Throughout the Bible, the mountaintop experiences of men and women of faith offer insight into our own personal spiritual journeys. You hold in your hands a year's worth of spiritual exploration, with Dr. Charles Stanley as your guide. You'll discover your inheritance and identity in Christ, how to overcome temptation, principles for building better relationships, how to find direction for your life, keys to closer communion with God, weapons for spiritual warfare, and lessons in love and hope through times of adversity. Into His Presence , a daily devotional from one of America's most respected pastors, will help you move out of the valley and lead you to new heights of intimacy with God.
~Into His Presence~ is an easy-to-read devotional book for Christians. The Christian walk has its dark vallies and joyful mountains. This book offers keys for building meaningful relationships, overcoming depression, working toward closer fellowship with God, and tools for waging our spiritual battles. First, one of the things that helps Christians to stay grounded in the Word of God are practical life lessons and devotional meditations. This book stands in a series of good devotionals that should compel us to closer contemplation and study of God's Word. One of the downsides I find on the Christian walk, as a sinner saved by God's grace, is that even when one diligently tries, one might be cast down as being holier than thou, or self-righteous. In fact, we maybe really trying to do what we ought to be doing. So, how does one keep on going without discouragement? How does one recoup when one takes a spiritual nosedive? Simply by revisiting God's Word. A daily devotional keeps us focused in that study. Because Stanley's message is so richly ingrained in Scripture, it should both humble us and encourage us. The Apostle Paul all the time admitted that he was a sinner, and sometimes did what the Holy Spirit did not perfectly will for his life. By grounding ourselves in the Word, we can overcome adversity and establish a more meaningful relationship with Jesus Christ. Realizing how much pride afflicts our life gives us cause to uproot the little leaven of sin, and Charles Stanley's devotionals give us the tools for such spiritual battles. Charles Stanley of InTouch Ministries is to be commended for his resourceful and didactic teaching style.
