Guys, I know I am weird… but I really don’t get how weird I am. Sometimes I overwhelm people with my strangeness. I don’t even try. I don’t know how it happens. It makes me sad that my quirk are things people have to “get used to”. :’(

Something unstoppable broke into the world as Jesus was baptized by John the Baptist. The heavens opened and the Spirit came upon Jesus. Those around Jesus, and John the Baptist himself, had no idea what this moment would birth. The opening up of Heaven and the anointing of the Spirit initiated a ministry that none had seen before. The Holy Spirit came upon Jesus and the Scriptures testify that he...

Last night I went to the Resting Place House of Prayer for the first time in quite awhile.
Over 2 years ago, I began going to the house of prayer and my life was changed. I had a lot of my limitations on the Holy Ghost stripped off and I began receiving the power of the Ghost like never before. Though this place revealed to me a whole lot about the presence of God, I stopped going due to growing...

Jesus is not a vending machine. You don’t just draw close to him for power in your ministry. You don’t draw close to him so you can pop out some miracles, healings, words of wisdom and knowldge, prophecies, etc. You don’t pay him with your words and time to have him dispense what you like. You come to him simply to come to him. You draw near to him because he is your sweet, good...

The Last Days Church by David Wilkerson
I believe God’s vision for His last-day church is based on His revealed Word-because the Bible clearly outlines what the church of Jesus Christ will be like just prior to His coming.
The church in America is far from what God envisioned it to be. For the most part, entire denominations today operate without the Holy Spirit. They are devoid of the presence of Jesus and bankrupt of all...

I am not a dispensationalist. I believe the Church is the fullness of Israel. I do not think ethnic Israel has any special significance in the last days. I am scared that as the Church is pushed into the tribulation, many believers will be distracted by their view of Israel’s role in the End Times. We will be focusing on protecting this nation instead of going forth in Kingdom work. At the...

Miscellaneous Spirit Notes
consecratedliving:
Being filled with the Spirit is a command, not a suggestion. (Ephesians 5:18)

Our gifts can be revealed to us through a prophetic message or word from God and are not to be neglected. (1 Timothy 4:14)
The Spirit in you is a river, not a lake. Let...
