Today we set our hearts and focus on the presence of the Lord and His NOW word that brings divine impartation that will enable us to flourish into a season of great fruitfulness for the glory of the Lord.
Basking in His presence and power, love takes hold more deeply, joy springs forth like a...
"I counsel you to buy from me gold refined in the fire, so you can become rich; and white clothes to wear, so you can cover your shameful nakedness; and salve to put on your eyes so you can see. Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will go in...
You, O Lord, You satisfy me in the morning with your lovingkindness, that I may sing for joy and be glad all of my days. (Psalm 90:14)
Let revelation of your work appear to your servant, O Lord, and your favor be upon me as you confirm for me the calling you have on my life. (Psalm 90:16,17)

What did the 120 in the upper room have after the falling of the Holy Spirit that they didn't have before?
Answer: Hunger For Souls
"Therefore go and make disciples of all nations..." - Matthew 28:19
All the people you are discipling at this time, their souls are in bondage -- otherwise...
To walk in overcoming victory we need a spiritual "brainwashing" to repent of "ungodly thinking." Our minds need to be thoroughly cleansed of the lies and filth of the world so we can put on the mind of Christ, learning to think as He thinks and to see as He sees. A cleansed and renewed mind...
By faith we seek God, and expect fulfillment of His promises according to our need. Do we want wisdom, meekness, patience, or any other grace? As the child by sucking the breast draws forth milk for its own nourishment, and thereby it grows in strength; so do we by the prayer of faith, suck...
We all have areas where we are in great need of the Lord of Breakthrough, but remember that before God broke through David's enemies, he returned to the stronghold and inquired of the Lord.
"And David enquired of the Lord....And David came to Baalperazim, and David smote them (the Philistines)...
As I open my mouth wide and sing for joy to God, my strength, He gives me abundant provision to satisfy my needs. (Psalm 81:1,10,16)
How lovely is your dwelling place, O Lord. My heart and flesh sing for joy as I long for your presence. (Psalm 84:1,2)
I am blessed because I know my strength is...
"Deep calleth unto deep at the noise of Thy waterspouts: all Thy waves and Thy billows are gone over me." - Psalm 42:7
"Deep calls." Our Lord is a seeking God who desires a satisfaction that can be found only in us – our worship and our times of fellowship with Him. We were created for this...
Luke 11:9 - “And so I tell you, keep on asking, and you will receive what you ask for. Keep on seeking, and you will find. Keep on knocking, and the door will be opened to you.”
Jesus tells us not to stop after we pray. Get up and look for what you asked for. You will find it if you seek it...
In this season, God is giving out new "out of the box" ways of doing things. Don't get set in "your" ways, but learn to embrace His ways. What does this really mean? It means not to think as the world thinks. Do not accept what the world calls normal. We need a fresh Gospel mentality that is...
Matthew 15:14 - "If the blind leads the blind, both will fall into a ditch."
When you start pursuing God's vision for your life, sometimes you have to change who your close friends are because you're not speaking the same language anymore.
Priority requires that there...
When things are going a different direction, we have to know that our identity is -- to fellowship with the Living God.
We were created to fellowship with Him; and that is to be so intimate, that wherever we are, we feel His breath, His hand, His pleasure. We feel the brush of angels' wings...
We must lie under the authority of every word of God, and we must continually affirm our oneness with Christ -- "walk in a manner worthy of the calling with which you have been called" (Ephesians 4:1)
We cannot honor God more than when we are "humbled at His feet to receive His word"...
The Lord wants to use us, because He said:
"Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you." - Luke 10:19
If Jesus wants to talk today, He's going to have to use your mouth. If He wants to rebuke a...
We received our spiritual faculties at the time of our salvation. It is our responsibility to develop these by spending quality time with the Lord, and by cultivating their use.
"He gives power to the faint; and to them that have no might He increases strength...But they that wait upon the...
"And he said to them, 'Go into all the world and preach the gospel to the whole creation....And these signs will accompany those who believe; in my name they will cast out demons...they will lay their hands on the sick and they will recover.' And they went forth and preached everywhere, while...
As I open my mouth wide and sing for joy to God, my strength, He gives me abundant provision to satisfy my needs. (Psalm 81:1,10,16)
How lovely is your dwelling place, O Lord. My heart and flesh sing for joy as I long for your presence. (Psalm 84:1,2)

Be aware that the enemy would come with distraction after distraction only to rob you, and deposit within you despondency and numbness putting you in a sense of shock and longing -- not know which way to go -- to the left or to the right.
In times of trouble, call in His presence, for where you...
We must count it our blessedness and highest dignity to be in covenant with God -- esteem this as our greatest honor, that God is our God. If when we are persecuted, imprisoned, distressed, we can say with Jacob, "I have enough, because the Lord has mercy on me, and has taken me into covenant...
