This week, cities in our nation are being shaken by riots. Los Angeles is at the top of the list of the cities being shaken. As concerning as such incidents are, a greater shaking will happen under the hand of God. All the earthly shaking we see taking place is...
Everything thing we hope for is invisible to the natural eye. These hoped-for outcomes remain hidden in our faith until God’s time for fulfillment is complete, and the promise is finally revealed. When the faith of Moses was being described, it was defined this way,...
Some book introductions can provide a wealth of information about the author. In 1980, a collection of writings by A.W. Tozer was assembled and titled "The Treasury of A.W. Tozer." In the book's introduction, it was said of Tozer, "Tozer marched to a different...
The first-century apostles meant business when they referred to the purity and exclusivity of Jesus Christ. It’s what led to their martyrdom. In the first decades of the Church, heresies arose that required the apostles to write letters to various churches warning and...
In times of insecurity, fear, or rebellion, we can take on the mannerisms and lifestyles of an identity that is not someone who walks with the Lord. We begin to blend in with the world around us and in the process, lose our distinction as sons and daughters of God....
Empires of lies are beginning to crumble. Global cabals that have worked in protected secrecy are being exposed and dismantled because of prayer and prophet declarations that have eroded their dark foundations. Never lose hope. The truth will always prevail.
We are living in a battle of opinions. Many of the opinions we hear are offered by loose cannons. Much of what is being said today in the public square is like a loose cannon aboard a sailing vessel. If a cannon is not properly secured to the deck of the ship when it...
Jan and I live along what is considered by many seismologists to be the most dangerous earthquake fault line in the world. It is called the Cascadia Subduction Zone. This fault line runs just off the coast of northern California, Oregon, Washington, and...
Yesterday, out in our dog kennel, a blossom appeared on a lilac shrub. The lilac and all the other plants and trees on our property have bare limbs. Spring is still weeks away. In our 20 years living here, we have never seen this happen before to have the leaves of...
Last night, I had a dream. In the dream, I saw an image of rats quickly and quietly abandoning a ship. I knew the image represented what is happening with alliances that were formed to put people in places of authority in our nation whose assignment it was to promote...
The Church in America stands at a point of crossing into a new future. That crossing will be seen historically as a point of no return where many of us had to make hard choices to keep our faith and sanity intact. There is a phrase born out of an event in history that...
I continue to see a sad reality taking place again and again in the lives of believers, mine included. It is the need to control. It's not how long we have “walked with the Lord” or what position we hold within the Church that determines our spiritual maturity. It is...
There is so much unfolding in our world that we do not fully understand. One thing is becoming clear to discerning minds, we are alive at the beginning of a series of changes that will reset everything in our world including how we will be allowed to live and conduct...
A few moments ago, I heard the Lord say, “The lid is coming off!” I sensed an urgency attached to what He said. The lid is coming off the containers that have been used to house the spoiled contents of deception in all its forms. The truth that has been suppressed...
