Mantles For Modern Times

Contributed by Dr. Jonathan Vorce on Dec 30, 2022

Joel prophesied of a time when the sons and daughters would prophesy, young men would see visions, and old men would dream dreams. We are in those days today. For them to be wholly fulfilled, mantles of power, anointing unique to heaven, must be released in the earth.

Introduction Caution: We are not talking about “Grave Sucking” – the act of lying across the physical grave of a deceased preacher or evangelist for the purpose of “pulling out” the power of the Holy Spirit, a power that was purportedly “trapped” within the body upon the person’s death.

The Day Of The Lord Will Come

Contributed by Chris Swanson on Jan 1, 2023

The people of Judah had become prosperous and smug in their relationship with God. The book of Joel is one of warning to the people of Judah and it can be applied to believers today.

Underestimating God, they became egotistical, they worshipped idols and fell into sin. Joel cautions them that this way of life will unavoidably cause God to cast His judgment down on them. In the first part of chapter 1, Joel predicts that a locust plague will befall the people of Judah. In the ...read more

Kingdom Keys - Genesis Series

Contributed by Robert Butler on Jan 25, 2023

This is the book of beginnings. It depicts the story of Creation, the entry of sin, the flood, God's plan for redemption through the patriarchs of Israel. Like Abram, we are the sent people of God to be a blessing to humanity by testifying about God, His Son and the power of the Holy Spirit.

If you have been in church at all in your life then you have heard someone say to know God and his will for your life you need to read your bible regularly. I’ve heard it, said it and even suggested memorizing parts of scripture. However, the truth is many people rarely open “THE BOOK” to discover ...read more

Praying For A Collision With The Holy Spirit

Contributed by Delray Lentz on Feb 10, 2023

Today’s message will be centered around Acts 1:4-5, and we’ll look at several passages that will bolster this message, and why I believe the body of Christ (the church) needs a collision; now perhaps, more than any other time in our history.

How many of you are like us, before we go on a trip we say a prayer asking for travel mercies, something like this “Lord, we are praying for a collision”… Y’all are looking a bit confused out there! We’ll get back to that. Today’s message will be centered around Acts 1:4-5, and we’ll look at ...read more

Is It Worth It?

Contributed by Simon Bartlett on May 13, 2023

This week it's 'Christian Aid Week' (in the UK). Christian Aid calls on Christians to 'give, act and pray.' All good things to do. But we might wonder, is it worth it? Isn't the situation for Planet Earth hopeless?

This week is ‘Christian Aid Week.’ Once a year, Christian Aid especially encourages us as Christians to think about how we respond to a great sea of need in the world. Since this is Christian Aid Week, I thought I should tell you what Christian Aid want to tell us. Christian Aid has prepared ...read more

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Jun 20, 2023

Paul was always interested in what people believed. What you believe determines how you live, what you do and what you can receive. Spirit-filled Christians live different from culture, customs, and surroundings. They live as lights in a dark world.

Season To See Jesus Face To Face On A Daily Basis

Contributed by Samuel M on Mar 1, 2025

In the Old Testament, there was one Moses who met God face to face on a daily basis. However, in these last days, God will raise many people like Moses who will meet and see God’s face on a daily basis.
