Apostles, Prophets and Future Church

November 1, 2012 by David Orton

Apostles, Prophets and Future Church

The Believer’s Greatest Ability: The DNA of the new kingdom order

February 20, 2011 by David Orton

The Believer’s Greatest Ability: The DNA of the new kingdom order

Make me know Your ways, O LORD; Teach me Your paths.   Psalms 25:4 To fear the Lord is to be taught of the Lord. In fact, the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. But this wisdom is so beyond human ken it must be supernatural. Therefore, only by imbibing the “spirit of the fear of the Lord” (Isa 11:2) will we be filled with the desire and the ability to learn His … [Read more...]

The Bible’s Greatest Spiritual Secret

February 9, 2011 by David Orton

The Bible’s Greatest Spiritual Secret

“The secret of the LORD is for those who fear Him” Psalms 25:14 The secret, or intimate, things of God are not accessible to everyone. In fact, God hides the deeper knowledge of himself. Surrounded by clouds and thick darkness (Psa 37:2), he confounds those who would come to him filled with spiritual ambition. Driven from the garden, would-be autonomous man is unable to … [Read more...]

An ‘Appointed Time’: A word to the global church

An ‘Appointed Time’: A word to the global church

 You know how to interpret the appearance of the sky,  but you cannot interpret the signs of the times (kairos). Matthew 16:3 You will arise and have compassion on Zion, for it is time to show favour to her; the appointed time has come. Psalm 102:13 Not all moments of history are equal. Some are hinges on which a quantum increase of the kingdom swings. We are currently … [Read more...]

What on earth is God doing?

May 29, 2010 by David Orton

What on earth is God doing?

Do not fear, little flock, for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom. Luke 12:32. The global financial system totters. Whole nations declare bankruptcy. Panic strikes the world markets. Political leaders meet late into the night searching for answers that don’t exist. Militant Islam invades through immigration and population growth. Secularism dominates … [Read more...]

The Message

21st century Western man is now living in the moral debris of the 20th century experiment—the experiment of messianic statism – Marxist, Fascist, and now secular Humanist – with its rejection of God in Christ as the genius of the Western cultural heritage. Spiritually, morally, and financially bankrupt the West has now exhausted its options. 

Our message despite the historic failure of humanity, including the church, is one of certainty and hope. God has a purpose for history and for nations—for their governance, prosperity, and peace. God’s plan for the planet is more than adequate for its crisis. Lifemessenger is committed to speaking a prophetically pertinent word to church and culture.
