The priests that bare the ark of the covenant of the Lord stood firm on dry ground in the midst of Jordan, and all Israel . . . passed clean over Jordan. Joshua 3:17

There are sometimes moments in our lives that are quite life changing. One of those moments for me happened on the morning of February 16, 1976 in Coos Bay, Oregon. We were camped on the Coos River planting trees to raise support for our Bible School in Kerman, California. I felt like I was finished, you know, can’t do this another..

MERRY MONDAY BY PARRIS-

“Praise the Lord, my soul;

all my inmost being, praise his holy name.

Praise the Lord, my soul,

and forget not all his benefits—

who forgives all your sins

and heals all your diseases,

who redeems your life from the pit

and crowns you with love and compassion,

who satisfies your desires with good things

so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s” Ps.103:1-3
When New Orleans goes into a dry season the river where I live becomes beautiful. It is clear, shallow..

Heb. 9:12 and he entered once for all into the most holy place not by the blood of goats and calves but by his own blood, and so he himself secured eternal redemption.

Have you noticed the more modern and ‘relevant’ church becomes, the more it loses it’s power and its relevance in our lives. For example, have you heard a sermon recently on the power of the blood of Jesus? Do you understand the significance of the communion table and the power that resides there? The blood of Jesus is at the he..

Luke 17:15,16 And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, returned, and with a loud voice glorified God, and fell down on his face at His feet, giving Him thanks. And he was a Samaritan.

This is one of the great miracles of Jesus recorded in the Bible. If you are not observant you may miss the real miracle. Of course the healing of leprosy was spectacular just as all of God’s miracles are, but the greatest miracle in this story was not so spectacular. It was more of a hidden, mysterious..

PSA. 116:17 I will offer to You the sacrifice of thanksgiving,
And will call upon the name of the LORD.
True spirituality is all about the heart. The world is filled with religious activities that really mean nothing to God. One of the most terrifying passages of scripture is found in Amos 5. It says,
“Though you offer Me burnt offerings and your grain offerings,

I will not accept them,

Nor will I regard your fattened peace offerings.
Take away from Me the noise of your songs,

For I wil..

Heb. 8:1,2 – Now this is the main point of the things we are saying: We have such a High Priest, who is seated at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens, a Minister of the sanctuary and of the true tabernacle which the Lord erected, and not man.

The heavenly ministry of Jesus cannot be overestimated or over emphasized; His present day ministry is the source of our heavenly life. When Jesus entered into heaven as a man He entered for us. Not only did He bring His blood as an..

Heb. 8:10 For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the LORD: I will put My laws in their mind and write them on their hearts; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people.

How can a leopard change his spots? Of course we know that is impossible. How can a human change his heart? That too is impossible; unless? Unless there is a God encounter. Humans are basically flawed. Something is haywire in our DNA. We carry a significant flaw in who..

After they prayed, the place where they were meeting was shaken.
And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit

and spoke the word of God boldly.

ACTS 4:31

There is something special about Christian brothers and sisters moving together in unity. In Psalms 133 it is called the place of commanded blessing. David compared it to the oil being poured on the first high priest, Aaron. Of course this awakens visions in our heads about Jesus, our Heavenly High Priest, and the heavenly anointing oil po..

Arise, go to Zarephath, which belongs to Sidon, and dwell there. Behold, I have commanded a widow there to feed you. 1 Kings 17:9

This is such an interesting story where two people have to work together to see the God of supply. Elijah was living by a brook that just dried up when the Lord redirected him to a widow for provision. We have to also think about the widow out there collecting sticks for her last meal to feed her son. They were on a collision course with prov..

By what power, or in what name, have ye done this? Acts 4:7

Revelation is incredible, it never stops; it comes to us in waves. Over the last several months I have been thinking again and again about something I have known for a long time, but has recently become more precious and real to me by revelation from the Holy Spirit. That something is this, when Jesus became a man, He became a man permanently. He is still a man. What is the significance of that? He represents me as a man before the Fat..
