Two comparable New Testament Greek words, apostello and pempein, both meaning, “to send,” reveal three fundamentals concepts: “being sent to originate and being sent to finish what was started.” Especially for John, the idea of being sent links Jesus to the Father as His Representative. The words are common in natural life, of course, but […]

I would like to think we could just talk about the definition of terms and the meaning of words, and mostly, to be Biblical in our approach instead of smashing about with unresolved slogans. Old Testament and New Testament comparisons of “judgment” seldom address the real difference between before and after the Cross. The reality […]

Glamour, from as early as 1720 [Scottish], “magic, enchantment” a form of sorcery that projects spiritual influence upon the mind and perceptions, “to cast the glamor.” In English we find grammar in medieval applications to “any sort of scholarship, especially occult learning.” This from c. 1500 in English but common in Medieval Latin to describe […]

Until you know your assignment, you have limitation in understanding alignment. If you base alignment on any other foundation, it is, at best, temporary, or utilitarian – that is, you use or even abuse alignment instead of submitting to alignment. While we maintain more than one alignment, given the multifaceted complexity of an international ministry […]

Elisha reaches down and picks up an available mantle. He is in the right place at the right time. By enduring. By focused commitment to preparation. By following Elijah, he is there to be discipled by Elijah, prepared for the moment he will function. Many mistake discipling with following. Simply put, you must follow in […]

2016 Brings 2015 Carryovers to Fulfillment First, 2016 is a carry over of what God was doing in 2015 and the two years cannot partitioned from one another. Last year, I saw license plates giving permission for ministries to return to their originating missions. All the plates had dates ending with “6” and God said […]

Another poorly communicated prophetic dream by a young prophet who continues to insist upon seeing himself as a voice with greater volume than he should be applying to his words. The latest edition of “dream time quotations from Jesus” is about Marco Rubio, and the dream, as other dream presented by this young prophetic man, […]

While there’s nothing wrong with simplistic references to Greek root words in a discussion, we often make complex statements from simplistic dictionary references of root words that really do a disservice to proper interpretation. For example, while there’s nothing wrong with continuing to discuss “apostle” from the root word sense of “sending,” building complex discussions […]

Problem solving is a leadership dynamic. The wisdom to govern was the request of Solomon, for example, because he needed to make decisions and solve problems if he was to be king. Obviously, we are not kings, but we do represent the King as kingdom leaders. As a kingdom leader, you deal with false accusations […]
