Praise Report

Hallelujah!

At the end of January the Lord gave me a word (which was published on this site, then disappeared with 2 others!?) that He was going to deliver the Christian missionary captives in Iraq. While originally there were 4 captives--one was shot, condolences to the grieving family--the other 3 were rescued today!! Amen and amen!! God is so-o-o good and true to His word.

Anyway, just wanted to send this out as I run off to the airport.
~Be blessed and be a blessing.

Rejoice Over the Repentant

Greetings in the Lord! It is good to be back in the saddle again and I have much to share from my trip to Iceland and Germany. However, having said that, I will write on the things I experienced and learned as the Lord directs for me to share, as any other way would be out of step with the daily words He provides for us to hear. Today's word comes from Deuteronomy 5:4-5: "The Lord spoke to you face to face out of the fire on the mountain. (At that time I stood between the Lord and you to declare to you the word of the Lord, because you were afraid of the fire and did not go up the mountain.)" How many people are afraid to hear from the Lord and draw close because of His "fire"? The Israelites were all too aware of their unworthiness and sin and asked Moses to be a mediator for them, a buffer, so that they stood aloof from the Lord while only Moses drew near. Such is the case with many individuals. They know of the Lord, even have experienced some special con...

The Lord Is Our King

Greetings in the Lord! Today's word comes from 1 Samuel 12:19-25: "The people all said to Samuel, "Pray to the Lord your God for your servants so that we will not die, for we have added to all our other sins the evil of asking for a king." "Do not be afraid," Samuel replied. "You have done all this evil; yet do not turn away from the Lord, but serve the Lord with all your heart. Do not turn away after useless idols. They can do you no good, nor can they rescue you, because they are useless. For the sake of His great name the Lord will not reject his people, because the Lord was pleased to make you His own. As for me, far be it from me that I should sin against the Lord by failing to pray for you. And I will teach you the way that is good and right. But be sure to fear the Lord and serve him faithfully with all your heart; consider what great things He has done for you. Yet if you persist in doing evil, both you and your king will be swept away....

Swing the Sickle, For the Harvest is Ripe

Greetings in the Lord! Well, there has been a lot of teaching among evangelical and prophetic circles in the American Church about the significance of the four blood moons coinciding with the Jewish festivals.  Historically, there have been major events involving Israel during this time (you can learn more by watching or reading what John Hagee and others are teaching on YouTube or in their books), but I will only share what the Lord has shown me. Around 1AM I saw the fullness of the lunar eclipse, the blood moon last night and marveled at its unique sight.  As I stood there looking at it, the familiar question came to my heart, "What does it mean?"  I really haven't studied it too much and every time I hear people teaching on it I am still left with that same question, unanswered in my pondering heart. I went back to bed and prayed, "What does it mean, Father?"  And He simply said, "Joel 3." So I ope...

Fallen Rock Stars

Greetings in the Lord! I'm a Generation X-er, which basically means I grew up with what is now called "Classic Rock." I remember when John Bonham of Led Zeppelin died, and of the whole occult heyday prevalent in rock music at that time, and afterwards.  I remember my brother saying, "Let's play this record backwards and see if we can hear messages," and we'd spin it around counter-clockwise to hear weird, unintelligible noise.  I recall leafing through the guitar and heavy metal magazines that my brother got and crinkling my nose at all the dark, occult images that many bands used to promote themselves.  He would tell me of all the bands that worshipped Satan publicly, onstage at times, and of how they lived their lives offstage--drinking, drugging, orgies and the like, usually rounded out the picture.  It never appealed to me, but I used to wonder, "Why would they follow the devil?  That is asking for trouble."  It nev...

Word for South Africa

Image
Greetings in the Lord!  It's been another long time since my last post--sorry about that!  This time I've been down in Cape Town, South Africa seeing what God is up to down there...amazing things!  First off, I just have to tell all of you that the whole Cape area is absolutely beautiful!  If you ever have the chance to go there let it be on your list of to-do's.  You can see God's handiwork everywhere--in the vibrant sea waters, the majestic rugged mountains, in the lush wine lands, and on the smiling faces of the new generation of people gracing the landscape.  Even the varied wildlife and marine animals found all around reflect His goodness and provision.  Praise God! But of course the most encouraging thing I saw was a maturing and Spirit-filled new generation of people.  Its been nearly 20 years since the end of apartheid and this new generation does not carry the scars of the form...

White Stone With a New Name

Greetings in the Lord! For the past couple of weeks, when I think of Donald Trump I immediately see a giant wall assembling in the spirit!  Yep, and the bricks are colored white and they represent people--American voters as they get behind him.  They are building a wall of defense, for our walls have been torn down, especially these past eight years. The wall is white, which stands for purity, truth, and goodness.  But there have been many things to tear down this wall--gay marriage, legalization of marijuana, open borders, and so on.  Enough is enough, already, and one by one, Americans are finding their voice, rising to their feet, gathering at the gate (in Biblical language) to contend for what is right and good and godly.  I'm not saying that the Donald is godly--but I do believe he is the Cyrus that the Lord in His mercy is giving us to get back on track, not prosperous, per say, but to fight the good fight and be champions of integrity in business, gov...

Fertile Soil Produces Amazing Harvest

Greetings in the Lord~ Today's word comes from Mark 4, especially verses 21-25: Then Jesus asked them, "Would anyone light a lamp and then put it under a basket or under a bed?  Of course not!  A lamp is placed on a stand, where the light will shine.  For everything that is hidden will eventually be brought into the open, and every secret will be brought to light.  Anyone with ears to hear should listen. Then he added, "Pay close attention to what you hear.  The closer you listen, the more understanding you will be given--and you will receive even more.  To those who listen to my teaching, more understanding will be given.  But for those who are not listening, even what little understanding they have will be taken away from them."   Since January, I have received several words about this pandemic time period we are in and interestingly, much of it had to do with the Lord uprooting and exposing corruption and spiritual realignment, in genera...
