Publisher's Synopsis
On Bended Knees is a collection of weekly devotionals that the author has put together as the Holy Spirit revealed same to her. Many of these writings are a result of personal experiences the author has been through and found solace and the required answers through the word of God. "For the Word that God speaks is alive and full of power [making it active, operative, energizing, and effective]; it is sharper than any two-edged sword, penetrating to the dividing line of the breath of life (soul) and [the immortal] spirit, and of joints and marrow [of the deepest parts of our nature], exposing and sifting and analyzing and judging the very thoughts and purposes of the heart." Hebrews 4:12 AMPC. This scripture comes alive in the pages of this devotional and the chapters speak into the life of the reader as a now word!
How do we approach the word of God? We approach the word of God with love, with humility and with expectation. With fresh insight from The Holy Spirit, the author has put this devotional together with real life experiences in the word of God detailing her meditations and the deep truths the Holy Spirit on this journey has revealed to her. These experiences are very relatable to many as is evident from the pages of the book. The very practical examples utilized in the pages of this devotional reveal there is a light at the end of the tunnel in this Christian walk, making the challenges we face look clearly surmountable and showing the reader what to do in various situations. Easily understood based on her style of writing, the truth of God's word is opened up to the reader with answers to several questions that have plagued the Christian mind. The Word is critical to daily living. The Word is logos which speaks to the written Word and the Word is rhema which speaks to divine revelation. The teachings of this book point us to the Master in His Majesty and shows us how to utilize the life building capsules in the Bible for our spiritual development. It puts us on our back so that we can look up. It is directional and instructive, from worry to prayer to intimacy with God to keeping our eyes on the Potter, to dwelling in his secret place, to warring. Each chapter is power, and as we open our hearts to God in scripture through the teachings of the book, we can be sure of a life changing experience. The perfect Helper is waiting at the door of your heart to lead you through.
