MOVING FORWARD BY FAITH by Marsha L F Randolph



This ebook is available via SMASHWORDS in all formats. 

Sometimes a person can feel like he or she is the only one in the room who cannot seem to make things happen. I wrote MOVING FORWARD BY FAITH because I looked back on my life one day and realized I made it.
I don’t have a Masters, Bachelors or even Associates degree like many people I have a PhD in life. I survived because when I was down I looked up. There were days when I did not want to go on so I prayed. There were movements when the words “I quit” were on the tip of my tongue but I just said “Praise God” instead.
MOVING FORWARD BY FAITH is what I did and what I do. This book examines four ideas regarding personal growth and development: Perspective, Faith, Forgive and Purpose. As a Bible Teacher I don’t believe any lesson is etched in stone but should be adapted, within the boundaries of Scripture, to personal goals.
This is a revised edition originally published under the pseudonym M L Floyd. As I revised  MOVING FORWARD BY FAITH I was encouraged, we are always going through something. Read this ebook to help determine if you are indeed on the right path.

A note about this review: Yes, I reviewed my own book, I have chosen not to pay for reviewers who pretend to be a non-payed or unbiased reader. Most people who like books will recommend them to friends but not post a review. I write from experience and study and I share what I know with my pen.  FOR THE MONTH OF AUGUST THIS BOOK IS FREE.

INTERCESSORY PRAYER by Dutch Sheets

I was disappointed! I was disappointed because I had purchased this book when it was first published about 10 years ago and aside from the book cover and back it is the same. I am a fan of books by Dutch Sheets and when the opportunity arose to review his book, INTERCESSORY PRAYER How God Can Use Your Prayers To Move Heaven And Earth, I jumped at the chance. Note to self: Check your books before agreeing to review a Dutch Sheets book.

INTERCESSORY PRAYER by Dutch Sheets is a book about praying. (I recently wrote a book on prayer and believe me not everyone prays when they get on their knees.) The reason I like books by Dutch Sheets is because he breaks down the process and helps the reader understand the significance of an action. What I like about INTERCESSORY PRAYER is the author discusses the concept of praying for and praying on behalf of; we pray for a particular need of an individual and we pray on behalf of a particular person or group of people. With this book intercessors, one who prays on behalf of or prays for, understands the concepts of praying.

People who are accustomed to praying: “God bless: mom, dad, me and these three” type of prayers may not enjoy reading this book; it will challenge the way you pray.

There is nothing I could write to convince a person who is already on a prayer team, believes his prayer are good or an individual who does not see the need for intercession. HOWEVER I recommend this book for EVERYONE.

What you will find in INTERCESSORY PRAYER How God Can Use Your Prayers To Move Heaven And Earth is a study on prayer which includes questions at the end of each chapter. You will develop an understanding as to why certain concepts such as spiritual warfare are important to understand and personal repentance are necessary.

I challenge you to read this book. This book is a very important read today which is why it was necessary to release it again.
