Overview
Did you ever wonder about Christians that seem to be blessed in everything they do, and talk about God like they really know Him? This book shows how you can become one of them. It defines the kingdom of God "on earth as it is in heaven", interweaves scripture and personal testimonies of who God is and how to know Him. It relates the Old Testament journey of Israel to the journey of a Christian from the world (Egypt) to the Kingdom of God (Promised Land).
Description
Do you want to live in the Kingdom of God “on earth as it is in heaven”? This book will teach you about the Kingdom of God, using scripture and testimonies to challenge you to know God for who He says He is, show you what it takes to enter your Promised Land (the Kingdom of God), and provide you a key to the kingdom and how to apply it in your own life. The book is non-fiction that interweaves personal testimonies with biblical teaching on the Kingdom of God. It is written in a combination of story form and teaching form that keeps the reading interesting, using the author’s personal journey as a Christian over a period of over 20 years, as pertaining to entering the Kingdom of God “on earth as it is in heaven”. The book focuses on three things. The first of these is the Kingdom of God. The book details the biblical basis for and what is the Kingdom of God on earth (not just for heaven). It parallels between the walk of a Christian today and that of the nation of Israel, coming from Egypt to the Promised Land. Secondly, the book focuses on knowing God, for who He says that He is, specifically His covenant names as revealed in the Old Testament, and applying those covenants to daily life. Finally, this is summed up in a message on prayer, specifically the Lord’s Prayer, and how it is a key to entering your personal Promised Land, the Kingdom of God. A significant number of testimonies from the author’s life are intermixed with scripture to bring a story that is both interesting to read and a message that can change your life. The intent is to lead the reader on their own journey to the Promised Land. This book will help Christians of all walks grow in their relationship to God and ultimately realize the Kingdom of God in their own lives.
