The greatest Christian who will ever live will be the one who loves God the most. This is why the greatest souls to ever walk the earth are those who lived a life of pursuing God, seeking to do His will. This is because doing God’s will is proof of the true love of God, not merely a whim of human...

I am writing to those who I think will be among the greatest Christians to ever live—those who have lived in the last days of this age. As the Lord said, “the last shall be first” (see Mark 9:35), He has again saved His best wine for last—for those who live at the end of this age will be the best...

Each New Year we usually say “Good-bye!” to the previous year with a “Good riddance!” Every year has its challenges, but after a few more years go by, we tend to remember only the good things. One thing we can surely rejoice in is that the Lord chooses to forget all of our confessed sin and only...

Last year I received a word that we were in the Valley of Decision, and that those who were not maturing in Christ and daily seeking Him would begin to backslide and turn away from Him. We must be intentional about our spiritual maturity, or it won’t happen. Even biology teaches us that when we...

We continue this week with just a few more Scriptures where the Lord gave a definition of what His disciples would be and do. “ By this My Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; so you will be My disciples” (John 15:8 NKJV). Not only do disciples bear fruit, but they bear “much fruit.”...

In the New Testament, there are several progressions toward maturity in Christ. Though it is not stated specifically as such, the most basic would be: 1) Converts 2) Disciples 3) Servants 4) Friends 5) Sons The Great Commission is to make disciples, not merely converts. With the evangelists’...

We continue this week with just a few more Scriptures where the Lord gave a definition of what His disciples would be and do. “ By this My Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; so you will be My disciples” (John 15:8 NKJV). Not only do disciples bear fruit, but they bear “much fruit.”...

Jesus was crucified between two thieves—yesterday and tomorrow. One of these was in bondage to his past—things he had done. The other was in bondage to the future—asking Jesus to remember Him when He came into His kingdom. While on the cross, Jesus honored the second thief’s amazing faith but...

I am still processing all that came out in our recent Harvest Summit. At the same time, I have been shown things about our upcoming New Year's Convocation, which I don’t think has ever happened this early before. 2015 may well be the most remarkable year in our history, and we must be prepared for...
