Rooted by the Stream with Dr. Pam Morrison: Recent Episodes
Charisma Podcast Network
Rooted by the Stream is a podcast of encouragement and Spirit-filled insight for new and long-time Christians. Seasoned pastor, Dr. Pam Morrison, shares straight-forward insight and testimonies on becoming an unshakable follower of Jesus Christ. Dr. Morrison has served as pastor for six churches, conducted jail and recovery ministry, is a teacher and practitioner of healing ministry, and the author of "Jesus and the Addict: Twelve Bible Studies for People Getting Free from Drugs."
Have you ever blamed God for things that have happened to you? Been angry with God? That is something that happens often with people if they haven't thought a lot about the causes of events. Something bad happens and they immediately, or even for a long time, believe that God did it. He was out to get them.
But when we really stop to consider the causes of events, when we mature in our faith, we come to realize that we're responsible some of the time for bad things happening. We make bad choices.
Or, others may have sinned against us and made bad things happen to us or our loved ones.
And finally, if we study the Bible, we'll see that a description of satan and evil spirits is given and that is yet another cause for trouble coming to us. There is a supernatural realm of evil which we have to deal with and acknowledge as a cause for bad events.
When we grow up spiritually and grow up in our thinking, we become able to see that God is our help, "our refuge and strength, and ever present help in times of trouble." Psalm 46:1.
He is there for us to bring deliverance out of all our troubles. Psalm 34:6

Grace is a word that people feel they understand, but by their words and actions, it is often clear that they don't. You see them straining and striving for God's approval. Or, you see them feeling too unworthy to be loved or needed by God. Then there is the disapproval and disdain Believers may have for others because of their past lives.
Grace is so important to understand and to live out of when you follow Christ. Therefore, it's a starting place when you are trying to become a more established disciple. You have to understand how God and the Kingdom of God operate. It's "Grace City."
Using Mark 5:1-20 as a foundational text, Dr. Pam talks about God's amazing grace.

What makes a person able to cling to their faith even when faced with danger and death? In this episode the topic of having "faith unshakeable" is reflected upon.
Having visited the Namugongo museum in the country of Uganda, the site of the death of 25 Christian martyrs, Dr. Pam Morrison was deeply moved. The question arises with such a witness, how did they do it? These young men were brutally treated, then murdered because they would not give up their faith in Jesus. What equips a believer to be so strong and so brave?
Three things are offered in this episode of Rooted by the Stream as essential to developing this level of mature faith. In this episode, Dr. Pam lets the listeners know that she will continue to teach on discipleship for the next few months. This episode is offered as an introduction. The teachings will begin September 6, 2023 and will be in both blog and podcast format for the next few months.
Many topics will be covered from grace, healed thinking, marriage and singleness, forgiveness, having a relationship with the Holy Spirit and much more.

Romans 10:17 tells us that faith comes by hearing. There seems to be real importance to speaking words from the Bible out loud, declaring them over our lives, for changing what happens in our lives.
Hearing the Word of God builds faith in us and faith is what is needed by God to work with us and through us.
Faith building teachings from Kenneth Hagin are mentioned in this episode. May you find transformation and healing in your life and thinking.

Was America founded in 1619 with the importation of the first slaves? Is it a hopelessly racist country? This is what the creators of the New York Times 1619 project would have you believe.
Certainly, slavery is a huge blight on America's past, but are they right, that 1619 was our true beginning not 1776?
My guest in this podcast, Dr. Eddie Hyatt, would argue that neither date is actually the moment in which our national character was forged. A Church historian and revival scholar, Eddie says the actual year that would truly shape the American heart and destiny was 1726. It is the year of the beginning of the First Great Awakening in America.
Out of this spiritual revival that swept through the 13 colonies, two things happened - 1) the vision for the nation and its founding documents was greatly touched and shaped by God, and 2) the founders knew they would have to abolish slavery in response to God.
Dr. Hyatt has written a book, 1726: The Year that Defined America. This is an excellent, well-researched, highly acclaimed book about the founding of America, the vision many had for its missionary purpose, and about the faith of the founding fathers. It is uplifting and hopeful in a time when many are denigrating America. It is also a portrayal of American history that is increasingly being left out of our textbooks.
Dr. Hyatt has launched the 1726 Project in an effort to spread the truth about America's history. To reach Dr. Hyatt to have him present three sessions based on his book in your church, school, business, or organization, contact him at DrEddieHyatt@gmail.com.

