Acknowledgments

I acknowledge the Spirit of God who revealed to me that Yahweh is the Lord and enabled me to accept Jesus as my Lord. Jesus said that the spirit of truth would guide us into all truth (John 16:13). Paul said that God reveals to us his plans by the Spirit who searches all things even the deep things of God (1 Corinthians 2:10).

I'm grateful to my mother Mary Waithera who taught me the word of God from my childhood and who prays for me every day. Mom, you are my hero. I acknowledge Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth who is my spiritual mom and the ministry of Revive our Hearts that has greatly impacted my life and taught me how to live in freedom, fullness, and fruitfulness in Christ.

I also appreciate the efforts of Rev. Joseck Kimani who edited my book and helped to communicate more clearly and to connect with my audience.

Thank you to Rev Jeremiah Githere who has been my pastor for the last ten years. He gave me an opportunity to share the Word of God even though I have never been to any theological school or seminary. I pray for God's blessing upon you Rev Jeremy and the Family of Grace International Church who listened to my sermons and embraced me as a servant of the Lord.

Cheers to Victor my son, Paul my husband and Malden Fellowship for being my prayer partners and fellow servants in the vineyard of our Lord.
