Warning — prophetic illiterates wakeup

Skilled Workman Posted on October 22, 2021 by David BergslandOctober 22, 2021

Warning — prophetic illiterates wakeup before you miss your chance! It is likely that you have no real idea what is happening to the world. But, the Bible has given us a lot of specific information. The Lord slapped me upside the head yesterday. I was watching and listening to a YouTube presentation and the speaker casually mentioned the duty of prophetic scholars —to warn the people. I was deeply convicted. Though I’ve been studying Bible prophecy since … Continue reading →

Truly, increasing the Bride or saving America matters

Skilled Workman Posted on October 19, 2021 by David BergslandOctober 19, 2021

Truly, increasing the Bride or saving America is our question. But America, as we know it, is not going to survive. The end of the age is here. We are in prophetic times — Bible times, again. Just recently, there was a major tent revival halfway between where I live in Rochester, New York and Buffalo. The response was phenomenal. A thousand pastors got involved. Many hundreds of volunteers showed up. Opening night happened in pouring rain, … Continue reading →

God’s judgement comes with His blessing

Skilled Workman Posted on November 22, 2020 by David BergslandNovember 22, 2020

God’s judgement comes with His blessing especially when we turn to Him in trust. I was reading Perry Stone’s new book this morning and I was struck in his introduction by the juxtaposition of two major events: in April of 1906, both the San Francisco earthquake, and the Azusa Street revival occurred. The news called the earthquake the judgment of God. It’s probable that it was that as a consequence of the Gold Rush. In a very … Continue reading →

Identify works of Satan before warfare begins

Skilled Workman Posted on July 15, 2020 by David BergslandJuly 15, 2020

Identify works of Satan before the warfare begins. Simply lashing out can cause issues. We don’t want to hurt the people involved in the problem. Trying to force a deliverance on a person with mental damage can cause even more damage. You are building a case, seeking insight from the Lord about how to proceed. The warfare is against any evil spirits involved. You are not fighting people. You are seeking to bring healing and wholeness to … Continue reading →

New-found freedom to change in rebirth

Skilled Workman Posted on July 14, 2020 by David BergslandJuly 14, 2020

We have a new-found freedom to change in our rebirth after we repent and ask Jesus in to our life. The world talks about our freedom. But we have no real freedom until we enter the Kingdom of God. This makes no sense until you’re reborn. You will not understand these things until you have been born of God. If this hasn’t happened yet in your life, you need to take care of that first.  Your choice … Continue reading →

Children, young adults, and mature adults from I John

Skilled Workman Posted on July 12, 2020 by David BergslandJuly 13, 2020

Understanding children, young adults, and mature adults, as shown in I John, gives us another glimpse of the development of Christian maturity. In fact, training for spiritual maturity needs to begin as soon as the convert passes from childhood to young adult. We find this explained by John, “I am writing to you, little children, because your sins are forgiven for His name’s sake. I am writing to you, fathers, because you have known Him who is from the beginning. I … Continue reading →

Pressure brings repentance using stress

Skilled Workman Posted on May 3, 2020 by David BergslandJuly 15, 2020

Yes, pressure brings repentance using stress to reveal problems with our character. Look at what COVID-19 has done for us. Most of us are feeling pressure to whine, complain, be rude, give up, or act obnoxious. If our character is mature and fruitful, our reaction is to seek ways to help others in this tough time, and to seek the Lord who is the only one with a plan and the power to bring it to pass. … Continue reading →

Knowing Jesus personally in daily living

Skilled Workman Posted on March 24, 2020 by David BergslandJuly 16, 2020

Knowing Jesus personally in daily living is required to get into the Kingdom of God. That’s easy to prove Biblically. It’s hard to find in the church today. It’s not that pastors and teachers are against the idea. It’s simply not taught because it’s so basic. OR, it’s so personal that they’re embarrassed to share in public. But it’s so pervasive that you really can’t go to any church today and ask, “What’s the Lord done in … Continue reading →

Personal intimacy with Yeshua changes everything

Skilled Workman Posted on March 5, 2020 by David BergslandJuly 16, 2020

For me, the most important thing I’ve ever learned is that personal intimacy with Yeshua changes everything. Currently, most of the church ignores this simple fact. To my horror, even churches preaching the gospel about the blood and the cross, focusing on new converts and leading them to the Lord, often don’t mention this from the pulpit. All of their services are evangelistic. As far as I can tell, the pastors and teachers who know this don’t … Continue reading →

Spiritually cleaning up your work place

Skilled Workman Posted on April 9, 2012 by David BergslandDecember 8, 2023

Spiritually cleaning up your work place does not have anything to do with the drek seen from Hollywood. Office help: let’s start with the basics As I ramp up to start producing help for you in your daily work, it strikes me that the most basic things are often forgotten. So, let’s start with something real basic. Gaining spiritual control of your office As we get started on this we need to talk about some basics of … Continue reading →
