A Vision of David During our monthly David’s Army meeting I experienced a lingering vision that continued for more than two hours. I saw David standing to the side of the valley listening to Goliath cursing the Israeli army. He has already delivered the bread and cheese to his snarky brothers. He seems completely unfazed […]

The New Era Reformation and the Roaring Twenties
All kingdom leaders function prophetically. This creates a general confusion about prophets because all elders function with revelatory capacity or charismata. Next thing you know, everyone thinks they are a prophet or everything they do and say is “prophetic.” We now have teaching that is “prophetic” when it just teaching taught by someone with prophetic […]
Calling, Ordination, and Commissioning
In no case are we building a doctrine upon the distinction between calling, choosing, ordination, appointment, and commissioning. We seek a working definition by which to distinguish the moment of God’s assignment and His meaning of revelatory instruction for leaders. We see some very clear distinctions that must be made, but we do not have […]
The Vision of the Chessboard: A Strategic Apostolic Message for the Kingdom
In the vision, I am looking at a chessboard. The board is the basis for a revelatory understanding of the kingdom game plan. The board game is chess. The revelation does not necessarily answer to the rules of that game but the revelation picture God uses the board and pieces to reveal. Get into Position […]
Leading When You are Young
Relative terms like “young” require definition because they are comparative. If we say, “Youngest,” we know what that means. In some way of identifying a person, the others in that identification are older. If we say, “Younger,” we are comparing a person identified in some way with one other person. When we say, “Young,” we […]
Set Man is a Set Up
Popular discussions of covering, leadership, and ministry models say that God always sets a man in place. Everything in that move of God eventually rises to that set man’s leadership. Is this a Bible model? Does it prove itself successful in real life and history? Or, does the Bible send a representative with a blueprint […]
In a vision, I was Simeon. He is recorded in Scripture as a man with a promise. He would see Messiah. He lived his life waiting for the fullness of God’s promise. “I will see the Messiah, the hope of my nation!” For years he stood in the Temple looking at parents bringing male babies […]
A Vision Experience at Giants Will Fall
The Galvanizing Passion of Personal Promise In a vision, I was Simeon. He is recorded in Scripture as a man with a promise. He would see Messiah. He lived his life waiting for the fullness of God’s promise. “I will see the Messiah, the hope of my nation!” For years he stood in the Temple […]
God’s Hornets and Election Patterns
God says, “I will send My hornets against your enemies. I will cause confusion between two coalitions of voters. I will motivate two classes of voters.” “I’ll just make them make them willing to go: If a nest of live hornets was brought to this room, And the creatures allowed to go free, You would […]
Women Leaders in Kingdom Culture and Ecclesia
If we begin with Proverbs 31, continue through the Gospels and the heart of Jesus, immerse ourselves in the Acts of Holy Spirit and read from that context what Paul clarifies in discussions of kingdom culture, we arrive at this conclusion: Jesus wants women in ministry leadership. Women will be treated differently from men in […]
