Review: God Always Says Yes


God Always Says Yes
God Always Says Yes by Sue Sikking

My rating: 5 of 5 stars



I am fortunate enough to have one of the original hard bound versions of this book. My father gave it to me after I had gotten married and began to be a student of the success classics.

In a previous review of “How Five Used Truth” by Emilie Cady, I relayed the story of how my father introduced me to these types of authors. At the time that he’d given me this book from his library, I had already read many of the works of Catherine Ponder, Robert Collier, Wallace Wattles, James Allen, Prentice Mulford and others.

“God Always Says Yes” by Sue Sikking is a reinforcement of the core truths outlined in most of these works. Because I had a foundation built on the Bible and on these other works, I was immediately able to understand and assimilate Sikking’s message.

The most impactful chapter for me was “The Law Of God Is Completion”. It outlines many of the standard elements such as the law of vibration, attraction, rhythm, polarity and others that would be recognizable to readers of this genre. It could easily be an inspiration for “The Secret” by Rhonda Byrne.

As I state in all of my reviews of books of this nature, you do not have to suspend your beliefs systems, but use them as a foundation to understand the process we have been engrafted with by The Creator. As a Christian, this book aligns with my core beliefs and things I have been taught and read. Sikking uses Bible chapter and verse throughout, but in my opinion, not in an over-the-top fashion. There are elements of the book that would remind you of Deepak Chopra’s “Seven Spiritual Laws Of Success”.

Do not mistake this for a simple “prosperity message” but a guide to living a well-balanced life – connected to God.

The book is holding up but well-worn from time and use…one generation to the next. While my children are grown and have had me and my father as “living witnesses”, I will eventually pass this down.

If you are fortunate enough to find this book…I would strongly suggest reading it.
