We were stymied in the prayer session and couldn’t seem to get clarity until suddenly someone heard the word ‘Saturn’. Breakthrough! Saturn is a big deal in the Bible. In Stephen’s message before he was stoned, he stated that the Israelites had embraced Moloch, the god who they brought out […]
I was really frustrated. Many years ago, while conducting a school in Georgia we had been working on a new prayer. One student had stayed up all night researching and praying about the new Prayer to Release the Treasures of Darkness. We had hit a wall, and I kept asking […]
So often we base what we believe on what we’ve heard others say without investigating for ourselves. For example, have you heard of familiar spirits? “Of course, you say! “These are spirits passed down the family line.” Well, actually that is not correct. The KJV version translates the Hebrew word […]
How often have you heard Isaiah 54:17, “No weapon formed against me will prosper?” quoted by someone who is experiencing difficulty? I have many times; often in the context of a church service when the entire congregation would agree with this proclamation from the pulpit. But, has your life proven […]

It was another boring-but-necessary day in the American Baptist Seminary of the West. The topic was the ‘image of God’ and the professor was confused. We entered into a futile discussion of what the image of God could actually be. Concordances were consulted, German theologians were consulted. No consensus. Decades […]
The Lord has a sense of humor! Donna and I were at the end of our Come Up Higher book tour in September 2011. We had arrived at Gillette, Wyoming where Donna settled into our motel while I drove to a ranch some distance from the city, way out in […]
We know the story – Elijah was taken up to heaven in a chariot of fire. Well, no; he saw a chariot of fire but was taken up in a whirlwind. (11 Kings 2:11). My discernment of the chariots of fire started in 2016 but it was in 2017 that […]
