Walking Through the Tabernacle

Glimpses of Different Forms of Prayer This teaching is a synopsis of lessons directing us towards the goal of contemplative prayer: effective ministry and greater communion with God. We want to be brought into the Brilliant Presence of God and then turn around and give Him away! There are three distinct models of prayer: Contemplative Prayer Reminding God of His Word Prophetic Intercession When we wed the contemplative facet of communal prayer with the ‘reminding God of His Word’ model, they form Prophetic Intercession. This form of prayer is a lost art to most of the evangelical and charismatic church. Quieting our soul before God and coming into a [...]

Hearing the Heartbeat of God

John 1:18 NKJV "No one has seen God at any time. The only begotten Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, He has declared Him.” The heartbeat is a sure sign of life. As long as the heart is beating, life is present. Jesus Christ, for us, is the very heartbeat of the Father. Remember how John, the beloved apostle, reclined on the breast of Jesus during the Last Supper. John had the privilege of hearing the heartbeat of God. Later, John, would write, “No one has seen God at any time; the only begotten God who is in the bosom of [...]

Israel: The Apple of God’s Eye

“For He who touches you [Israel] touches the apple [pupil] of God’s eye.” Zechariah 2:8b The board has been set and pieces are moving. Throughout the ages, it seems as if God has been waiting for His strategic moment. He is positioning His intercessory knights and prophetic bishops together for a sweeping move - one that all the world will observe closely. No eye will miss the mysterious and fascinating day on God’s prophetic calendar when He once again steps into the world of space and time. It is time for the unveiling of the mystery of Israel as the apple of God’s eye, the [...]

The Era of the Open Door

Psalm 24:3,4 “Who may ascend the hill of the Lord? Or who may stand in His holy place? He who has clean hands and a pure heart, who has not lifted up his soul to an idol, nor sworn deceitfully."We are not only crossing the threshold into a New Year, but into a New Era. This is an entire new period of time where we move from the church age to the kingdom age. We are going into a season of the Open Door where discernment will be required.We need to discern which door we go through as we’re presented with many options. How we close [...]

Women Work Wonders

Luke 1:37, 38 "For with God nothing shall be impossible." Then Mary said,  "Behold the maidservant of the Lord! Let it be to me according to your word."  And the angel departed from her.In the superhero culture of today, we love people who seem to be bigger than life. In recent times, we have observed the emergence of female characters such as Wonder Woman, Supergirl, Wakanda Princess, Storm, and so many others!But, before there ever were these fictitious cinematic, captivating characters, we had multiple life giving role models of Biblical wonder working women. These are the authentic heroines of the faith who worked and birthed wonders! [...]

What Happens When 50 Prophets Get Together?

Numbers 11:29 “But Moses said to him, “Are you jealous for my sake? Would that all the Lord's people were prophets, that the Lord would put his Spirit on them!” During the last several months, I’ve had the honor of gathering with prophets and apostolic leaders from around the world! One such gathering was the Apostolic Council of Prophetic Elders (ACPE) chaired by Cindy Jacobs of Generals International. ACPE was founded 24 years ago by C. Peter Wagner. I’ve had the distinct honor of serving in this council since its inception. We started as a group of 25 prophets but now we’re up to [...]

The Power of Thanksgiving

Psalm 100:4-5 “Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise; give thanks to him and praise his name. For the Lord is good and his love endures forever; his faithfulness continues through all generations”These are iconic verses. Yet, we often don’t practice them! It’s so easy to enter God’s presence with praise and miss a key step: thanksgiving. We don’t enter God’s presence with praise; we enter His presence with thanksgiving!But why? Well, when we start our prayers and worship with thanksgiving, it changes our perspective; it takes us into a new realm of the spirit that ushers in genuine praise. [...]

The Rise of the Mordecai’s

Revelations 2:13 “‘I know where you dwell, where Satan's throne is. Yet you hold fast my name, and you did not deny my faith even in the days of Antipas my faithful witness, who was killed among you, where Satan dwells.” We don’t wrestle against flesh and blood but against spirits of wickedness in the heavenly places. Still, at times, there are specific geographical areas where the presence of evil dwells in a compact manner.Revelation 2 references “Satan’s throne” as a physical location on earth. I believe, at times, there are geographical locations where demonic entities concentrate to advance the will of the enemy. One such [...]
