As I was praying today, I contemplated the statement, “When you wish upon a star”, made famous by a Disney movie. In the Bible, Jesus Christ is literally called, “the Bright and Morning Star”. The key to understanding the power of this phrase is to remember that Jesus is the star we “wish” upon. Remember,Continue reading “When You Wish Upon A Star”

A key unlocks something that is precious; one of the most precious keys that a congregation possesses is their pastor. Let me first give you a disclaimer:I am a pastor myself. Years ago, the Lord spoke to me and said, “Richard, it is your fault that your family is not together and it is yourContinue reading “The Key to a Perfect Church”

Many times the source of a word that is spoken sets the stage for the heart of the hearer to be open and receive the word in fresh innocence. Love for the messenger that has spoken fertilizes words into a potential harvest of blessing. My daughter Misty Dejavu Gazowsky went through an experience this yearContinue reading “A Word from the Handmaiden of the Lord”

Cycles can also be referred to as habits that become harmful to your life ~ such as alcohol, cigarettes, lying, stealing, or maybe just being mean. The thing that is incredible is that God’s willing to help you break the cycle, but you have to be willing to go through process.   It’s actually veryContinue reading “Intercession To Break Cycles”

The ways of God are the treasure that unlocks the keys to His kingdom. God said, “They always go astray in their heart and they have not known My ways.” And remember that Isaiah said this about God’s way, “Nor are your ways My ways, says the Lord, for as the heavens are higher thanContinue reading “The Power Of Waiting”

Just before my mother and founder of our church, Pastor Emeritus Marilyn Gazowsky passed away, the clouds of pending trouble were hanging above our ministry. In 2015, I woke up one morning and stood next to my bed.  The Lord said, “You know I am classy. I will take care of everything so do absolutelyContinue reading “The Originator Of Class”

The purpose of Jesus having us pray is because God answers our prayers. So when He taught us to pray the Lord‘s prayer, “Thy will be done in earth as it is in heaven,” literally He was saying you can have heaven on earth if you pray that prayer. So now I want to giveContinue reading “The Key To Having A Magical Day”

For a period of time I kept waking up early in the wee hours of the morning ~ and I would just sit up in my bed. At one afternoon lunch after church, I asked the great prophet of God from Africa, Victor Emenike, if there was some reason for God waking me up orContinue reading “But While Men Slept”

To set up this scenario appropriately, the situation must be filled with quiet expectancy. Matter-of-fact, the louder and stronger and more intense the expectancy is, the more that silence screams loudly with the thunderous impact of an earthquake. If you have been reading my blogs consistently, then you know I am obsessed with learning theContinue reading “Sometimes Saying Nothing ~ Is Saying Something Great!”

The Lord spoke to me today to declare a fast for the next 7 days. Listen for the voice of God; He’ll tell you what to fast. We want to be in agreement with Heaven. When Daniel did his 21 day fast, he was in agreement with Gabriel and Michael, who were fighting against theContinue reading “Just a Word…”
