The Power of a Believing Remnant

Deception is so powerful that it will cause people to proudly resist the call to repent, even as they are being judged for their sin.

Morals Matter

The morality of the Church must first and foremost be motivated by God’s love and grace.

When the Spirit Comes

Believing in Jesus is our spiritual anchor for understanding what is true and what is error.

Destroying the Evidence

When the ones who have attempted to silence the truth think they have won, a resurrection will occur, and the evidence of the truth will be revealed.

A Ministry of Reduction

We have adopted the world’s standards of what success looks like, and in the process, we disconnected ourselves from what matters most to God.

Gentle Jesus, Meek and Mild

A representation of the Lord that always remains meek, mild, and sadly, silent, amid human suffering does nothing to bring about change.

Taking a Stand

The display of God’s truth is not just for us; it’s for the current rejectors of God’s truth who need to experience the Lord’s redemption.

The Missing Ingredient

Some forms of healing only take place when the demon creating the affliction is openly challenged and its authority is confronted.

Neglecting Evil Spirits

Only by discovering and casting out the hidden demonic influencer can a person be truly set free.

Positioned For a Promise

If God has promised something, we need to begin moving toward its place of fulfillment or stay put until the Lord makes Himself known.

The Sound of Fools

A fool will misinterpret the death of a man like Charile Kirk and join with the mocking crowd.

The Fear of God

There are elements in a healthy fear of God we must understand because, without its influence, we will not experience what God wants for us.

The Deep State

We have been called to concentrate our fight first in the spiritual realm through prayer.

Our Only Hope

The rapid advancement of AI into realms of unexplored creativity will create the stage for that revival.

Silent Watchdogs

They have departed from God’s word and are not teaching the full spectrum of the Lord’s heart, warnings included.

A Watchman’s Warning

If someone is a watchman, they need to be courageous enough to ignore the warnings to remain silent.

Never Enough

Following the money will dismantle our illusions and cause us to question some things we’ve been told to believe without question.

By the Spirit

Jesus will make everything new, even how we see and measure God’s timing.

One Final Appeal

The deceptions afflicting the Church today come via “smooth talk and glowing words” tailored to deceive God’s people.

Enemies Among Us

There will come a judgment against these false teachers who follow their natural instincts, not the Spirt.

The Lord is After Nations

They are mocking voices crafted by the news media and progressive believers who have abandoned the faith to embrace a lesser god. 

A Stumbled Faith

Be cautious about adopting a cavalier attitude towards what is true or false, thinking we are the arbiters of that choice.

When All Seems Lost

God will lift you from this place of despair, and you will know how much He has cared for you in these troubling times.

When Fear is Removed

When we no longer allow fear to rule our hearts, God can do great things through us, leaving behind a legacy of spiritual courage.

Maintaining a Cutting Edge

To receive the benefits of our faith in this life, we need to make sure the blade of our faith remains sharp and not allow it to become dull.

Getting Specific

To leave God and Jesus undefined among all the unredeemed descriptions of who He is misses the point of our calling.

Tithing the Heart of God

When we give with a committed and generous heart, our giving will become “A sweet-smelling sacrifice that is acceptable and pleasing to God.”

Quenching the Spirit

Miracles are waiting to be released if we hear the Lord and follow His instructions.

Our Point of Departure

At some point, each of us will have to decide that this world and all its promises of false hope and fulfillment are a lie.

When the Veil is Removed

Only when the veil of disbelief is removed can we begin to live a truly transformed life in all areas of our lives.

Discerning Spirits

The gift of discerning spirits, the ability to distinguish between heresy and truth, is not popular in some circles of the Church.

The Foolish Plan of God

The power of God was the only thing that could break the hold of demonic entities sent to foster disbelief and disobedience to the will of God.

Out of Nothing

Never underestimate the power of the smallest seed of faith.

Discerning the Fear of God

When a fear of God is at work, they will realize they need a Redeemer who can save them and deliver them from evil.

Wolves Among the Sheep

Spiritual shepherds must be on guard at all times regarding their integrity, or a shepherd can become a wolf.

Demanding Our Rights

The Lord used Paul’s challenge of his abuse as a Roman citizen to lead him into new territory where the Gospel would be declared.

The Theft of Faith

But without a believing faith, we become vulnerable to hell’s attempt to rob us of what the Lord has given to us.

Soaked In New Wine

His drenching presence in and upon us will become an offense to those who have settled for a clean and respectable form of faith.

Reporting for Duty

Our preparation is a mix of heart preparation and the ability to employ the weapons of spiritual warfare.

Beyond Fear

Trusting God will produce fearlessness in the presence of the circumstances that are creating our fear.

The Next Healing Move of God

The Lord is about to perform miracles through His people who are willing to step out in faith and pray for the sick.

Riding the Wild Bronc of Change

If we hold onto the reins of our calling and choose to stay in the saddle, we will emerge from a disruptive and uncertain season more secure in our calling.

Just One Drop

As soon as the first drop of Jesus’ blood was spilled, our redemption was secure.

The Problem with Old Oil

The Lord requires fresh oil each day to fill our lives, helping us not to become complacent in our faith.

The Danger of Our Obsessions

The Lord will give us a greater understanding of the world around us and offer us a deeper mercy for those with whom we may disagree.

Angels On Assignment

An angel in all its majesty and splendor is a servant of God who has been sent on assignment to help God’s people.

Saboteurs of Our Faith

Fighting against the spirit of the age requires that we place our trust in the Lord and His word even when our faith is being brutally attacked.

Only as Long as We Allow It…

We can stand in the gap for all those involved and pray that God would do whatever He needs to sanctify His Bride and clean up His House.

Pursuing Peace

The peace of God gives us an understanding heart so we can navigate the events and relationships of our lives with greater clarity.

Discerning the Dark Arts

There is so much taking place in this world that the Church needs to discern so we can move forward with God and not be hindered by the plans of darkness.

Beyond Time and Space

Only the Lord can move us past the limitations of time and space to experience the unlimited realm of Heaven.

The Trail of Life

Each life has a trail of experiences that will be used by the Lord to reveal His calling in our lives.

Selling Out

The Lord is after those things in our lives that will attempt to satisfy our immediate needs at the expense of living a life of honor and truth.

Gaining a Heavenly Perspective

The life of a follower of Jesus is not to be spent looking only at our immediate life and its concerns and sleeping through life unaware.

Our New Name

In the New Covenant, where the Lord called His followers His friends, we need to relate to each other as friends of God.

Protecting the Sacrifice

Disbelief releases spiritual vultures that will come in an attempt to consume our sacrificial act of faith. 

A Great Dismantling

To align with what the Lord is doing in this dismantling process requires that we maintain a redemptive heart.

Breaking Through

A breaking apart of what is contrary to His will must take place before we can move forward into something new. 

Broken and Willing

None of us can carry the prestige and power of our position in life without the presence of humility.

A Tug on Your Sleeve

Those who have seen God do the impossible will reach out to us, “Please let us walk with you, for we have heard that God is with you” 

A Place for Demons

While these representations do not look like a physical image of a person or thing, they do reveal where a person has placed their trust.

Our Perfect Plumb Line

Am I willing to continue to align myself with Jesus, the ultimate plumb line of my spiritual life.

Recalibrating Our Voice

We can too easily get caught up in an emotional season of life and toss away one of the fruits of the Spirit – self-control.

Holding On

What we take hold of will determine the level of our security in times of great shaking.
