Book Description
The world is a hydra-headed organism whose operations can take many forms and shapes based on how much you understand it and the moment you meet it. In my short stay on this terrestrial ball, I have observed that what you do not understand, you can hardly affect. And there is nothing more frustrating than attempting to change a thing you understand nothing about. For Daniel to influence Babylon, he had to understand the system; for Jesus to change the world He spent time in the temple listening to the teachers, asking them questions and learning from their answers. Understanding the world system is an important key to influencing it for God. Some Christians prefer to stay out of various sectors of human endeavour, preferring to simply pray and watch things happen. I think that Christians should get into all the aspects of human endeavour and bring Christ there. Whether it is in government or entertainment, in finance/economics or television, in fashion or sports, in literature or information technology, in academia or research, in manufacturing or caregiving, we should fully be there and represent the kingdom of God. Our absence has not made the world a better place; shying away, because we feel these sectors are dirty, is shying away from our duty to bring light into every part of the world. Where righteousness is absent, evil triumphs and holds sway. That evil continues to pollute the world and our children get contaminated and feel that the unrighteous way is the norm, and the righteous path the abnormal. But when we affirm the supremacy of Jesus in all these sectors, righteousness will subdue evil, and light will dispel darkness. If you are an ambitious Christian who intends to see Christ in every field of human endeavour, then this book will guide you using the example of Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah

Joseph's Dreams

Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 191
Book Description
One mistake some Christians make is to think that because a prophecy has gone out on their behalf concerning what God wants to do with them or because they have seen a vision or received a dream, it must surely come to pass no matter what they do. They think that prophecies, dreams and visions shouldn’t be appropriated; after all, they’ll come to pass with or without input from the recipient. In this book, you will discover the pathway to accomplishing God-given dreams as we learn from the life of Joseph. He sent a man before them, Even Joseph, who was sold for a servant: Whose feet they hurt with fetters: He was laid in iron: Until the time that his word came: The word of the LORD tried him. The king sent and loosed him; Even the ruler of the people, and let him go free. He made him Lord of his house, And ruler of all his substance: To bind his princes at his pleasure; And teach his senators wisdom. Israel also came into Egypt; And Jacob sojourned in the land of Ham. Psalm 105:17-23 KJV

Year Of The Rat
Author: Jorah Kai
Publisher: More Publishing
ISBN: 1959604007
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 496
Book Description
THE YEAR OF THE METAL RAT, 2020, was a time of panic, uncertainty, and great division. CHINA, VIETNAM, CANADA, SAUDI ARABIA, ITALY, ARGENTINA, AMERICA, JAPAN, AUSTRALIA, PHILIPPINES, NETHERLANDS, GUATEMALA, UGANDA, THE U.K., SINGAPORE, RUSSIA… As the pandemic spread, some wore masks and socially distanced to protect the vulnerable, while others protested all public health measures as a form of tyranny and caused loud and obnoxious mass disruptions to critical infrastructure in a jarring display of 'personal freedom.' Fake news and echo chambers enabled 'alternative facts,' while unhinged narratives and cartoonish conspiracies ran rampant, often trumping coverage of legitimate and existential converging catastrophes. In YEAR OF THE RAT, the sequel to the international best-seller 'The Invisible War' (Kai's Diary), Jorah Kai documents the world’s largest ‘Zero Covid bubble’ while the outside world handles the pandemic uniquely. Reaching out to friends across the globe, he weaves their stories together. Thirty-six writers from 33 cities in 16 countries share their daily struggles, hopes, and fears for the YEAR OF THE RAT as the SARSCOV2 virus spreads catastrophe to every corner of the globe. "It’s ... the metaphor of the yin and the yang. I’d say right now; we are in the yin. It’s a kind of disaster. It’s sad. And on the yang side... it looks like some sort of a mathematical balance that I cannot explain." - JCVD “I would have done the whole thing for a donut and a tuna fish sandwich. The money meant nothing. It was the opportunity to at least prove to myself that I wasn’t a liar, that I wasn’t living a life of disillusionment. When you think of yourself as being a very creative person, and turn around and realize you’ve been leading a lie.” - Sylvester Stallone (Rocky). "At the beginning of the pandemic, Jorah Kai led a plucky band of frontline workers and activists to fight the pandemic with science. Some called him a harbinger, others a ‘pandemic guru’ as they navigated an increasingly bizarre world of book deals, TV appearances, speaking engagements, and a recovery event with his childhood hero, martial arts movie star Jeanne Claude Van Damme. But nothing could prepare him for what came next..." - The Narrator
