This book is just 72 pages, but the information presented is so valuable in preparing one’s heart for a movement of God. She begins the book with the simple declaration that if Jesus is Lord, the Son of God, then that fact should effect a change in one’s life – a profound change. She contrasts the difference between head knowledge and heart knowledge. Even Satan and his demons know that Jesus is Lord of all, but they only know that as head knowledge, they have not placed that knowledge into their hearts to worship the Lord accordingly. And so it is with so many people who profess to be Christians. If the foundation of one’s faith is that Jesus is the Son of God, Risen from the dead, and our High Priest and Chief Advocate, then we should trust the Lord exclusively. This trust is the foundation upon which faith is started and then grows. Too many Christians fail to act on their faith. They have “mental assent” knowledge of the Lord, but they have failed to exercise their faith and step out in faith to receive what the Lord wants to give his faithful believers. Her chapters on what faith is and how to grow faith are so important to preparing for a work of God, for without faith, we cannot please God. Finally, she concludes with the statement that faith is a way of life. We think and believe faith thoughts even when circumstances seem about to overwhelm, for our God is a God that is so much more than the sum of our problems. If you need a powerful change of God to sweep through your life, this book will help prepare the soul of your heart, so that when the seed of faith is planted, it will bear much fruit.