Many believers have questions about how to have "the anointing," and "how to increase the anointing." "Do I need to do more prayer and fasting?" they may ask. "How much?"
Those who don't move in charismatic communities might even ask, "What is the anointing?"
These are good questions. Being anointed to do the work of Christ makes that work go so much more easily and be so much more fruitful. Flowing with God is far more desirable than straining in your own strength.
This is a podcast about the spiritual practices that increase the power of God working through us. I mention verses about the baptism of the Holy Spirit (and also a little about the gifts of the Spirit) for further study. Here they are:
Matthew 3:11, Mark 1:8, Luke 3:16, John 1:33, Acts 1:5, 1:8, 2:1-4, 8:14-17, 9:10-19, 1 Corinthians 12:1-11, 14:1-19
There are certainly more verses about the Holy Spirit throughout the Bible. Studying them along with studying all the healing stories of Jesus will prepare you for greater anointing and fullness with God.

Hebrews 12:1 tells us that the way we're going to be able to run OUR race is to "throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles."
I think we get the idea of the need to rid ourselves of sin. That's a basic moral idea. But, what hinders us from moving forward in life? Often it's our "regrets and remorse," as author Mimika Cooney says, "our poor thinking and attitudes."
Mimika Cooney is the author of a new book which will be released in early May. It's called "Unstick Your Mind: Shift Your Mindset, Develop Grit, and Break Barriers." As a "personal trainer for your mind, Mimika says, "Unsticking the mind is one of my favorite topics."
She loves to help people see that they are not stuck in a certain way of thinking or reacting - like they never can rid themselves of resentment, moodiness, excessive sadness, or a sense of not being capable. With the help and healing of Jesus and with the decision to press through the discomfort of change, we can become new. "We can turn from being victims to being victors."
Mimika's website will get you connected with her books, blogs, her YouTube channel and so many more wonderful resources to help you.

Need Fresh Hope? 9 Ways to Encourage Yourself in the Lord
Because of the outbreak of revival at Asbury University, other colleges, and in different nations around the world, people are wondering what characterizes true revival. They also question, "Can these pockets of revival last and will they spread?"
This is a message of hope that God can bring more revival, in fact, a next Great Awakening, in the United States and in other nations of the world no matter how bad conditions may look to you. There has never been an era without sin and depravity. Nevertheless, God breaks in many times as we cry out to Him.
Look up and be encouraged by this message of hope.

Are you someone who has had an illness for a long time? Do you love someone who has been chronically sick? Perhaps you have prayed. You have had whole groups of people praying.
This happens to more than a few of us. It happened to my husband who suffered from cancer 15-16 years. He has just been declared "cancer free." We have prayed, taken communion, had groups and groups of people praying for him. But, we went through years with no relief from cancer until now. When that happens, why does it happen? How shall we think about our relationship with God?
This is an episode full of joy and encouragement. We are PRAISING God for His incredible, constant, and awesome goodness. The years of enduring cancer proved to be very fruitful. We came through VICTORIOUS.
God will sustain you in whatever hardship you find yourself and you'll be able to say, "The Lord is my Shepherd (too)...Surely goodness and mercy will follow me all the days of my life. (Psalm 23)

The chapel at Asbury University in Wilmore, Kentucky is filled with worshippers. It has been for days. Revival has broken out. Students are even bringing mattresses so that they might sleep in the Hughes auditorium. No one wants to leave the manifest, tangible presence of God.
Worship is spontaneous. One team plays for a while, then others come to take their places so that the music and prayer do not cease. People are coming from hours away as the news is spreading swiftly across social media. How hungry so many of us are to feel more of God with us.
What are the hallmarks of true revival because sometimes people can simply get carried away with emotion and from being in a crowd. When God is truly there in the unique way of a revival there is nothing sweeter and that is what should be pursued.
This is a podcast about the Asbury University revival, but also about revival in general. Come, Holy Spirit. We need You.

