I have found that books that talk about prophecy are sometimes hard to decider. I certainly don’t know what God speaks to anyone so when I hear a prophecy I ask God to prepare my heart. I am always careful when someone speaks about prophecy but I want to be sure that it lines up with the Word of God.

The author does talk about seeing deaf people healed and other miracles that she has witnessed . She does give credit to God for these things but I have to be cautious that the author isn’t show more sensationalizing miracles. I do like that she says the church has to have super natural faith. We need to have the kind of faith that believes that God can heal, restore marriages and see people rise up and walk in peace.

I did like the family history and how God used members of her family to preach the Word and see miracles happen. She has a very good heritage of people that God used to spread His Word. The book does talk a lot about her family and how God used them. Some people have a hard time with prophecy but it is in the Bible. God does warn us though that there will be false prophets so always guard your heart when someone prophecies. I remember the first time I heard a church member member stand up and prophecy. It scared me a little because I hadn’t been raised in a church where prophecy was ever spoken. I have come to understand it now and always rely on God to help me discern what is being said.

The book does talk a lot about what her family has done in ministry and their walk with Jesus. I appreciate her sharing a subject that is not always well received. Her stories are encouraging at times and I like that she is not afraid to let the world know how God has given her the gift of prophecy. With a topic such as this book addresses I leave it up to readers to discern for themselves what their belief is about signs and wonders.

I received a copy of this book from Celebrate Lit. The review is my own opinion. show less
