In 1949, when the Communist Party took over the nation of China, Mao Zedong assumed the role of national leadership over the newly established People’s Republic of China, a Marxist–Leninist single–party state–controlled political system. Counterrevolutionaries to the...
I watched an interview being conducted with a group of elders from a native tribe who live in the Arctic. These elders were sitting together in a field while they were being interviewed. There were no scientific measuring devices present. They recognized that...
I have an old book in my library written by a pastor in 1886. The title is “Quit the Meanness.” The pastor was writing about the kind of life that pleases God. To be mean is to be unkind, malicious, or cruel. It is the opposite of an attitude a believer should...
At least twice last night, something usual took place. It was unusual because I was not aware it was happening. Jan said she awoke two times to hear me prophesying over various people while I was asleep. She did not recall all the content, but they were personal words...
I have noticed something about people who literally change the world. They do not allow the fears and doubts of others to craft their message or construct their vision. They do not place their hope in any earthly system or institution. Their hope is anchored securely...
While there are many practical things we can do to minimize our contact with the deadly virus running rampant through our country, we can ignore the deadlier spiritual virus of fear that is also running rampant. The latter has a greater potential for death because it...
Be wise to which plow you place your hand. Some have plowed the wrong field in the wrong season planting the wrong seed. There are times when walking off a questionable field and seeking the Lord is the wisest course of action. It is better to lose the investment made...

Spiritual combustion takes place when we step over the threshold of an obstacle in faith, and enter a new realm of the Spirit. It is like an explosion of fire in the natural when smoldering embers deprived of oxygen are suddenly exposed to increased oxygen, and...
The traps set for you will come to no avail. The hands placing these traps in what was perceived as your weakest place was a tactical mistake. It was a mistake because the trap setters did not realize God's power is revealed most profoundly in our vulnerable places....
You have most likely heard the phrase, “If the election were held today…” Those words are typically followed by predictions based on data obtained at a given moment in time. This way of looking at life is not predictive. It is short-sighted and spiritually myopic....
The older I become, the more I find myself less impressed with human credentials. Educational achievement, financial portfolios, or professional alliances no longer tell me anything about a person. It is the condition of a person’s heart that is the most critical...
I always tell Jan she makes things better. Everything she touches becomes more peaceful, beautiful, and joyful. One area that receives the benefit of her touch is the way she regularly changes our bedding. Atop our bed is an array of big pillows and down comforters...
I've held off releasing this blessing written by Jan for a few days waiting for the right time. I sense today is the right time. Some have had challenging relationships with their earthly father or a father figure. Others are trying to help someone get healed...