Discipleship is what comes after putting your belief in Jesus. But it is a neglected part of Christian life. Sometimes people can feel they've been left floundering on their own, not knowing what to do next, how to study, pray, or grow.
Therefore, we need to talk more about it and set up thoughtful ways in which to walk with people.
This podcast is a discussion of the "new responsibilities" that come from turning to Christ. He enables us to immediately "walk" with Him and serve Him even as we are growing. But what explicitly does a follower of Jesus do? Is there a succinct passage of scripture that describes the new life Christ gives. The answer is yes and you can find it in this podcast.

A friend of mine went through a season of tremendous attack within the Church. But God was faithful and brought him through it.
What do you do when suddenly you seem to have many human enemies, trying to pull you down with gossip and the manipulation of other people's attitudes towards you. Feeling alone and under attack can make you want to take matters into your own hands and fight back.
But how should we see the situation with spiritual eyes? And what is God up to when we're suddenly "surrounded by enemies?"
This podcast is a guide for anyone under attack as to how to endure and have victory over the personal attacks.

All of us struggle with feelings of defeat at times. The way gets too hard. Too many challenges are in front of us or we feel like we have failed in some way.
It isn't God's desire for us to remain in this state of mind. Scripture has many stories of people who failed or who felt like failures, but God had a different view of them. One of the classic pictures of our perspective on things colliding with God's is when Gideon was hiding in a winepress threshing wheat, because his people felt so scared of and defeated by the Midianites.
The angel of the Lord appeared to Gideon and said, "Hello, mighty warrior." Gideon, in his own eyes, was no mighty warrior. He was a hiding out coward at that moment. But, God called him out of it and into the one he would become with God's aid. God can and will do the same for us.
This is a podcast about defeating defeat!

When Jesus encounters each of us and we put our faith in Him, He does a marvelous thing. He utterly transforms us. He doesn't improve our life. He takes us from death to life, from being sinner to being saint. We're given new identity, new purpose, and new power. Because of Him, we become finally capable of really loving others and ourselves. This is the good news of the gospel. Freed from sin and death, in Christ, we become set for eternal life.
Many people do not know this. They need to hear the gospel and experience relationship with Jesus. Some of them are in churches and do not realize they haven't crossed over from death to life. There is a real urgency to share the good news of Christ. We're called to be His witnesses to a hurting world. He gives us the new identity to enable us to do that.

Fear is a troubler of a lot of people. Frightened by the present and the future, personal circumstances as well as global situations, they live life well below the level God wishes for them to live. A life bent by fear results in decisions and actions that are not constructive.
But, we can be free of fear. In many scriptures there is the promise of deliverance from fear. Since it's such a common human emotion, how do we get free of fear? This podcast episode addresses the pathway to freedom.

Sometimes it feels difficult to celebrate Christmas. The difficulties and even tragedies in our own lives may settle over us with gloom. The national and world events may seem to grow in darkness. A week ago, we attended the funeral mass of a friend who died way too soon and at this time, of all times. Can we overcome the world and still find ourselves singing, "Joy to the World?" I believe we can.
Using the Nativity account from Luke's gospel, this podcast focuses on God's awareness and blessing of the "cast of characters" in the Christmas story. At the end of this podcast is the account of a pastor from Australia who was taken to heaven. Prior to God's sudden blessing of him, he felt defeated and forgotten. But now, all is different. This can also be your life. God wants to bless you and I pray your fresh encounter with Him will come this Christmas.

It is part of our lives as people to encounter betrayals. We all know what it is to have moments of rejection, hurt, and abandonment. But, how do we recover from that pain? How do we walk away from perhaps feeling extremely angry and wanting to get even? Jesus knew betrayal in His life. Ultimately, He felt utterly abandoned and alone on the cross surrounded by those who mocked and tortured Him. He understands our pain. And because He understands and is God, He can bring healing and freedom back into our lives. Jesus Heals. That is the name of a series that begins with this podcast.

