Judy Azar LeBlanc releases I AM THAT I AM - Tracing the Footprints of God  October 26, 2012, Hideaway, Texas

Multi-award winning Christian author, teacher, and lifelong student of the Bible, Judy Azar LeBlanc, proudly announces the release of her latest book - I AM THAT I AM - Tracing the Footprints of God.  I AM THAT I AM is an in-depth biblical study into the knowledge of God and who He is by revealing the eight Covenants given to humanity by God with an in-depth discussion and analysis of the full parabolic, healing, and divine ministry of Jesus Christ.

The author includes an extensive list, as written in the Word of God, of over fifty names and titles of God that reveal His character, divinity, and attributes of His personality.  The reader will be given a new perspective and an intimate understanding of God that will prove to lead the reader into a new understanding and appreciation of who God is, and how much He loves humanity.

With over seventy-five commentaries from renowned biblical scholars, this book offers:
  • A deeper understanding of Scripture, who God is, His character, His attributes, His promises, His Covenants, and His involvement with humanity throughout history are clearly expounded upon through Scripture including the use of Hebrew/Greek root words and meaning. 
  • A comprehensive study of biblical events supported by full color archaeological images of recent excavation findings, historical illustrations, and map images that show relevance to modern day locations to give the reader a full perspective of the impact of God's Covenants, grace and promises to all of humanity.
  • A comprehensive understanding of the spiritual blessings provided by the different dispensations throughout history to include: salvation, forgiveness, redemption, justification, reconciliation, deliverance from the power of darkness, heavenly citizenship, direct access to God the Father, adoption, our inheritance, and the freedom from the law under grace.
Many, maybe even millions seek God on a daily basis, or perhaps just every Sunday in churches, and through various media, but without the knowledge of who God is, how can one come to know Him?  How does one know that he or she is really loved by God, and that God is who He says that He is?  Author Judy Azar LeBlanc answers those questions in full spectrum.  This is a wonderful and enriching book that will remind and bless the Body of Christ, that God is  --- the Great I AM THAT I AM.

WHERE IS MY BRIDE? By Kimberly Miller

The vivid experience of sorrow felt driving down Independence Avenue gripped my heart with untold anguish. Tears soon blurred my view of the desolate and decaying street, as an unknown fury began to rise up from my belly. Anguish had turned to weeping and weeping to anger; anger had then led my weary heart into groaning intercession with the Almighty.

I cleared my eyes and continued to survey the avenue. Prostitutes stood far from discreet at various vantage points, drunks stumbled disarrayed throughout the littered alleys, mothers dragged along numerous children who since birth were sentenced to the cycling mentality of poverty, and at every corner I drove by there stood a church.

God's grief and longing for humanity had become mingled with my own angered discontent with society's brokenness and bondage. I began to cry out to God, asking Him why He was doing nothing about the state of my city, and why He continued to leave the people hurting and without a Shepherd. My fury at the injustice I was viewing, lead me to come all but close to accusing God of doing nothing to save the lost.

And that's when He spoke, gently whispering into the depths of my being, "Child, where is My body? I can do nothing apart from My church. She is My hands and feet. She is My voice that speaks. Where is My church? I am in the midst of My city doing My work, but who is there partnering with Me? She is a spider without legs. No change can be wrought and no souls can be saved, without the hands and feet of My body going forth with My name."

I sat silently stunned; left unable to move, unable to speak, and unable to even weep. When I got home I opened a phone book and began to count the number of churches and ministries throughout the city. I stopped at 943.

I closed the phone book and prayed. I asked God to send forth laborers to His vineyard, and to give us a heart-you and I-for the lost ones He loves.

The other day I stumbled across a ministry that shed a glimpse of hope within my soul. The ministry is called the Pocket Testament League. Their main goal is to lead souls to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ, and to equip others to do the same. Not only does the site offer free devotionals to strengthen and encourage the believer, they also offer the necessary evangelism tools that we as believers need to be His hands and feet to a lost and dying world. The ministry encourages every believer to carry a pocket sized gospel of John, to daily read and share with those we come into contact with. One believer with God's heart for the lost and adequate training in evangelism, can be the tool He needs to set just one soul free.
Let's be His hands and feet.

