"So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them." - Genesis 1:27

Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. 1 Peter 5:8

The enemy seeks to make a weakened Christian a pawn in his…

God will use PRESSURE to perfect us as we come to know and understand His purpose for our life! He promises to even use the plans of the enemy and turn them around for our good!  And, the more that we gain ground for His Kingdom the more we reveal God's glory.

GOD'S GLORY IN US

Everywhere we go, we see…

Transition times are when the Lord redefines and makes adjustments necessary for us to move forward. He gives us new focus and direction. He teaches us about Himself in a new way.

If we are in a time of major transition it is easy to feel stressed or uncertain. This is a time to trust that God has your best interest at hand.(Isaiah 43:18,19)

We are bombarded daily with…

When Jesus said, "Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand" (Matthew 4:17), it was not a message of judgment and condemnation – "Repent for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand" offers A NEW WAY OF THINKING and being so that righteousness ( the ability to stand in the presence of Father God without the sense of guilt, inferiority or condemnation – since all our sins are forgiven (Romans 8:1,2) can no…

Now is the time to realize that the Lord desires to empower us to move from our current ability to a new level of power strength, or a greater ability of potential in the Lord. This increase is not a one-time touch but a constant and ever-increasing flow of the spirit of might. It will empower us to press through any and all obstacles, limitations, and fears to advance with a perseverance of progressive breakthrough in order to progress to new levels in God's…

God's desire is that we fully understand our Christ identity and the extent of the calling on the lives of His saints. The call is immense – full of His "kabod" glory, and it is vital to our covenant DESTINY in Christ that we have His revelation on the fullness of the call in this incredible hour we are chosen to serve Him in.

The World is Getting Darker...But We Should Get Excited!

This is truly the Kairos moment for our generation.

Where are the ones that are going to walk in the authority and the power that God has given us?

HIS POWER AND AUTHORITY IN…

1 Corinthians 2:12 - "Now we have received not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might understand the things freely given us by God."

As we grow, through revelation, in our understanding of God’s purpose for our life, living in our Christ identity as God’s sons and daughters, and our true riches in His glory, we will live out of…

 "Then the angel showed me a river with the water of life, clear as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb. It flowed down the center of the main street. On each side of the river grew a tree of life, bearing twelve crops of fruit, with a fresh crop each month. The leaves were used for medicine to heal nations." Revelation 22:1-2 NLT…

Many have been experiencing intense pressure in their personal lives and in their ministries!  Families and finances may have been under attack and many believers may have felt like giving up!

These attacks have formed a layer of "slate" between your current dwelling place and a next level anointing! The attacks exist to make you give up before reaching the oil of restoration and release into the next level of your…

Mark 3:27 NLT - "For who is powerful enough to enter the house of a strong man like satan and plunder his goods? Only someone even stronger someone who could tie him up and then plunder his house" (Matthew 12:29). Christ in you is the one who is stronger and able to overcome. This is not the only place where the Lord plainly described a man as a "house" or habitation of the evil one.…

 Luke 11:13, "If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him."

In the story of the prodigal son where the father killed the fattened calf and gave the returned son the signet…

Stand firm and do not be moved!   As believers, we are rooted and grounded in His magnificent love.  Because Jesus overwhelms our heart as we meditate on His love flowing into our heart so that we can nourish the lives of others with it, we are established in His love and we can have a peace that passes natural understanding. And we have COURAGE, the depth of which is confidence in the Lord – we become a risk taker and get out of the boat and…

To secure our attention and place us on the pathway God desires, there are strategies that He employs that are very effective. As much as we are not to be ignorant of satan's devices (2 Cor. 2:11), we must be even more knowledgeable of the ways of the Lord (Ps. 25:4). Knowing God's ways will result in us experiencing His mighty acts (Ps. 103:7).

Three ways God works…

 In the flesh, we are confined in time; but not when we get into the spirit. When we are in the spirit, we can see both backward in time and forward. It is then that God can show us a word of knowledge about a person or situation or a "forward" which is a prophecy. A word of wisdom for us, or someone, could also be considered a "forward." This is because we have His Spirit in us and…

"I was asleep but my heart was awake, A voice! My beloved was knocking" - Song of Solomon 5:2

THE KEY COMPONENTS OF CREATIVE PRAYER ARE:

Passion – Immersion – Revelation – Creativity

1. The best way to prepare for His…

"Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! According to His great mercy, He has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead."  - 1 Peter 1:3

The Lord is redefining His Church and calling them out of a place of stagnancy and redundancy into a place of passion.

Have you ever felt…

"...He has granted to us His precious and very great promises, so that through them you may become partakers of the divine nature..."  - 2 Peter 1:4

Promises from God are met with contradiction in the natural realm. God is announcing a reality to you that will most likely appear very distant and disconnected from your present situation. God's promises are prophetic glimpses of the realities…

Regardless of what we see or don't see in our earthly circumstances, we can be encouraged by four things from Jesus in His teachings on prayer (Luke 11:1–13; 18:1–8):

1. Our prayers will be answered. "'So I say to you: Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you'" (Luke 11:9).

Matthew 3:13-17 - 13 Then Jesus came from Galilee to John at the Jordan [River], to be baptized by him. 14 But John tried to prevent Him [vigorously protesting], saying, “It is I who need to be baptized by You, and do You come to me?” 15 But Jesus replied to him, “Permit it just now; for this is the fitting way for us to fulfill all righteousness.” Then John permitted [it and baptized] Him. 16 After Jesus was baptized, He came up immediately out of…
