Prayer, as Saint Sophrony said, is ‘infinite creation’ because it opens before man infinite paths to eternity. It abolishes the power of the spirit of evil, which is a spirit of destruction and ruin, and attracts the Presence of the creative Holy Spirit. The Paraclete Spirit endlessly enlarges the heart of man. He renders it into a place of charismatic divine Presence and a temple made without hands, where supplication and intercession are offered for the whole world.

The path of every man toward God and his relationship with Him is unique. However, because we all share the same human nature, there are certain stages and characteristics common to our spiritual journey.

Each human heart is fashioned ‘in a unique manner’ by the Creator. It is the true temple where man can meet God and unite with Him. This is why the heart requires ‘a noetic and divine sensation’. However, man is now fallen, his mind scattered throughout all creation, and his heart in a state of lethargy. His tragedy lies in the fact that he lives, speaks, thinks, and even prays outside his own heart. To be healed, the heart must be awakened, the mind must return to its place, and unite with the heart.

Still reeling from a personal tragedy, investigative journalist Rooker Lindström finds a grim hideaway from the world.

This is an audiobook with a practical message for the new converts, older believers, and even leaders who will help each one of them to grow more and more in their walk with the Lord and to rise to great heights with the Lord.

This volume undertakes a study of the leadership substance and styles of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob (Israel), and Joseph—son of Jacob. Abraham leads from a position of the Father, while Isaac leads from a position of the Son at rest and at peace. Jacob transforms from the worldly and carnal into Israel, the spiritual and divine. He signifies how a believer can go from carnal to spiritual.

The devil rules the world through continental arch-demons called Princes. For example, there is the Satanic Prince of Asia, the Satanic Prince of Europe, the Satanic Prince of America, the Satanic Prince of Oceania. Under these continental spirits, and in loyalty to them, are regional and national spirits. Under the authority of the continental Prince, are National Princes that control Satan's affairs in each nation. And, on the ninth of April 1992, the Satanic Prince of the city of Yaounde was bound, unseated, and overthrown.

Discipleship is a very costly business, and in moments of severe trials, one may be tempted to ask, “Why go into all this trouble of suffering with Christ? Why not give up? Is there any reward?” A disciple of Christ is a person who has, first of all, received the Lord Jesus Christ as his or her personal Savior and is therefore reconciled to God, and, secondly, has set his whole heart, mind, and all to seek him.

Written in an accessible, conversational style that incorporates numerous stories and questions, this book exposes the weaknesses of a Western worldview through a personal engagement with Indigenous theology. Randy Woodley critiques the worldview that undergirds the North American church by dismantling assumptions regarding early North American histories and civilizations. Woodley explains that Western theology has settled for a particular view of God and has perpetuated that basic view for hundreds of years, but Indigenous theology originates from a completely different DNA.

Meet the challenges of modern living and integrate the teachings of Christ with your everyday life!

Being an effective Christian is tough in a world that is increasingly at odds with what you believe. But living at odds with the world is not what Jesus would do. He would meet the people around Him at their point of need and minister to them in a loving and sincere way. He calls you to live this way too. But how are you to do this?

Their stories are not fairytales, their road was not easy, and their examples are not perfect. They lived in times and places quite different than ours. Yet they hold up a mirror to our souls that can help us better understand our own story. And in doing so, we find freedom to come to God as we...

When the body of a woman—missing for eight years—is pulled from the lake, evil comes knocking again. This time with a note meant just for Rooker: Won’t you come out and play?

In the early Church, only disciples were known. Those who belonged to the Lord Jesus were called “Disciples”. Who is a disciple? The Lord Jesus intended that everyone who is led to him, and who therefore knows him personally and is dynamically related to him, should enroll in the school of a Disciple Maker who will make him into a Disciple, which means somebody committed not only to be like Christ, but also to bring others to be like Christ.

By the hand of God who knows how to prepare those whom He wants to raise to greatness by trials, he came to leadership over Egypt and was an instrument of deliverance for his people. Joseph was a man of vision and sexual purity. This book responds to an urgent need of God to raise up in the church men and women of spiritual nobility like Joseph.
