First I searched all the books by the minister who I was quoting. The only verse quoted was, “Are they not all ministering spirits sent forth to minister for those who will inherit salvation?” (Heb 1:14). When I opened the Bible, the Holy Spirit brought me to the story of the Lord when He was on trial. At this time He was operating as a “son of man” meaning that He was doing what men could do on the Earth when they are aligned with God's will. The Lord Himself said that He could, “ask the Father” who would send legions of angels to rescue Him. If the Lord had to ask the Father for angelic assistance, then so do we. Since that time, I am careful to verify quotes from ministers before I put them in my books.
Recently I was asked, “Which books should be free?” by a published Christian author, let’s call her Zoe. I cited the scriptures I used in each of my books as reference. This didn’t satisfy her.
I explained the miracle which accompanied this information, “The day my first book was free everywhere, online and at my website, including shipping, someone I never met deposited $1000 into my checking account with a message about how this book had answered so many questions she had for so many years.”
“That is well and good,” Zoe replied, “But I could tell you of several miracles which accompanied the publishing of my book.” She had written a autobiography several years earlier.
What do we do when there seems to be contradicting signs and wonders? I went back to exactly what God’s Word said and exactly what He said to me. Of course this involved much praying and asking the Holy Spirit for guidance. There were two things that He brought back to me:
One:
God said, “How much do you want to receive from me?”
“Everything… I want to know all of You…” I replied.
God informed me, “Then they all must be free.”
Two:
He sent a dream and informed me that if I pulled two books from the system then there would be a price to pay. At the time I thought this was my secular series. However, when I pulled my books from Amazon’s select program in the middle of the contract, those two books suffered with only a fraction being downloaded.
Why would God have me leave two books in the system that was forcing me to charge for them? What was different about these books?
These two things swirled around in my head and I told Zoe as much. Jytte joined the two of us in Courts of Heaven. After clearing any cases, I petitioned God for clarity on the matter of which books should be free.
We waited and listened. The quiet knowing came from the Holy Spirit. The witness of tingling cascaded up and down my body as I declared what God was revealing:
All books which contain a revelation from Him for His people - a message from Him - these should be free. If you expect His anointing to flow from the words to His people, these books should be free.
If your book is your memoir, your journey with wisdom you have learned, then it is your choice. You can charge for it or you can give it to Him. I chose to give mine away for free because I have given my entire life to the Lord - I trust Him for everything.
Both women agreed that the Holy Spirit was giving witness in their spirit that this was God’s way. The next day, I checked my blog. I had 617 hits from Israel, all on that day.
If you recall, this isn’t the first time God has confirmed something with hits from Israel. Six is the number of man and seventeen in the Bible means overcoming in complete victory. This is they way men overcome the enemy for a complete victory!

Many people think of boot camp as a place you train for combat. Any veteran will tell you that basic training is about three things:
- Knowing what weapons are available
- Learning how to use those weapons
- Receiving orders and following them
The series uses the Word of God to reveal all that He has given us through Jesus. The Bible is our instruction manual and the Holy Spirit is our guide to understanding it.
Volume 1: Why Doesn't God Speak to Me?
Eager hearts cry out, hoping for a single word to confirm that He hears us. Yet, many times the only sound is silence. Over the years I have heard several reasons why God speaks to some and not to others. One night, as I tossed and turned, I brought each of these reasons before the Lord, stating why each of them did not line up with who I thought He was.
Words rose from my soul, pleading for Him to reveal why He has remained silent when a single word from Him would mean so much to so many. For the next few hours, God used things I learned about years ago and things I had just discovered to show why He talks to some and why He doesn’t, and in demonstrative ways.
In His grace, He also showed me how people could hear more from Him. Basic instructions on how to hear more from God and how to be led by Him are included in this book. Thank you for taking time to consider the answers I received and share with you now.
