HOW TO PRAY FOR POLICE OFFICERS

police-car-490677__180

This topic is so important that I’m not going to spend a lot of time prepping you.  I’m going to tell you what just happened, what Father told me, and then I’m going to pray for you.

I know you’re frustrated because these shootings keep happening.  It’s time to stop responding to evil the same way, again and again.  It’s not working.  It’s time to step into The Kingdom and do this Father’s way. Continue reading HOW TO PRAY FOR POLICE OFFICERS

SOMETIMES I’M IN A FUNK

in a funk

It’s true that sometimes I’m in a funk, but aside from all that negative connotation, here comes enlightenment.

We think we’re disgruntled, or discouraged, or disappointed. Maybe we’re depressed, or simply not eating right, or resting well. Sure. I get that.

But this time, all of the above were the result of unrealistic expectations, comparisons and possibly a tad bit of jealousy. Continue reading SOMETIMES I’M IN A FUNK

TEST THE SPIRITS part two

test the spirits part two

Can we test the spirits of people who’ve died?  I discovered its quite simple, but we are often held in unnecessary fear on this subject. I had quite a bit of it until Father pointed out that the fear was keeping me from experiencing Him without limits.  I often asked Him not to scare me and He showed me that asking this was based on fear.

Besides the fact that we have all kinds of scary ghost tales built into our cultures, I had my own peculiar version. Continue reading TEST THE SPIRITS part two

I’M DEFEATED? I’M FINISHED? I’M DONE?

defeated

It was tough to hear I was defeated, my chance was over, and all my opportunities were gone.

That was the message of a dream that woke me recently, and I wanted to share the story of overcoming it’s crippling effect because I’m sure you’ve felt it too. Continue reading I’M DEFEATED? I’M FINISHED? I’M DONE?

PRINCE VISITS IN HIS “PURPLE RAIN”

Prince's purple rain

 

For 3 days, Prince’s song “Purple Rain” dropped into my head and played. I was sorry that Prince left the earth, and I assumed this was my spirit remembering him.  But it occurred to me that he might be hovering in this dimension still.   So in curiosity I asked, “Prince, is that you? If it is, tell me why you died”? Immediately I heard, “Because I was stupid.  I didn’t know”. Continue reading PRINCE VISITS IN HIS “PURPLE RAIN”

HANDLING FRIENDLY MANIPULATION

without manipulation

You know the manipulation that draws you into Offence and then accuses you of having a problem with Offence?

Yep, we’ve all been there.  And to top it off some of us have had someone try to teach us how to do this, saying it’s biblical.  Their reasoning involves scriptures out of context and motive out of Spirit.

Well, hallelujah, we’re learning and we’re doing it quickly.  Holy Spirit is pouring Himself out all over the world and Manipulation is being exposed along with Offence and his brother Rejection.  Every one of those ugly guys rub against Holy Spirit within us and we feel the prickling sensation shiver down our arms.

IS CURIOSITY GOOD?

Curiosity into the fog

 

I was taught that Curiosity was a bad thing and that I should never play with it.  The teaching was backed up by plenty of scripture, but I sure couldn’t find anything to support it now.

This morning the snow falling on the cliffs in the distance curiously looked like fog as I drank my coffee and watched through the window.  I had woken with the question, “Father, why did the Pharisees chose to be Pharisees”? Continue reading IS CURIOSITY GOOD?

NEVER SAY “NO”

dont' say no

“Always agree. Never say “no” and don’t refuse anything he asks you.”

These were Father’s instructions to me for living with an alcoholic, and frankly I was appalled.  So I paced back and forth in my empty living room and rubbed the back of my neck while imagining various impossible requests.

“What if he asks me to do something illegal or immoral?  I can’t do that!”  I replied. Continue reading NEVER SAY “NO”

SMUGGLING SLAVES TO FREEDOM – dreams

emotions slaves

I was up at 3 a.m, again at 5 a.m, and then finally at 7:30 a.m. I got up.  It was a busy night of dreaming.

In the first dream, I was a black man working undercover, smuggling black slaves out of a work camp in Africa. I hid one man in a shop vac with his face covered while I used the vac until the truck arrived.  When it did, I quickly unlatched the lid and we both scrambled into the truck which sped off to freedom.

HOW TO CHECK THE FRUIT

checking fruitFather asked, “How do you check fruit?” and I pondered that.

For me, it’s a split second decision before the delicious gem lands on my tongue.  I don’t turn it over in my hands, or smell it carefully.  I guess I don’t really check it much at all.

Christians use the phrase “Check the fruit”.  It’s an antidote for doubt, or a way to reassure ourselves that God is involved in the Continue reading HOW TO CHECK THE FRUIT
