Book Description
As an African American woman, you may not realize that God did a marvelous thing when He ordained that you should live at this time in the history of the church and the world. You are highly favored, and now is the time to take back the reality of God’s favor on you, on us as African American women, on our families, and on our churches. Written from the passion of her heart, Debra Berry warmly shares with you the opportunity for restoration. Be Restored is based on her study of Nehemiah, a servant who accepted God’s calling to bring restoration to Israel after they were released from captivity. Be Restored clearly draws stark similarities between plights of the children of Israel and the African American race at the start of the new millennium. You will understand how some of the faithful followers of God achieved success in exile, while you identify with those who were physically free yet locked in prisons of hopelessness and despair. Restoration must start with one woman at a time. “The voice of the Lord and the voices of our God-fearing ancestors call us to continue the struggle for the restoration of our people. We can only do this by the might and power of the God who loves us.”
