Those who want to change God’s word to accommodate their sins are being influenced by a spirit. That spirit has been called “the spirit of the age.” It wants to rewrite God’s word to comply with a degrading social norm. Sadly, for some in the Church, it has become...

Aligning people with their God-Defined identity.
GIVEN OVER
Sometimes, a person is so given over to sin that the consequence of their sin must run its course. It’s like what happened with Pharaoh, who laid upon Israel the bondage of slavery, and throughout his enslavement of God’s people, he and the nation suffered a course of...
PURSUING PEACE
Each night, before bed, I pray that the Lord will protect us during the night hours. Last night’s prayer was different. I was given the impression that I was to add something to my prayer in the form of a request. Knowing I am approaching the last lap of my earthly...
Stumbling the Plans of Hell
While our nation experiences a deepening cultural divide, and we are preoccupied with national issues, a significant arrangement of military forces are staging to confront and disempower the free nations of the world and usher in a dark agenda on a global scale. The...
Truth Mongers
There is a vast difference between being a fearmonger and someone who speaks a prophetic word of warning. The word “monger” is defined as someone who deals or trades in a specific commodity, as in a fishmonger or a fearmonger. A monger profits from the item they sell....
Living a Balanced Life
Jan and I were on a walk through our town. As we strolled along, I looked down at the pavement and noticed one of those small weights that get attached to the rim of a car wheel to balance its spin. When I saw the weight, I thought, “That car is out of balance.” If...
A Single Act of Courageous Integrity
In the coming months, we will see a world-class Olympic athlete refuse to perform in Communist China during the 2022 Olympics. This person will forfeit years of sacrifice and training for the greater good. The stance this person takes against a repressive regime will...
Adding an 8th Mountain
Bill Bright of Campus Crusade for Christ and Loren Cunningham of YWAM met in 1975 to discuss a word the Lord gave independently to each of them. They shared that the Lord said there were seven areas/spheres of cultural influence the Church needed to recognize and...
Discerning Prophetic Words
For the last few months, I have been considering the nature of prophetic words. Many believers have thought New Testament prophecy was somehow different than the prophetic words of the Old Testament. The same Lord spoke those words. His heart did not change between...
If It Were To Happen
Some of us could live to see the rise of a State Church in the United States. The previous sentence could sound alarmist to those who have not studied Church history under repressive regimes. Only Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever. All else...
Miraculous Hope for a Nation
In our current cultural climate, the thought of God doing profound miracles to supernaturally turn around a nation seems like folly to some – even believers who hold great respect for God’s Word, but no longer think miracles, signs, and wonders are the way forward,...
No Longer Tossed About
Lies have been offered to the Church so well-crafted they sound like the truth to those who have allowed these offerings to replace biblical authority. Messages are being preached to unsuspecting congregations who now consider these erred opinions as an acceptable...
Standing on the Wall
Before our culture went into lockdown, the Lord asked Jan and me to step into a season of extended solitary sabbatical. God was resetting our mission for the coming season. When the lockdown took place, it had little effect on us since we were already in a time of...
A Squirrel Safari
I always thought a squirrel was a squirrel. I was uninformed about the variety of squirrel species until I was invited last week to go on what could best be described as a squirrel safari. I packed up my .22 bolt action rifle and joined some friends, each with far...
The Blessing of Dismantled Assumptions
As we begin to emerge from this pandemic season where a significant dismantling of ministries has taken place, God will not reconstruct our broken concepts about His Kingdom or our preferred models of ministry that led us to this challenging place. He has something...
