This weekend, more than 1,500 demonstrations have been planned to take place across America. The event has been titled “No Kings – Nationwide Day of Defiance.” While a day of protest is not out of line with our freedom to express our differing views, there is...
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,...
A slumbering Church is being awakened. In our contentment of spiritual sleep, we have not been able to see the deeper realities taking place in the world. The closed eyelids of our slumber have blinded us to truths only realized through revelation. Something unusual...
Yesterday, I experienced extreme road rage. Not just someone who flipped me off and drove off, but an aggressive driver whose actions could have killed me and others. I was traveling on I-5 the major north-south freeway in Oregon. The section I was driving was in the...
The greater the distance one is removed from the reality of what is taking place, either by geography or relationship, the greater the chance their understanding of reality can become distorted. While it is good to be what many define as “informed”, we should never...
In the coming generations, the idols people worship will not be made of stone or wood. They will be super-humans elevated to God-like status through genetic manipulation and engineering. We need to pray for future generations of the Church who will face issues that...
A few weeks ago, Jan and I were invited to participate in a regional prophetic roundtable. The attendees were leaders from Oregon and Southwest Washington who were known for their prophetic insight. It was an honor to be with them. Before the gathering, each of us was...
The voices that have mocked, dismissed and labeled people as conspiracy theorists are beginning to experience an uncomfortable awakening to reality. Those who listened to the voices that declared a prepared deceptive narrative believing it to be true are now at a...
New prophetic voices are speaking from the summit of the mountains of cultural influence. These voices don’t sound like the prophets who live and speak from within the mountain of religion. They do not prophesy using familiar religious language or imagery. In the next...
Some of the petals from the bouquet of past revelations have begun to wither. It is time for a fresh word from the Lord for a new season. I enjoy buying a fresh bouquet of flowers for Jan from time to time. I love the look on her face when I return home with a bouquet...
I once spoke to the leader of a church movement in Europe. He made a comment about the subject of abortion, “That is something we don’t even talk about anymore.” He made that comment as his nation slipped deeper into deception and depravity while its citizens...
While the world is spinning out of control and moving toward greater expressions of darkness, we need to reexamine our moorings. Like a ship resting in a safe harbor, we can only remain in that safe place if the lines of our spiritual moorings have been made secure in...
A strong windstorm blew through our area last night. It blew down dead limbs hanging in trees and deposited loads of debris in our yard. It also tipped over two chairs in our front yard. I felt led to take a photo of the upended chairs. As soon as I clicked the photo,...
Some of the most dangerous and compromising words we can utter in a time of crisis are “I was just following orders.” Those words have been used in war crime trials as a justification for immoral actions that would later be condemned by reasonable people after a...
