Inspirations of the Heart Volume 42~Exalted Faith The Awe of God


Book Description

Inspirations of the Heart Exalted faith is about the will of God coming alive in our lives, now mind you, what you see in this text is only a mere portion of what could have been said. In other words, This work could have been 20 chapters, with several more spiritual redirections, with many more spiritual inputs of directives and spiritual points to consider. The thing about me is that I pay attention to the Holy Spirit speaking to me when I write what happens then is that when the Spirit reveals to me to stop and move on, I do not go on and put more of me into what is being said, that would be disobedience. The power of the presence of God is everywhere all of the time, but in a recent book I wrote, I considered the idea of what I call the ethics of supply and demand, what do I mean? When it comes down to the presence of God within our lives, if our desire is all about us, we cut God out of the picture and he cannot supply to us the desires of our heart even though he wants to.
