\ The nations of the world are groaning under the leadership of compromised leaders. God has a plan to bring transformation to those nations through a process of spiritual reformation. I listened to an interview with the president of El Salvador. I realized I was...
Last year, we had a prolonged power outage in our area. It went on for almost two days. As you can imagine, our refrigerators and freezers would begin to warm threatening our food supply. By the time the outage occurred, Jan and I had already purchased a small Honda...
This is a word of encouragement for Pentecostal, Charismatic, and Spirit-filled churches. The Lord is inviting us to re-engage with something we have left behind. That re-engagement is part of God’s preparation to make us ready for a future we do not yet understand....
The dream I had last night was an announcement followed by a word of encouragement. In the dream, I was standing in front of our bathroom mirror getting reading to go somewhere. I turned my head to the side and saw inside my ear the tip of a pencil sticking out. The...
I was on a phone call with my friend, Bobby Haaby, when he said something so profound that it startled me and caught my attention. Bobby said in reference to his ministry and the larger ministry of the global Church, "We are not establishing a new yesterday."...
This has been a week of tremendous movement in the realm of the Spirit. A significant shift has taken place in the heavens that will soon be released on Earth. God is about to amaze us with the rapidity and depth of the coming change. When I heard that word...
From time-to-time, I have to block people from my social media accounts. It happened yesterday when a young woman named “Ginger” wanted to connect via Twitter. My first indication that something was amiss was when I noticed she did not dress appropriately for the...

Gates of restriction are opening before you. What has been a hindering presence will no longer be able to restrict your access to what God has promised. Those who stood in opposition to you, and worked as gatekeepers restricting your entry into the place of your...
There are days when my soul is soothed by an hour or two of long instrumental electric guitar solos played by a master guitarist. (Eric Clapton, Carlos Santana, Steve Vai, Mark Knopfler, Joe Satriani, Gary Moore, Stevie Ray Vaughn and my friend, Caleb Quaye, to...
The phrase, “thoughts and prayers” is getting some negative press of late. I get the intent of that challenge if, when offering our thoughts and prayers, we don't think or pray. Thoughts and prayers can be seen by some as a convenient kiss-off to actually offering...
Many years ago, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. said he heard the voice of Jesus tell him to stand up for the cause of civil rights. This week a television personality ascribed mental illness to anyone who thinks Jesus talks to His followers. Everyone has an opinion....
God is releasing a high-definition version of prophetic insight. Just like high-definition photography and television provide cleaner lines of the image being portrayed so it will be with you. Vaguely defined and blurry prophetic imagery will give way to profound...
Recently, I was on a conference call with a group of prophets from across the United States. Some of our friends were under attack. We gathered to pray and prophesy over their ministry. It was a powerful time. As we prayed, I heard the words, “Ambush averted!” What...
I have given up 10,000 times and tried again 10,001. Knowing with God I always had another chance for a restart helped me get up and take the next step even when it felt like my fear was larger than my faith. In times of self-doubt, I forgot that faith as small as a...
