Book Description
Most people associate visions, and dream as wired and superstitious thing but from the biblical perspective and from my personal experience over a period of an effective time in the ministry, I believe that this supernatural spiritual phenomenon are still authentic now as it was then. Those who believe that life is just about the natural realm where we now live are deceived and need someone to bring them to the dimension of spirituality. In this book I will prove to you how God used visions, revelations and dream to make his word real to me and for me. I believe that some of you who are reading some of these account of what God did in my life have also had your own share of experiences with God. It is important for those who want to grow spiritually to know that God does use Visions, dreams, and revelation as one of his ways of teaching us about who he is and about his words. In other words, no one is that a born again Holy Spirit Christian that will not have an account of a time that God taught them spiritual things through a dream, vision or revelation. If Paul was taught by God through visions, and revelations then the same God who taught him by those means will do the same today. Some may argue that we don't need to get vision, revelations and dreams anymore because we have the written word; but they forget to understand that the bible never said that God was never going to teach us or show us things by visions or revelations or dreams but rather whatever he teaches us by those means ill line up with his word or else it may lead to deception. It is important that I warn people however, that those who walk with God do not go about conjuring for visions, revelations and dreams; this things happens only by the doing of the Holy Spirit if is really of God. Those who go about telling people to pay them so that they will get revelations, dreams, and visions are out of the will of God; people that operate like that are likely false prophets and those who follow such may end in end up not in the gospel but in spiritism instead of true spirituality. Since Christianity is not a cult it is important that visions, revelations, and even dream be from God and not of human making. If those who are believers trust God he will know when it may be necessary to communicate to them by these means. Jesus said that when the Holy Spirit comes he will show us things to come; how is he going to show us things to come without doing so by revelation. Paul the Apostle praying for the Church of Ephesus prayed that God will grant them the spirit of revelation in the knowledge of him. There are two ways to learn from God one is through information from the word and the second is from revelation of his spirit. It is important to know that Christianity is not all about information only it is also about revelations. The word “Apocalyptic” means the hidden knowledge. How are Christians going to deal with apocalyptic events if they have no clue that every knowledge about God and the universe is not all written in the bible; the bible gives us a guideline to c coming to the knowledge of those things and the Holy Spirit reveals them when it is necessary in God's timing. I often ponder when I read the last chapter of the gospel of John. It states: “Jesus did many other things as well. If every one of them were written down, I suppose that even the whole world would not have room for the books that would be written” [John 21:25 NIV].There are no book in the world or library that can contain all the information about God however, God teaches us about these things through vision, dreams and revelations. We now live in a world that believe and only trust in television but the apostles did not have television yet they were able to transact the business of the kingdom of God through heavenly visions. I submit to you that vision is for us today and those who truly walk with God are going to be shown things to come by the Holy Spirit as promised by God.

Book Description
In today's fluid culture, many churches are adrift--longing to reach spiritually thirsty people, but failing to make an impact. Have you noticed? Congregations are stuck or declining. Millennials and Gen Z are walking away. Volunteers and their generosity are drying up. Is your city, town, or neighborhood spiritually dry? Do you long to see more of the living water of Jesus flowing freely through your community, generating a fresh wave of ministry momentum? Buckle up: you're in for a whitewater ride! Liquid Church tells the fascinating story of a New Jersey church that began "on accident" and grew into one of America's 100 Fastest-Growing Churches, with over 5,000 in weekly attendance and more than 2,400 baptisms to date. Their secret? They harnessed the power of six powerful ministry currents sweeping across North America including: special needs, creative communication, ministry mergers, compassionate cause, radical generosity, and leadership development. With powerful stories and scriptural insights, backed by national research, Tim Lucas and Warren Bird describe dozens of fresh ideas, new ministry wineskins, and hard-won leadership learnings that resonate with rising generations in today's "show-then-tell" culture. Each chapter includes practical tools, real-life examples, and links to "Other Churches Making Waves" with cutting-edge ministry ideas designed to help saturate your city for Christ. Ready to dive deeper? Whether you serve a brand-new church plant, fast-growing congregation, or an aging ministry ready for reinvention, Liquid Church is an inspiring and practical guide for leaders ready to reach their spiritually thirsty neighbors--those who have given up on church, but haven't given up on God.

When Jesus made us citizens of the Kingdom, it came with advantages. As members of the kingdom of God, we are eligible to partake of the outpouring of the Spirit. The books of Joel and Acts declare that the direct result of the outpouring of the Spirit of God would be revelation. Men and women could receive and communicate by the Spirit of God; two ways this is done is through dreams and visions. In this book, we will discuss the various aspects of dreams and visions. We will examine the different types of dreams and visions; how to interpret dreams, and how to apply them to our lives.

Book Description
How do I know it's God? is one of the most commonly asked questions of new and mature Christians alike, and the aim of God Conversations is to both equip and inspire the reader and show them that hearing the voice of the Spirit is accessible to everyone who chooses to follow Jesus. Most Christians know that God speaks, yet struggle with how to recognise his voice in their everyday lives. What does God's voice sound like? How do we know if what we're hearing is from God? Stories of God talking to his people abound throughout the Bible, but we usually only get the highlights. We read; "And God said to Joseph; 'Go to Egypt'," and then; "Mary and Joseph left for Egypt." We don't get a blow-by-blow description of how God spoke. We don't receive a detailed explanation of how they knew it was God, and we don't get to see what was going on inside their heads as they acted on what they'd heard. In God Conversations, international speaker and pastor Tania Harris shares insights from her own journey about hearing God's voice. You'll get to eavesdrop on some contemporary conversations with God in the light of his communication with the ancient characters of the Bible. Part memoir, part teaching, this unique and creative collection of stories will help you to recognise God's voice when he speaks and how to respond when you do.
