Ten days ago I started a word study on 'basileia' - the Greek word for 'Kingdom' - looking into every verse that mentions it in the Bible. It is used 163 times in the NT - it took me ten days to complete, and has radically changed my thinking. The study came after several months... Continue Reading →
The Tension before Release
Four weeks ago I released a post called "The Pressure before the Breach", about where we are in time, feeling like we're about to burst and release revival in all its glorious, messy chaos.This morning I felt a prompt to write again along very similar lines, and it came after a few individual encounters.

The Pressure before the Breach
This one's for you prophets who have been feeling the intense pressure of the moment... I've been feeling it too.
