Book Description
Let’s be content in who we are in God. There is not another person exactly like us. We are unique, a one-off! There is great power in being ourselves. Trying to be like someone else doesn’t work. We were born to be who we are. We were chosen in advance by God for a particular calling. God has a role for each one of us, a role that only we were born to fulfil. Nobody else can fit into it. It was made and prepared especially for us. Our part fits us like a glove. We don’t have to impress people, we just have to take up what God called us for and chose us for in advance. We need to put our faith into action, and receive all that God has for us.

Happiness
Author: Randy Alcorn
Publisher: NavPress
ISBN: 1496403851
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 575
Book Description
Do you ever wonder whether God even cares if we’re happy? This world can be so hard, and we aren’t promised an easy road. But that’s not the whole story. The Bible is filled with verses that prove that ours is a God who not only loves celebrations but also desperately wants his children to experience happiness. Why else would he go to the lengths he did to ensure our eternal happiness in his presence? We know that we will experience unimaginable joy and happiness in heaven, but that doesn’t mean we can’t also experience joy and happiness here on earth. In Happiness, noted theologian Randy Alcorn (bestselling author of Heaven) dispels centuries of misconceptions about happiness, including downright harmful ideas like the prosperity gospel, and provides indisputable proof that God not only wants us to be happy, he commands it. Randy covers questions like: How can I cultivate happiness in my life? What’s the difference between joy and happiness? Can good things become idols that steal our happiness? Is seeking happiness selfish? How can I achieve happiness through gratitude? What does it look like to receive God’s grace? The most definitive study on the subject of happiness to date, this book is a paradigm-shifting wake-up call for the church and Christians everywhere.

The perfect example of love is in God our Creator. Agape love is the highest form of love ‒ selfless and sacrificial. It is steadfast and unchanging and unconditional.

We are clothed in His righteousness. Our good deeds and self effort will never get us to Heaven. The only way to Heaven is through Jesus.

Seven Truths About Endurance

Languages : en
Pages : 52
Book Description
When we get disappointed, we get discouraged and our expectations of things changing can grow dim. We can feel powerless and helpless. We often don’t understand the circumstances, so we limit God. Our expectation levels and our faith in God can lose their cutting edge, and we can forget how big God is. We need to trust God when we can’t see the light at the end of the tunnel. We need to remember that He Himself is the Light in the darkness, and as we trust Him He will come through for us.

Seven Truths about the Sovereignty of God
Author: Lin Wills
Publisher: White Tree Publishing
ISBN: 1913950271
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 72
Book Description
We don’t need to understand everything, if we know that God is guiding and directing our steps. Learning to accept living with mystery is an essential part of growing into maturity in our walk with God. When it comes to understanding things, we have our territory and God has His. Our territory only expands when He chooses to reveal things to us. That is why we have to trust Him with all our hearts (Proverbs 3:5-6). We need to believe the truth of God’s Word. His Word is truth and knowing the truth sets us free (John 8:32)! If we are not convinced that God’s Word is true, then fear and unbelief come in. That is when Satan has a foothold in our lives. We need to walk by faith and not by sight. We need to trust God’s SOVEREIGNTY and the truth of His Word.

Seven Truths About God’s Promises and Provision

Languages : en
Pages : 49
Book Description
God’s promises are packed with His provision – according to His riches in glory. And you can’t get any more packed than that! God is an abundant God, a God of plenty. Whatever we place into God’s hands, however small, God will enlarge and use in a mighty way. We must never think that what we have is too small. Nothing is too small for God. It may seem small to us, but when God blesses it, it multiplies. A tiny acorn becomes a large oak tree. Perhaps we feel that our gifts, our time, our talents, and our efforts are too small to make a difference. But when we trust God with them and place them into His hands, He blesses them and increases them. God uses them in ways we never imagined.
