In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth (Genesis 1:1).
The only way to have a Christian worldview is to abide in Christ so that we see with His eyes, hear with His ears, and understand with His heart. As we are told in Ephesians 4:15: “but speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in all aspects into Him who is the head, even Christ.” This is the daily resolve of a true disciple—to learn of their Master, becoming like Him and doing the works He did.
One of the most frequently asked questions I receive is whether I think Paul Cain’s public confession was real or not. It is understandable that many would question whether Paul’s repentance was genuine because of his previous denials. First, I personally question whether anyone has ever repented perfectly. I think there is only One that we can expect perfection from. I personally feel that Paul’s repentance was as genuine as he could make it at the time.
My warning about martial law coming to America has created many questions that deserve answers. I will address some of these here, as well as further clarifying what I am predicting, and what I am not predicting that some have assumed that I am. I will then address what is causing this crisis, and what we need to do to be prepared for it.

Nothing is more contagious than a person who is getting closer to God, and this is the greatest thing that we could ever do for our loved ones, drawing them to the ultimate human purpose—loving God and serving Him.
If we are going to be the best stewards that we can be to the Lord, another principle that we need to understand is the importance of our training, and how He trains us to be able to handle more authority and resources. Our training is the investment that God is making in us, and we want Him to get the maximum return for this investment. Remarkably, He lets us determine what kind of return He will get from us by our faith and obedience.
I was involved in another prophetic experience that I think has some great lessons. It happened when I was flying our ministry plane to Nashville with some of our musicians to do some recording. After taxing to the General Aviation ramp, a line girl directed us to a parking spot.
Our text for this week is Ephesians 2:17-19:
