Laugh Your Way into Revival
Let me share with you one of the number one ingredients to seeing a move of God in your life and ministry. It's summarized in just one word ... laugh. That's right. I'm not talking about a hee-hee, ha-ha snicker. I'm talking about having a good old-fashion, belly-wrenching, boisterous time of laughing and laughing some more until the tears of joy are running down your cheeks and you can barely breathe. Here's why this is important. Without reservation, I can guarantee that you've carefully and thoroughly looked at the way things are week after week after week. You've listened to the enemy...

2016 Jacobs
Can you believe that 2015 is just days away from being history? What happened to the year? I'm thankful for this past year and God's leadership, guidance, and provision. He literally outdid Himself for us. But, 2015 is coming to a close and I have already set my eyes on the upcoming 2016. I have purposed in this upcoming year to have the resolve and tenacity of Jacob. You'll recall that it was Jacob who literally grabbed ahold of the messenger of the Lord and declared, "I will not let you go until ..." (Genesis 32:26) For Jacob, he was unrelentingly holding onto the Lord waiting for a...
An Outlet Store Holy Spirit?
Here's an experience that I'm sure that we can all identify with. While shopping at an outlet mall store, you discover an item that you have previously seen and considered buying at either a department store like Macy's or Dillard's or at a home improvement store like Home Depot or Lowe's. From all appearances, the items are identical. Even the packaging appears to be identical. It's a no-brainer. Of course you'll snatch up the item at the outlet mall. After all, who doesn't love to save money! Here's the hazard of outlet mall shopping. Often, the items sold are seemingly identical in...
Heaven’s Downloads & Updates
For those with an iPhone, you are readily aware that app updates are a way of life. I'm sure that you'll agree that it's a rare day that the iPhone's App Store doesn't show that one or more of the apps have updates ready to download. These constant updates are available for three possible reasons ... first, to remedy critical issues such as an app locking up or having compatibility problems, second, to tweak its functionality so that it can run smoother, and third, to give the app a fresh, new look. The app creators recognize the value of these continual downloads to bring the programs...
