Spiritual Warfare, Volume 1 by Christian Author Wisdom Mupudzi

Wisdom Mupudzi, multi published, award-winning author and Head of Intercession within his church releases his 2nd book, Spiritual Warfare, Volume I. This invaluable book is written to uplift, encourage and teach the Body of Christ to partake in their royal roles as kings and priests. From a solid biblical foundation, the author gives powerful insights into the spiritual realm. Beginning with prayer and intercession, the author lists three levels (kingly, priestly and prophetic intercession) as some of the believer's most powerful arsenal. Continuing on to discuss the different watches and the importance of these watches, the author teaches about the "gates" to which the enemy has access to our soul. Following with the power of the spoken word, generational curses and spoken curses, believers are encouraged to understand the natural as well as the spiritual realm in order to walk in their destinies and find victory in Christ. Truly revealing and practical, this book will educate and encourage the Body of Christ to walk with purpose-as kings and priests. A highly educational, inspiring and encouraging must read for the Body of Christ.

By addressing all these issues in a practical manner, the author teaches how one can be influenced by the demonic and how one can be set free from demonic influence. This teaching is imperative as we live in a world filled with demonic media and influences through many different venues. These gates can be accessed without our knowledge and these demonic forces that are against us in the spiritual realm are the cause of much confusion and destruction in our world. The author displays that by acting in our role as kings and priests, how these three levels of prayer (kingly, priestly and prophetic intercession) can be accessed in our lives, thereby revealing the power that the Lord has given us through our royal position in the Lord. Many do no realize just how much influence and power the Lord has given believers when accessed by pure motives and a pure heart- the authority available is indispensable; this book will change your view of prayer and ignite your prayer life in a wonderful, refreshing way. The author has written a much-needed book that gives the Body of Christ powerful insight, wisdom and encouragement to fight the battles in the heavenlies that wage war upon our souls.

Author Jeff Morton, Two Messiahs - The True Messiah and the prophet of Islam

Enlightening, entertaining and educational Two Messiahs by Jeff Morton addresses the controversial issue of Christianity and Islam head on. Join these two Messiahs from two world religions as they engage in a friendly conversation down the winding ancient path from Emmanus to Jerusalem. The reader will be intrigued to discover their identities according to each religion (Christianity and Islam), but more importantly the significant differences. One is Jesus, the other is Isa, the Prophet of Islam. One is the true Messiah, the Son of God and divine in nature, the other, a man and servant of his god.

Relevant for today, this unique book written by Biola University Professor and author, Jeff Morton reflects and reveals the truth about who Jesus the Messiah is. Two world religions cross paths as the author desires to minister to Muslims and Christians alike in this different and unique way. He tells a story, thereby teaching Christians about Islam and reveals to Muslims why Jesus of Nazareth is the true Son of God sent to bring salvation to the world. As the author states, most of the misunderstandings stemming from the differences between Christianity and Islam come from a lack of information.

Author Jeff Morton is a Professor of Intercultural Studies at Biola University and has been ministering to Muslims since 1984. He has ministered in many countries to include West Africa, the U.S. and many other nations. He and his wife Debbie now live in Southern California near one of the largest mosques and Muslim communities on the West Coast. His background is one of extensive research in apologetics, theology and he is particularly interested in presenting the Gospel to those of Islamic backgrounds. He is a member of SIM and i2 Ministries as well. He has trained many missionaries and university students abroad to include Brazil, Thailand, Pakistan and the U.S.

Two Messiahs by Author Jeff Morton is available at Amazon and other fine online bookstores.

"The Lucky One" by Nicholas Sparks

*****
When U.S. Marine Logan Thibault finds a photograph of a smiling young woman half-buried in the dirt during his third tour of duty in Iraq, his first instinct is to toss it aside. Instead, he brings it back to the base for someone to claim, but when no one does, he finds himself always carrying the photo in his pocket. Soon Thibault experiences a sudden streak of luck—winning poker games and even surviving deadly combat that kills two of his closest buddies. Only his best friend, Victor, seems to have an explanation for his good fortune: the photograph—his lucky charm.
Back home in Colorado, Thibault can’t seem to get the photo—and the woman in it—out of his mind. Believing that she somehow holds the key to his destiny, he sets out on a journey across the country to find her, never expecting the strong but vulnerable woman he encounters in Hampton, North Carolina—Elizabeth, a divorced mother with a young son—to be the girl he’s been waiting his whole life to meet. Caught off guard by the attraction he feels, Thibault keeps the story of the photo, and his luck, a secret. As he and Elizabeth embark upon a passionate and all-consuming love affair, the secret he is keeping will soon threaten to tear them apart—destroying not only their love, but also their lives.
Filled with tender romance and terrific suspense, The Lucky One is Nicholas Sparks at his best—an unforgettable story about the surprising paths our lives often take and the power of fate to guide us to true and everlasting love.

