    . . . From the human side of this equation it is meditative prayer that ushers us into this divine-human fellowship." Richard Foster, bestselling author and founder of Renovar�, writes these words as one who has experienced what they describe. And in this new book he will beautifully guide you in this transformational way, that you might come to know deeper fellowship with God. Weaving together quotes and stories from the lives of mothers and fathers of the faith as well as powerful encounters with God from his own life, Foster describes the riches of quieting your mind and heart in order to listen to and obey God more closely. Along the way, at perhaps his clearest, most practical best, he also provides the biblical teaching and step-by-step help you need to begin this prayer practice for yourself. The journey into meditative prayer is not easy, but it is essential. And, as Foster shows, it's possible, even in the midst of the noisy, often chaotic world we live in. Your soul can become a sanctuary where you fellowship with the very God of the universe, who knows you and loves you deeply. These pages point the way.

    As a result, illnesses have vanished, legal proceedings have been halted and demonic attacks suddenly stopped. Do we write these things off as coincidence? Or is there power in the verdicts that come from the court of heaven? Many Christians are surprised when they first hear that the courts of heaven are real. Many more have been shocked at how their lives have changed after appearing in court to face their adversary. The courts are places where the legal proceedings of heaven are carried out. Cases are brought before a judge, witnesses testify and rulings are handed down. In an earthly court, when an accusation is brought against you and it goes unanswered, even if you're innocent, it can cause legal problems. Whenever your're accused, you must appear to answer the accusation. Otherwise the court must find you guilty. Many of us are being accused right now by an adversary and aren't aware of it. When the accusation goes unanswered, our adversary wins by default and is able to afflict or oppress us. Isn't it time you learned how to present your case in the court of heaven? With the same down-to-earth teaching style used in Divine Healing Made Simple, Praying Medic clearly explains what the courts of heaven are and why we may want to appear in them. Even the least experienced believer will be able to boldly go before the court of heaven and obtain victory after they read the Bible-based teaching, and testimonies provided in this book. Defeating Your Adversary in the Court of Heaven answers the most common questions people have about the courts of heaven. It explains why, when and how we can appear there and how to obtain victory over our accuser. There's even a simple, step-by-step protocol that shows you exactly what to say, when to say it, and what not to say. What you'll learn: What the courts of heaven are Why you should appear in court How to appear in court How to know when you're being accused Understanding the accusation Responding to an accusation How to be exonerated by the court Receiving a verdict Obtaining a scroll Enforcing your verdict
