PRAY THE SCRIPTURES WHEN LIFE HURTS by Kevin Johnson

It does not matter how many friends and family you have or how often you see your therapist going through a difficult time is a solo event. PRAY THE SCRIPTURES WHEN LIFE HURTS by Kevin Johnson validates the emotions and points the reader in the direction of hope and healing.

Agony, Loneliness, Questions, Resentment Requests, Frustration, Peace, Surrender and Hope are not just chapter titles they are words that describe the experiences of many. The format of each chapter is easy to follow as an individual or in a group setting. There are numerous Bible verses which facilitate the reader examining his or her feeling.

PRAY THE SCRIPTURES shares the emotional place the author was in during a time of adversity. Many will tell you there is no easy way to cope with pain, even drugs cannot help you escape, it is only through faith that you are able to go through the valley and not go to.

PRAY THE SCRIPTURES is not a book of prayers that incorporates Bible verses but a book of Bible Verses that can be incorporated in ones prayer. There are all types of pain all sorts of reasons a person may feel hopeless but PRAY THE SCRIPTURES can help anyone who believes. By using this book as a healing tool the reader or group leader will open the door for the Holy Spirit to do what drugs or man cannot restore the believer.

ANXIETY, DEPRESSION, INSOMNIA AND FEAR: SIX WEEKS TO CHANGE, a Biblical Plan for Anxiety Management

Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God. It is important that you grasp this concept while you read "Anxiety, Depression, Insomnia and Fear: Six Weeks to Change, A Biblical Plan for Anxiety Management and Changing Your Life!" by Pastor Henry Bechtold and Nathan Stockwell otherwise you will think this is just another self help book and not take into consideration the power behind the words.

This is a Bible based inspiring self help book that may be written for individuals who experience anxiety, depression et al as the title reveals however its’ practical tips can be applied to us all.

Before getting into the actual six weeks approach the writers establish a basis for change. With or without insomnia: prayer, exercise, rest, the words you speak and a few other concepts mentioned must be examined and the necessary corrections made before real change can occur.  

I am not plagued with any of the difficulties mentioned in the books’ title  I do experience stress from time to time and I can tell you that reading "Anxiety, Depression, Insomnia and Fear: Six Weeks to Change, A Biblical Plan for Anxiety Management and Changing Your Life!"  was beneficial.

As I mentioned faith comes by hearing the good news is that along with the numerous Bible verses shared in Part III there is a FREE audio available to download.  The mp3 audio is available at the  SIX WEEKS TO CHANGE website. The combination of reading and hearing will facilitate your believing and subsequent change from a life of anxiety, depression, insomnia, fear or even stress to a life of joy and peace.

I recommend Six Weeks to Change not only for those having problems with discouragement but those who know of someone needing to be encouraged. Equally important is the accompanying audio.

It was a privilege to receive a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for a review.
