Jesus has a specific procedure for personal transformation. He has provided everything you need to so radically changed, inside out, that your destiny can be fully restored: you can be the person God created you to be. He is not turning you into someone else. He is restoring you along the lines of what He […]

Others
To find truly selfless people is rare. “Claiming the right to one’s self” enters near the top of the list of spiritual complications, and the kingdom needs people pumping the blood of a servant’s heart. Selfishness and servant leadership travel parallel pathways. The crossover from “me” to “others” punches a hole through solid rock. Jesus spent […]
A Prophetic Vision for North Florida

Kingdom Leadership Dynamics, Part 4, Five Spiritual Leadership Dynamics

Kingdom Leadership Dynamics, Part 3, Principles and Protocols
A kingdom always functions on principles and protocols.

Giving Birth to Purpose, Part 1: Creation Groans
That is both future and present because both suffering and glory are here and now while reaching and progressing toward ultimate passion and eternal glory. Comparing pathos with glory isn’t an even measurement system because you can’t measure one or the other with the same ruler or scale. The proportions of suffering and the proportions of glory belong to separate conditions, natural and spiritual.

This frames the revelation of how things work in the spirit concerning the process of childbirth labor that will someday produce the ultimate but continues here and now to produce the restoration of purpose through the same process of shared spiritual experience.
Choosing Spiritual Children
Discipling leaders never separate people from purpose. So, recognizing your spiritual children God involves you in recognizing the spiritual revelation of individual destiny that fits into kingdom purpose.
Feed Passion, Test Submission

Apostolic and Prophetic Maturity
Without judgment, there’s no accountability.
Generations

Purpose is established in all that exists by Creation, and the generations are designed to allow the movement of Divine purpose through history. To understand the ancient meaning of the word, “generations,” we begin with the pictorial expressions of the letters. The first letter […]
Born to Lead
In answer to the question – “How does God choose leaders?” – we might review revelation fundamentals about God and how He does stuff. Our Biblical worldview should include the presuppositions of Creation, Redemption, and Restoration; for outside the context of Bible revelation, we usually fail to filter out humanism, animism, and occultism, creeping confusions […]
Mature Enough to Work in a Team?
Note the words of Holy Spirit concerning Paul included Barnabas; that is, note that God sent them together, building team ministry by Divine design. This wasn’t a mission board strategizing but God designing. In the maturing process, leaders develop the power and passion to do things as spiritual adolescents so they can prove they are […]

David shifted […]
