This is repentance season—and before God pours out revival through the church, He is calling the church to return to Him.

Maybe you are hungry for God to move, but you cannot understand why breakthrough seems delayed. Maybe you want to see an outpouring of the Holy Spirit—not only on a large scale, but in your own life and family. Maybe you know you have drifted, but you do not know what returning to God really looks like.

Or perhaps when you hear the word repentance, you immediately think of condemnation. You think repentance is only saying, “I am sorry,” or enduring God beating down His people.

But repentance is not God beating down His people. Repentance is the doorway back into fellowship, freedom, restoration, renewing, refining, and revival.

By the end of this post, I want you to understand four things:

• First, why repentance must begin with the house of God.

• Second, what true biblical repentance actually means.

• Third, what a lifestyle of repentance opens in your life, your family, and the church.

• Fourth, how to return to your first love and do the first works again.

And I need you to stay with me, because I am also going to share a Word from the Lord that I believe is for this moment.

REPENTANCE BEGINS WITH THE HOUSE OF GOD

This is a moment when the Lord is calling people back!

He is calling us back to Himself. The Lord is calling the hurting, the weary, the broken, the battered, and the bruised. He is calling those who have wandered away and become lost again in their sins.

Jesus is seeking to save that which was lost. With great compassion, He is calling those who have strayed to RETURN to the Lord.

But it is an hour for the church first to return and come to repentance.

I cannot get away from this thought from the Lord: it is REPENTANCE SEASON.

• For the church, it is time to come home.

• For the church, it is time to repent.

• For the church, it is time to get our hearts back in line with our God.

He longs to pour out among His people great power, overwhelming victory, and the goodness of His name. But it all begins with us humbling ourselves and returning to a place of repentance.

And to those whose first thought is, “What do I need to repent of?”—you are the very ones He is speaking to!

When we, in any way—whether in large ways or small ways—TURN AWAY and depart from the paths of righteousness, there is a great need to return.

Listen to what Scripture declares:

1 Peter 4:17–18 NKJV-For the time has come for judgment to begin at the house of God; and if it begins with us first, what will be the end of those who do not obey the gospel of God? [18] Now “If the righteous one is scarcely saved, Where will the ungodly and the sinner appear?”

We have to understand that our repentance affects more than us alone. Our repentance is a witness of hope to the world. It declares that God saves, God restores, God renews, God replenishes, and God refines.

Our repentance speaks hope to people who lost their hope long ago and laid it aside. It tells the world that the Lord is a God of great mercy and grace, who forgives and redeems people from iniquity and from the places where they have wandered and strayed.

In fact, if we are going to experience the outpouring of God, WE MUST REPENT.

Whether your desire is to experience an outpouring from the Holy Spirit on a large scale, or simply to see Him move in your own family, it all starts with repentance.

#1: repentance must begin with the house of God because God intends for His people to become a living testimony of His saving, restoring, renewing, replenishing, and refining grace.

REPENTANCE MUST BECOME OUR LIFESTYLE.

It must become the WAY we live every day. We must begin to care more about what the Lord thinks of us than what the world wants from us.

Psalm 51:16–17 NKJV-For You do not desire sacrifice, or else I would give it; You do not delight in burnt offering. [17] The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit, A broken and a contrite heart- These, O God, You will not despise.

The Hebrew word for “sacrifice” is זֶבַח—zevach—which refers to offerings made to God.

“Broken” in Hebrew is שָׁבוּר—shavur—implying something shattered or crushed and symbolizing deep humility.

“Contrite” is נִדְכֶּה—nidkeh—meaning crushed or deeply penitent and emphasizing a heartfelt sorrow for sin.

Each of these words foreshadows what Jesus would provide for us on the cross. These are expressions that Jesus is the ultimate and only sacrifice for sins that can ever save. When we place our faith in Jesus, He becomes FOR US the ultimate sacrifice on a personal level, allowing us acceptance with the Father.

