Insights from the Book

This is a 192 pages book that focuses entirely on helping the readers understand and embrace the purpose of God for their lives. Murdock asserts that the key to successful living is discovering the purpose for which one is created. This is what he refers to as “The Assignment” in this book. He recommends that everyone’s assignment is to solve an existing problem in this world. He explores this thesis with 31 powerful secrets. He had personally studied and taught these 31 principles for over 30 years. Studying these 31 keys with the accompanying scriptures will bring anyone out of where he/she is to where God intended him/her to be. Among other things, you will discover in this book that: Your assignment is not your decision, but your discovery; your assignment is geographical in nature; What you hate is a clue to something you are assigned to correct; you will only succeed when your assignment becomes an obsession; what you love most is a clue to your assignment; your assignment may contain seasons of insignificance; your assignment will take you where you are celebrated instead of tolerated; and your assignment may require unusual and unwavering trust in a Man or Woman of God.

This book is  appropriate for use as a devotional manual for 31 days for individuals or as a family studying a chapter per day and taking appropriate decision on each of the principles.
