Deep calling to deep
I experienced a type of prayer that I can’t remember going through (at least in quite some time). It was a deep calling to deep experience and I am so grateful for the Spirit walking me through it. When I went to bed I was mulling over yet another car repair and making sure we had enough money. Through the…

What Does It Mean to “Own” a Country?
Actually, I have no idea. It was a challenge dropped into my heart during prayer a few weeks ago. There have been several things dropped into my heart in the past few weeks that have stirred me to prayer. These are things beyond me. Owning a country is one of them. It’s not “buying” a country. Wouldn’t that be nice? As…

What generous prayers! God’s overwhelming power is at work in each of us. Truly PRAY over your friends this way this week!

Standing Between the Living and the Dead
Intercession. The picture I see of intercession is found in Numbers 16. A plague has rushed through Israel’s camp (again) because of their complaining (again). Moses (AGAIN) intercedes for the people. He falls to his face asking God to stop the plague. He then sends Aaron out with the censer from the altar. The incense was offered up as a…
