Over the last 500 years, blood-red moons have fallen on the first day of Passover three separate times. These occurrences were connected to some of the most significant days in Jewish history: 1492 (the final year of the Spanish Inquisition when Jews were expelled from Spain), 1948 (statehood for Israel and the War of Independence) and 1967 (the Six-Day War). Every heavenly body is controlled by the unseen hand of God, which signals coming events to humanity. There are no solar or lunar accidents.

Find your special place in the wilderness where God will drench you in his life-giving water - you will break forth with a renewed and courageous spirit.

Best-selling author John MacArthur gives readers a fresh look at how Jesus addressed attacks against the truth. Meek and mild. Politically correct. A great teacher. These are the popular depictions of Jesus. But they aren't the complete picture. Maybe because it's uncomfortable, or maybe because it's inconvenient, Christians and non-Christians alike are overlooking the fierceness of the Savior, His passionate mission to make the Gospel clear and bring people into the Kingdom of God.

Despite our professions of belief, our baptisms, and our membership in the church, many of us secretly wonder, am I truly saved? But Greg Gilbert has a message for the anxious believer - be assured. Assured that your salvation experience was real. Assured that your sins - past, present, and future - are forgiven. Assured that everyone stumbles. Assured that Jesus is not your judge but your advocate. With deep compassion, Gilbert comforts listeners, encouraging them to release their guilt, shame, and anxiety to rejoice in and follow hard after the one who set them free.

Demons are real. If you find this hard to believe, you are not alone. Yet many of the problems you deal with come directly from the realm of darkness. They are demonic. But this is no cause for fear. In fact, there's freedom in knowing you can overcome these problems! Help is available for you. And you do not have to wait for somebody else to deliver you. With Jesus' help, you can free yourself.

For years, we have learned principles of individual spiritual warfare. Yet, as the end times are upon us, the forces of darkness are intensifying their attacks around the world. For this next season, says renowned prophetic leader Dr. Bill Hamon, we as the church must up the ante and learn to fight on a higher level than we ever have, in corporate spiritual warfare. With wisdom, urgency, and keen prophetic insight, Hamon lays the biblical foundation for this final level of warfare and tells how we, as the church, can prepare to work in unity to become the army of the Lord.

“‘Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. Test me in this,’ says the Lord Almighty, ‘and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that you will not have room enough for it.’” — Malachi 3:1 0 In these...

We live in a distracted, secular age. These two trends define life in Western society today. We are increasingly addicted to habits - and devices - that distract and "buffer" us from substantive reflection and deep engagement with the world. And we live in what Canadian philosopher Charles Taylor calls "a secular age" - an age in which all beliefs are equally viable and real transcendence is less and less plausible. Drawing on Taylor's work, Alan Noble describes how these realities shape our thinking and affect our daily lives.

In a world clamoring for certainty, what happens when your spiritual compass spins wildly, and the familiar maps of faith no longer make sense? The Compass Lost offers a radical and compassionate invitation to embrace disorientation not as a spiritual failure, but as a profound pathway to deeper faith.

In Biography of God, Pastor Skip Heitzig draws on his biblical knowledge and personal experience to tackle the universal questions: Is God real, and can he be truly known? Drawing on philosophy and science to unpack the Bible, Heitzig offers answers to these questions and more as he helps you explore what it means to be God's friend and how to know him intimately. As you begin to recognize and remove the limits you've placed on God and you get to know him personally - his nature, his character, and his plans - you will experience a richer faith.

All believers can have powerful divine encounters with the Spirit - not as isolated events but as a lifestyle in which: the supernatural realm is your greatest reality; Jesus becomes real in you; and you are commissioned to demonstrate God’s miraculous power. To experience divine encounters, you need to have a strong understanding of who the Holy Spirit is. Apostle Guillermo Maldonado clears up doubts and false concepts about the Spirit while providing striking testimonies of people transformed by their supernatural encounters.

When many consider modern Christianity, they rightly wonder how we have come so far from the dynamic supernatural community pictured in the Book of Acts. God did not change between then and now. What happened? Could it be that in our quest to be relevant, entertaining, hip, and appealing to modern culture, we have lowered the standard for the Christian life? We need a true revival that restores Christianity to the standard found in Acts Chapter 2.

Alors, réagissons contre les autorités démoniaques, Christ nous en donne la capacité! Savez-vous que des forces maléfiques combattent contre nous, que nous en soyons conscients ou non? Comment les démasquerons-nous? Comment nous défendrons-nous efficacement?

The last thing Jesus said before he left this earth was that it was better for him to go so the Holy Spirit could come. Why did Jesus make such a shocking statement to his disciples? Because the Holy Spirit provides with you power! The Holy Spirit’s present-day ministry is actually better than the limited ministry of Jesus on Earth. Jesus was only in one place at a time. But the Holy Spirit is in you and every believer, equipping the body of Christ to do the works of Jesus!

Know why you believe. Pass on what you've experienced. Many Christians are unsure about what they believe and why. They may wonder if their faith is meaningful and credible. Because of this, they struggle with passing on a relevant Christianity to their families and friends. That’s why Josh McDowell and his son, Sean, have created this comprehensive yet easy-to-understand handbook.

We live in a time of remarkable discovery. The world of quantum physics is revealing that the subatomic, “energetic” level of creation relates directly to our health, both physically and emotionally.
