God is working in the waiting. How often do we feel stuck in the "in between"? In between life seasons...In between jobs...In between relationships. The "in between" feels like you'll be stuck waiting forever. But God is working in the waiting. God is even working in this season of the Covid-19 virus as well. When there is so much negativity ...
Be Prepared - Prophetically What is Coming PLEASE READ - This may make the religious person mad but will cause the CHRISTIAN to REJOICE. The Lord has spoken to me and said . . . "BE PREPARED!"Being a Boy Scout was a privilege growing up; camping, learning good morals, and respect for God and country. The Boy Scout MOTTO was "BE PREPARED...
Humanity suffers not only for what we do . . . but for what we fail to do. We are not chastised for making mistakes but for failing to recognize and rectify them. Let us approach the Father with hearts of repentance this Thanksgiving. Let us be thankful for grace and mercy and recognize only because of Jesus we are saved and set free fr...
Guilt Guilt is the biggest weapon in the enemies arsenal. There are several others but when guilt hits a believer we tend to retreat or come to a standstill and not move forward into our divine destiny. Satan used guilt on Adam and Eve and they hid from the Lord in the cool of the day. He uses it on Christians to keep us from approaching God ...
I have entered my thirty first year of ministry. I can truly say that I have been blessed. This week I have the privilege of preaching at Yelvington Camp meeting located nearOwensboro Kentucky. I was thinking this morning how awesome it is to be preaching the same place that Billy Sunday preached many years ago. Billy Sunday was k...
A Troubled Heart Fear and Anxiety have a way of overtaking one who believes the subliminal lies of the enemy. Atmospheric demonic spirits lurk in the shadows awaiting for misfortune and unforeseen circumstances so they can play havoc with our minds and emotions. Since the fall of humanity, Satan and the forces of hell have been see...
Where are the morals and standards we were raised with? What has happened to right and wrong? Why has good become bad and bad become good? There has been a major shift in moral standards in the past few years not only in the culture but also within the church. The demonic influence of political correctness...where we are more concerned ...
Come out! Come out! Wherever you are! We have entered into a time of lulling in the church; "A falling away." It is disconcerting to watch the church accept false doctrine and deviate from orthodox truth. Paul wrote Timothy warning this, 2 Timothy 4:2-5,"Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all lo...
Distractions!!!Have you notice all that is going on I the world to bring people to a mindset of hopelessness? It's obvious the spirit of lawlessness and a spirit of anti-christ is at work. The church denomination I love and serve divided over human sexuality issues. The government politicians radically divided over defining the constitution and car...
In the Jewish mindset, each Sunset is a time to start over. The new day always started at sunset. So when we say, "This is the day the Lord has made. I will rejoice and be glad in it "(Psalm 118:4) we need to know the day we are thanking God for actually started at sunset. It is a time we are transitioning to a time of Shabot...
I read this and had to share. Happy Thanksgiving!Ric The tradition in our home is to place 5 kernels of corn at everyone's place at the table and recount the story that has been passed down for generations. These 5 little kernels have played a big part in our Thanksgiving story here at StoneGable! The story goes… On Nov. 11, 1620 the Mayflowe...
The flesh always wants to be first. Occasionally we are like terrible-tempered Lucy in the Peanuts comic strip. Lucy comes into the room where here little brother, Linus, is watching TV. He says to her, "I was here first, so I get to watch what I want to watch." Without a word, Lucy marches to the TV and flips the channe...
Discovering Your Identity - Part 2 Matthew 1:11 11 Then a voice came from heaven, "You are My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased." I am God's son, I belong to His family, and He is my Dad. Rom 8:15 For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, "Abba, Father." Eph 1...
A Deeper Walk With Jesus: A True Identity In October 2007, Abraham Abdallah, a 32-year-old former dishwasher, pleaded guilty in a New York court to masterminding the biggest identity theft attempted so far. He was attempting to fraudulently gain over $US 80 million. He had 800 fake credit cards as well as 20,000 credit card blanks in his poss...
The Heart of the Father Do you ever wonder how Father God processes the backslidden nature of humanity? Do you think His heart is grieved as He sees how far we have moved from His direct requirement to live morally with Him and each other.We see His commandments broken daily by church leaders, church goers, politicians, and people as we go ab...
A Place I Like to Hang Out... Do you remember riding around in a car at night as a teenager looking for friends to hang out with. We called it "cruising". I have to admit, I was looking for trouble and usually found it. There is a place I like to hang out now that has been provided by Jesus; it is at the corner of MERCY and GRACE. MERCY is de...
Truth vs Political Correctness Who convinced the church to preach without offending others? Why has political correctness replaced biblical truth? 2 Timothy 4:3 "For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their ...
If we all had one desire in common, it would be to be used of God.Sometimes that seems so out of reach.We feel as though we're not qualified or that we don't have enough Bible knowledge or Spiritual maturity to be used by God. So the question is, "What kind of people does God use?" I believe in looking at Scripture we discover the answer to t...
Jesus had been preaching for almost a week in the temple before sitting down and eating Passover with His disciples. I am sure the current teachings of Jesus they heard during the week of were still lingering in the their minds.
The setting: Judas had left the room and Peter had been warned of his upcoming betrayals when Jesus begins to encourage the disciples. This is the setting when Jesus says these words,
“I am the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser. Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit He takes away; and every branch that bears fruit He prunes, that it may bear more fruit. You are already clean because of the word which I have spoken to you. Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me. I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing.”
- John 15:1-5 NKJV
I realize many who read this may be upset with what I am about to write. Know I am writing from a prophetic heart and I desire to see renewal and revival in America again.
We are living in a time where civil disruption and the rise mental distress is all around us. We are living in a time of total spiritual confusion and political chaos.
Would you agree?
"And for this reason God will send them strong delusion, that they should believe the lie, that they all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness."
II Thessalonians 2:11-12
The enemy is creating great chaos to mislead many by a spirit of antichrist which is on the rise misleading this current and future generations.
