"The following is God's revelation, as a soldier in Christ, why we need to Pray, Fast, and stand upon the Word of God in binding the earthly and heavenly authorities. Over the last fives years of liberation ministry, my theology has had to explain the spiritual promises inherited in Christ. I have come face-to-face with demons, witches, cocaine filled demoniacs, attempts upon my life, and spiritual attacks by territorial forces. I found that I needed to learn to Pray, Fast, and seek the Word for His will. I wanted to learn more about God's spiritual warfare and how I could better fight in His army. The battle we wage is not just a horizontal three dimensional fight, but we must pray the heavenlies in order to enlist the fourth dimension. The upward spiritual prayers enable us to seek God's will, the power of the Holy Spirit, and the authority of Jesus Christ. This is when God enlists the angels on our behalf to bind up the evil.Prayer is our weapon to battle the dark forces. As I share the stories of God's great protection and deliverance from evil, I hope to convey some practical principles that will assist you in wrestling the world rulers. These experiences have taught me this one thing, the heavenly battles belong to the Lord. It is my desire that you will take a step in learning the Why's? and the How's? of pursuing God through Prayer, Fasting, and the Word. It is only through unified prayers, fasting, and standing together that we are able to raise the shield of faith in defeating the enemies flaming arrows."

A successful legacy is best achieved by the skillful blending of the work of the ministry with the wealth of the giver around a common vision. Too often, ministries and givers never work together to develop their legacy plans, resulting in many ministries lacking the financial resources to effectively fulfill their calling. Why? Because the gift of giving has been tied up; held back; leashed. It is time for ministries to stop looking for donors to write them a check and begin to minister to those who have the gift of giving, helping them fulfill their calling to give. It is time to unleash the gift of giving. In Unleashing the Gift of Giving, through scriptural truths, practical insights, and engaging examples, Rusty Russell explains how a ministry can both minister in their calling and minister to the ones with the gift of giving. By doing this, ministries can unleash the gift of giving to provide the financial resources to accomplish their calling as well as build a sustainable ministry legacy that will survive the founder.
