In a global event that eclipses the hype of Y2K, doomsday preppers all over the world are readying for the end of time. As born-again, blood-bought, Bible-believing, and, yes, tongue-talking Christians, we, of course, know better than to buy into the Mayan calendar...

Even people who don’t typically pray are praying in the wake of what has now officially become the deadliest school shooting in U.S. history. That’s the right response to the senseless killing of 20 children and eight adults, but it’s time to take...

This is coming to you from a man who has just passed through the valley of the shadow of death. Since my close call with eternity just a short while ago … everything has become clearer. I can hear His whisper. Unabated obedience has become my mandate. That is...

It seems not a day goes by when the Freedom From Religion Foundation or some other atheist group isn’t attacking one of our Christian prayer meetings, trying to take down a nativity scene or attacking some other form of Christian expression. I have one question...

Lee Grady penned a no-nonsense article last week cleverly titled “10 Stupid Things Ministers Should Never Do.” The ministry of Dr. Mary Ann Brown left an impression on Lee, and in his article he recalled some of her sage advice, which was: “Lee,...

The Harvard College Munch, a student club that advocates safe practices for kinky sex, is nothing new. But its official recognition by the 376-year-old university is. Consider the self-stated purpose of the immoral group: “to promote a positive and accurate...

I started smoking marijuana when I was 15 years old—and it didn’t take long for this gateway drug to open the door to many other immoral behaviors. Smoking weed opened the door to under-aged drinking. We had fake IDs and a good friend at the local liquor...

Imagine if the New York Post existed in Bible days. And imagine if the cover photo showed the man Jesus described in Luke 10—a man who was attacked by robbers, stripped of his clothes, beaten down and half dead. Now imagine the uproar if that same image showed...

When you cast out devils by the finger of God, then the kingdom of God has come to you (Luke 11:20). But what comes next isn’t always as much fun. There is often natural and spiritual retaliation for setting the captives free. Although no weapon formed against a...

Just because you don’t agree with a ministry’s doctrine doesn’t make that ministry a cult. In eternity, I imagine we’ll discover no single denomination or ministry had the interpretation of every jot and tittle 100 percent accurate 100 percent...

Jesus promises authority over nations to those who conquer Jezebel—and judgment to those who follow Jezebel’s false doctrine. Beyond the little skirmishes, I've had two extremely intense battles with the Jezebel spirit over the years. When I say...

Just the day before I was (barely) sitting up talking to a friend, trying to swallow semi-solid food after catching some violent virus my daughter brought home from the mission field. This was less than a week after discovering news so devastating I had no choice but...

I used to have such thin skin you could see my heart through my chest, or at least on my sleeve. I’ve had to learn to toughen up over the years, especially in the face of a constant barrage of verbal attacks from religious spirits who sometimes don’t like...

Forgetting those things which are behind so you can reach forward to those things which are ahead (Phil. 3:13) can bring gut-wrenching pain to your soul. I know that pain all too well as I have experienced it a number of times. To describe the process as difficult...

In my editorial role at Charisma magazine I come across all kinds. There are many among the nameless, faceless generation who walk in a level of humility and honor that I aspire to. Then there are apostolic abusers and prophetic prima donnas, divas and all-out...

I had never stepped into a church like it before. The worship ushered in the presence of God in a way I had never experienced. And I knew I was home. Within seconds, the Holy Spirit told me it was a “safe place for this season.” I rejoiced in knowing it...

At first, I thought it was New Age culture. But I was wrong. It was occultism. As I strolled through the streets of Key West on a 24-hour getaway with my daughter, I noticed something that I had never witnessed in Key West before: occultism seems fully woven through...

Exhaustion; that’s the best word to describe how I’ve felt for the past two weeks. And there is no natural reason for it. I’ve been sleeping plenty. Drinking lots of water. Getting plenty of exercise. (Enjoying more than my quota of Starbucks!) Yet...

Every time I step out to do something God has called me to do I get smacked upside the head with naysayers and nasty name-callers. The same thing probably happens to you. So what are we going to do about it? I'll admit it. I've wasted far too much time worry...

In Prayer School tonight I am going to be sharing about how to discern a prayer burden. This is an important topic because even mature intercessors can fall into the trap called self, miss the call to pray, and suffer in their own souls. I speak from experience....

Then said Elijah unto the people, I, even I only, remain a prophet of the Lord; but Baal’s prophets are four hundred and fifty men. – 1 Kings 18:22 It took Elijah some weeks to get back on track after his run in with Jezebel. He journeyed down into the...

If the Prophet Isaiah were with us today, he might repeat a declaration from the 43rd chapter of the prophetic book he penned. Since he’s among the great cloud of witnesses, I’ll make this Spirit-led declaration instead. Behold, the Lord is doing a new thing! We need...
