Blessing Your Spirit – Christian Book Review

At first glance, the unimaginative title and subject of Blessing your Spirit, by Sylvia Gunter and Arthur Burk, makes the prospective reader believe that this is just another typical Christian prayer book which has over-saturated the Christian retail market. But nothing is farther from the Truth.

This is one of the few books that I keep next to me and go to in times of greatest need (other than the Bible). I read and re-read its pages and virtually every time … God speaks to me directly and eloquently from the astoundingly deep passages of Blessing your Spirit.

What struck me immediately as I opened the pages were the simple words: “I call your spirit to attention in the name of Jesus Christ”. Aptly spoken, these words hit me like a baseball bat every time and my spirit and mind truly hones in on the words and prayers being so intricately and accurately spoken over me.

Each new “blessing” starts with these or similar words and I am certain that as the writers wrote, they purposed that God’s Holy Spirit would take root in the reader’s body, mind, and spirit to absorb God’s blessings over them.

Filled with highly condensed blessings, each word needs to be carefully digested because of the sheer depth of each passage.

Blessing your Spirit is available at Amazon.Com.

The only thing lacking in this book is that the Title and the Cover–which is not horrid, but does not come close to capturing the depth and compelling nature of the words contained within the book itself. But I guess this confirms the old adage, Don’t Judge A Book By Its Cover.
