This review is from: Help Lord the Devil Wants Me Fat (Paperback)

This book has to be one of the greatest books written concerning weight loss and how to tear down strongholds that the enemy has built in one's mind by causing one to overeat. By putting thoughts in one's mind to eat when one is not really hungry,the devil deceives unsuspecting Christians by the bondage caused by overeating and not being able to serve the Lord,as one would if he was in better shape. ( I didn't word that right but you will understand what I mean if you will buy the book.) The book is very pratical and awesome. My testimony after reading this book was that I couldn't fast(fasting was the author's recommended remedy to destroy the devils food stronghold in one's mind.you will read about it more in great detail if you buy the book, please don't be put off because of fasting there is nothing to it when you learn how to do it properly and are well prepared for it with pratical suggestions given by the author in this book.) on my churches fast days which was from about 7am to 4pm. But after reading the book I fasted for 11 complete days and there was nothing to it. It was easy for me.I didn't put the whole three phases the author recommends to pratice If i did I would have lost the weight permanently. But now as the Lord wills and working with his Spirit I will enquire of my Lord If it is his will for me to go through the three phases. I encourage you brother or sister in the Lord, If you have a problem with weight control buy this book and I promise you If you work with the Lord and but it's principles to pratice It will have a great impact on your life and change your eating problem forever. It did mine, but I strayed from it but I'm going to go back as the Lord wills, God bless you. Praise the Lord..

5.0 out of 5 stars GREAT BOOK!, July 27, 2000

This review is from: Help Lord the Devil Wants Me Fat (Paperback)

I READ THIS BOOK ABOUT FIVE YEARS AGO WHEN I WAS TRYING TO LOSE WEIGHT. I HAD TRIED EVERYTHING, UNSUCCESSFULLY. I JUST COULD NOT STOP EATING. I HEARD ABOUT THIS BOOK THROUGH MY PASTOR, A WHOLISTIC PRACTITIONER. AS I READ IT I WAS ABLE TO FAST AS IT INSTRUCTED. WHEN I DID NOT READ IT FOR A WHILE I LOST THE DETERMINATION TO FAST. THE BOOK GAVE ME THE ENCOURAGEMENT THAT I NEEDED TO GET THROUGH. I SUCCESSFULLY COMPLETED A 10 DAY FAST. IT WAS SURPRISINGLY EASY. IF YOU NEED ENCOURAGEMENT AND KNOWLEDGE CONCERNING TAKING CONTROL OF YOUR FLESH THEN THIS BOOK IS FOR YOU. MAY GOD BLESS AND KEEP YOU!

This review is from: Help Lord the Devil Wants Me Fat (Paperback)

I read this book about 20 years ago, and it changed my whole attitude toward food. I did the 10 day fast at the end, and my bondage to food was broken. I realized that my body didn't need as much food as I had been putting in it. When I went 10 days without any food and survived, I knew that I could live without seconds and thirds of everything, like I had been eating. I had a cassette tape that went with the book. I listened to it while I slept. I can't remember exactly what was on the tape, I think it was scripture, but it helped to change my thinking, too. I don't know if anybody selling the book here has the tape, too, but if you can get a hold of it, it will probably be a bonus.
