For Such a Time as This teaches how to be filled with and walk in the power of the Holy Spirit and, therein, live holy lives, not just as servants, but also as friends of Jesus Christ. The book’s refreshing truth is that sanctification is achieved in the power of the Spirit, not the feverous determination of man’s will. Jesus calls out, “Come unto me all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” That rest is freely given to those who will come, those who hunger and thirst for more of Him, who are tired of struggling to find Him in a reality they desperately seek but have yet to discover.
It also sets forth the burden of pastors and teachers, how they are to nurture, protect, and teach the majestic things of the Word of God to the Lord’s beloved children that they might be equipped for the spiritual warfare that rages on earth and in the heavenlies. It is for such a time as this that the book has been delivered to the church.
