Book Description

Publication Date: March 2005

How To Live and Not Die! A Down-to-earth guide for getting rid of problem areas in your life by putting God's power to work for you. God doesn't want you to be sick...or to have any financial, emotional, social, spiritual or physical problem. But you've got to learn to do things His way! * After you worship and praise God, you have the right to ask Him for any- thing. * If you'll make up your mind, once and for all, that the life is in the Word of God, you won't have to suffer any longer. * Your body doesn't care what God tells you. It will rise up and demand what it's craving. You have to tell your body to obey God's Word! * Your faith can work for your children and for your spouse. * Many good Christians have died before their time. They believed in God and loved Him, but they didn't believe God scripturally. * If you have the Word of God in your heart and if you know how to say what God says in His Word, God will send you on a mission to do things for Him to cause people to live and not die.

4.0 out of 5 stars Going Beyond Tradition, September 23, 2000

By 

George Ambrose (New York) - See all my reviews

This review is from: How to Live and Not Die (Paperback)

It is sad if we believe when God created us, He would place us in an unstable realm to exist, to be subject to disease, weakness, and dying, without an empowering ability to overcome them and live free from their effects. This practical understanding by Norval Hayes leads us into experiencing, not just knowing, by believing and putting application to the scriptures. I promise you this, "Jesus is Lord. He will perform in you what Norval reveals in His book." Why? God is immutable and cannot lie. But you are mutable, and can change. Your answer is nearer than you believe. Buy the book, it will help you know... You will live and not die.

5.0 out of 5 stars It's not Hocus Pocus!, March 31, 2005

By 

Matt Perdue "mojosiah" (North Carolina, USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: How to Live and Not Die (Paperback)

I've read and heard many many different teachings/preachings for and against the use of faith and the expection to believe in a specific result, however this book is a refreshing and straight forward display of truth and truth explained.

I have personally been involved with several different episodes where people were praying and speaking the Word of God, and they didn't receive what they were praying for. I have also personally experienced great manifestations (both instantaneous and gradual) of the healing/delivering power of God. This leads some to take a stance that God is arbitrary, and "Faith teachers" are promoting demi-god theology, etc., etc. The problem with taking this stand is that you would have to dub Paul, James, David, John, Abraham... oh and JESUS a heretic for they're bold and unflinching messages of tenacious trust in the promises of God.

Norvel Hayes, in "HOW TO LIVE AND NOT DIE", does a masterful job of teaching from the Bible why God's Word is everything, and how God has invested everything in His Word. I was greatly helped in understanding why I received sometimes, but how I would sometimes simply stop meditating on what God said, and listen to other people, and therefore not receive what I had originally confessed.

Hayes reveals testimony after testimony of the goodness and power of God in action. There is even an example of a man who was about to die, but his wife wouldn't quit reading and proclaiming the scriptures over him continually. At that moment his condition began to change, and because of her peseverance in action on the truth, he did live!

A must read for the one willing to Hope.
