From Battlefield to Breakthrough by Kristina Gibbons is a well-written book for readers struggling with the feeling of emptiness despite efforts to fully experience all that life has to offer. It offers readers a guide to understanding the enemy's operations and to building a profound relationship with God. Kristina begins by helping readers recognize their predicament so that they do not accept the Devil’s lies in place of God’s truth. However, before getting into the battlefield, consistency and understanding that God is not responsible for any difficult situation you are going through are important. She differentiates between delay and denial while enlightening readers on what they should do when a breakthrough has not yet come. This book further explores the concept of repentance, salvation, and prayer, as well as what open doors actually look like, among others.
I can hardly describe the positive impact this book had on me. It made me think of God's promises in the Bible and gave me comfort and healing through all the times I doubted my faith in God due to hardships. Kristina is an exceptional writer, grounded in the knowledge of the Bible, as she brilliantly applies Bible interpretation to real-life situations, which made this book engaging to me. I also loved that the author shared from her personal experience, which I found inspiring. The Bible references, prayer prompts, and questions were lovely because as I read, I could reflect and pray. Faith, prayer, repentance, hope, and other themes are covered in this book. The writing is straightforward, organized, and well-paced. I recommend From Battlefield to Breakthrough by Kristina Gibbons to believers who desire a genuine relationship with God.
