Making It in Perilous Times
Rev. Dr. Adewumi Adewuyi
How to stand, thrive and shine as a believer in the last days through knowing God, His Word, prayer, faith and the leading of the Holy Spirit.
About this book
Certainly, before the return of Christ, we will face perilous times, for these are indeed the last days. Yet, as children of God, we always have a pathway to escape. God is clearly distinguishing His people from the world, and our assurance is rooted in the unchanging nature of God and His eternal word. Even in such times, God’s intent for you remains unchanged. As stated in Psalm 37:18-19, "The Lord knows the days of the upright, and their inheritance shall be forever. They shall not be ashamed in the evil time, and in the days of famine they shall be satisfied."
