An awakening and commissioning of young prophets and apostles is taking place in our nation. One young and prominent one has fallen, yet thousands will now rise to take the Church and our nation to areas where the fulfillment of God's will is made visible for all to...

THE PATHWAY OF INTEGRITY
Integrity is not just the result of making the right choices. It creates a pathway that is marked by our choices to love and honor God. After Joseph was sold into slavery by his brothers, he was brought to Egypt, where he was purchased as a slave by a man named...
REDEEMING PRONOUNS
We've been told the word "they" is a divisive word. For some, the word has become a social cuss word, describing its usage as something divisive and to be avoided. If a person's heart is not in tune with God's Spirit, it could be interpreted that way. It wasn't...
BREAKING THROUGH
Yesterday while in worship, I saw the words “break-through” printed out before me in the Spirit. We normally combine the two words into one, but this time, they were distinctly revealed as two words. I asked the Lord why He had separated one word into two. He said...
SEEDS OF PROMISE
There are principles relating to the fulfillment of God's promises in the Old Testament that carry over into our current experience. The principles of a fulfilled promise remain the same today because they come from the heart of God. The prophet Haggai spoke a word...
A PLACE FOR DEMONS
Idol worshippers across history have not always realized the idols they worshipped would become inhabited by the demons their idols represented. Their worship invited demonic spirits to come and occupy their idols. In I Corinthians 8:4 Paul wrote,” We all know that an...
WHEN LOSS AND UNCERTAINTY ARRIVE
No life is free from times of loss and uncertainty. How we see our life in those times, and more importantly, how we see God, will define our faith. As Habakkuk surveyed his life and saw the hand of God at work in the nations, it greatly affected him, “I trembled...
INTERRUPTING A DOWNWARD SLIDE
In the Spirit, I saw a long sheet of plastic that had been placed on a grassy slope to reduce friction and increase the speed of those descending the slope. The slide had become a form of recreation. I saw someone line up to take their turn sliding down the slippery...
WHEN SILENCED VOICES BEGIN TO SPEAK
It has been said that censorship is the last refuge of the weak. It is the evidence of a dying institution that seeks to retain control. To keep censorship alive, all opposing voices must silenced so that control can continue to be exercised to keep their illusions...
THE NUMBERS DON’T MATCH
This week, 12 million people were found to still be on the Social Security roles and drawing benefits. Only a very small number of people, only in the hundreds, are over 120 and still alive. There is a parallel to our theology and what we have been led to believe is...
WHEN WE HAVE BEEN ACCUSED
Over the years, maybe like some of you, fellow believers have accused me of various things. I’ve had labels attached to me created by someone’s misunderstanding and premature judgment. These accusers are a very small group of people who see this world through their...
WHAT THE LORD REQUIRES
The Lord brings correction to His people from time to time, especially those who claim to speak for God. To do this the Lord used the prophet, Micah. Micah preached to both Israel and Judah during the same time as Isaiah. He denounced both kingdoms' oppression,...
OUR PERFECT PLUMB LINE
The prophet Amos wrote about something called a plumb line. A plumb line is a construction tool used by builders. It uses a weight attached at the bottom of a rope or string that employs gravity to provide a straight up and down measurement. Once aligned, a builder...
RECALIBRATING OUR VOICE
Some believers have allowed their anger and disgust to become a condemning voice within the Church. They are using their undisciplined emotions to employ the same tactics and labels used by arrogant news media sources and biased social media commentators. In the...
STRUCK
This morning, I brought Jan flowers, a card, and a gift to honor her on Valentine’s Day. I am thinking back fifty-five years ago to our first date. One night, I entered the cafeteria at Multnomah University, where we were students, then known as Multnomah School of...
