Armageddon rising

Why Read Armageddon Rising? We live in a world filled with uncertainty. Wars rage between nations. Economic instability shakes governments and families. Moral values seem to shift with every generation. Technology advances at breathtaking speed while anxiety, confusion, and fear continue to grow. Many people wonder where the world is headed and whether history has any ultimate purpose. Armageddon Rising was written to answer those questions through the lens of Scripture. For thousands of years, the Bible has declared that history is not random. The same God who created the heavens and the earth has also revealed the future. Bible prophecy provides a roadmap that helps us understand not only where the world has been, but where it is going. In a time when many voices compete for our attention, God's Word remains the only source that accurately explains the past, interprets the present, and reveals the future. This book is designed to make the often-complex subject of Bible prophecy understandable for everyday readers. Rather than becoming lost in endless debates and speculation, you will discover the major events that God has revealed concerning the end times. Topics such as the Rapture, the Tribulation, the Antichrist, Armageddon, the Millennium, the judgments of God, and the New Heaven and New Earth are explained in a clear and practical manner. More importantly, this book is not merely about future events. It is about Jesus Christ. Bible prophecy ultimately points to the return of the King of Kings and Lord of Lords. The purpose of studying prophecy is not to produce fear but faith, not anxiety but assurance, not confusion but confidence. God wants his people to know that he remains in complete control of history. Throughout these pages you will discover that every fulfilled prophecy strengthens our confidence in those prophecies yet to come. The God who kept his promises concerning the first coming of Christ will certainly keep his promises concerning the second coming of Christ. Whether you are a new believer, a mature Christian, a Bible study leader, or simply someone curious about what the Bible says concerning the future, this book will help you understand God's unfolding plan for the world. The final chapters of human history have already been written. Evil will not triumph. Satan will not prevail. Jesus Christ will return. God's kingdom will come. And for those who know Him, the best is yet to come. Welcome to Armageddon Rising.

Ecclesiastes Chasing the Wind Finding Meaning in a World that Never Satisfies

In a world filled with noise, distraction, anxiety, and endless striving, the ancient book of Ecclesiastes speaks with startling honesty and timeless relevance. In Ecclesiastes: Chasing the Wind — Finding Meaning in a World That Never Satisfies, readers are taken on a deeply practical and devotional journey through one of the Bible’s most fascinating books. This book reviews the twelve chapters of Ecclesiastes, practically applies the principles to your life, and included study questions after each chapter. Written from the perspective of King Solomon—the wisest and wealthiest man who ever lived—Ecclesiastes wrestles with the same questions people still ask today: Why do success and possessions fail to satisfy? Why does life sometimes seem unfair? Why do people feel empty even after achieving their dreams? What truly gives life meaning? This book carefully walks chapter-by-chapter through Ecclesiastes in a way that is highly readable, encouraging, and practical for everyday life. Rather than presenting dry theology or academic analysis, it speaks directly to ordinary people who are searching for peace, purpose, and direction in a confusing world. Readers will explore topics such as: pleasure and entertainment work and burnout anxiety and uncertainty friendship and loneliness wisdom and foolishness wealth and contentment aging, death, and eternity and ultimately, how to live a meaningful life centered on God Throughout the book, Solomon’s reflections are connected to modern struggles including social media comparison, stress, busyness, materialism, and the constant pressure to achieve more. Each chapter also includes thoughtful “Digging Deeper” discussion questions with Bible verses, making the book ideal for personal devotions, small groups, Bible studies, or church classes. What makes Ecclesiastes so powerful is its honesty. It does not pretend life is easy. It openly addresses disappointment, injustice, sorrow, and the temporary nature of earthly success. Yet through all of it, Solomon points readers toward a deeper truth: Life apart from God will always feel incomplete. This book offers hope to weary people who feel like they are endlessly “chasing the wind.” It reminds readers that true meaning is not found in possessions, pleasure, status, or accomplishment—but in knowing God, enjoying His gifts, and living wisely with eternity in view. If you have ever asked, “What is the purpose of life?”—this book was written for you.

