Book Cover & Preview Text
Along this journey I was reminded of the story of Job, who was highly favored and blessed by the Lord, he lost everything through his test; yet he was patient and held steadfast to his faith. In the end, when the test was over, the struggles, the trials, the heartbreak and periods of unbelief he was given back everything he lost and much more. The book of Job will tell you his story, but I am witnessing to you my story; He didn't just do it for Job, He did it for me. God does not move you to suffer in vain. He will give you double, triple and more for your troubles. If you obey, love and honor God His blessings will chase you down with favor.
The promises of God were the guiding force through this journey. The Love of God develops the dream, aspiration, self-motivation to move, set goals and pursue goals diligently. The Love of God is the wind beneath my wing that gives me courage to step out of my comfort zone to reach for higher heights. The Love of God conquers all fears of not being able to start or finish task that appears to be monumental or bigger than what you see as your capabilities.
The Love of God gives me wisdom to seek his permission, ask his guidance, his anointing, to believe his word, stand firmly in faith expecting his favor on any and every aspect of life's journey. The Love of God provided the anchor I needed to hold on too when the word of God kept me grounded, rooted and firmly planted to never give up. The Love of God allowed me to smile in the face of the enemy and to love them with the Love of God that is shed abroad in adversities. The Love of God helped me up when I was knocked down and carried me when I was broken, crushed or too devastated to carry myself.
The Love of God gave me the strength and courage to reach deep into that intestinal fortitude to find peace in the midst of a storm. The word of God allowed me to take refuge and find a place of peace and safety; The Love and word of God let me know I was built to stand and to find the winner in me. There is a winner, king and queen in each of us; it is your responsibility to find it!
