Experiencing the Emotions of God

Does God have emotions? Yes! And did you know that you can experience the emotions of God? Of course, God does not have fickle feelings and whimsical moods, nor is He influenced unduly by the condition of the worlds He has created. You can be sure that He never experiences PMS (Prophetic Mood Swings)! God does not sit in heaven worrying over our earthly condition, wringing His hands with sweaty palms. I don’t believe there is ever a conversation within the Godhead where something is said along the lines of, “Oh My, what are We going to do?” Yet, [...]

Today's world is filled with so many uncertainties! Life seems to be more like a turbulent roller coaster ride with no clear end in sight rather than a nice walk in the park.

Treasures from GEM: Raising Up Warriors of Hope in our Nation’s Prisons

By |2021-02-22T18:18:42-06:00February 22nd, 2021|Recent Articles|0 Comments

"Freely We Have Received—Now Freely We GIVE" The Lord has called us at God Encounters Ministries to be good stewards of the riches and treasures He has given us. In fact, two years ago, you helped us establish a new expression of GEM Missions, "Treasures from GEM." Together, we gave away HUNDREDS of books and discipleship materials to prison ministries, funeral homes for grieving families, parental care ministries, homeless ministries, various outreaches and so much more. The Holy Spirit has laid it on our heart to do it again! Warriors of Hope Arise! We want to do our part in raising up Warriors of Hope [...]

How You Must Properly Steward Prophecy

By |2021-02-22T18:04:18-06:00February 22nd, 2021|Charisma Blog|0 Comments

Years ago, when I was in Kansas City with Mike Bickle and others, Bill Hamon (a mature prophet who is the founder of an extensive ministry called Christian International) taught us about the meaning and importance of [...]