"The Bliss Experiment: 28 days to personal transformation" by Sean Meshorer

****
HAPPINESS IS GOOD. BLISS IS BETTER. We have a higher standard of living and more ways to instantaneously fulfill every desire than ever before. Then why are we unhappy? Because happiness isn’t what we really want. Happiness alone is fleeting and not deeply transformative. Bliss is a spiritual state where happiness, profound meaning, and enduring truth converge. With bliss comes an unshakable joy, a practical wisdom, and a lasting solution to our personal and planetary sufferings. Based on a successful seminar taught by Sean Meshorer, a leading spiritual teacher and New Thought minister, The Bliss Experiment contains dozens of stories of real people learning from everyday situations, backed by more than five hundred scientific studies. This is the one essential book that distills and unifies seemingly competing practices, philosophies, religions, and psychologies. Meshorer includes exercises that have worked time and again for people from all walks of life—including him. Meshorer suffers with severe chronic pain and is able to live his life to the fullest through the practices he shares here. Bliss helps with stress, anxiety, and depression. It makes people more successful, better able to see and seize opportunities, and build or improve relationships. Give these ideas and practices twenty-eight days of dedicated attention and you will see results. You only need a moment of bliss to benefit the rest of your life. The text includes links to bonus videos of Sean Meshorer expanding on the book’s themes and demonstrating the exercises.

Fantastic Book. Uplifting and spiritual renewing. This book is being passed on to some others but for this type of "self-help" book I am wanting back. Loved it and congrats to Sean Meshorer. Loved it!!!

This book was a goodreads first-reads giveaway! Thank you Goodreads.

"Blue Haired Alien Girlfriend" by John H. Carroll

***

Blue Haired Alien Girlfriend is a short story about an unusual young couple. Joshua is a manager at FishBurgers. He meets a young blue haired alien named Mariella.
It's a quirky romance story with unusual characters. It is FREE at Smashwords. :)

 

This short story is pretty cute, I wish it was a bit longer since the ending was just like "poof" gone. Cute idea, could add more story to it. Easy to read. Good writing, just needs a bit more of description and a bit more to the story line. Keep working hard at it. This could turn out big and amazing if it is rewritten and turned into a whole series...

 

"Nephilim" by L.A. Marzulli

*****
Two years ago, Art "Mac" Mackenzie was a respected newspaper journalist with a wonderful family and a great future. Now he lives by himself, eking out an existence as a freelance writer. His faith in God, humanity, and virtually everything else is gone. What's left is a pile of bills and the ache of his eldest son's death. Enter a woman in a psychiatric ward, with an off-the-wall story of how aliens abducted her, created a baby within her, and later stole it. From her seemingly twisted account springs the potential media story of the century . . . and more trouble than Mac has ever imagined. In this engrossing page-turner, Mac follows his story to Israel, where he comes across the remains of one of the nephilim: an ancient biblical giant, sired by demons and born of human women. Mac's encounter is just the tip of a terrifying supernatural iceberg -- for the nephilim are back on earth. And Mac has stumbled onto their secret. Nephilim winds from the Holy Land to the Nevada desert, through mind-numbing dangers and choices that will affect the future of the human race. Just one hope stands between Mac and destruction: the power of the risen Messiah. But can it save Mac and his children from the evil spiritual forces that spawned the nephilim? Or fulfill his agonizing quest for meaning and purpose in life?