Habits, addictions, and attitudes can have a stranglehold on our lives. They are what is called strongholds and it can seem impossible to get rid of them. But that is not true. You can get free even if you have struggled for a long time. In this podcast, I give the testimony of a friend who had a drinking problem for decades, but she got free of alcohol. She was motivated by a scary episode of physical pain that made her question the danger her habit put her in. She is now alcohol free and has been so for a year. You can lose your strongholds too.
In this episode, I mention the Spiritual Warfare Bible as a good resource for "doing war" against bad habits and attacks of the enemy of our souls. You can find this Bible on Charisma by going here.
Derek Prince suffered from depression but found freedom once he realized it was a spirit that was plaguing him. Not every instance of heaviness and sadness has an evil spirit at the center of it. But people hunger to know more techniques for coping with and rising out of the pit of sadness. This podcast is about coping with the spirit of heaviness; sadness and depression during the holidays, and a spiritual coping mechanism for rising above our heartaches.

"The longest distance is the 18 inches between the head and the heart," someone once said. What they meant is that we sometimes have ideas about God and the world that keep us from having a childlike faith in our hearts. In our brains are facts about God, perhaps, but also there are blockers - like doubt, painful experiences, disappointment, and negative feelings - that keep us from trusting God in a simple and fervent way.
In this podcast episode, there is a brief audio tape portion from author, podcaster, and co-founder of Spirit Fuel, Joel Yount. Joel gives a pathway and prays for the audience in regards to restoring a child like faith. Jesus said having this type of faith is the only entry point into the kingdom of heaven so this is vital information.

Are you suffering now? Is someone you love in a huge storm of life? Trying to walk forward in times of hardship can seem impossible. Yet, with God, all things are possible. He is the "fourth man in the furnace" - if you remember the story of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, three young men who were sentenced to die by burning as told in the Book of Daniel - when viewed in the fiery furnace, there was a fourth man with them. It was the Lord. He is the fourth man in all of the "fiery furnaces" of life that we go through.
This is a podcast about enduring suffering and doing it in triumph. If you need hope and encouragement, it is in these words. A woman who endured great suffering and who now encourages others is mentioned in the podcast. Her name is Wendy Wallace. If you want to visit her website, you can find it here.

When we stop and consider the implications of the Gospel, it can "take our breath away," to think about the vastness of the love of God for us.
The cross of Christ is the greatest emblem of love ever revealed to humanity. God so loved the world that He sent His only Son.
How do we get so we respond to the world as Jesus did to us? I think of a church leader who once said, "I love God and I love to worship, but I can't stand the people." Maybe somewhere in your heart, there still lingers disdain for certain types of people with certain types of needs. Would you like to see that hardness in your own heart finally go away?
This podcast is all about that - the love of God, the depth of that love shown in the cross, and you becoming more deeply made in the image of God.

Author Traci Rhoades shares about her newest book, Shaky Ground: What To Do After The Bottom Drops Out. We all go through times where pressure and heartache can be unbearable. How do spiritual practices sustain us? Are there practices from traditions different from our own that might be wonderful tools to have?
In her trademark way, Traci continues to explore Church in this new book. She is known by her openness to experience Jesus Christ and encounter with Him by "trying" out the spiritual ways of Christians different from her home church. Her point in this book and in this podcast is that Jesus told us we would have trouble in this world (John 16:33) but in Him we CAN have peace despite the trouble. Spiritual practices keep us connected to Him.
Traci can be found at tracesoffaith.com and on Twitter @tracesoffaith.

God's redemption of us holds this beautiful gift. We can then turn around and help others, experiencing even more healing through giving.
Ervin Lee, host of the From Beer to the Bible podcast, along with Sarah Oliveria-McDonald, is my guest today. Ervin "functioned" with hidden alcoholism and worked as a dynamic businessman. Eventually, his world toppled and he admitted that he needed help.
You'll hear his story and how God brought him around to being a strong man of God, an author, a podcast host, and entrepeneur.
Nothing is impossible with God. He can turn around the most hopeless of situations, and rescue those who seem completely lost. Ervin's show From Beer to the Bible can be found here.

