As I was praying for our young people this morning, I saw a vision of a group of families walking, following a lightly-worn trail across a wide open glen. There were not many others around (I believe this refers to the remnant church who have left the walled-in buildings of religion to pursue Jesus outside... Continue Reading →

This morning when I came to pray I asked God to give me a fresh revelation of His love. It's something He and I have been chatting about lately, and I believe is essential for everyone wanting to grow in Him. But the picture He showed me wasn't so much a revelation of His love...

When I came to pray this morning there was nothing obvious on my heart, so I asked God what was on His. Immediately He picked up the theme that we had been chatting about a couple of days ago when He said "YOU come!", and He started speaking some more... "I am calling My Beloved... Continue Reading →

As I came to my Secret Place this morning, I already had an idea of what I wanted to speak to God about. As usual, I got a drink and set my worship playlist to shuffle. But as soon as the first song started playing, God started to speak - before I had even started... Continue Reading →

This subject has been brewing in me for some time, and recently God has brought it to the front of my thoughts.
