Prophetic panting, dancing, worship and scribing are nothing new, but I see a notable rise in schools to equip and train people in artful expressions that edify the church.Those who have anointings, knowledge and skill will be compelled to teach others their prophetic craft.
It’s time, so to speak, to throw the mantle on a new generation that hungers for purity and expresses the heart of God. Just as we see the “sons of the prophets” in the Bible, we will see the “sons of the artists” emerge. I see centers for prophetic arts gathering, training and sending people into their prophetic destinies to minister to people for the Lord.
God created art and is the Master Artist. He created the heavens and the earth, the sun, the moon and the stars—and it’s magnificent. We see God filled people in the Old Testament with His Sprit, with skill, with knowledge, with craftsmanship—to create artistic designs (see Ex. 35:30-35).
As more training in prophetic arts is available, I see a wave of those who had very little training rising up with creative artistic expressions that turn heads and make headlines. We will see those who were curious become creative. Some who have never played an instrument will learn in weeks.
Those who could not sing on key will find God has touched their voice. Those who have never written a book suddenly find inspiration and revelation that causes them to write like the wind.
We will see new expressions of God’s beauty in various artful mediums in 2020 and beyond—and it will offend the religious. Emerging artists will meet with persecution, but the hate will fuel the love expressed through song, dance, words and music. {eoa}

Do you think the God of the Old Testament is a God of wrath, and the God of the New Testament is a God of love? The truth is that God is the same throughout the entire Bible. His wrath and His love are revealed in both the Old and the New Testaments. So why, then, did...
Your heart is the most important part of you. It’s not only a physical organ that keeps your blood pumping, but when the Bible refers to the heart, it’s talking about who you really are. Each person has an inner and an outer life. There’s the person we show to...
I was just praying and asking the Lord, “How can I encourage you all today?” I know there are so many challenges out there, but this is what the Lord said to me. The Lord said, “There are some longstanding thorns in your flesh,” meaning that there are some things that...
A wave of repentance and revival is sweeping across the nation and destroying the "seeker sensitive" church model. For one congregation, what started as a time of consecration and repentance has led to its Gen Z group getting baptized in a radical move of God. In...
It's been a few days since the FBI raided President Donald Trump's home in Mar-a-Lago, and the Biden Administration has yet to explain to the American people why they did what's never been done in American history—the government raiding the home of a former president....
Most of my life I tried to avoid one thing—being crazy or insane. When I was growing up my mother had emotional issues and saw a psychiatrist regularly. She was on medication which only seemed to make her mood swings worse. She had high highs, and low lows. When I...

My husband had a saying for our children growing up. “Partial obedience is disobedience.” He wanted them to understand that doing half the plan would not get them the full reward. Another reminder...
The Bureau of Labor Statistics released a surprisingly strong July Employment Report. Total nonfarm employment was 528K (398K previously, 250K expected). Private nonfarm employment was 471K (404K previously, 230K expected). The headline unemployment rate dropped to...
I hear the Lord saying, “I’m releasing my people from bondage!” As I waited on the Lord, I felt a deep overwhelming love fill my heart for people. I was taken into a vision and saw chains and very large bags being carried over the shoulders by millions of people off...
The wind is a funny thing. We do not know where it comes from nor where it goes. We cannot see it, but we can see and feel its effects. Wind can be gentle and refreshing, cold or hot, strong, and dangerous, and everything in between. When the wind blows, we must...
It is interesting that, as a Messianic rabbi the question I am asked most often by Christians is if I believe that they as Christians have to celebrate, or observe, the biblical Holy Days. They are usually asking about those days listed in Leviticus 23: Shabbat, Yom...
As the crackdown against Christianity in America grows, it is a cycle believers have seen before. While no one celebrates their religious freedom coming under attack, God has used this persecution to great effect throughout history. Over the centuries, there have been...
Change can be challenging. Some people look forward to change and embrace it. Some people dread change and try to avoid it. Since change is inevitable, so here are some of the dynamics surrounding change and the specific strategies to deal with change more...
This past weekend I preached at The Roads Church, a charismatic congregation located in the tiny town of Norris City, Illinois. Located amid cornfields, the population is only 1,325, but almost that many people visit the church on weekends. They come from all over...
