We have to get hungry

God is doing amazing things at my home church of Apostolic Revival Center (ARC) of Carson City.  My pastor, Joel Buxton, just got back from Kenya and Ethiopia where he preached with his father.  They experienced the power of God there and he came back to preach to us with a vengeance. The preaching last…

Healing through the Holy Ghost

Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? 1 Corinthians 3:16 As I was praying to God on Friday, I was reminded of a couple of scriptures regarding the Holy Spirit.   The first is in regard to Solomon’s temple.  When Solomon’s temple was first…

Joy Haney books on consecration, prayer, miracles

I have been an avid reader of Joy Haney’s books for well approaching two decades and just want to point out three that have helped me considerably in my walk with God.  These are: Behold the Nazarite Woman This book speaks to a higher level of consecration.  In the Old Testament, people, both men and…

Worship is the weapon

However, that doesn’t mean we don’t have to…

For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.–1 John 5:4  The more you draw close to God, the more Satan will rise up to resist you.  You have to have spiritual discernment to recognize it for the attack that it is.  Walking…

The power of prayer

Whenever you try to do a work for God, Satan will stand up to resist you.  Yesterday, I was experiencing immense pain in my neck, so much that I had difficulty keeping my head up and had to lay down and prop it up.  I couldn’t move my neck hardly at all.  I recognized it…

Living Water

Jesus answered and said unto her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water.  John 4:10   Jesus encountered a woman, a woman with a past.  You see, she had been with…

Faith beyond common sense

Accounting that God was able to raise him up, even from the dead; from whence also he received him in a figure.  Hebrews 11:19 I can’t even fathom was occurred in his mind and heart, but even being able to grasp that God told you to sacrifice your child, the miracle child that God had given you,…
