This month we hit the ground running with prayers of spiritual warfare for victory over demonic attacks, oppression, and footholds. It surprised me, considering you are Believers strong in faith and the Word, but the enemy is not concerned with those in his prisons, but rather with the saints who are tearing them down. So,… Continue reading Blog Prayer Debriefing Issue 1

Desperate Sons
"Desperate Sons" is a book by Les Standiford that tells the story of the "Sons of Liberty", the band of anarchists who led the American Colonies to war and seceding from Britain and establishing America. Never a popular revolution, at no time did a majority support the American Revolution and around a third of the… Continue reading Desperate Sons

Believer’s Testimony We were on vacation and I mentioned "The Lord" to an acquaintance in conversation, he stopped and acknowledged his mutual faith. I added, "The Lord’s name is Yeshua", just so there was no misunderstanding. The next day I had an opportunity to ask him about his faith. One of the things we talked… Continue reading Magazine Issue 4
Greatest Moment In History
The single greatest event in human history is the death of Yeshua on the Roman Cross, at the date that time changed from BC (before Christ) to AD (After death). The pagan world is striving to change this time distinction, but the evidence, credibility and knowledge of Yeshua Messiah, (Hebrew for Jesus Christ) is too… Continue reading Greatest Moment In History
Meaninglessness and Vanity
I spent the night in a restless dream of effort without resolution, completion or meaning. I remembered Solomon's exhaustive analysis, "Meaningless! Meaningless!" says the Teacher. "Utterly meaningless! Everything is meaningless." (Ecclesiastes 1:2) Yes, and he observed what I experienced in my dream. "All their days their work is grief and pain; even at night their… Continue reading Meaninglessness and Vanity
With Every Temptation
"No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it." (1 Corinthians 10:13) If we believed and lived this we… Continue reading With Every Temptation
God’s Way
I once heard a minister who taught that God responds to prayer, which is scriptural. However, he extended it much further, such that we have been granted great authority through prayer to change the world or refuse to pray and allow the enemy to prevail. I don't want to get into an argument about doctrine… Continue reading God’s Way
Prayer Service Followup
In our post, "Spiritual Service", I announced and outlined an ongoing prayer initiative. Very briefly I explained how important prayer and you, the followers of this blog, are in the Kingdom of God. Principally we are praying for you, but scripture teaches we all are part of a Royal Priesthood.(1 Pet. 2:5, 9) My vision… Continue reading Prayer Service Followup
The Broken Spoke
Many things are wrong in America, besides a Government Office obtained through fraud, distortions regarding a pandemic, riots, division, immorality, abortion, drug addiction, broken families and political corruption. The overarching issue and underlying problem is the absence of justice. The rule of law no longer functions. "So justice is driven back, and righteousness stands at… Continue reading The Broken Spoke
Spiritual Service
When I consider a lifetime of Spiritual exercise what stands out is prayer, intercession, and supplication. As a child some of my earliest memories are prayer conversations with God. That conversation never stopped, but it changed and grew in faith and knowledge. Anything that was accomplished was God's grace and was effected in conjunction with… Continue reading Spiritual Service
Enter Heaven’s Realm
There will be a time in everyone's existence where all the shadows are illuminated, revealing a startling reality, a shuddering awareness as we enter the realm of everlasting day. The presence of God will fill all with glory, perceived in awe, fear and wonder. Everyone will encounter their Creator, Father God, to give an account and… Continue reading Enter Heaven’s Realm
A Dire Emergency
In this situation everyone is tested and I can't say how I might respond, but the Word and Spirit give insight into a distinction between the natural and Spiritual. The actions of the Spirit are not subject to reason or natural responses. We've witnessed this from hero's who consistently affirm no credit for their deeds.… Continue reading A Dire Emergency
The Covenant of Marriage
"You cover the Lord’s altar with tears, with weeping and groaning because he no longer regards the offering or accepts it with favor from your hand. But you say, 'Why does he not?' Because the Lord was witness between you and the wife of your youth, to whom you have been faithless, though she is… Continue reading The Covenant of Marriage
Needs and Timing
Does God care about individuals? We in America are so individualistic, such a question is paramount. In other societies, individuals may ask such questions, but their reality overcomes their hope. For example, in the Third World getting enough food for each day is a priority over self-actualization. Some of you may know Maslow’s hierarchy of… Continue reading Needs and Timing
God in the Small Things
We needed to pour some concrete, quite a bit of it. We found a concrete contractor who began in a few days. I thought it good business to pay as we went and he was willing for me to pay the supplier directly for the cement. I assumed I could pay by check, but as… Continue reading God in the Small Things
Heaven Lost
Heaven is described in the Bible and most everyone would like to go to heaven. The Eastern religions do not describe a delightful heaven, but rather, depict an absence of earth's pain or a nirvana of nothingness after an endless cycle of reincarnation. Islam promises seventy virgins to martyr's in Allah's jihad, which sounds rather… Continue reading Heaven Lost

Transformation by the Spirit A person is not a Jew who is one only outwardly, nor is circumcision merely outward and physical. No, a person is a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision is circumcision of the heart, by the Spirit, not by the written code. Such a person’s praise is not from other… Continue reading Magazine Issue 3
The Greatest Mystery
There are many mysteries in this world. There are wonders in the world that hold secrets of their ancient construction. The mystery of the world's shape was hidden until Magellan proved it in 1522, though Pythagoras asserted it in 500 BC. Many of the wonders of the ancient world were related to pagan gods and… Continue reading The Greatest Mystery
Women in the Church
"Let a woman learn quietly with all submissiveness. I do not permit a woman to teach or to exercise authority over a man; rather, she is to remain quiet. For Adam was formed first, then Eve; and Adam was not deceived, but the woman was deceived and became a transgressor." I Timothy 2 :11-14 "As in… Continue reading Women in the Church
Coping With Change
Change is part of life and it can be good or bad, but in either case it requires adjustment on our part. We might assume that change for good would be easy and change for bad difficult. In reality, both have their own set of adjustments that must be addressed. For example, we often cannot… Continue reading Coping With Change
Those That Have Crept In
"For certain people have crept in unnoticed who long ago were designated for this condemnation, ungodly people, who pervert the grace of our God into sensuality and deny our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ. . . .just as Sodom and Gomorrah and the surrounding cities, which likewise indulged in sexual immorality and pursued unnatural… Continue reading Those That Have Crept In
The Wilderness Generation
God wanted Israel to possess the land He promised Abraham. In Egypt they had fallen into slavery, it didn't happen overnight, but Egyptian rulers arose that had no knowledge of their past or Joseph and Egypt was not their homeland. In spite of God’s miraculous deliverance of Israel from Egypt, they doubted and sent spies… Continue reading The Wilderness Generation
Enter Into His Rest
"So then, there remains a Sabbath rest for the people of God, for whoever has entered God’s rest has also rested from his works as God did from his. Let us therefore strive to enter that rest, so that no one may fall by the same sort of disobedience." Hebrews 4:9-11 Once we are saved, through… Continue reading Enter Into His Rest
Desires Fulfilled
A day is coming after time has become meaningless and evil destroyed when all our many alternating desires are fulfilled. We will not be under the physical limitations we are now as space and time can not contain or experience such complete fulfillment. We are limited to physical senses, but within our spirit there is… Continue reading Desires Fulfilled
The Ultimate Authority
"He entered his headquarters again and said to Jesus, 'Where are you from?' But Jesus gave him no answer. So Pilate said to him, 'You will not speak to me? Do you not know that I have authority to release you and authority to crucify you?' Jesus answered him, 'You would have no authority over… Continue reading The Ultimate Authority
