I'll Hold You in Heaven


Book Description

For those who have lost a child to death, Jack Hayford provides compassionate answers to troubling questions such as, What happened to my baby after it died? Will I ever see my baby again - and will I recognize him? what happens if I've had an abortion? Does God have a reason for letting my child die? God's Word shines with hope in the dark night of human pain. God showed his tenderness when David lost the child he had with Bathsheba shortly after its birth. In his pain and grief, David spoke the word of revelation - reassuring word of God's truth - saying, ''I will go to (my child) but he will not return to me'' (2 Samuel 12:19 - 23). The freeing truth of the Word of God promises that, like David, you will hold your child again in heaven.

Minister's Manual for Baby Dedication


Book Description

What you hold in your hands is a God-inspired manual that is both unique and relevant for today's day and age regarding our children and their future. A heinous plot seems to be underway by the Enemy as the suicide rate among children and young people escalates with each passing year. What other explanation could it be than the Enemy trying to annihilate their God-given lives and, ultimately, their destinies? Now more than ever, it is important, if not essential, to dedicate our babies to the Lord and guide them in the steps of His righteousness. As a minister, you may very well be the first voice in a child's life who will discern, pray, and decree the Word of God which has the propensity to shape the course of their future and destiny; thus, The Minister's Manual For Baby Dedication is for you. It is a directly insightful guide for ministers by Minister Sandra Williams that not only stresses the integral role ministers play when dedicating a life to God, but also takes them step-by-step through relevant declarations and decrees that must be spoken by ministers, parents, and godparents alike in the presence of the Lord. It does not matter the spiritual or economical status of a child's parent. It does not matter what sort of home a child comes from. What does matter is that all children should be viewed, received, and dedicated to the Lord for they were intricately and intrinsically designed and blueprinted to fulfill a purpose. Let us, as ministers of the Lord, fight against the Enemy and help our young ones know Him so that they may fulfill their preordained destinies, and experience divine healing and wholeness in spirit, soul, and body. Sandra J Williams is an Ordained Minister of the Church of God with the International Offices in Cleveland, Tennessee. She is the author of the books: God, Was He There? & Ichabod or Glorious, Which of the two defines your Church, and an entrepreneur, (lasignaturecheesecakes.com). Sandra has an inexpressible love for God and loves people. She shares the same sentiment of the apostle Paul's statement, "Woe is me if I preach not the Gospel of Jesus Christ." She desires to see and experience the heart of a God being made manifest in her ministry, i.e. people being saved and be free indeed; sanctified, filled with the Holy Ghost, and come into their purpose and fulfill their a God-preordained destiny; experience divine healing and wholeness in spirit, soul, and body. She is passionate about God's kingdom agenda; her resolve is to be actively involved in the advancement of His kingdom.

No Place for Truth


Book Description

Evangelicals, argues Wells, have largely lost the truth that God also stands outside all human experience, that he still summons sinners to repentance and belief regardless of their self-image, and that he calls his church to stand fast in his truth against the blandishments of the modern world.
