While we love the joyful celebrations of the Christmas season when we remember the birth of our Savior, Resurrection Sunday is the most important day of the year for believers, for the resurrection of Christ from the dead is the foundation of our faith (I Cor. 15).
Of all the supernatural mysteries and revelation in Scripture, I believe the miracle of "Christ in us" is the most glorious of all. He is in us, and we are in Him, and our spirits have become one (1 Cor. 6:17).
I recently shared a message on how to practically and experientially live to our sacred union with God and you are welcome to watch it here. Enjoy!
Would it make a difference in what I receive from the Lord if, when I partake of the Lord’s Supper, I view it as a sacrament (a means of receiving His life-transforming power) rather than simply a symbol?
Lord, what would You speak to me?
Mark, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No man comes to the Father except by Me. It is time to re-introduce this to your people.
When we lay hands on the sick to recover or lead a person into salvation, are we to feel a flow of divine power and see this power (or the Holy Spirit) entering them, or do we take it by faith? And what is the role of love in this entire process? Let’s see if we can answer these questions.
Our nation and world are reeling in deception and darkness. Lies are all around us: corrupt elections, corrupt politicians, corrupt news media, corrupt public education, a corrupt CDC, corrupt Supreme Court and governors, corrupt pastors who preach an unanointed church with no power to transform society and a powerful satan who will destroy society. Other atrocities include child sex trafficking, sexual perversion, drugs, hopelessness and pandemic fear. So is this the end? Should I despair? Absolutely NOT!!!
I devoured Neil Miller’s book, What If Listening to God Was Easy? The theme of this book has been my heart's passion for 40 years, and it is enjoyable, fun, and easy to read as it is filled with stories, just as Jesus’ teaching was.
I have waited for this book to be written for many years. One statement I love in this book, which also expresses the main theme of the book, is that "to fulfill the Lord’s commission to disciple nations, people have to see wonders, miracles, deliverance, healings and even experience the resurrection of the dead through the power of the Holy Spirit.”
This is the form of ministry and evangelism Jesus practiced. Jesus ministered a compassionate, loving, healing touch to all He encountered. The Church today must do the same. This book will help you minister and evangelize in the same manner as Jesus.
Dr. Raynold Milfort has received his doctorate from Christian Leadership University. I was proud to write the above endorsement for his book, Anointed Discipleship. THIS is what will fulfill the Great Commission.
When I began pastoring in the late 1970’s, we created small groups which met weekly for sharing, Bible study, prayer for personal needs, and fellowship. Everyone completed the assigned study during the week, and came to the meetings prepared to share what God had revealed to them during their meditation upon Scripture. We worked our way “Through the Bible” with a 2-year program. Years later, people have commented that this was the place they received their grounding in Scripture.
While at Roberts Wesleyan College, majoring in Religion Philosophy and minoring in Psychology, I did a paper for my psychology course which I titled “The Psychology of Revivals.” I truly desired to be part of a revival.
