Chronicles of a Watchman by Dr. James P. Norman Jr.

Exodus 15:26 reveals I am Jehovah that Healeth Thee. The purpose of this message is to establish within you the fact that beyond all shadow of doubt God Wants to Heal You.   God has no tolerance for the destructive behavior of wicked Christians, but rather they turn to righteousness.   He has placed in the Body of Christ that will, the raising the dead, healing the sick, destroying the false prophets, and can see revival spread out through their land.   Those who accepted walked with great favor, great anointing, and God was their friend.   The early Church believed in miracles.   They prayed for miracles and expected them.   This was not expectancy by a few, but by everyone, and according to their faith, it was done unto them: They were healed. Everyone.   They had never seen our Lord Jesus Christ refuse anyone.   He never turned any away.   None ever applied to Him for healing in vain.   The early Church was following His...

We should be allowing the Spirit of Faith to advance us further, and further into the victories against evil, and satanic spirits.   This revelation is still made available to us who are called into the Five-Fold ministry.   Each office, by title and call, still has that access into another’s office, or call to profit the whole body of Christ.   1 Thessalonians 2:1 says that it’s obvious that our coming here was no waste of time.   We have been given a lot of rough treatment over the years, as you know, but that hasn’t slowed us down or stopped us to this day.   We are sure of ourselves in God, and are going right ahead presenting God’s message to you in defiant opposition to evil and biblical error.   God is constantly training us thoroughly to make sure we are qualified to be trusted with this message.   Be assured that when we speak to you we are not after crowd approval but God’s approval.   Since we’ve been put through the battery of...

Hebrews 5:11-14 says, “Of Christ, we have many things to say and difficult to make clear to you, not because they are mysteries, but because you are slow to grasp the doctrines delivered you.   You are dull and slothful not willing to self-judge.   It is not true that it is so complicated.   The trouble is with men who take the wrong attitude due to their religious background.   One factor is that preachers and teachers today do not emphasize the gifts of the Spirit nor do they stir up the gifts.   People are not hungry for Holiness and Righteousness.   Many today are not keeping the principles and standards to continue to build on.   You have been professed Christians long enough to be examples, but because of your laziness and dullness in grasping truth, your desire to be liked has made it a must to be taught a second time the first simple doctrines of Christ.   You have not grown at all.   You have become of those who drawback, and have...

Acts 1:8 says “ But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.” One of the most common excuses for not becoming a Christian is the fear of failure to live by faith in the Christian life.   Besides overlooking the fact that men cannot be saved on the basis of good works, this objection neglects the truth that God provides the power to live the faith life. Before Christ was crucified He promised the coming of the Holy Spirit to help believers.   The subsequent events of the Book of Acts supply ample evidence of the fulfillment of this prophecy. Let’s stop here for a moment. This is the exit point which every denomination grabs the power, makes it human, and not supernatural. They will use and rely on water baptism as the basis and not Holy Spirit power. It takes generations of developing and working with the power, and autho...

Faith in God makes you an asset not a liability.  You are not here to please the world or the flesh.  You are here to show the world an image of God.  You are showing God that his purpose for you and your faith in the Word is working for the benefit of all. His plan and purpose were ordained and established when he created Man.  Anything that has to do with God's creation, I repeat God's creation, the devil and his cohorts have tried to corrupt and alter God's plan for how it is to operate.  All alterations from God's plan for male, female functions, he (Satan) has altered.  At the fall of Adam, Satan went about attacking everything God created, and God's purpose for that creation.  Satan's big trick was to blame God for the evil creatures, sickness, famine, wars, climate change...etc. Years ago, I did a study  on Solomon and his writings on the Book of Proverbs. I found he could not keep the Proverbs, so he wrote them. The Book of Prover...

The words in Ephesians 5:18 are “Be filled with the Spirit.” There are four grammatical rules in the Greek language which lead us to four truths relative to this great subject.   First, the verb is the imperative mode.   That is, it is imperative that we be filled with the Spirit.   God commands it, and gives access both ways--By Him and by us.   The fullness is the divine enablement in the life of a Christian which results in a Christ-like life.   The fullness of the Spirit, if we are looking to please God in this life, can only happen in the beauty of holiness.   Failure to be filled with the Spirit is sin and results in failure to live a life honoring to God.   Access only makes everything you ask to do by Jesus who is head of the Church clearer.   Second, the tense of the verb is present, and this tense in the imperative mode always represents action going on.   We learn from this that the mechanics of a spirit-filled life does not pr...

God as Christ has become the origin of that image we are to display to the world, in His likeness, one in the same time, we can play the role of the mirror reflecting to others what we received from Him. To understand that, we need to understand the nature of man and the way He made us including how He intended us to function.  In 1 Thessalonians 5:23 man is spirit, soul, and body. The least important is the body; next the soul which is that behavior mechanism that man has in common with all forms of animal life; and then the human spirit, the most important part of man to God. This spirit allows His creator to occupy man that God might have access to him (man) and man might have access to Him as God. As we talk about access to God, many of us unfortunately operate backwards with God. We at times look for another approach or another way to access Him. This other way is a back door, which involve our carnal ideas about access to ...
