    Rod Parsley Asks, ‘Is Your Church a House of Prayer?’

    The stunning message Jesus delivered is that when two or more (two being the smallest number possible for agreement) believers come together in unified faith, they jointly operate in multiplied levels of authority.

    Kingdom Economics: The Importance of Displaying a Christlike Attitude Toward Others

    Inflation, wages which have less purchasing power, an unsecured border, increasing taxes, a greater regulatory burden, spot shortages, political intrigue, a slowing economy and geopolitical problems are grabbing the news.

    Anne Graham Lotz: One Kingdom Truth That Will Never Change

    Out of respect for those of you who have taken the time to comment about a statement I made 11 years ago regarding the World Economic Forum, I thought it would be beneficial to restate God’s call on my life. In 1988, He made it clear that I was to be His messenger, going wherever

  • A Big Excuse That Shuts Down Our Ability to Hear from God

    A Big Excuse That Shuts Down Our Ability to Hear from God

    One of the biggest excuses we have is that we somehow feel God doesn’t speak to us. This excuse shuts down our ability to hear from Him, trust Him and surrender to Him. All three things are integral when we are trying to change our habits, lose weight, get healthy and follow God’s plan for

    How You Can Plead the Blood of Jesus in the Courts of Heaven

    You have an enemy. His goal is to keep you from entering a covenant relationship with God. However, once you do, his goal changes. He wants to make you doubt your identity, doubt God’s ability and keep you from walking in your purpose. He changes his accusations against you in the spiritual realm from not

    Why Pastors and Local Elders Need to Wake Up to the Move of the Spirit

    It has been my experience over many years of ministry that most ministers fall short of giving themselves to prayer and the Word. “But we will [continue to] devote ourselves [steadfastly] to prayer and to the ministry of the word” (Acts 6:4, AMP). Today we have too much focus on the intellect and degrees and

    Joyce Meyer’s Daughter: ‘I Tried Until I Almost Died!’

    Growing up as the daughter of Dave and Joyce Meyer, Sandra McCollom knew about God’s goodness and unconditional love. “At eight years old, I remember sitting on the floor as my mom shared her faith with me.

    Is He a God of Wrath or a God of Love?

    Do you think the God of the Old Testament is a God of wrath, and the God of the New Testament is a God of love? The truth is that God is the same throughout the entire Bible. His wrath and His love are revealed in both the Old and the New Testaments. So why,

    How the Holy Spirit Can Restore Your True Sanity

    Most of my life I tried to avoid one thing—being crazy or insane. When I was growing up my mother had emotional issues and saw a psychiatrist regularly. She was on medication which only seemed to make her mood swings worse. She had high highs, and low lows. When I asked my dad what was wrong

    My husband had a saying for our children growing up. “Partial obedience is disobedience.” He wanted them to understand that doing half the plan would not get them the full reward. Another reminder we used to tell our kids was, “Don’t think about it, don’t hesitate, just do it.” As children with a limited view

    Why America Must Adopt the Battle Cry of Isaiah

    A battle cry is used to summon armies to war. A loud, unified shout could intimidate the strongest of enemies.