Dr. Stella Immanuel "was thrust into the limelight, making global news for her appearance in front of the Supreme Court steps in what became a viral video addressed to the American people. Dr. Stella and several other brave doctors, called out the political and medical establishment for their efforts to suppress life saving Covid treatments. Many point to this day as a watershed moment in the resistance to the Covid mandates." (from Dr. Stella's media info)
Dr. Stella, in this podcast episode, speaks about safe and effective treatments for Covid, including hydroxychloroquine and Ivermectin, that became the subject of ridicule and yet were so effective in countless lives. She talks about their usage in west Africa where malaria is endemic and the surprising much lower statistic for Covid deaths in that area.
The effort to suppress information about alternative treatments is more than a medical tug-o-war. It is part of a spiritual battle for the direction of this nation and the nations of the world. This is a podcast episode that addresses medicine, politics, faith, the end times and more. Dr. Stella offers her perspectives on these issues to give you strength and awareness for the times in which we live.

One of the challenges to having a robust, vital faith is the "hard knocks" of life. We get discouraged, disappointed, and then, the possibility exists to pull away from God.
But, we must dig our heels in and say, "No matter what I see, God is good." Declaring this heart attitude, believing in God's goodness, makes possible an exit from troubles with our faith intact.
This is a previously released podcast. I am in Cuba with pastor and missionary friends and will return in a week with a fresh podcast.

Many hunger to have greater power expressed through their ministry, but go after it in ways that may not increase the signs, wonders, and miracles they long for. How did such power flow through Jesus? Of course, He was and is God who came to us in the flesh, but even so, what can we see about the way He approached people that might be life-changing for us, His followers?
In this episode, the story of Jesus' encounter with the widow of Nain is described and the Jesus way of approaching people in great need.

Walter Beuttler was a Bible college professor - and so much more. He was a man with a ministry to the nations for several decades. What was remarkable about him was his ability to sense the presence of the Lord and interact with Him. Because of this sensitivity, he and his students experienced many powerful visitations to his classroom.
But was this capacity to encounter the Lord only for Walter, a man now deceased and unavailable to teach more generations of students? Or, is it something the Lord would love for so many more of His people to have?
This podcast is about increasing your capacity to experience in a tangible way, the presence of the Lord. It is about finding greater intimacy with the Spirit.

In Acts 20:7-12 there is a brief story of a resurrection. The Bible holds many stories of resurrections, but this one is not talked about that often.
Hear about all God did in the amazing event of bringing someone back to life, and who it is that He worked through. If you wonder about your worthiness to move in signs and wonders, this podcast will encourage you to believe big for what God can do in any life.
And if something is dead or dying in your life, over which you lament, this podcast is also to build hope in your heart.

People need encouragement to keep going in these difficult times. They need instruction in how to lay down sin and discouraging emotions/memories, etc. A wonderful passage for showing us how to lay these things down is found in Hebrews 11 through the opening of Hebrews 12. Then we, too, can be bold heroes of the faith.
In this passage, we find the way to run our race with great power and fruitfulness which is possible even when times are very hard. With the Spirit of the Lord in us, we can do all things in His name.

A number of surveys of Americans are showing that Americans feel despondent, are losing hope; their wages are being overshadowed by the growing cost of living, violence is increasing in cities, and they feel that political conflict is growing.
President Biden recently gave a speech about the "Soul of the Nation." Unfortunately he chose to demonize half the nation's citizens as extremists and a "threat to democracy."
For those who feel targeted by his words, what should be your response? Some fear he is trying to provoke an extreme reaction. But, so many to whom he is pointing happen to be Christians. How does Jesus want us to respond to people who make us into enemies?
This is a podcast about following Jesus when we are in the presence of those who have made us enemies.

Around the world are humble people, many gathering in small homes, under trees, some in hidden places - all to worship Christ. As they labor, without resources, sometimes in much persecution, it could be easy to wonder, "Does God see? Does He know and care?"
This podcast is about the precious good news that our Good Shepherd has His eye on us all. The God of Israel never slumbers, never sleeps as it says in Psalm 121.
"The sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon by night. The LORD will keep you from all harm - he will watch over your life; the LORD will watch over your coming and going both now and evermore."