The sacrifices the Lord desires are a heart shattered and crushed in deep humility, along with a spirit crushed to the point of deep sorrow for sin. These things are the basis for true repentance, and without repentance we will not be born again.

• To say that we have no need for repentance or for a lifestyle of deep repentance...

• To say that we no longer need to search our hearts for sin and wrongdoing...

• To say or think that we are so good that we do not need the Lord to cleanse us daily...

• Is to accept and come into union with a religious spirit and a self-righteous spirit that stands obstinate against the Lord.

For the church to become the bride of Christ He is returning for will require EACH OF US to search our hearts and ask the HOLY SPIRIT to search our hearts.

I SAY AGAIN WHAT I’M HEARING FROM THE LORD: THIS IS REPENTANCE SEASON.

WORD FROM THE LORD —

This is the season, says the Lord, for my people to humble themselves and return to me, the living God, and see if I will not pour out my Spirit, blessing, and power upon you and among you. For I long to move in my people and pour out my Spirit. I long to send you FREEDOM that comes to those who submit to my hand, but you must SUBMIT. With conviction from my Holy Spirit, you must repent and come back to me in ALL your ways and stop turning to the right hand and to the left. You must allow me to lead and guide your steps and stop pursuing your own pleasure; instead, seek my face and the pleasure of my ways. For soon I come, says the Lord. I am returning for a people who have made themselves pure and clean in my eyes—those who have not given themselves over to their own ways and pleasures. I am returning for those who find their pleasure and their purpose in serving me and opening their hearts to the goodness of my name and the power of my Spirit.

RETURN TO THE LORD WITH ALL YOUR HEART

Friends, it is repentance season!

Joel 2:12–17 NKJV-“Now, therefore,” says the LORD, “Turn to Me with all your heart, With fasting, with weeping, and with mourning.” [13] So rend your heart, and not your garments; Return to the LORD your God, For He is gracious and merciful, Slow to anger, and of great kindness; And He relents from doing harm. [14] Who knows if He will turn and relent, And leave a blessing behind Him- A grain offering and a drink offering For the LORD your God? [15] Blow the trumpet in Zion, Consecrate a fast, Call a sacred assembly; [16] Gather the people, Sanctify the congregation, Assemble the elders, Gather the children and nursing babes; Let the bridegroom go out from his chamber, And the bride from her dressing room. [17] Let the priests, who minister to the LORD, Weep between the porch and the altar; Let them say, “Spare Your people, O LORD, And do not give Your heritage to reproach, That the nations should rule over them. Why should they say among the peoples, ‘Where is their God?’”

• Where is our fasting?

• Where is our weeping over our sins?

• Where is the mourning heart that grieves for the wrong it has done?

• Where are those who rend their hearts?

• Where is our consecration and separation unto the Lord?

Even in my own self, I search and ask the Lord, “Have I done what I am supposed to do? Have I declared all the Word of God? Have I cried out enough, ‘Spare Your people’?”

I feel deeply that this is the word for the moment.

Suddenly, the Lord is returning.

Also, suddenly the Lord is coming back to His temple.

Suddenly, He will come in to those who have prepared their hearts.

Suddenly, He will say, “The time is now and the time has come.”

We do not want to be unprepared and miss the move of God!

We do not want to be unrepentant, with obstinate hearts full of our own ways, and be left behind.

The people of God are the first fruits of the Kingdom. God is looking for hearts that want HIM MORE THAN ANYTHING!

The deepest reason we repent is because we understand that He is the treasure. We develop a longing for Him over everything else, and we want NOTHING that hinders our relationship with Jesus.

It is time for the people of God to stop trying to see just how much of our own pleasure He will allow, and instead pursue just how much of HIS pleasure we can receive.

WHAT TRUE REPENTANCE MEANS

Let me be clear about what repentance means.

• REPENTANCE IS NOT ONLY SAYING, “I AM SORRY.”

