The Source of Our Courage
The resurrection of our Lord gives us courage to go the distance!
Knowing His love and resolve to suffer for us gives us the courage to do the same for Him. He suffered great pain, but no lasting injury. Death was trounced by our victorious Lord!
The resurrection is the Christian’s triumph and store of courage. Because of Him, we can go face to face and nose to nose with death. We declare:
“If the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you.” (Romans 8:11)
We Serve the Living God
We serve THE LIVING GOD!
Nebuchadnezzar acknowledged:
“He is the living God, enduring forever; his kingdom shall never be destroyed, and his dominion shall be to the end.” (Daniel 6:26)
Jeremiah proclaimed:
“But the Lord is the true God; He is the living God and the everlasting King. At his wrath the earth quakes, and the nations cannot endure his indignation.” (Jeremiah 10:10)
Imitation gods are useless. Only the Living God can impart life, and the wisdom and power to live it!
Simon Peter by revelation confessed:
“You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” (Matthew 16:16)
Psalm 56:9 adds the comfort of knowing this Living God is our Advocate standing for our best:
“One thing I know. God is for me!”
So we have a Living God who is pulling for us. He is in favor of our welfare and positively working for us, and in us.
The Promise of Life
What a promise our Redeemer grants us! “Because I live, You will live also!” When death in its various forms comes knocking, we counter, “My Lord Jesus lives! And because He lives, I also live!”
If our Lord can conquer death, and He can, all the rest is small stuff! Piddly little problems like the car breaking down, crop failure, treachery, and terrorism may happen, BUT Jesus is alive!
Putting Problems in Perspective
Make a list of all the challenges and contrast them to Jesus’ victory over the grave.
- It’s cold and windy, but Jesus is alive!
- I lost my computer file, but Jesus is risen!
- Nuclear bombs are popping, but Jesus lives to make intercession for me!
- Persecution, the mail coming late, and the sliver in the finger find their proportion when compared to our living Jesus, our Advocate, standing for our total welfare!
Take Courage!
If you want courage, you can come to our living Jesus and take it this very moment. He said:
“In the world you have tribulation. But take courage! I have overcome the world.”
“Fear and anxiety are contagious, so are boldness and courage. Which contagion do you carry?”

PLEASE SEE BELOW OUR VERY EXCITING ANNOUNCEMENT!
REVELATIONCONNECTIONS.VISION – A NEW WINESKIN FOR NEW WINE!
Samuel Morse’s first long-distance telegraph message sent in 1844 asked, “What hath God wrought?” I feel like the Lord has given a creation with similar impact in the engineering of a powerful web communication tool at “RevelationConnections.Vision.” It’s a new wineskin for new wine.
Thirteen years after conception we have a birth, and it’s time to show the baby! It is the biggest project I have ever worked on, and I feel a jittery excitement! This tool will revolutionize the way millions of listeners communicate their dreams, visions, and prophetic impressions! It will serve every saint and Christian ministry!
God Speaks Through Dreams and Visions
I interview people in hardware and grocery stores, at the gym and farm store with this question: “Has God ever spoken to you through a dream, a vision, or a prophetic impression?” Almost invariably I get an affirmative. Often I hear astonishing stories! You also have stories where God has uniquely spoken to you.
Now you have an opportunity to share your revelation experiences with saints in Chile, Botswana, and Georgia! You will also be able to perform complex thematic searches of revelations saints are having in Turkey, Iceland, and Papua New Guinea.
Welcome to a monumental puzzle party revealing the beautiful face of our Lord Jesus Christ and His now-message for the worldwide Church! The implications have earth-shaking import! As you learn about it, you will want to be involved!
The Goal of Revelation Connections
Revelation Connections’ goal is to connect Christ’s Body by enabling saints in every country to communicate and discover what the Holy Spirit is saying to the worldwide Church.
Using advanced technologies, believers post their heaven-born revelations in a great database. Saints around the world then search the posts of others to discover divine intelligence, complementary themes, insights, and practical directions, many of which will lead to collaborative ministry.
We are building a highly searchable concordance of The Church’s worldwide depository of contemporary revelations. Jesus prophesied:
“For there is nothing hidden that will not be disclosed, and nothing concealed that will not be known or brought out into the open.” (Luke 8:17)
This means God’s hidden glory is to be fully revealed! It means all people’s actions, thoughts, and motives will be brought into the open.
Advanced Search Capabilities
Powerful search engines perform multifaceted topical searches for names, locations, times, words, and phrases, linking believers internationally to communicate and discover what the Holy Spirit is now disclosing and bringing out into the open.
Get strapped in and feel the G’s! You have things to discover and things to share. Don’t hold back. Jesus’ high-priestly prayer was, “Let them be one.” The result of oneness is the revealed glory of God! This communication tool is part of the answer to that prayer.
