<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Test, trials, and crises don't have to be the end of you. You can overcome and stand as a chosen vessel for your Kingdom assignment and the purpose of God in your life.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Many have been "called and assigned" by God to do a specific work in the Kingdom. As one who has been called and equipped by the Lord for a God-ordained purpose, I know firsthand how God will use the circumstances of your life (whether good or bad) to prepare you for your "Kingdom assignment." Much like any secular school designed to prepare and qualify you to work in a specific area of vocational expertise, the same is true in the "God School of Preparation," as He equips you for your specific Kingdom assignment. Your individual lesson plan can include some very difficult lessons to learn, some tests and trials, some long nights of preparation, and perhaps even thoughts of throwing in the towel, before being approved and positioned by God as a vessel "fit" and ready for the Master's use.</p><p>You will understand: </p> <ol> <li>There is a process of preparation we must embrace to be ready for our kingdom assignment.</li> <li>God can and will use the circumstances of our lives (good or bad) as growth and development tools in preparation of our kingdom assignment.</li> <li>The importance of your role as a supporter to those going through a night season of preparation.</li> <li>There is a reward for your suffering, test, and trials, <em>after this</em>. The theme scripture for this book is I Peter 5:10 Amp: "<em>After you have suffered for a little while, the God of all grace [who imparts His blessing and favor], who called you to His own eternal glory in Christ, will Himself complete, confirm, strengthen, and establish you [making you what you ought to be]."</em></li> </ol> <p>In this book, you will journey with three main characters, Job, Joseph and yours truly, as you experience the step-by-step development process to maturity, in preparation for your kingdom assignment. All three main characters have been chosen by God, but they needed to be equipped through a night season.</p> <p>This book was written as a means to give hope, understanding, and encouragement to those who are currently going through or coming out of a night season in "God's school of preparation." It is Dr. Madelyne Douglas's hope that every called vessel will realize the lessons were never meant to destroy you, but rather to prepare you, and though weeping may endure for a night season, if you can hold out until the morning, God's appointed time for breakthrough, joy, and blessings await you!</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>After This is practical and an easy read for anyone who has a busy life yet needs encouragement. To the person who feels that they are in the dark and alone, to the person who feels that God doesn't see that they're in pain or has a plan for their life, I strongly recommend this book. The author is transparent about her life struggles, how she went through, and came out, and she'll remind you that you're not alone! This book encourages the reader that there is purpose in your pain and the Lord is always with you. </p><p>--Ashley Braswell<br /> Register Nurse, Case Manager, <br /> Dallas, Texas</p><p> </p><p>This book had me remembering so many emotions and inspiring memories from my own personal "night season" I experienced recently. This beautiful life manual, which is so elegantly written, will lead you in how to overcome, how to preserve, and how to stand in God's strength and not your own. Simply put, as you turn the ever so life-changing pages, you will bask in the more--more hope, more tenacity, more joy, and more endurance for your kingdom assignment ahead. If you ever needed something to get you out of your pit, you found it!</p><p>--Tammicole Bennifield, <br /> Instructional Designer and an Intercessor<br /> Kansas City, MO </p><p> </p><p>The biblical parallels in this book clearly reinforce the truth that there is a God and that the same God who worked in the author's life situation who will work in your current circumstances. There will be life and joy after this. I truly enjoyed the read; it was easy to comprehend, digest, and apply to everyday life.</p><p> --Dr. Alisha Hill<br /> Exceptional Education Teacher<br /> KCMO School District</p><br>
