Book Cover & Preview Text
Every morning when I wake up, the first thing I do is spend intimate time with God, my Father. I roll out of bed, go into my prayer closet, and enjoy sweet communion with Him in prayer. Then I step out of my private place, hop back into my bed, and cozy up to read from the Word of God. I am always thirsty and hungry for His presence and truth. I love feeling close to God by praying to Him, praising Him, and reading His Word, the Holy Bible. I pray to Him and pour out all my concerns, desires, hurts, fears, and love. I praise Him to thank Him for who He is, all He has done, all He is doing, and all He will do. I read His Word because I feel closer to Him when I learn about His character, plan, and person by studying the Holy Spirit–inspired testimonies of the saints and learning how He revealed Himself and His love to them. Then throughout my busy day, when I can sneak away to spend a moment with God, I will open up His Word, tuck my legs under me, and take in the sweet, healing truth that comforts me. His Word excites and warms me in a way I could never explain. It deepens my love and desire for Him and causes me to anticipate the day He will return and present me with salvation. My greatest pleasure is to spend time with Him. I share this with you because some will think it odd that someone would be so in love with a God she cannot see. Let me explain to you how I got to this place and why I am so excited to go even deeper into intimacy with the God who created the heavens and the earth.

About the Book
Born and raised in a small town, author Zarah Everly grew up in poverty and was regularly exposed to sexual abuse and harmful addictions at a young age. As she learned about God, she prayed to Him in the hope of leaving the tough situation. In The Faithful God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, she shares her life journey, speaking of her evolution as a Christian woman, broken, fallen, and in desperate need of saving.
In this memoir, she talks about her intimate walk with God as a sinful, yet justified, individual. Everly chronicles the realities she faced and how she had become an adulterer, fornicator, liar, thief, murderer, coveter, and idolater who was hateful, envious, gossipy, proud, disobedient, unmerciful, and unthankful. And, she describes how by God’s grace she was delivered, healed, sanctified, perfected, and made complete. She became a holy, blameless, and justified friend of God.
The Faithful God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob narrates how God answered Everly’s prayers and tells of the warmth and comfort she received in times of desperation, hurt, and pain.
