I had a great opportunity to be profoundly touched by a great book that I just read called Sun Stand Still. In a nutshell it teaches all of us believers that we can ask impossible things from God and share the belief that He will come through for us.
So many of us simply pray for what we would like to see happen but we lack the confidence in truly believing whether or not that would actually happen. What about asking God for something as impossible for us, like making the sun stand still in the sky? Sound a little on the prayer extreme??
Well that is exactly what Joshua prayed for and with no doubts that God couldn't do it, or if He wanted to...no Joshua spoke it and believed with his whole heart, that God would follow through.
Joshua 10:12 " O sun, stand still of Gibeon, O moon, over the Valley of Aijalon."
What happened next? We'll God extended the day for Joshua so he could eliminate his enemies as they ran for the cover of darkness hoping to get away.
In the book, Sun Stand Still, Steven Furtick teaches believers a simple truth, "If you're not daring to believe God for the impossible, you're sleeping through some of the best parts of your Christian life!"
He teaches you to have "audacious" faith, as any Christian believer should be made of. When you live this way, you'll discover that faith isn't just a Get Out Of Hell Free card. It's the most vital building block of your relationship with God. In this book, he teaches you to expand on your existing faith in a whole new way. In a life changing way! In a way that will show you through many stories how God is still making the miraculous and impossible happen right before our eyes.
I received this amazing book, compliments of WaterBrook Multnomah for my honest review and believe that every Christian should get a copy of this, pastors should begin Bible Studies on this and marriages should pray Sun Stand Still prayers over their partners and families! I would rate this one a stellar 5 out of 5 stars. This book is available in paperback, eBook and CD formats.
