1 Corinthians 1:9 (TPT). God is forever faithful and can be trusted to do this in you, for he has invited you to co-share the life of his Son, Jesus, the Anointed One, our King. We are invited to a life of communion and co-participation with Jesus. This is a mystical reality -- co-sharing the life of God’s Son. Jesus uses a lot of language of ​mutuality​. In John 17:26 he prays that “I myself may be in them.” This language of the indwelling Christ and our sharing of the divine ... Read More

Hello Friends: I know how challenging this time of being physically isolated has been for all of us. Dealing with the Coronavirus has put a strain on the nations of the earth.

Acts 2:18   Even on my servants, both men and women, I will pour out my Spirit in those days, and they will prophesy I am alive as a gift. Gifts are meant to be given.

Acts 2:18   Even on my servants, both men and women, I will pour out my Spirit in those days, and they will prophesy. Each day is an opportunity to bless the world.

We are blessed in order to be a blessing. Here are some thoughts that flowed through me as I considered my calling to bless the world, to ... Read More

This season is challenging, isn’t it? Even so, I believe that you and I were created for such a time as this.

And, I shared in my recent messages some ways that we can deal with those emotions and process them. In this season, I hope you are continuing to fight the good fight of faith, to let others know what you need, ... Read More

Prophetic Life Acts 2:18   Even on my servants, both men and women, I will pour out my Spirit in those days, and they will prophesy. What are you doing with your little corner of the universe?