Author M.J. André writes with compassion in, Apprehended and Apprehending. Based on Philippians 3:10-12, this book has been birthed from the author's own seven-year wilderness season.  It is the author's hopes and sincere desire to bring others to a new life in Him and to true salvation.  The author reveals from Scripture, elaborating on what true Christianity is and what it is not.  In this radical new book, the author delves into what true Christianity really means and what it means to walk after Christ and in the Spirit.  If we are to come into full spiritual maturity, we are to abide in Christ and surrender ourselves completely to His will.

Developed as a guidebook, this book will provide refreshment and answers to questions for those that may be going through their own wilderness experiences.  The reader will find life-giving refreshment, truth and find the truth that is in Christ.  Providing much needed encouragement through the wilderness process, the author notes that this is the only way to God.  We experience the true Christian life when we abide in Him and are changed from the inside out to reflect the character of Christ here on this Earth.  Salvation is not a one-way ticket to Heaven, although, "True Salvation is nothing short of possessing the heart of God the Father," the author emphatically writes.

The work of salvation has many stages, all requiring complete dedication, surrender, perseverance and endurance as one continues on to win the prize as spoken of in Philippians 3:10-12.  The prize is not what many preach from the pulpit that tickles the ears of the hearer; however, the prize is God himself and having the heart of the Father.  Salvation is a gift from the unmerited grace of God bestowed for those who are truly called. 

The author asks-do we truly know Christ and walk with him?  Have we surrendered ourselves fully to know His will?  This is what the Scripture in Philippians speaks of; we live, only to know Him.  The Promised Land and the abundant life do not coming from repeating the sinner's prayer and sitting in church every Sunday.

This book is highly recommended for those Saints that have fully surrendered their life to the Lord, but may need encouragement and guidance as they experience their own wilderness seasons.  One can find deep hope and a greater understanding and maturity in the Lord after reading this book.  A must read for the entire body of Christ!

The Day of Testing - The 11:45 Call by Joel F. Blakely and Brenda Klutz Blakely

10.0 stars on a scale of 10.0 stars

The 11:45 Call by authors Joel and Brenda Blakely is an urgent message to the Body of Christ, exhorting them to stand firm, to be prepared, "to awaken from sleep" (Rom. 13:11) as the authors note and to stand firm in the fight for the faith and the hope of our salvation, Jesus Christ.

The Book of Jude is God's call and instruction to living a godly life in a woefully sinful world. This fascinating Bible study prepares one to beware, be ready and to walk in faith and truth while exalting, "…high the cross of Christ." We are to be ready and prepared by the Word of God, walking and standing upon the truth-for God's Word is truth and inspired by God (2 Tim. 3:16).

In this way, we will be prepared to stand firm in our faith on the day of testing throughout these perilous times. The Book of Jude issues a warning and heed for all those who believe in the Truth to walk in the light and issues a call to those that are living ungodly lives to come back to the Truth, Jesus Christ, before judgment comes.

The authors have prayerfully put together an expository Bible study of the Book of Jude, therefore interpreting each verse by Scripture and not by man's thoughts, as all Scripture is inspired by God (2 Tim. 3:16). This urgent message is of monumental importance to todays believers living in perilous times with evil ever increasing in the world. The focus of this Bible study is to encourage the readers to know and live with the instruction of God's Word, letting them be renewed in their minds to depend on the Word of God as truth. In so doing, the focus of your faith will be strengthened so that you will be prepared and ready to guard against false teachings and doctrines that are now plaguing the church from within. The Word says even the "elect" will be challenged to be deceived. Our command from Jesus is to study and be approved, so that we may stand in the day of testing.

The authors have skillfully and prayerfully gone through each verse of the Book of Jude to reveal the truths, principles and instructions according to the Word of God that give the reader a deeper knowledge of each verse discussed. Study questions are included at the end. This Bible study is highly recommended for personal use and edification or within a small group setting. The reader will be enriched by the use of Scripture throughout the book as this study will aid the reader in maturity and preparing for what is ahead in these last days.
