Publisher's summary

Somewhere down the line, born-again believers have conformed to the world and the world's way of thinking - including the concept behind work. The world has taught you that you must work hard for success, and this is how you become successful.

However, faith is the key to accessing all of God's power, grace, love, mercy, forgiveness, and favor. God does not take money; you cannot buy your way into Heaven. God does not take work; you cannot work your way into Heaven. God does not take good deeds; you cannot manipulate your way into Heaven. If God does not take them in Heaven, he does not take them on Earth. The only working element that you have to get you into Heaven (both spiritually and naturally) is by faith. You must labor in faith, not in works or deeds.

An excerpt:

"Believing and receiving are the biggest problems with born-again believers. Believing in Jesus is one thing, but believing in your situation is another thing.

As mentioned, too many Christians have been conformed to the world. This mindset will block grace, i.e. the transaction factor for your blessing/miracle. The world conveys that you must physically do something to change your situation - that you must work to earn it. But on the contrary, as an heir to the kingdom of God, you are entitled to everything that is yours. You have dominion over the world, and you do not have to work for it."
