When three Orlando, Florida, women recently set out for their favorite mall, they figured it would be just another shopping trip. And it was—until God invaded and changed their lives forever. While the trio enjoyed lunch in the food court, two of them listened as their friend shared a dream she had the night before. …
Over time, I have discovered that God takes our fears very seriously. We often do not. Most of us have been afraid of the same things for so many years that we almost don’t notice how they’re affecting us anymore—or worse, we choose to ignore them.
This isn’t fear, we may think. I just don’t do that sort of thing. I’m not outgoing enough.
It’s not because I’m afraid of failing. I’ve just decided not to see this through.
I know God doesn’t want me to be afraid of this (person, event, situation), but I am.
Our fears may seem small and insignificant to us, but they aren’t to God. He will often go to great lengths to see that we are delivered from them.
I’ve learned a few lessons in my last 20-plus years of prophetic ministry. Here are some tips to help you avoid mistakes: Don’t allow another person’s insistence and impatience to force you to produce revelation. If you do, you will be offering the person your soulish speculation or personal opinion. Don’t allow yourself to feel …
If you receive a prophetic word, pray about it. Ask yourself: Does the prophetic word “feel” right to my spirit? Does it line up with Scripture? If you receive a “directional word” (a prophetic word that gives some direction for your life such as a job, geographic move or whom to marry), consider the source. …

Our generation is hungry for the paranormal. People everywhere are looking for answers, and their search has led to an obsession with various forms of spirituality that are devoid of God’s light and full of the lies of the enemy—witchcraft, astrology, necromancy, sorcery, spiritism and so on. Many have come to depend on psychics for the answers they seek.
We live in a time when the lost, often unwittingly, “[exchange] the truth of God for the lie” (Rom. 1:25, NKJV). Scripture foretold of this time: “‘For false christs and false prophets will rise and show signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect’” (Mark 13:22).
The misuse of prophecy has brought great embarrassment to the church. It’s time to clean up our act and apply biblical standards.

Editor’s Note: The following prophetic bulletin was originally written by John Paul Jackson, founder of Streams Ministries International (streamsministries.com), in August 2008. He later released it publicly at the prompting of his board—not knowing how relevant it would be at that time. Jackson says of the bulletin: “When I first wrote it, little did I know the events that were soon to happen concerning Todd Bentley, the Gulf hurricanes, Russia’s invasion of Georgia, the trains that would collide near Los Angeles, Sarah Palin’s nomination and the stir that would cause, or September 15th’s stock market plunge. All of these are early elements of what the Lord called ‘The Coming Perfect Storm.’” We reprint the bulletin here in order to give it as wide a circulation as possible. At the end you can click to read Jackson’s comments about dealing with tough times and his list of six things you should keep in mind as you weather the storm.
What we believe in our hearts and speak with our mouths connects us to God’s supply. Faith is a powerful currency in the spiritual realm. If we want to receive anything from God, we must have it. Those who possess great faith enjoy incredible spiritual wealth, while those who suffer in fear live in an …
