You will understand God’s purpose for your life. You will receive the power to overcome. To stand firm. To endure. The enemy knows, that if he steals your identity, you will lose your way and be powerless to be who you were created to be. Your choices comes from that place within, where you know who you are and the consequences of your choices determine the quality of your life. Come with me and discover the truth about what God says about who you are. B y Stella Ashworth God is telling us that we are in a spiritual war. We are facing the schemes of the devil, and our earthly struggles are not, ultimately, against flesh and blood – things of earth. We’re wrestling against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. God has not left us alone but has given us armor to protect us and to help us in our fight, so that we might stand firm. By Stella Ashworth “In his book “The Way of Baalam”, Canon Dave Doveton shows, with great knowledge and skill, how the ancient heresy of Gnosticism is invading both the culture and the Church with devastating effects on moral and social life of our modern world as well as on the ability of many church leaders to maintain the truth of the Gospel. His timely call for clarity of speech and faithfulness of action by Christians in our time needs to be heard throughout the Church”. – Dr Peter Jones; Adjunct Professor, Westminster Seminary, California Psalm 89:34 "My covenant I will not violate, Nor will I alter the utterance of My lips.” 28
