A pastor friend of mine, Ryan Rhoden, was asked to mediate between some believers in his church who were experiencing disagreement on a particular issue. . He said, "I will bring my bad theology, and you bring yours, and let’s sit down and talk.” The pastor was...
As the Lord continues to reset His Church amid all the exposures and the back-and-forth of denials, He is doing something new in the Church, not just with those who have abandoned what true prophecy is supposed to be, but with all members of the Church, no matter...
We are coming into a time when increasing levels of peace will occur in our nation contrary to what some are saying. To arrive at that peaceful place, we will go through trying times to get there as lies and deception are exposed that would hinder that peace. An...
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...
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...
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...

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...
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...
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,...
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...
