From Kathryn Kuhlman's heart to yours, eleven messages to stir you and encourage you. For many years, Kathryn Kuhlman spoke to millions of radio listeners, opening her heart to them and sharing her experiences to help them learn the ways of God, Christ, and the Holy Spirit. She shared both good times and bad times with them, as well as crying times and shouting times. Thousands of listeners wrote to her and told her how much their experiences were like hers and how much her talks helped them. Out of the many talks she gave, we have chosen eleven of her best and most helpful—talks filled with her steadfast belief that “no Christian ever needs to be defeated.” Kathyrn Kuhlman once said that Christian character isn't made on the mountaintop; it's made in the valley. In these messages she leads you through the valley to the mountaintop as she shares with you the wisdom she gained in her many years of walking with God. You will want to read them again and again and share them with others. We have kept this book small, so you can carry it with you and read it often. It is a book you can give to friends in order to comfort them in the same way it brings comfort to you. We know Ms. Kuhlman would be pleased with that.
"The secret is growth, and the more you pray, the more time you spend in meditation and reading God's Word, the greater efforts you put forth working on your soul, the more sensitive and spiritual, the more powerful and effective are your prayers and the better work you do for God. As a result, God will use you in a greater way, and you will advance in spiritual things." (Kathryn Kuhlman, Heart to Heart Volume 1)
During Kathryn Kuhlman's ministry, she used to offer tapes and one of the most requested ones she offered was entitled The Beginning of Miracles. The tape became popular because in it, she shared the beginning of her early ministry, disappointments she encountered, and Who was the secret to her ministry - The Holy Spirit. The very first chapter of this book is I believe a transcription of that tape! Therefore, this book is part autobiographical and is full of teaching messages direct from the author.
The message that I noticed Ms. Kuhlman weaved like a thread through most of this book was the message on the Holy Spirit being her secret to her power in ministry. She says, "What is the secret to the power in this ministry? The secret is found in the Person of the Holy Spirit. I have chosen to accept the gift that Jesus left for me, and you will never regret it if you accept His gift, too." She teaches that there wasn't a greater gift that Jesus could have left us. It was His own secret to His victory in ministry, victory in the hour of temptation, the power and miracles demonstrated, and even the power that raised Him from the grave. She says, "I wish I could stand on the highest mountain top and shout it until every man, every woman, every priest, ever rabbi, every minister who is behind the pulpit could know and hear and understand. This wonderful gift that Jesus has given to His body of believers is a sacred and a holy gift. What greater gift could Jesus give than the One who had been responsible for the miracles performed through His ministry, the One who had empowered Him, whose power had raised Him from the grave - the Holy Spirit?"
Thank God for this extraordinary woman and for giving us the extraordinary gift of the Holy Spirit! Goodread!
