Book Description
This book is revealing all the wicked works of Satan and Lucifer, and you will learn a lot about him. There is so much to know about his ways, and how he operates with his wicked angels.

Lucifer had destroyed a lot of great people in the Old Testament like Samson, Adam, Cain, and John the Baptist, and he tried to set up Jesus. Lucifer did not know that Jesus was setting him up instead, and you will see how God Jesus destroyed Lucifer and chopped off one of his heads and wounded him to death. You will also see how God Jesus used his good angels to do His great works for Him in the bible, from Genesis to Revelation, through the power of the Holy Spirit, in my three books.

Book Description
The revealing events in the book are compelling and intriguing. They are powerful, intense, and realistically experienced. The author shares her personal experiences about two beloved family members who cannot tell their story about surrendering to dying. It is no secret that losing loved ones to death can be agonizing and challenging, but the death described in the book made an entrance in a beautiful manner. Death revealed moments of no defeat yet demanded attention from the author to grasp different perspectives about each beloved one. The captivating occurrences of how each beloved one expired are unique revelations that will ignite discussions. The author shares how she came to forgive the young man who murdered her brother and how the spiritual insight from God opened that door to forgiveness. The shared supernatural encounters that started during the author's childhood are regarded as hidden treasures beyond human knowledge. Some of those encounters were not of the Great Divine, but because of curiosity, the author got on a path leading to demonic practices unaware. The dreams in the book are phenomenal and another discussion piece for those who desires the interpretation of dreams. The hereafter is described dramatically and in the book points evidently to there being a life afar from the earthly realm. The childhood memories are remarkably described with love and no regrets. Those memories echo experiences and an environment that shaped the author's world. The strong belief system and faith in God is the pillar that gets the author through those life challenges and devastating situations pertaining to her beloved ones and the medical issues leaving her non-childbearing. The experiences with fibroids and how they formed in the uterus from a natural and spiritual side leave pondering thoughts. The fact of never having children is accepted by the author.
