As we mentioned last week, true faith is faith in God—not in a principle, an outcome, or in our faith, but in Him. Faith is the currency of the kingdom. In the new covenant, we are called to walk by faith and in truth. If we are not walking in all the benefits Jesus went to the cross to provide, then we need more knowledge about the cross and more faith in the power of His sacrifice. 

         I am not currently walking in all the benefits of the new covenant—and I...

          With each new year, we have new hope for better things to come. I pray this year will be your best yet. So, what would make this the best year of your life? This would be a good time to define the best thing that could happen in your life. Would it be the salvation or reconciliation of a loved one? Your healing or theirs?

         In 2018 I was given a dramatic dream in which I was shown the...

       The title for this week’s word is also the title of our upcoming New Year’s conference. In this gathering, we seek to hear a prophetic word for the coming year, thus we call it the Vision Conference. The Lord has honored this, and our words have been getting increasingly specific and exciting. At last year’s conference, Chris Reed gave his “40 Prophecies for 2023 and Beyond,” which would either happen or begin to unfold in 2023. Some of the more mystifying words happened within a few weeks. And now, as we approach the end of the year,...

         As we continue our study of life in the kingdom, beginning with the critical factor of new covenant church life, one of the most common questions I am asked is, “What do I do if there’s no church body near me to fit into?” My answer is always the same—“Move!”

         Years ago, I was shown by the Lord that most of His people were not living in the place to which He had called them. Also,  this would become increasingly dangerous in the times we are entering. He said that most were...
