Thy Will Be Done On Earth: Understanding God’s Will For You
Published on September 21st, 2009 in Christian
Living, Devotion, and Inspirational.
THY WILL BE DONE ON EARTH: UNDERSTANDING GOD’S WILL FOR YOU by Robert
Lloyd Russell (ISBN 9781606474303)is a tremendous book!
It is definitely worth reading by all Christians! And it is a must-read for anyone seeking
purpose in life. Readers new to
Christianity will find that ideas are presented clearly; more experienced
Christians will appreciate the author’s thought-provoking style on an age-old
subject. Each chapter builds on the
previous chapter in a practical guide to understanding how God’s will for
mankind affects God’s will for each individual. Sections of the book are heavy on graphic
models, a regular gold-mine for the visually oriented. For those less inclined to appreciate these
visuals, the text walks the reader easily through the illustrations. Highly recommend as an individual or group
read.
I plan on re-reading it each and every year. Here are some of the benefits I see as I am on
my second read of this inspiring book:
1. It is extremely well organized:
you do not waste time and energy trying to figure out where the author is going
with his thesis.
2. It is interspersed with many
verses. It has a good balance of
Scripture text and the author’s words. I
love that the book fills my mind with God’s Word. Yet at the same time, I read thoughts that
teach, direct, encourage, entertain me, etc., so that it is not a heavy
theological book.
3. Mr. Russell uses charts,
illustrations, alliterations, and other memory devices to make the principles
of the book stick in my mind long after I have read it.
4. The chapters are bite-sized. This gives me the option of a quick 5-10
minute read if I am rushed or indefinite amount of time if I am just enjoying
the contents of the book.
5. Mr. Russell ends each chapter
with practical application questions and reflection questions. There is a wealth of verses that accompany the
questions for the person who wants a deeper study of the Biblical principles
presented.
In this time of great upheaval in our nation, I believe people will be
looking for real, tangible answers to life’s most important questions. They will need to discover that God has the
answers and those answers are in His Word. “Thy Will Be Done” is a timely book to show
that God’s Will is discernible and it is not that hard to understand with the
right guidance.
This book is would make a good group study.
