bring the richness
of the Prince of Preachers' insights into your daily study of God's

meaning without sacrificing clarity, making it easier to engage
with Scripture's life-transforming message and to share it with
others.
This book is an illuminating guide on critical, sensitive and
salvation-based topics that will intrigue, educate, inspire and
above all promote the doctrine of salvation as the focal point of
the entire Bible. The book highlights the fact that humanity's
greatest need has never been the food that satiates his hunger, the
building that gives him shelter, the status that makes him relevant
or anything that caters to his physical needs, albeit it consists
of topics that discuss humanity's daily needs and how they can be
acquired in line with God's word. It adequately emphasises that the
salvation of souls constitutes the greatest need and should occupy
the top echelon of our priorities. The scripture says that faith
comes by hearing and hearing the word of God (Romans 10:17). But
what happens when the word is not correctly taught, or correctly
taught but not completely broken down and hence not properly
understood? This book breaks down biblical lessons in a manner that
will be easily understood by readers. Many have read the Bible and
taught from it wrongly because they missed the central theme of the
Bible which is the salvation of our souls but the words in this
book have been written to help the reader avoid reading the Bible
amiss and achieve this precious and priceless gift - salvation -
that will make existence in this world a meaningful one. The
lessons readers will learn are drawn from the context of the
scriptures, the express commands of God and from the lives and
experiences of several biblical characters. Readers are made to
examine some biblical characters' strengths and flaws, successes
and failures and extract valuable lessons that will guide them on
the journey through life. While people can scan through the Bible
and get a general understanding of the stories within these
chapters, this book will draw the readers' attention to vital
lessons they may not have noticed.
Find power in your prayer like never before with this inspiring guide from #1 New York Times bestselling author Bishop T.D. Jakes.
In a time when women carry more influence than any other generation, the power of prayer has never been more important to remind us that we do not have to bear our crosses alone. We need prayer to stand guard over our hearts and minds and over the hearts and minds of our families.
Women today are shattering glass ceilings and forging new paths in the world. What Happens When a Woman Prays is a clarion call for women to continue their progressive march of empowerment by dreaming like their daughters and praying like their grandmothers.
Through exploring the lives of 10 prayer-filled women of the Bible, Bishop Jakes emphasizes the life-changing power that women have when they find their identity, their strength, their healing, and their voices in Christ.

myth a powerful and haunting humanity' - Jennifer Saint, author of
Ariadne and Elektra _________________ If I told you that I'd killed
a man with a glance, would you wait to hear the rest? The why, the
how, what happened next? Monster. Man-hater. Murderess. Forget
everything you've been told about Medusa. Internationally
bestselling author Jessie Burton flips the script in this
astonishing retelling of Greek myth, illuminating the woman behind
the legend at last. Exiled to a far-flung island after being abused
by powerful Gods, Medusa has little company other than the snakes
that adorn her head instead of hair. Haunted by the memories of a
life before everything was stolen from her, she has no choice but
to make peace with her present: Medusa the Monster. But when the
charmed and beautiful Perseus arrives on the island, her lonely
existence is blown apart, unleashing desire, love... and betrayal.
Adapted from the hardback illustrated by Olivia Lomenech-Gill, this
paperback edition is perfect for readers who loved Circe and
Ariadne, as Medusa comes alive in a new version of the story that
history set in stone long ago. _________________ '... a must-read
