Ponderables
This week, allow me to give three thoughts that I share in our Ignite the Supernatural Conferences. Though seemingly simple, meditation will show the vast depth of each thought. They aren't just flippant words. With the revelation will come a great manifestation of God's glory.Today is the day of the Holy Ghost. The Holy Ghost won't be real through me until He is real to me. If I make room for the Holy Ghost, He will make room for me. Pass these thoughts on to those working alongside of you in your ministry. I guarantee that you and your ministry will never ever be the same again.

In her 99 years here on earth ... well, you can see why one blog can't capture 99 years of stories. Years ago, I heard her make this statement, "My brain leaks." What Grandma Burns was saying was that she had seen so much, heard so much, and experienced so much that her brain had trouble remembering it all. Her memory was...
Dependent on the Holy Spirit #4 – Brain-Bypassing Prayer
Years ago while speaking at a conference, I jokingly told an audience, "I'm smarter than I look." From the back of the auditorium, I heard a retort, "You'd have to be." (I trust that they too were joking.) Sadly, contrary to what I said in the conference, for more times than not I am not smarter than I look. There are so many areas in life that I honestly am clueless. And, before you start looking for an institution to house me, if you are honest, you will make the same declaration about yourself. We all are so limited in our understanding in so many areas of life. It is so, so evident that...
