Jesus Perfect and Forever
Author: Jo Ann Hill
Publisher: WestBow Press
ISBN: 1490871756
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 102
Book Description
In a time that I needed God, He was always there. Starting from the time that I was around three years old, I would stand at the window when the storms came and pray for safety for my family. God never failed me. There have been many trials and sorrows in my life, but God already had chosen a plan for me, and it would be carried out. God is a God of promises, and he always keeps His promise (John 3:16). At the age of eleven, I started to go to the library, where I taught myself to read from beginners books. It was then that I realized what God truly wanted from me. He wanted me to be able to read the Bible (His Word) and carry a message of hope, love, and peace to as many as possible. I was to tell about the Savior Jesus Christ who came, died on a cross, and was resurrected for the sins of all people. I want the world to know Jesus, perfect and forever. Without the direction of the Lord, this book would never have been possible. All of the glory goes to Him. Remember to go forward with bold confidence and take what Jesus is waiting to give you: peace, love, joy, and eternal life.

If GOD were your FATHER
Author: Marcus Newsome
Publisher: Covenant Books, Inc.
ISBN: 164471924X
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 99
Book Description
In studying the Bible for many years, I've learned that every command of GOD leads us back to two commands: loving GOD and loving your neighbors (Exodus 20). These passages clearly point out how we should be functioning as children of GOD. A person who refuses to harken to GOD is automatically in obedience to other gods, even the god of self. Deception is when you think you are in obedience to GOD when in fact you are not. In the past, we have had many great prophets, but none of them expressed GOD the Father to perfection like the Son, Christ Jesus. So any actions outside of the harmless life of Christ subjects you to other gods and eliminates GOD as your Father.

Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 126
Book Description
In her quest to have a more meaningful spiritual relationship with God through His Son Jesus Christ, Savitri Scott made the choice to look deeper into Gods Word to find Him and have daily conversations with Him. The result has been irrefutable evidence of the power and significance of prayer in the life of a Christian, along with inexplicable peace, joy, and reassurance.

It demonstrates the sufficiency and privilege of prayer, and non-condemningly assures of Gods declaration of love and promise of forgiveness and salvation through His Son Jesus Christ. Centered on daily prayer and Scripture, this book endorses Gods Word to enliven a stronger and deeper relationship with our Creator and Father. Let the readings become a personal tool to spiritually stimulate and jumpstart continual, personal, spiritual intimacy with God. Seek personal, intimate time with God for a more personal and intimate relationship with Him.
