“And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions” (Joel 2:28).

We often think of God as a benevolent helper, but He is also the sovereign ruler of His Kingdom and the supreme judge in the court of heaven. “God presides over heaven’s court; He pronounces judgment on the heavenly beings” (Psalm 82:1 NLT). Daniel received …
Prayer flows naturally when you genuinely care for the person or object of your prayer. But for many who live in America, there are barriers to a flow of genuine prayer for the country. Like bittersweet delicacies, America has served good and bad experiences for many of her constituents. So, they have to overcome memories …
Before Jesus performed any miracle, sign, or wonder, the Father announced His approval, saying from heaven, “This is my beloved Son in whom I am well pleased” (Matthew 3:17). His identity—”beloved son”—was not in works but relationship. Jesus echoes the same sentiment to us in Scripture, “to those who receive Him, He gives the power …
For many, the end of the year is a time of mixed emotions. Regrets and sorrow for things lost play a tug of war with hopes for better times ahead. The temptation to reflect on things that have gone wrong is strong, enhanced by the reality that precious time has gone by. And if we yield to the temptation to focus on what’s gone wrong, we join the ranks of Lot’s wife, who turned to a pillar of salt for looking back (Genesis 19:26).

I have a heart for ministry leaders. In addition to being one, I see their struggles and their often thankless efforts in service to others. At the same time, when leaders get better, their followers also get better, and I want to improve and see other ministry leaders do the same.

Joseph, the governor of a nation, survived an attempted murder by his brothers. He was human trafficked into slavery in a foreign country, sexually assaulted by a married woman, and wrongfully convicted and thrown into prison. But that’s now how his journey began.
In Daniel 9, Daniel read Jeremiah’s prophetic words and discovered that there was a set time for the captivity of his people to come to an end. But he needed the angel of the Lord to help him understand what he was reading and what actually needed to happen for the Jews to experience true liberation—in practice. Jeremiah had pronounced it, but it had not come to pass.
Similarly, the United States had lawfully pronounced the freedom of slaves in the 1862 Emancipation Proclamation. Still, it did not happen in practice—it was not fully enforced until two and a half years later, on June 19, 1865, in Galveston, Texas.
