Luke 23:34 TPT  While they were nailing Jesus to the cross, he prayed over and over, “Father, forgive them, for they don’t know what they’re doing.” The soldiers, after they crucified him, gambled over his clothing. Acts 7:54-60 TPT  When they heard these things, they were overtaken with violent rage filling their souls, and they […]

Some years ago, my heart was captivated with the joy of life “behind the veil.” Beholding His presence in the secret place has become my favorite pastime. My great passion in life, which constantly drives me, is to discover and experience all that I possibly can of my union with Christ during my time spent

When God gave Abraham the promise that in his seed, all the families of the earth would be blessed, he was 75 years old, and Sarah was 65 and had been barren all her life. Over the next 24 years, God reiterated his promise to Abraham again and again. During those 24 years, Abraham tried

We do not want the experience of last year. We don’t even want to experience of yesterday. We want to be sons and daughters of fresh oil. Those controlled by the spirit of this age take great pains to obtain new things, but there is only one place where we can find real newness –

“Therefore if any person is engrafted in Christ, he is a new creation (a new creature altogether); the old, previous moral and spiritual condition has passed away.
