| Welcome Vision My vision or statement of purpose as a watchman has always been to keep alert to things that will potentially harm my fellow saints and warn them of the subtle designs of the enemy. My focus is directed to several areas of the Christian life, namely: |

- The finishing faith and processing of the “Most
high Saints” who are called to the high calling, - Exposing “strong delusions” that erect a
smokescreen of deception directed at the saints, - Teaching the principle of destiny-discovery,
- The authority of the believer,
- The calling forth of the “hidden ones,”
- The renovation of the church system.

| My destiny has been set by the prophetic words of seasoned prophets I have known through the decades who have called me, “the stick that stirs the drink,” “the cattle prod,” and “the dissolver of doubts.” My mode of operation has to this point been through writing, teaching-missions to Peru, prophetic ministry in the church and marketplace, and religious paintings as an accomplished artist. Bio Sketch A native of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and degreed from the Milwaukee Institute of Technology and the University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee School of Fine Arts - Mike Killion has called North Carolina home for the last 25 years. Mike sold his first painting while in the sixth grade - a rendering of the inside of an old bank building - to the manager of the bank for $45 (WOW, instant wealth for a sixth grader in 1959). That set the die for a life of art expression and now he is a Charlotte resident, exhibiting his wide variety of subjects for the first time in the Queen City. In 1977, Mike moved to North Carolina and joined the Wilson Active Artists. He won his first competition with a “Best in Show” architectural painting of the Ralston-Purina grain elevators, and the next year won honorable mention with a 4’ x 8’ oil of football players called, “In the Trenches.” Also, while in Wilson, Mike broke into mural-painting and set- painting for the local community theater. Mike's semi- realistic style of the streets of old London and the Ascot horse track in “My Fair Lady” brought encouragement from the director to “...get ye up out of here and move to a big city where there are people who appreciate the arts. If you don’t, you'll die a sad and angry man.” Ever since coming to Charlotte in 1998, Mike has taught painting at Charlotte Christian School, painted eight murals, done commissioned art, and done faux finishes. And now, Mike is going public in North Carolina's foremost art center with a huge variety of subjects that reflects his desire to “give the public what they want.” Art is my philosophy of art and what drives me to paint... “I have said, 'Ye are gods, and all of you are children of the Most High.” (Psalm 82:6) When our Father Yahweh created us, that is, when God made love, He reproduced after Himself and created a race of duplicates of Himself. Yahweh is a Creator – that is who He is and that is what He does. Since man is His offspring, that's what we shall be and do. We can’t help it. It’s in our programming. When we create we are imitating Him and it comes naturally. In this there is communion with the Father, comparable to, but far better than, the communion enjoyed by a man and a woman. This is what drives me to paint and create...communion...being “in the zone” where time and space is suspended and the human and divine nature within us is recharged and energy returns. Also, when I paint I commune with my subject and use my imagination to experience what my subject is a part of "Calgon take me away!" I am that football player, that flower, that landscape, that peacock. Childlike? Yes, but so good for one's mental health. The Navigator's Official e-Newsletter Website Click Here |
