WHAT I BELIEVE
The enemy sees your potential. He knows that your life has God ordained destiny. Your destiny is dangerous to him. If you embrace Gods full purposes for your life, you will be a powerful weapon to defeat him and bring freedom to many.
Are you ready to embrace Gods full purposes for your life? Do you want to be a carrier of His Glory? Are you willing to pay the price? As Kathryn Kulman once said: It costs “everything” but It is worth it!
This is what I believe:
I believe that the Bible is the inspired and infallible Word of God, the product of holy men who spoke and wrote as they were moved by the Holy Spirit. I accept it as my infallible guide in matters pertaining to conduct and doctrine.
The Word of God is imperative to our natural life as well as our spiritual life. Everything that we do and say must be lined up with the Word of God.
I believe in One God, manifested in three persons, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
I believe that man was created in the likeness and the image of God, but that through Adam's transgression and fall, sin entered the world and therefore man must be redeemed and restored back to God through the work that Jesus completed when He died on the cross.
I believe that the only way to receive the new birth and enter the only door to the Kingdom of God is by accepting Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior and it is necessary to all me to receive eternal life.
I believe Christ is the resurrection and the life. He revives all He touches. He came to set fire to the earth in a great kingdom revival. He bore our sins, died our death, and rose again with a fire stronger than the grave. He ascended to the Fathers Glory.
I believe the Holy Spirit is the third person f the Godhead. He is the Spirit of revival. He is the sacred flame that ignites, the divine river that renews, the holy wine that intoxicates, the sovereign wind that blows where it pleases. He is the Spirit that regenerates, sanctifies, illuminates, and revives. He is the Spirit of Divinity, pure, powerful, and miraculous. Where He is there is freedom, there is life.
I believe the Word of God is alive and powerful. It is the divine revelation, the holy wisdom. It wounds and heals, kills and makes alive. It revives us causing our hearts to burn. It instructs us with the fire of wisdom, giving us the mind of Christ. It is a lamp to our feet and a light to our path.
I believe prayer is the language of the heart that longs for revival. It is the incense of adoration, the cry of desperation, the shout of faith. It is effectual and powerful to bring heavens fire to earth. The prayer of the righteous man or woman avails much.
I believe in tithing and giving offerings to your local church according to Malachi 3:10
I believe in taking communion according to First Corinthians 11: 23 - 30 as a symbol of Jesus body which was broken for me and the cup representing the New Covenant in Jesus blood.
I believe that baptism in water is by immersion, is a direct commandment from Jesus and is for believers only. Baptism is an outward symbol of the Christian's identification with Christ in His death, burial, and resurrection.
I believe that the baptism in the Holy Ghost is a gift from God as promised by the Lord Jesus Christ to those who are believers and is received subsequent to the new birth and that this experience is accompanied by the initial evidence of speaking in other tongues as the Holy Spirit Himself gives utterance. I believe that once baptized in the Holy Spirit that we are chosen to change the atmosphere around us.
I believe in divine healing for the physical ills of the human body that it is provided for in the atonement of Christ, is wrought by the power of God through the prayer of faith and by the laying on of hands, and that is the privilege of every believer.
I believe in miracles and there is nothing that God can't heal or replace.
I believe the church is the community of Christ. It is the fireplace in which His fire burns, the keeper of the flame. It is the lamp stand that shines. It is the light of the world. The church was birthed with fire on the day of Pentecost. That fire must never die but burn ever brighter until the coming of that great and glorious day. It cannot be contained. It must be spread until the entire world is aflame for Christ.
I believe that we should not forsake the assembling of ourselves together.
I believe that the gifts of the Holy Spirit in 1 Corinthians Chapter 12 are for the body of Christ today just the same as they were in the book of Acts.
I believe that the fivefold ministry is for us today according to Ephesians 4: 11 - 12 which are apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors and teachers. The fivefold ministry is for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry and for the edifying of the body of Christ. The Gifts of the Holy Spirit are NOT new age. They are New Covenant!
I believe in the imminent return of our Lord, in the resurrection of the just as His return, in the rising of the saints to meet Him in the Rapture of the Church and in His eventual return to earth to rule as King of kings and Lord of lords.
I anticipate the Inevitable, Supernatural Intervention of God. I expect a Miracle!
