Did you ever want to know why God didn't overrule a disobedient Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden and simply take back the dominion over the earth He had given Adam? Or wondered why evil has ruled roughshod in the hearts of so many? Or how about why God doesn't heal mankind's diseases with a wave of His mighty and compassionate hand?
Destined to Overcome addresses these questions and much more. The answers will surprise you with their simplicity and truth. The 123-page book is filled with information that could change your life, your home and your nation, and it all starts with the power of prayer.
S.D. Gordon has said that "the greatest thing anyone can do for God and for man is to pray."
John Wesley declared "that God does nothing except through prayer."
Destined to Overcome is divided into four major parts with each part filled to the brim with no-nonsense information on living a victorious life, here and now, not in the sweet by and by.
Part one: The Technique Of Spiritual Warfare. (Quote, pg. 35) "By brainwashing and deception, Satan has succeeded in convincing the Church that he is almost, if not quite, as powerful as God, when actually he has no power at all."
Part two: Developing The Personal Prayer Life. (Quote, pg. 63) "I believe the sole reason for the conception, initiation and operation of the system and practice of prayer is God's master plan to produce overcomers for the throne. Prayer is never to persuade or assist God."
Part three: Turning On The Switch. (Quote, pg. 90) Hebrews 11:1 Faith is the evidence of things not seen. "Mind you, that although the 'things' spoken of are not seen, they nevertheless do exist and faith is only becoming convinced that they do exist."
Part four: Spiritual Warfare. This part is devoted to Billheimer's testimony and ministry. He passed away in 1984.
Warning: This book will challenge you to step out of your comfort zone and become the prayer warrior God always knew you could be.
Armchair Interviews says: Thought-provoking book for believers.
