Sé un hombre de fe inquebrantable

by John Osteen

Durante sus 60 años como pastor, John Osteen combinó su extraordinario amor por la gente con una visión de ministerio que él describía mejor que nadie: “Sin límite”. Esta edición no solo incluye parte de los sermones escritos por John, sino también un prefacio y comentarios de su hijo, Joel; los principios de esta fe “sin límites” vienen a acompañar a una nueva generación. Para esos momentos de luchas y tentaciones que todos enfrentamos, esos momentos en que nos sentimos rodeados y atacados, el mensaje de John es sumamente simple –esos son precisamente los momentos para una fe inquebrantable. En este libro, John enseña a los creyentes de hoy las siete cualidades de una fe inquebrantable: 1. Escucha y observa lo que el mundo no puede ver ni escuchar. 2. Ora fervientemente aunque ya hayas conseguido una respuesta. 3. Es más firme cuando no hay señales de la respuesta. 4. Siempre dice: «¡Vamos de nuevo!». 5. Sigue adelante aunque las señales de respuesta sean mínimas. 6. Cree en grande aunque parezca poco. 7. Empieza de la nada y termina haciendo cosas impresionantes por Dios.

“You will have whatsoever you say or whatsoever you have been saying continually. You cannot just talk any way you want to all the time and then suddenly quote God's Word and expect a miracle. It doesn't work that way.
You must train yourself to continually speak and believe God's Word and live it out daily.”

I got this book with the thought of understanding Joel Osteen better. By understanding John Osteen, Joel's father, and getting a glimpse of the spiritual genealogy that has become such a important ingredient in that family's DNA can help me garner more when I read Joel's books. Joel often credits his father in his sermons and books as the originator and himself as the heir to the ministry. After reading this book, I can see why John was and Joel is spiritually successful.

What I noticed is that a lot of the principles Joel preaches and writes on are actually ones taught by his father. In this book, John becomes the teacher. He uses biblical scripture after scripture on each point, so much more than Joel, with the possible exception of his first book. This book is a reference and I will use it many times in the future.

The other point which this book deserves to have mentioned is that on using Elisha and Elijah as his focal points, John illustrates principles in much greater detail than most other books in the inspirational genre. The difference is he not only tells you what you should do, but gives you the formula as to HOW to do it. This book also gives you the signs to watch for when you think you're succeeding or failing.

Overall, this book is a must for the ones that love scripture and watch or read Joel Osteen. I intend on getting other books penned by John Osteen and I recommend this book to just about everyone.

My husband checked this out, but I thought I would listen to it also. Heavily scripture based, Joel Osteen gives good suggestions to men on increasing faith. I thought it was interesting and that women could gain as much as a man from listening to this audiobook.
It wasn't as good as Every Day a Friday, but definitely worthwhile.

I’m so glad I came across this book! It’s a wonderful treasure! I picked up this book thinking it was the author’s account of how he became a man of unwavering faith. Although it’s partly that, it’s actually a “how to” and “why to” book of faith for men. Even though some topics are addressed directly to men, this is a book for Christian men and women.

Becoming a Man of Unwavering Faith is amazingly different than anything I’ve read thus far. John Osteen demonstrated so much trust in God. His faith resembled the faith of numerous prophets, apostles and people of faith recorded in Hebrews 11 and throughout the Bible.

This book encourages, teaches, guides, and inspires. It stirs up your faith for whatever you need or may need in the future. It helped me to reassess and increase my faith levels.

This book would be great for individual study, small groups, and Bible study. It’s a great resource to use when learning about prayer, faith, and Christianity. I’m going to buy extra copies for gifts.

The teaching is straight-forward and strong. Some points are given in a matter-of-faith style, but words are soaked with passion and care. The author really wanted to help Christians receive Bible-kind of faith. If you have a sincere desire for a strong relationship with the Lord, this book will certainly help get you there.

This book would be an excellent Bible companion and guide for new Christians. It’ll assist with starting and helping along the way in the Christian journey. Teachings and testimonies are supported by scripture and lead directly to God and the Bible.

This book is an excellent source for building a strong faith foundation and would save years of study and discovery. And spiritual confidence would be gained to step out in faith much sooner.

This is one powerful book that I highly recommend!

From Goodreads:

During the course of his 60-year ministry, John Osteen combined an extraordinary love for people with a vision for ministry best described in his own words: "No limits." In this hardcover volume not only includes content from John's sermon transcripts, but also a foreword and commentary written by his son, Joel; the principles of this "no limits" faith come alive again for a new generation.
For the moments of struggle and temptation that every man faces, and the times in life when he feels surrounded and under attack, John's message is profoundly simple-those moments are precisely the time for an unwavering faith. In this book, John schools today's believers in seven qualities of unwavering faith:
1. It hears and sees what the world cannot see or hear.
2. It prays earnestly even though it has already heard the answer.
3. It is strong when there is no evidence of the answer.
4. It always says, "Go Again!"
5. It goes on when there's just a little evidence.
6. It believes for the big when it sees the little.
7. It begins with nothing but ends up doing mighty things for God.
Osteen also provides principles for those times when faith doesn't seem to be working. BECOMING A MAN OF UNWAVERING FAITH is a guidebook to stronger faith, from a man who spent a lifetime testing its limits.

My Review: If you have ever wondered what it is like to live a life of unlimted faith then this book explains how. It describes the seven things people do to get the most out of life and how to trust God for everything. People think that faith is something you have but this book also explains that faith is something that you do. It goes into depth of each of the seven steps that you do. This book was short but there is a lot of information packed in this book.This review was originally posted on Adventures in Never Never Land

Go back in time and blow your mind on how Word of Faith preaching started. This is pure faith in its infancy revelation stage, which is still relevant and applicable today.

Just need to take note of specific portions that seem to borderline on works and interpret with care based on other teachings and revelations that are more current.

Nonetheless, this book is awesome if u wanna get a sense of what pure faith is like. It will blow your mind.

I am so amazed at how John Osteen comes straight to the point of what faith is and how we are to walk in it according to the Word of God. I recommend this book. It's open my eyes to some misconceptions I have had over the years about prosperity teachers. Everything we set out hearts to believe must be diligently lined up with and tested by the living, breathing Word of God! And if He said it, it is truth that can be acted on and believed.
