Prophet: Filling Every Clay Pot With God’s Glory
Some years ago, I was teaching from Habakkuk 2:14 that the glory of the Lord will cover the earth as the waters cover the seas. The topic, to a certain degree, was theoretical. Then the Holy Spirit asked me, “How will that happen?” Not knowing the answer, I said back to Him, “Oh, how will […]
Prophetic Dream: God’s Lightning Bolts of Glory
I awoke suddenly out of a vibrant prophetic dream that was filled with lightning. (Although this happened years ago, I remember it as if it were yesterday.) One lightning bolt after another exploded before my eyes—continual, splintering, powerful lightning bolts from heaven to earth. No people. No words. Just incessant light, action, sound. When I […]
Warning Dream: Do Not Be Ignorant of the Devil’s Scheme
Recently, I was given a stark dream in which I was given instruction in the wisdom ways of God for the purposes of prayer and to forewarn us so we do not get caught up in the enemy’s schemes. Paul, the apostle, stated that we are not to be ignorant of the devil’s schemes. In […]
Courageous and Prophetic Women of Faith, Part 2 (New Testament & Beyond)
n the New Testament, we find many women who display aspects of every gift of the Spirit, whether or not they were aware of it. For example, take the Samaritan woman at the well, whose name is lost to history (see John 4:7–29). Jesus singled her out and she is considered by many to be […]
How the Holy Spirit Moves: Bringing Order Out of Chaos
In order to understand how the Holy Spirit moves, you must first learn what He loves and how he operates. The Holy Spirit loves messes. Bringing order into chaos is His nature. It doesn’t matter if the chaos is in your nation, your personal life, politics or your family. God brings order to chaos. How […]
Courageous and Prophetic Women of Faith, Part 1 (Old Testament)
Women have been faithful and courageous champions over the centuries for the whole history of the people of God. We do not know about as many of them as we could, because the (largely male) history writers have ignored or minimized their accomplishments. Naturally, another reason we don’t know about all the great women of […]
Hope Restores in Every Situation
Every one of us goes through dark valleys and troubled times. But in Christ Jesus we have hope. And hope restores in every situation—no matter how dark it may seem. To say that the last year has been challenging would be an understatement for most of the world. On a national level, almost everyone has […]
The Significance of Changing Garments
One of the most powerful themes I have observed in Scripture is “changing garments.” This principle is spiritual but manifests itself clearly in the natural. As you move from glory to glory and exchange the “old” for the “new,” there is a period of testing and vulnerability once the old is cast off and then […]
Get Ready for Your Personal God Encounter
By the grace of God, my life has been filled with “God encounters”—God taking me to mountain tops, leading me through the valleys and walking with me in the small moments, every step of every day. Really? Yes, and you can live a life filled with personal God encounters too. Just think about the experience […]
