But thanks be to God, who in Christ always leads us in triumphal procession, and through us spreads the fragrance of the knowledge of him everywhere. For we are the aroma of Christ to God among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing, to one a fragrance from death to death, to the other a fragrance from life to life. Who is sufficient for these things? 2 Corinthians 2:14-16 ESV There was a time when my…
What would be your first reaction to hearing a teaching centered around a couple of verses in Scripture allegedly showing how Jesus time traveled, and we could access the eternal realm as well with the aid of time traveling angels? No, my blog has not been hacked by a New Age teacher, and I have not binge watched Back to the Future or Quantum Leap. To my dismay, there are actual teachings out there telling professing believers they can time…
Several days ago, I came across a few things piquing interest, agreement, disagreement, sadness, and hope. It all circled back to the recent United States Supreme Court decision to overturn Roe v Wade and Planned Parenthood v Casey. The first was a social media post from Don Green stating in part, “Christians everywhere should understand that the change in the law did not produce a single change in a human heart. The parents and abortion doctors who practiced abortion last…
A small group of individuals stood outside an enclosed cemetery praying. A young man had brought this group to the memorial garden to visit a specific grave and to receive an impartation. While they stood before the locked door to the burial site, the man held up a golden key said to hold an amazing prophetic account in unlocking passage to a deceased mighty woman of God. The resting place of interest was the burial site of Kathryn Kuhlman. The…
Trips to heaven. Personal home visits from God. Angelic visitations. Intimate conversations with Jesus. If you have ever heard a well-known man or woman regaling of past times where Jesus walked into their living room or where they were taken on trips to heaven with secret divine revelation personally given to him/her, you may have been left wondering, “Why doesn’t Jesus come to my house and meet with me? Why don’t I hear God’s voice for myself like these people?…
Recently, I saw some social media posts mentioning Pentecost Sunday and the significance of the outpouring of the Holy Spirit so that the church could receive private prayer languages. The very passage referenced when mentioning Pentecost and this miraculous event was Acts 2, “When the day of Pentecost arrived, they were all together in one place. And suddenly there came from heaven a sound like a mighty rushing wind, and it filled the entire house where they were sitting. And…
In February of this year, Bible Gateway, an online Bible platform, announced their decision to remove The Passion Translation (TPT) from its selection of English Bible translations and versions. Reactions to the news were mixed, ranging from praise and thankfulness to disappointment and even outrage, claiming an attack of the enemy against God’s anointed and the move of God. Brian Simmons, the lead translator of TPT, expressed his own feelings regarding the decision by posting online, stating that “cancel culture…
How long, O Lord? Will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me? How long must I take counsel in my soul and have sorrow in my heart all the day? But I have trusted in your steadfast love; my heart shall rejoice in your salvation. I will sing to the LORD, because he has dealt bountifully with me. Psalm 13:1-2,5-6 ESV When David wrote this psalm to the Lord, he was in despair and…
For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well. My frame was not hidden from you, when I was being made in secret, intricately woven in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw my unformed substance; in your book were written, every one of them, the days that were formed for me, when as…
I recently saw a social media reel where a self-professing prophet was describing a vision, and in this vision the Lord spoke to her about ascending spiritually and being cleansed from the past. She went on to share details of Jesus washing her feet as well as her hair while He ran His fingers through her hair. She encouraged others with this vision and shared some seemingly encouraging words for others in their walk with the Lord. Now, some reading…
