Description

It was an ordinary day. I had planned my regular routine, until I realized that my cell phone bill was due. I jumped out of bed, got dressed and hurried to the store to pay it. When I got there, to my amazement, I learned that I was eligible for an upgrade. I wasn't expecting that at all; I mean, I thought for sure that I had recently allowed one of my kids to talk me into letting them use my upgrade. I argued back and forth with the representative, until he finally got tired and offered to show me on the screen. that I was eligible. Soon, I realized that he was absolutely right, and I accepted the fact that I was indeed eligible for this upgrade. Although I did not receive an upgrade on my cell phone that day, as I began to leave, the Holy Spirit spoke to me and declared that I was also eligible for an upgrade in the Spirit. I could hardly contain myself. Just like I didn't think I was eligible for a new phone, I didn't feel worthy or eligible in the Spirit. Despite my shortcomings, despite getting in a hurry to sometimes do the opposite of what God tells me to do, God still offered me an upgrade. Without a doubt, I believe this book will change the lives of all who read it. Both the chapters and content were given to me by the Holy Spirit, and my prayer is that whatever state you may find yourself in, know that you too can open up your text and learn that you are eligible for an upgrade as well.,
