Discerning The Times, High-level Intercession, Israel

Dear Intercessors:

Praise our loving God! He is opening up our vision and understanding.

And He is calling us to multiple fronts in our intercessory prayer work.

The discernment team and I are working through a number of discernment issues. This process of discernment takes considerable care and time to get right.

Currently we are preparing Discerning The Times updates and leading intercessory prayer cohorts on several fronts.

I will send out reports for guidance in prayer as soon as we are ready.

Though this is really exciting, we are facing strong head winds in spiritual warfare.

So in the meantime please cover us in prayer.

Now here are three advancements in God’s Kingdom to include in your prayer. [Read more…] about Brad’s New Book and Mountain Top Equipping

A Call To Be On High Alert During This Season of Ramadan, June 6 – July 5, 2016

Discerning The Times

I know I am late on this awareness of the dangers during Ramadan. But two horrendous events woke me up. One on June 6th, when it was reported that ISIS had burned alive 19 Yazidi girls and women who refused to have sex with their ISIS captors.¹ The second was the Islamic terrorist attack at the gay nightclub known as the Pulse in Orlando – killing over 50 people. This took place early in the morning on the 12th of June.

As we seek guidance as to how to pray in response to the horrific Islamic terrorist attacks and to prevent more evil from being unleashed during Ramadan, we need to go to the spiritual roots of this evil.

How To Pray To Prevent Evil From Growing

Discerning The Times

To all who are part of Discerning the Times Prayer Team,

Here is a video that was not ready when I sent out the Discerning the Times last weekend – I felt that speed was of the essence. I hope this will be a reminder to continue praying for God to expose and break the links of chains of events coming together to cause major destruction.

Discerning and Overcoming Strongholds – Session 8A and 8B

Discerning The Times

I started a series of discernment pieces called, Discerning and Overcoming Strongholds in Local Congregations. I was having a really good response to those articles. So apparently this has really touched a place of great concern as well as common experience. I do want to continue with that series.

Actually, I just taught on the topic in England in early July, where I reviewed some of the teaching on this awful topic and then went on to the process of discerning and overcoming some of the strongholds that were blocking congregations and indeed the whole denomination of the PC(USA).

This lecture, given at the Advanced Course on Healing and Deliverance in Northampton, England addresses the urgent question of how do you know you are dealing with evil spirits instead of just human sinfulness. We then moved to the question of what do you do if you are.

Open Doors: how a failure to affirm the singular saving lordship of Jesus Christ at one General Assembly opens the door to spiritual darkness at another.

Discerning The Times

Last week during the 2012 General Assembly, I wrote a response to many of the comments I received from intercessors and participants at the PC (USA) General Assembly. They commented on their sense of the presence of evil and spiritual oppression at the General Assembly in Pittsburgh.[1]

I reported that it was the 2001 General Assembly in Louisville, Kentucky, during which the leaders of the denomination were unable to affirm unequivocally the singular saving Lordship of Jesus Christ. Rather, after more than 3 hours of debate the proposal was made and approved to send the question to a committee for further study.

Some people, particularly newcomers to the national scene, have asked: “How is it possible that this one act of faithlessness could open the door to invite evil power into the denomination?” Remember that officially the church still affirms the Lordship of Jesus. Indeed, even in the reports of that General Assembly, people on both sides of the debate openly affirmed their faith in the Lord Jesus.
