Eternity’S Essentials Poetic Evangelism

By William R. Lavell

Eternitys Essentials Poetic Evangelism is full of enriched poetic messages, filled with inspirational challenges, comforts, and encouragement for those desiring to do Gods will and obtain an abundant life. In our world today, filled with secular influences and pressures that seem to attempt to compromise the vitality of Gods quality will and ways, Christians need to be more fully devoted like never before, strong and steadfast, alert and uncompromising, not veering to the left or right of Gods divine path and purposes for our lives. Clearly, our messed-up world with pressures of many kinds to cave, comply, or compromise, we must seek the strength of our Lord, who is stronger than the strong. It is crucial in order to maintain an abundant life. Our communion and prayer dependence upon God must be heightened to its maximum stretch of devotion. Anything less would be to live far below our privilege. For ultimate results, we must remember one of the greatest promises from our LordBe thou faithful unto death and I will give thee a crown of life.

William Lavell is a Canadian graduate in the social work field. His passion for Evangelism has led him to author an inspirational novel called Casino: All That Glitters Is Not Gold, creating hope for his readers who have found themselves to have stumbled and been ensnared by counterfeit and destructive addictions. Williams book has helped countless readers reach higher ground, obtaining a pathway of freedom and peace. In Williams new novel entitled Eternitys Essentials Poetic Evangelism, he sees a harvest of hope for those seeking an abundant life promised by God to all who surrender to Gods will being done on earth as it is in heaven.

William R. Lavell

Williams poetic messages are filled with golden nuggets that inspire, comfort, challenge, and encourage readers toward a deeper, fully committed divine intimacy with almighty God who created them. William believes that because of a lack of knowledge and a shortage on discipleship training, along with compromising with secular influences, the church todays body of Christ is living far below her privilege. Once again, Williams hope for his new novel is that the church would be inspired and challenged to rise to her place of privilege, taste, and never let go of the abundant life. When William is not writing, he spends time with family and friends, church family, enjoys nature, goes fishing, and most importantly, spends time in the word of God. To invite William for a poetic evening of inspirational poetry, an Evangelistic deliverance seminar, book signings, or for up-and-coming date and times for ministry, contact him via email at WilliamR.Lavell.com, Facebook, or [e-mail] or [e-mail].

Acknowledgments

When I asked God how I may share the whispers of His will with this present generation and generations to come, He rekindled my love for poetry.

Early in life, when I was a young man and young father, poetry found my heart sharing love letters of prayers and poetry with my heavenly Father.

At some point, after a few years, life got busy, and the novelty of poetry seemed to fall by the wayside.

However, God has strongly renewed this passion in the last five years.

Many of the poems I have written stem from life lessons learned over my few decades of temporal living upon this earth.

I believe I obtained these pearls and nuggets from heaven to prepare me for when this temporal part of my journey on earth is over and my eternal journey begins.

Since God’s truth pearls, which came from heaven, have been such a blessing and benefit to myself, God has convinced me to share His wonderful wisdom with all who have turned an ear toward His will.

I’m convinced that sharing God’s truths worldwide will indeed benefit others as much as they have certainly benefited me.

I pray that the poetry comforts, challenges, and inspires hearts to a deeper and more intimate relationship with Almighty God, obtaining and maintaining a pathway of peace.

All glory be to my precious Savior, Jesus Christ of Nazareth.

In addition, I would like to give special thanks to the Holy Spirit, in whom all wisdom originates and of whom I’m privileged to be a sharing steward, with great thanks I’m eternally grateful for your inspiration.

Furthermore, thanks to my mother, whom I love dearly and eternally, as well as my family, who graciously sacrificed time that we would have otherwise cherished together.

Thanks to your love and support, I’m able to get this book’s poetic messages of evangelism out to the church and the public.

Special thanks, as always, to West Bow Press, whose professionalism, encouragement, and support go beyond a mile.

Finally, my greatest desire is to thank my Lord God Almighty for His unfailing love, grace, and mercy.

Introduction

This book of poetry is dedicated to all disciples, evangelists, and martyrs who have devoted so much toward caring for those from whom time has stolen all hope, will and stamina to help themselves.

May we, by God’s grace, continue to go to them.

Life has promised to be filled with persecutions, trials, tribulations, and hardships as well as joy, peace, freedom, and abundance.

Life, reality as we
