In 2003, the President’s budget for bioterrorism defense totalled more than $5 billion. Today, the nation’s top academic scientists are scrambling to begin work to understand Bacillus anthracis and develop new vaccines and drugs. However, just five years ago, only the US Department of Defense (DOD) seemed concerned about these “exotic” agents. In 1997, the DOD spent approximately $137 million on biodefense to protect the deployed force, while academe, industry, local governments, and most of our federal leadership was oblivious to, and in some cases doubtful of, the seriousness of the threat. The National Institutes of Health (NIH) received the largest budget increase in the organization’s history. Fortunately, during this time of national urgency, a sound base exists on which to build our defenses against this new threat. A relatively small cadre of dedicated scientists within the US Army Medical Research and Materiel Command (USAMRMC) laid this foundation over the past 20 years.

Since the fall of Lucifer, the world remains divided into two kingdoms: the kingdom of God and the kingdom of Satan. Thus, humanity is living in a state of permanent war, which the perpetrator is none other than Satanotherwise called Old Serpent. The United Nations have proved their inability to stop wars in some countries such as Syria, where the level of destruction is without precedent compared to First and Second World Wars because they focus more on the carnal. In presence of the wars that are happening around the world and the level of destruction that follows, you can get the idea of the power of the author who came to steal, destroy, and kill. Syria is a disaster! What is visible is rooted in the invisible. So to combat in the invisible realm, one needs the spiritual weapons, those that come from God. David, who had been revealed before Goliath, resorted to these weapons to overthrow the world giant. God provides these weapons with great ability to destroy all the Goliaths of your life. Jean helps us understand by providing light on the love of God who knows our inabilities and vulnerability. Those weapons are available for those who felt oppressed by the enemy. As you read this book, youll be greatly edified.
