The spiritual warfare success rate is dismal. I wish I could say it is amazing. I cannot. I can say that we have great examples of amazing breakthroughs. I can also say we talk about them because they are exceptions, not the norm. Unless we see ourselves as roving bands of marauders fighting the pirates […]

Fathers Put the “Wow!” on Your Priorities
That moment when a younger person joins the fight we’ve been in for forty years with great passion: Welcome to the fray. While I think it is wonderful to hear your experience, it is bewildering that you see it as unique when a thousand others have been walking this walk for years. That is why […]
Lead Us Not…Deliver Us…Forgive Us
I have been reading and studying the Bible for more than fifty years. I have been a Biblicist all that time, never wavering in my belief in a word by word inspiration, an inerrant Bible, and the availability of the original languages that guarantee that we can know what God intended to communicate. I have […]
Quoting God or Submitting to Prophetic Process
Prophetic one-up-manship comes from a flesh or soulish source and diminishes the purity of the revelation. 1. Your attempt to make the way you received the revelation undeniable reveals your need to satisfy a demanding desire. Watch carefully when the prophet needs to add a “you cannot deny this is God” aspect to the revelation. […]
Inspiration, Inerrancy, Intention, and Implementation
“God gave us His inerrancy through the process. God involved Himself in the process from the actual scripting to the end product of preparation to do anything that is good. Paul includes implementation in the inspiration involvement of God.” Dr. Don Lynch Holy Spirit breathed, or God breathed Holy Spirit through the write and into […]

Do Not Fear Being Empty
The crucible that crushes will eliminate anything of my “I am” that is not “by God’s grace.” I just shared with a special son of the kingdom: “I know that God has pressed you into the crucible so you have come out an overcomer at a new, higher level. Never hesitate to empty out because […]
Apostolic Order at the Territorial Level
At the territorial level of kingdom conquest, the fivefold ministry can either be in order or out of order. The apostolic order can often be as dysfunctional at the territorial level as it can be – and often is the present maturing of the restoration – at the regional. If the dominance of a shepherding […]
Kingdom Center Building Procedures, Part 1
I say, “Nothing has destroyed the kingdom more than allowing everyone to do what each of them thinks Holy Spirit is telling them to.” That is why the King sends representatives with His blueprints to guide and govern the construction of kingdom and kingdom culture, to produce the purpose of the people and place to […]
Solving Authentic Fathering Issues
Let me begin by saying that counterfeits for authentic fathering abound. “You have an unlimited number of teachers, but you do not have many fathers” (1 Corinthians 4:15). Several forms of leadership, relabeled with the buzzword, now claim to be fathering when they are Pharaoh. Several other forms of teaching are claiming to father when […]
