ATTENTION: Be on the Alert!
On Sunday morning, September 1st, while asleep in my home in Franklin, Tennessee, I was given a short dream that carried weight in the spirit. A Warrior Angel came and stood at the end of my bed and spoke to me. This messenger angel was one I had seen 25 years before, but not since. The angel declared, “ATTENTION!” I had suddenly woken up to see the Warrior Angel looking straight at me and he spoke, “Be on the alert!” Then suddenly he took off. The bedroom was charged with an intense presence of the “fear of the Lord” and I was [...]

LIVING IN THE UNTIL CLAUSE Sometimes we all wonder, “Why does there seem to be a delay to answered prayers?” or “When is that prophetic promise ever going to come to pass?” If you find yourself pondering these types of questions, you are not alone. We all live in the “until” clause to one degree or another. There is “promise revealed” and then there is “promise fulfilled”. Between these two positions, there is the gap we live in called the “until”. But, we do not have to stay there. We can learn the ways of the Holy Spirit in this thing called, [...]
How to Respond to the Times
A Review of a Recent Visitation In recent weeks, I had a visitation that I reported on in last week’s Prayer Storm communication. Click here to review it. I reported how I heard a word from the Lord, “A line has been drawn in the sand.” The realm of the fear of the Lord came with the word. This was followed by an intense dream that I am calling “When the Plumb Line is Dropped.” Understanding was granted concerning the displeasure of the Holy Spirit with recent decisions made by the Supreme Court of the United States. But the encounter did not end [...]

In the written and oral account, I stated that I was awakened out of a dream state by hearing the words, “A line had been drawn in the sand.” I knew not to publicly interpret that part of the encounter at that time but felt the liberty to announce the word.

Properly Interpreting Revelation
Some years ago I was traveling through the night by train from the Frankfurt, Germany region to Rossenheim in southern Bavaria. I was in one of the sleeping cars but, unable to sleep, I spent much of my time praying in the Spirit. The Holy Spirit kept speaking to me over and over, “Where are My Daniels? Where are My Esthers? Where are My Josephs, and where are My Deborahs?” After many years of pondering on this word, I believe that the Holy Spirit is on a quest to find believers He can work with – believers who will dream God’s dreams at [...]
