As we celebrate our nation’s birthday tomorrow (July 4), it is good to be reminded that God created America for His purposes. It is clear that the motivation of the early settlers included the furthering of the gospel of Jesus Christ. John Winthrop, an English lawyer and leading figure in the founding of the Massachusetts Bay Colony, led the first large wave of colonists from England in 1630, and served as governor for twelve of the colony’s first 20 years. On the voyage to America aboard the Ar

Many Americans are unaware of God’s intervention in saving our Republic through Roger Sherman and Benjamin Franklin. I am going to venture a guess that most of you know little, if anything, about Founding Father, Roger Sherman. His contribution to America’s beginning was extremely important. Sherman was distinguished as the only founding father to sign all four of America’s major founding documents: the Articles of Association (1774), the Declaration of Independence (1776), the Articles of Confe

On July 18 of last year (2024) my friend, Steven Springer, received a strong word from the Lord regarding Trump and America. Though this was almost a year ago it is just as relevant today. Steven said:

“We are in a tremendous turnaround season. There is grace in the atmosphere for the Ekklesia to contend in prayer all the way until the promises we have heard from Holy Spirit manifest!”

I took this to heart and have been doing so, as have many of you. Steven continued:

The Jesus People movement of the 1970s was not merely a fleeting trend or a cultural phenomenon; it was a sovereign move of God, a divine awakening that transformed the hearts of a generation and set the stage for the mighty outpouring of the Holy Spirit beginning today.

The 1960s and early 1970s were tumultuous times. The world was wrestling with war, social upheaval, and a deep sense of disillusionment. The counterculture movement, with its rebellion against authority and traditional values,

Holy Spirit gave our friend, Gina Gholston, a dream Monday morning regarding our prayers for protection from terrorist attacks. Here is a portion of the dream. (You can find the entire dream at the end of today’s post.)

“I dreamed I was sitting at an outdoor table, having dinner with some pastors and church leaders…As we were eating and talking, something came down from the sky, tightly gripped my shoulders, lifted me up, and began carrying me to another location. I wasn’t scared or startled

We are told that when God began creating in Genesis, the earth was formless (tohuw),(1) empty (bohuw),(2) and darkness covered the earth (Genesis 1:2). As well as formless, and empty, these two words have a broad range of meanings, including “desolation, desert, barren, confusion, and even chaos.”(3) 

How did God transform the chaos, confusion, barrenness, etc? With His words: “Then God said…” (verse 3). The word “said” is amar(4) in Hebrew, and can mean more than just “saying” or “announcing

As you no doubt know, Saturday night (the early morning hours of Sunday in Iran), the US conducted one of the most impressive military operations in the history of the world: Operation Midnight Hammer. In its largest B-2 operation/strike in history, America obliterated three of Iran’s nuclear development sites. The operation was extensive: 125 military aircraft, including fighter jets, refueling planes, Stealth B-2s, reconnaissance planes; naval vessels, including a submarine, and undoubtedly th
