We are so glad you are here. It is our heart’s desire to serve you and bring the Life of Christ to you through the prophetic word and prophetic teaching.

Prophecy and the prophetic ministry is a life giving source that the Lord has raised up and should be utilized and appreciated in the local church. In 1 Thes 5:20 we read, “...do not DESPISE prophecy...” which tell us that there were those then, in the early church, who disliked this gift and ministry. To prevent us ‘despising’ prophecy today it is of paramount importance that we be taught the correct Biblical understanding of these things.

Spend some time with us. Our website is going through tremendous changes and it is truly our heart’s desire to offer a website that is as life-giving as the prophetic word. So, visit us often, things are always changing, with new updates and teachings available on a regular basis.

Hebrews 13:5 “Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, “never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.”

Having money can be a useful and wonderful tool, not only for life, but for God’s Kingdom. However, we are clearly taught in Hebrews, to actually keep our lives from the “love of money”. It is the love money that is the root of all evil (1 Timothy 6:10).

We have to avoid valuing money or becoming controlled by it. It is always a challenge that money becomes to important to us or of actually thinking about what money can do for us.

It is always been God’s plan to supply all of our needs and to take care of us financially, as Philippians 4:19 says, “my God shall supply all of my needs”, and then even more than that. God wants us to prosper. However, we need to keep our lives free from the importance of money or the importance of valuing it too much.

It is always going to be a challenge, in our walk with the Lord to always reevaluate our lives. So often God will ask you to give a sizable amount of money, just to make sure that you are not attached to it. Especially when it costs you something. David said that he would not give to God, that which would cost him nothing. When you give to God, you have to feel it as a real sacrifice, that way you are crucifying each time any possibility of valuing money too much

1 Thessalonians 2:18

“For we wanted to come to you – certainly I, Paul, did, again and again – but Satan blocked our way.”

Satan stopping us seems to be a very clear reality in any Christian’s life endeavoring to do God’s will. Paul tells the church in Thessalonica that he really wants to be with them, and tried on numerous occasions, but the devil put a stop to his plans of coming. He was very aware of the enemy and his resistance. When we purpose to serve God in our lives, there is resistance of the enemy. Although, he may not overcome, he may hinder or cause difficulty along the road. If he doesn’t, then we can be sure that we know, that we are no threat to him.

Paul knew that it was the devil stopping him, rather than God hindering him, that we read of in Acts 16:4-6. He knew it was the enemy because of the evidence in his heart that he thought it was God’s will for him to go. That is how we know, when circumstances change in our lives, whether it is God or the devil.

We know that he may only hinder for awhile, but God will always give us the victory.
