Wayne Cordeiro (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: October 1, 2008

Many believers settle for a spiritual routine that lacks God's presence. But what they truly want, and truly need, is a dynamic, vital, and intimate relationship with God. Here Wayne Cordeiro gently but directly shows readers how to move from routine to relationship--from mundane actions to fresh encounters--by learning to hear Him speak to them through the Bible. Through stories, lessons, and anecdotes, Cordeiro equips readers to listen to the promptings of the Holy Spirit as they read God's Word, enabling them to transform their daily quiet time with the Lord.

This review is from: The Divine Mentor: Growing Your Faith as You Sit at the Feet of the Savior (Hardcover)

Pastor Wayne has done a masterful job weaving in the practice of daily bible reading (self - feeding) with the power of the bible on his own life. This book will get you started on a most powerful spiritual journey and is well worth the price. Even if you already journal, this book will inspire you and give fresh insight. Pastor Wayne's life and ministry are what they are due to his diligent reading of God's word and his open heart to being mentored by the divine ONE. I recommend this book to you without reservation.

If Tiger Woods met you, liked you, and offered to come to your neighborhood golf course and mentor you in golf for 15 minutes ANY DAY YOU ARE INTERESTED, how often would you have time for Tiger?
God offers the Holy Spirit to mentor you from the inspired Word ANY TIME YOU ARE INTERESTED.
Wayne writes from the high tide of creating a ministry of thousands who are mentored by the Spirit daily.
This is not a self-help book. It is a Spirit-help book.
From this teaching I want to be addicted to the fresh breath of God daily.

5.0 out of 5 stars Daily devotions help you fulfill His will., December 21, 2007

By 

Kawailani (Minnesota, USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Divine Mentor: Growing Your Faith as You Sit at the Feet of the Savior (Hardcover)

I have been doing daily devotions and journals since I attended New Hope in Hawaii. My husband used to read bible randomly. Even he seeks for God's words very frequently and knows many scriptures; he did not understand why I tried to have a quiet time just between God and me before I start my day in the mornings. I was sometimes bothered or interrupted and once I missed the timing, it's hard to focus on the Words.

I gifted this book to my husband. He read it in a day. After he understands why, how and when we need to listen to God, he was willing to start own. Now, we individually have quality time with the Lord, share our thoughts together and pray for each other. This book definitely brings peace and blessings to our lives. You will be surprised how powerful this book is!
