I mentioned in yesterday’s post that I was in Washington, D.C. for some on-site prayer; I’m still there today. Last night I spoke at a prayer banquet regarding the Supreme Court, then participated in a private prayer endeavor with a few other individuals. This private prayer time was actually linked to the assignment Ken Malone, my brother, Tim, and I carried out in February of 2016. I spoke of this 2016 prayer excursion in a post a couple of weeks back (link). It was on this trip that God began

A despot is a king or other ruler with absolute, unlimited power. Despotism, then, is absolute power or control, or tyranny. With these definitions in mind, consider the following statement from Thomas Jefferson, who said on September 28, 1820, in a letter to Diplomat William Jarvis:

“You seem…to consider the judges as the ultimate arbiters of all constitutional questions; a very dangerous doctrine indeed, and one which would place us under the DESPOTISM of an oligarchy…

The Bible speaks of “watching” in prayer. “Watchmen intercession” is one of the most vital aspects of prayer; I am often asked to teach on it. Our calling and responsibility as intercessors includes being alert for and praying against satan’s schemes and plans, as Holy Spirit reveals them to us. Ephesians 6:18 says, “With all prayer and petition pray at all times in the Spirit, and with this in view, be on the alert with all perseverance and petition for all the saints.” The King James version u

There is absolutely no doubt that we are in the beginnings of revival in America, an outpouring of such proportions that it will be considered another Great Awakening. Many efforts have contributed to this: much prayer, worship gatherings, repentance, forgiveness, reconciliation, and more. Small acts of obedience have been essential; grassroots efforts that are often unseen by the masses combine in the spirit realm to become great waves of anointing and momentum. Occasionally, however, the Lord

Like many people, we have a nice upright steamer that we use to touch up our clothing (Ceci no longer likes to use the ironing board). I recall several years ago, I turned on the steamer and was waiting for it to heat up. I became distracted by something in another room and walked away for “a few seconds.” Whatever had distracted me then completely captured my attention, and I forgot about the steamer; the seconds turned into an hour or so. 

When I remembered turning on the steamer, I ran to

Another church was viciously attacked over the weekend, a Mormon church in Grand Blanc Township, Michigan. On Sunday, at least four people were killed and eight others wounded in the shooting attack, then the shooter set the church ablaze, with many people inside. At the time of this writing, it was feared they may find more casualties in the rubble of the burned building. 

Spirits of violence, hatred, and murder have been unleashed in our nation. This has been happening for some time, but no

After Charlie Kirk’s memorial service, those who use fear-mongering against patriotic Christians, calling us “Christian nationalists,” predictably amped up their rhetoric. The tired arguments and ludicrous accusations that we want to force Christianity and biblical ideals on everyone ratcheted up again. You know you are losing the battle when all you have left are lies and slander.
Sadly, even many pastors have bought into the lie that churches should avoid all cultural issues. Many of them refu

Back in 2021, my friend, Clay Nash, had a significant dream about America, which included a plumb bob, also known as a plummet. In the dream, I was holding a 5-sided, hollow, silver plumb bob over a map of America. Each of the five sides included a section of clear glass-like windows. It was filled with red liquid. As I held it over the U.S. map, a fine flow of this red liquid began to flow from the point of the plumb bomb. I stated, “This is blood from the Mercy Seat.”

There was more to the

There are many opportunities before the church of Jesus Christ that can be accomplished if we will pray and take action. While none of us fully understands all Holy Spirit is doing, we can be confident that His plans ultimately reveal Jesus. 

In the midst of verbal chaos, conflicting voices, and waves of sorrow, divine possibilities are emerging. Though evil has struck, God has a way of turning even the darkest moments into opportunities for His glory. 

For several months, the Lord has kept me focused on and speaking about the importance of understanding His timing. I feel the reason for this is that we have crossed a threshold into an appointed time on God’s timeline.

Timing is a key component of our journey with the Lord, very important to God and, therefore, to us. We see this all through Scripture. He operates according to the timeline and plan He has established. He knows the plans He has woven over us (Jeremiah 29:11), and He will fulfil
