We have been addressing the manifest presence of the Lord, and its relationship to koinonia fellowship. We will now cover some of the basics that enable this, and that can inhibit or rob us of this basic and crucial part of our inheritance in Christ. We will begin with the mentality of fallen man,...

As I have shared, I have had many prophetic experiences in the heavenly realm. I have met with the Lord face to face several times, but I don’t think there is anything in the Lord or in this life that we can experience like His manifest presence. In almost all my prophetic experiences I was alone,...

The Book of Revelation reveals a harlot church that marries the spirit of the world instead of waiting for Christ as a pure, chaste virgin. As we see in Revelation 18:4-5, a voice will come from heaven, saying, "Come out of her, My people, so that you will not participate in her sins and receive of...

We were not created to navigate through this life alone. We can learn to endure it, and even prefer it, but we can never...

“The path of the righteous is like the light of dawn that shines brighter and brighter until the full day. “The way of the wicked is like darkness; they do not know over what they stumble” (Proverbs 4:18-19). There are more biblical prophecies about the end of this age than any other subject in...

The greatest promises in Scripture are: “If we seek God, we will find Him,” and “If we draw near to Him, He will draw near to us.” What could possibly be more valuable in life than the nearness of God? Or, as one of my friends used to say, “One moment of the favor of God is worth a lifetime of...
