Daniel functioned in wisdom. Paul speaks wisdom, a manner of communication: as Jesus says, “I speak to them in parables,” so Paul says, “I speak to the mature in wisdom.” The wisdom is, of course, from above, heavenly in origin, revelatory in distribution, and received by those with spiritual and functional maturity. Paul preaches the […]

Maturing the Prophetic Ministry
Defining terms, the “maturing” of ministry would involve moving it closer to its highest expression, effectiveness, and efficiency of design and intended purpose. Maturing moves us to a higher level of success when we define “success” by what the prophetic was design and bestowed upon the kingdom to provide in terms of leadership, revelation, and […]
Defining Ecclesia as “The Accumulation of Believers”
Previous spiritual generations have walked us through conflicts and clashes about the power of the Spirit, the authority of the Scriptures, the fundamentals of doctrine, the Providence of God. We are presently walking through clarifications about the original design and definition of “church.” Rifts dating back hundreds of years are being examined, and the very […]
Experiencing the Glory of the Kingdom
Jesus asks some deeply-probing questions of His disciples with direct reference to “the glory of His kingdom.” These questions come in the context of the Transfiguration and relate to how the kingdom manifests through representatives of the kingdom of God. While these verses are seldom ever related to the Transfiguration, taking them in the context […]
Prophetic Process: Communication
Immediately we receive revelation of a prophetic nature, we are involved in a process. Other revelatory and spiritual experience do not necessarily require communication, or do not require a prophetic communication process. While other spiritual capacities, gifts of the Spirit, produce revelation, spiritual things revealed by His Spirit to and through our spirit, prophecy […]
Crossing Boundaries of Prophetic Protocol
Immature Prophetic Function The difference between evil people doing false prophecy and good people breaking prophetic protocols is significant. Good people with good intentions may cross proper prophetic protocol boundaries for many reasons. They may end up in areas of dysfunction that call for correction and discipline even when they are basically good […]
Revival and Awakening: Passion for Purpose
God has eternal purposes, and He is passionate for His purposes. This is the way to understand His love, fire, Glory, power, and Word. Without this backdrop of intention, any one aspect of God and His ways may become a cul-de-sac. When revival arrives, some aspect of His passion for purpose will manifest, and that […]
Groaning in the Grip of God
I often see people prophetically as being “in the grip of God.” In this prophetic imagery, I sense that God has not only laid His hand on their lives, He has taken them into His grip. This level of Divine claim resembles the truest sense of “call” [kaleo] which means something deeper and greater than […]
Groaning in God’s Grip
I often see people prophetically as being “in the grip of God.” In this prophetic imagery, I sense that God has not only laid His hand on their lives, He has taken them into His grip. This level of Divine claim resembles the truest sense of “call” [kaleo] which means something deeper and greater than […]
Kundalini and Holy Spirit
Holy Spirit and the kundalini spirit are not the same, similar, or confusingly alike. In spite of some smear efforts by disgruntled people and leaders who are simply offended and filled with revenge and hatred, the comparisons made between them do not stand up to valid experience or to Scripture. The concept that some spirit […]
