Everywhere Holy by Kara Lawler

Standing On Holy Ground

Everywhere Holy by Kara Lawler is a powerful book about finding God everywhere. – He is in the mundane as well as the miraculous. We find Him in the valley and on the mountaintop. We meet with God in nature and in church. God is everywhere we are. He is nowhere we are not. “I could meet Him everywhere and anywhere if I’d only look.”

God is alive. He is with us now. We have not left Him somewhere in a past experience. The author explains that the same God of her childhood is the same God of her adulthood. She changed. He does not.

There are times when life feels like we are walking through a fog. We need to know that this too will pass. Whatever we go through, if we look for God, we will find signs of Him everywhere. “A holy beauty is everywhere.”

We cannot stop life happening to us but we can choose how we respond. We need to let go of what we cannot control and breathe in blessing. “There is no mess too big to stop me from seeing life in colour.” Remember when we can’t, God can.

Be Revived by Katie Souza

Healing From The Inside Out

Be Revived by Katie Souza is a powerful book to aid us in our quest to draw nearer to God. She tells how society manipulates us in our quest to keep the aging process at bay. We cannot stop this process but we can become youthful on the inside, which will radiate on the outside, by obeying God’s commands. When we rest in our Creator, we have no worries, feel and look more youthful because we are relaxed.

Life is a spiritual battle. We must not face it in our strength but face our spiritual battles in God’s strength.

Jesus defeated the last enemy – death. Because of Jesus we have grace – we cannot earn it. We don’t deserve it. It is a free gift that costs us nothing but cost Jesus everything.

Satan will try to distract us. We need to focus on God. Praise, prayer and worship will draw us near to Him. We need to let His light shine in our lives. The light will always defeat the darkness.

Focus On The Light

Indestructible by Blake K Healy is a powerful book to equip us in our walk with God. We want to be indestructible so that when the enemy attacks, we can repel him.

Blake K Healy peppers his book with personal stories making this an easy book to relate to. The author has a very engaging style. Throughout there are scriptures to back up his words.

Life is a spiritual battle and we would be wise to choose God. Being where He has called us is the safest place to be. We need to always be aware of where the light is. The light will always dispel the darkness.

Blake K Healy tells us that the enemy steals, kills and breaks. He feeds us lies, lies that only have power if we believe them. We need to be able to discern the truth from the lies, and realign our perspective with God’s.

We are free to choose our responses to all that life throws at us. “It is about engaging with a problem from a place of conviction with God.” When we stand with God, we stand from a place of victory.

To fight the enemy we need to have developed a relationship with God. We need to be intimate with Him, know His Word (the Bible), converse with Him in prayer and worship Him. When we have a relationship with God, we are able to conquer our fears. Fear and faith cannot exist side by side.
