Imagination

1 Chronicles 29:16,18 - O Lord our God, all this abundance that we have prepared to build Thee a house for Thine holy name cometh of Thine hand, and is all Thine own....keep this forever in the imagination of the thoughts of the heart of Thy people, and prepare their heart unto Thee.



The Hebrew word that was translated "imagination" in the Old Testament literally means "conception." Imagination is how we conceive…

Revelation 1:11,12 - "Then I turned to see the voice that spoke with me. And having turned I saw seven golden lampstands, and in the midst of the seven lampstands One like the Son of Man, clothed with a garment down to the feet and girded about the chest with a golden band".



Here we see Jesus in the midst of the seven golden lamps.

The lampstands are allegorical representations of the… Continue

The Battle For Intimacy

The Battle for Intimacy



1) Believe that you are loved and cherished by God, and that He deeply longs for intimacy with you.



2) Believe that you have been drawn into intimacy through the finished work of the cross. Let all striving go, and believe that you are already intimate. Rest in the truth.



3) Set time aside each day to worship Him...to love Him...and to pursue Him in faith. Write…

Putting On Love



I love You, God, because You first loved me. (1 John 4:19)



You sent Your only begotten Son, Jesus, to this earth out of Your love for me and for others. I have believed on Him and now, I will not perish - I have everlasting life. You did not send Jesus to condemn me, but to save me, and I thank You for that! (John 3:16,17)



God, if You loved me that much, I should give love to others. (1 John 4:11)



So, I…

Becoming A Soldier Of The Cross

Becoming a Soldier of the Cross





The Church will begin to take on more of a "military mentality" in the coming times. We are called to be an army, and in many ways we will start to reflect this in a much more serious and focused demeanor in the leadership and the people. There is something about conflict that does focus our senses. We have been in a war against darkness of the most desperate kind for the whole history of the… Continue

Harvest Thrust

Harvest Thrust





Matthew 9:37,38 - "Then He said to His disciples, "The harvest truly is plentiful, but the laborers are few. Therefore pray the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest."



The Greek word translated "send out" is "ekballo", which at the root level means to "drive out." "Ballo" is where we derive the English word for "ballistic." There is force and sense of…

Seven Ways Christ's Blood Avails Us

Seven Ways Christ's Blood Avails Us





There are many Scriptural benefits concerning what the Blood of Jesus has done for us. According to Revelation 12:11, "And they (the believers) overcame him (the accuser of the brethren) because of the Blood of the Lamb and because of the word of their testimony, and they did not love their life even to death." We overcome by testifying what the Blood of Jesus has… Continue

Servanthood



Matthew 20:26-28 - Yet it shall not be so among you; but whoever desires to become great among you, let him be your servant. And whoever desires to be first among you, let him be your slave - just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many.



Philippians 2:3-4 - Do nothing from selfishness or empty conceit, but with humility of mind regard one another as more important than…

The Eight Names of God In

The 23rd Psalm




Jehovah Rohi - The Lord, My Shepherd (Psalms 23:1)



Although Israel learned to magnify the Lord for life, healing, victory, holiness, peace, and protection, they were still pilgrims, and they were in dire need of divine provision in their wilderness journey with all its weariness, physical needs, duties, dangers and difficulties. Thus, there came the…

Witnessing The Cross

Genesis 4:3,4 -- And in the process of time it came to pass, that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering unto the Lord. And Abel, he also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat thereof.



Cains offering was rejected because he offered the fruit of his own labors while abel offered a blood sacrifice that prophesied of the coming of Christ. This led to a rage in Cain that caused him to slay his… Continue

Spiritual Convulsions

Psalm 78:23-25 -- Yet He commanded the clouds above, and opened the doors of heaven; And He rained down manna upon them to eat, and gave them food from heaven. Man did eat the bread of angels; He sent them food in abundance.





As we read in John 6:31-35, Jesus is the manna from heaven. We must have a fresh encounter with Him, every day, and we must partake of Him every day.



We should be more addicted to the son of God…

The Great Confession

Romans 10:10 -- For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.



When you believed in your heart and confessed with your mouth that Jesus Christ is Lord -- when you received Him as your saviour -- that is called the "Great Confession".



But if you do not know how to fight the good fight of faith -- How to stay in the faith fight until you win -- your confession…

Ascending And Descending

Revelation 4:1,2 -- After these things, and behold, a door standing open in heaven, and the first voice which I had heard, like the sound of a trumpet speaking with me, said, "come up here, and I will show you what must take place after theses things. "Immediately I was in the Spirit; and behold, a throne was standing in heaven, and One sitting on the throne.





A sign in front of a church said "We Are Just A Waiting Room For Heaven."

That is not…

Calling Others Out

Matthew 5:8 -- Blessed (happy, enviably fortunate, and spiritually prosperous - possessing the happiness produced by the experience of God's favor and especially conditioned by the revelation of His grace, regardless of their outward conditions) are the pure in heart, for they shall see God!



When we see ourselves for whom we truly are meant to be in God, we can begin to call others out of their limited ways into seeing the…

Scattering The Burning Coals Abroad

Matthew 24:12 -- And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold.



Satan wants you to become the temperature of the culture that surrounds you, a believer bound by a stone cold heart. By exposure to hardness and darkness in the times that we live in, our love and passion will begin to cool by degrees.



When you see churches and individuals who do not have the energy to reach out, it's an indication that…

Spiritual Currency

Isaiah 54:1 -- "Sing, O barren, You who have not borne! Break forht into singing, anc cry aloud, You who have not labored with child! For more are the children of the desolate than the children of the married woman," says the the Lord.



You may be barren now. Some seasons that we go through are seemingly filled with desolation, but take comfort in knowing that every season has a time frame and a devine seed.

Bringing Forth The Son Of God

Luke 1:28 -- And the angel came in unto her, and said, Hail, thou that art highly favored, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women.



Ephesians 1:6 -- To the praise of the glory of His grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved.



The word "freely given" or "accepted" in Ephesians 1:6 (the Greek word - Charitoo) is the same word used for "highly favored" in Luke 1:28.

Breaking Out Of The Box

Luke 8:14 -- "The seed among the thorns represents those who listen and believe God's words but whose faith afterwards is choked out by worry and riches and the responsibilities and pleasures of life. And so they are never able to help anyone else to believe the Good News."



Your enemy wants to subdue your awareness and release a slumbering spirit. In this state he can sell you on giving in to a comfortable life thereby causing a… Continue

John 8:39 - "They answered and said to Him, 'Abraham is our father.' Jesus said to them, 'If you are Abraham's children, do the deeds of Abraham.'"Abraham was an alien and a stranger on the earth. The goal of his life was to have a place in what God…Continue
