“GOD IS REAL…and I can prove it!”
In his groundbreaking new book, HEAVEN HERE, Josh Adkins shares over 50 miraculous stories (many medically documented or taken place in the presence of many witnesses) along with thorough Scriptural teaching to reveal a supernatural kingdom hidden in plain sight.
We’ve been lied to. Faith doesn’t have to be blind! Discover God NOW in “Heaven Here.”
Available through Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Target and bookstores everywhere. Also at joshadkins.org (if you can’t afford it, there’s a discount code to receive it for free).
Heaven Here: It's Closer Than You Think Heaven Here: It's Closer Than You Think
“Heaven Here” is not just a collection of miracle stories. There are certainly many in the book (over 50 detailed). But those stories are merely supernatural confirmations atop a very intentional narrative and theological blueprint.
Chapter 1 is a brief, opening action sequence. Chapter 2 presents our problem of often feeling distant from God, His love and His power. The rest of the book proposes the solution.
Chapters 3-8 are a systematic breakdown of the gospel and theological rewirings of our identity as sons, brothers, bride, and friend. Incredible God-stories are interwoven throughout, but make no mistake: this is a discipleship.
The Manifestation section then breaks down topically the radical implications of the previous section in each aspect of Christian life. There’s a chapter on God-is-near prayer, healing, church-life, evangelism, suffering, glory, and ultimately union with God.
The purpose of “Heaven Here” is to help readers discover what I did: that God is much closer than you think in each and every facet of our Christian life. He talks back and longs to work WITH us, rather than us merely working for Him. This isn’t about dry-religion, but a daily, supernatural adventure into eternity!

One of the key tactics of demons is to twist truth and distort realities. They use manipulation of terms, contexts and displaced focus of a topic’s emphasis to do it. It should be no wonder that major principalities and rulers have permeated the culture with word-play manipulations to appease fleshly wickedness:
e.g. Murder is a woman’s right.
e.g. Free speech is dangerous.
These two statements ought to be so self-evidently malevolent, any idea as to otherwise would seem ludicrous. The fact large swaths of the population can be so hoodwinked into finding congruence between the first and second half of those sentences is proof enough “Satan has blinded the eyes of the unbelieving” (2 Cor 4:4).
Devil: “How can we get them to buy into poisoning or dismembering living children in the womb?”
Demon: “We can manipulate the terminology. We can shift the focal point away from the child’s life to the woman God gave privilege to bear it. We’ll whisper words of rebellion and offense, and make it an argument about “women’s rights.” We’ll turn the women against the men, playing off the true oppressions of women we’ve instituted through the ages. They’ll soon conflate being pro-life with tyranny and then murder the children as a virtue!”
Devil: “Excellent. How about free speech? How can we s***f out in America the ability for people to openly discuss and oppose evil ideas?”
Demons: “Master, we will use the same tactics. We will slowly convince the masses that hateful words are too unpleasant to remain legal. Meanwhile, we can amp up hatred between the humans. Instead of overcoming evil words with good, and bad ideas with better ideas, we’ll convince them to make laws against speaking freely. Then, we’ll put people in power to ensure those laws serve to gatekeep any moral speech and ideas that oppose our evils.”
Devil: “Well done again. What’s your name? What is your assignment?”
Demon: “I’m the ruler of broadcast media.”
"IS 'HEAVEN HERE' FOR ME?"
I wanted to give a little breakdown of my new book (in stores May 17th). I personally believe there's something powerful for everyone, and perhaps something below will especially grab your attention!
SECTION I - AWAKENING
Chapter 1 - That Just Happened
Chapter 2 - Father Estranged
Chapter 3 - Very Good News
Chapter 4 - This Changes Everything
This section introduces my awakening to God / Heaven being much closer than I ever thought possible. The first chapter is short, and starts off like a movie in the midst of action. It's an incredible and funny story of hearing God's voice (despite my doubts), and the surprising proof of accuracy (complete with picture documentation). Chapters 2-4 then describe my journey from feeling distant from God for much of my youth to his opening my eyes to His loving nature and nearness. Also, how he taught me to stop working FOR Him, and instead work WITH Him.
SECTION II - REVELATION
Chapter 5 - Like Father, Like Sons
Chapter 6 - Brothers in Arms
Chapter 7 - The Unveiling
Chapter 8 - Arks of Friendship
This section is a systematic reworking of our identity in Christ from the idea of "wretched sinner" to "beloved son," "brother to Jesus," "ambassador," "intimate bride" and "close friend." This section would be great for discipleship and training new believers or those coming from more traditional, reformed, or cessationist backgrounds. There are a number of astounding miracle stories confirming these points of restored identity throughout - including a provocative, yet holy one involving a H***N! haha
SECTION III - MANIFESTATION
Chapter 9 - Talking with God
Chapter 10 - Healing with God
Chapter 11 - Churching with God
Chapter 12 - Harvesting with God
Chapter 13 - Suffering with God
Chapter 14 - Glory with God
Chapter 15 - Union with God
This is by far the most miracle-laden section. If you are already Holy Spirit-filled and longing for inspiration, encouragement, and HOW-TO walk in greater glory, this is the section for you! There are over 30 miracle stories spread throughout, not counting 2 pages of bullet point listed healings. In "Suffering with God," I pull no punches about walking through a decade of hell, and trying to make biblical sense of it. I know if I can overcome, you can too! Finally, the last two chapters ("Glory with God" and "Union with God") detail the most insanely supernatural things I've witnessed thus far in my life in Christ. There is cited scientific research and first-hand testimony of people in my life talking directly to Jesus in visions. 🙂
Pick up a copy below. I would even suggest giving it to an agnostic or atheist family member or friend! It would also greatly benefit a non-spirit filled or skeptical Christian. As always, if someone can't afford it, there is a free option on my website. God bless you, guys!

