On a recent hike, I looked up and saw vultures circling above the canyon where I was hiking. I sensed that I was watching something with a spiritual message. I paused my hike and watched the vultures. Vultures have a highly developed sense of smell. Vultures circle...
I have noticed a variety of redefinitions people use to describe God. He has been called The Great Spirit, The Divine, The Consciousness, The Essence, and The Cosmos. While God can reflect some of those names, He is very distinct. He is God the Father, and Jesus is...
Some things are worth contending over, such as the divinity and exclusivity of salvation in Jesus, the nature of God, and living a holy life. The remaining issues are not worth dividing the Church over, as they are merely matters of human opinion. Paul was...
In all the turmoil currently taking place on the world stage, keep your eye on Israel. Israel has been prophesied as the pivot point for all world history. In a dream last week, I saw a huge expanse representing all the nations of the Earth. It was a blank white...
The word “domesticated” as it applies to the domestication of animals means “to tame and keep as a pet.” Domestication also applies to people. It happens when we allow someone or something to tame our faith giving them permission to leash us and lead us around by...
In times of cultural upheaval, people get played by the offering of dreadful images and emotional comments that have no basis in fact. These falsehoods are crafted to attach to our bias. A bias wrapped in deception is a powerful motivator. It is so powerful it...
When the Lord was teaching His disciples how to pray, one line in the Lord’s Prayer is of special interest, “Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven” (Matthew 6:10). That single line in the prayer offers us insight into...
Imagine if you were one of the four NASA astronauts aboard the International Space Station (ISS) currently orbiting around the Earth with two Russian cosmonauts and one European astronaut. Yesterday, after increasing sanctions were placed on Russia for their invasion...
The pen is mightier than the sword unless some barbarian is trying to lop off your head. At that point, a sword is mightier until the threat is neutralized. This morning, a respected friend of mine posted the following: “AP reported last night Ukrainian President...
What has been held by God out of sight in the realm of the Spirit is being prepared for arrival. When we think the arrival of an intervention is impossible it means we have judged a circumstance by human standards, not by the will and heart of God. When I used to...
When global events take a dark turn, we all want to feel informed because in insecure times insight into what is happening can bring some level of comfort. The warring action of nations does not paint a full picture of what is taking place. In the middle of death and...
Life can be unstable and fragile at times. What we take for granted as part of normal life can be gone in a moment. In a developed nation, we can live in the illusion that all will be the same tomorrow. For example, as secure as our communication services appear to...
Of late, my dreams have become more intense and more prophetic in nature. Last night in a dream I was in my home. Other people were also present. It was mid-afternoon on a bright sunny day when the sky suddenly darkened to such an extent that I got up from...
Every deception has a process of acceptance. In that process and over time a deconstruction of truth will take place making the final acceptance of an error seem reasonable. At first, what is offered as a logical disassembly of our faith will pull apart historic truth...
