We are in the opening acts of an Awakening. For me, this is the seventh Awakening for the United States of America, “Great Awakenings” can be defined in many ways…at any rate, the curtain is up on the next one. God’s Word gives us many examples of Divine strategies for moves of God with national […]

God is Spirit and they that worship Him must worship Him in spirit and truth. These people who worship in spirit and truth do not become God in order to achieve this level or type of worship. They do not require a superior humanity or advanced state of consciousness. They do not require a higher […]

Kingdom is God’s strategy of leadership in heaven and earth. Leadership is the kingdom strategy to influence and impact history by bringing heaven’s kingdom into the earth. Discipling is Jesus’ strategy to prepare and position leaders. Fathering is the discipling strategy that invests the heaven’s spirit of leadership into kingdom leaders. Kingdom. Leaders. Discipling.

Kingdom leaders respond to the covenant agreement, and the covenant agreement provides a context in which the […]

Consider the phrasing of Paul: “The spirit of the prophet is subject to the prophet.” Couple that with Peter’s statement: “Whoever speaks, let him speak as one who speaks the oracles of God.” Further consider, then, that prophets are responsible for what they speak, and what they speak should represent God. In the first uses […]

We cannot separate the personality of the prophetic from the prophetic function. The preparation process is personal because the prophetic assignment is personal. We cannot separate the prophetic from assignment if we are to understand his function anymore than we can separate the prophet from his assignment if we are to understand his preparation. Consider […]

The kingdom is filled with both inequality and equality. In some ways, all citizens share equally. In others distinctions and destinies are unequal, by human standards of measurement. The kingdom functions in abundance, so having equal shares so no one has “too much” or “has some of mine” is foreign to kingdom culture. Peter says, for […]
