We are coming to trust the Lord for every breath we breathe. I don’t think we’ve ever approached a time more soberly and with such utter dependence upon Him. There’s a renewal and a refreshing coming from the Lord. As much as we loathe the battle, we know we have to get through it, and… Continue reading The turning point 1

Deliverance from futility 2
The Word of the Lord tells us we’re not to be weary in well doing, for in due season we shall reap if we faint not (Galatians 6:9); also the prophecies have been telling us very clearly that this is a time to press in. However, a spirit of futility comes against us. One of… Continue reading Deliverance from futility 2
Deliverance from futility 1
There was a time in which Elijah had been through the great contest on Mount Carmel and the prophets of Baal had been slain. He was weary. He was threatened by Jezebel. He ran into the wilderness, and under a juniper tree prayed that he would die. Then the angel of the Lord came and… Continue reading Deliverance from futility 1
The answer to futility
Have you noticed futility working on you? Would you like to have an answer for that to put you in a fighting stance for a change? First of all, you must understand that there is a spirit of futility, and that futility is upon the earth by divine intention. While the devil is usurping it… Continue reading The answer to futility
The turning point
We are at the turning point from the days of futility to the new day of the believer’s victory. We are coming to trust the Lord for every breath we breathe. It is a time of utter dependence upon Him. There is a renewal and a refreshing coming from the Lord. As much as we… Continue reading The turning point
Progenitors of a new age-2
I am coming into a new understanding of what the Kingdom will be and what hell will be, because I am beginning to comprehend the responsibility which God has laid upon man. God has given man a responsibility: either he can choose to be a recipient and a vehicle of the Kingdom of God and… Continue reading Progenitors of a new age-2
Progenitors of a new age
The great wealth of the believer is emphasized in the book of Ephesians; and in the last chapter, the warfare of the believer is emphasized in the battle against principalities and powers. Also, throughout those six chapters, there are seven references to the way we walk, instructing us in our walk. Two of those occur… Continue reading Progenitors of a new age
Refreshed and renewed
“But the things which God announced beforehand by the mouth of all the prophets, that His Christ should suffer, He has thus fulfilled. Repent therefore and return, that your sins may be wiped away, in order that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord; and that He may send Jesus, the… Continue reading Refreshed and renewed
The blessings of the kingdom dedication
Futility is the curse of uselessness which causes life to have no meaning. Man works and sweats all his life to reach a place where he has amassed money and possessions or a certain reputation and prominence that he wants in life, only to find that the whole thing is like ashes in his mouth;… Continue reading The blessings of the kingdom dedication
I needed that!
I once knew a child who had something wrong with the muscle of one eye. Sometimes he could focus both eyes just fine, but frequently one eye would wander off. When this happened, his father would say, “Son, fix your eye!” Then the boy would shake his head, and immediately his eye focused properly. Hebrews… Continue reading I needed that!
Faith over futility
The eleventh chapter of Hebrews is called the roll call of faith. It summarizes clearly the faith of many people throughout the history of the Scriptures. It sets forth a faith which believed God even in the days in which futility was imposed upon men. Men of God even refused deliverance that they might obtain… Continue reading Faith over futility
Magnify the Lord-Minimize what’s his name
In a walk with God you must never become devil conscious but always have your focus centered upon the Lord. If you focus on anything, let it be to obey the Word and magnify the Lord. Many religious groups become so aware of devils that they look for devils instead of the moving of the… Continue reading Magnify the Lord-Minimize what’s his name
One heart and a new spirit
God led the children of Israel out of Egypt to make them a people for His own possession. He desired to enter into a marriage covenant with them and spoke to them the commandments or terms of the covenant. When the people heard the voice of the Lord, they responded: “ ‘… if we hear the… Continue reading One heart and a new spirit
The focus that brings peace
When you prophesy against the circumstances that are the evidence of futility, you are effective to some extent; but the real place where futility is conquered is in your spirit. The victory over futility starts with the sons of God and goes forth from them. God has always spoken a word which is deceptive in… Continue reading The focus that brings peace
Have I got a plan for you!
The truths in some chapters in the Bible are especially precious because they explain the present dealings of the Lord upon us and certain experiences we undergo. They also give us a picture of the future which shows us what God is working out in us and what He intends to work out through us.… Continue reading Have I got a plan for you!
It’s is the time!
And there was war in heaven, Michael and his angels waging war with the dragon. And the dragon and his angels waged war, and they were not strong enough (let us establish that point firmly in our minds: they were not strong enough), and there was no longer a place found for them in heaven.… Continue reading It’s is the time!
Shout joyfully
The Lord is giving a key that His people need in this day. When the hands hang down and the knees are feeble, it is time for the Lord to bring His strength to His people. If there is an anointing resting upon us, it is an anointing that we should use to prevail over… Continue reading Shout joyfully
POWER OR AUTHORITY
In these days the subject of authority is always very important. Satan has emphasized power, and there was a time when power was an issue. Just before His ascension, Jesus told His disciples, “You shall receive power after the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you shall be witnesses unto Me” (Acts 1:8). There… Continue reading POWER OR AUTHORITY
THE MAGNIFICENT MEEK
Now it came about on one of those days, that He got into a boat, He and His disciples, and said to them, “Let us go over to the other side of the lake.” And they launched out. But as they were sailing along He fell asleep; and a fierce gale of wind descended upon… Continue reading THE MAGNIFICENT MEEK
Quicken the mortal
For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory that is to be revealed to us. For the anxious longing of the creation waits eagerly for the revealing of the sons of God. For the creation was subjected to futility, not of its own will,… Continue reading Quicken the mortal
The fruitful repentance
The book of Acts speaks about the restoration of all things, spoken of by the mouths of the prophets, who foresaw these days of restoration. Acts 3: 19Repent (The word repent speaks of the change that takes place in the mind, when we open our heart to the influence of the Spirit) ye therefore, and… Continue reading The fruitful repentance
The new motivation of Spirit
God is bringing us to a new drive and motivation in the Kingdom, and it is very important for you to understand exactly where you are in this process and what is going to happen next. At times a discouragement and a heaviness settles upon people, yet they are not discouraged. They worship the Lord… Continue reading The new motivation of Spirit
The kingdom proclaimed
In this day God is restoring authority and providing a way that the futility, which is on all creation, be loosed by the sons of God, who are coming into their redemption and authority. Although we realize what God is doing, we must also understand that the enemy will contest it bitterly, and that God… Continue reading The kingdom proclaimed
The Right hand
The Lord has been speaking about the manifestation of the sons of God and the release of all creation from futility. This spirit of futility is not only raging in your circumstances, but it is also raging against you individually. The people who have been marked to walk with God have been more harassed and… Continue reading The Right hand
Identical with Christ
The basis of the gospel is the fact that Christ was wounded for our transgressions and chastised for our iniquities, and by His stripes we are healed (Isaiah 53:5). This is the basis of our faith. We identify ourselves vicariously with Him in His experiences; we are aware that He wrought all on our behalf.… Continue reading Identical with Christ
From futility to maturity
The book of Ephesians has many good chapters, but the fourth chapter often becomes the focus of our attention. Let me give a brief resume of this chapter, starting from verse 8. Christ ascended to the right hand of the Father with all majesty and authority and gave gifts to men. He gave some as… Continue reading From futility to maturity
Complete
The eighth chapter of Romans teaches us that creation has been subjected to futility, but in hope, that when the sons of God come forth in their manifestation, they in turn will release creation from futility. The problem is not with creation; the problem is with the sons of God being loosed from futility. They… Continue reading Complete
