You have an enemy... and hes dead set on destroying all you hold dear and keeping you from experiencing abundant life in Christ. Whats more, his approach to disrupting your life and discrediting your faith isnt general or generic, not a one-size-fits-all. Its specific. Personalized.

Each chapter will guide you in crafting prayer strategies that hit the enemy where it hurts, letting him know youre on to him and that you wont back down.

Each chapter exposes the enemys cruel, crafty intentions in all kinds of these areas, then equips and encourages you to write out your own personalized prayer strategies on tear-out sheets you can post and pray over yourself and your loved ones on a regular basis.

  Product Description Hardcover:  160 pages Publisher:  The Lyons Press; 1st edition (October 1, 2000) Language:  English     With three Masters jackets in the closet and PGA, British, and U.S. Open trophies on the shelf,  Gary Player, among golf's most genial and authoritative personalities, has a record that speaks for itself and a contagious respect for the game. All of that is on display in  The Complete Golfer's Handbook, which is really less a handbook than a comprehensive introduction to golf--and it's attractive enough to leave on the coffee table. First published in Britain in 1999, the  Handbook  is a lushly illustrated and informative guide to golf's essentials--its history, rules, equipment, etiquette, strategies, and various forms of competition, along with some insight, given Player's second career as a course designer, into what makes a fair and challenging golf course. Good stuff, to be sure, and there's not a player anywhere, regardless of handicap, who won't pick up a nugget or two. But Player is Player; on the links he always played to his strengths, which he built through physical and mental preparation second to no one's. The  Handbook  offers Player himself demonstrating his quintessential warm-up system, practice drills and games, and conditioning exercises--all the routines a savvy golfer should partake in before ambling to the first tee. Following Player's physical fitness methods won't bring you a green jacket, but will certainly improve your game, outlook, flexibility, and endurance. Of course, if by some fluke you do manage to win the Masters, Player will have you so fit when you try the jacket on for size that you'll actually be able to button it.   Condition   Like New:  A book that looks new but has been read. Cover has no visible wear, and the dust jacket  is included for hard covers. No missing or damaged pages, no creases or tears, and no underlining/highlighting of text or writing in the margins. May be very minimal identifying marks on the inside cover. Very minimal wear and tear. dust jacket has a few minor tears
