This spiritual survival guide is for any man living behind bars.
It’s also about how he can become a fully blessed son of the Father.
It’s useful whether or not he is already a Christian, is new to the system or has been down for decades.
Each selection of morning and evening Bible verses (KJV) relates to a general theme, identified by a banner verse in italics. As he reads, marks, learns and inwardly digests God’s living Word, the Holy Spirit will use it to influence his thinking and reach into his heart (see 2 Timothy 3:16-17). These verses will ease his mind and reassure him of God’s control and concern for his welfare. They will also inspire him to learn more about God’s supernatural power that can not only make him a new man in Christ but also change other men and the atmosphere around him.
I’ve included some classic expressions of Christian belief, as well as a few psalms, really old hymns, prayers and poems. They will assure him that any anger, fear, sadness or frustration he may be feeling is not unusual or permanent. Other prisoners have felt just as awful, drawn close to God and enjoyed immediate relief. Instead of feeling totally upset, isolated or intimidated, he’ll soon be able to walk tall as a confident son of the Father, bearing his authority and strength.
That will make all the difference during his remaining time inside.
