Why Jesus Still Chooses Imperfect People
There is something deeply encouraging hidden in the final chapter of Matthew. It is a small detail many people overlook. After the resurrection, the disciples gathered in Galilee exactly where Jesus told them to go. Imagine the emotion of that moment. These men had watched Jesus crucified. Their world had fallen apart. And now… Jesus stood before them alive. Matthew describes it this way: “When they saw Him, they worshiped Him; but some doubted.” (Matthew 28:17) I love the honesty of Scripture. These were not unbelievers. These were disciples who had walked with Jesus and witnessed miracles...
Your Healing Is Secured – The Price Was Already Paid
The price for your healing has already been paid. It was paid by Jesus. That’s what the Lord wants us to understand. Let’s look at the Scriptures together: Romans 8:31 “What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?” Romans 8:32 “He who did not spare His own Son... how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things?” James 1:17 “Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above... with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning.” Philippians 2:13 “For it is God who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure.” Through the cross,...
Choose Life: God’s Word Still Heals Today
Do you know that the Word of God actually brings life? It’s true. Listen to what God says: Deuteronomy 30:19–20 “...I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing; therefore choose life, that both you and your descendants may live... ...for He is your life and the length of your days.” God places before us the most profound choice imaginable—life or death, blessing or cursing. Then, in His great love, He urges us: choose life. Life is not found in possessions. It’s not found in power or position. From Heaven’s perspective, real life is found in God, through Jesus Christ. He is...
The Healing Covenant of Our God
A life-changing Scripture for me is this: Psalm 103:2–3 “Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits: Who forgives all your iniquities, Who heals all your diseases.” For many years, I built a simple but powerful habit around this passage. Each morning while brushing my teeth, I would speak these words out loud. It wasn’t elegant—and at times it made a bit of a mess—but it became a daily act of faith. Using that routine as a mnemonic anchor, I repeated the Scripture again and again, placing strong emphasis on one word: all. All your iniquities. All your diseases. That single...
When God Speaks, It Is Settled
I’m not sure about you but my Faith is Anchored in a Promise-Keeping God. The Bible tells us that God keeps His promises. Over the course of my lifetime, I can say this with complete honesty—this is absolutely true. There have been moments when answers to prayer came more slowly than I desired. Yet through it all, God has remained faithful. I have never seen Him fail. Not even once. Consider this powerful declaration: 2 Chronicles 6:14 “LORD God of Israel, there is no God in heaven or on earth like You, who keep Your covenant and mercy with Your servants who walk before You with all their...
Speak the Word – Faith in Motion
If you’ll allow me just a few minutes today, I want to share something that has the power to change your life. Speaking God’s Word out loud… is faith in motion. It’s where belief becomes action. Those aren’t just words I’m placing on a page. This is something I’ve lived. Something I’ve watched transform lives—including my own. There is something profoundly powerful about hearing God’s Word with your own ears—carried on the sound of your own voice—until it settles deep into your spirit. Belief begins quietly in the heart. But when you speak God’s Word out loud… belief begins to move. And that...
From Wheelchair to Wings – The Power That Changed Everything
Maybe recently you received a diagnosis that has shaken your world. Perhaps it’s something doctors say is inoperable—something that cannot be fixed. Or maybe it’s not life-threatening, but it wears you down day after day. Or perhaps your body is strong, but your heart is broken. You’ve lost someone you love… and you don’t understand why. Why would God allow such pain? I understand more than you might think. After surviving an airplane crash as a teenager, I spent about 30 days in a wheelchair in the backyard of my home in Los Alamitos, California. Nearly every part of my body had been...
The Truth About Who You Really Are (And Why It Changes Everything)
Most people believe faith is something you inherit—something you grow up around or absorb from your environment. But Scripture teaches something very different. Faith is a choice. And once chosen, it is something you develop. God has a plan for your life—a good plan, filled with purpose, peace, and direction. But stepping into that plan requires something many people never fully understand: how faith actually works. My prayer is that what you read today becomes a foundation—a starting point for a completely new way of living. I’m not talking about simply surviving. I’m talking about learning...
The 3 Steps Most People Miss Before Their Breakthrough
There was a time in my life when I didn’t fully understand the difference between hope, belief, and faith. I used the words almost interchangeably. But over time—and through experience, both in life and in the Word of God—I began to see that each one plays a distinct and powerful role. They work together… but they are not the same. Let’s begin with hope. Hope is where it all starts. It is that inner desire for something good—something better—to come. It’s the picture of a preferred future. Without hope, life begins to feel heavy, even hopeless. But God, in His goodness, gives us hope as an...
