Life in Abundance: Mysteries of the Kingdom of Heaven

Life in Abundance is a Christian book showing a clear picture on an abundant life as God intended for us. The book clearly makes one understand God's covenant and know the mysteries of the kingdom. It gives you the inner teachings of the gospel and the spiritual world. The book also contains real life experiences as well as testimonies for the reader to easily relate to as the almighty God is glorified.

In life, we go through different experiences but we often choose to keep quiet or talk about them. I, therefore, chose to put it down in writing to share my experiences to help others who are going through various life experiences. In any situation, whether good or bad there is a force behind it, things don't just happen. The purpose of this book is to get you acquainted with the spiritual world so that you may understand how to fight unseen battles coming from unseen spiritual forces as well as be able to know how these unseen forces operate against humanity and how to overcome them. The book contains scripture backing from the Holy Bible to provide proof of what God’s Word is saying concerning what I have discussed as well as help in building your faith. Please note that the Bible quotations have been picked as they appear in the Bible therefore, nothing has been added or taken away. I have included the Bible version used for every scripture quoted hence, you can always confirm.
