You may not believe it, but there is a link between our current political instability and your childhood attachment to teddy bears. There's also a reason why children in Asia are more likely to share than their western counterparts and why the poor spend more of their income on luxury goods than the rich. Or why your mother is more likely to leave her money to you than your father. What connects these things? The answer is our need for ownership. Award-winning psychologist Bruce Hood draws on research from his own lab and others around the world to explain why this uniquely human preoccupation governs our behaviour from the cradle to the grave, even when it is often irrational, and destructive. What motivates us to buy more than we need? Is it innate, or cultural? How does our urge to acquire control our behaviour, even the way we vote? And what can we do about it? Timely, engaging and persuasive, Possessed is the first book to explore how ownership has us enthralled in relentless pursuit of a false happiness, with damaging consequences for society and the planet - and how we can stop buying into it.

Inheritance means taking hold of the portion God has planned for you. Jesus said, "I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly" (John 10:10), demonstrating God's longing for His people to prosper, to accomplish all He has planned for them. He wants to take them from a place of judgment, desolation, and fruitlessness to a place of restoration, hope, and abundant life. In this revised and updated edition of Possessing Your Inheritance, prophetic intercessor Chuck Pierce, with coauthor Rebecca Wagner Sytsema, shows readers how to embrace what God has destined for them, for their children, and their children's children.

When God delivered the children of Israel from Egypt, he told them to conquer seven nations and take over territories. The Lord also has delivered us to take over territories though not physical territories any more, today the territories we are to take over are media, government, education, religion, economy, art and entertainment, and family. All these are culture shapers, they impart on nations and change the world. If you look at the bible, But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth. Acts 1:8In Matthew gospel he says And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, "All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age." Amen. Matthew 28:18-20You can't make disciples of all the nations if you are not involved with nations. So we can't just stay inside the four walls of the church and draw a conclusion, that is all God has started and this is where God is going to finish. We have to go out and carry the gospel and use the gospel to shape the culture of this earth. God wants to redeem the earth. He does not just want to redeem us. He wants to redeem the entire earth. He wants to redeem families, media, education, government, religion, entertainment and in fact the whole world. The redemption you are experiencing; God wants the earth to also experience it. We have to elevate our theology. It is important that you and I begin to think, where has God called us into, which territory has he anointing us to enter and take over.

"You will…decide and decree a thing, and it will be established for you; and the light [of God's favor] will shine upon your ways." —Job 22:28 AMP The body of Christ must break out of a just-get-by, poverty-ridden mentality if the church is going to win the world to Jesus.

In Daily Decrees for Accessing Abundance, Joshua Fowler welcomes you into the life-changing “Decree Dimension” and invites you to discover the power of Job 22 by entering into a 22-Day Decree Challenge. Learn what decrees are and how they work. Then experience twenty-two specific daily decrees—each with supporting Scripture and a journaling section—that will impact your life and change the world.
