How do you respond to a parent who criticizes you unfairly? A coworker who spreads untrue rumors to get you fired? A teacher who rides you unmercifully? The usual response to such mistreatment is"get mad and get even". But according to John Bevere, retribution and vengeance are not your prerogatives. They are God's.
It goes against your every natural impulse to watch your abusers seemingly get off scot-free. But if you leave justice in God's hands, He promises:
* He will defend and vindicate you.
* He will bountifully bless you.
* You will grow in character and develop spiritual muscles.
Being mistreated, then, is not a cause for anger or self-defense. Rather it is a cause for "dancing a jig, shouting for joy, and partying in the soul". When you give up your "right" to square things up and instead let God take charge, you put justice in the right hands. It frees you from the acid of resentment and brooding. And it opens your heart to receive more power for a transformed life than you can possibly imagine.

Some passages of Scriptures say, "Judge," while others say, "Don't judge". Most Christians aren't sure that they should judge anything - others feel responsible to raise a moral standard, but don't know how much authority they have. Derek Prince cuts through the apparent conflict to explain:
Who is authorized to judge?
When is judgment called for?
What are we authorized to judge?
Where are the limits?
Why does our attitude matter?
In a world that turns its back on God while crying, "Don't judge me," Derek Prince weighs in with a scriptural affidavit for sound judgment.

Are You Under Cover? There is a secret place under the shadow of the Almighty, where there is liberty, provision, and protection. Yet, too many believers do not enjoy this hidden place. Instead, they seek freedom and security outside of it in a realm where the very opposite exists. They are tricked into believing true and lasting freedom can be found away from Divine authority.
Under Cover exposes the subtle yet rampant tactics the enemy uses against believers - the failure to recognize and properly relate to Divine authority. With practical, personal examples and strong, biblical foundation, this book reminds us the kingdom of God is just that - a kingdom, ruled by a King, where there is order and authority.
You may wonder about harsh or corrupt leaders. How could protection possibly be found under them? Learn to by-pass the immediate authority you see and tap into God's . His promises supersede the laws of men, and in Him we can trust. In this revealing message discover:
* How true biblical submission differs from obedience
* How to avoid being entirely right yet somehow wrong
* How to respond and overcome unfair treatment
* The reason for God-established authority
* How faith is developed
* And much more
Under Cover is a life-transforming message clothed with hope. A present-day word for every believer who desires to walk in the fullness and character of God.
