Book Description

October 17, 2000
Miracles Do Happen.  Have you ever experienced a miracle?

Many people who have don't even realize it. Others are simply waiting for their chance to see evidence of God and His angels at work. Whichever category you fall into, you'll be amazed--and transformed--by this eye-opening collection of stories spotlighting God's bold, providential intervention in human lives--just like yours.

Miraculous Guidance.  Timely Provision.  Mysterious Interventions.  Prepare to Believe.

Scripture assures us that God is active in each person's life. All too often, however, we find ourselves doubting this vital truth or believing that God's interest in the details of human experience ended centuries ago.

Yet God's work in our lives--sometimes miraculous, sometimes mundane--is not a reality relegated to the past. His guiding hand still delivers, still protects, still comforts, still provides, and still answers prayer today, just as it did in biblical times.

The Wings of God is a compilation of forty-two such documented stories of God's involvement in the lives of people who need--and receive--a miracle. This compelling collection will give you deeper confidence in God as your deliverer, a heightened level of trust in God for the future, fresh insight into events in your own life that you might have once seen as "coincidences," and a renewed faith in the power of prayer.

Includes True Accounts of:
Physical Encounters with Angels
Heavenly Deliverance from Life-Threatening Situations
Supernatural Answers to Prayer

5.0 out of 5 stars Credible stories of God's intervention/guidance, November 17, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: The Wings of God: Miraculous Stories of Our Lord and His Angels at Work (Hardcover)
Very encouraging stories of God's leading in ordinary /extraordinary circumstances for everyday people. Well-written/ well-organized--modern & ageless stories-- drew my attention to the ways God intervenes that I often ignore. No sensational bizarre stuff. Good family reading--short stories--easily keeps attention of even the younger members of the family.

This review is from: The Wings of God: Miraculous Stories of Our Lord and His Angels at Work (Hardcover)
This book is a great faith encourager! The stories in this book reveal God's love for individuals in a very personal way. God never changes and His love for us is the same as those whose stories are told in this book. God's protection and care through circumstances or sometimes by his angels reveal His never- ending love for his children as he watches over them. I would love to see a sequel as I know there are many, many other untold God stories that by being shared would remind us of God's infinite love and His divine care for his created.
