The Fire Will Not Consume You-Isaiah 43: 2b: A Journal of Prayer-A Search for God (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781462410859)

Author James David Parker's once thriving professional career was in a nosedive to disaster. His once-profitable investments dragged him to the precipice of financial ruin. The stress of the battle for survival wasted his will. Mental depression trashed his intellect. As a nominal, but skeptical, Christian, he asked: "Can Jesus rescue me? Will Jesus deliver me from my earthly hell?" And thus began his journey--a search for truth.

In The Fire Will Not Consume You--Isaiah 43:2b, Parker shares his progression from successful engineer to cynicism, to financial disaster and stress-induced illness, to the spirit-led process of prayer and recovery, and finally, to acknowledgement of his intimate relationship with his creator God. Each chapter in the core of the book begins with a prayer addressing a specific deficit in character or perception.

The Fire Will Not Consume You--Isaiah 43:2b chronicles Parker's recovery from mental depression through introspective prayer and Bible study. He offers a guidebook to unleash the unlimited power of God to bring personal peace in prayerful communication with him.
