Profound Good: See God Through the Lens of His Love Reviews
-
Profound Good by Blake K Healy follows on from his book The Veil. Once again he shows us how to tap into the spiritual gifts that God has for us.
Angels and demons are all around us. The gift of seeing with spiritual eyes was one that scared Blake K Healy as a boy but one that he embraced as he got older. This book has many personal stories in it.
The author encourages us to pursue the gifts that God has for us and to learn how to use them.
When we see the world as God sees it, it is a revelation. We will see far more than we expected to, when we look with the eyes of God.
Life is a spiritual battle. We need to keep our eyes fixed on Jesus because the enemy would like nothing better than to distract us and let fear rule our lives. We need to live by faith and not fear and to keep in step with God.
God is not just for Sundays. Where we go, He goes if we would just keep our hearts, minds and souls beating in step with His. We need to show others that Jesus is working through us.
There is a very moving account of when we pray for healing but it doesn’t happen. We all have questions, doubts and wobbles. Blake K Healy addresses these. It is comforting to know that we are not alone. The author gives us hope even though some questions will never be answered this side of eternity.
Profound Good was a very personable read. It is perfect for individual study or for use in connect groups. This book has the power to enhance our walk with God if we learn from its lessons and keep tapped into the Source.
I will leave you with this simple yet powerful sentence:
“God does not need me – He wants me.”
I received this book for free. A favourable review was not required and all views expressed are my own. -
This book was just as captivating and eye opening as the authors previous book "The Veil". Highly recommend reading these books in order, one immediately following the other.
It's amazing to me how much there is in the spirit realm that we are unaware of. I hope to aspire to see in the spirit in the same manner in which Blake talks about in his books. -
Wow! So much to digest. Surely, will need to read this again. Having read all three of his books, there is a desire to want more. Hence, rereading for deeper revelation of the Presence of God would benefit me.
In this book, you discover the purpose of why we have access to the Gifts of the Holy Spirit, why seeing in the spirit realm draws us closer to understanding what the Lord is doing, and reminding us of our authority we have over the works of the enemy.
There are a few books that I feel would push us further in building a solid understanding of God’s plans for our lives and this one is one of them. -
I enjoyed this, but it didn’t compare to Blake Healy’s other two books, in my opinion. Those were packed with revelation and I couldn’t stop listening…this one had some repetitive stories that I already heard from him, but still had some good nuggets nonetheless.

Gott ist vollkommen gut, das kommt auf jeder Seite dieses Buches zum Ausdruck. Leider habe ich die Bücher nicht in der richtigen Reihenfolge gelesen, es war aber kein Problem vom Verständnis oä. Was wirklich gut ist: auch wenn man dem Thema etwas ängstlich gegenüber steht, wird die Angst absolut genommen. Beeindruckende Biografie und Gabe, ich bin gespannt, was wir noch erleben dürfen mit unserem vollkommen guten Gott

Great book
This book is amazing. The stories are well communicated but honest. My only quibble is I wish I he had used more scriptures throughout to root his points but a basic understanding of the overall Biblical story really roots what he is saying in the truth of who God is. Read this book and invite God to reveal Himself to you... not for a gift that’s for the benefit of others but so that you can be fully released in your identity as His son or daughter :) -
O wow, this book! It made me realize how little we concentrate on the things that really matter and it also makes you want to focus more on the spiritual things. I recommend it!

I thought it was going to be a practical handbook on seeing angels. But no, It was just his personal experiences of doing so.
Disappointed. -
Follow up book to The Veil. I loved The Veil. Since reading it I have yet to sit through a church service without crying. And I *think* I liked this book even more than The Veil. I finished in 2 days. I have his third book on my shelf and will be picking it up as soon as possible.
The hardest and most painful thing about seeing in the spirit is seeing how abundantly God pours our His goodness on His people and how much of the goodness falls to the ground, unclaimed because we do not know it is there or ignored because we do not believe it is meant for us.
Every victory is celebrated in the halls of heaven, no matter how big or how small. Why? Because every victory has reverberations that go so much further than we can see.
What’s wrong with the idea that the Father saw fit to send someone to love you every day that you are here on this earth?… personal angels exist because God wanted every person on this planet to have someone whose some purpose was to love him or her well.
The fastest way to grow spiritually is to be completely satisfied with what He has given us while remaining desperately hungry for the promises we have yet to see fulfilled.
God is everywhere. His hand touches everything. Nowhere and no one is outside His reach. He has a perfect plan for everyone and everything. He has hopes and dreams for us that are leaps and bounds beyond our wildest dreams.
The most painful thing I see is how abundantly God releases His goodness on His people and how frequently that profound good goes unnoticed or unclaimed.
The only way to heal hope deferred is by taking the risk of hoping again.
God wants to know and be known by you. -
Reading Blake Healy’s second book was even more enjoyable than his first, and I think it’s PROFOUND how taking in his stories and experiences seeing in the spirit has impacted my understanding of who God is. And I didn’t realize it until I was reading from the Old Testament and noticed how I was hearing God’s voice in my mind as He spoke to people. Before, I had always wrestled with this God-of-judgement mindset, which was so hard to reconcile with the New Testament vision I had of Him. But finally the two have become one, and the depth of His love and goodness is so much more than I ever have and ever will understand here on earth. I expected this book to be a bunch of cool stories of seeing angels and demons, but what I got was a deeper understanding of a loving God who deeply desires relationship with me. And that alone makes this book 100% worth reading.

