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 […]

Given the amazing level of technology available to modern man, leaders should be producing more coorespondence and written revelation. The opportunity to function in this way could hardly be avoided without conscious substitution of other priorities or a failure to recognize this discipline as a priority of leaders. Leaders should be writing. Here’s my thinking: […]

I believe we are at a discussion point concerning how God and the Bible view destiny and purpose fulfillment and how this generation has blended humanism and existentialism into their approach and experience of personal development. Our discussion will have a focus on the end results: “having the end in mind from the beginning.” The […]

Movements create the need for meaning as the message of the movement matures. Great moves of God are interpreted by the consequences of the experiences people have during the moments of personal encounter, and these consequences are often based upon an interpretation of Scripture that seems to fit the experience. The great revival movements of […]

You are exceptional. Everyone else is exceptional. Exceptionalism is a mark of your created destiny and identity. Uniqueness and exceptionalism have limits, however, and should not become excuses for refusing to be accountable or justifying bad behavior and disobedience.

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 […]

Step 4 – Spiritual Revolution Isaiah says that God has been repeating the same message over and over, but the leaders of Israel are stupid with drunkenness. They simply refuse to listen to the revelation of God’s expectations, insisting upon God speaking a different message. So, God will reset the foundation cornerstone and put a […]

In ministry, the gifts of word of knowledge and wisdom, respectively, do not always function together. Some people function well in word of knowledge who lack a corresponding function of wisdom and discernment. While the Bible doesn’t specifically say that we should pray for gifts other than prophecy and interpretation of spiritual language, activating wisdom […]
