''This Is The Day''

About the Book

Twenty years ago, a young pastor began keeping a diary of the great moves of God’s Spirit in his family and church. He saw mountain-moving miracles and dynamic answers to prayer. Month by month, he wrote down the prayers, the petitions, the headaches and heartaches. Always,he found victory through the One who lives in him, and who lives in each of God’s children! This devotional will remind you every day that as the Psalmist wrote, “This is the day the Lord hath made, let us rejoice and be glad in it!”
