The Promise of a Sound Mind: God's Plan for Emotional and Mental Health
The Lord has promised His people power, love, and a sound mind.
God’s design is for you to live life in His power, have strong
relationships, and have a mind that is at peace and filled with joy.
Yet life is filled with things that cause stress, break down
relationships, and rob us of joy. For those who look to God’s
design, joy becomes the strength to endure, and the scriptures
give us the path to thrive in every circumstance. The Lord doesn’t
merely want you to endure life, but to live it abundantly. The
abundant life is not dependent upon circumstances.
Learn how to reprogram your mind into positive ways of thinking
and overcome negative attitudes and behaviors. Whether you
have deep rooted struggles or want to experience joy on a deeper
level, this book covers the truths every person should know.
A godly attitude changes everything, and if you live by God’s
principles, the abundant life is yours. Instead of having an attitude
dictated by your circumstances, explore the Bible’s plan for a
joyful attitude that overcomes your trouble. Don’t live outside of
God’s promise!

A Christian approach to dealing with mental issues such as stress, forgiveness, anger, and other problems. I found it repetitive.
Read
June 19, 2016The first book I read by MR SNIPES was I CALLED HIM DANCER, and it remains one of my all time favorite stories. Therefore, you may be surprised to know that MR SNIPES is not only a great fiction writer, but non-fiction write as well. THE PROMISE OF A SOUND MIND, GOD’S PLAN FOR EMOTIONAL AND MENTAL HEALTH is the second non-fiction that I have read by EDDIE SNIPES and it won’t be the last.
THE PROMISE OF A SOUND MIND, GOD’S PLAN FOR EMOTIONAL AND MENTAL HEALTH is packed full of great information. A MUST read for everyone. Those struggle in different aspects of their lives, as well as though that think they have it all together. My copy is packed full of highlights, underlines, side notes, and dog-ears pages. UGH, I wanted to copy the entire book and send it to everyone I know.
I am a volunteer in the prison and jail ministry through my church. THE PROMISE OF A SOUND MIND, GOD’S PLAN FOR EMOTIONAL AND MENTAL HEALTH is a must read for those that are incarcerated. I have no doubt I will be making several purchases in the future to send to others.
Here are just a few great lines from this amazing book.
Page 21:
“If I believe God is directing my steps, I must learn to rejoice in the good and the bad. I say “Bad” from the perspective of human nature but the truth is that nothing is bad if we are walking in God’s plan.”
Page 170:
“When we see the glory of God’s purpose in our lives, we will also hear the calling to come and follow.”
Honestly, I could quote just about the entire book, it’s that great. Don’t miss out. You will be blessed. It will enrich, educate, and enlighten you.

"The truth is until we learn what it means to have intimacy with God, we cannot fully grasp the joy of living a fulfilled life."
Snipes, Eddie (2013-12-26). The Promise of a Sound Mind: God’s Plan for Emotional and Mental Health
You may have heard the statement, “Knowledge is power.” When it comes to biblical truth, knowledge isn’t power. Knowledge is the instruction which leads us to God’s power. Knowing truth doesn’t profit us until we surrender ourselves to it. The Bible gives us knowledge of God’s ways, but until we apply it by faith, it is merely words on the pages of scripture.

The above are just some samples from this excellent book, solid scripture based writing, . Highly recommend this one.

...we don’t inherit the promises by claiming them. We inherit the promises by looking at the instructions which lead us to the promises.
Snipes, Eddie (2012-09-06). The Promise of a Sound Mind: God’s Plan for Emotional and Mental Health (p. 51). GES Publishing. Kindle Edition.
With all of the hype surrounding the name it and claim it mentality, to read the above excerpt is more than enough reason to keep this book---it does not conform to the standards of the world, but tells the truth of the Word in clear and simple language that even a babe (such as myself) can understand and apply. I perceive that this will be a book that I will refer to often in this journey to my final destination.
