Introduction – First Prophetic Word The very first prophetic word I ever heard was one that came out of my own mouth.

THE MOST AMAZING HISTORY LESSON Thoughts from Colossians 1:16 (NASB)Paul, the beloved apostle, gave us great insight in Colossians 1:16, “For by Him all things were created, both in the heavens and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities -- all things have been created through Him and for Him.” Jesus created all things, all spheres, and all powers.

A videotape of his presentation was made and it is still available today. Here are some excerpts from it: Dr. A. T.

The Gentle, the Rude and the Great Awakenings

In the book, The Call of the Elijah Revolution, which I co-authored with Lou Engle, I speak of three stages and types of the overall awakening. We can see these three awakenings—the gentle, the rude and the great—in world events and Church history as well as in the Bible. Gentle Awakening If you have been a Christian for any length of time, you will know that the past twenty years or so have been marked with a growing awareness of God’s desire for intimacy with His people.

However, there seems to be an increase and [...]