Atomic Faith Begins with a Living Word
The Word of God is alive. It’s not just a book—it is a living force. It carries within it the power to bring life, healing, restoration, and blessing into every area of your daily walk. When you engage with God’s Word each day, you’re not simply reading words on a page—you are receiving truth. You are being strengthened, corrected, and empowered from the inside out. Now let me gently clarify something I believe is important. When I refer to “the Bible” or “the Word of God,” I’m speaking of a faithful, accurate translation of God’s holy Word. Not a paraphrase, and not something that departs...
Is the Earth Flat?
A Pilot’s Perspective After 40 Years in the Air Over the years, I’ve been asked many questions—both from the cockpit and beyond. But one, in particular, has surfaced more frequently in recent times: “Captain Dale… after flying all over the world… do you believe the earth is flat?” That is an honest question. And rather than offer a forceful opinion, I would simply like to share what I have observed over four decades of flying—along with a few points of evidence for you to consider thoughtfully and personally. Let’s begin with something highly practical: navigation. Every flight I have ever...
Does God Heal Some… and Not Others?
It used to be one of the hardest questions I’ve ever faced. And… it’s one I didn’t ask casually. In my youth, I asked it through tears. Through fear. Through long nights when everything felt uncertain. Does God heal some people… and not others? If you’ve ever wondered that, you’re not alone. When I was walking through barely surviving an airplane crash, I saw something that deeply troubled me. There were people who loved God just as much as I did—some maybe even more, it seemed. People full of hope. People who prayed. People who trusted. And yet… not many of them were healed. So what do we...
Faith and Patience: The Power Twins
There was a time in my life when I believed that faith meant power. And that’s true. But I also thought… If I believed strongly enough… If I prayed clearly enough… If I stood firmly enough… Then surely things would change quickly. But that’s not what I experienced. What I discovered instead… was that faith has a companion. And its name is patience. During my wife’s journey through cancer, there were moments of strong, unwavering faith. Moments where she knew—deep down—that God was with her. As I stood by her… daily… hourly… I watched her hold on to God’s promises. I knew His Word is true. I...
Praying in the Spirit — Charging Your Spiritual Battery
Friends, Some subjects in the life of believers are widely understood. Others are rarely discussed or often misunderstood. Yet sometimes the very things believers avoid talking about are the things that could strengthen their spiritual lives the most. Our enemy often tries to rob the Christian of power any way he can — and that often includes anything to do with the Holy Spirit, who was sent to empower believers. Let’s continue our conversation about the Holy Spirit and the gift of "praying in the spirit" in your prayer life. This subject has been misunderstood for many years. Some churches...
The Power of the Holy Spirit — An Honest Question About Speaking in Tongues
Friends, Over the years I have received thousands of emails from readers asking sincere spiritual questions. Some questions are simple. Others are deeply personal. Every now and then a question arrives that opens the door to a truth that can change a person’s spiritual life in a powerful way. Recently I received one of those questions. Before we begin let me pause and say thank you. Many of you write emails, pray for us, and support the work Paula and Kara and I are doing. Because of you, we are reaching tens of thousands of people every week with the Gospel of Jesus Christ and the pure,...
Why Every Believer Needs the Holy Spirit in These Last Days
Over a lifetime I have watched many misunderstandings develop inside churches and around the world about the Holy Spirit. Too often people form opinions without checking it carefully against Scripture. They repeat what they heard someone say, instead of finding out what Jesus told us about His Spirit. The subject of the Holy Spirit may be one of the most misunderstood teachings in Christianity. It is not surprising that satan has worked diligently to scare people away. He has caused misconception of the most powerful aspect of God we have been given. All with a strategy to rob God’s people...
The Holy Spirit – Your Source of Power
The closing chapter of the Gospel of Luke gives us something precious — something every believer was meant to experience, yet in today’s society, it is rarely found. Let’s discover what that is. Luke records something remarkable: “And He opened their understanding, that they might comprehend the Scriptures.”- Luke 24:45 This is a quiet but powerful moment. The disciples had heard Jesus teach for years. They knew the Scriptures. But now, something changed—not in the text, but inside each of them. Jesus opened their understanding! This reminds us of an important truth: Knowledge alone...
When Heaven Pulls Back the Veil
Dear Friend, One of the most powerful promises in Scripture is found right at the beginning of the book of Revelation: “Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written in it; for the time is near.” (Revelation 1:3, NKJV) That word near matters. It reminds us that eternity isn’t far off somewhere in the distance — it’s only a heartbeat away. At any we could leave this life and enter eternity. The Apostle John understood this deeply. John had been exiled to the island of Patmos for preaching the Gospel. It was essentially the...
