With all of the numerous variations of Apostolic/Kingdom ministry going on, we need to narrow our view, and with focused intent clearly define what it means to be truly apostolic. If we continue to pursue religion-based fellowship and relationship in the same old conventional ways, we too will go by way of the dinosaur. We may as well try to prepare for the next extinction-level event.

There is a voice that calls the Body of Messiah to alignment, intimacy, and purpose. It whispers over division and strife: “Come now, My beloved, walk together in one heart, one mind, and one accord. Let My Spirit flow freely among you. Let love guide your steps.” Acts 2:1–4 provides a glimpse of the power of unity: “When the day of Pentecost had fully come, they were all with one accord in one place… and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit.” Unity is not only relational—it is supernatural. It releases the flow of the Spirit, ignites boldness, and multiplies Kingdom ...

David was not allowed to build the temple, but Yahweh told him that he would build a house for him. David was a man of war and had blood on his hands, so he was not qualified to build the temple. Solomon was allowed to build the temple and the house of David, but he was warned about keeping his heart right and being a man of integrity like his father before him. Neither of them was qualified to build the Father's house because that responsibility was reserved for Yahshua the Messiah.

Holy Spirit has been prompting me to write and speak to what I have been hearing concerning the difference between "Freedom of Religion" and "Freedom of Worship". I believe it safe to say that what we presently believe to be true concerning "Freedom of Religion" is primarily based on a limited understanding of the first amendment of the constitution of the United States of America. This book will be addressing that understanding, and I sincerely hope that it will be something worthy of further consideration.

We are engaged in the conflict of the ages and for the first time in this generation, the sons of the Kingdom are awakening to the reality that the Kingdom has, is, and will continue to come.

The way of family has all but been lost to this generation, and there are several contributing factors that need to be carefully considered. The primary reason for the decline of family in this country is the absence of both fathers and mothers and any real sense of cohesion or continuity with one another.

Holy Spirit is the essence and reality of the person of Yahweh. He is the Spirit of Yahweh and Yahshua come again to those who receive him. Holy Spirit is not "Casper, the friendly ghost" part of God. He is not a holy ghost, a spirit-guide, mantra, or angel. He is the most important person we will ever know, and he is looking forward to connecting, communicating, and collaborating with his sons in the eternal now!

Translation, Transformation, Transfiguration The work of redemption unfolds in divine order. Scripture reveals that salvation is not confined to a single tense, but spans past, present, and future. It is something that has been accomplished, is being worked out, and will be fully revealed. This progression is not confusing when understood through the lens of trichotomy—the biblical distinction between spirit, soul, and body. Our Spirits Have Been Translated At regeneration, the human spirit experiences an immediate and decisive change. We are not gradually rescued from darkness; we are ...

Before the Beginning: Sonship and Purpose Before time was measured, before worlds were framed, before dust knew breath, there was Sonship. The Son was not an afterthought. Redemption was not a reaction. Restoration was not improvised. In the counsel of Elohim, the Son stood as heir, ruler, and expression of the Father’s heart. Creation itself was framed with sonship in view, for sons were always the intended stewards of the earth. When Adam fell, Yahweh did not abandon His purpose—He preserved it. What was lost in Eden was not merely innocence; it was authority, government, and ...

In contemporary Christianity, the words "Church" and "Ekklesia" are often used as if they mean the same thing. However, this assumption overlooks their distinct origins, meanings, and implications. These terms are not synonymous but represent two different concepts shaped by history, language, and theology. "Ekklesia," a Greek word found throughout the New Testament, refers to an assembly or gathering of people called for a purpose. It is rooted in the idea of community and mission, emphasizing the relational and participatory nature of the early Christian movement.

The hour is urgent. The Body of Messiah cannot advance in power and authority without equipping. Believers are drifting, ministries are fragmented, and many are functioning far below their potential. Yahweh is raising up a generation that will walk in the fullness of His design, but this generation must be equipped—prepared, aligned, and sent. Equipping is not optional. It is Kingdom mandate. Without it, teaching remains theory, training remains observation, and gifts remain dormant. With it, the Body is transformed. Every member is positioned, every gift is activated, every joint ...

The earliest Christians were known not simply as believers or adherents of a new religion; they were called Followers of the Way. This title, taken from the words of Jesus Himself who declared, “I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life”, reflected a profound understanding of what it meant to live in relationship with Messiah. To be a Follower of the Way was not merely to agree with a set of beliefs or participate in rituals.

Welcome to Kingdom of Priests: After the Order of Melchizedek, a booklet dedicated to exploring the profound mystery and purpose behind Yahweh’s calling of His people to a royal priesthood that transcends the old covenant. This unique priesthood, established “after the order of Melchizedek,” finds its ultimate fulfillment in Yahshua Messiah, our eternal High Priest, who invites believers into a new covenant relationship.

Rediscovering the Blueprint And they were continually devoting themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to the prayers.— Acts 2:42 The first-century believers didn’t just attend meetings; they lived in a continual flow of revelation, fellowship, communion, and prayer. These four pillars became the rhythm of their existence and the foundation of their effectiveness. They didn’t build ministries—they became one. They didn’t seek revival—they were revival. They didn’t need programs—they had presence. They functioned as the ...

The Cry of the Spirit — “Let There Be No Division Among You” There is a cry rising from the heart of the Spirit in this hour — a call that echoes through the heavens and reverberates in the hearts of those who have ears to hear: “Let there be no division among you.” This is not a suggestion. It is not a gentle encouragement to get along. It is a divine command — a word from the throne that carries the weight of Heaven’s authority. For the King is preparing His Body, His Bride, and His government in the Earth, and He will not build upon the foundation of division. From the ...

The Feast of Ingathering and the last great day is not about world harvest or the second coming of Yahshua. The question in all of our minds should be what ingathering should we be celebrating, and what does the last great day mean to responsible Kingdom Citizens? There is a great spiritual awakening taking place right now. The sons (Huios) of Yahweh are waking up to the reality of who they are in Messiah.

"Sonship is our destiny and our inheritance is wrapped up in discovery"

If we are going to be properly aligned, we must find others at a point of agreement whereby we can begin to embrace one another in the work. The power of agreement is far too important for us to leave to assumption or to relegate to mental assent. The degree to which we agree to be aligned is the degree to which we will form lasting alliances within the Ekklesia. It also speaks of the great need for mature believers and spiritual leaders to begin to come together for His greater Kingdom purpose.

The divine enablement of Yahweh is directly proportionate to the measure of Messiah’s gift operating within us. It is that measure which determines our spheres of influence and Kingdom Jurisdiction.

We are sons of the same Father and brothers of the same family, and we all have a place at the table in the Father's house. We are houses and families who agree with the prayer of Yahshua in John 17:21-26, and who fully embrace the Father's heart concerning our oneness in Ephesians 4:1-6.The Ekklesia and Kingdom are one in every locale and region around the world.
