Most telling, Trump openly began professing his belief in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior and that God had healed him and Melania of COVID-19. He moved the embassy to Jerusalem by God’s leading and in support of Israel. I then examined another author’s documentation of Trump as the Cyrus Candidate (Lance Wallnau; The Chaos…

I was not going to address the recent assassination attempt on President Trump, but the Holy Spirit had a different idea. Leadership in crises is a desperately needed skill. When researching leaders, I study the person and their actions with the benefit of original documentation foresight, as well as hindsight of historical results. I look…
Read moreBe Sure No One Deceives You
As leaders, we must be aware of deceptive practices. Whether we are leading a business, a classroom, a church, or a family, the spirit of deception is active and attempts to keep us from accomplishing our God-given purpose on earth. Deception is a subtle scheme that makes sin look different from its true condition. Eventually,…
Read moreLeadership and Setting Things Right
Sometimes, it becomes incumbent on a leader to correct problems. That corrective action may be painful for the leader to execute and may lead to pain and loss for others, an organization, and a culture, but ultimately, it results in improvement. The leader has to use the power of his/her position or their referential/assumed power…

This is the third and final post in this series on the end-time church. In the previous post, we reviewed the functions of the end-time church in the Kingdom of God. We are not, as leaders and Kingdom messengers, to sit idly by waiting on the rapture during the latter days. Don’t get me wrong,…

Read moreProphecy of The End-Time Church
There is a special church in our future. This church was prophesied approximately 700 years before Christ’s birth. It is the church of the latter days on this earth. When it will be established in its fullness, I do not know. I have a strong sense it is in its developmental stages and may be…

In the last post, I dealt with leading the church in difficult times. Boldly leading the church when the culture attacks from all sides will be difficult and require a special leader. How do we find, train, and turn these strong leaders loose? Stay tuned. When Christ began calling his disciples, He bade them to…
Read moreLeading the Ekklesia at This Time in History
This post may be a multiple-day affair. The Holy Spirit started working on me with a message about leadership in perilous times. We are definitely in that time. In his book Shaping History Through Prayer and Fasting (1973/2023), Derek Prince relates a story of a vision for Kenya in the 1960s. A young man in…

As 2023 advances into 2024, our roles as leaders in God’s Ekklesia will take on even greater importance. There appears to be a segment of societies around the world that want to change culture in order to eliminate all things associated with God and Jesus Christ. Actually, it is likely more accurate to say that…