• REPENTANCE IS WHEN WE LITERALLY CHANGE OUR MIND AND ALIGN WITH GOD’S MIND, AND WE WALK IN A NEW DIRECTION BY OUR CHOICE AND FAITH.

• REPENTANCE IS A CHANGE OF MIND THAT LEADS TO A CHANGE OF HEART, THAT CREATES A CHANGE OF ACTION.

• God grants repentance.

• Repentance always leads us to confession of sin.

• Confession of sin leads to forgiveness of sin.

• WE must confess AND forsake our sins.

#2: true repentance is not merely an emotional apology. It is a God-granted change of mind that changes the heart, changes our actions, leads to confession, and causes us to confess and forsake our sins.

WHAT REPENTANCE OPENS

Repentance is not GOD BEATING DOWN HIS PEOPLE.

Repentance is not just SOMETHING TO BE ENDURED.

It is time for the church to understand that a lifestyle of repentance OPENS THE DOOR for the Lord to move in our lives!

Repentance brings revival, restoration, renewing, and refining!

Look at the results of repentance:

Joel 2:18–29 NKJV-Then the LORD will be zealous for His land, And pity His people. [19] The LORD will answer and say to His people, “Behold, I will send you grain and new wine and oil, And you will be satisfied by them; I will no longer make you a reproach among the nations. [20] “But I will remove far from you the northern army, And will drive him away into a barren and desolate land, With his face toward the eastern sea And his back toward the western sea; His stench will come up, And his foul odor will rise, Because he has done monstrous things.” [21] Fear not, O land; Be glad and rejoice, For the LORD has done marvelous things! [22] Do not be afraid, you beasts of the field; For the open pastures are springing up, And the tree bears its fruit; The fig tree and the vine yield their strength. [23] Be glad then, you children of Zion, And rejoice in the LORD your God; For He has given you the former rain faithfully, And He will cause the rain to come down for you- The former rain, And the latter rain in the first month. [24] The threshing floors shall be full of wheat, And the vats shall overflow with new wine and oil. [25] “So I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten, The crawling locust, The consuming locust, And the chewing locust, My great army which I sent among you. [26] You shall eat in plenty and be satisfied, And praise the name of the LORD your God, Who has dealt wondrously with you; And My people shall never be put to shame. [27] Then you shall know that I am in the midst of Israel: I am the LORD your God And there is no other. My people shall never be put to shame. [28] “And it shall come to pass afterward That I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh; Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, Your old men shall dream dreams, Your young men shall see visions. [29] And also on My menservants and on My maidservants I will pour out My Spirit in those days.

Do you see what repentance opens?

• The Lord becomes zealous for His land and pities His people.

• He sends grain, new wine, and oil.

• He brings satisfaction and removes reproach.

• He drives the enemy away.

• He causes the land to spring up and bear fruit.

• He sends the former rain and the latter rain.

• He fills the threshing floors and causes the vats to overflow.

• He restores the years the locust has eaten.

• He removes shame and makes His presence known.

• And afterward, He pours out His Spirit on all flesh.

#3: a lifestyle of repentance opens the door to the Lord’s pity, provision, victory, fruitfulness, restoration, presence, and outpouring. Repentance brings revival, restoration, renewing, and refining.

RETURN TO YOUR FIRST LOVE

This is the season for the bride of Christ to RETURN and REPENT, and do the first works again!

Revelation 2:4–5 NKJV-Nevertheless I have this against you, that you have left your first love. [5] Remember therefore from where you have fallen; repent and do the first works, or else I will come to you quickly and remove your lampstand from its place-unless you repent.

Here is how we return:

• Remember where you were before you drifted.

• Repent of every way you have turned from the Lord.

• Return to Jesus as your treasure and first love.

• Do the first works again—seek Him, obey Him, consecrate yourself, and walk in His ways.

• Ask the Holy Spirit to search your heart.

• Confess and forsake what He reveals.

• Stop pursuing your own pleasure and seek His face and the pleasure of His ways.

#4: we return to our first love by remembering, repenting, returning, and doing the first works again.

