The Power of Honor; The Curse of Dishonor

By Francis Frangipane Among all in his era, Noah was the most godly. He alone was considered by the Almighty, blameless. In a time when terrible wrath was about to unfurl, Noah alone found favor with the Lord. Consider this man Noah and what he experienced: Aware that...

The Pathway to Power

By Francis Frangipane A new awakening is coming to the church. It will be birthed by prayer and sheltered by humility, but its power will emerge through compassion. The strength of this fresh move is the deep yearning of the Lord Himself. Yes, even in the midst of...

The Great Prayer

By Francis Frangipane If you believe in Christ, and believe He is the only begotten of the Father, then be assured, Jesus will have all His prayers answered. A time is coming, and now is, when both Heaven and earth shall respond to Jesus’ prayer, “that...

Righteous Judgement

By Francis Frangipane I have urged you, my friends and colleagues, to resist the trends of anger and bitter cynicism that exist in our world today. Instead, we must strive to possess the “higher . . . thoughts” of Christ (Isa. 55:9). In truth, our calling...

In the Furnace of God’s Glory

By Francis Frangipane God’s word assures us that the Redeemer we see in the gospels is the same Lord Who enters our lives when we are born again. The same things Jesus did in the first century, He promises to do again for us today. Indeed, Scripture confirms...

The Divine Pursuit: Stages of Seeking God

By Francis Frangipane The divine pursuit begins with the humbling of self. Until we embrace humility, our natural mind displays itself as a god sitting in the temple of our thought-life. We are ruled by the tyranny of fleshly desires, soulish fears and human...

The Land Beneath Our Feet

By Francis Frangipane I have been asked to unmask the “spiritual power” opposing the body of Christ in a region. City leaders and intercessors have even asked if I knew the “name” of the principle spirit that is resisting the church in their...

Prophet, Priest and King

By Francis Frangipane The Anointing We refer to our Lord as Jesus Christ, but His name, simply, was Jesus (or Yeshua in Hebrew). The term Christ comes from the Greek translation of the Hebrew word for “Messiah,” which meant “the Anointed One.”...

The Real Jesus

By Francis Frangipane Get used to the idea that Jesus is seeking to perfect your faith (Heb. 12:2). Sooner or later, the real Jesus will require you to look straight in the eye of the impossible and believe God for His power. Consider when the Lord sent His disciples...

The Valley of Fruitfulness

By Francis Frangipane The battles we face are often intense times of weakness, distress, and confusion. If the events of our lives were charted, these would be the lowest points. Yet God is no less with us during difficulties than at other times. In fact, these...

Unoffendable, Part 2: Expectations

By Francis Frangipane “Then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. . . . And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold” (Matt. 24:10-12 KJV). The Sequence That Leads to Apostasy In our last...

Unoffendable, Part 1

By Francis Frangipane “I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; and I will remove the heart of stone from your flesh and give you a heart of flesh” (Ezek. 36:26). God has a new heart for us that cannot be offended, an...

Where is the Disciples Cross?

By Francis Frangipane In our modern era we have a different version of Christianity than that which Christ founded in the first century. Our version secures a hope in the afterlife but does little to change us in the present life. We are still as easily offended and...

Conformed to the Redeemer

By Francis Frangipane As Christians, we spend too much time battling basic, elementary battles: “Am I truly saved?” “Am I really forgiven?” “Is there really a heaven?” God has so much more for us. He seeks to form in our...

The Miracle of Life

By Francis Frangipane Without fail, as long as we live in this world, pressures and heartaches will hunt the human soul, often springing upon us when we least expect them. Jesus, too, faced conflicts, but He did so from the perspective of one who lived in the fulness...
