Improper Flow
“The woman could see that the tree was beautiful and the fruit looked so good to eat. She also liked the idea that it would make her wise. So she took some of the fruit from the tree and ate it. Her husband was there with her, so she gave him some of the fruit, and he ate it” Gen.3:6 [ERV].
A key thing we must realize about community is we have to maintain proper flow. While we stand one with another, stand one for another, and stand together we have to be in proper flow. So it is improper flow for provision to be flowing from Eve to Adam. It is improper flow for the vision for your children and your family to be flowing from your wife to you.

Community
“Two people are better off than one… If one person falls, the other can reach out and help. But someone who falls alone is in real trouble… A person standing alone can be attacked and defeated, …two can stand back-to-back and conquer. Three are even better…”Eccl.4:9-10, 12
When the enemy wants to destroy someone or destroy a destiny, the first thing he does is he takes the person out of community. The enemy would make the person get upset at something and then remove him or her from the covering of the people that God has put around him or her. But God is clear in His Word that “Two people are better off than one, for they can help each other succeed. If one person falls, the other can reach out and help. But someone who falls alone is in real trouble… A person standing alone can be attacked and defeated, but two can stand back-to-back and conquer. Three are even better…” Eccl.4:9-10 & 12. God is saying you need to realize the power of Read the rest of this entry
Two Are Better!
“So let us come boldly to the throne of our gracious God. There we will receive his mercy, and we will find grace to help us when we need it most” Heb.4:16 [emphasis added]
The Word of God says Jesus lives forever to make intersession for us. “So then, since we have a great High Priest who has entered heaven, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold firmly to what we believe. This High Priest of ours understands our weaknesses, for he faced all of the same testings we do, yet he did not sin. So let us come boldly to the throne of our gracious God. There we will receive his mercy, and we will find grace to help us when we need it most” Heb.4:14 -16 [emphasis added]. Read the rest of this entry
Spiritual Influence
“…I, Daniel, learned from reading the word of the Lord… that Jerusalem must lie desolate for seventy years. So I turned to the Lord God and pleaded with him in prayer and fasting. I also wore rough burlap and sprinkled myself with ashes. Dan.9:2-3
I am praying that you will have influence with God. God was going to destroy Sodom and Gomorrah and Abraham knew that it is not enough to hear from heaven, you must be willing and able to engage. And he engaged the Maker of the heavens and the earth. Abraham says do not be upset O God, if you find fifty people in the land will you still destroy the Land? God says for fifty I will not Read the rest of this entry
Must Have II
“One day the members of the heavenly court came to present themselves before the Lord, and the accuser, satan, came with them. Then the Lord asked satan, “Have you noticed my servant Job? Satan replied to the Lord, “Yes, but Job has good reason to fear God” Job 1:6, 8-9
What do you think would have happened if Job had been able to listen in to that conversation? Would that have changed Job’s attitude a little bit? What do you think would have happened? I hope you can handle what I am going to share with you next? When we are still worshipping at a rented facility, I heard a conversation that was going to shut the door to getting our own land. In Read the rest of this entry
Must Have I
“My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me” Jn.10:27.
The Supernatural: Simply put, the supernatural means the natural that is super and in plain language, the unseen world. There is a world that cannot be seen and the world that cannot be seen is so active it is unbelievable. In the unseen world there are two things that I want you to know and that you have Read the rest of this entry
“The Fruit” II
“Get out of here, Satan,” Jesus told him. “For the Scriptures say, ‘You must worship the Lord your God and serve only him.’” Then the devil went away [NEUTRALIZED], and angels came and took care of Jesus” Matt.4:2 [added text in bold font].
Please read Matthew 4:2-11. Take note of these three things: “If you are the Son of God, tell these stones to become loaves of bread.” [Lust of the flesh]; “If you are the Son of God, jump off! [Pride of life]; and showed him all the kingdoms of the world [lust of the eyes]. Whenever you neutralize the devil Read the rest of this entry
“The Fruit” I
“The woman was convinced. She saw that the tree was beautiful and its fruit looked delicious, and she wanted the wisdom it would give her. So she took some of the fruit and ate it. Then she gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it, too” Gen.3:6.
Sometimes I get upset that Adam and Eve just sold us short because of one fruit. But I realized that it was deeper than that, satan was not selling the fruit to Eve, he was selling the world. And it is because satan knew that as soon as she eats the fruit, there will be something of his that will be deposited in her as a mole. So she cannot say like Jesus would say, the prince of this world comes and has nothing in me because there would have been something in her. Read the rest of this entry
The World
“…don’t you know that friendship with the world means enmity against God? Therefore, anyone who chooses to be a friend of the world becomes an enemy of God” James 4:4 [emphasis added].
What is the world? The Word of God says for God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believes in him should not perish but have everlasting life [Jn.3:16]. For God so loved the world… and God is saying to us love not the world, if you love the world you become an enemy of God. So what is God saying? When you see the word world in the Bible it means the system of the world and the people in the world. God so loved the people in the world that He died for them but He is saying to you and I do not love the system of the world. Read the rest of this entry
Real Victory
“I don’t have much more time to talk to you, because the ruler of this world approaches. He has no power over me” John 14:30
To neutralize the enemy you must make sure that there is nothing in you that the enemy feeds on and thrives on. One of our greatest challenges as a nation, why we have not been able to deal with terrorism is because among the military they have moles. In the government we have moles. Until the moles are brutally dealt with we may not be able to go anywhere. Jesus says, Read the rest of this entry
