Publisher's summary

Timeless encouragement for the challenges of life.

Have you ever asked:

"If God loves me, why I am going through this trial?"

"Why is there so much misery, suffering, persecution, and injustice in the world?"

God's people still experience the challenges of life. There is one factor, however, that sets people of faith apart - hope.

Derek Prince, one of the 20th century's most trusted Bible teachers, invites you to face some of your most difficult circumstances head-on with hope.

In Why Bad Things Happen to God's People, Prince shares timeless truths from the Book of Job that will keep you anchored during any storm.

You will:

  • Be informed...on the roles that Satan and sin play in life's circumstances
  • Be equipped...to respond to fiery trials with Biblical faith
  • Be assured...by embracing mystery
  • Be inspired...by the prophetic words of God
  • Be stabilized...through a fresh vision of God's sovereignty and power
  • Be comforted...through encountering God's holiness
  • Be encouraged...as you remember God's relentless plan to reveal his goodness to you

Brilliant!

God’s word through Derek Prince has touched my heart. His eloquence and method of teaching is so important, now more than ever! The battle between good and evil has existed since the beginning of time but it is so prevalent now. I am truly grateful that I can now listen to Derek’s books through Audible.

Necessary literature for present times

In the world we are living in, as children of God we question why bad things happen. We really consider these things when living for the Most High God and it can disturb our peace. Derek Prince reminds us through the Word of God… There is nothing we will face that the Lord has not given us a blueprint to navigate with His help.
Things will happen but out mindset and relationship with God will determine the impact of these things. Everything we need is found in Him and He is our ultimate strength and protection in periods of great pain.

Read Job first or again.

A very well written book on understanding the important of trusting God and allowing the Holy Spirit to interpret scripture. Great application of the life of Job.

good message

I enjoyed the book but the reader was distracting with his almost computer-like voice.
