The book was birthed over seven years in the city-wide Bible study group established Sept. 8, 2001. The group's focus was repentance and prayer for families, the military, cities, and nations. After those seven years of studying the Hebrew names of God and sharing Supernatural Event #1 1994 and Supernatural Event #2 1995 of the Rapture the Lord gave her, the outcome was this Bible study workbook.
Miesner spent five additional years transposing over forty women's incredible testimonies with fictional techniques. She felt she was merely a bystander as their stories fell into a chronological pattern, along with her family's story, explaining the Hebrew names of God' character, and actually writing this book from beginning to end.
Readers will travel from Genesis to Revelation 12 as an overcomer sharing their own testimony. This workbook is solid, Scriptural teaching of eternal truths lived out in the lives of real, ordinary people who know who they are and where they are going, because they faced where they came from. Furthermore, they are prepared for Jesus' return.