Faith
STEP INTO THE SUPERNATURAL REALM
As Holy Spirit filled believers, Jesus has given us the ability to see, and do things beyond the natural realm. He has given us discernment from heaven's perspective. We should be able to perceive what the Lord is doing and then release it on this earth, whether it is preaching, a prophetic word, a word of knowledge, healing or one of the other gifts of the Holy Spirit. We have been given these unique gifts to be able to tune into the frequencies of heaven, and discern the voice of God.
We cannot access this place with our natural minds or imaginations, because we are limited with our mortal bodies, but the supernatural realm could only be obtained through a personal relationship with Jesus, and knowing the Holy Spirit. We are called to transform lives, shift atmospheres, and occupy the land. Some of you fear the supernatural realm, and some don’t believe that you are worthy to receive such marvelous encounters, and sadly, some don’t believe it at all.
It’s time to step up to the next level in our faith. Everyone wants to walk on water, but no one wants to get out of the boat. The Lord is calling us out of the natural realm into the supernatural realm. We are all familiar with the story in the book of Matthew about Jesus walking on the water. As the disciples were in a boat in the middle of the sea, high waves and a tempestuous wind arose causing great turbulence.
Jesus came to them walking on the water. When they had seen Him they greatly feared thinking that He was a ghost. Immediately Jesus said “Be of good cheer. It is I, do not be afraid.” Peter replied, “Lord if it is You, bid me to come to You, walking on the water”. Jesus said, come. Peter began to walk on the water until he put his focus on the raging wind and waves. He then sank calling on Jesus to save him.
Why would Peter ask this if he knew in the natural it was impossible? It was because his faith rose when he saw Jesus doing it. When Jesus and Peter got in the boat, the wind ceased. Those who were in the boat began to worship Jesus saying to Him, “Truly, You are the Son of God”. Jesus walked on the water supernaturally, and Peter tried by faith and failed. Most of us want to walk in the supernatural realm and we think it’s simple. But when the tumultuous winds and waves come, we can’t handle it.
In the natural it is impossible to walk on water, but because Jesus invited Peter, he would have been able to do so if he didn’t look at the conditions in the natural. When the Lord allows us to do something, He will back it up. Some of you have taken your eyes off Jesus, therefore you are not walking in the promises that He has provided for you. We are living in a time when Jesus is inviting us into supernatural encounters. Jesus will prove His undeniable power on your behalf as you submit to Him.
The gifts of the Holy Spirit are going to be so evident in the coming days. Some of you will sense the presence of God as you are reading this to confirm His word. Some of you will receive the gift of discerning of spirits. Your spiritual senses will be activated as you begin to discern spiritual atmospheres around you. Some of you will be reading the Word of God and you will instantly receive revelation from the Holy Spirit. His Word will soon become alive to you, and He will give you the desires of your heart.
Some will be praying and as you wait on The Lord, He will answer. Many of you are going to become tuned to His voice throughout the day. You will recognize when Hes speaking and be able to understand His ways. You will know the authority that He has entrusted to you as you are seated with Christ in heavenly places. You will be able to discern His voice from your own thoughts, motives and intentions. The LORD is inviting you to come and walk on the water with Him. Do not fear but only believe.

Matthew 14:29-32
“So He said, “Come.” And when Peter had come down out of the boat, he walked on the water to go to Jesus. But when he saw that the wind was boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink he cried out, saying, “Lord, save me!” And immediately Jesus stretched out His hand and caught him, and said to him, “O you of little faith, why did you doubt?” And when they got into the boat, the wind ceased. Then those who were in the boat came and worshiped Him, saying, “Truly You are the Son of God,”
John 14:12
Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father.
1 Corinthians 2:14
“But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned,”
Valuable Treasure
Jesus is calling you a "Valuable Treasure" and He wants to use you to accomplish something amazing. You are a valuable treasure, yet to be discovered.
Many prophetic voices will emerge and be raised up from the pit to the palace. Get ready for a promotion.
Before we were even born, He gave us our destiny, that we would fulfill the plan of God who always accomplishes every purpose and plan of His heart
We are about to experience the miraculous provision of God and we will certainly see the glory of the Lord in the land of the living.
The Lord is raising up a mighty army that is equipped with His armor to face any challenge that comes their way.
You cannot judge a tree or a person by only one season and that the essence of who they are and the pleasure, joy, and love that come from that life can only be measured at the end, when all the seasons are up.
