Ready for the GREATER Works?
Just a quick thought to meditate upon — if Jesus did absolutely NO ministry before being filled with the Holy Spirit, why would you and I dare to do God’s work without first following His example? The scriptures tell us that Jesus declared that He did NO ministry on His own (John 5:19), received His guidance from the Holy Spirit (Luke 4:1), and knew the Source of His anointing to minister (Luke 4:18-19). Without a doubt, being filled with God’s Spirit was the launching pad for Jesus’ supernatural ministry. With that in mind, it is easy to see why Jesus, just before His ascension, commanded...
This is PACKED with Free Gifts
I know that this might sound egotistical and self-serving. Still, the truth is that every church needs to hear the messages and teachings offered in our Holy Spirit Rallies, Ignite & Unite Conferences, and Jesus the Healer Rallies. I know that I know that the Holy Spirit is desirous to show His presence and power to this generation in every church, ministry, and individual. Alongside His desire, there is a hunger today in our churches to once again allow Him to be unrestrained and vocal in their gatherings. There is an awakening in children, youth, and adults of the declaration that I...
Only Believe
Here’s a simple truth to ponder for the next few days. I’ll be up front and tell you that this thought didn’t originate with me. Its source is Jesus. Here’s the truth — “These signs will follow those who believe ….” I don’t even need to complete the thought. You’ve read it countless times and can possibly even recite it from memory. For those looking for this thought, it is found in Mark 16:17-18. Consider this — If it is still the day of believers (and evidently it is if you profess to be born again), according to Mark 16 it must still be the day of signs and wonders to operate in and...
It’s Happy Hour – The Holy Ghost Is Here!
Have you ever wondered why many church services resemble a seemingly endless funeral service? I’m talking about church services that are cold, lifeless, boring, emotionless, powerless, predictable, … Need I go on? You know exactly what I am talking about because you’ve endured those services. I’m talking about services that have become so formalized and formulaic that their very life has disappeared. And, secondly, have you ever wondered why so many Jesus-loving believers walk through life with a grimacing look plastered across their faces? It's painful to be around them! As I write this...
A Personal Holy Spirit
Perhaps you know this about me — I love, love, love to eat a good, juicy hamburger. In fact, I've concluded that any day of the week whose name ends with the letter "y" is an excellent day for a hamburger — e.g., Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday... Recently, Vickie and I ate lunch at a local restaurant that specializes in hamburgers. The word "specializes" might be a vast understatement. It's crazy to believe that this restaurant has fifty different types of hamburgers on its menu. Their list of burgers includes the Meatloaf (the burger is stuffed with diced green peppers, raw onions, and...
