I have a few things I am passionate about. At the top of the list are:  hidden things in the bible and combat sports. They may not to seem to have much in common but I am endlessly intrigued by both. In my early years sports such as BMX and gymnastics occupied my teenage life. I was not very good at academics having a classic case of ADD but I ended up excelling in combat sports such as Karate Kickboxing Boxing & Muay Thai. I became a world class fighter. Here is my sport fighting history for those who are interested. https://www.mongoosefightsystem.com/

I have had the opportunity to train with some of the best fighters in the world. It seems God often uses our secular vocations to prepare us for ministry. In a similar way I have also come across a few of the most unusual prophetic ministers I think the world has ever seen. I am fascinated by their insights and I marvel at the unusual "new things" the Lord does through them. (Isaiah 48:6)  

God the father first revealed Himself to me in an "out of the clear blue sky" experience in 1987. Shortly afterward I was introduced to the new testament and immediately I was enamored with Jesus words in the sermon on the mount. The Gospel was my new delight. 

Later I experienced Holy Spirit manifestations during the 1994 Pensacola/Toronto revival that also came to the Valley Vineyard in Reseda Ca. In 2012 God began an upgrade in me through a series of prophetic encounters. It started with a shuddering lightning bolt in the Spirit that woke me up from an afternoon nap. God was highlighting something. 

"The voice of the Lord strikes with flashes of lightning" Psalm 29:7.   It awaken me to a number of prophetic insights.  A couple times I heard an alarm clock ring when I never set one, “Wake up, sleeper, rise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you.” Ephesians 5:4,  

Another time I heard a gunshot; Hebrews 12:1 ...let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us... 

The end time race has started and those who run the last leg of the race are the ones that run the hardest to the finish line. 

I realised that God was pointing me to a series of end time themes. I heard knocking on my door, God was addressing the Laodicean Church age Revelation 3:20.  He sovereignly guided me through a kind of schooling of the prophets through their teachings.

My understanding of the prophetic grew but it seemed I operated differently than what many of the prophetic schools were teaching. I did not have visions or words of knowledge but I was drawn to, "The Spirit of Wisdom and Revelation" as described in Ephesians 1:17-18. 

God revealed His heart to me in that first encounter in 1987 and gave me a sense of what really is important to Him. He wants us to understanding His ways.  Jeremiah 9:23

And this is my prayer: that your love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight... Philippians 1:9

Continually increasing or abounding in the love of God leads to the deepest kind of spiritual understanding. I am passionate about the Word of God and a purpose has been built into me to present it pure and without guile.
