From the very beginning of the church, Christians have found it helpful to pause for prayer during various times of the day. Whether for morning or evening devotions or other fixed-time prayers, such spiritual respites were deemed essential to worshiping God. Over the years, Christians developed a structure for such moments of worship, keyed to the time of day and season of the year. Part of its genius was the seamless integration of Scripture and prayer. This ancient practice, called the "Daily Office," has experienced a resurgence of use in our time. "Seeking God's Face" is a user-friendly approach to this form of prayer and devotion. Each office includes a psalm of praise, a passage of Scripture, and a brief set of prayers. An introduction to prayer-book use from Eugene Peterson is included to acclimate readers to this form. This edition features 11.5 point type that makes for comfortable reading without straining.

I prayed a lot and asked people who understood the importance of prayer to pray for me as I fought to understand the natural and supernatural battle I was fighting. I asked God to give me and my family the information we needed to be well in every area of our lives. Some days were better than others, but eventually, I became strong enough to walk away from hopelessness and depression and go into the arms of God. He is more real to me now than ever before. I implemented my findings as soon as I understood how to apply them by making changes in manageable ways until I received a breakthrough on a daily basis. Sometimes I had to start over again. I didnt have a medical background, so I went to the Great Physician, our Lord and Savior, to guide me as I embarked on this journey. He is true to His word and was with me every step of the way. To our God, Yahweh, goes the glory!

The new Jewish spirituality lies somewhere between God's elusive presence in our world and our search for authentic language to describe it. Personal journeys seldom have a clear beginning, and they rarely have a definite end. If there is an end to our journey, surely it is one that leads to some measure of wisdom, and thence back to its own beginning. But somewhere along the way, we come to realize that we must know where we have been going, why we have been going. Most of all, we come to understand as best we can the One who sends us on our way. —from the Introduction Rabbi Arthur Green leads us on a journey of discovery to seek God, the world, and ourselves. One of the most influential Jewish thinkers of our time, Green has created a roadmap of meaning for our lives in the light of Jewish mysticism, using the Hebrew letters that make up the divine name: Yod— Reality at the beginning. God as the oneness of being at the outset, before it unfolds into our universe. Heh— Creation and God’s presence in the world. A renewed faith in God as Creator has powerful implications for us today. Vav— Revelation, the central faith claim of Judaism and the claim it makes on our lives. Heh— Redemption and our return to God through the life of Torah and by participating in the ongoing repair of the world. A personal and honest framework of understanding for the seeker, this revised and updated edition of a classic sheds new light on our search for the divine presence in our everyday lives.

"Arise, shine; for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord has risen upon you" (Isaiah 60:1) There are basically three sides to a story: yours, mine and the truth. None may be lying in cases where shared memories tend to serve each person differently. This is primarily because mood and disposition still have their roles to play in works of interpretation irrespective of the understandability of the interpreter. However, works of divine inspiration as this one tend to be an exception somewhat to that rule because the Holy Spirit is usually in charge and in control of such inspired ventures irrespective of the person so moved by the spirit. Having said that, please note that there is only one side to the story in this book and, that side is none but the TRUTH. Considering the fact that I am one person in the world with a very dark past and shambled theological training, I still shudder in awe at the divine involvement in my life for which I am alive and renewed today, to heed to the Ministry which I received in Christ Jesus. The Holy Bible has a proper admonition for each and everyone thus: " take heed to the ministry which you have received in the Lord, that you may fulfill it" (Colossians 4:17) SEEK THE FACE OF THE LORD' is a book that evolved out of a most humble submission to the WILL of God for my life in spite of my escapades and inadequacy. I have therefore been divinely seized contrary to my conscious and involuntary objections to do the work of Gospel dissemination and outreach through divinely inspired combination of songs and attendant books of illumination. This book has nine chapters and is focused on illuminating the life and teachings of Jesus Christ as role model, ideal for God's kingdom life here on earth and hereafter. This book should therefore be read alongside the Holy Bible and the corresponding Gospel songs for each chapter for a greater mental, physical and spiritual discipline. As you get ready to begin a most demanding journey into these pages of spiritual re-awakening, I implore you not to be faint but to arise and shine, because your light has come. This book and its attendant songs contain powerful insight to the teachings of our Lord Jesus that you cannot but, allow the glory of the Lord to rise upon you and rekindle your spirit. Be blessed in Jesus Name. IZUORA RALPH IKECHUKWU (a.k.a EYE-KINGDAZZLE)

"One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to enquire in his temple." -Psalm 27:4, KJV The Psalms are treasures from those who earnestly sought the face of God. They are honest messages of sorrow, joy, praise, and wisdom from real people who experienced real struggles. In the psalmists' words we see their hearts open before God.

For those just beginning to study the Psalms as well as those who know them well and wish to consider them from a new angle, this collection of sermons from one of the greatest preachers of the twentieth century will move your mind to greater understanding and your heart to deeper worship.
