Warfare by Tony Evans

Here is the book summary:

You’re at war. Are you winning?

Your fight is not with the problems you can see—depression, a broken marriage, addiction, or financial troubles. These are just the symptoms, the true disease—the true battle—is against the devil and his armies. But the devil’s not afraid of mere humans like you and me. So how are we supposed to fight? More importantly, how are we supposed to win?  

Warfare is a guide to fighting the battles that matter. In it, you’ll learn:

·        to identify how spiritual warfare is impacting your soul, family, church, and culture.

·        who the armies are and what role they play—God, angels, demons, and the devil

·        how to use the arsenal of spiritual weapons God provides

·        how to claim the victory God has already won.

When we fight the right battles with the right weapons, fear gives way to courage, futility gives way to purpose, and failure gives way to victory.

And now, my review:

Pastor Tony Evans does it again with Warfare.  The thing I love about this book is that it is Scriptural.  It helped me to focus on the Spiritual Warfare that I face every day.  It opens my eyes to the war going on around me each and every moment.  How to identify it and the armor pieces to have in place for the battle.  It talks about the REAL battle behind all the outward appearances.  It goes along with all the other books I’ve been reading about the Armor in the past 2 years and it’s a great addition to my library on this topic.  And having a physical book is a blessing because then I get to make notes in it.  I highly recommend this book.

The Winter War by Priscilla Shirer with Gina Detwiler

Here is the book summary:

Two years ago, the Prince Warriors lost one of their own, but now they must stand firm . . . because death is coming once again. In this sequel to Priscilla Shirer’s best-selling trilogy, the Prince Warriors return to Ahoratos to find it bare and dangerous. The Winter War is upon them.

And now, my review:

My family was SOO blessed to see this book come out!  We are HUGE fans of ALL of the Prince Warrior books and find great enjoyment reading them aloud, together as a family.  The Winter War is no exception.  We dove right in and picked up the characters like being reunited with friends.  What a journey this book took us through.  There are so many things that we can face in our lives and reading fiction that encourages and strengthens our walk with the Lord through it is a monumental advantage.  “We have all that we need.”  I pray these authors are led by the Lord to write more.  I believe this type of writing is severely missing in children and young adult literature and would love to see more of it in the future for the generations and for the Kingdom.

Fervent by Priscilla Shirer

Here’s the book summary:

You have an enemy . . . and he’s dead set on destroying all you hold dear and keeping you from experiencing abundant life in Christ. What’s more, his approach to disrupting your life and discrediting your faith isn’t general or generic, not a one-size-fits-all. It’s specific. Personalized. Targeted.


So this book is your chance to strike back. With prayer. With a weapon that really works. Each chapter will guide you in crafting prayer strategies that hit the enemy where it hurts, letting him know you’re on to him and that you won’t back down. Because with every new strategy you build, you’re turning the fiercest battles of life into precise strikes against him and his handiwork, each one infused with the power of God’s Spirit.

New York Times bestselling author Priscilla Shirer, widely known for her international speaking, teaching, and writing ministries, brings her new role from the 2015 film War Room into the real lives of today’s women, addressing the topics that affect them most: renewing their passion, refocusing their identity, negotiating family strife, dealing with relentless regrets, navigating impossible schedules, succeeding against temptation, weathering their worst fears, uprooting bitterness, and more. Each chapter exposes the enemy’s cruel, crafty intentions in all kinds of these areas, then equips and encourages you to write out your own personalized prayer strategies on tear-out sheets you can post and pray over yourself and your loved ones on a regular basis.

Fervent is a hands-on, knees-down, don’t-give-up action guide to practical, purposeful praying.

And now, my review of this book:

This book is a great read and follow up to the movie, “War Room”.  If you haven’t seen it, I highly recommend that you do it this weekend!  The idea of Spiritual Armor is talked about in Ephesians 6 and it’s something we are to put on each and every day of our lives because Ephesians 6:12  states that our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.  In this book Priscilla walks us through each area of our lives where we can stand guard in prayer with our armor on and be ready to battle the attacks coming at us.  Whether you are young or old, single or married, a parent or not, this book is a great growing guide in this needed area in a believer’s life.  Check it out today along with other great reads by this author.

The Prince Warriors and the Unseen Invasion by Priscilla Shirer

Here is the book summary:

In this second book in The Prince Warriors trilogy, the Prince Warriors face new challenges on earth and in the unseen realm of Ahoratos. The enemy, angry about his last defeat, is targeting them with weapons and tactics they had never imagined, including the flaming Olethron. The kids must turn to Ruwach and the Source, who can give them more pieces of armor to help them stand strong against this deadly threat.

And now, my review:

Wow, the second book in the series and what a great adventure. Full of the characters from the first with more experiences with them. And some added additions to the mix. Seeing played out the importance of the armor and their job. There were great drawings that kept us reading and intrigued.  And long after the book, I'm still pretty creeped by "Stella"...  It makes me want to stay away from butterflies. (~Smiles) The Word says that the enemy can disguise himself as light...  Creepy but we, as believers, have everything we need!!. Praise the Lord. You'll want to check out this series. A great read aloud that creates great discussion and imagination that keeps going beyond the book.
