GETTING BACK ON TRACK

  This afternoon I was looking at an old notebook from 1991. I always loved spending hours studying the Word of God and taking notes. Even as a young believer I understood the transforming power of the Word of God. I learned that Jesus was with God in the beginning when He created the world, and He has given us the same creative power in our words, therefore we could speak things into existence. We could speak to mountains to be cast into the sea and it will obey. I understood the covenant that Jesus established with us when He died on the cross, and I knew that healing is always Gods will for us.  Jesus gave us the same authority that He had when He walked the earth. He commissioned us in Matthew chapter 10 to heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, and cast out demons. He has already given us all things that pertain to life and godliness. When we begin to recognize what the Lords promises are for us, our lives will begin to transform and we will learn to w

A CHANGE OF GARMENTS

  2020 has been a year that will go down in history. Not one person went unscathed from some type of misfortune. There has been a lot of controversy in politics that affected the government, plagues that shut down the economy as businesses, churches, entertainment, arts, sports events and schools were all closed for a period of time. Airlines, social gatherings and family gatherings were limited to a certain number of people. Face masks were required in public and social distancing was enforced in most states. There were even arrests if people were too close in close proximity at social gatherings. It will also be know as a year of shenanigans and sabotage.   The only thing that wasn’t affected was the media which is communication through radio, television, newspapers and the internet. Through it all, God did not change His mind. He has a blueprint and a plan laid out for each one of our lives as well as our country as a whole. Jesus said to expect perilous times in th

GENERALS OF FAITH

  I want to share a dream that I had a couple of nights ago. Most of you are familiar with the ministry of the late Kenneth E Hagin. Kenneth received a miracle from the Lord after being paralyzed and bedridden in 1934 at the age of fifteen years old. The Lord raised him up from his deathbed and sent him out into the ministry. He founded the Kenneth E. Hagin Evangelistic Association in 1963 and then the RHEMA bible training college in 1974. He was also known as a “Word of Faith” preacher who believed in the power of our words. His teaching was not just in persuasive words but with demonstration of the Holy Spirit and his power with signs and wonders following. Kenneth had a ministry of miracles, signs and wonders and had a strong gift of discerning of spirits. He was able to see angels as well as demons. He had encounters with Jesus and he even saw heaven and hell. He received several prophetic words for the end times in which some may be relevant for today. When I firs

COME UP HIGHER

  Back in the 1990’s into the 2000’s I attended many meetings where believers would “soak” in the presence of God. Some people would lay on the floor, some would remain in their chairs but everyone was there for one reason. We were there for an inevitable, supernatural intervention of God. We were there to pull heaven down into our reality and have encounters with the living God. Ministers would worship on the instruments and the Holy Spirit showed up in a tangible way every time. In these meetings we were never in a hurry and just pressed in until the manifested presence of God filled the sanctuary. Many times it was difficult to even walk out of the building because the presence of God was so palpable. The gifts of the Holy Spirit were so prevalent with healings, prophetic words, words of knowledge and even miracles. In several of the conferences that I attended with friends we were so intoxicated in the anointing that when we went to lunch we were still caught up

DESPERATE FOR A TOUCH FROM GOD

Back in 1978 when I had my first bout with cancer, my friend’s sister told me about a priest named Father Diorio who had a miracle ministry. She invited me to a Catholic Charismatic church where this priest was having a meeting. Being raised Catholic I was never taught about the gifts of the Holy Spirit such as healing and miracles but but I knew that there was a supernatural realm so I was willing to go. The room was packed with people and an unusual presence permeated the atmosphere. I made my way to the front and pressed in as close as I could to the altar. I didn’t know what to expect but I watched him closely as he ministered. God could use anyone who is submitted to Him.   He began speaking about salvation, the love of Jesus, and how Jesus died for our sickness and sin. There was a young paraplegic man in his teens who began screaming from the back of the sanctuary. Father Diorio said “Bring the boy to me”. They laid him down on the altar and he placed his hands o
