Sanctification Renovation

Book Cover & Preview Text
Runnin’ late to work, cut off in traffic and lost the front row spot.
I tripped, fell and spilled my coffee in the parking lot.
This may sound trivial but I forgot to say . . .
The rent check’s overdue, kids need new shoes and there’s one on the way.
Folgers covers my shirt but a smile covers my face.
Cause only Satan wants to keep me in this place.
I don’t have to hear the angels sing
to know Christ is still King!
The Holy Spirit goes before me, God’s got my back
Christ in me the only defense from Satan’s attack.
There’s a traveler visiting a foreign land –
Just some good ole’ R & R the only thing planned.
He stops into the morning church service and mingles with the congregation.
Boom!! Praise turns to chaos; Christians aren’t welcome in this nation.
Terror is in the air and freedom is under fire.
A Holy Ghost miracle is what survival will require.
Captured as a hostage his future belongs to the confines of a cell.
But there’s a sweet melody echoing through the halls. . . “It is Well”
He still has the strength to sing
Honored to suffer for Christ the King
The Holy Spirit goes before me, God’s got my back
Christ in me the only defense from Satan’s attack.
The trial, the beating, the nails were just the start.
Jesus took the wrath of Almighty God strait to the heart.
The Holy Spirit went before Him, God had his back.
Christ endured and conquered Satan’s attack.
No matter what they do –
No one can take Christ from you.
Even if you’re suffering
take joy, Christ is still King!

About the Book
Sanctification Renovation was inspired by my own journey through the Bible. I have considered myself a Christian for many years, and approximately five years ago, I decided I should know what the Holy Book says. Thus, I read my New International “Student” Version of the Bible from Genesis to Revelation. I did not understand every word, story or situation, nor could I pronounce all the names, but I did manage to get a good general sense of the Word of God.
From my studies, I discovered how God has been reaching out to His people from day one. He has used and continues to use many ways to display His authority, power, and grace. The fundamental principles of the Bible are timeless and transforming. No other book can compare to the Bible and no other being can compare to God, His Word, His Spirit, and His Son. The Christian experience is filled with ups and downs but how glorious to know He will ultimately prevail. Good will triumph evil!
My challenge to anyone who reads this is to test your beliefs and examine what you live for. What would you be willing to die for? Ask deep questions—test your limits, get out of your comfort zone, and open your mind. If you are already a believer in Jesus Christ, I would challenge you to find your unique way to honor your faith and spread Godly characteristics.
If you want to know more about the King of Kings, maybe you should pick up a Bible—it could change your life, death, and eternal fate.
