Hello Amazing Reader,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s our first post in the new month, so we can still wish each ourselves a happy new month \ud83d\ude03\ud83c\udf89 There are so many blessings God\u2019s laden in this month and I pray it all comes to manifestation for you in Jesus name.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s an exciting review edition today, plus it comes with a little twist because we\u2019re reviewing a review of T.D. Jakes\u2019 new book, \u201cCrushing.\u201d It\u2019s anchored by Pastor Steven Furtick who interviews Bishop Jakes in a relaxed,jovial setting, without loosing the essence of the discourse. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

When you hear T.D. Jakes today, you probably think \u2013successful, effervescent, global man of God who\u2019s got it all together. While you may be right about these current realities, he discusses in this review how at the early years of his ministry, he could barely cater for his family; he preached in a little store -front ; his mother fried chicken and fish just behind the church fence; his resources were so lean that he could not afford a car. You are probably wondering if this describes the same Bishop Jakes you know? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yes, he\u2019s the same one, but guess what? It was just a stage in his life and he shares how some of these experiences crushed him. This brings us to the preoccupation of the book; crushing is only a stage and not a destination. When God wants to bring out the wine in us, he takes us through some crushing just as the vine dresser does with grapes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bishop Jakes encourages believers to admit certain issues\ndid crush them while sharing their testimonies; so that others would know that\nbeing a believer doesn\u2019t mean there won\u2019t be tests, but eventually the scars would\nturn to stars. That is to say, your crushing season may not always be about\nyou-it just may be for the rescue of another person who needs to know his\/her\nsituation is not peculiar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019m tempted to go on and on, but I\u2019ll let you watch<\/a> and be blessed for yourself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I totally enjoyed the video and I\u2019ll certainly get the book soon , I hope you will do likewise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

God’s blessings always,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