COLORADO MIRACLE POWER
(Healing, Demons cast out, Holy Impartation)
On Wednesday, I attended Maria Davis’ revival meeting. About 30 packed in the living room to worship Jesus, hear the Word, and experience the Holy Spirit.
I was privileged to pray for several, as was Maria. One man’s chronic lung condition (tormenting shortness of breath) was healed after I walked him through inner healing for trauma and manipulation (from a former situation) and commanded any spirit connected to go. He left breathing fully for the first time in years!
Another woman received an impartation for a strong prophetic gifting to rest upon her. She fell in the floor and remained there encountering God for nearly an hour.
Maria prayed for a young girl who’d been thru physical trauma and participated in forms of the occult, demonic video games and anime. She repented, renounced, and then manifested 5-6 demons before it was over and all were cast out. She ended trembling and laughing under the Presence of the Holy Spirit. She said, “nothing like this has happened before!” She was free.
Jesus is Lord!

Hey everyone,
Facebook enormously handicaps public pages. I created this in the hopes to reach more people with the gospel through various means.
Unfortunately, the algorithms have greatly limited that. My private page gets 10 times the reach and interaction with only 5K friends (as opposed to 20K here). Inevitably, this means I post and interact less here.
If you’ve been blessed by the biblical truths, testimonies, or live broadcasts here, I’d encourage you to check out the “more” over at my private one. LINK in comments below!
If I’ve reached 5K friends, just click “follow.” 🙂 I read your comments and respond as much as I can! Blessings!
Some in the body of Christ use “character” as a weapon against the power of God. It’s a deceptive message, often birthed from jealousy and competition.
Character is vital. Character will sustain you. But character alone will never produce power. I meet people everyday with impeccable character - people who’ve walked with the Lord for decades - who have little to no power flowing in their life.
FAITH, PRAYER, HUNGER & OBEDIENCE result in power. To be sure, you don’t want these things without character also. Character sustains it all, but character alone is not the full story.
Desire, aquire, and celebrate ALL of it!! Otherwise, you’ll be a very noble person continuing to stand on the sidelines of the kingdom.
291 MORE SALVATIONS in Pakistan, Middle East, & Beyond!! Glory to God!
I’m personally doing two make-up discipleship classes this week for anyone still interested in our BLOOM school! One track is on identity. The first lesson is very healing actually. We’ve had people who’ve walked with the Lord for 40 years weeping in that class in prior years. Beautiful!
The second track is on the Holy Spirit! It’s all about connecting and working with God on earth. Lots of power and miracles later on. That zoom class is TOMORROW night at 8 est / 7 cst. I’ll be co-hosting with Ashley Mele. If you’re interested, please see the link below! It’s all free.
So, there’s still time to get into the 9 week school! Community zoom groups can be joined at any time.
Remember, it was the religious who crucified Jesus.
ARE YOU a CHRISTIAN LONGING FOR CONNECTION?
Tired of scrolling, feeling isolated and lonely every night? Join BLOOM! We have Zoom discipleships & zoom community groups 5 nights a week! Meet new friends, forge relationships face-to-face, and bloom in Christ!

Just before you breathe your last, will you be thinking:
a) I’m glad I spent my entire life working a job for a paycheck in order to golf and take a few vacations near the very end.
b) I’m glad I spent years drinking and addicted to chemical substances.
c) I’m glad I made sports, music, and entertainment my ultimate pursuit.
d) I’m glad I made my finite physical body my idol for a few decades.
e) I’m glad I spent my life doing the will of the God I’m about to meet.
If you’re ready for “e,” stop what you’re doing right now. Fall to your knees and ask Jesus to forgive your sins, and make you a brand new creation, so that you can live with eternal purpose. Don’t waste your short existence pursuing foolish and ultimately meaningless things. At the end, what will you have to take with you?
NEARLY ENTIRE PAKISTAN VILLAGE RECEIVES JESUS
On Tuesday morning, I was honored to minister to a remote village in Pakistan. Most in this place had never heard the gospel. Some were Muslim. Using a translator through Zoom, I presented our need for a Savior and total surrender to Jesus.
These people understood seeking atonement through the blood of animals, ceremonial cleansing and works. Using Psalm 24, the Holy Spirit helped me explain how only those with “a pure heart could ascend the hill of the Lord.” I explained no animal, no ceremony, and no work could reach the sin within every human heart. Only a sinless God-man who came to shed His innocent blood could do that.
When I asked through the interpreter who then wanted to receive this salvation, every hand I could see in view of the screen furiously waved back at me. I could barely compose myself. There were 75 or so I could see, many more I could not. Nearly the entire village received Christ as Lord.
Then, we prayed for healing. Approximately 20 of the people waved back excitedly in reporting the pains, ailments, etc. in their body that could be immediately measured were totally gone. The Lord then filled several with the power of the Holy Spirit also.
The moment the call ended, I wept deeply behind my desk. I’m crying again as I type this. Nothing else in the world mattered. Eternity trumped all.
Sometimes I hold off on sharing these reports to check my heart. Why am I sharing? For validation from people or to encourage the body?
Today, I want to encourage you to not get so distracted with ONE thing in the American news, that you forget the kingdom of God is at hand in a thousand other ways. Elections in America will play out without our obsession. Jesus wants to save, heal, deliver, fill, disciple and encourage people in your sphere of influence. The gospel is going forward to the ends of the earth, but is just as needed across your hall or neighborhood street.
Stay focused, church. Stay usable. Don’t forget the gospel.
