In this New Studies in Biblical Theology volume, Andrew Shead examines Jeremiah's commissioning, embodiment of the word of God, covenant preaching and "oracles of hope." He shows how a differentiation between the divine "word" and the prophet's "words" enables the word of God to function as an organizing center for the book's theology.

New Edition of a Powerful Prayer Tool from Two Ministry Leaders If you long for spiritual breakthrough, use the method as tried and true as the Bible itself: Pray the Bible out loud before moving into silent communion with God.

This gives you quick and easy access to 88 Bible prayers that speak to any situation in life. Each section includes an introduction and practical instruction on how to pray the specific type of prayer. Whether you are a novice or a seasoned intercessor, this unique prayer tool will lead you on a pathway to a deeper life with God.

“I used to be a lesbian.” In Gay Girl, Good God, author Jackie Hill Perry shares her own story, offering practical tools that helped her in the process of finding wholeness. Jackie grew up fatherless and experienced gender confusion. She embraced masculinity and homosexuality with every fiber of her being. She knew that Christians had a lot to say about all of the above. But was she supposed to change herself? How was she supposed to stop loving women, when homosexuality felt more natural to her than heterosexuality ever could? At age nineteen, Jackie came face-to-face with what it meant to be made new. And not in a church, or through contact with Christians. God broke in and turned her heart toward Him right in her own bedroom in light of His gospel. Read in order to understand. Read in order to hope. Or read in order, like Jackie, to be made new.

New York Times bestseller What is Jesus worth to you? It's easy for American Christians to forget how Jesus said his followers would actually live, what their new lifestyle would actually look like. They would, he said, leave behind security, money, convenience, even family for him. They would abandon everything for the gospel. They would take up their crosses daily... But who do you know who lives like that? Do you? In Radical, David Platt challenges you to consider with an open heart how we have manipulated the gospel to fit our cultural preferences. He shows what Jesus actually said about being his disciple--then invites you to believe and obey what you have heard. And he tells the dramatic story of what is happening as a "successful" suburban church decides to get serious about the gospel according to Jesus. Finally, he urges you to join in The Radical Experiment -- a one-year journey in authentic discipleship that will transform how you live in a world that desperately needs the Good News Jesus came to bring.

The words you speak and proclaim by faith are spirit and life. Inside of you are seeds of greatness and your thoughts must be must be right. If you can speak it by faith, see it; feel it and you will have it. By your words you are justify or condemn. Your words are vital important. God's word carries His power and life. You are so important and precious that God the Father, Son and the Holy Spirit created you and He want to lavish His love on you. When God creates, He creates with precision and purpose. He created lights for a purpose and darkness for another purpose and created man (you) for a purpose. That purpose is for fellowship, to rule over, to reign over, to be responsible, to be master of all, and complete authority over, power over, dominion over the earth. Gen 1:26-28 " 26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. 27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. 28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth". (KJV) The starting point of fulfilling God's purpose for anyone therefore, is to be productive. God's highest purpose for you is revealed in this passage as being "to show forth or proclaim the praises of God who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light". To show is to demonstrate or display or express as God's own special people, the praises of God. Your purpose is to declare to people. Announce it to the world the praises of Him. We are therefore primarily made as agents of worship to glorify God our maker. May you live up to God's expectations of His glory being made manifest in every area of your life, in Jesus Name. The Bible says in Eph 1:5 & 11 "we are predestined according to the purpose of Him who works all things after the counsel of his own will". This means that no one can determine his purpose in life by himself because it has been predetermined before the creation of the world and therefore not open to choice. The purpose of every human being in this world is to glorify God. Faith sees beyond the moment. Faith sees beyond the problem. Faith is not bound to the present but crates room for the future to be realized. Faith focuses on the glorious outcome on the other side of a calamity. Do you think you have missed it beyond repairs? Have faith in God. Do you think that opportunity will never come again? Have faith in God. 1 John 5:4-5 "Every child of God can defeat the world, and our faith is what gives us this victory". (CEV)
