The Fearless Life by Jentezen Franklin

An Excellent book written on fear and how to overcome it victoriously. Who of us has no fear? I believe that we can all relate to fear. I know personally that fear is an area where I need to overcome as fear has kept me, time and time again, back from going forth in the assignments I believe that God has given to me. As I began to read this book I prayed this prayer which Jentezen Franklin has presented in this book: “Heavenly Father, I want to give You my fears. I turn my whole life over to You. I want to live in faith. I believe; help my unbelief! Fill me with courage, and furnish me with faith. I need it. I want to walk in Your will.” (In Jesus name I pray, amen) Jentezen Franklin shares his testimonies throughout his book. He also gives sound, scriptural advice. This is not my first Jentezen Franklin book that I have read nor will it be my last. I love reading anything and everything that this man writes as I believe his words are inspired by the Holy Spirit and give to him to share with us all. I believe these writings are life changing if they are taken to heart and applied. I recommend this book!

The Bait Of Satan by John Bevere

Having read some of the other reviews here on Amazon concerning “The Bait Of Satan” by John Bevere I have concluded that...I, myself personally, got a whole lot out of it! Having had but “just a taste” of doing the ministry of Jesus Christ for others, one on one...I am all too well familiar with people having unforgiveness and offenses towards others. I have learned that this keeps people in bondage and in order for them to be delivered...they need to go back to these offenses and forgive the person. For John Bevere to write an entire book on this subject...I say kudos! He has hit the nail on the head when he expresses that offenses is a weapon in the hand of the enemy. (satan) There can be many ways we become offended and many reasons! This book goes into great detail about offenses and how we can be free from them. An in-season word....always! I have seen both John and Lisa Bevere on tv and can tell you they are anointed to do the work of our Lord. I recommend this book!

God's Covenant With You For Your Family by John Eckhardt

When first receiving this book in the mail and holding it in my hands I wondered how such a small paperback could have much in it. I was wrong! I told myself then, “Do not judge a book by it's cover!” This may be a small paperback but it's contents are rich and concentrated. I have heard of John Eckhardt's book, “Prayers That Rout Demons” but to be honest, I haven't as yet read it. After reading this book I am considering the others now. This book speaks mostly about God's covenant as the title suggests. It is not something I have studied before and highly recommend it to you. It will give you, as it has me, greater confidence in your relationship with our Lord. Reading this book reminds me of my own bible study notes in a way. The author breaks things down and writes out descriptions of particular words. This brings a greater understanding. I like how the author has taken the time to write out scripture and make it into personal prayers/declarations. Example of this are: “The word of the Lord is proven in my family. It is a shield to all of us who trust in Him.” (2 Samuel 22:31) “The Lord heals the brokenhearted in my family and binds up their wounds.” (Psalm 147:3) Once I got into this book I thought the small size of it was actually good! One could easily keep this in your purse, laptop bag or lunch cooler and take out when you have a few minutes. I really needed this book. I didn't realize how much. I had forgotten about how powerful praying the scriptures and making declarations was! I can see this book as well as the others John Eckhardt wrote as being something any Christian could be benefited by in their walk with our Lord. It has certainly been of help to me. I recommend it highly! I received this book for free in exchange for a free book review from the Charisma House publishing book review program.
