We all tell a story as we walk through the pages and chapters of our lives. Mine began in Farmersville, a small Texas town outside of Dallas. In those early days of my youth, I attended the great tent revivals of the 1950s. The atmosphere in these services was electrifying as the glory of God fell upon the place.I witnessed unbelievable miracles of healing; some happened in my own family. These experiences caused a longing to know God more intensely. I wanted to be used by Him and obey His every command, no matter how out of the ordinary His directions might be.Each chapter of this book is filled with life lessons to help build your faith and encourage you to do what God asks of you. As you do, watch Him open supernatural doors that men cannot open or close.Travel with me to a hospital room where a young man lies in a coma on his deathbed. Watch God bring him back to life. Leaving pride behind, stand up with me in a busy restaurant and get the attention of all present. Speak a word of encouragement to a military troupe about to leave for war.Follow my footsteps through the sands of Egypt and see what Joseph saw. Stand in awe as you explore the ancient archeological ruins of Petra in southern Jordan. Travel with me to the land of biblical Israel and walk where Jesus walked. Go with me to Italy and stroll through the frozen city of Pompeii, buried under the volcanic ashes of Vesuvius. Experience the magnificence of France, England, Belgium, Germany, Switzerland, and many more. Let's go to the busy streets of New York City, home of Lady Liberty. Dine with me and with the rich and famous in Hollywood.In every place, God is always present with a lesson to be learned. I have lived a colorful life, to say the least. Each chapter of my life is filled with events, which I hope will inspire you and build your faith as you travel down life's highways.

This is a study book, a research book. It is about Anunnaki in the Bible. The sources are given on each page as needed. It is a little over one hundred thirty-eight pages. The first few chapters are all about the evidence and sources, and as the book develops, opinions begin to be given built on that. And it is the evidence and sources that give the opinions their validity, such as Anunnaki are a race of extraterrestrials from another planet. If you want to know if ETs exist, you have got to read this book.As you read, you will also find the Anunnaki are inextricably part of the overall message of the Bible. Ironically, it is the Anunnaki who give validity to that message. If you read this book, it will expand your ideas about reality in ways you probably never dreamed of because that is what learning about ETs in the Bible does.

Down south is where you can experience God's amazing grace and mercy in a way you never thought possible because Egypt is not only a place of deliverance but also a place of refuge for all those who trust in the Lord to bring about the best and the greatest calling on your life. Why the South? Why Egypt? will not only give you a different perspective on life's trials and darkest moments but will also transform your mind and set you on the right track for a victorious future

My name is Richard Smyth, and this is my story. I was raised from ten sisters and six brothers, and yes, I did have a mother at the time I was being raised up. I was never good at school, so I did quit it. I was too young to work, so I tried to get in the army, but since I was too young, I had to get my mother's permission.The army took me, but that did not last long at all. They said to me, "You have to go back home."I said, "Why?"They said to me, "All your brothers are at war, and we have to leave one home so that the last name must go on."So they sent me back home and said, "We're sorry, son. Maybe some other time."When I got back home, I got a job at Ford Motor Co. I stayed there for five years.Now I am married and have five wonderful kids--three girls and two boys--but life has its ups and downs. Again I was working and taking care of my kids and taking care of my wife too. I said to God, "When is it going to stop?" He never answered me. Any time I was going by in my life, it got even worse in my life. I started asking, "How can I stop feeling the way I do?" I was driving down the road, hoping when I go through this red light, it would be all over, but nothing happened, so again I yelled out to God and said, "Take me from this miserable life," and ran through the red light. Again nothing happened.Then something happened to my life. There was a call from the police. They told me I needed to come in and give my statement, so I did. The police had no evidence on what happened; it was hearsay--she said, he said. But don't get me wrong, this was my way out of this life. So I took it, and before I knew it, a new life started.I went to prison for ten years and loved every bit of it. I went back to school every day for eight hours and took up A A, N-A classes . I even took up Bible classes too. As I graduated from all the courses, I had a lot of time on my hands now. I started praying to God, "What do you want me to do?" I then started looking through the Bible and found my days and nights were going by fast.Next day I went to the library to learn more about this man they called Jesus. Before I knew it, I was reading all kinds of Bibles.From the time I got locked up, I never once forgot about my kids. Every day I wrote to each one and told them, "I love you all, but God has a mission for me."The next day I was led to go back to the library and get some Bible off the shelves, and I did. As I was reading, my heart told me to write it down, so I did for about ten years. Now everything is on scripts. It was about ten thousand pages.Then I met this man, and he told me, "This is way too many pages. You need to break it down some."So I did. Then I let this man look at what I had left. He said to me, "Break it down more."Now I was getting so flabbergasted. I said, "What are you doing to me?"The man told me, "You just got to trust me. I know what I'm doing. If you send all of your paperwork in, they will throw it away. It is too much for them to read."So again I watered it down for them to read. I got done; the man said it's ready. So I put all my scripts away and waited for God. God granted my parole and sent me home to my kids, where I finished this book. It was in 2017 when I got done with it. I sat on it for five years, then my dreams started for about a week, the same dreams over and over. So I sent it to the Christian Faith Publishing Inc.

