A mystery is something hidden. God strategically hides things, keeps them hidden, and reveals them just as strategically as He hid them, in His time. As the head of the year arrives September 30, we can expect the revealing of things God has hidden. He has preserved and reserved inheritance for this time, anticipating a […]

Anointing Hits the Target God has targeted Brasil for the Anointing. The Anointing always hits the target! On time. On center. The targets of God rest upon assignments God gives. The Anointing rests upon people and places where God is strategically focusing His attention to fulfill kingdom purpose. God targeted Brasil because He has given […]

Today, I’m musing about how much energy, time, and emotional investment is wasted by God’s people attempting to make one facet of the church’s mission the dominate or total focus of its resources. Personal Mission – Gifts of the Spirit This effort can present itself simply as spiritual gifts on high octane fuel, so much […]

Jesus designed a strategy to advance His kingdom perfectly consistent with His thinking and, therefore, completely foreign to the thinking of this world order, or “the spirit of the world.” Paul reminds us that preaching and Gospel appear foolish to the world order.

The power of the Cross, the life of the Resurrection, the authority of the Ascension, and the intercession of Jesus now guarantee that the purposes of the Father will be fulfilled and He will get everything He wants. No one in heaven or earth could do that […]

Among the gifts given by Holy Spirit, one is given special attention by Scripture, emphasized as a gift of the Spirit to be pursued, a gift valued by its capacity to build, encourage, and embolden the people of God. The gift of prophecy. Paul makes some really strong statements with regard to this enabling capacity […]

Another leader is being revealed as a fraud with a fatal flaw. A lack of true accountability kept it hidden. The failure is broader than one person. And, the enemy will attempt to establish a lie that all leaders are frauds, lack true accountability, and have hidden fatal flaws. Why? To further erode honor. This […]

God’s strategy to leave Egypt is not the same as His strategy to prepare for inheritance. The strategy for entering into inheritance is different from the strategy of preparation for inheritance. God preserves inheritance for a faithful generation who pass the tests of preparation in the desert, the tests of growing and maturing that reveal […]