Greatest Wonders of the World Study Guide

From a very young age, I have marveled at both the limitlessness of outer space and the miracle of Earth that we have been fortunate enough to inhabit. With the passing years, I have also developed a deep fascination with the intricate wonders of the human body. As a medical doctor, I have cared for thousands of patients for over thirty-five years and witnessed the oft-times automatic function of the human body. It is so astounding, just like the universe, that I am compelled to describe it for you in this book. I will discuss the origins and intricacies of the universe, solar system, Earth, life forms, and human race, and why evidence is compatible with an intelligent design. When I use the term, “intelligent design”, I mean the theory that an intelligent and a higher power created the universe and its complex life forms, and that natural, random causes alone cannot explain fully them. There are complicated features of the universe and living things and they are best explained by an intelligent cause, which is usually assumed to be God. This worldwide concept will be discussed later in the book.

Harvest of the Heart Cultivating a Life of Lasting Abundance A Biblical Journey Toward Living Fully in God’s Grace

Do you want to live a life filled with not only purpose but also abundance? Then this book is for you. In every generation, believers wrestle with the meaning of a life well-lived. We chase success, strive for comfort, and measure ourselves by the abundance of our possessions. Yet, as the author beautifully reminds us, abundance in God’s economy is not about accumulation—it’s about transformation. This book, Harvest of the Heart:Cultivating a Life of Lasting Abundance, leads readers through the timeless wisdom of Proverbs and the words of Christ, offering a fresh understanding of what it means to thrive in righteousness, generosity, and grace. Dr. Robert M. Gullberg’s reflections are both scriptural and profoundly practical. Drawing from years of study, teaching, and life experience, he invites us to view abundance not as the goal of faith but as the fruit of faithful living. His insights challenge the materialism of our age and guide us toward a richer, more purposeful life anchored in the heart of God. As you read these pages, may you discover that true abundance is not measured by what you hold in your hands but by what overflows from your heart.

Know What The Future Holds A Study of Revelation

In this book, Dr. Gullberg gives concise and clear explanations of the book of Revelation that will be easy for you to follow as you read along with your Bible. Numerous Old Testament references are noted. In 22 short sections, he has streamlined the study of eschatology; the study of end times events that have yet to occur in our human timetable. Enjoy the sobering journey! Dr. Gullberg has been fascinated in future world events ever since reading “The Late Great Planet Earth” by Hal Lindsey in the mid-1970s. At that time, Lindsey asked the question, “Do we live in the era of the antichrist (and End Times) as foretold by Moses and Jesus Christ?” It has become clear to the author that the prophetic Book of Revelation is avoided by many Christians for study. Why? Simply stated-- it is a real faith tester. The amount of symbolism and allegory (hidden meaning) can leave room for one’s imagination. That is why many Christians do not pursue the study of this prophetic last book in the New Testament. I implore you to be different! Explore Revelation by reading this companion book which simplifies End Times events for you.

