This book is about the unseen world all around us. There is a spiritual dimension in this world, as well as, the next. The spiritual world here is made up of both good and evil.
Even if we don’t acknowledge the spiritual world, it still exists. The author tells us how to combat against the evil forces in this world–how to successfully live here. He gives ideas about ways to pray, suggestions for Bible reading and urges us to stay aware of the spiritual dimension. The reader is encouraged to align their thoughts with God’s thoughts. Mr. Graham reminds us to put on the full armor of God, and explains what that is in depth.
Sadly, the author knows that we will have times of trouble. He relates that in his own life his father was brutally murdered. Despite that horrible ordeal, Mr. Graham wants us to remember that Jesus has overcome everything in this world. As Jesus said, “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”–John 16:33 Mr. Graham tells us following Jesus and His ways got him through the horror of the murder of his father. That event is what brought understanding to the author about the spiritual world.
This author also talks about the spiritual world to come and the victory we will have there. It is a wonderful place that includes reunions with loved ones, independence from pain, freedom from sadness and the joy of being with the Lord. It is a place where, at last, we will find liberty from all the constraints of this world.
This is a great book for many different reasons. It gives good advice for people who are having difficulties, and gives solid instruction about dealing with them from a spiritual perspective. The book also gives direction for any Christian whether they are in the midst of troubling times or not. Finally, we get the hope of the next world along with descriptions of what to expect there.
This is a book every Christian should read. It is eye opening and gives good direction for everyone no matter what stage of life they are in. I would recommend it for someone going through difficult times. I would also recommend it for someone who has been blessed not to have experienced difficult times, but wants to be proactive for the future. In the spirit of unseen warfare around us, I seriously suggest the reader pray for lack of distractions and good concentration when reading. This book gets five stars and my recommendation.
