Winning Him Without Words – or NOT!
Today’s post will mess you up. I’m compelled by the Holy Spirit to bring some clarity to the words: Winning Him Without Words. I’m taking this detour in our posts away from our Holy Spirit theme because as I was on my walk-n-pray I was overcome with God’s righteous anger and His frustration over this…

Pray With Power, Real Power
I’m writing to you on a Sunday afternoon. The rain has been gentle outside. The birds at my feeder are engaged in boisterous tweets as they tussle for the seeds. My exhausted daughter is having a nap and I can hear the crowd noise coming from the family room where my crazed husband watches and…

Living In The Presence
My friends, it is impossible….. It is impossible to stand in the presence of Almighty God and not be changed. Little did three unsuspecting women know what God had in store for us. We stepped out in faith and with a hunger to discover more about God. We were not, WE WERE NOT, disappointed. My…

Was Jesus a Democrat or Republican?
Yep, it’s that time again. Every four years the Presidential politics rise up around our nation and especially around the Donovan house. How about you? I’m daring to talk about politics today because if your house is anything like mine, politics is a deep chasm of which my husband and I stand on opposite sides.…

Who in the Heck ARE YOU?
My friends, Can I just thank you? Last Friday I asked all of you to share about some sensitive and very private concerns in your lives. When I was writing that post I re-wrote it five different times and nearly deleted the entire thing twice because I didn’t believe anyone would leave a comment. I’m…

Does God Have a Ministry For You?
Lynn here: For many, many years I honestly believed that if my husband was not a believer, I could not serve in any ministry. That is a lie from the pit of hell and I want to blow that myth completely out of the water. In fact, today it's my delight to share a new…

Chronicles of the Donovan Clan – Coming To Faith
I have contemplated and prayed, struggled and contemplated about writing about what I’m about to share with you. Why? Because I don’t really understand what to do with it. I don’t know what it means and the implications to this ministry. But, I’m compelled to share with you my tiny story of recent. There are…

We’ve Reached The End. Or Is It Really the Beginning?
My friends, I’m impressed that it’s time to bring our Kingdom Come To Earth series to a close. I truly have so much more to share with you about praying for anointing and about how the Holy Spirit is intricately involved in our worship experience. But, I’m thinking it’s time to leave what we have…

On The Fast-Track – Kingdom Come to Earth
My friends I’m sitting in my tiny office overwhelmed with expectation. I’ve had encounters with God this week that still freak me out. I feel like I’ve been thrust on the fast-track to come up to speed with the Holy Spirit. And next week I’ve asked my friend Janet to share an astonishing encounter with…

After arriving home from Little Rock, I’ve been balancing school meetings, back to school was Wednesday, my son and his girlfriend arrived for a visit, my daughter dropped a quart jar of salsa on her toe, spent the day in urgent care, canned another 10 quarts…

Worship – He’s in the Music
Okay, I’m going to admit that I’ve become a fanatic. I want more. I want more of God’s presence. I want to experience the supernatural to receive God’s glory so I can deliver it with authority. So, guess what I did. I went to church twice. Ahem, yep. Saturday night and then again on Sunday…

Worship With Feathers?????
From this humble writer, I tell you that I woke on Monday morning with anxiety over the post I shared that morning. It can be scary when you write or speak about God’s supernatural. All throughout the night, I prayed. I prayed for you. I prayed for every reader that would stop in and read…

Now Stand Back My Friends and Be Astonished
Now stand back my friends and be astonished. Throughout history God’s divine plan and purpose is to dwell with people. From Adam and Eve to this very day, His passion, His relentless purpose is to share His glory, for us to live in His perfect will and to experience the life of the divine. From…

Where Did It Go?
Part I Part II Part III Part IV I have to say this has been one of the most empowering and purposeful series I have ever participated in. In the comments last week was this: Jennifer said… After much contemplation in these passages, I and my sister have formed an opinion of sorts about King…