Ordinary is Enough How Heaven Uses Everyday Lives to Change the World

Are you feeling ordinary? Or inadequate or useless? Don’t worry—you’re in good company. Most people who have quietly changed the world never saw themselves as remarkable. They were teachers, parents, workers, teenagers, neighbors—people with doubts, limits, and everyday lives. Yet God delights in using ordinary people to accomplish extraordinary purposes. That's what this book is about. Your life matters deeply to God, and it also touches more people than you realize. A kind word, a faithful step, a simple act of courage can ripple far beyond today. You are not overlooked or accidental. You are known, loved, and usable. This book is an invitation to believe that your everyday life can become a channel for God’s remarkable work. God has always delighted in using humble people to accomplish his extraordinary purposes. From Genesis to Revelation to today, his story has never been about perfect saints, but about flawed men and women woven together by divine grace. Fishermen, farmers, prostitutes, servants, and shepherds; widows, wanderers, and warriors—each was chosen not for power, but for willingness. God never needed the polished; he has always chosen the available. That same pattern continued through the centuries. For example, in the 1400s, voices like Joan of Arc and John Hus stood for faith against corruption. The 1500s birthed reformers like Martin Luther and William Tyndale, who brought the Word of God to the world. The 1600s saw preachers and writers like John Bunyan and George Fox spark spiritual renewal. In the 1700s, revivalists like John Wesley and George Whitefield reignited hearts for Christ. The 1800s overflowed with missionaries and reformers—D.L. Moody, Sojourner Truth, and George Müller—who changed nations through prayer and passion. The 1900s carried that fire forward through Billy Graham, Corrie ten Boom, and Mother Teresa, proving faith still transforms the modern world. And now, in the 2000s, God continues to use faithful believers—teachers, doctors, parents, athletes, and missionaries—people like Nick Vujicic and Christine Caine—to shine his light in a dark and digital age. From Jacob the deceiver to Ruth the foreign widow, from David the shepherd boy to Mary Magdalene the redeemed outcast, Scripture proclaims a single truth: God can use anyone who says yes. The Bible is filled with common people through whom he revealed his extraordinary strength—people whose failures became fuel for his glory and whose weakness became his greatest stage. In the second part of the book, we explore twenty-four lives from the Bible that prove a timeless truth: God calls willing hearts to do the extraordinary. Behind every act of courage lies humility. Behind every victory stands surrender. And behind every great name is a greater God. You may think you’re too simple, too flawed, or too forgotten. But in God’s hands, the common becomes sacred. The question is not whether he can use you—it’s whether you’ll let him.

Principles for the Christian Life Bible Study Edition

Principles for the Christian Life- Bible Study Edition is a wonderful, practical and valuable resource for everyone who wants to study God's Word! Dr. Gullberg is a devoted student of the Bible, having gleaned much wisdom from his daily personal study of God's Word over many decades. Why write a book like this? Quite simple. To educate the Christian with a “bottom line” format. Hosea 4:6 says, “My people are destroyed by a lack of knowledge.” In Colossians 1:10, Paul prayed that the Colossians would “live a life worthy of the Lord and please Him in every way, bearing fruit in every good work, growing in knowledge of the Lord, being strengthened with all power according to His glorious might so that they would have great endurance and patience…” These two verses, as examples, tell it like it is! Knowledge is the key ingredient to wisdom. This book is meant for deep personal or group Bible study and should be excellent for discussion of practical topics. Though provoking questions are in each section. Part 1 of this book is to simply implement the verses present in the Scripture to direct us on important Christian subjects. It is more than a concordance, which one can find at the end of most any Bible. What one will find in PART 1 are the steering points of the wisdom from the Bible. The topics in PART 1 are the “nuts and bolts” of Christianity. My goal was to keep this book to a “bottom line” level of understanding. Part 2 looks at what is going on in the rest of the world of non-Christendom. In day to day living, I find that most Christians are at best vaguely familiar regarding where other people are coming from in their belief systems. 85% of the people in the world are following other religions. This knowledge should be an impetus for us to not only take a stronger stance on our Christian roots but also be more active in our outreach to the lost. The lost are literally all over the place! They are in India, but also in your neighborhood.

Take two Psalms....and call me in the morning God’s Prescription for Daily Wellness

