What If God Let You Know What He Knows? We don’t know what we don’t know, but have you ever thought about what it’s like to be God, who does? To know everything! Something occurred to me as I bantered with my friend Paul on Sunday. Open your bible app to 2 Kings 6:15-17 in the ESV. There’s… Read More »
And Why It Will Bring the Best Out in You My last post was about the dark side of the moon, the other side. In the last few days the astronauts have been floating around the press calls, amazing pictures have dropped and now we wait for the film! Until then, have you considered that there is actually… Read More »
I’m not sure that we have fully understood the immense value of the God-given ability to speak in other tongues that has been bestowed graciously on the Spirit-filled believer in these days. In fact, I don’t believe that we have ever as the Church, fully grasped the overwhelming benefit and purpose of God-given ability to speak in tongues.… Read More »
It is a long time since the Church encountered an individual with fiery, burning vision like Wesley, Whitfield, Knox and Edwards. The radical and passionate cry of John Hyde “O God! Give me souls or I die” has long since been registered as one of the ‘brave-heart’ cry of leaders from another century, another time. Significantly, the Pentecostal revival… Read More »
God still uses people with bad character. Character is our commitment to doing the right thing regardless of the personal cost. It’s been said that character is defined by what you do when you think no one is watching.

The Bible tells us about some extraordinary acts of faith and obedience exhibited in the lives of ordinary people in the face of adversity, hardship and persecution. It also tells stories of the encounters of prophets that many in modern society have sought to emulate, but very few have actually experienced, despite their claims. There is something strangely… Read More »
I can only think of two people that I have met in the last 34 years who wouldn’t say a hearty, “Yes!” to the question of having an increase in the anointing on their life and ministry. Who wouldn’t say yes to such an increase? What would you say – especially in this day and age? Interestingly, both… Read More »
I found it interesting that when I looked up the subject of interpretation of tongues on the internet, that most of the explanations come bouncing off of the screen with a fair degree of legalism. It has to be said that rules and regulations grip the heart of many, even those who are moving in the gifts of… Read More »
There is a chance that Flavius Josephus, the Jewish historian may be wrong when he states that between the time of Malachi and the birth of Christ that there was 400 years of prophetic silence. Between the canonical prophet, Malachi and the birth of Christ there was a long period of silence, but It is important for us… Read More »
Prophets, artists and musicians all have one thing in common – they need inspiration to work at their best. Anyone can function to some degree without inspiration, but the results are lackluster, dull and unimaginative, and lack the ability to inspire others. Being pedantic, prophets are not attempting a performance, and so being ‘at their best’ is perhaps not… Read More »
