The enemy’s greatest distraction from purpose is potential. Our nation fell for this distraction from purpose. Potential produces overt individualism: we become enamored with “what’s in this for me?” Potential invests our passion in the pursuit of what is possible, as if that is the stuff of creativity. Potential moves us toward random, the celebration […]

Revival Priorities
Revolutionary revival resets God’s priorities, the order of God’s “first things first.” While we never enough time and resources to do everything, we always have time and resources to do first things first. New Year’s resolutions arise during this season because we have a healthy “forward look” at specific times. These resolutions arise from a […]
Inherited Purposes
God’s purposes are eternal. Nothing can destroy them. The power of the Cross, the life of the Resurrection, the authority of the Ascension, and the intercession of Jesus now guarantee that the purposes of the Father will be fulfilled and He will get everything He wants. No one in heaven or earth could do that […]
Evangels: Preaching and Publishing Good Reports
Both basar and tobe are used in Hebrew to speak of announcing good news or reports of victory. [See both together in 1 Kings 1:42.] A messenger is sent, a runner, to give the report of the battle or war, and his report of good news declares some portion of the victory. The messenger can […]
Write It Down!
If you want to lead, write. If you want to hear God’s voice, write. If you want to dream God dreams, write. If you want to mature, write. If you want to know more of what God is saying to you, write. If you want to expand on what Holy Spirit is teaching you, write. […]
A Case Study in Prophetic Messaging
Another poorly communicated prophetic dream by a young prophet who continues to insist upon seeing himself as a voice with greater volume than he should be applying to his words. The latest edition of “dream time quotations from Jesus” is about Marco Rubio, and the dream, as other dream presented by this young prophetic man, […]
Legitimate Ecclesia Leadership
Kingdom Come! The kingdom is organized and ordered by the King. He has blueprints for building. He has schematics for body building. He designs the bride’s adornment. The motivation and licensure for most ministries is illegitimate. The blueprints do not call for this design. Leaders build outhouses that have not site preparation in […]
Wanna Be a Champion?
Have you got what it takes to become a champion? Or, are you already topping out your spiritual game? Are you called to be a generalist, or specialist? Do you have the strength of will to endure the process of rising to the highest? What Does It Take? Because I am called to produced leaders, […]
Brasil Has Inherited Purposes for Fulfillment
Preserved Purposes God’s purposes are eternal. Nothing can destroy them. The power of the Cross, the life of the Resurrection, the authority of the Ascension, and the intercession of Jesus now guarantee that the purposes of the Father will be fulfilled and He will get everything He wants. No matter what people do, what hell […]
Taming Your Conspiracy Theories
Christians love conspiracy theories, especially ones involving the antichrist. Such theories become the basis for rather bizarre responses to reality sometimes at the expense of the more important assignments Jesus has given the Ecclesia.
Breakthrough Attitudes Necessary to Awakening Leadership
We are in the opening acts of an Awakening. For me, this is the seventh Awakening for the United States of America, “Great Awakenings” can be defined in many ways…at any rate, the curtain is up on the next one. God’s Word gives us many examples of Divine strategies for moves of God with national […]
Kingdom Leadership Dynamics: Five Dynamics of the Leadership of Jesus
At some point we accepted the idea that shepherding is the preeminent leadership role of “church.” In doing so, we misread the word as a title instead of a function, and we further eroded leadership by assuming that “sheep” is the preeminent behavior of the remainder of the Body. We lost the need for apostles, […]
Confronting the Prevailing Spiritual Condition
Wherever Jesus, Paul, Simon Peter, John, or others went representing the kingdom of God, they encounter resistance for the prevailing spiritual condition. The prevailing spiritual condition manifested itself in the culture dominating the spiritual arena in which that spiritual condition had influence. As kingdom leaders, they began a process of preparing kingdom leaders who could […]
Functioning Prophetically
Leadership Functions in the Body
The spiritual Body is the ecclesia. The ecclesia is a spiritual Body. The two terms denote different ways of looking at how they operate. They are both spiritual because they are both kingdom. The kingdom is spiritual. Beginning with this understanding helps us avoid taking the analogies too far or attempting to make them too […]