Having a problem with worrying, depression, anger, addiction, life changes, fear, guilt, loneliness, PTSD, sickness, stress, burnout, or moral failure? Then this book is for you. Essentially, it is a book of God’s prescription from Psalms in response to life’s struggles. The Great Physician wants to be your prime source of hope to help you cope with pain and difficulties. “Take two Aspirins and call me in the morning” was a popular saying used by physicians well over 100 years ago. On March 6, 1899, acetylsalicylic acid (ASA), was patented by Bayer & Co. in Germany under the trade name “Aspirin”. It’s still one of the most highly used medications world-wide. It’s active ingredient, salicin, has been used for centuries to alleviate pain and fever. Even the famous Greek physician Hippocrates (460-370 B.C.) was known to have used it. There’s an alternative plan for wellness besides aspirin or other medical treatments-- redirecting the old standard of therapy of our problems is the theme of this book. Take Two Psalms and call me in the morning addresses health problems that are common in clinical practice. God wants us to go to Him first, with an honest and open heart. He is the most caring Physician in our lives. He desires to work in us through our weaknesses, which can be magnified when we carry mental stress. He allows us to walk through these experiences so that we can learn to turn our faces toward Him. It is not that doctors, counseling, friends, and medications (natural or not) can’t be beneficial. It’s just important that we consider what God has to say about our problems. Don’t leave God out of our healing equation. Many people may ask, “How can reading a Psalm help me more than medication for my problem?” To answer, we must understand first that most of the Psalms are prayers to God. The Bible teaches us that God pays as much attention to the person praying to him as the words that are read, meditated on or spoken. God wants a deep relationship with us, his adopted children. He wants to guide us and answer our prayers that we direct to him. Jesus teaches us in John 16:24, “Until now you have not asked for anything in my name. Ask and you will receive, and your joy will be complete.” One of the most exciting things about the Christian life is the knowledge that when we pray, God is listening. Our Father is delighted when we come to him with our petitions and concerns, and the book of Psalms is rich with examples of how to pray wholeheartedly. I am not a psychologist, professional counselor, or psychiatrist but I have been a practicing clinical physician and have cared for thousands of patients for over 30 years. Every day I see the daily mental and physical obstacles people face in their lives. Rather than pills, herbs, and therapy, I hope Going to God First will become the primary prescription for many of the battles you face. His prescription never fails. God has answers for your problems that will change your life for the better and help to transform you, body, mind, and spirit. He may direct you to healthcare professionals, a new diet, exercise, medication, or therapy to aid you in your journey to wellness. Your journey of good health begins with him. Psalms for Wellness is the second section of this book which will draw you closer to God. King David knew God extremely well. He ascribed to God over 100 attributes. God will reveal insights into his character from Psalms that will give you a glimpse of his glory. Use the second section of the book as a source for individual or corporate prayer.

Greatest Wonders of the World from outer space to inner space

From a young age, I have been captivated by the vastness of outer space and the incredible miracle of Earth, our home. Over the years, my fascination has deepened with the remarkable complexities of the human body. As a medical doctor, I have cared for thousands of patients over the decades, witnessing the often automatic yet astonishing functions of the human body. Its wonders, much like those of the universe, inspire me to share my insights with you in this book. This book explores the beliefs about the origins of the world, examining everything from the universe and solar system to the intricacies of cellular DNA. This book will inspire a sense of wonder and awe about the marvels of creation. It also investigates the ongoing debate between evolution and intelligent design. Science is intricately woven into the fabric of the universe, serving as a tool to understand its mysteries and phenomena. Through observation and experimentation, scientists unravel the laws that govern celestial bodies, from the Sun to the Milky Way Galaxy, and beyond. Physics explains the forces at play, while chemistry reveals the building blocks of matter (atoms and molecules), including the elements that compose stars and planets. This scientific inquiry not only enhances our knowledge of the universe but also deepens our appreciation for its complexity and interconnectedness, illustrating how every aspect of the cosmos is governed by fundamental principles. With forty years of experience in medical science and a college major in chemistry, I am well-equipped to author this book and discuss topics ranging from the universe and solar system to Earth, life forms, and the intricacies of the human body. I will explore the origins and complexities of the universe, solar system, Earth, life forms, the human race, and the human body, highlighting how the evidence aligns with the concept of intelligent design. By "intelligent design," I refer to the theory that a higher intelligence played a role in creating the universe and its intricate life forms, suggesting that natural, random processes alone cannot fully account for their existence.

He Listens When You Speak Developing Intimacy with God Through Daily Prayer

All Christians who are sincere in their faith want to get to know God better day by day. To know God better does not happen without a regular, private time spent in an intimate interface with the Lord through prayer. Jesus said, “the spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.” (Matthew 26:41) I would add to that not only is the flesh weak, but the mind drifts when it needs to focus. This unique book on prayer helps to remedy that problem by how it is formatted. It is different than any other prayer book and is divided into four sections. The first section contains thirty-five Bible studies on prayer to ignite your prayer time. The second section is teaching on the Lord's Prayer, but it is interactive. It is in this section that you will be able to develop a strategy for daily prayer and even use pictures to keep you mind focused. The third section contains four fervent prayers found in the Bible to help you learn how to pray. Finally, the fourth section contains hundreds of sincere prayers to God from the book of Psalms. It is my hope that your heart will be enriched and encouraged by this book's approach to your prayer life.