Keepsakes: The Heart Series is a journey from fear into freedom, written for women everywhere who struggle with never being good enough to be loved. It is my story, but it is also the story of so many like me, searching for confidence and peace.I remember thinking, Lord, it is so unfair if you return when I am having a bad day or I'm not being as good as I should be or if I didn't score enough points that day to get into heaven. Like so many, I lived in subtle fear that my life was judged on an invisible scale, with each deed being measured against perfection.Once I understood, when I accepted Christ, God's son, into my heart, I was saved; I was going to heaven! I could never be good enough--on my bad days or my good days--to get into heaven, but Christ inside me could. That's when I stopped focusing on myself and my performance, and I started understanding who God was.And I now get to lean on, depend on, talk to, and cry with my King every day on my special journey of life. He knows my every thought, my every motivation, my every deed; he knows my ugly, and he still loves me. Not like the love from childhood, where I had to be perfect to be accepted, but an unconditional, never-ending love. He walks hand in hand with me through every season--no scales, just a hand holding mine.My purpose in writing is simply this: that you who believe in God's Son will know beyond the shadow of a doubt that you have eternal life, the reality and not the illusion. And how bold and free we then become in his presence, freely asking according to his will, sure that he is listening. And if we are confident that he is listening, we know that what we have asked for is as good as ours. (1 John 5:13-15)

A story of a family from Italy who came to America and led many to Christ as they established a home and business for themselves.

Everyone has a story, and everyone's story can be a testimony of God's goodness. Whether you're a believer of Jesus Christ or not, the stories told in Grace and Mercy can happen to anyone. The stories are about seven different women named Hope, Joy, Faith, Patience, Temperance, Justice, and Love. Each story is shared with scripture reflections and a prayer to allow the reader to reflect on their own situation involving love, relationships, infertility, infidelity, mental health, verbal abuse, and/or physical abuse. Prepare to be taken on a journey through the lives of these seven women and see how the Lord's Grace and Mercy turned it around for them. What do you think will be next for them? What's your story? Can you relate to any one of these women? How will you trust God for His grace and mercy to bring you out? Has God's plan for you been clear?

Breaking Free from the Shackles of Witchcraft is a powerful and dynamic book for everyone or anyone who has been held captive by this wicked and evil principality named witchcraft. The Bible is clear; it is God's desires to see all of us live and operate out of good health and prosper even as our souls prosper in Him (see 3 John 2).And this book offers powerful spiritual warfare knowledge and insights that are taken from the Word of God and guided by the Holy Spirit to help you live a healthy, happy, and successful life, free from the shackles of witchcraft, in Jesus' mighty name.Friends, witchcraft can only be overpowered through the powerful Word of God and an obedient life in Him. Keep reading this book to learn exactly how I became free from the shackles of witchcraft that had caused severe and prolonged sleeplessness for several years of my life. Many, including believers, have turned to the harmful temporary remedy of drugs and other forms of self-help medications while others--like myself in the past--have gone to the enemy, Satan himself, ignorantly for help.It is only the truth that will set the captives free in the mighty name of Jesus the Christ (John 8:32).Therefore, Breaking Free from the Shackles of Witchcraft is a must-read book as it speaks the absolute truth about the author's attacks, captivity, and victorious deliverance through the Word of God.

The Morning After is a book inspired by a play I wrote in the '70s. This book is based on events that could happen in a person's life if the Rapture of the church took place.The Rapture is an event that could happen at any moment. According to Bible prophecy, nothing is left to fulfill that would keep Jesus Christ from coming back to take his children home.In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye. (1 Corinthians 15:52)For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first. Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so, shall we ever be with the Lord. (1 Thessalonians 4:16-17)This book is fiction, but it is written around true events of the book of Revelation and end-time prophecy. It is about a man, Charles "Charlie" David Dalton. Its setting is in a small town called Green Clover, Tennessee (fictional).Charlie has found himself left behind after the Rapture of the church. The book takes you through events of the Great Tribulation that Charlie and others must endure because they, too, have been left behind.This book will take you through the seven years of the Great Tribulation with all the heartbreaks, sorrow, pain, and agony of this time period. The characters in this book find themselves fighting for their lives and their struggles of being Christians during the Great Tribulation.My prayer is that you will open your heart and allow God to touch you with the words of this story. The tone of this book is very mild compared to what is really going to happen during this time. There is no way one can actually capture the events that will unfold during the Great Tribulation. One would definitely not want to be on the earth during this seven-year period the Bible speaks of as the Great Tribulation.Remember, you do not want to find yourself in the position that Charles "Charlie" David Dalton found himself on "the morning after."

