I want to thank God first for the opportunity to collaborate with Pastor Yvonnya Peoples on this (first of many) projects. This self-paced journal is designed to give you insight from her perspective on how to navigate through all times (good, bad or indifferent), with God as your guide.
When I met Pastor Peoples, I sensed that I wanted to sit at her feet and hear her story. She had a strong, yet gentle stance and I could see the love of Christ gleaming all around her. I also noticed that she was very observant and spoke very little. She piqued my interest, as a woman of God, to know what she had endured. We then attended the same event once, and she was given an opportunity to speak. As I attempt to maintain my composure while penning this encounter (and an encounter it was), I recall this roar of declaration as she said, God took a whore and made her Holy!
It was difficult to imagine this voice coming from the same person that I had met shortly before this encounter. I leaned in because I knew this woman had a testimony that would free many! She shamelessly shared a part of her story that wowed me and other hearers.
Fast forward to her asking me to edit her first book – I was in awe because from the day I heard that voice – the voice that shook the very gates of hell to let the devil know that not only was she out, but she was coming for other captives! – I knew a book had to be written to get to those who may not be able to encounter this force of the Kingdom face-to-face. However, to include me as a trusted part never entered my mind.
As we have been going back and forth, organizing, changing, and discussing downloads from Holy Spirit as to how this project should go, we’ve become sister-friends. Each page I read gave me more insight into her story, as well as enhanced my own. It opened past pain of my own and provided Spiritual healing in areas I thought were already healed.
I encourage you to read each portion with great expectation and desired insight from Holy Spirit. You will indeed be blessed by the immersed love that is evident in the writing. I remain ever grateful and excited already about the next
