Jan just completed Volume 5 of her 5-book series of Blessings from the Prophet Isaiah. This completed work has been an 8-year journey for Jan. She studied Isaiah's prophecies in depth and then created from those prophecies her five books of blessings. I call this...
Some of you do not have a prominent place in God’s Kingdom by human standards or measurement. You did not stand behind a pulpit or get asked to speak somewhere. You never wrote a book, published a blog, or sat for an interview to tap your wisdom. Instead, you have...
We know the depth of the Lord's sacrifice that He paid for our redemption. His sacrifice cost Him everything. Nothing we offer can equal His sacrifice, but we have been called to live a sacrificial life. Our sacrifice for the sake of expressing God's love and our...
Many believers get sidetracked and begin to live a life that does not honor God or the calling upon their lives. In these detours from a life of faith, the choices they made are never powerful enough to permanently erase the anointing on their lives if they become...
There are times when the Lord will use the environment of confusion to defeat the lies being expressed in our personal lives and even within a nation. When it appears that darkness is deepening its grip and creating confusion, the Lord will make Himself...
A spirit is afoot attempting to thwart the works of God. I am seeing this happen with friends in other nations and here at home in America. The common denominator regarding each of these individuals under assault is their mission to accelerate and accomplish The Great...
Pushing back on the lies we are being offered as established truths and an uncontestable fact is the nature of spiritual warfare. Holding the line on God’s truth will challenge the established deceptive narrative currently being offered in our social dialogue. Taking...
A fast and accurate delivery of truth offered at the precise moment of God’s timing can release devastation upon the plans of the enemy. In the classic movie, “The Patriot", starring Mel Gibson, one of his sons had been taken captive by British forces during the time...
Of late, I have been reading through Matthew’s Gospel. Just before Jesus went silent before those who would crucify Him, He said some strong words. All that Jesus did in those final days would “fulfill the words of the prophets as recorded in the Scriptures” (Matthew...
Recently, I was praying for someone who is experiencing a challenging time in life. As I prayed, I began to declare over them God’s heart for their future. I decreed the victory of the Lord's resurrection and finally, I began to prophesy over them whatever the Spirit...
When the Church realizes what she carries, that realization will change how we see and respond to each life situation. As the Triumphant Entry was taking place, Jesus approached the city of Jerusalem riding atop a donkey. This would fulfill Zechariah’s prophecy about...
Yesterday, the Lord said to me, “Refuse to become a victim of other people’s brokenness.” It was a specific instruction for a specific situation in my life. The Lord was reminding me that adopting a victim mentality is never God’s will. Later in the day, Jan was...
Jesus set the stage to make a very strong comment to His disciples. The Lord was never afraid of making strong statements about the consequences of our unrepented sin. He still makes these comments today amidst the current attempts to give us permission to live with...
On this day, February 10, 1994, my pastor, and one of the greatest mentors in my life, Roy Hicks, Jr, died in an airplane crash not far from where Jan and I now live. The truths Roy represented and his integrity with Scripture still resonate in my heart. Thirty years...
There are times when we speak the truth that what we say will be offensive because it violates long-held religious traditions. If our goal is to use truth to be offensive for offensive’s sake, the truth we speak will not have its intended purpose. It will make us just...
