“And lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted above measure. For this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from me. And he said… Continue reading Paul’s Thorn in the Flesh

An ambassador is a diplomatic official of the highest rank, appointed and qualified as a representative in residence by one government to another. Philippians 3:20 says for our citizenship is in heaven. We are ambassadors of heaven on earth. So our citizenship is not of earth, we are citizens of heaven. We are connected to… Continue reading ARE YOU AN AMBASSADOR?

Sometimes walking with God and believing for the fulfillment of His promises is like walking down a long corridor and seeing thousands of doors. The Lord has set them before us, and we keep trying them; but too many of the doors are locked. Sometimes we face problems that we do not know how to… Continue reading Keys for locked doors

Keep thy foot when thou goest to the house of God; for to draw nigh to hear is better than to give the sacrifice of fools: for they know not that they do evil. Be not rash with thy mouth, and let not thy heart be hasty to utter anything before God; for God is… Continue reading Let thy words be few

Luke 6:26–38. “Woe to you when all men speak well of you, for in the same way their fathers used to treat the false prophets. But I say to you who hear, love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you. Whoever hits… Continue reading Enriching ourselves

We have a new approach to evangelism in this restoration. The old-order altar call and emphasis does not seem to have the anointing that God used to give it. God also does not give the same anointing to preach much about the baptism of the Holy Spirit. Instead, He simply leads to lay hands on… Continue reading Tell them the king reigns

I suffer hardship even to imprisonment as a criminal, but the word of God is not imprisoned. II Timothy 2:9. I Peter and II Timothy were written during the time of the emperor Nero and his persecutions of the Jewish Christians as well as the Gentile Christians. That was about thirty years after the crucifixion… Continue reading Now it’s our turn

The elementary foundation of this Walk is no longer emphasized; we are building upon it. The hour has come to reach the world, but the world cannot be reached until certain principles have been wrought within us properly. If the seed of failure and weakness is within us, in moments of testing we will fail.… Continue reading The members of the body of Christ-how they react and how they relate 1

The book of Romans is a beautiful book because it deals so much with the basic theme of righteousness. As we live in this world, nothing becomes more intriguing than God’s provision of righteousness for us. It is an impartation and an imputing of righteousness to us, until we literally become the righteousness of God.… Continue reading Sensitivity: the sin against the body

The deep underlying current of truth that flows in the twelfth chapter of I Corinthians can be described by one word, varieties. Once we get the idea of varieties in our minds we can begin to grasp what God is doing in this Walk. Unless we have a real understanding of that chapter we do… Continue reading Varieties-in gifts, in members, in ministries

As I was meditating in the book of Acts the tenth chapter, I was thinking about Cornelius, and about the faith that is in the hearts of the people who meet God. And it came to me, “There is an answer for us in this area of bringing people into the Lord.” I know that… Continue reading A right heart often precedes a right head

One Scripture which will stand by you and help you never to make a mistake in following the Lord is I Peter 4:10, 11. As every man hath received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God. If any man speak, let him speak… Continue reading The vessel God chooses and uses

I want to talk to you about the release of the apostle. I wish I could see how many different reactions there are in people’s minds to that statement because that is a common phrase that we hear: the apostle’s release—the apostolic ministry being released. I have come to learn that it means many different… Continue reading The release of an Apostle

We get the idea that Titus was a young man (Paul called him his son in the faith), but he wasn’t like Timothy. Titus was a man who could be put in a place and before long something was growing, yet you couldn’t point to what has caused it. He didn’t have any flare you… Continue reading No generation gap here

I’ve developed a certain confidence that every time I speak or write, God will give a word—and He does. I don’t want to be without that faith. Many ministries who have come up just so far and then failed, I doubt if any one of them ever felt that their work was done and perhaps… Continue reading The Lord is preparing me for things to come

But ye shall receive power, when the Holy Spirit is come upon you: and ye shall be my witnesses both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth. Acts 1:8. Ye shall receive “power” (from the Greek word “dunamis”). Dynamic, dynamite, and dynamo are English words which… Continue reading Dynamic deacons

