In Supernatural Courage, Mickey Robinson explored the topic of tapping into the power of supernatural courage and this courage can only come from our Creator. He explained how the Holy Spirit is always there to help us through all of our circumstances. The world is constantly bombarded with fear and many of us struggle with how to handle and deal with our fears. Mickey looks at one of the commandments found in Joshua 1:9 about fear. This talks about how God commands us to be strong and courageous, and God is with us wherever we go. Some of the courage topics he looked at was, “hope, be humble, fight, strengthen yourself, use spiritual gifts, forgive, preserve”, and much more. In the book, he looked at Biblical examples how they handle supernatural courage from God and some of these included Jesus, Joseph, David, Paul, Peter, Joshua, to name just a few.
In the book, he shared how he discovered his career in becoming a professional skydiver. He loved to live in the moment and loved the thrill he felt in jumping out of planes. He shared a personal story about how his life changed. One day, he took a trip with four other skydivers and two of them were rookies. The engine quit and the plane ended up crashing. Mickey revealed he was on fire and he ended up suffering from third-degree burns over his whole body, loss of using his right hand, a brain contusion, and blindness in his right eye. In the weeks to come he was down to 93 pounds and he had multiple infections. The doctors gave him no hope and his body functions started to shut down. He describes how he felt like he was dying and how he realized the power of Christ’s spirit was alive in him. He felt God healing him and the same power that raised Jesus was inside him. He explained how he declared how he was going to walk out of the hospital again and how he experienced supernatural courage from Jesus and he was able to walk again. He also shared how he had supernatural courage in believing and commanding blood to flow in his right hand to help revive the use of his hand. Miraculously, his right hand was healed and the doctor couldn’t believe it. He also goes into details about the healing he experienced in his right eye and how God gave him hope and caused his spirit to rise alongside with the use of the Holy Spirit.
I would recommend this excellent book on supernatural courage to anyone who is ready to discover the keys in relying on God’s power to assist you in overcoming and facing whatever life throws at you. I immensely connected with all of the stories that Mickey shared and even through his personal pain he still believed God for His incredible power to guide and help him through whatever he faced. One of my favorite examples, he revealed was the story about forgiveness and how he had to practice this during a difficult time. His son Michael was born with cerebral palsy and they always believed God would bring them a miracle. When he was 12 years old, they took him to a top specialist to help him with his back and spine. The surgery didn’t work and caused him to lose many more functions of his body. He explained the hurt and the malpractice of the doctor and medical staff and how he had to choose to extend mercy and forgiveness. I also liked how each chapter included meditation scriptures and promises found in the Bible, prayer, activation statements, and a declaration to say over your life and circumstances.
"I received this book free from the publisher, Bethany House/ Chosen for my honest review.”
