Grand Delusions Dishonor Father’s Intentions I have observed authentic prophets and apostles. When they speak to people they know only by the spirit, they make some glad and many mad. The level of gladness and madness is higher the more authentic they are. I walked toward a wonderful woman with great gifting but bitterness of […]

Do You Have a Remnant Mindset? God wants everybody, but He never begins with everybody. Remnant people have that pioneering edge to their priorities, that they are a bit out of touch, dissatisfied with the status quo, indignant about lukewarmness making them puke and the entire demand for “comfortable above conquering.” God sets Remnants up […]

“Do not attempt to get out of the test until you pass it, receiving the ultimate maturity, without deficits.” James 1:4 Celebrate the Test! Moderns tend to say: “God would never allow me to go through a test. Anything that taxes me is from satan or my enemies. If I feel uncomfortable, I quit the […]

Testing Character for Enduring Submission A test measures our level of quit. The test of character is what it takes to stop you. To repeat: “A test is an examination of the inner man that measures the strength of a man’s endurance for submission. Submission is endurance, and endurance is submission.” The test of character […]

[…]

Fathering occurs in the mundane of life as much as the formalize, standing behind the podium corporate father preaching and teaching mode. One: Deal with trends in the corporate publicly even though individuals feel targeted by fundamental principles. You will not be able to separate solid Truth from the immediate application if you teach people […]

Learn by Living and Doing I will mention the word “applied” initially without referring directly to the qualifier during our discussion. Know this, however: that this word is a key that unlocks everything I will say about apostolic academia. Applied means we put apostolic academia to practical use instead of being theoretical in our vision-casting […]

Barn Door Closed After Horse Ran All the Way to China With the sudden compulsion to fix what was obviously broken for many years now falling upon voices silent before but suddenly thunderous with opinion comes the continuing error of prophetic tests. Grumbling about things under our breath, we murmured more than did what leaders […]

Spiritual fathers lead Esau quitters to the door and say, “You have no portion here.” Thus, Esau is the Biblical model of narcissism. Self-aware of Narcissistic? A narcissist is self-aware to a fault. However, contrary to contemporary humanism, a person can be self-aware without being a narcissist. At the same time, a narcissist produces a […]
