What a Roller Coaster Ride! A Personal Update from James Goll
What a roller coaster ride! While on a ministry trip to Singapore in March 2014, for no known reason, I was hit with horrible pain in my lower back and intense pain in my legs. This resulted in a microscopic disc surgery between L5 and S1 the following June due to a herniated or ruptured […]
In Turbulent Times, One Simple Choice Changes Everything!
In today’s global society we continue to see an increase of violence, rampant shootings, riots, tumultuous weather patterns, racial strife, instability in North Korea, chaos in Syria and the Middle East, Russia’s re-emergence, and wars and rumors of wars (Matthew 24:3-14).

Discernment: When Your Smallness Becomes Extraordinary
Have you ever felt like you were too small to be used by God? If so, you are in good company. God is in the business of taking infinitely small things, mixing them with his amazing nature by the power of His Spirit, and then making something extraordinary. No matter where you’ve come from or […]

Let the Lion Roar! A Prophetic Intercessory Encounter
In a prophetic intercessory time with my God Encounters Ministries staff, I found myself declaring by the Holy Spirit, “It is time for the Lion to roar!” I have enough experience to know to flow with the “river of God” believing that I, or others, would be able to interpret the encounter later. A rumbling […]
Have You Encountered a Father’s Love?
For many people today, the word father does not stir up happy thoughts of love and security, but painful memories of rejection, abuse, anger, fear, or loss.