Loved how it all comes back to understanding God’s heart and his goodness. Found myself cynical at some parts but it usually quickly turned to awe at how I long to walk out life not just knowing but believing God’a character and who He says He is.
I wish there was more scripture but I did appreciate his honestly while writing the book and his own skepticism and questioning and how he walked that out with the Lord and it did challenge me to open my Bible & did into other theology books!
The writing is nothing special, mostly just stories, but his encounters are beautiful and I appreciated his thoughts to ponder after each section.
I’d read again & I’d recommend to those open to reading with discernment. -
A really cool book about a specific spiritual gift, seeing in the Spirit. I had no idea what that was until reading this book. I loved what the author said at the end of the book, "Seeing in the spirit is not the most important thing for you to achieve in your lifetime; relationship with God is". God has given us spiritual gifts to connect us with Him and to invite us to Him. Lastly, through what the author has seen about angels and God, has helped me see the heart and beauty of God in a new way, like in our pain God isn't covering it up, He isn't hiding from it or hiding it, He stands in the very center of it and remains good! And only God can introduce us to His profound goodness!!

Five stars, two thumbs up.... you get the point ☺️
I devoured this book just as quickly as I had inhaled Blake Healy’s first book, The Veil. It truly blessed me to read his visions of the spiritual activity occurring around people every day. Most importantly, Blake’s book clearly deposited a hunger to gain more understanding of God’s extravagantly loving nature towards us. I paused many times throughout the book to pray and ask God for something new I had learned to be possible. Such a blessing of a book, a true treat that Blake has shared his gifts with us. -
"The gifts of the Spirit are not mere tools, they are models and expressions of God's nature; pictures and signs of who He is and they work best when they function in alignment with the One who fashioned them. This goes well beyond good character and strong morals".....
"If you want to see miracles, if you want to see people healed, if you want to see angels, if you want to see the dead raise, if you want to see people come into His Kingdom by the thousands, if you want to see heaven on earth, then become a student of God's love."
This was very moving, easy 5 stars. -
I really loved this book!! I loved that it had tons of new information and insight from what he’s learned through his journey. There were a few key parts that really changed my thinking and challenged my thoughts on spiritual gifts. Indestructible is still my fav of his but this is in close second. Must read!
-
This book contains powerful stories that impact my heart, and important perspective on seeing in the spirit, and what the point of it all is: to come closer to God; to understand more about God; to feel his love, compassion, and fury on behalf of humanity. Beauty springs off the page. Even on a second reading, I shed a few tears!

Deeply Profound
Taking a journey through the spiritual dimension through Blake's eyes is always a treat. I really love the way he pairs his gift to see in the Spirit with God's goodness. It is inspiring and deeply moving. -
Awesome book
Blake Healy has a unique gift for not only telling his story of his encounters with the heavenly realm on earth but of drawing us deeper into a relationship with our loving father God. I highly recommend this book and his first “The Veil”. -
Blake not only has an amazing gift of seeing spiritual things, but his determination to converse with the Holy Spirit to learn about why things happen in the spirit realm is the bedrock of this transformational book.
-
This book is a great follow up to Blake’s previous book. The first book shows you the look at the spiritual realm. This book the builds on the knowledge by showing the steps to connect with God in this way yourself.
-
Shifting our perspective of Who God is can open the floodgates for freedom from so many things we struggle with today! This book gives us that chance. To see God in a new light for some and renew our sight for others to strengthen and build our trust in Him.
-
It was interesting reading about his walk seeing in the spiritual realm. It makes sense that in a world so colorful and biblically that people like Elijah and John could see such wonders. I was a bit skeptical about some parts, but also don’t want to undermine the possibility.
-
A stunning look into the spirit realm that invites you to know the One who orchestrates it all. This book drew me in and left me overwhelmed with more of God's loving nature than I could have imagined.