Life Lessons on Stress, Burnout, and Worry (When you are feeling overloaded)

Stress affects you in different ways every day. Nobody is immune to it. It does not matter what walk of life you are in... stress is there in good times and bad. For instance, your life might be rolling along just fine when you get married and are pregnant with your first child, but then your baby is born four weeks premature with a congenital heart defect and a three-month hospitalization (not to mention that as a parent, you realize that you’re suddenly responsible for the life of another precious human being) … and life becomes stressful. Or your 10- year-old son falls out a tree and breaks his arm…and you worry. Or maybe you are on a stroll in your neighborhood when a stray dog bites you and an infection sets in. Ouch! You will miss two weeks of work…worry sets in. Or you have been happily married for forty years when your spouse suddenly develops Alzheimer’s dementia changing your relationship forever…and anxiety and exhaustion set in. The list of problems that can affect your life goes on and on and on. And these types of stresses are just the “tip of the iceberg” in terms of the hundreds of ways you can experience both mental and physical stress. Though I am not a psychiatrist, I have been a practicing adult physician and have cared for thousands of patients for over 30 years. Every day I see the daily mental and physical obstacles people face in their lives. God has answers for your problems that will change your life for the better and help to transform you, body, mind, and spirit. He may direct you to healthcare professionals, a new diet, exercise, medication, or therapy to aid you in your journey to wellness. Your journey of good health begins with him.

The key is to be intentional in your meeting time. Each devotion starts with a Chapter from 1st or 2nd Corinthians for you and your family to read. Next is a QUESTION with an answer provided. The questions are to help develop Bible knowledge. In the Old Testament book Hosea 4:6, God warns that “His people would be destroyed by a lack of knowledge.” The following KEYPOINT is a summary and practical discussion on the topic covered by the verses. Third, a PRAYER is included which focuses on the theme of each devotion. The prayers have an attitude of gratitude to God which is much needed in today’s times. Teach your children the importance of prayer with this devotional.

Champions of Faith Stories that Inspire and Endure

The Christian faith has been shaped by many heroes across the centuries. As a physician, I have deeply admired missionary doctors like Paul Brand, Paul Carlson, and Hudson Taylor, who faithfully served in India, Africa, and China. During my own years of medical training, I was blessed with the opportunity to work alongside Symon Satow, M.D. and other dedicated missionary doctors and nurses in Herbertpur, India—an experience that profoundly marked and inspired my life. This book journeys through the lives of 28 remarkable examples of the Christian faith taken from Hebrews Chapter 11, the great FAITH chapter. By reflecting on their examples, you will find fresh fuel to ignite your passion for a deeper and more fruitful walk of following Christ. Each story will offer timeless lessons of courage, obedience, and trust in God. As you engage with their lives, may you be inspired to live boldly for his glory in your own generation. A hero is not defined by superpowers, capes, or an untouchable image, but by courage forged in the fire of adversity, sacrifice in the face of fear, and an unshakable commitment to something greater than themselves. True heroes step into chaos when others step back, fueled not by fame but by an inner compass that points toward justice, compassion, and hope. The vast majority of us are not heroes. We look up to heroes because they remind us of the best possible version of humanity—they prove that ordinary people can rise to extraordinary heights, turning frailty into strength and doubt into daring. Their stories ignite something within us, a spark that whispers, “You, too, can be brave.”

