About The Book - Lessons To Guide Our Lives
As Christians, we sometimes feel overwhelmed and discouraged about the various problems in our lives. Instead of trusting God the way we should, we often wind up berating ourselves and despairing over our failures. The Old Testament tells us about the rights we have inherited as children and heirs to His kingdom. However, we are living in a world where Satan’s goal is to keep us from realizing our full potential and what is rightfully ours. In 1983, I was asked to prepare a lesson for our weekly women’s fellowship meeting. At that time, I presented the message the Holy Spirit had given me regarding the ten areas of discipline: worldliness, words, thoughts, pride, fear, unforgiveness, finances, health, prayer, and perseverance. Shortly after teaching that lesson, the Holy Spirit led me into a three-year study of the disciplines to facilitate my own spiritual growth. He showed me that worldliness, negative words, and negative thoughts are things that come against us; pride, fear, and unforgiveness are negative emotions that come against us. When Satan keeps us in a negative mode, he can affect our finances, health, and prayer life. The good news is that God has given us a tool to help us overcome physical and spiritual battles: perseverance. Several years later when I was feeling overwhelmed and discouraged about various problems in my own life, I heard a message from the Lord: “It’s hard to have a mouse-free house. But with God all things are possible.” He was reminding me of how a little mouse had sneaked in and violated my house for three weeks when I was away on a trip. As I meditated on the “mouse-free house” concept, I remembered the lessons the Holy Spirit had taught me regarding the ten areas of discipline. God was showing me that Satan violates our spiritual houses the way a mouse violates our physical houses. It was then I realized the Lord was compelling me to put His ten disciplines into a book for instruction and meditation. The ten disciplines are divided into four sections. They show us how to fight Satan’s barrage of tricks and traps that his forces use against us. They will help us develop and maintain a spiritual “mouse-free” house.
