This morning, I sat down to start in on my morning ritual with my cup of coffee, my bible, and my book of prayers. My mind has been distracted by the national news and world news in light of bible prophecy. I sat down and hugged my bible and began to cry for the lost […]

Today the Lord wants to speak to the one who may be carrying the weight of guilt in denying his name before men. When Jesus went to the cross, Peter stayed behind and denied knowing Jesus 3 times. You can read the full passage of scripture in Luke 22:54ff. In Matthew 26:34 prior to Jesus […]

So, one of the roads leading to our house is Gould. The name Gould came from gold and was a nickname for someone with fair or golden hair. When I first drove it, I said to myself, “Streets of Gould” thinking the the street of gold described in heaven in Revelation. This morning the Lord […]

Last night we had terrible storms roll through north Texas. There were lots hail cores and very strong winds. We have just relocated and the four streets of our block are prophetic as it relates to the call on my life and family’s purpose. It was no surprise when the storms rolled in and the […]
