Call to Action, February 19, 2004
I've been searching to learn more about intercessory prayer and spiritual warfare. Frankly, I've spent a good deal of my Christian life afraid to engage my spiritual authority over evil as it has been given to me through Christ. I was scared by other Christians who warned about making sure you have no unconfessed sins or unknown sins in your life to be protected.Frangipane addresses these issues but in a sensible way without instilling fear in his readers. This book has inspired me finally to action with complete faith in the authority and righteousness of Jesus. This was an eye-opening read that I saw ring true with what I've been seeing in my daily life. Frangipane focuses on the love that Christians must have for Jesus and for one another. I found myself grabbing the phone to share meaningful insights with my sister (accountability/prayer partner), my mother, my husband, and my friends. After reading this book, I went back and was reading again "Praying God's Word" by Beth Moore (another favorite author of mine) and noticed that many of her quotes in that book come from "The Three Battlegrounds". I found information in the Jezebel chapter in helping me relate to some of my friends who are having trouble in marriage. I found wonderful insights into my own behavior. I found a sense of purpose and direction in which was previously lacking in my own personal spiritual warfare. I can't tell you how many times my hair was standing on end and a loud, "AH-hah" came from me. I know I will use this book over and over again.
