Dear Friend,The night is darkest just before the dawn . That is true in the world of nature and in God’s working throughout history . We have an incredible opportunity to make a differ-ence in our world . The practi-cal and literal way that you learn this week will equip you to understand the “mystery of the gospel of Christ” and experience the power of that Gospel for daily victory . It is a personal joy to be with each one of you . I look forward to speaking with as many of you as possible dur-ing this week . The fellowship we enjoy together is the result of having the same passion in loving the Lord and in loving one another . Let’s give “perfect greetings” to everyone and enjoy the one-accord power that God will bring .

Through Christ our Lord,

Power for Daily Victory—Conquer Seven Deadly Stresses

This vital resource is the result of five years of study and the promise of Jesus to reveal Himself to those who study all His commands . It arranges the forty-nine com-mands of Christ into seven categories . Each one reveals the deeper causes that will conquer the stresses of anger, guilt, lust, bitterness, greed, fear, and envy . The founda-tion of each command is identified in the Old Testa-ment and is applied to the New Testament epistles .

Daily Success DevotionalExplore the significance of Christ’s commands for

today and apply God’s Word in your life! Because the key to loving God and others is found in the commands of Christ, this devotional focuses on one command per week for forty-nine weeks . This timeless volume is a valuable resource for daily study for the whole family!
