God's Remedy for Rejection

Derek Prince (1915–2003) was born in Bangalore, India, into a British military family. He was educated at Eton College and Cambridge University (B.A. and M.A.) in England and later at Hebrew University, Israel. As a student, he was a philosopher and self-proclaimed atheist. He was elected a fellow at King's College, Cambridge. While in the British Medical Corps during World War II, Prince began to study the Bible as a philosophical work. Converted through a powerful encounter with Jesus Christ, he was baptized in the Holy Spirit a few days later. This life-changing experience altered the whole course of his life, which he thereafter devoted to studying and teaching the Bible as the Word of God. At the end of World War II, he remained where the British Army had placed him—in Jerusalem. He and his family saw the rebirth of the state of Israel in 1948. In the late ’50s, he served as principal of a college in Kenya. In 1963 Prince immigrated to the United States and pastored a church in Seattle. Stirred by the tragedy of John F. Kennedy’s assassination, he began to teach Americans how to intercede for their nation. In 1973 he became one of the founders of Intercessors for America. His book Shaping History through Prayer and Fasting has awakened Christians around the world to their responsibility to pray for their governments. Many consider underground translations of the book as instrumental in the fall of communist regimes in the USSR, East Germany, and Czechoslovakia. Until a few years before his death at the age of 88, Prince traveled the world, imparting God’s revealed truth, praying for the sick and afflicted, and sharing his prophetic insights into world events in the light of Scripture. He wrote over 45 books, which have been translated into over 60 languages and distributed worldwide. He pioneered teaching on such groundbreaking themes as generational curses, the biblical significance of Israel, and demonology. Derek Prince Ministries, with its international headquarters in Charlotte, North Carolina, continues to distribute his teachings and to train missionaries, church leaders, and congregations through its worldwide branch offices. It is estimated that Derek Prince’s clear, non-denominational, non-sectarian teaching of the Bible has reached more than half the globe through his books, tapes, and daily radio program, Keys to Successful Living. Internationally recognized as a Bible scholar and spiritual patriarch, Derek Prince taught and ministered on six continents for over seven decades. In 2002 he said, It is my desire—and I believe the Lord’s desire—that this ministry continue the work, which God began through me over sixty years ago, until Jesus returns.”Prince, Derek is the author of 'God's Remedy for Rejection' with ISBN 9780883688649 and ISBN 0883688646.
