By Francis Frangipane Being the habitation of God is a spiritual reality for every follower of Christ. It is your destination. There must be a constant hunger and thirst within, not just on a Sunday morning or in scattered moments throughout your day. You have been...

By Francis Frangipane Death of Ambition When I first came to Christ, the Lord gave me a dream about my future. I thought that everything the Lord said was supposed to occur immediately; I didn’t know of the work of preparation and dying to self, of learning...

By Francis Frangipane Beware of a Passive Spirit Scripture contains many examples of David’s valor. As a young man, for instance, while others trembled, David was ready and eager to face Goliath. David is an example of one whom God chose, whose passions for God...

By Francis Frangipane Within the boundaries of the physical universe there is perhaps nothing so accessible to the spiritual realms as music. It is a bridge media, capable of transporting the human soul through the invisible gateways of time and space. Indeed, who...

By Francis Frangipane Jesus’ walk was neither painless nor effortless, and yours will not be either. Perhaps our minds cannot envision the Son of God facing any “real problems,” such as we face. We know He calmed the sea, but we are also told He...

By Francis Frangipane When the Scriptures refer to the “heavenly host,” we usually think of “choirs of angels.” The word “host” in the Bible meant “army” (Josh. 5:13–14). It is an important truth: the hosts of Heaven are...

By Francis Frangipane The promised land for a Christian is a life lived in the fullness of Christ. Just as there was an exodus of the Jews from Egypt, so there is an exodus for our human souls, where we leave our bondage to self-deception and truly enter the reality...

By Francis Frangipane A Dream: I was in an airport waiting for a delayed flight when a group of men invited me to join their card game. Although in real life I would be uncomfortable playing cards for money, in the dream I not only joined them, but I was soon winning...

By Francis Frangipane Before Jesus comes to be glorified in the Earth, He is coming to be glorified in the church. Our salvation grants us more than just church membership and a conservative perspective. We have, in truth, become one with Christ. The Lord Jesus is our...

By Francis Frangipane Just because we walk and talk does not mean we are truly awake. Zechariah was not sleeping when an angel roused him “as a man who is awakened from his sleep” (Zech. 4:1). Perhaps we too need to be shaken from our slumber to possess...
