It’s beneficial to look back and remember the good and learn from the bad. In order to plow a straight row, we must fix our eyes on a point far out in front of us. Use this time to see if your life is going in the direction the Lord wants it to. If it’s not, then there needs to be some changes. It’s foolish to keep doing the same things expecting different results. Ponder the path of your feet today, and take the appropriate steps.

Receive Jesus as Your Savior
Choosing to receive Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior is the most important decision you’ll ever make!
God’s Word promises, “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation” (Romans 10:9,10). “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved” (Romans 10:13).
By His grace, God has already done everything to provide salvation. Your part is simply to believe and receive.
Pray out loud: Jesus, I confess that You are my Lord and Savior. I believe in my heart that God raised You from the dead. By faith in Your Word, I receive salvation now. Thank You for saving me.
The very moment you commit your life to Jesus Christ, the truth of His Word instantly comes to pass in your spirit. Now that you’re born again, there’s a brand-new you.
Receive the Holy Spirit
As His child, your loving heavenly Father wants to give you the supernatural power you need to live this new life.
For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened...how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?
Luke 11:10-13
All you have to do is ask, believe, and receive!
Pray: Father, I recognize my need for Your power to live this new life. Please fill me with Your Holy Spirit. By faith, I receive it right now. Thank You for baptizing me. Holy Spirit, You are welcome in my life.
Congratulations—now you’re filled with God’s supernatural power.
Some syllables from a language you don’t recognize will rise up from your heart to your mouth. (1 Cor. 14:14.) As you speak them out loud by faith, you’re releasing God’s power from within and building yourself up in the spirit. (1 Cor. 14:4.) You can do this whenever and wherever you like.
It doesn’t really matter whether you felt anything or not when you prayed to receive the Lord and His Spirit. If you believed in your heart that you received, then God’s Word promises you did. “Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them” (Mark 11:24). God always honors His Word—believe it!
Please contact me and let me know that you’ve prayed to receive Jesus as your Savior or be filled with the Holy Spirit. I would like to rejoice with you and help you understand more fully what has taken place in your life. I’ll send you a free gift that will help you understand and grow in your new relationship with the Lord. “Welcome to your new life!”

Living in the Balance of Grace and Faith
Taking on one of the biggest controversies of the church, the freedom of God’s grace verses the faith of the believer, Wommack reveals that God’s Power is not released from only grace or only faith. God’s blessings come through a balance of both grace and faith.
Addressing many of the misconceptions believers are taught in the church today, this book opens up the Scriptures revealing the vital connection between grace and faith. Many believers think they walk in both grace and faith when actually they are misusing one or both of these principles. Andrew addresses:
• Some believers willingly sin believing God’s grace will cover them, while the blessing of grace is not to sin, but to release guilt and condemnation when they make a mistake.
• Other believers think they must “work” their faith by ritualistic prayer, confession, or Bible study. Although all these things are good, Jesus Christ set believers free from works of the law. God wants a relationship where He can communicate directly to each believer.
• Grace and faith work together. When believers receive the unmerited favor or grace of God, they can release their faith without doubt or reservation and receive God’s blessings.
Wommack, in his logical, practical style, brings believers back on track in their Christian walk through living in the balance of grace and faith.

The Believer’s Authority
The controversial subject of the authority of the believer in Christ is widely discussed in the church today. Andrew Wommack brings a fresh perspective to this important spiritual truth that may challenge everything you’ve been taught including:
• If believers have been given authority, then when, how, and toward what should it be exercised? Don’t assume the answer; discover the true battleground, and learn how to recognize the real enemy.
• Most people believe God created our enemy, Satan, but did He? Understanding the answer will set you free to exercise your authority as a believer.
• Is spiritual warfare, as taught in many churches today, valid? Can believers use their authority to fight the devil and his demons in the air, or is the real battle in the mind? The answer is an important prerequisite to winning spiritual battles.
Digging into the Scriptures, Andrew reveals the spiritual significance of your choices, words, and actions; and how they affect your ability to stand against the attacks of Satan and to receive God’s best. Discover the powerful truths behind true spiritual authority and begin seeing real results.
