After years of working in international missions, I learned how to adapt to long flights across oceans and continents. What I did on long flights was go into what I called airplane mode. In airplane mode, I trained myself to adapt my mind and body to experience a...
A resetting of the prophetic movement is taking place. The Lord continually resets the Church to its original purpose because we have a tendency to wander. Resets are not comfortable. They challenge our assumptions and return us to God’s original purposes. Some are...
King David had become frustrated at what he was seeing and experiencing in the city where he lived. In his desperation, he cried out to God, “Please listen and answer me, for I am overwhelmed by my trouble” (Psalm 55:2). While the historical context is different, the...
A prophetic word from the Lord, a word issued by Jesus, the One who is the Spirit of prophecy, has more impact than all the accumulated insight from the supposed experts and pundits who beg for our attention. These experts and pundits claim to have the answers to all...
Ten years ago, I injured my knee. I had to have surgery to repair the injury. Following the surgery, I went through a few months of physical therapy. As I was undergoing physical therapy, I was a bit unsteady on my feet. During one of the therapy sessions, my...
This morning, I began reading the book of Revelation. As the world considers yet another war – a war with global implications - its words seem appropriate for this time in history. One hindrance to understanding what John wrote is the systematic forms of theology and...
The greatest enemies of God’s truth are in the Church, not in the world. These are deceptive teachers we sit under as they teach lies, having departed from the truth and leading people astray. Jude issued a warning for all Christ-followers, “I must write about...
Last night, Jan and I watched a few episodes of an Amazon TV series titled On Call. If rough language and intense scenes are not something you want to hear or see, I suggest you keep scrolling. To me, as a former cop, this show is about as real as it gets. As the...
Each year in June for the last 40 years, Medford, Oregon, has hosted the Medford Cruise. The Cruise t is a display of vintage cars and a drive through the city. This year, there were hundreds of vehicles of all types on display. As I do each year, I pay a visit to the...
Because June is “Pride Month,” which was set aside to support the gay and lesbian lifestyle and all iterations of that deception, it is essential to know to whom biblical correction was addressed. Peter issued his warning to those living in the New Covenant. His...
For those of you who have suffered loss for doing good, God has a plan to restore what was taken from you. But first, you need to understand this truth because it will give you hope when hope is nowhere to be found, “Humble yourselves under the mighty power of God,...
For the last few decades, I have witnessed people depart from the truth of God’s word to embrace human imagination. These imaginations have led people to accept what is not acceptable according to God’s word. Apostle Peter quoted the prophet Isaiah, “People are like...
This weekend, more than 1,500 demonstrations have been planned to take place across America. The event has been titled “No Kings – Nationwide Day of Defiance.” While a day of protest is not out of line with our freedom to express our differing views, there is...
This week, cities in our nation are being shaken by riots. Los Angeles is at the top of the list of the cities being shaken. As concerning as such incidents are, a greater shaking will happen under the hand of God. All the earthly shaking we see taking place is...
Everything thing we hope for is invisible to the natural eye. These hoped-for outcomes remain hidden in our faith until God’s time for fulfillment is complete, and the promise is finally revealed. When the faith of Moses was being described, it was defined this way,...
