Prepared for the Times, Part 6

As we have discussed, after the Fall, the first one about whom it was said that walked with God was Enoch. We are told in Jude 14 that Enoch prophesied, and a good case can be made that everyone who truly walks with God prophesies. This does not necessarily mean predicting the future, but simply speaking for God. However, many do not even recognize when they are being used in this way—not that this is essential, but we might be used more if we could recognize it.

Discerning the Times, Part 19

We have been addressing how there seems to be a major thrust toward unity in the church now. This will ultimately result in what I want to address next—a kingdom economy. That may sound big and complicated, but it isn’t. In fact, the kingdom economy is much simpler and easier to build on than the world’s economy, and it is going to begin to become a reality this year. What does this mean?

Discerning the Times, Part 2

What exciting times we live in! The kingdom of God is closer today than it was yesterday. The kingdom of God is coming regardless of who is elected, in any election. The kingdom of God is going to come and the Lord’s will is going to be done, right here on earth as it is in heaven, period.  

Fear of Man Compromises the Prophetic Message - The Prophetic Experiences, Part 11

     We will continue to evaluate the way I’ve handled giving the word about the impending West Coast disasters. Of course, these are from my perspective, and therefore, are subjective. Presently, I am being accused of having many different motives for giving these words, all of which I do not consider to be true, so I don’t want to answer them just to be defensive. However, I think they are excellent examples of how we can expect people to react to words like this.

Day 127 - You Will Prophesy

Another remarkable characteristic about Enoch is that he is the first one recorded in Scripture to have prophesied (see Jude 14). Prophecy is a definite product of walking with God. When we walk with God, so that we are changed into His image, we will begin to see with His eyes, hear with His ears, and understand with His heart. God is beyond time. He sees from the perspective of eternity. To Him the future is just as clear as the present.

Day 79 - Resurrection Life

Have you ever considered that one reason many have a hard time believing in the resurrection is because they look at the weakness of the Lord's own body, the church, with less than 10 percent of its members functioning? Of course the church is given as the most frequent reason why people do not believe the gospel, and this is understandable. However, before the end comes the church is going to be the glorious bride that she is called to be, with a body that functions with a beauty, grace, and power that will cause the world to marvel. Why not now?

Day 31 - The Delusion

And they heard the sound of the LORD God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and the man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God among the trees of the garden.


Then the LORD God called to the man, and said to him, "Where are you?" (Genesis 3:8-9)

A Word for 2015, Part 53

        Each New Year we usually say “Good-bye!” to the previous year with a “Good riddance!” Every year has its challenges, but after a few more years go by, we tend to remember only the good things. One thing we can surely rejoice in is that the Lord chooses to forget all of our confessed sin and only remembers the good we have done. If we are going to be one with Him, we too will have to forget our sins and our failures, and only remember the good things.