Faith the door hinge of life

Faith, The Door Hinge of Life is a deeply personal and inspiring Christian book that explores one of the most important forces in human existence—faith. Just as a door hinge supports and allows a door to open and function properly, faith is the hinge upon which life itself turns. Without faith, people drift into fear, anxiety, hopelessness, and spiritual emptiness. But with genuine faith in God, life takes on purpose, strength, endurance, and eternal meaning. This book takes readers on a journey through the Scriptures, examining the lives of great men and women of faith from both the Old and New Testaments. From Nehemiah rebuilding Jerusalem’s walls under pressure, to Daniel standing firm in Babylon, to the faith of the centurion, Zacchaeus, the Canaanite woman, and the Apostle Paul during violent storms, the book demonstrates how faith transforms ordinary people facing extraordinary challenges. What makes this book unique is its practical and personal approach. Faith is not presented merely as a theological concept, but as something lived out daily through suffering, perseverance, obedience, hope, love, and trust in God. The book openly addresses real-life struggles—illness, fear, disappointment, loss, temptation, and uncertainty—and shows how God uses even life’s crucibles to refine and strengthen faith. As a physician who has personally endured numerous health trials, the author brings authenticity and compassion to these pages. Readers will find encouragement in knowing that suffering can deepen faith rather than destroy it. The book also explains how faith grows through Scripture, prayer, humility, endurance, and a deeper understanding of God’s grace through Jesus Christ. Throughout the book, readers will discover that Christianity is not ultimately about religious works or outward performance. It is about a relationship with God built through faith in Christ. The themes of grace, salvation, forgiveness, and the transforming love of God are woven throughout every chapter. This book is ideal for Christians seeking spiritual encouragement, Bible study groups, new believers wanting to understand faith more deeply, or anyone walking through difficult seasons of life. Each chapter includes Bible discussion questions to encourage reflection and personal application. Faith: The Door Hinge of Life reminds readers that faith is not merely believing that God exists—it is trusting Him completely with every part of life. In a world filled with uncertainty and confusion, this book points people back to the unchanging faithfulness of God and the hope found in Jesus Christ.

Growing in Faith

Growing in Faith is a practical and valuable resource for everyone who wants to study God's Word! Dr. Gullberg is a devoted student of the Bible, having gleaned much wisdom from his daily personal study of God's Word over many decades. Written in a workbook style, it will help you in your personal walk with God. Why write a book like this? Quite simple. To educate the Christian with a “bottom line” format. Hosea 4:6 says, “My people are destroyed by a lack of knowledge.” In Colossians 1:10, Paul prayed that the Colossians would “live a life worthy of the Lord and please Him in every way, bearing fruit in every good work, growing in knowledge of the Lord, being strengthened with all power according to His glorious might so that they would have great endurance and patience…” These two verses, as examples, tell it like it is! This book is meant for deep personal or group Bible study and should be excellent for discussion of many key topics. Thought provoking questions are in each section. The topics in this book are the “nuts and bolts” of Christianity. My goal was to keep this book to a “bottom line” level of understanding.

How Paganism and Easy Believism have Infiltrated the Christian Church

When Jesus walked the lands of Israel 2000 years ago, his primary opponents came from the leading religious leaders of his day, the Sadducees, and the Pharisees. Should it surprise us that history is repeating itself, and that the modern-day Christian church struggles in the errors of the religious educated? It shouldn’t. We have added traditions onto God’s will for his church from the first century, and the church of New Testament Acts. As an active church goer for over 50 years, I keep wondering if I am the only one who notices the adulteration of the church today with secularism. Many church traditions are pagan in origin. Paganism is secularism; meaning without God. Note that just because we use some traditions based on paganism doesn’t make us pagans, but it can creep in and compromise us. “Easy believism” or “easier-to-believism” is prevalent in today’s Christian church movement. It endeavors to make Christianity and the Gospel “palatable” to the American population (by the pragmatic, new or “neo-evangelism”). The pastors of many thousands of Christian churches are typically dedicated people of faith and integrity. However, beware- the “new evangelism” philosophy which some espouse may lead to shallow conversions to Christianity. Many “easier-to-believers” think they are Christians, but they were possibly never “saved” in the first place. They “become” Christians and then they place the “pursuit of holiness” on the back burner.