Are you convinced God will move on your behalf? In a big way? What are your expectations where God is concerned? I'm convinced I could think bigger and I believe that's true for many of us who say we have faith in God.
This podcast episode is about getting a bigger, higher, more consistent view of the goodness of God and of His ability to provide for His children. Paul's prayer in Ephesians 3:16-21 was this: "I pray that out of His glorious riches He may strengthen you with power through His Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith."
"And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the Lord's holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to KNOW this love that surpasses knowledge - that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.

"Most men lead lives of quiet desperation," is a line attributed to the philosopher, Thoreau. Many people do suffer enormously in silence because they fear the judgment of others.
Nowhere is this more true than among the mothers (and fathers) of addicts, those parents who agonize as they see their children descend into a horrible pit.
Kathryn Inman is the author of a new book which is receiving such glowing reviews. Her book is called Counting Spoons: A Memoir of Heroin, Heartache, and Hope.
This podcast is an interview with Kathryn. It is for all the hurting families of people trapped in addiction. There is hope. Jesus can and will save.

When the woman touched the hem of Jesus' garment, she was healed physically, mentally, spiritually, socially - it was a total healing of her as a human being.
At times, when we hear of people being healed from addiction, if never having come in contact with this affliction, people may be quick to bypass their story. But, people who are set free from addiction are like the woman described in the gospels with the 12 years of bleeding in which she lost everything.
That disease made her unclean, kept her from community, "emptied her wallet," etc. People in addiction are like she was. Those who love addicts often experience not only thwarted efforts at trying to help their loved one, but they may have great financial loss, emotional loss, and even know physical violence.
Overdose is now the leading cause of death for those between 18 and 45 years old. This is not a niche problem, the concern of a minority. It is a major national tragedy and a further reflection of the spiritual disease that is afflicting America - and many people around the world.
The Church has a huge role to play in the healing of sick people - and addicts are sick. But many churches do not want to connect with people ill with addiction. "They should get help somewhere else," is the attitude.
Today's program is an interview that was previously done with a woman named Jessica Sanders. Jessica struggled with drugs and jail for 15 years. But, through relationship with Jesus Christ, she walked away from her illness and her past. She touched Jesus and became brand new.
This is the story of her life and her freedom found through Christ alone. If you are addicted, there is hope for you. If you are the parent or another loved one with an addicted family member, there is hope for you and for them. If you are a church member considering recovery ministry, step out and do it. You will be part of saving countless precious and beautiful lives like Jessica's.
New episodes will resume on August 16, 2022.

My dear friend, Pastor Tom Langhofer, has endured some experiences that could have broken him down completely. For many years, he used alcohol to cope. But Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life, and finally Tom truly met Him and found escape.
This interview was previously aired, but as I take a short break, for 3 weeks I am releasing it again along with two other testimony interviews. I know you will find them to be very powerful. When first aired, this episode was simply called "Rescued" because that is what Jesus did with Tom, He rescued him.
On August 16, season 2 of Rooted by the Stream will begin, and fresh episodes will begin airing that day.

Bobbi Jo Reed, Founder and Director of the Healing House Addiction Recovery community was my guest in 2020. Her own story of street life and addiction to drugs is shocking. Her story was captured in an award-winning documentary called, Under the Influence, that was released after our interview.
Bobbi Jo started the Healing House community with one old run-down home in the inner city of Kansas City. You will hear in this interview how the number of properties and the vision for this community has grown over the years.
This November 2022, there will be a grand celebration of the remarkable ministry provided by this community and of the thousands of lives saved and transformed.
This podcast and two other previous podcasts will be re-shared in the next three weeks, as I take a short break, and then new recordings will start up again on August 16, 2022. I hope you will be touched by the testimonies and the power of the deliverance of Jesus Christ in the life stories shared.

