Solar Bibles: Spreading the Light of the Word of God
Greetings to Each of You at God Encounters Ministries! The Lord has called us at God Encounters Ministries to be good stewards of the riches and treasures He has given us. Through GEM Missions, we have been able to make GREAT impact and share the gospel with thousands of hungry people this year through our Solar Powered Bibles Project! Both in Africa and in Europe! In July, 350 of these unique bibles were delivered into Northern Ethiopia. Fighting by opposing forces is increasing in several areas. These Bibles are providing hope and light in a very difficult situation. The students in the mission school are continuing [...]
Try Tears: A Key to the Next Outpouring
“What do you think I do with all those bottles of tears in heaven?” The Lord asked me this question during a time of teaching. Romans 12:15 reads, "Rejoice with those who rejoice and weep with those who weep." There's a time that we pause, we move out of our own sphere. A time we step into another’s, and we weep with those who weep. Now, why am I calling this, “Try Tears: A Key to the Next Outpouring”? It comes from a testimony from the life of William Booth. Booth and his wife, Katherine, were the founders of the Salvation Army [...]
Deliverance Made Easy
Believe it or not, deliverance can be easy! Achieving deliverance from darkness can definitely be a battle, but by grace complete victory belongs to you, provided that you are prepared, well-clothed and well-armed with God’s every provision (see Ephesians 6:11-18). In fact, most of your success in battle lies in the preparation. The actual engagement of deliverance does not have to be messy or difficult at all. (Obviously, it is important not to take the enemy lightly or flippantly. For a much more thorough handling of this subject, see my Deliverance from Darkness Curriculum Kit.) The Gospel of Deliverance Jesus came to [...]
Prophetic Insights for Hebrew Year 5783
We have crossed over into a Hebrew New Year of 5783. There is the civil calendar that we live in, and then there is the Hebrew calendar that we celebrate—but God's calendar is the Hebrew calendar. Although many prophetic people will do a forecasting of things that are to come in the new year, looking at the Hebrew symbols and letters and things of that nature, I don’t tend to be one who interprets the lettering and the numbers, per se. Instead, out of my prophetic calling, I tend to lean into what the Holy Spirit is highlighting to me in scripture, God [...]
Your Inner Warrior
Did you know if you are a “Born Again Believer in Christ Jesus” there is a warrior inside you? That’s right, you have an inner warrior. Sometimes you need to push pause. Sometimes you need to sit down and count the cost. There is a time to reevaluate. There is a time to get reequipped. But then there is also a time to reach inside yourself and say, “Hmm, I’m not a quitter!” And then guess what? You enter back into the arena—and allow the warrior to rise up on the inside of you! I am an observer. I am an observer of [...]
Believing for the Great Harvest
What is the Great Harvest ultimately about? It is God's great, deep love for all those whom He has created. It is about His desire that no one should perish, but that everyone should be saved and be restored to a passionate relationship of love and oneness with Christ Jesus. How can we offer God a love worthy of who He is? How can we partner with the Holy Spirit for an unprecedented harvest of souls? As Jeremiah 33:3 states,"Call upon me and I will show you great and mighty things, which you do not know.” This coming week, we are crossing over [...]
3 Major Prophetic Flashpoints
As we prepare to cross over into a New Hebrew Year, I want to share with you three major prophetic flashpoints that were given to me in three sequential dreams in one night. For a moment, let’s peer into our lead scripture concerning open heavens. “After He was baptized, Jesus came up immediately from the water; and behold, the heavens were opened, and he saw the spirit of God descending as a dove and settling on Him, and behold, a voice from the heavens said, “This is My beloved Son with whom I am well pleased.” Matthew 3:16–17 The Spirit didn’t just [...]
3 Keys to Open Heavens, Minds, and Doors
At least three keys are needed to open heavens, minds, and doors for revival breakthrough: Prayer and fasting God’s presence Prophetic revelation I believe each of these aspects can be demonstrated biblically and historically regarding the elements that precede revival. Let’s briefly look at all three elements. Key #1: Prayer and Fasting Prayer with fasting is a powerful key to making an opening for breakthrough. One of my favorite revival testimonies comes from the 1949–52 Hebrides Revival. The Hebrides is a set of islands off the northwest coast of Scotland. Two sisters, Peggy and Christine Smith, eighty-four and eighty-two years old, respectively, [...]
