Virtual Book Tour Stewart Perrilliat



Kingdom Principles For Everyday Living



 About The Book

The book is a 40 day devotional. It's a great book for men and women. This book is designed to help those who are struggling with a consistent prayer life. It's easy to read and very fruitful.


Guest Post

Over the years, I have come to understand the significance of the number 40. Scientifically speaking, 40 weeks is the length of time it takes for a mother to carry an unborn child from conception to delivery. Biblically speaking, 40 is the number associated with a period of testing before a breakthrough.

The number 40 is an indication that God is ready to birth something new out of pain or challenge. According to the Bible, Noah was in the rain for 40 days and nights before God brought a refreshing promise for His people.

When the Children of Israel were ready to cross over into their promise, the spies who preceded them took 40 days to scout out the land. However, because of disobedience, their 40 days turned into 40 years before they entered into the land of promise.
Goliath, who was killed by David, challenged the Children of Israel for 40 days prior to their victory over the Philistine army.

Before He began His ministry, Jesus, while being tempted by satan, fasted for 40 days and 40 nights in the wilderness.

I have experienced my own personal 40 days of trials and tribulations. However, because I did not lose my confidence in God, I was able to realize the significance of the number 40 and receive God’s blessings for me after my test. These truths concerning the number 40 inspired me to write this devotional.

In modern times, 30 days is used to complete various programs or to create a new habit. At the beginning of the year, Magazine cover stories often read, Thirty Days to a New You. For the purpose of this devotional the true number for the manifestation of a renewed life is the number 40.

Therefore, this devotional will afford you an opportunity to develop a more intimate relationship with the Lord and transform your life. As you read this devotional, it will give you hope and renew your strength. On those days when doubt and disbelief abound, I encourage you to remain consistent with your 40 day cycle of reading Kingdom Principles for Everyday Living: 40 Practical Principals for a Fruitful Life.
I challenge you to apply yourself and expect a breakthrough by the time you have complete this devotional. I encourage you to not only read through the devotions in this book, but to read the related scriptures and commit them to memory. This process will increase your knowledge of God, and strengthen your faith towards Him.

God’s will for us is to increase in every area of our lives by being doers of His Word. I pray that this devotional draw you closer to God and give you the incredible power to break into your promise.

Featuring Author Poppy Smith



WHY CAN’T HE BE MORE LIKE ME?



Question l:  You’ve written the book Why Can’t He Be More Like Me? Tell us a little bit about the book and why you decided to write it.

Marriage is difficult for many people and our culture’s message is if you’re unhappy for some reason, move on. Unfortunately, many Christian couples divorce because they don’t get along but God wants to use our differences to draw us into a deeper relationship with Him.  This is what happened to me.  I wanted to run away because I felt I’d made a terrible mistake marrying someone who was so different from me. But God had another message for me—Let me change your heart and your attitudes and thinking. Let me make you someone you’d never be without letting me work in your life.

Question 2: Because husbands and wives grow up in different homes, problems often arise when they come together to create their own home. Do you have any suggestions to help?

 When you’re baffled or irritated by how your spouse responds or behaves, it is very helpful to ask: “How did your family do this? How did they handle conflict? How did they show, or not show, emotions? Communicate? What did your family enjoy doing together? How did they handle money? Divide the work load?” The more you learn about each other’s backgrounds and parental role models, the more you will understand him, and yourself. Gaining these insights helps you to understand instead of find fault!

Question 3: Your book offers practical advice for finding common ground in nine areas. What is the overall secret you wish women understood?

We women need to understand we didn’t marry our clones. Nor did we marry our girlfriend. We married a man—they are not women in disguise.  Yes, they need to change and grow, but so do we. So be willing to forgive, look for his good points, and pray for a new and powerful love for your spouse.
