I find it interesting at how many posts I see on Facebook declaring the soon return of Christ.  Often the photos say, “Jesus is coming soon!”  Yet, as a believer and follower of Christ, I am kind of bothered by all of these.  Not because I don’t want to see Jesus soon, but because there are still so many who desperately need Him.  While I might want Him to come for my sake, truly, there is still work to be done. The earth is filled with people who are still chosen by God to be part of His Kingdom.  So, what is it that bothers me about all these posts?  It’s that…

Whether you realize it or not, you and I are going through a spiritual battle every single day. The truth is, until the Lord gives us peace with the enemy, we will have to fight it out with them. Whether we take the victory or not depends on our standing with God. You definitely want to be on the winning team The truth is there are two very distinct kingdoms operating around us. There are people who have the ability to see these spiritual places with their own eyes, but they are few. These people are called seers. Samuel in the Bible was one of many who was revealed to…

Well, have you prepared your answer yet? While the world is speaking out against one another today, debating everything under the sun, declaring wrongful words over major situations, there really is a more pressing issue at hand. Your answer… You see, a day is coming where you will be required to give an account of your life. Yep! You will be on your knees and I AM, Our Great and Mighty God will be sitting on His throne in front of and above you. Let me help you prepare your thinking a little bit. If you were called to go before CTHM King Salman bin Abdul‘aziz of Saudi Arabia this…

While in Kenya on a missions trip, I was invited to speak at a funeral service for a woman who had died. The service was out in a very large open field and when my team and I got there, I realized there must have been over two thousand people in attendance. Tents had been set up for the people to sit under. Folding chairs had been supplied. The Lord had told me just before I went to sleep the previous night that I would be speaking. After we arrived, my team was shown to our seats, but only five minutes later, I was asked to speak. As I stood…

There is an epidemic sweeping through many countries of the earth today and it is called anxiety. Worse, anxiety invites in a little friend called depression. I look at these two as being worse then the bubonic plague which killed off so many people over the centuries. It’s worse because the person who has anxiety often feels as if they are dying every day. I have good news if this is you. You do not need to have anxiety or depression. I don’t care what you have been taught. You have been lied to. Depression is a form of torment to the person who has it. Please, know this; I…

Many Christians today hold to the idea that we live on an earth where things just happen as part of nature. In fact, I hear believers often refer to this as being an act of ‘mother nature’. Who in the world is ‘mother nature’? When God formed the heavens, He told them how to look, what type of substance they would have and how to interact with each other. As part of creation, He placed an order among everything, even down to the atoms and electrons. All things have weight and a specific gravity. Just as planets rotate around each other holding each other in place, so does everything at…

Almost every day I receive a text message, email or phone call from someone who’s desperate for help with their life. When I look at Facebook or Twitter, I see so many people who live hopeless lives. The other night, I did a search on Twitter to see how many tweets there were on “I need prayer now”. I was truly astonished at how many people had tweeted that statement. What I saw in their posts were a people who do not understand why their lives are messed up. What every person needs is hope in their life Maybe you are reading this post because it’s you who is struggling.…

Do you realize that God has a destiny for you? In fact, your destiny is the purpose God has for you to be on the Earth, and it was determined before you were born. God has an assignment for you that He has predestined you to walk and stand in, and His Word is the best place to start to discover it. Jeremiah 29:11 says, “For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” God originally spoke this promise to His people Israel who were in bondage due to their…

Is it possible for you to have a life of peace and joy? Yes! But there is only one way for that to happen. You have to trust God with every breath you take.  As human beings, designed by a Creator, we make the mistake of performing tasks which God has already promised to do for us. For example; We worry about things we can’t do anything about, but He can. We fear things we can’t control, but He can. We hide from those things we don’t like to do, when it is God who wants to give us a life of adventure. We envy those things that aren’t ours,…

My cell phone rang today and when I answered it, there was a lady on the other end who I haven’t met before. I did meet her husband recently and heard his wife was really struggling with her health. In fact her health is so bad, she is having another operation very soon. When I answered my phone, she seemed really aloof to me.  Do you ever get those types of calls where it is just a strain to even continue talking to the person. You know, lots of pauses as if they have fallen asleep on the other end?  That’s how this call went. So, I thanked her for…

This morning as worship was ending with my church leadership, the Lord said something to me. “My children are always working from a line of defense instead of one of offense!” I instantly knew in my spirit what God was showing me. You see most Christians go about their days never considering the battle which is at hand against their lives. they never seem to give thought how Satan is planning and working plans to harm us. We truly are in the cross-hairs of the enemies weapons, yet when someone gets sick or has an accident, instantly panic sets in causing everyone to ask for prayer. But where was the…
