Supernatural provision, Part 1, defined lean times as an absence of food, finances, etc. In other words, not enough. In those times, we must consider the choices we make. Part 2 reveals how you can still receive supernatural provision in the worst of times by studying the life of Joseph (Genesis 37-50). Joseph was sold into slavery by his brothers and taken to Egypt. When we study his reaction to all of this and the choices he made, we find a young man who refused to allow his circumstances to dictate how he lived his life. He stayed true to his Read More

Part 1 – Supernatural Provision: Trust God in the Lean Times
We have to learn to TRUST God in times of famine and times of plenty. Lean times are defined as a time when there is not enough. A time when there are shortages of food and finances. Supernatural provision is not the norm for most people; however, it is very possible. So when does God provide for you supernaturally? Is it when you have a need? Is it when you spend hours crying and complaining about what you do not have? No. God responds to FAITH, not need. Take a look at Exodus 16. God sent manna from heaven each day Read More
Healing: It’s Part of Our Divine Covenant
Healing is part of our covenant with God. We were healed by His stripes. Notice the ‘were’; it’s already done. From the Old Testament and throughout the New Testament God continually reveals to us His plan for us to be whole. I have a few friends who are in need of healing and I pray for them daily. Some of them know they are already healed, others need a reminder of what Jesus did for us on the cross. God’s plan of Salvation: Sozo means to save, to deliver or protect (literally or figuratively):—heal, preserve, save (self), do well, be (make) whole. God Read More
Prepare for the Storms of Life
Prepare! Storm warnings are out for the east coast as Hurricane Irma roars toward land as a Category 5 hurricane. Storms come and go. Did you know September is actually National Preparedness Month? Please check out the website to learn how to prepare when natural storms are headed your way. In the natural, we are encouraged to prepare for storms coming our way. In the Spirit, we should also be prepared for storms. These spiritual storms may not come with heavy rain, winds, flooding, or tornados, but they can be just as devastating. What can we do to prepare? In Read More
Offenses: Stop Talking and Pursue Peace
Over the past few weeks, I heard the Holy Spirit say, ‘People are in agreement with the wrong spirit and are taking on the offenses of others.’ The Holy Spirit said ‘Stop’, right now. Stop it. Not long ago my pastor taught a sermon on taking on offenses. If someone does something to another person, we are not to take on that offense. It did not happen to us. Sure we can empathize with others, but we are not to take on their offense. I know sometimes that is hard because we all want to make sure people are being Read More
Suddenlies: Godly Mushrooming
We are in a season of ‘Godly Mushrooming’ or Suddenlies. Things are speeding up in the natural and in the Spirit. Have you noticed it? The word ‘mushroom‘ has many meanings including ‘an umbrella shaped fungus’. The definition I am using today is ‘to spring up suddenly or multiply rapidly’. The verb form of mushroom is ‘mushrooming’ meaning a sudden, rapid growth. Many species of mushrooms seemingly appear suddenly overnight, growing or expanding rapidly. It’s been so wet and rainy here in Tulsa that huge mushrooms are springing up everywhere; which inspired me to write this post. Take a look at Read More
