Author
Ifeoma Samuel’s new book, Overcome
Failure, is a must have for anyone who is human. Don’t we all fail and find it hard to pick
ourselves back up? Especially if it’s a red
face blunder type of failure and I think just about every one of us has
experienced that in life.
The
author reminds us who we are and to whom we belong: trust God.
We don’t have to be perfect; God is the perfect one!
I
like declarations from God’s Word and speak them over my life to remind myself
of true reality. Declarations from the
Word are included here.
The
advice to overcome critics helps me to know that if criticism evokes growth, I
keep it. If it is not meant for good, it
should be discarded.
The
author suggests ways to overcome embarrassing situations. I have found myself in loads of those and
checked off the list of what to do!
I
nodded in agreement with this book when it comes to fear of failure and ways to
overcome. My favorites were saturating
myself with God’s Word, really believing it!
The other is developing an attitude of gratitude.
I
liked the emphasis on God’s Word, not just positive thoughts and
statements. Clever positive words have
never held their strength compared to the power of what God says. There is nothing like His promises!
The
ending of this book targets faith and I know developing faith always overcomes
fear. Faith gets us to the finish line.
I
highly recommend Overcome Failure. It comes with a companion study guide and
will be available for purchase on August 16, 2016.

ReplyDeleteSo true. The Word of God transforms us. It even transforms non-believers who read it. I told my son the bible is unlike any other book.
