This book, by Z.T. Fomum, highlights one of the Biblical models that made God her Eternal Bliss. Anna the prophetess, after having known gratification from natural pleasures and desires, chose neither withdrawal, seclusion, the temple, nor a life of prayer and fasting. Instead, she chose God! God was her only Choice. Living in total seclusion, she happily accepted everything that accompanied her only choice. She withdrew in an attempt to give Him endless praise night and day without distraction, from a life of worship. This book is a cry from the heart of the author to raise in our generation many "Annas", lovers serving out of love and not servants who will do many things for Him out of duty. Read this book and get yourself enlisted into the army of secluded worshippers.
Worship in local churches has changed dramatically over the past fifty years, not only in North America but in many places on every continent. Have these widespread and varying shifts left us with vague or even false impressions of what the weekly worship event is all about? Do followers of Jesus Christ grasp the importance of their role in worship? Do they know how to become fully engaged participants? Do they realize Jesus himself is our best guide and model for worship? Worship Like Jesus guides Christ-followers through the essential features of Christian worship, transforming the reader’s understanding and experience of worship. This leads people—even entire congregations—to experience worship in exciting and profound ways as never before. This type of worship also leads people into deeper and more committed discipleship. Imagine a community of fully engaged, deeply committed disciples! Revered author and scholar Constance Cherry offers this practical and foundational resource for ministry leaders and their worship communities. Each chapter follows the same helpful structure: Introduction Description of the chapter topic and its importance Discovery of Jesus’s own practice Deliberation or reflection on how Jesus’s model makes a difference Determination—readers consider how their worship will be shaped as a result of this chapter; includes questions for reflection Prayer At the end of each chapter, an exercise is suggested to help people take a practical step toward greater participation and engagement. A Leader Guide is included as an Appendix. This equips pastors, worship leaders and others to facilitate group study of the book. It is a powerful tool for transforming leadership teams and entire congregations.
The Complete Works of Zacharias Tanee Fomum on Prayer (Volume 1) contains the following books: 1) Retreats for Spiritual Progress 2) The Way of Victorious Praying 3) Praying with Power 4) The Ministry of fasting 5) The Ministry of Praise and Thanksgiving A rousing revolution in the ABC and dynamics of prayer, fasting, and retreats for spiritual progress, this first volume presses the button and sets into motion the series of steps that lead anyone who calls on the name of the Lord, to cry to Him systematically and systemically in an intelligible and intelligent way daily. The books are cohesive and coherent, full of heart-to-heart exchanges between the author, his God, and the reader. By reading through them intently, you can build a loving relationship with the Lord. He is looking for true worshippers and those who worship Him must do so in spirit and in truth (John 4:20-24). You can withdraw constantly, consistently, and conspicuously every day on short and long retreats for spiritual progress in order to pray, read the Word of God, read books on the faith, meet God in Daily Dynamic Encounters with Him, and just relieve, relish, cherish and flourish in His presence. “Retreats for Spiritual Progress” demystifies retreats and makes them a possible, probable, and practical daily reality. You can have four or more retreats for spiritual progress every day without fail of just fifteen minutes each. You can have a 5-month retreat in seclusion like Elizabeth, mother of John the Baptist (Luke 1:24). It could be 40 days like those of Moses, Elijah, and the Lord Jesus Christ. By diligently and earnestly going through this volume, you may resolve to become a person constantly in the presence of the Lord, daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly. “The Way of Victorious Praying” details the ABCs of prayer and fasting and provides practical direction as to how to pray for yourself, your leaders, the saints, the church, the ministry, the work, church planting, and many more. It shows you how to pray daily, record your prayer points in a notebook, fill it up when the prayers are answered, and have convincing proof to show both friend and foe that we have a God who answers prayer.
God is eagerly waiting to fill you with His Holy Spirit! God’s purposes in the New Covenant are tied to people who are filled with the Holy Spirit. The greatest need of the hour and the Lord’s perfect will is that each believer be filled with the Holy Spirit and filled with power. Although He is waiting anxiously to do this, He can only fill those who are empty. Those who are filled with sin, self, the love of the world or the love of the things that are in the world cannot be filled with the Holy Spirit, because they are already filled with the wrong thing or with the wrong things. In this small practical book, Prof. Fomum presents the seven heart conditions, together with a well-thought-out list of the things that often fill the hearts of people and so hinder them from being filled with the Holy Spirit. We encourage you to prayerfully go through the list, acknowledging, hating, uprooting from the heart and carrying out the necessary restitution once the illegal presence of any of the listed things is identified in your life. Immediately you present a pure heart to God, He will fill it with the Holy Spirit. He is eagerly waiting to fill you. Empty yourself without delay.

Is the eternal destiny of those for whom Christ died the prior thoughts of your life? The one and only reason why the Lord Jesus did not take you to heaven the day you believed was that you should stay here on earth, win the lost to Him and make disciples of all nations. Soul-Winning (Volume two) will set you thinking of the souls of men—how they will fare on Judgment Day and what you must do to rescue the largest number, in the shortest possible time, from going to hell. This is one of the three burdens that the author, Professor Z.T. Fomum carried permanently on his heart, alongside those of prayer and the training of spiritual leaders. This book is a powerful motivator to get you started in an endless season of evangelism.
This book is an expository study of spiritual leadership. The author, Z.T. Fomum, taught extensively on leadership—training thousands of spiritual leaders across the world—being himself the leader of a growing missionary movement currently established in over 140 countries. The content of the book is not theological discussions, but words from a heart to hearts. Several leaders have become experts in the presence of men in the guise of the ministry they render. But God's plan was that the leader be His companion—a man of His presence. The Lord Jesus established leaders first to be with HIM and then serve Him from a position of overflow. The entire life and ministry of the leader depend on it. The author elaborates on two schools of leadership—the home and the workplace—where one is moulded to provide the model of a God-approved heart for others to imitate. This book will not leave you indifferent. Read it and may God transform you into a leader in His presence.

We were saved to serve. With these and over 32 other reasons, we must save ourselves from the guilt of the blood of sinners. Plunge into the book and read carefully through to be convinced and convicted to rush out there where sinners are, in order to bring them to Christ and into His kingdom. Come with Professor Fomum and share these truths about winning the lost and, by the grace of God, you will be blessed.
The Missionary as a Son is a keynote lecture delivered by the author to missionary candidates during a transformative session at the School of Knowing and Serving God, the esteemed missionary training institution of Christian Missionary Fellowship International in Yaounde. The message unravels the essence of being a missionary son and provides invaluable guidance on how to embrace this identity. Drawing inspiration from the Lord Jesus Christ—the ultimate example, the author illuminates the core principles of becoming a missionary son. Jesus, as both the Son of God and the Son of Man, devoted His entire existence to fulfilling the work entrusted to Him by His Father, thus bringing glory to God. In this divine blueprint, God reveals His design for the missionary enterprise, expecting every missionary to begin their journey as sons, both of God and of man. The pathway to truly belonging to a man is through complete allegiance to God. To accurately relate to a man of God, one must first understand how God speaks and relates to that individual. Admiration forms the foundation of sonship, for without admiration, one fails to perceive the glory inherent in another person. It is through this natural process that we emulate those we admire. Ministry is the natural outgrowth of a genuine relationship with God. Spiritual union and communion with the divine inevitably bear fruit in the form of impactful ministry. As you embark on this enlightening journey, may your heart be open to the cry within these pages—a heartfelt plea for God to perform spiritual heart surgeries within the lives of all missionaries and missionary candidates, birthing in them a profound transformation that molds them into missionary sons, mirroring the character and example of Christ.
