There is a shift in how we cooperate with Father to build the Kingdom. Servants are still shifting to sons, but it ripples through how we hear from God and process Father’s guidance. So here are the two primary streams: charismatic servants is our tradition and...

Decree – What is in hearts shall be known and read of all men; it’s a jailbreak! Our religious tradition is that what is in my heart is so corrupt that it should be hidden. This decree releases two things: Secrets in men’s hearts are being revealed (accusations in the...

It is in all our hearts to be part of what God is doing and contribute and be part of the action. When we thought there was only one mountain, it led to a form of pulpit idolatry where everyone wanted a microphone ministry. Now that we understand 7 mountains, we...

One of the challenges of Kingdom Business is staying ahead of problems rooted in spiritual warfare. Bill Hybels pastored a 24,000 member church, Willow Creek in Chicago, and Brian Houston pastored Hillsong in Australia. Both were vital leaders and household names who...

The enemy has a strategy that is gradually being exposed. We can see enemy devices and strategies (graphic and Clay Clark interview). I’ve been asking the Lord to show us His strategy as this exposure has happened. We are all anxious to see the evidence of God moving....

Rick and Holly started hosting Kingdom Leadership Workshops five years ago in response to the businesspeople from around the world who showed up at the door asking how they did it. Those three-day events occur three times a year, and the next step is called Kingdom...

We each have responsibilities (burdens) to carry that belong strictly to me (Gal. 6:5). But, each of us has responsibilities to help discern and carry our brother’s purpose (burden, Gal 6:2). Yes, but how? There is a kingdom shift toward sons with purpose right now....

Staff attrition is always a source of discouragement and profit erosion for a business owner. Not surprisingly, it feels like a relational and strategic betrayal when a senior leader moves on. Why did it happen? Why couldn’t I see this coming? You can; we’ll explain...

A Picture of the Council We’ve all heard that “God has a wonderful plan for your life.” Most believers can’t tell you what it is beyond the pablum of religious generalities (evangelism, missions, Kingdom). The theological paradigm looks like blindfolded believers...

If your purpose adds value, then people, money, and God’s favor will come and help you! Businesspeople are often “too busy” to nail their prophetic purpose. Their leadership is not particularly inspiring, and they are prone to rely on personal authority to motivate...

I recently got this comment from a good friend and thought it was very instructive: John, clearly, your perspective is that the Council is located in a spiritual realm, apart from us – “heaven.” What if the real location of the council is “in God” who is in you? See...

Now that you are a partial preterist (free from rapture theology with the devil conquering earth). What are the next prophetic steps/events that inspire you? What is the joy set before you practically, in this life? What is on your plate from Father, before you go...

We all got saved via an experience with Jesus. We came from a very rational, intellectual space disconnected from our hearts and God. Then, we experienced Jesus in a way that doesn’t lend itself to explanation or need to. Yet, surprisingly, many believers who start...

I reread Harold Eberle’s revision of Victorious Eschatology, 2021, and had lunch with him yesterday. We’re on the same page, so our conversation flowed freely. I hadn’t focused on Revelation or Biblical prophecy for some time and this week’s experience left me...

One of the impacts of sons going to the council is getting exposed to the Father’s heart. God’s Kingdom gives us a balance between the desire of my heart and the desires in God’s heart. Father is concerned about the desires of your heart (Ps. 37:4), but there are also...
