The Final Quest

As I mentioned in my earlier post, I have been reading this book called "The Final Quest" by Rick Joyner. He is a pastor in South Carolina, and is was a noteworthy author before penning his vision into this series. The book is part one of a series that documents Rick's visions which were given to him by God, and he explains in the introduction that these visions were much more powerful than just dreams. He mentions several times that during these visions, the experience was so powerful, and so real that he would have to force himself out of them, and return to his daily routine in order to rest and recover. Most of them occurred during the day while he was awake, and came more as a trance-like state rather than what most would think of as day-dreaming.

The book is an account of the final battle between the "hordes of hell" and God's army. It is a battle for salvation, and each part of the armies are different areas of life that are affected by or can have an affect on our salvation. There are many moments throughout the book which he explains are merely his impressions, or interpretations rather, of what he saw, since often the dreams were so vivid and real that it became all-encompassing, and the details were lost in the grand design of his overall vision.

While I would love to write an entire post on nothing more than this book, I encourage everyone to go and purchase it and read it for yourself. However, if you would like to sample it before buying it, please visit the link below. It contains the entire book on a webpage, and even offers the script in a downloadable PDF, and a streaming MP3 format. But please, don't read the entire book online. First, staring at a computer screen is not good for your eyes. Second, you miss a special and intimate aspect that makes this book so special, which is the ability to separate yourself for a moment and enter Rick's vision first-hand. This is much harder to do if you are siting in front of a computer screen. But here it is...if there is any violation of copyright laws, I am not aware, so again I encourage you to go and purchase the book for yourself. Enjoy it, and may God touch your heart and inspire you to climb the mountain!
