    About this ebook

    God is in control—always.


     


    The world is hurting, and people are living in fear. We want to feel the comfort of God's arms wrapped around us, but with so much uncertainty, how do we trust in Him?


    Heidi Baker interviewed a number of courageous believers, asking them what challenges they have overcome with God's help. Inspired by their resilience, trust, tenacity, and joy, Heidi recounts the extraordinary true stories of men and women who fixed their eyes on Jesus and never gave up in God's Got This.


    Heidi also vulnerably shares some of her deepest fears and most difficult experiences, revealing how she, too, learned to overcome life's trials through faith in God and trust in His Word.


    Let this collection of powerful stories move you and remind you that no matter what storms you face, God's got this.

      God's Got This - Heidi Baker

      INTRODUCTION

      I’ve been deeply inspired by the anointed and powerful lives of men and women who fix their eyes on Jesus through the trials of life and never give up, knowing God’s got this. We interviewed courageous believers and asked them, What did you overcome with God’s help? The following forty stories are authentic responses. We vulnerably share our deepest fears and the hardest parts of some of the most challenging times of our lives. I’ve been profoundly impacted by The Passion Translation, so we’ve chosen to mostly use this fresh, heart-level translation of the Bible.

      The resilience, trust, tenacity, intimacy, and joy that my friends have expressed through their extraordinary stories are powerful testimonies that are not only moving but also reassuring that God’s utterly totally, and always got this. My prayer, from Philippians, is that you would Tell [God] every detail of your life, then God’s wonderful peace that transcends human understanding, will make the answers known to you through Jesus Christ. So keep your thoughts continually fixed on all that is authentic and real, honorable and admirable, beautiful and respectful, pure and holy, merciful and kind. And fasten your thoughts on every glorious work of God, praising him always (Philippians 4:6–8).

      DAY 1

      Share and Care

      If you keep my commands, you will live in my love, just as I have kept my Father’s commands, for I continually live nourished and empowered by his love.

      JOHN 15:10

      My first days in Mozambique were extremely difficult. The nation was war-torn, the streets lined with burned cars and destroyed buildings. A Bible school allowed me to stay in their building but only for three nights. Rolland, Elisha, and Crystalyn hadn’t arrived yet, and there were no cell phones to call anyone. I had nowhere to stay, and I was quickly running out of money and food. I sat outside in the dirt near a water spigot, crying out to Jesus for help and leaning on God alone.

      Something inside of me knew that God had called us to this nation. I knew He wanted me to learn the language of the people and the language of the Holy Spirit, and I knew that He would lead us. Near that spigot, I sensed He wanted me to trust Him more. I remembered how He always provided for us before. Suddenly a woman with her hair in a bun, wearing a long, flowered skirt and tennis shoes ran up and tossed me a set of keys. She asked me to take care of her flat while she traveled up north. She told me to eat the food so that the rats wouldn’t get it. I assumed she was a missionary, but she left without even telling me her name or where her flat was. It was wild. I had the keys but no address.

      I asked for help from a man standing nearby. We could barely communicate, but when he said his name was Lazarus, I knew we’d be okay. He knew the woman and helped me find her flat. There were no road signs, but we somehow made it to her place just after the gas dial hit zero. As I opened the door, I burst into tears. I had barely slept in three days because car thieves continually triggered my truck’s alarm. I was too exhausted to eat. I just slept. After that, Lazarus and his wife became my dear friends. Along with the street children, they helped teach me their languages. They showed me the beauty and patience of the Mozambican people.

      During this process, my trust in God reached a new level. The Lord is in control. He will take care of us. If He asks you to do something, He is going to provide for you. He is going to make a way for you, but He wants you to learn the language of the Holy Spirit. God Himself will help you fulfill your assignment. He also calls you to minister with those in the body of Christ that He is calling to work alongside of you.

      Right now, believers all over the world can learn from the believers in the book of Acts. We need to continue sharing like they did: in a radical way. This sharing is also a beautiful part of Mozambican culture; even people who are extremely poor share what they have. I believe we are living in an unprecedented time of ever more merciful sharing and compassionate caring across the body of Christ worldwide.

      Jesus, show me what love looks like here on earth. Holy Spirit, empower me to be merciful, generous, and compassionate. I trust in your eternal faithfulness. Draw me into your heart and open my eyes to see those who are in need.