Morning Psalms God’s Prescription for Everyday Wellness

Having a problem with worrying, depression, anger, addiction, life changes, fear, guilt, loneliness, PTSD, sickness, stress, burnout, or moral failure? Then this book is for you. Essentially, it is a book of God’s prescription from Psalms in response to life’s struggles. The Great Physician wants to be your prime source of hope to help you cope with pain and difficulties. “Take two Aspirins and call me in the morning” was a popular saying used by physicians well over 100 years ago. On March 6, 1899, acetylsalicylic acid (ASA), was patented by Bayer & Co. in Germany under the trade name “Aspirin”. It’s still one of the most highly used medications world-wide. It’s active ingredient, salicin, has been used for centuries to alleviate pain and fever. Even the famous Greek physician Hippocrates (460-370 B.C.) was known to have used it. There’s an alternative plan for wellness besides aspirin or other medical treatments-- redirecting the old standard of therapy of our problems is the theme of this book. Morning Psalms: God's Prescription for Everyday Wellness addresses health problems that are common in clinical practice. God wants us to go to Him first, with an honest and open heart. He is the most caring Physician in our lives. He desires to work in us through our weaknesses, which can be magnified when we carry mental stress. He allows us to walk through these experiences so that we can learn to turn our faces toward Him. It is not that doctors, counseling, friends, and medications (natural or not) can’t be beneficial. It’s just important that we consider what God has to say about our problems. Don’t leave God out of our healing equation. Many people may ask, “How can reading a Psalm help me more than medication for my problem?” To answer, we must understand first that most of the Psalms are prayers to God. The Bible teaches us that God pays as much attention to the person praying to him as the words that are read, meditated on or spoken. God wants a deep relationship with us, his adopted children. He wants to guide us and answer our prayers that we direct to him. Jesus teaches us in John 16:24, “Until now you have not asked for anything in my name. Ask and you will receive, and your joy will be complete.” One of the most exciting things about the Christian life is the knowledge that when we pray, God is listening. Our Father is delighted when we come to him with our petitions and concerns, and the book of Psalms is rich with examples of how to pray wholeheartedly. I am not a psychologist, professional counselor, or psychiatrist but I have been a practicing clinical physician and have cared for thousands of patients for over 30 years. Every day I see the daily mental and physical obstacles people face in their lives. Rather than pills, herbs, and therapy, I hope Going to God First will become the primary prescription for many of the battles you face. His prescription never fails. God has answers for your problems that will change your life for the better and help to transform you, body, mind, and spirit. He may direct you to healthcare professionals, a new diet, exercise, medication, or therapy to aid you in your journey to wellness. Your journey of good health begins with him. Psalms for Wellness is the second section of this book which will draw you closer to God. King David knew God extremely well. He ascribed to God over 100 attributes. God will reveal insights into his character from Psalms that will give you a glimpse of his glory. Use the second section of the book as a source for individual or corporate prayer.

Principles for the Christian Life

Principles for the Christian Life- Bible Study Edition is a wonderful, practical and valuable resource for everyone who wants to study God's Word! Dr. Gullberg is a devoted student of the Bible, having gleaned much wisdom from his daily personal study of God's Word over many decades. Why write a book like this? Quite simple. To educate the Christian with a “bottom line” format. Hosea 4:6 says, “My people are destroyed by a lack of knowledge.” In Colossians 1:10, Paul prayed that the Colossians would “live a life worthy of the Lord and please Him in every way, bearing fruit in every good work, growing in knowledge of the Lord, being strengthened with all power according to His glorious might so that they would have great endurance and patience…” These two verses, as examples, tell it like it is! Knowledge is the key ingredient to wisdom. This book is meant for deep personal or group Bible study and should be excellent for discussion of practical topics. Though provoking questions are in each section. Part 1 of this book is to simply implement the verses present in the Scripture to direct us on important Christian subjects. It is more than a concordance, which one can find at the end of most any Bible. What one will find in PART 1 are the steering points of the wisdom from the Bible. The topics in PART 1 are the “nuts and bolts” of Christianity. My goal was to keep this book to a “bottom line” level of understanding. Part 2 looks at what is going on in the rest of the world of non-Christendom. In day to day living, I find that most Christians are at best vaguely familiar regarding where other people are coming from in their belief systems. 85% of the people in the world are following other religions. This knowledge should be an impetus for us to not only take a stronger stance on our Christian roots but also be more active in our outreach to the lost. The lost are literally all over the place! They are in India, but also in your neighborhood.

