Be Still and Soak in His Presence

That’s right, be still and soak in His Presence. Imagine for a moment that you could spend a day with Jesus, just the two of you. If that’s too much time to imagine spending with Him, imagine spending only an hour with Him. Imagine that it’s right now, right this minute—just you and the lover of your soul. Just be. Go ahead, soak in His presence. If it helps to put on a quiet worship CD, feel free to do that. You can find Him in so many ways. One of my favorite ways is hiking alone in the woods. When I [...]

Your Prayer Counts: A Noontime Prayer Revival Is Coming

I want to bring you a word of exhortation — this is simple, but simple things can be profound — your prayer counts and your sacrifice matters. Habakkuk 3:2 says, “Lord, I have heard of your fame; I stand in awe of your deeds, Lord. Repeat them in our day, in our time make them known; in wrath remember mercy.” We all need mercy, don’t we. In prayer revivals, this scripture is one of the most prayed in all the Bible. I've heard of your fame. I stand in awe of your deeds. Lord, I remind you, I repeat them to you. [...]

Your Natural and Spiritual Senses

God is an emotive God and every dimension of the fruit of the spirit is distinctly filled with emotions. So, it is important to approach emotive discernment with balance, understanding, and revelation concerning the realm of natural and spiritual senses. Hebrews 5:13-14 says, “For everyone who partakes only of milk is not accustomed to the word of righteousness, for he is an infant. But solid food is for the mature, who because of practice have their senses trained to discern good and evil.” One of the things that I always highlight about this verse, is that it doesn’t say good versus evil, but that the mature have the capacity [...]

Holiness and the Power of Conviction

The conviction and conversion experience is the work of the Holy Spirit, sometimes experienced as dramatic and sometimes gentler in nature. In every case, an encounter with the Holy Spirit arouses an emotional response. And such encounters are not reserved for an elite few, such as the Old Testament patriarchs; they are for everyone. Jesus guaranteed that all generations would have access to God through the gift of His Holy Spirit. Remember what He told His disciples before His crucifixion: “I tell you the truth. It is to your advantage that I go away; for if I do not go away, the [...]

Closing and Opening Doors

Closing Old Doors Many people in the body of Christ are in a season of closing doors — because you must close one door before you can open the next door. Closing the door may relate to a relationship, it might be a business situation, it might be a partnership dealing, or it might be related to a church alignment. No matter the arena of life, closing a door is important so you can pass through a new door into the fulfillment of a future promise. Isaiah 22:22 says, “The key of House of David I will lay on his shoulder; So [...]

Jerusalem – A City of Destiny!

Why is Jerusalem special? Jerusalem is a city of destiny and in ancient times, maps displayed Jerusalem as the center of the earth. Jerusalem is mentioned 881 times in scriptures, and is the only city in the entire Bible that we are commanded to pray for by name. While Jerusalem is mentioned across the entire Bible, one of the primary places is Psalm 122:6-9 where it declares, “pray for the peace of Jerusalem. May they prosper who love you, may peace be within your walls and prosperity within your palaces. For the sake of my brothers and my friends, I will now [...]

Giant Slayers Arise!

The Holy Spirit is asking a question right now. “Where are the giant slayers for this generation?” This question is rumbling around on the inside of me—about myself and about you. In Numbers 14:24, the NASB version states, “But as for My servant Caleb, because he has had a different spirit and has followed Me fully, I will bring him into the land which he entered, and his descendants shall take possession of it.” We desperately need the word of the Lord in this hour. There is such an atmosphere of fear and intimidation in our culture, and so many negative reports. Scripture mentions in the [...]
