  • Biography

    I've spoken in tongues and interpreted publicly for the last 17 years. Also, I've ministered pastorally or prophetically full or part time for 24 years. I was prepared for ministry by Sister Goodwin. Mom and Dad Goodwin, as they were affectionately called, were a husband and wife ministry team. Dad Goodwin was a pastor and Mom Goodwin was a prophet. They ministered together for 50 years. Kenneth Hagin Sr. considered the Goodwins to be his spiritual parents, and he learned much from them. The Goodwins also ministered with Smith Wigglesworth, and many times with Howard Carter. Mom and Dad impacted the lives and ministries of Kenneth Hagin, Kenneth Copeland, Oral Roberts, John Osteen, Marilyn Hickey, and Billye Brim. I knew Mom Goodwin for the last 10 years of her life. I spoke with her many times and visited her in her home. Although Mom and Dad were mightily anointed, they were not content to flow in a strong anointing on the platform, and leave their congregation members sitting idly by as mere spectators. But they also did not go to the other extreme and hold "prophesying classes," as some ministries tried to do in the 1990's with disasterous results. No, they followed the leading of the Holy Spirit as He drew them to specific individuals over the years, in their congregation, and to ministers outside their congregation. I was one of the last ministers that the Lord told Mom to take under her wing. I believe my calling is to pick up the Goodwins' mantle, and continue their ministry of teaching and demonstrating the Gifts of the Spirit in general, but specifically to eventually concentrate most of my efforts on pastoring and developing a local congregation in the Spirit.

The Highest Form of Spiritual Warfare

Posted by brothermel on January 8, 2009

“The Highest Form of Spiritual Warfare” 

 

 By Mel C. Montgomery

 Allow me to ask you three questions:

      1.  Do you need a breakthrough in your life or ministry?

      2.  Are you desperate enough to go wherever the truths of the Bible lead you? 

     3.  Are you willing to fairly reassess  some  commonly taught principles of spiritual warfare? 

     Be careful how you answer those questions.  

     In this 33 page e-book, I present an in-depth comparison of our spiritual warfare teachings to scripture.  I think you will be surprised that the scriptures teach a kind of spiritual warfare that is nearly the opposite of what we Charismatic and Word of  Faith believers  teach and practice.  Many nagging questions will be answered as your mind is renewed with the Word of God, and you begin to grasp the principles of what the Bible reveals is the highest form of spiritual warfare.  And as you apply what you learn, you’ll be set free. 

     Subjects include: 

  • Christ’s Method of Spiritual Warfare
  • A Fresh Look at Binding and Loosing
  • Wrestling with Principalities and Powers
  • Paul’s Method of Spiritual Warfare
  • Seated with Christ in Heavenly Places
  • My Experience with Spiritual Warfare
  • How We Exercise Our Spiritual Authority   

     Brace Yourself!   

     This isn’t just the same old rehash.