"Sapphire of the Fairies" by Richard S. Tuttle (Sword of Heavens book one)

****
The sky is dark. Neither the sun nor the moon have been seen in decades. The land is fruitless, and the seas are barren. No law exists, only the rule of might is exerted over a hapless people by those who can wield it. In a land of darkness and despair, there is one shining light, an ancient prophecy that foretells of the coming king and his companion, the vanquisher of evil.
Sapphire of the Fairies is the first of seven volumes of the epic fantasy series Sword of Heavens. Explore a vast continent where elves, dwarves, unicorns, fairies, demons, dragons, and man all exist. Sapphire of the Fairies begins the saga of five humans on the verge of adulthood. Living in a land where no one can be trusted, these five adventurers must restore the magical Sword of Heavens and defeat the Evil One, an evil sorcery whose minions roam the world in an attempt to defeat the ancient prophecy.

OH! Just by looking at the book I had questions. Personally the cover on this book is horrid and repulsive... Then I started reading...whew! Clean writing, easy to read, would be great for my step son to indulge in!!! Love magic, love adventure, good job!!!!! Will recomend to others!!

"What Necessity Decrees" by Carola Robert

*
'What Necessity Decrees' offers an astounding new theory of conscious evolution based on relationship. By defining the tensions of increasing relating-awareness as the catalyst for man's emerging conscious necessity, it explores the implications of relationship.
As it crystallizes the essence of texts like the ancient Greek myths, the bible and the Arthurian legends, it unlocks the code of human condition hidden in these scripts. Thereby re-interpreting the story of conscious beginnings, it describes what happens when the tensions and pain of this process are inappropriately 'resolved' by consecutive generations and how each new generation reflectes not only the challenge itself but its various outcomes in lineage.
Based on 12 psychological archetypes the book then explains how in-divi-duality (internally divided duality) moves further apart in every generation, thereby polarizing the next one. Until biblical references like 'the sacrifice' and 'redemption of sin' become understood as the signs of negatively resolved, conscious evolution, that call for the full realisation of relationship.

Not an easy read, interesting informational essays though. It could have been more. It was a bit boring, but did have an excellent amount of information. I had a hard time finishing this book. I do not like to give one to two stars on books. Unfortunetly, This one falls hard on a 1.5...

Thank you to the Goodreads First Reads giveaways.

"Battlegrounds to Boardrooms" by Sam Divine, Jr.

Thank you to the goodreads, first reads giveaway for this book!!!

"Rebounders : How Winners Pivot From Setback To Success" by Rick Newman

****
Let’s face it: Setbacks happen, and failure is always a possibility. But here’s the good news: Amazing success has been achieved by people who once fell flat on their faces. The secret lies in how we respond to life’s bumps and pot holes and unwelcome detours—from getting fired or losing a business to enduring a professional rejection or pursuing a passion that fails to pan out. Misfortune, it turns out, can be a springboard to success.

In Rebounders, U.S. News & World Report journalist Rick Newman examines the rise and fall—and rise again—of some of our most prolific and productive figures in order to demystify the anatomy of resilience. He identifies nine key traits found in people who bounce back that can transform a setback into the first step toward great accomplishment. Newman turns many well-worn axioms on their head as he shows how virtually anybody can improve their resilience and get better at turning adversity into personal and professional achievement.

• Setbacks can be a secret weapon: They often teach vital things you’ll never learn in school, on the job, or from others.
• There are smart ways to fail: Once familiar with them, you’ll be more comfortable taking risks and less discouraged if they don’t pan out.
• “Defensive pessimism” trumps optimism: Planning for what could go wrong is often the best way to ensure that it doesn’t.
• Know when to quit: Walking away at the right time can free the resources you need to exploit better opportunities.
• “Own the suck”: When faced with true hardship, taking command of the pain and sorrow—rather than letting it command you—lays the groundwork for ultimately rising above it.

Each lesson is highlighted by candid and inspiring stories from notable people, including musician Lucinda Williams, tennis champ James Blake, inventor Thomas Edison, army veteran and double-amputee Tammy Duckworth, and Joe Torre, former manager of the New York Yankees.

In this uncertain and unstable time, Rebounders lays out the new rules for success and equips you with the tools you need to get ahead and thrive.

Very interesting and makes me believe i can do ANYTHING!!! Very motivating or "get off your bum and get to work" motivational book. Will definately pass this book on to others. Must Read.

Thank you to the goodreads, first reads giveaway for this book!!!

****
