Your Natural and Spiritual Senses

By |2023-06-08T17:01:40-05:00June 8th, 2023|Recent Articles|0 Comments

God is an emotive God and every dimension of the fruit of the spirit is distinctly filled with emotions. So, it is important to approach emotive discernment with balance, understanding, and revelation concerning the realm of natural and spiritual senses. Hebrews 5:13-14 says, “For everyone who partakes only of milk is not accustomed to the word of righteousness, for he is an infant. But solid food is for the mature, who because of practice have their senses trained to discern good and evil.” One of the things that I always highlight about this verse, is that it doesn’t say good versus evil, but that the mature [...]

Holiness and the Power of Conviction

By |2023-05-23T17:46:43-05:00June 1st, 2023|Recent Articles|0 Comments

The conviction and conversion experience is the work of the Holy Spirit, sometimes experienced as dramatic and sometimes gentler in nature. In every case, an encounter with the Holy Spirit arouses an emotional response. And such encounters are not reserved for an elite few, such as the Old Testament patriarchs; they are for everyone. Jesus guaranteed that all generations would have access to God through the gift of His Holy Spirit. Remember what He told His disciples before His crucifixion: “I tell you the truth. It is to your advantage that I go away; for if I do not [...]

Closing and Opening Doors

By |2023-05-24T14:40:07-05:00May 24th, 2023|Recent Articles|0 Comments

Closing Old Doors Many people in the body of Christ are in a season of closing doors — because you must close one door before you can open the next door. Closing the door may relate to a relationship, it might be a business situation, it might be a partnership dealing, or it might be related to a church alignment. No matter the arena of life, closing a door is important so you can pass through a new door into the fulfillment of a future promise. Isaiah 22:22 says, “The key of House of David I will lay on [...]

Jerusalem – A City of Destiny!

By |2023-05-17T12:03:48-05:00May 17th, 2023|Recent Articles|0 Comments

Why is Jerusalem special? Jerusalem is a city of destiny and in ancient times, maps displayed Jerusalem as the center of the earth. Jerusalem is mentioned 881 times in scriptures, and is the only city in the entire Bible that we are commanded to pray for by name. While Jerusalem is mentioned across the entire Bible, one of the primary places is Psalm 122:6-9 where it declares, “pray for the peace of Jerusalem. May they prosper who love you, may peace be within your walls and prosperity within your palaces. For the sake of my brothers and my friends, [...]

Giant Slayers Arise!

By |2023-05-11T13:56:16-05:00May 11th, 2023|Recent Articles|0 Comments

The Holy Spirit is asking a question right now. “Where are the giant slayers for this generation?” This question is rumbling around on the inside of me—about myself and about you. In Numbers 14:24, the NASB version states, “But as for My servant Caleb, because he has had a different spirit and has followed Me fully, I will bring him into the land which he entered, and his descendants shall take possession of it.” We desperately need the word of the Lord in this hour. There is such an atmosphere of fear and intimidation in our culture, and so many negative reports. Scripture [...]