But ye shall receive power, when the Holy Spirit is come upon you: and ye shall be my witnesses both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth. Acts 1:8. Ye shall receive “power” (from the Greek word “dunamis”). Dynamic, dynamite, and dynamo are English words which… Continue reading Dynamic deacons

We have come to the realization that in studying under the Living Word, you can receive more in a short time, than from two or three years in Bible college, in which you will receive a mixture of the true and false, or if they are sound, you are not going to get the meat… Continue reading The training of a minister

Another age is coming, the age of spirit. The age we have been in was an age of soul. It was a labor to be in the soulish age; the heavens above us were like brass. In the spirit age, the heavens hold us up in that realm. There’s a big difference. The soulish age… Continue reading The basis of self-ministry

If you think you got problems, let us take a look at the life of the Apostle Paul. In this writing he is defending his Apostleship to the Corinthian church. We are reading from the Kenneth S West- New Testament expanded translation. 2 Corinthians 11:22 Hebrews are they? I also. Israelites are they? I also.… Continue reading A thorn in the flesh

Father, thank You that, as heirs of your kingdom, You have given us the right to present ourselves before You  You have made us kings and priests and have given us the ability to operate the judicial process of heaven.   Today, by faith, in the name of Jesus, I enter into Your realm. Father, I… Continue reading So, tell me about freedom

We all pass through situations where it is difficult to think straight, situations which seem like catastrophes to us. And then we awaken to the fact that we have passed through something which was not as devastating and total as we supposed it would be; we find that it was the open door of destiny… Continue reading Witnesses

Sometimes people react because of pressures and circumstances that are almost unbelievable. A person ought always to be slow to condemn someone else. What is the old Indian saying? “Never judge another man until you walk in his moccasins for a week.” When Ezekiel was caught away in the Spirit, he had great criticisms. He… Continue reading Sitting where they sit

The goal and objective of every believer should be to speak words that are alive and filled with the anointing and presence of God Himself. The Spirit of God should be released through the words we speak. When our spirit is in contact with the Holy Spirit, we are enabled to draw upon the anointing… Continue reading Are our words living or empty

When you say, “Have faith,” are you actually saying, “Have hope”? Hope reaches out to the future and believes that God will eventually move in a situation, and this hope is often mingled with faith. But now there has to be a change. We must believe for the tremendous works of God to be wrought… Continue reading Work the living works

An ambassador is a diplomatic official of the highest rank, appointed and accredited as a representative in residence by one government to another. Philippians 3:20 says for our citizenship is in heaven. We are ambassadors of heaven on earth. So our citizenship is not of earth, we are citizens of heaven. We are connected to… Continue reading Ambassadors

We come into a unity of spirit before we come into a unity of faith, where we all believe the same way. Most believers lean upon their own understanding, and what they have been taught by man, or the church they go to. There are certain qualities of spirit we need to possess in order… Continue reading A right spirit precedes a right mind

When we learn how to activate our spirit and tune into the Presence of God where the Lord meets us, then we can begin to minister the Spirit to others. We can tune into God and then tune in to another so that the Spirit of God can touch their spirit. There are a lot… Continue reading Ministering the Spirit

In ancient warfare, whenever an enemy took over a territory and did not want that land or its people to survive, the enemy would sow the fields with salt and throw dead carcasses in the wells. We read in Genesis how Isaac dug again the wells which his father Abraham had dug, because the Philistines… Continue reading A pure flow of the Word

The goal and objective of every believer should be to speak words that are alive and filled with the anointing and presence of God Himself. The Spirit of God should be released through the words we speak. When our spirit is in contact with the Holy Spirit, we are enabled to draw upon the anointing… Continue reading A living word or empty words

The Lord wants to teach us about His authority and His fullness so that we can move into what He has for us, in these last days- His authority and His fullness are really the issue in this day. Our adequacy is never an issue unless we make it one. If we keep feeling adequate,… Continue reading The end of the professionals