Friend, this is not a message for somebody else. This is a moment for every one of us to put our own heart before the Lord.

Ask Him right now: “Holy Spirit, search my heart. Show me where I have turned away. Show me what I need to confess and forsake. Bring me back to my first love, and help me do the first works again.”

God is not calling you back so He can beat you down. He is calling you back because He loves you. He longs to send freedom to those who submit to His hand. He longs to restore, renew, refine, and pour out His Spirit. But we must humble ourselves, repent, and return to Him with all our hearts.

The Lord is calling the hurting, the weary, the broken, the battered, the bruised, and the wandering. It is time to come home.

It is time for the church to repent.

It is time to get our hearts back in line with our God.

THIS IS REPENTANCE SEASON.

If the Lord is speaking to your heart through this word, write “I am returning” in the comments. Let that be your declaration: “I am returning to my first love. I am opening my heart to the Holy Spirit. I am choosing a lifestyle of repentance.”

And if you know someone who is hurting, weary, broken, or has wandered away from the Lord, share this video with them. Do not send it in condemnation—send it with compassion. Let them know that Jesus is still calling them home.

If you want to keep growing in strong faith, prayer, revival, repentance, and obedience to the voice of God, subscribe to the channel and turn on notifications. We are going to keep seeking the Lord together, standing for His Word, and preparing our hearts for everything He wants to do.

I am praying for you. Return to the Lord with all your heart. He is gracious. He is merciful. And He is calling His people home.

The spiritual warfare battle you are going through is not just about you, but it has much to do with the Word of God you carry.

This means that the Lord (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit) have a word on your life, a calling, a future, a destiny and purpose. Satan does not only fight against you, but fights against what God says TO you and ABOUT YOU. He attacks our spiritual identity!

This verse carries varying degrees of impact, all the way from the out and out atheist, to those who simply feel like their lives don’t have to come under the authority of the Lord.

It impacts the Remnant because it teaches us the imperative need to LIVE in repentance!

We cannot dismiss sin and rebellion from our lives even if it is in a seemingly small degree or minute area.

Sin is compromise that leads to inquiry which cause bondage!

Be sure to SHARE this word on your social media or with a friend, because this is a pivotal moment for the church!

The Lord is preparing His people for harvest, but preparation requires cultivation. In this episode, I share a timely word about resisting distraction, developing deeper hunger for God, and allowing the Holy Spirit to break up the fallow ground of our hearts. This is a season to press into prayer, obedience, holiness, and the presence of God. The process may be uncomfortable, but God is preparing you to receive and produce what He has promised.

Show Notes

God is looking for men and women who truly want Him.

Not simply people who know about Him, speak about Him, or identify with Him—but people who hunger for His presence, seek Him with their whole heart, and refuse to allow distractions to pull them away from what He is doing.

I believe the Lord is preparing the ground for a coming harvest.

Before ground can produce, it must first be cultivated. Hard soil must be broken. Fallow ground must be turned over. Rocks, weeds, and obstacles must be removed. In the same way, God is working deeply in the hearts of His people.

The process may not always feel comfortable, but cultivation prepares us for fruitfulness.

In this episode, we look at Hebrews 6:7–12 and the Greek word γεωργέω (geōrgéō), meaning “to till” or “to work the land.” Spiritual cultivation requires intentionality. We cooperate with the Holy Spirit as He works through His Word, prayer, repentance, obedience, and consecration.

We also look at Daniel, who refused to allow pressure from the culture around him to interrupt his established life of prayer. When opposition increased, Daniel continued seeking God.

That same call is before us today:

RESIST the pull of distraction.
RESIST the pressure to compromise.
RESIST anything attempting to derail you from what God has spoken.

Stay close to the Lord. Let His Word penetrate deeply into your heart. Cultivate hunger. Cultivate thirst. Cultivate time in His presence.

God is raising up a hungry and thirsty remnant who will seek Him until heaven moves.

