    About this ebook

    When you are struggling to belong or identify with something, a group or someone, "Don't be deceived, my dear Brethren, Every good and perfect gift comes from the Father, the creator of heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows" (James 1:16-17). We face and succumb to a lot of pressure in the environment in which we live, work and play. The pressure to 'identify with' or 'belong to' momentarily distracts, shifts our focus and takes us away from God's sanctuary and His will for us. Dwelling in God's Sanctuary is an inspirational book that describes the author's experiential testimony and faith walk woven into Psalm 15. When the author's foot was slipping and she struggled to belong, the love of God supported her and brought her back into His true sanctuary and holy place.

      Dedication

      To the Loving, Caring and Inspiring Children that God has blessed me with, Pinremola, Omotola and Oluseun, you will continue to sparkle in God’s sanctuary like jewels in a crown.

      Foreword

      It is such a great delight to find out that in the present Christian milieu where we have come to a point of permissiveness and lack of depth in our spiritual pursuits, despite our prosperity messages and quick fix one night stand Christianity the big question pops up from Psalm 15

      Who shall dwell in the Lord’s Sanctuary? This unique question has drawn Olusola to give a short but precise exposition on The Lord’s Sanctuary. There can never be a more perfect time to redirect the mind of all who seek to worship God in spirit and in truth to the very need to build up our character and life in such a way that will make us live on this earth and eventually reign with our Lord eternally. I recommend this book to all those who seek to hide in the name of the Lord our God, and despite all the distractions of this world have chosen not to eat the kings meat as in the days of Daniel.

      The book is simple enough for you to understand, instructive enough for you to follow, inspiring enough to inspire you and it’s centred on the Word of God such that it will help you to get to heaven.

      Have a good time as you read it and may your life never remain the same after reading it.

      Yours in His Service,

      Very. Rev. Opeyemi Awe
