Good morning, members of the Hive Book Club. You're welcome to my blog. It feels good to be a part of this great family, and I'm glad that today, I will be sharing my review on a book I've been reading these days.
I want to start by saying it's my first time posting in this community, and I hope I'm welcome.
This morning, I will be doing a review of a textbook that is titled "One Word from God Can Change Your Life"
Aside from literally texts, I also love reading biblical textbook that impacts my life positively. The textbook is written by Sir Kenneth & Gloria Copeland who are from the United States of America.
In this textbook, there are different topics inside. So today, I chose to make a review on the topic Want a change? Make a change.
This particular part is written by Gloria Copeland. She started her write-up by quoting the book of Hebrews, chapter 5:14.
That scripture says:" Solid food is for full-grown men, for those whose senses and mental faculties are trained by practice to discriminate and distinguish between good and evil."
In this book, she shares her experiences about making a change and how God helped her make a change.
She used this scripture to talk about faith. And as a beginner who has just gotten to know about faith. According to her, she urged new beginners to develop a lifestyle of living in contact with God.
She said something about how beginners could do that. That could be done by spending quality time with God in prayer each day.
She said that was what she did, that no one had to urge her to do that. She and Kenneth had some bad experiences, which made them draw closer to God for help.
They were desperate to overcome poverty. They lacked the money to sustain themselves. According to her, desperation and challenges could simplify one's life, and help one eliminate the unnecessary things and go for God.
When she realized she and Kenneth were not lacking anything, she forgot about God. She couldn't pray anymore. That continued for a while before God decided to tell her.
God spoke to her while she was attending Kenneth E.Hagin's meeting. The man began to prophecy, and everything revolved around her relationship with God.
When she returned, God decided to deal with her specially. She prayed and determined she would change things in her life.
She asked God, what to do, and God told her. He instructed her to read John G. Lake's sermon each day, and she did. That's how she returned to God. God also instructed her to pray every morning. Though it was hard, she got used to it.
She admonishes all Christians to train themselves to follow God, just as some people have trained themselves to follow the devil.
I've learnt a lot from this book, and I've started doing what she did.
Thank you all for your time.
