For years, eschatology junkies have pondering the meaning of Babylon mentioned in the book of Revelation (namely Rev. 17 & 18). Most (but not all) have spiritualized it’s appearance in the book by saying that is symbolic of anything from America, to the internet, to media, to Islam…and on and on. My question has been:Continue reading “Rebuilding Babylon”

The kindness of the Lord
I’ve been thinking about the kindness of the Lord today, specifically His unrelenting commitment to humble us. The Lord is more committed to humbling us than making our lives, relationships, or ministries flourish. This may seem like a harsh thing but the Lord is about glorifying Himself and His Son above all else- and rightlyContinue reading “The kindness of the Lord”
Incense
God loves prayer. Why wouldn’t He? It’s through prayer that His bride talks to Him, worships Him, and shows her devotion to Him. Just as a husband and wife spend hours together conversing, laughing, and communicating, so Jesus longs to do with us. To minimize the communication of a relationship is to simply disregard theContinue reading “Incense”
Waiting
The scroll that is in the right hand of the Father right now still has to be opened. This event that John saw in Revelation 5 has not yet occurred. This scroll signifies the title deed of the earth – its seven seals the action plan necessary to bring about the fullness of the scroll’sContinue reading “Waiting”
The Power of Asking – part 2
Jesus, in Luke 11, highlights the power of unceasing prayer. He tells His disciples that through persistence their requests will be given. Paul echos this revelation with his exhortation to the church of Colossi, “Continue earnestly in prayer, being vigilant in it with thanksgiving…” This principle for asking does not only apply to righteous requestsContinue reading “The Power of Asking – part 2”
The Power of Asking
Intercession is a the most powerful force given to man. Its possibilities are infinite because God is infinite. His power knows no bounds, His strength is unfettered. In Luke 18, Jesus gives a parable of a widow who is relentless in her pursuit of justice from an unjust judge. Eventually, she wearies such a manContinue reading “The Power of Asking”
A Common Response to the Presidential Election
This has been such an interesting election. I think that I’ve learned more concerning the election process, the moral and political stance of our nation, and been far more interested in the presidential and vice presidential candidates than any other previous election. Responses from the conservative christian camp has ranged from anger and confusion toContinue reading “A Common Response to the Presidential Election”
God’s Mercy
In the recent event surrounding the presidential election some difficult emotions have been aroused in my heart. Questions like: “Did we as the praying and fasting community miss it? Was it part of God’s sovereign plan to allow Barak Obama to be elected? What does this mean for the unborn and Israel? Are we goingContinue reading “God’s Mercy”
It must end
It has been a while since I’ve posted, my apologies for this. Lack of content really, and lack of a computer hard drive which decided to toss in the towel early last week. I came across a couple of quotes from a book called “Hitler and the Holocaust”. When I read them, I was burdenedContinue reading “It must end”
Obama’s Abortion Extremism
Sen. Barack Obama’s views on life issues ranging from abortion to embryonic stem cell research mark him as not merely a pro-choice politician, but rather as the most extreme pro-abortion candidate to have ever run on a major party ticket. Barack Obama is the most extreme pro-abortion candidate ever to seek the office of PresidentContinue reading “Obama’s Abortion Extremism”
