There was something very different about the Apostle John. Words were said about him that were not said about any other Apostle. In scripture John was referred to as the one whom Jesus loved. The most peculiar thing is that you find the statement, the one whom Jesus loved, in...

I have been serving the Lord for many years now. However, I can still remember the first lesson He ever taught me and not only taught me but required of me. This one scripture became so ingrained in me that I can’t get away from it. So much so, that...

I can’t tell you how many times I have heard people pray this prayer, “Lord, use me, put me in ministry, use me for the Kingdom.” While their motive is absolutely sincere, I believe a better prayer may be, “God make me useable for the Kingdom of God.” Yes, it...

I, like many others, have prayed the prayer of faith and seen people instantly healed. I have fasted and witnessed a tremendous breakthrough. I have laid hands on the sick and seen those who couldn’t walk, walk again. I have confessed the Word of God over a situation and seen...

Did you know your body listens to YOU more than anyone else? On a daily basis your brain is listening to every single word you say. Not only that, but your body is responding to what you say. It is also responding to the things you choose to think about...

My favorite place to sit and read my bible is on my back porch swing. These days I must do that early in the morning to avoid the stifling heat. That’s what I was doing this morning when I noticed something unusual. I have shared with you before how I...

Today, I want to share something with you from Pastor Beth Trussell of Cornerstone Church. It’s a strong but necessary message for all of us. In my time with the Lord this morning this is what the Lord spoke to me. While he was saying this to me, I felt...

This weekend, I sat on my back porch watching a storm roll in. I was also watching how the birds just kept coming to their feeder – they paid no attention to the rolling thunder, the lightening or the high winds. It took me back to a time when Bryson...

I love when we get this type of emails from our readers and partners. Many of our partners, like this one, has been with us for decades and we have watched their lives and been privileged to watch how they grow in God. You are going to love this real...

A few years ago, God began to teach me about honor. It began with a simple lesson. I had received a personal check in the mail. It wasn’t common as most checks that come to the ministry are for the ministry. Every now and then, perhaps a couple times a...

Thursday morning, I was sitting in my office working on my daily writings. I was alone, nothing major was happening, I was simply writing. I glanced over at my prayer wall when the Lord spoke to me. He said, “I am sending rain.” When He spoke those words I could...

I want to share a funny, but powerful story with you today. It’s about a little girl and her chickens. As most of you know, my granddaughter, Brailee is a farm girl through and through. Her dream is to have her own horse that will do everything she wants it...

Recently, I attended a meeting out of town to hear a woman minister on something God had revealed to her. It was an awesome message and quite thought-provoking. She shared how many of us expect worse case scenarios. In other words, when something is late coming home, we often think...

Today, as I was praying about someone’s finances, God reminded me of something Brailee, my granddaughter, said to me when she was only seven years old. God often speaks to me through my grandkids, this was especially true when they were very little. Each grandchild is different, but God has...

It has been many, many years ago since I heard the Lord speak to me about unshakable faith. Still, I remember it as if it were yesterday. I was in my prayer room at our office. I had been praying and worshipping God when His words stopped me in my...
