Progress report
The first book that I wrote is Harm not the Oil and Wine, I could not have done it without the inspiration and teaching from the Lord.
To read more information on this book, click here, and to get a copy click here.
Today, I want to tell you about two books that I am currently working on.
One of these books was handwritten in three notebooks. I wrote it in 2011 but put it aside when the Lord inspired me to study the book of Revelation that resulted in the book Harm not the Oil and Wine.
I am currently copying this book on my computer so that I can publish it.
This book is entitled Broken hearts, wholesome God.
It is the story of two broken hearts both spiritually and literally (myself and son) that have been repaired and restored by the Lord.
The second book that I am working on is entitled Six things the devil does not want you to know.
I realized that since the fall of man in the Garden of Eden the devil has intensified his deception in this world.
His primary way to spread deception is to twist the truth by dressing the lies in clothing that appeared like the truth.
Thus many people fall prey to his deceits. To avoid been entrapped by his lies we need to know the devil’s identity. We need to get in his mind and see how he operates.
Jesus told us to be wise as the serpent. The serpent is the devil and Jesus is telling us that he is wise.
We, therefore, have to be able to unravel his mind to ascertain how he thinks so that we can be prepared and be one step ahead of him so that we can quickly counteract his attack without getting injured or struck down in the process.
To all my readers
Please share with me some of the things that the devil does not want us to know about him.
Thank you for participating.

Disturbed by the immaturity of Christians, and having a heart-felt longing for intimacy with Jesus, they followed God’s lead into the unknown. Their journey led them down the ancient paths of faith.

When Heaven sighs by Susan Guinn. This book will be released on August 1, 2020.
Below is a short synopsis of the description.
Beneath layers of glamourous country music stars and professional athletes, deceit and brutality stalk the city sidewalks of Nashville, Tennessee in the form of assassins sent by a secret society to find and destroy a missing Dead Sea Scroll.
On a steamy day in August, a young Bible student dies from the Ebola virus on a downtown sidewalk. Close to midnight on the same day, tires screech and a young girl screams as the body of Father Tom McClarin smacks against the hard, cold asphalt in front of the cathedral where he serves. Both men’s destinies have been bound together by their mutual belief in the ancient scroll which possibly contains a unique message for today’s churches. Continue reading
