It is very clear from what God says in Hosea 4:6 that He does NOT want us destroyed.  If it were God’s will for us to be destroyed, what destroys more than cancer?  What destroys more than sickness and disease?  What destroys more than poverty? Nothing. Some people have the mistaken idea that sickness and… Read More »

If you follow Ephesians 5:18-21, you will begin to move into operating in the gifts of the Spirit; you will move into intercession, and you can shake off all the burdens that have attached themselves to you.  You will also have freedom in praise and worship–and fewer problems with submitting to other people.  There are… Read More »

We need to take the Word of God and apply it in everyday life.  If you aren’t doing that, then you need to begin.  Theology without a practical application is not worth anything.  God intends for us to use all of His Word.  He gave us the Holy Spirit, the Comforter, for a purpose, to… Read More »

I believe that there is a “divine order,” in operation of the giftings of the Holy Spirit.  It take more faith to move in the gift of prophecy than it does to speak in your heavenly prayer language.  As we are faithful in the “lower-level” (just for I.D., not LOWER…because all of God is GREAT) … Read More »

The power or the “tools” with which to do these things comes from the Holy Spirit.  And that’s where a whole lot of Christians are in trouble.  They are trying to do these things without the Holy Spirit.  They are trying to dig ditches without shovels.  But, as you stay continually filled with the Spirit,… Read More »

Jesus is God’s give to the world, and the Holy Spirit is God’s gift to the Church.  The ministries of the gifts of the Spirit are the ways in which He manifests in and to the Body.  God is not going to ask us to do a task and not give us the equipment to… Read More »

God wants you to know that you know that you know.  He is not a hit-or-miss, could-be, might-be, maybe-so, hope-so God.  He is an ABSOLUTE!  He is known as, “THE GREAT I AM!”  He doesn’t offer us uncertainties.  He offers us surety, absoluteness, guarantees.  When you start seeing Him in that light, you will be… Read More »

If I didn’t hear the Lord clearly, I want to hear the instruction again. God is not going to strike you down for asking him something like, “Would you say that again Lord.”  God understands.  His nature is to reassure us.  So if you didn’t get something straight that you believe He said to you,… Read More »

Most of us would like to do what Peter did in the waling-on-water incident.  He wanted to prove it was the voice of the Master.  Isn’t that what most of us want to do at times?  We want do prove that it is the voice of God speaking to us.  Some people seem to think… Read More »

You can pray out the answers about your business, any marriage difficulties, problems with your children, or any other problems.  You can turn around and get directions from headquarters: wisdom, answers that are not just mental and half-heard, but clear directions.  If you’ll enter into praise and worship and begin with that, you will be… Read More »
