Yesterday I was talking to Dr. R.T. Kendall, the author of a number of modern classics such as: God Meant It for Good, Believing God, and Total Forgiveness. Dr. Kendall had a dream a few nights ago in which President-elect Obama wanted to get close to him because of his knowledge of the Scriptures...

We are going to spend the next few weeks examining the lessons from the recent elections because we probably will not get a greater illumination of the times than this for a long time. The elections were an indication about the present state of the nation. We must understand how, but first we need...

This is the day that the Lord has made—so don’t mess it up! Really, we can mess it up or enjoy it. We can dwell in the presence of the Lord today if we choose. All we have to do is comply with the simple, easy, exhortation of Psalm 100: Shout joyfully to the LORD, all the earth. Serve the LORD with...

What exciting times we live in! The kingdom of God is closer today than it was yesterday. The kingdom of God is coming regardless of who is elected, in any election. The kingdom of God is going to come and the Lord’s will is going to be done, right here on earth as it is in heaven, period. This...

This week I need to make a departure from our subject on Mobilizing the Army of God. There is much more to be said about that, and I hope to get back to it later.

The trumpet was the instrument that gathered. In the Book of Revelation, we have trumpets that represent the major...

When we first began hosting conferences, it was relatively rare in the church. Now many groups and churches host them. I think this is great, and I am for anything that draws Christians from different streams and promotes interchange in the church. We began hosting conferences because we were given...

I am often asked if Christians should attend conferences, revivals, or renewals when they break out to be a part of the present moves of God. The answer is “yes” and “no.” If you wanted to be a part of what God did on the Day of Pentecost, you had to be in Jerusalem at the right time. The Lord had...

Last week we discussed the extraordinary anointing to mobilize that manifested so quickly on Governor Sarah Palin. Instantly it seemed that she went from being the obscure Governor of Alaska to one of the most interesting people in the world. The interest in her was not all favorable of course, but...

Since the theme for the Word for the Week is mobilizing, and we have many current examples of how this works, I would like to examine one in particular because of its obvious and powerful lessons—that is how the Republican Party mobilized when Governor Sarah Palin was chosen as John McCain’s...