There's such a mix of words out there about miraculous healing. Some mock it saying it's all flim flam. Others can tell you a heart-rending story of how Christians ministering to them in the name of Jesus saved their life. What does the Bible say?
The Bible shows us a powerful connection between heaven and earth as Jesus ministered, and as His disciples ministered. Matthew 4:23-25 tells us that,
"Jesus went throughout Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, proclaiming the good news of the kingdom, and healing every disease and sickness among the people. News about him spread all over Syria, and people brought to him ALL who were ill with various diseases, those suffering severe pain, the demon-possessed, those having seizures, and the paralyzed; and he healed them. Large crowds from Galilee, the Decapolis, Jerusalem, Judea, and the region across the Jordan followed him."
This account is marvelous. Jesus healed all - and not just of minor things but those with major things - demon possession, paralysis, and seizures.
The stories of healing by Jesus are incredible and fill the gospel accounts, but there is more. The disciples received this anointing through their discipling with Jesus and by the baptism of the Holy Spirit. They carried on the same healings and miracles.
Was that just for that time? What does scripture say about it? In this episode you will hear stories from Acts 28 and what the events in that final chapter of the Book of Acts mean for you and me today as we seek to be healed and to heal in Jesus' name.

Last week I had the honor of being one of the preachers at the Rekindle the Flame Conference in Athens, Georgia. This conference is sponsored every year by Rick Bonfim Ministries. Rick, an evangelist, is originally from Brazil but has lived in the US since his teens. He is a powerful man of God. It is a powerful conference.
I spoke about what I feel God is bringing in this time - the capacity to know Him more intimately and encounter Him more tangibly and consistently. For those who hunger for this, this is your time. It has nothing to do with being well-educated, famous, or equipped with lots of spiritual training (degrees). It is for the ordinary man, woman and child.
An outpouring of the Spirit is coming like you've never seen or experienced, I believe. And those who will receive it will have a particular heart posture. This episode is about that. You will hear about what's coming and you will hear about getting ready for it. Rejoice, for it is God's good heart to pour out His Spirit on all flesh in these last days. His Word says so.
On the Bobby Conner Facebook page, this was recently posted. "This is a season of sensitivity, and if we seek Him, we will find the Lord in a much deeper and more intimate way." I believe this too.
"You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart." Jeremiah 29:13

Hunger to have our nation ripple with revival from coast to coast fills many hearts. How can we help in God's sovereign move to draw us back to Him? Is it still possible?
Studying historic revivals shows us certain patterns. The Bible has a verse considered a classic for revival: "if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land." 2 Chronicles 7:14
Obedience, prayer, and the unity of believers seem to be forefunners of any revival. Is there more that we can do though God is the author and sustainer of revival? What is our role as we cry out, "Father, revive us again?"
This is a meditation on what America can do, but the same call to action spoken of in this episode applies for nations throughout the world. God bless America. God bless the nations of the world.

Experiencing the living Jesus in power and frequency is not just for the spiritual "big league," the people who fill stadiums and publish countless books. It is for anyone who loves and seeks the Lord. Jesus said, "Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and eat with him and he with Me."
That invitation is for men, women, and children to encounter Jesus and know Him as friend. We can have these experiences of encountering the manifest presence of Jesus and have them often. This episode's topic is about how you can encounter Jesus personally and often.
Walter Beuttler was a German born Bible college professor who "personally knew and walked with the Lord as few have." That is a quote from the back of his book, The Manifest Presence of God: My Spiritual Journey. He wrote about his experiences with the Lord to tantalize his students and everyone else whose life he impacted, to also seek the intimate, personal encounters available with Jesus. His "testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy." Rev. 19:10
Walter travelled to many, many nations to share his experiences of the manifest presence of Jesus and of receiving divine guidance. Some of his experiences are shared in the podcast.
But we are moving into an era where this knowledge of God will be commonplace, I believe. With the great outpouring of the Spirit that is and is coming, many, many people will know what it is to walk with Jesus face to face. Let us prepare and anticipate!

From his grandmother's healing in Kathryn Kuhlman's meetings to his own present day prophetic ministry, Prophet Bill Yount has been led by the Holy Spirit.

As one who frequently blows the shofar in meetings, Bill blows his shofar in this podcast and has words of hope for families with prodigal loved ones.
