Quotes from James Goll

Another word found in Strong's Concordance for prophetic impartation is nabiy', which as we have already seen, is the action of "flowing forth," or "bubbling forth like a fountain." This perfectly describes the inspirational gift of prophecy we see so often in meetings, particularly in a setting of a plurality of elders and seasoned, gifted individuals working together as a coordinated team—the "prophetic presbytery" (see 1 Tim. 4:14).

The only way to soften a hard heart. You can best counter the heart-hardening effect of sin by breaking it with God's hammer—His Word. "'Is not my word like fire,' declares the Lord, 'and like a hammer that breaks a rock in pieces?'" (Jeremiah 23:29).

Do you realize the cost they paid when they surrendered to their new Lord? No money, no job, no understandable future. They had just hurt the one person they had been trained all their lives to honor and whom they never wanted to bruise—their father. They left him to finish the fishing. They left him with no inheritance. But something in their hearts said, "Go." So they left all they knew to become something that their minds could not comprehend.

The Broken Vessel Have you ever been scorched by the hot words of Jesus? Has He ever spoken something so deep into your heart that you were cut to the very core of your being? I think this is exactly what happened to John in the passage below. I believe he was pierced by God in his fleshly strength, never to recover. When His disciples James and John saw this, they said, "Lord, do You want us to command fire to come down from heaven and consume them?" But He turned and rebuked them. Luke 9:54—55

Revelation flows more quickly and easily through a yielded vessel. Higher realms of glory are available to those who humbly surrender themselves to the Holy Spirit.
