We have lived through back-to-back-to-back decades of sweeping changes that have carried us into a decade of implementation. In 2012 the changes will be comparably subtle, but little changes will have massive impact on the implementation of sweeping revolution. While considering kingdom trends for this calendar year, I received a revelatory reminder that adding or subtracting […]

Dunamis Power
(See also Jesus on Raising the Dead) Jesus was a miracle worker. Consistently. With intent to manifest God’s kingdom power, He confronted the limiting factors of demons, disease, deficiency, and death. He ministered in the power of Holy Spirit. He ministered in this way because this is how things work in His kingdom; He ministered […]
Word for 2012, Part 2, Tithe, Offering, and Kingdom
In 2012 God will claim what is His. The fundamentals of giving will be an issue with God, and He will make them an issue with us! Ananias and Sapphira did not drop dead because they kept back some of the proceeds of their land sale; they dropped dead for lying, for wishing to appear […]
How Free Do You Want to Be?
During the ministry of Jesus, many believed on Him because of His Word and works. A period of popularity continued in which people were embracing Jesus’ ministry and leadership. Jesus says, “If you continue in My Word, you are really My disciples and you shall know the Truth and the Truth shall set you free.” […]
Tipping Points, Word for 2012, Part 3
The mechanism was designed to fill the pivoted glass bird with dripping water until a certain amount of water reached a certain weight that would tip the bird and empty the contents, the empty bird would pivot back into place and the dripping would begin again. The bird would remain in place until that one […]
Preaching – a Unique Mode of Communication
I’ve noticed a trend in Christian television away from preaching as the mode of communication. I think that is good. Yes, I think that discovering, uncovering, producing and perfecting other ways of communicating the message of the kingdom is beneficial to our calling and commission to “disciple nations.” We should be producing excellent media presentations […]
Fathering and Destiny
The first words of the New Testament initialize the Gospel by sourcing Jesus to His generations: “Abraham was the father of Isaac.” Jesus became the God-man who could say, “Father is My father, and Abraham is My father, and David is My father.” At the same time, He could say, “Before Abraham was, I AM.” […]
How Real Do I Need to Be?
We all wear masks. We hide some things on purpose. I mean, we hide things for a good reason, because we aren’t totally real with everybody. We can only reveal everything to someone with whom we have covenant. The deeper the covenant, the more real we can be. Our deepest covenant is with God, so […]
Jesus on Raising the Dead
God wants you to see miracles, the dead raised, and believers activated in the power of the kingdom. Can everyone do miracles? Probably not. Can everyone see miracles happen through their prayer and faith? Yes! There is a difference. I want to talk with you about raising the dead because God is raising the dead. […]
Where is the Harvest?
Jesus defined “rich” with different terms, values of a different economy, and principles of exchange and harvest unique to His kingdom. Harvest occurs in everything, not just in crops and money. Natural resources, human resources, and spiritual resources all function with seedtime and harvest cycles. Jesus told a parable: a rich farmer had an unusually […]
