"In Favor of the Saints: Living, Standing and Taking Possession of the Kingdom in This Evil Day" is a profound exploration of the Kingdom of God and Christian ministry. This insightful book is essential for Christian men, women, and teens seeking a deeper comprehension of their faith and the expansive reach of their mission. The book demystifies the concept of Christian ministry, stressing that it is not confined to the ordained or those who have passed through seminary or Bible school. It illuminates the original Greek translation of the word 'minister, ' elucidating its implications of delegated authority and redefining the role of a Christian beyond conventional understanding. It underscores the pressing need for understanding spiritual warfare, drawing attention to the growing disillusionment and closure of churches. It presents the spiritual armor needed to stand firm, revealing how every believer is called to be a minister, an ambassador for Christ, and a testimony in this world. The book emphasizes the immediacy and presence of the Kingdom of God, urging Christians to recognize and take possession of it. It propounds that the Kingdom is not merely a past or future concept but a present reality where Christians enact their faith. It's a practical guide on how to know God's voice and establish the Lord's authority through prayer and praise. It delineates the steps to deliver individuals from the dominion of Satan, underscoring the transformative power of a dedicated, living faith. As one of the most enlightening Christian discipleship books around, it provides a fresh perspective on the teachings of Jesus (Matthew 28:18-20) and explores the meaning of biblical ministry as expounded in Ephesians 4:11-12. It firmly asserts that every disciple of Jesus is called to the vital ministry of discipling, baptizing others, and spreading the teachings of Christ. This book calls for all Christians to live, stand, and take possession of the Kingdom in these trying times. It is an indispensable guide for anyone yearning for a deeper, more substantial connection with their faith and their calling.
