DON'T CHEAT THE BUTTERFLY: A Battle, A Strategy, and A Mind Transformed:
"This is an interesting book. It is about spiritual warfare. In the book Kristen tells the account of her son Zachary's demonic attack. She relays their struggles and their ultimate victory in the spiritual realm. I really liked the lists at the end. "

DON'T CHEAT THE BUTTERFLY: A Battle, A Strategy, and A Mind Transformed:
"2 quotes that resonated with me:
1) Perhaps the butterfly is proof that you can go through a great deal of darkness, yet become something beautiful- unknown 2) He had asked God not to remove him from his situation even one day before he would come out " Read more of this review » |

“We may say, ‘God works all things together or good.’ But if we are not waiting with expectation for our ashes to turn to beauty, this remains head knowledge—not a reflection of our faith in a God who works the impossible on our behalf, simply because He loves us.”
― Who Do You Say I Am?: Overcoming the Spirit of Identity Theft
― Who Do You Say I Am?: Overcoming the Spirit of Identity Theft
“It is a weapon of spiritual warfare to rejoice in the Lord, in full confidence of what God will produce from your darkness, and in the face of insurmountable evidence to the contrary.”
― Who Do You Say I Am?: Overcoming the Spirit of Identity Theft
― Who Do You Say I Am?: Overcoming the Spirit of Identity Theft
“We are not meant to come through our battles as merely survivors. We are meant to come off the battlefield as victors, and to lead others out to victory, as well.”
― Who Do You Say I Am?: Overcoming the Spirit of Identity Theft
― Who Do You Say I Am?: Overcoming the Spirit of Identity Theft
“Have you ever experienced something in your life you never thought would touch you or your family? Have you ever felt like, ‘God! I thought we were friends, you and me? I thought you loved me. You don’t even seem to be acting according to You Word!’ …I have.”

“We may say, ‘God works all things together or good.’ But if we are not waiting with expectation for our ashes to turn to beauty, this remains head knowledge—not a reflection of our faith in a God who works the impossible on our behalf, simply because He loves us.”

“Holding an expectation of God actually honors Him. A heart of faith-filled expectation says, ‘I know You are good. I know You are all-powerful. I know You are a loving Father and a faithful friend, and I anticipate You being just that.”
― Who Do You Say I Am?: Overcoming the Spirit of Identity Theft
― Who Do You Say I Am?: Overcoming the Spirit of Identity Theft
“My focus had to be on God and who He is, not on the enemy and what he was doing. Darkness feeds on attention and fear, and I wasn't going to offer it any nourishment.”
― Who Do You Say I Am?: Overcoming the Spirit of Identity Theft
― Who Do You Say I Am?: Overcoming the Spirit of Identity Theft
“When you are going through a dark time, one side effect can be to forget the power and the goodness of God. When God isn’t doing what you think He should, it is easy to focus on the problem, and it suddenly becomes larger than the solution—which is God Himself.”
