The Games We Play
This book is not about amazing feats of sportsmanshipIt is not even about the down-and-outters bouncing back. It is about establishing a new world order that triumphs over deception, corruption and wickedness. It is about everyday believers turning the world right side up and to the glory of God. This book is written for anyone who feels unable to handle the hand they have been dealt; it is for the person wondering whether they will ever emerge victorious from 'under the bus' of frustration, rejection failure, addiction, unmet expectations, shame or incompetence. It is dedicated to those struggling to keep their spiritual head above the troubled waters of doubt, despair or unbelief. This is a story about hope, strategy and unrelenting faith in God. As the salt of the earth, believers have a duty to en- hance the flavour and improve the quality of life in society by sprinkling a 'taste of heaven' wherever we are. As the light of the world, we have the capacity to banish the darkness of deceit, wickedness and des-pair. Surely, the world ought to be better because we are in it..., sprinkled & switched on 24/7... otherwise, we are 'good for nothing'.

It was horrible and unlike anything anybody had ever heard of or seen before.

The Blood Of Christ What Jesus Said
The LORD thy GOD will raise up unto thee a PROPHET from the midst of thee, of thy brethren, like unto me, unto HIM ye shall hearken;I will raise them up a PROPHET from among their brethren, like unto thee, and will put MY WORDS in HIS mouth; and HE shall speak unto them all that I shall command HIM. And it shall come to pass, that whosoever will not hearken unto MY WORDS which HE shall speak in MY NAME, I will require it of him.For Moses truly said unto the fathers, A PROPHET shall the LORD your GOD raise up unto you of your brethren like unto me, HIM shall ye hear in all things whatsoever HE shall say unto you. And it shall come to pass, that every soul, which will not hear that PROPHET, shall be destroyed from among the people.While he yet spake, behold, a BRIGHT CLOUD overshadowed them: and behold a VOICE out of the CLOUD, which said, is is MY BELOVED SON, in whom I AM, well pleased; HEAR YE HIM.Deuteronomy 18:15, 18:9Acts 3:2223Matthew 17:5King James Version
