Their exhaustive research on this topic, endlessly backed up by Scripture, is evident throughout this book.

This is one of James Goll's older books, written with his wife, Michal Ann, quite a few years ago. It starts rather slowly, but picks up by Chapter 4. As always with Mr. Goll, it is biblically sound. He is careful to warn against some of the popular trends which are common in prophetic circles.
Some shorter quotes from the book: "Never lift up a vessel [person] who brings the Word of God. Lift up Jesus!" "Never allow what you hear through others to become a substitute for hearing the Holy Spirit's voice for yourself." "God's revelatory power graces are not elitist; I want to shatter this small-minded mentality in the Church that believes God's supernatural power is for an elite group. Moving in the supernatural flow is for as many as will make themselves empty vessels and come to the Lord for filling."
One of Mr. Goll's oft-stated purposes is to encourage every one of us in God's family that we can hear from God in amazing ways. I appreciate his attention to emphasizing godly character above flashy prophetic gifts, too. This book is faithful to those goals.
James and Michael Ann Goll take the reader on a spiritual journey to experience the more of God and Heaven. They demonstrate thru their testimony how to take authority over life's situations and experience results. Together they show the reader what is possible.
A great help to me, this book was utilized by Yahweh to teach me so much. Yahweh often uses triangulation to get lessons into me. He has connected sermons, books I've processed, His Word (written and spoken) to change and mold me to be more like Him. I am excited to see what is next. I'm grateful for the authors and I'd like then to know the Lord used them to reach such a one as me.
I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It wasn't what I thought it was. It definitely slapped my religiosity in the face. What I saw consistently being taught in this book was the importance of sanctification. And we as the Church have lost that teaching. But praise God, He is raising up an army of men and women that are completely in love with His heart. The name of the Lord be glorified!
Wow! Wow! Wow! There is just something so amazing and precious about this book. When I got to the last 4 chapters, my spirit was just all over the show! My soul has some catching up to do, so you know that I will be relistening to this book for some time. I do believe I have found more heavenly gems in this book! Thank you to the authors!
To the narrator, I thought you did an excellent job. Well done! And thank you.
