This book may encourage the unbeliever, help to solidify the faith of the believer, and help to unify the body of Christ. Although the spiritual concordance is only a list of definitions, when the Spirit of God uses these definitions to reveal God's spiritual message, the person receiving that message receives faith. Because the revelation of scripture is not of any private interpretation, all who receive it will share in the same knowledge of that revelation, creating unity of understanding-and with enough revelation knowledge, unity in judgment.
Louie Giglio helps you find encouragement, hope, and strength in the midst of any valley as you reject the enemy voices of fear, rage, lust, insecurity, anxiety, despair, temptation, or defeat. Scripture is clear: the Enemy is a liar who will stop at nothing to tempt you into poor decisions and self-defeating mindsets, making you feel afraid, angry, anxious, or defeated. It is all too easy for Satan to weasel his way into a seat at the table intended for only you and your King. But you can fight back. Don't Give the Enemy a Seat at Your Table outlines the ways to overcome those lies so you can find peace and security in any challenging circumstance or situation. With the same bold, exciting approach to Scripture as employed in Goliath Must Fall and his other previous works, pastor Louie Giglio examines Psalm 23 in fresh ways, highlighting verse 5: "You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies." You can find freedom from insecurity, temptation, and defeat--if you allow Jesus, the Shepherd, to lead the battle for your mind and heart. This spiritual warfare book for those who are leery of spiritual warfare books will resonate with Louie's core Passion tribe as well as with Christians of all ages who want to live a triumphant life in God.
A Table Prepared Before Me is written for Christians and all who want to reach their God-ordained destiny. Its aim is to encourage Christians to live for the Lord as He expects us to live, and to understand who they are and the magnitude of the table prepared before them. This book tries to bring to the attention of readers the fact that there are tables prepared before Christians, and these tables are the reason for enemy attacks. It motivates, advises and engages Christians on how to successfully defeat the enemy. The Christians life is an interesting one. It is full of fun and adventures great by all standards. It is also full of serious challenges as we struggle to maintain that honor bestowed on us from above. The Christians life is filled with opportunities designed by God for the benefit of His people and His kingdom. These opportunities are placed there to help Christians aspire, grow, mature, and be better so that they will live more fulfilled lives and be more useful to God and to their fellow Christians. This book is divided into six chapters. Chapter 1 offers an introduction to the origin and description of the table prepared before me. Chapter 2 looks into the nature and characteristics of this table the psalmist is talking about. Chapter 3 discusses and sheds light on who the enemies are and their general characteristics. Chapter 4 answers the troubling question about why a table must be prepared before us in our enemies presence. Chapter 5 explores how Christians can occupy and maintain their positions at their tables. Chapter 6 discusses how non-Christians can qualify for this table, and how they and other Christians can strengthen their position in their Christian walk. Also, there is some supportive scripture material at the end.

“A battle manual for every Christian.” —Sinclair B. Ferguson The Christian life is a battle. We are in a daily struggle against the world, sin, and Satan. But God didn’t leave us to fend for ourselves. He gave us his own armor—armor that Jesus has already worn on our behalf all the way to the cross. The same power that raised Christ from the dead is now at work inside of us. This book unpacks each of the pieces of spiritual armor Paul describes in Ephesians 6, inviting us to take up the armor each day, all while resting in the finished victory of Christ and the assurance that our strength for the battle comes from him.
