Strong In The Spirit

Have you ever asked yourself what changed when you were "born again?" You look in the mirror and see the same reflection - your body hasn't changed. You find yourself acting the same and yielding to those same old temptations - that didn't seem to change either. So you wonder, Has anything really changed? The correct answer to that question is foundational for receiving from God. If you lack this basic understanding, you'll forever ask yourself doubt-filled questions like: "How could God love somebody like me?" and "How can I possibly expect to receive anything from the Lord? I don't deserve it, I'm not good enough!" Spirit, Soul, and Body will help you eliminate those and other doubt-filled questions that destroy your faith. If you have trouble receiving from God, this is a must-read!

Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit (Galatians 5:25). The Holy Spirit empowers us, guides us, and enables us to grow and endure in our relationship with the Father through Jesus Christ. Often the most misunderstood member of the Trinity, the person of the Spirit continues to attract attention today amidst church revivals and renewals. In this new edition of his classic Keep in Step with the Spirit, J. I. Packer seeks to help Christians reaffirm the biblical call to holiness and the Spirit s role in keeping our covenant with God. Packer guides us through the riches and depth of the Spirit s work, assesses versions of holiness and the charismatic life, and shows how Christ must always be at the centre of true Spirit-led ministry. A new chapter explores Christian assurance. With abiding relevance and significance, Keep in Step with the Spirit sets forth vital knowledge for healthy and joyous Christian living, through understanding and experience of God the Holy Spirit. Here is a book for every serious believer to read and re-read.

Life Is Never Mainly About Love and Marriage. So Learn to Live and Date for More. Many of you grew up assuming that marriage would meet all of your needs and unlock God's purposes for you. But God has far more planned for you than your future marriage. Not Yet Married is not about waiting quietly in the corner of the world for God to bring you "the one," but about inspiring you to live and date for more now. If you follow Jesus, the search for a spouse is no longer a pursuit of the perfect person, but a pursuit of more of God. He will likely write a love story for you different than the one you would write for yourself, but that's because he loves you and knows how to write a better story. This book was written to help you find real hope, happiness, and purpose in your not-yet-married life.

Imagine standing in the face of adversity, unmoved by your fears and doubts, ready to respond to any spiritual attack. Imagine trusting and hoping in God so deeply that nothing is impossible. Imagine having such great strength of character that the Enemy of your soul fears you. Our Heavenly Father is endeavoring to make us strong in the power of his Spirit, but just like weight training and fitness, it’s not always easy. Physical fitness—just like spiritual fitness—is a process that takes a lot of hard work. God has a way of training us, and when we understand his ways we become stronger through every difficulty we encounter. Have you ever felt like God has let you down, that others have gotten away with hurting you, or that you’ve stepped out in faith only to fail? God wants to strengthen us through the trials of life like he did Peter, Joseph, King David, and others. Spiritual truths and insights come to us as we dig through the Scriptures to understand God’s way of strengthening us. Let’s seek to understand this process and allow God to make us “strong in the Spirit.” There’s nothing like having a personal trainer to help your body reach its full potential. Consider this book your spiritual personal trainer, helping you reach your full potential and become the person God intended you to be, living from a place of strength, faith, and trust. God wants to build spiritual strength in us, and he knows just how to do it!
