Abraham has a discussion with God in Genesis 18 about God decision on Sodom and Gomorrah. Abraham has this discussion because God invites him into the decision-making process through which God is going to determine what to do with the sound of sin rising to heaven from these cities. In other words, God chose to […]

The fundamental motivation of the believer’s life must be “the will of God,” or the what-God-wants experienced through revelation from God. Some discussion has been given for many generations to the question of whether any motivation outside this fundamental motivation is spiritually healthy, proper, or acceptable, but no one with a serious understanding of the Scriptures would […]

Jesus describes the kingdom with a picture story of the sower planting his field. He mentions four types of soil that will receive the sown seed. The seed sown is the Word of God, always full of life and the potential of spiritual power, but the soil type determines how or whether or not that […]

Revival and Riot I have been saying for five years that we are going to see revival and riot in America. Sometimes one will occur because of the other, or one will happen at the same time as the other. The contrast between light and darkness is more pronounced; the divisions are stronger in our […]

We are entering a rebuilding David’s Tent season of worship/intercession. This intercession and worship occurs in a way that we cannot tell the difference between the two. This is the revelation of intercession – by experiencing the revelation more than seeing or hearing it – that moves us beyond our limitations so Holy Spirit can […]

We could, perhaps, begin with David’s enemies – the human kind – by mentioning his father. When Samuel, the prophet, shows up to anoint a king among Jesse’s sons, David is conspicuously absent from the lineup. Now, this omission might be explained as simply as David’s location was too distant for a timely response to […]

God authorizes through assignments and alignments. Once apostles receive assignment, God will bring others into alignment with their assignment. Authority flows toward assignment: you have the authority of your assignment, and aligning with apostolic assignments positions you to function in that authority. All authority comes from the King and flows toward His assignments. As Head […]

Step 1 – Spiritual Refuge Church has become a dangerous place. The stories are pretty extensive: first for leaders because they have been drowned by false expectations created by warped “church growth” strategies. The disappearance of the “middle class” has driven leaders out of the ministry: leaders are leaving ministry at a 1,800-per-month clip for […]

Step 2 – Spiritual Restoration Isaiah does not bring the division between verse 21 and Chapter 27:1. They read together. Verse 2 turns to another subject in response to “in that day,” but verse 1 is the conclusion of the discussion of Chapter 26. During a season of visitation, God brings the Leviathan to account […]

Step 3 – Spiritual Retribution God says He will visit the Leviathan with His sword. In other words, He will bring this Leviathan system to account with the very expectations He has for the people, place, and generation being held captive by this systematic spiritual delusion. This serpent inserted itself into God’s designs and twisted […]
