Book review: Guarded by Christ by Heather Holleman

Guarded by Christ is a great book about the fact that God is guarding the lives of His faithful children. The verse referred to is: "God guards the lives of His faithful ones." (Psalms 97:10)
Heather Holleman is presenting practical ways of renewing the mind for the purpose of living strong in the Lord. One of the ways is by adopting righteousness instead of condemnation. We have to declare that we are the righteousness of Christ in God and not to let condemnation steal from us the right we have as heirs of God. Another way is putting on the shoes of peace with which we can stop the fiery darts of the enemy instead of letting ourselves be covered in anxiety, worry and sickness. Having an attitude of hope instead of despair keeps us strong and positive for any challenge that comes our way and open doors for us that otherwise would not be available. Using the Holy's Spirit power is essential in living right and having victory opposed to having self efforts that don't succed and lead to dissatisfaction, disappointment and frustration. Living a crucified life is the thing that keeps us humble and dependent on God, whereas living a self important life is insanity and leads to our failure and failing. Would recommend this book to anyone. I received a copy from the publisher for this review.