Salmos para tiempo dificiles

Muchas personas pueden preguntarse: "¿Cómo el leer algunos Salmos puede ayudarme cuando estoy pasando por enfermedad o cirugía?" Para responder esta pregunta, debemos entender primero que la mayoría de los Salmos son oraciones a Dios. La Biblia nos enseña que Dios presta tanta atención a la persona que ora, como las palabras que se leen, meditan o hablan. Dios quiere tener una relación íntima con usted , su hijo adoptivo. Él quiere guiarlo y consolarlo a medida que atraviesa por momentos difíciles, así como responder a sus oraciones. Jesús nos enseña en Juan 16:24: “Hasta ahora no has pedido nada en mi nombre. Pide y recibirás, para que vuestro gozo sea cumplido ". Una de las cosas más emocionantes de la vida cristiana es que cuando oramos, Dios nos escucha. Él se deleita cuando acudimos a él con nuestras peticiones y preocupaciones. ¿Quiere paz, fuerza y consuelo? Entonces, busque a Dios a través de la oración. Este folleto contiene recetas de Dios para usted que viene del libro de los Salmos, el cual se encuentra en la mitad de la Biblia.

Whispers That Move Heaven Powerful Life Lessons on Prayer

Sincere or fervent prayer comes with being intentional. It is not for the nominal Christian. The key is to shed our laziness and not neglect our prayer life with the Lord. Though the Lord desires us to always pray in our lives, having a specific prayer time day by day will have a powerful effect. Jesus said, “the spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.” (Matthew 26:41) I would add to that not only is the flesh weak, but the mind drifts when it needs to focus. To be honest, prayer is a daily battle for us mortal weaklings. This book helps to remedy that problem by how it is formatted. The term effective and prayer should go together. Effective means to “pursue a desired result.” I have found that a journal style helps us to be more attentive in our prayers, and God will be praised. We will be filled with joy knowing that our minds are being transformed and becoming more God-centered. We will learn to sit with God and enjoy his fellowship. (Ephesians 2:6) We will renew our prayer life to a time we simply cannot miss. Why a ‘workbook-journal’ style? Because this method teaches you to focus on God with laser-like intention. For example, you will catalogue your prayers on the pages of the workbook. I have found that writing down prayers helps the mind from wandering away from God during a quiet time. Look at King David, who lived 3,000 years ago. Many of the Psalms he authored in the Old Testament are prayers that were sung to God. David was a prayer champion, and he wrote down his prayers for us to learn how to be intimate with God. Would you not want to follow him? This workbook encourages the use of pictures. Adding pictures of special people placed in the book is key. Visualizing our loved ones or important events helps our minds to concentrate on the prayers at hand. No more mental roaming away from what we set out to do. With this book, you will be more aware of answered prayers as well as unanswered prayers. Your persistent prayer petitions will increase in number, and you will find yourself turning into a prayer warrior. What joy and delight that will be. The fact that an infinite God who created the universe and finite creations like us can interact together is indeed a mystery. But prayer does not have to be mysterious. God desires and instructs us to pray. Jesus taught us to pray in Matthew 6:9-13 and Luke 11:2-4, and there are hundreds of prayers for us to emulate throughout the Bible. Several will be discussed later in this workbook. The battle that prevents us from praying is real. Let us take it to heart, not give up, and move forward. Zechariah 4:6 says, “Not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit, says the Lord Almighty.” Since your life is a series of chapters, going forward, you may need to have several prayer books like this one along the way. I sat down in a local restaurant with my fellow Christian brothers, Jack Bell and Chris Booth, many years ago to map out (on a simple napkin) the vision for a book on prayer. Our strategy was clear: to encourage and equip Christians everywhere to pray more consistently, passionately, and effectively. This finished book is the fruit of that humble meeting. My heartfelt prayer is that it will inspire, strengthen, and bless you richly.

The Olivet Discourse stands as one of the most powerful and detailed teachings on prophecy in the New Testament. Found most fully in Gospel of Matthew chapters 24–25, and echoed in Gospel of Mark 13 and Gospel of Luke 21, this message was delivered by Jesus shortly before His crucifixion. Speaking to His disciples on the Mount of Olives, He unfolds a sweeping vision of future events, including trials, judgment, and His ultimate return.
