The Best That Can Happen

In relation to the war on terrorism, the best that could happen is for all the Islamic terrorists to be converted to Christ and be as radical for Him and impart life, as they have been devoted to taking it. This is going to happen to some of them. Many of the greatest Christian leaders in the last days will come from radical Islamic movements. They will be as fearless and resolute for the gospel as they have been for Islam, and they will help to bring badly needed restoration to the basic spiritual and moral fabric of the church.

Climbing the Mountain Part 3

As we are begin the third year in which I have written this Word for the Week for our Internet friends, I want to do a brief review of its purpose. When given the visions that I wrote about in The Final Quest, I climbed a mountain with different levels, which represented different biblical truths...

The Worst That Can Happen

This bulletin is a brief composite of coming world events that I have been shown prophetically over the last fourteen years, most of which have been published in books, articles, and the MorningStar Prophetic Bulletins. The phrase I believe best describes what I have seen is "These were the best of times, and these were the worst of times." Biblically it seems to be the ultimate fulfillment of Isaiah 60:1-2:

Not Fighting the Wrong Fight

As we have addressed previously, the real battle we are fighting is against fear. The evil one wants to control the world through fear. We must therefore decide that we are going to grow in faith and the peace of God, and that we will not allow our actions to be determined by fear.

The Battle Has Begun

In previous Special Bulletins I felt that it was important to biblically establish how there are different mandates given to the civil government and the church. This is crucial for us to understand if we are to know our own specific purpose in the times ahead.

America Under Attack, Part 3

One word that I started getting on the day of this tragedy was "heroes." It was not until this morning that I began to understand it. A hero is someone who takes decisive action in a crisis. This is what the Lord wants His people to do in this crisis, and every crisis.

I have heard many comment that we are in the first stages of the great tribulation, that the anti-Christ is coming, and since it is prophesied, there is nothing that we can do about it. This is a tragic deception. Let's read what the Lord said about this very thing in Daniel 11:31-32:

America Under Attack, Part 2

Because of the terrible terrorists attacks that came on September 11, which is 9/11, I was impressed to look up Revelation 9:11:

"They have as king over them, the angel of the abyss; his name in Hebrew is

America Under Attack, Part 1

Many have inquired of us regarding what the Lord has said or is saying about this most tragic day in United States history. I will address the relevant words in a very general way now, and in more detail as events unfold. First, I would like to say that we, as Christians, are citizens of a kingdom that cannot be shaken. In the midst of everything like this that happens, we must first focus on the Lord and His unshakable throne in heavenly places.
