Are you more likely to forward a text or an email that is short and funny, or one that is long and life-imparting? Whatever your answer to that is, why is it the case? What do the people in your Contacts list need? Your answer should not be influenced by how may diplomas or licenses you have. Or don’t. If you could help someone in Wal-Mart find the coffee aisle, […]

Heal The Sick
If I am sick and not getting healed too quickly, someone may tell me to go to a physician. “God gave us the medicine.” What sort of label should be placed on me if I prefer something supernatural? Jesus did not tell the people He sent out with instructions on how to bring the Kingdom that sounded like, “Try to heal them. If that doesn’t work, give them money so […]
Increased Faith
Now without faith it is impossible to please God, for the one who draws near to Him must believe that He exists and rewards those who seek Him.(Hebrews 11:6 Holman Christian Standard Bible ©®) But whoever doubts stands condemned if he eats, because his eating is not from faith, and everything that is not from faith is sin. (Romans 14:23 Holman Christian Standard Bible ©®) But she came, knelt before […]
Jesus the Conquerer
Alexander the “Great” conquered his enemies with knowledge and power. Jesus conquered His enemies (specifically you and me) by love and grace. It might be very wise to take our human enemies to Jesus in the spirit of intercession, and to ask Him to love them until He is victorious. “Give to everyone who asks from you, and from one who takes away your things, don’t ask for them back. […]
Results or Consequences
When we work with Jesus, obeying His Spirit when He works in us to will and to do what pleases Jesus, we get results. When we work against Jesus, resisting the baptisms and circumstances in which He wants to mature us and prove Himself, we get consequences. One person gives freely, yet gains more; another withholds what is right, only to become poor. A generous person will be enriched, and […]
Effective Rain
Water that is in motion is working. Either it is causing erosion, by which it can change landscape or the path of a river, or it is harnessed and its energy converted to working for humans. If it condenses as rain and falls on the ground, it causes life to be produced in seeds and plants. If it sits still, it only stinks or evaporates. Even these two actions are […]
Re-Incarnated
I believe in reincarnation. Every day, the Spirit of Jesus should reappear in the earth through my body. “I assure you: Whoever receives anyone I send receives Me, and the one who receives Me receives Him who sent Me.” (John 13:20 Holman Christian Standard Bible ©®) Manifest Jesus by bearing the fruit of the Spirit of Jesus. Be awesome!
Not Tired
“Come to Me, all of you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. All of you, take up My yoke and learn from Me, because I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for yourselves. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.” (Matthew 11:28-30 Holman Christian Standard Bible ©®) If you go home tired from your work each day, […]
Like He Said
Be careful to make everything according to the model of them you have been shown on the mountain. (Exodus 25:40 Holman Christian Standard Bible ©®) What has the Lord shown you about your life? What are some of the prophetic words over you that have not yet become visible or come to pass? Be careful to allow into your life only things that match the pattern you have been shown […]
Built Up
Knowledge puffs up, but love builds up. Build others up. Be built up. 1 Corinthians 8
