Overcoming the Dominant Spiritual Condition of Your Assignment

God makes kingdom leaders aware of dominant spiritual conditions in their assigned areas in ways that I call “shared spiritual experience.” In an intercessory context, you experience the spiritual condition so that you can fully recognize and understand it by personal experience. In this way, leaders can discern the difference between the influence of principalities […]

Spiritual Warfare is Always Positive

Spiritual warfare may be properly defined as “positively pursuing God’s purpose with His power, principles, and protocols.”That long definition can be summed up with the terms “positive” and “purpose.” The warfare arrives when the purpose of God runs into the positions of the enemy. That is, any warfare that pursues the enemy takes on a […]

The Forerunner Identity: Moving from Revival to Awakening Leadership

God wants everybody but He never starts with everybody. He starts with a remnant and remnant start with leaders. More specifically, He starts with Remnant leaders. Remnant leaders function as forerunners. To identify the next season properly, we must identify the forerunner anointing preparing the Lord a people who will be ready to respond when […]

Giving Birth to Purpose, Part 2: “We Groan With Childbirth Labor”

Paul says, “Even we groan, having the Spirit’s first fruits as adopted sons of God while awaiting the redemption of our bodies.” Our bodies being the natural aspect of our total being that contacts the physical world and will ultimately received fuller redemption when we receive a glorified body.

Pioneers function with revelatory boldness, a complete sense of purpose and assignment, a confidence in the sight lines of their visions. They have courage of this convincing that removes hesitation to action or any heaviness toward details that would hamper moving forward. While discussing the details of how the discovery will be made, pioneers often […]

Living SpiritFirst

The SpiritFirst life begins with being born by the Spirit. Natural man gives birth to natural. Spirit man gives birth to spirit. In each case, the Creator is the Creator of natural and spirit life. The spiritual womb is dormant and unknown until the conception by Holy Spirit of spirit provides spirit life in a […]

Kingdom Culture

Culture is group behavior. Simply put, perhaps an oversimplification for the basis of our discussion, behavior in the individual is culture in the group. Shared values and beliefs shape shared behaviors. What we believe has consequences. What we value orders our lives. In a culture, values and beliefs shared by the group influence and motivate […]

Dominion of God on Earth

Every Scripture that promises us Jesus will be King and take dominion also promises us that His dominion will be carried out through redeemed people. From the beginning of Creation this was His strategy. Something radical to nature will change, however, once we receive glorified bodies: we won’t marry anymore because gender distinctions will disappear. […]