The earth, however reluctantly, yields its secrets to archaeologists of Josiah Adams's caliber. But when an unorthodox book dating from a forsaken past comes to light during one of his digs, bureaucracies and social critics prove less accommodating. Josiah's discovery pulls back the curtain on a lost age when truth was true and lies were not, when self-interest had its limits and faith had not yet been perverted and discredited. But is anyone prepared to reconsider that the past may have been more honorable than anyone wants to remember and more noble than the world that has replaced it? Or is the world still unprepared for the counterrevolutionary ideas the earth-shattering book reveals?

There is an old legend talking about Mother Pelican striking her chest with the beak to feed her young with her blood in the time of the famine to prevent them from dying of starvation.Another version was that Mother Pelican was feeding her chicks who were on the brink of death to revive them with her blood for the cost of her own life.We can clearly see why the early Christians adopted it to symbolize our loving Redeemer, Jesus Christ, who sacrificed His life on the cross, whose blood is the price of our salvation and everlasting life.Moreover, our Savior still feeds us with the Eucharist, where He resides body, blood, soul, and divinity. What a privilege.In this little book of poetry, the author is confessing her love and giving thanks to Him who didn't hesitate to show His love for His children on the wood of the cross. He died in the most horrible death we can imagine. He suffocated so we can breathe easy and free in assurance of salvation in joy of living our life in Him, with Him, and for Him. He is the Priest, Altar, and Lamb of sacrifice. He is First and Last, Alpha and Omega.We ought to love Him with our whole heart.Every poem comes from the deep within the heart, blooms out of love for Him, arises from the faith, and hopes to bring a little light to our darkness.

Write what you see in a book and send it to the seven churches, to Ephesus and to Smyrna and to Pergamum and to Thyatira and to Sardis and to Philadelphia and to Laodicea.-Revelation 1:11 Who were these churches? Who were these people? Who was saying this was to be done? Why did the Lord Jesus Christ want to send these churches a letter? What was happening in their lives that they needed to hear from Him?Come with me and let's turn back the pages in time. This book will explore and survey the scriptures to find answers to these questions, as well as some other historical information. All scriptures are God-breathed and are useful for instruction, conviction, correction, and training in righteousness so that the man of God may be complete and fully equipped for every good work. I explore the connections the letters have to the culture and history of the people and the times they lived in. The letters were written to them, but the same letters are written for us.Let's open the Word of God together and see what He has in store for us as we learn to walk in His way, growing in faith and strength as disciples equipped for every good work and word according to His purpose. The book will take the reader on a journey - a survey of the things that were, things that are, and the things to come - that John, the beloved disciple, recorded for us. Come with us on the journey through the pages of scripture and time. Who were our brethren from long ago, whom Jesus wrote to? How and why do these letters matter to us?

This book is to let the reader understand more about the words in the Holy Bible. It starts out with a word. Then a question is asked what the word means, then it is given an answer.

Jesus talked of these words that are in the Holy Bible. The verses in this book are from the English Standard Version Bible.

Through my trials and tribulations, God gave me my identity. I hindered my walk and relationship with God by leaning on my own understanding. Although, as a child, the pain I endured was out of my control, as an adult, the majority was based on the choices I made and the signs I willingly ignored for decades. I blamed others for my lack of love. I was miscomprehending, seeking love from individuals that only comes from God, the Creator. It was my iniquity; it caused the separation between God and me, which hindered my blessings from him. It was also God's grace that helped with the brokenness that crippled and tormented me throughout my life. He rescued me by transforming my circumstances into the center blocks I needed to climb out of the hole I was buried in. My foolishness caused me to make lifelong decisions based on temporary issues. He should have been my ultimate choice. When I was tested, my afflictions bent and twisted the vessels attached to my heart, but God didn't allow me to flatline.He was the guiding force I needed when I thought I was too broken to be repaired. He rebuilt and molded me to be used for his glory. God's love, through my tests and trials, matured and strengthened me. The things sent to destroy my peace were no competition to the mind-regulating God I serve! This book was written in inspiration to my God, Lord, and Savior, Jesus Christ. He deserves all the praise and honor, and without Him, it wouldn't be me. The blueprint and directions of God's Word are the recipes to all salvation. Above all, I pray that you, too, will understand the importance of obedience and the relationship God desires us to have as we're reconciled with Him.
