Not too deep - Rated
I think this book is too shallow. Indeed it covers the basic, but the knowledge surrounding it is too little. It's maybe great for new starters too the subject but then there is other much better books.

Put on the whole armor - Rated
Derek Prince retells us in a very concise manner that which Scripture says in that "we struggle not against flesh and blood but against...the spiritual forces of evil..." While giving a 10,000 ft overview of the devil and his fallen angels, he spends the majority of the 137 pages talking about the every day practical preparation a believer under goes to suit up with the whole armor of God. He encourages the believer once equipped to not remain defensive but take back ground in enemy occupied territory. He reminds us that the devil is content when the believer leaves him alone. But Derek challenges us to not put down our sword, the Word of God and our Testimony. Instead, we need an offensive strategy to methologically invade his territory reclaiming it piece by piece.

This is a very practical presentation for teen youth, young adults, and new believers. It is a reminder of the basics for the seasoned believer.

The battle for your mind are you ready? - Rated
This is a small book, 137 pages, full of scripture and explanation on how to fight the spiritual battle for the mind. The reader is given hope. Hope as defined on page 79,"Hope is a quiet, steady expectation of good based on the promises of God's Word...Hope is an optimistic attitude that always chooses to see the best and will not give way to depression, doubt, and self-pity." God's Word - the Truth - is hope for us all. God's Word is what Jesus used to rebuke Satan when He was tempted. If it is correct for Jesus, it is correct for us.
