Recently I was praying about a particular personal need. After several weeks of praying…yes weeks, the Lord spoke to me and said ‘what is in your hands? Use that!’ I suddenly knew what God was showing me was I already had the seed I needed for my harvest, it was here all along, in my […]
Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:6-7 I was thinking about this verse this morning as I spent quiet time with […]
It has been quite a while since I had a dream from the Lord. But recently, upon waking, I knew this one was a game changer. In the dream I saw an entire city preparing for an upcoming marathon. The greatest runners in the country had come to participate and I understood that this race […]
It seems every year we hear of more and more flu viruses going around. Many people are afraid of the flu, there is no reason to fear, God has not given us a spirit of fear but of power love and a sound mind. The best thing we can do is to build up our […]
Alone we can do little; together we can do so much. Years ago, as I was enjoying a monthly magazine sent to me a ministry, God spoke to me. He said, ‘are you enjoying that magazine?’ I replied ‘Yes, Lord, this is a great magazine.’ He continued to speak and said, ‘do you think it […]
My daughter, Breanne, loves horses. Back in the summer she wanted to purchase another horse, but a friend of hers told her to wait until winter. He said, ‘if you wait for winter, when no one wants to feed them, you will get the best horses for the least cost.’ She waited. Sure enough, the […]
This past week, social media was filled with people who could not wait for 2017 to be over. I get that, I have had a few years like that myself, but 2017 wasn’t one of them. While it certainly had its challenges, I felt God was very good to me this past year. I experienced […]
In 2017, we began doing monthly Partner Prayer and Teaching calls once a month. These have been anointed times where God shows up through the word being taught and the prayers being prayed as we released our faith and shared together. These are made available to every partner monthly. We decided to make them available […]
‘So, I say to you, ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.’ Luke 11:9 Often in the Body of Christ I hear complaints about unanswered prayers. I am sure you hear the same thing or perhaps you are the one with […]
I was reading a scripture the other day and it was so good that I had to stop and meditate on it for a few days…don’t you love that about the word? It is so good that you must chew on it for a while, savoring the taste of it. I can fully understand why […]
Don’t fret or worry. Instead of worrying, pray. Let petitions and praises shape your worries into prayers, letting God know your concerns. Before you know it, a sense of God’s wholeness, everything coming together for good, will come and settle you down. It’s wonderful what happens when Christ displaces worry at the center of your […]
I want to talk with you today about a familiar scripture or set of scriptures in Matthew 17. It is talking about the man who brought his son to the disciples and they could not heal him or set him free. At this time, the disciples had seen Jesus heal people; they had witnessed Jesus […]
One morning I woke up thinking about a couple. They have been married for several years now, however, when they were first married, it seemed like it would never last. Yet several years later they feel they are with the love of their life – even though it was not that way in the beginning. […]
In the Bible, when David went to take his brothers food, he heard everyone talking about Goliath and how big he was and how no one could defeat him. He heard Goliath shouting at God’s people and talking about how he would defeat them. Everyone around David was talking about the impossibility of defeating Goliath […]
I heard a person make a statement this week in a conversation. The statement, while common, has stuck with me for a couple of days. The statement was ‘I have been complaining about…’ I realize that complaining is a common occurrence and most people complain…a lot. However, I did a little study of this word […]
How many of us have been waiting on prayers to be answered? How many are waiting on breakthrough in our finances or relationships? I imagine that the answer to those questions would be a great deal of us. Here’s another question; how many of us are prepared to receive it, right now? At one time, […]
God recently reminded me about a teaching I did a few years ago and wanted me to remind you; when breakthrough comes, and it is coming…. don’t let your guard down. The Message Bible tells us in Deuteronomy 8:2; ‘Remember every road that God led you on for those forty years in the wilderness, pushing […]
Have you ever fainted? I have one or two times in my life, it is not fun, you have no idea what is going on around you, you can’t do anything about it. Beyond that, it is simply uncomfortable. Normally, before a person faints, there are some signs it is about to happen, maybe some […]
One of the biggest obstacles that many believers face today is facing fear. I think Joyce Meyer got it right when she wrote the book ‘Do It Afraid.’ Often, in life that is exactly what we must do, do it afraid. Weekly we get emails from people wanting us to ask God to remove fear […]
One day I was helping Bryson study for an upcoming test at school. Bryson has always excelled tests; therefore, I had concluded, at least in my own mind, that tests were a breeze for him. The day I was helping him we were casually talking after we studied. I said ‘Bryson, do tests make you […]
