When the Lord releases the winds of change, its influence will begin to blow through the Church and culture. What is not secured by God's wisdom will be blown away by the presence of truth. When the winds of change begin to blow, we have a choice to make. We can hold...

A TIME OF RESET AND REDIRECTION
So much is happening in our culture and within the Church. Leaders are rising and falling. This is a time of resetting when people will have an opportunity to let God heal them of their fantasies and foolishness to align with His heart. That reset will redirect us...
EMPOWERED BY THE SPIRIT
In 1961, I remember being an 11-year-old boy walking with my father toward the 18th hole at the Pebble Beach golf course. I watched him sink his final putt to win the California State Handicap Championship. After my father sank his final putt, he was led to a white...
Everything Working Together
I have lived long enough to know that God will work out all things for good in due time. I have also lived through several seasons of history that have been assigned apocalyptic endings, and frankly, none of them panned out as they were darkly predicted. No matter how...
Preparing Our Witness
Whichever way the Presidential election goes, a day will soon come when a winner is finally declared. On that day, emotions will run even higher than they are now, no matter who wins. Today, the wise will begin to prepare how they will express their faith to the world...
Two Megaphones
This morning, I saw a brief but poignant image from the Lord. I saw a huge megaphone that was broadcasting falsehoods, treachery, and lies. The script was well-crafted, reasonable to undiscerning ears, and was becoming more and more accepted by those who listened only...
Prayer From God’s Throne
If we do not know how to pray from God’s throne declaring opinions adjudicated from the Courts of Heaven upon the Earth, we will continue to pray from a limited understanding and narrow insight wondering why the course of history is not shifting toward righteous...
Portion Control
This is a time to become lean in our faith. Many things are being offered on the plate of our lives. If these things are not portion-controlled, they will add layers of confusion and inhibit our ability to move at the speed of faith. Yesterday, as Jan and I were...
Let God Make Room For You
I remember the first time I was asked to write a personal bio for a ministry position. I had never written a personal biography before. As I wrote, I was trying to cover all the bases I thought someone would need to read to make me sound credible with a bit of wishful...
The Rise of Activist Clergy
A pre-awakening is moving across our nation. A slumbering Church is being roused. Pastors and leaders of movements are sensing the critical nature of this hour and are beginning to realize their leadership responsibilities may include speaking the truth in love to...
Fragments of Something Larger
There are times when I have received a prophetic word or a word of knowledge that I wondered if I should share it. Not everything we hear from the Lord is meant for publication. It happened yesterday. I posted a word about two revelations coming. It was just a...
God’s Clock
Every morning, I do an exercise called the plank. It strengthens my core. The exercise wasn't fun when I started doing it a few years ago, but now, I look forward to it each day and have been able to increase my time while holding the plank position. This morning, I...
God Outcomes
When uttered, a single comment reveals a person's lack of understanding regarding human history. It also limits the inclusion of a contradicting narrative to what they have been told to believe. That comment is, "This has never happened before." When God is involved,...
11:11
Last night, Jan and I went to bed earlier than normal. After a few hours of sleep, I rolled over and saw the illuminated display on our clock, showing the time of 11:11. Normally, it would mean nothing to me, but I sensed a significance associated with the number. I...
In The Coming Weeks
In the coming weeks, my hope and prayer will be that we, as people of faith, would not join the mocking and dismissing chorus of a nervous culture. God does His most significant work behind the scenes and outside the limited scope of natural thinking that produces...
