WHAT WE CELEBRATE
Just because someone celebrates something that is opposed to God’s will doesn’t mean we are required to join in that celebration to prove our love for them. It's one thing to walk humbly and lovingly with those living in opposition to the truth of God’s word, it is...
FUTURE HARVEST
Two years ago, the walnut tree that shaded our backyard from the summer heat had to be cut down. The tree had become diseased. This year some of the walnuts that fell from that tree began to sprout and grow new walnut trees. They are all over our backyard spreading...
Don’t Be Surprised
I just heard the word “surprise” in my spirit. Each time I hear this word a surprise takes place either with a dramatic change in a significant leadership position or a turn of events that completely flips conventional wisdom on its ear. As you move through the...
Those Who Ponder
Every dream began when someone stopped long enough to ponder a new reality. God is inviting each of us to a place where we can ponder with Him so He can reveal what has not yet been imagined. From within that place of availability to God, dreams will be released that...
Erased Lives
Something unusual just happened. I was putting the final touches on a word I wanted to post on my blog and social media accounts when my cursor began to backspace uncontrollably deleting everything I had written. It was like the Pac-Man icon on steroids. I frantically...
Our Premature and Uninformed Assumptions
If you pause and take a moment to ask people why they are doing something, especially when what they are doing seems strange and out of the ordinary, it might actually make sense once you become informed. Ask before you make any judgment, especially when it comes to...

Your Spiritual Elevator Ride
In the last couple of years, I have been spending more and more time riding elevators. Usually, this happens in a hotel where I stay when I teach and minister. Yesterday, I saw the image of an elevator in a video. In the video, a person extended their finger and...
The Draining Away
Delusion and deception are beginning to drain away to reveal the truth of God. A deluding spirit has been sowing deception in the hearts of people for a very long time. This deception is so great that those held under its spell have been blinded to an emerging...
Side-Tracked Bravery
Don’t become so focused on your current understanding of reality that you begin to believe the way forward will only be discovered by a continuation of the status quo. Some of the greatest advancements in human history have taken place because someone was willing to...
The Choice of Fullness
I have noticed the life, vocabulary, and behavior of people who know they are blessed is defined by words like, thankful, grateful, peaceful, hopeful and joyful. The common thread in these words is the suffix attached to each noun, “ful.” It means to be full of...
Spiritual Sight
There is a powerful proverbial statement that historians believe was first spoken by Erasmus, “In the land of the blind, a one-eyed man is king.” The phrase reveals the impact that revelation can have no matter how small that revelation might...
The First Sign of Your Breakthrough
Remnants of your breakthrough will begin to appear before the actual breakthrough is experienced. Something is taking place out of sight and above your circumstance. God is trying to get your attention. He is sending the remnants of your breakthrough as the first...
A Beautiful Mercy
God’s mercy is non-partisan. It is not prejudiced, nor does it belong to a single faith-affiliation or live only in one stream of revival or reformation thinking. Mercy knows no boundary, restriction or human limitation because it reflects the height, depth, and...
