January 19th Reading
I want to share some great resources with you today!
In Matthew chapter 13 it explains to us the purpose of parables. Jesus always used a parable when teaching. This method was designed to reveal spiritual truths in such a way that those who wanted to respond would understand and receive the truth in an impacting way creating movement in their spirits!
Jesus was a visual teacher! He gave great stories and illustrations to teach us a radical truth! The goal is to grab hold of a truth and for it to plant deep and get rooted producing a bloom of blessings while displaying signs of life!
God has something specific for us depending on our spiritual season. The past year I was going through a lot of change! God had bigger plans and needed to uproot me and place me in new territory for His kingdom visions! During this spiritual season I needed to grab hold of many truths so that I would respond and allow my spirit to move alongside of Gods plans.
I purchased many BOOKS during this time to help me understand what was taking place in my life! Books can be a great resource in creating a picture of what God is doing from an others point of view. I was moved from many GREAT books this past year!
These books will help you respond and receive more in certain areas of spiritual truth! I know you will be able to pick up on the path God was taking me through all the titles!
I hope these make for some great reads to add in your library this year!