Holy moments are birthed in cultivated ground—moments of salvation, healing, deliverance, spontaneous worship, revival, and the overwhelming presence of God.

Hosea 10:12 declares:

“Sow for yourselves righteousness; Reap in mercy; Break up your fallow ground, For it is time to seek the LORD, Till He comes and rains righteousness on you.”

Your heart is the ground, and the Lord is preparing it for harvest.

In this episode:

• Why spiritual hunger matters in this season

• How distraction can derail what God is preparing

• Daniel’s example of persistent prayer

• What it means to actively cultivate your heart

• Why God allows uncomfortable seasons of preparation

• The meaning of “cultivated” in Hebrews 6

• Breaking up spiritual fallow ground

• Cooperating with the Holy Spirit through prayer and the Word

• Preparing yourself to receive and produce a harvest

• The role of repentance, purity, holiness, obedience, and faithfulness

What does cultivation look like?

Repentance.
Purity.
Readiness.
Holiness.
Hunger.
Thirst.
Obedience.
Faithfulness.
Prayer.

If you are walking through a season where it feels like the Lord is digging deeply into your heart, don’t abandon the process.

Remain faithful.

The cultivation is preparing you.

The breaking is preparing you.

The hunger is preparing you.

The prayer is preparing you.

The Lord is preparing the ground for harvest.

This episode of the Remnant Rising podcast urges believers to actively contend for a real move of God—revival—rather than waiting passively for it to arrive. The host emphasizes that revival is happening globally but requires personal and communal engagement, including obedience, consecration, and prayer. He frames revival as life against death and uses a biblical case study, King Hezekiah, to illustrate how proactive reform and radical devotion can invite the Lord’s blessing and prosperity. The message also contrasts worship of past moves with pursuing fresh, present-day work of the Holy Spirit, and ends with practical calls to action (subscribe, share, and pray). The discussion weaves in biblical references (notably David, Moses, and the kings Hoshea, Elah, Ahaz, and Abi with Zechariah as his grandfather) to anchor the call to revival in a historically grounded faith.

Main Points

• Revival is not automatic; it requires contending for it through deliberate actions and choices.

• The church is in a season of revival across the globe, and individuals can jump into God’s current mov e of Spirit.

• Jesus told the disciples to tarry in Jerusalem until endued with power; the implication is that “if tarry, then receive”—there is an if/then dynamic to revival.

Revival is achieved by three core actions:

• Obey your way into revival.

• Consecrate your way into revival.

• Pray your way into revival (including personal, secret-place prayer).

Hezekiah serves as a case study: a king who did what was right in the sight of the Lord, modeled after David, and who actively dismantled idol worship (removing high places, breaking pillars, cutting down the wooden image, and smashing the bronze serpent Nehushtan).

Hezekiah’s reforms demonstrated dependence on the Lord: he held fast to the Lord, kept God’s commandments, and the Lord was with him, causing him to prosper wherever he went.

The text warns against worshiping past moves of God, urging fresh reliance on the present work of the Holy Spirit rather than relics of earlier miracles.

The host discusses current moral issues (including abortion) to illustrate living out righteousness and not merely debating with words; personal obedience and action are essential.

The episode ends with a practical appeals: subscribe, share, and a closing prayer for listeners to be equipped to contend for revival.

Important Details

Biblical setup: Hoshea was the king of Israel; Elah and Ahaz were in the lineage context; Hezekiah began to reign in the 3rd year of

Hoshea, at age 25, and reigned 29 years in Jerusalem; his mother was Abi, daughter of Zechariah.

Hezekiah’s actions (2nd Kings 18, summarized): he removed the high places, broke the sacred pillars, cut down the wooden image, and broke in pieces the bronze serpent Nehushtan which had been worshipped due to old miracles.

Spiritual posture: Hezekiah “held fast to the Lord,” did not depart from Him, and kept God’s commandments given to Moses.

Result for Hezekiah: “the Lord was with him,” and he prospered wherever he went; he even rebelled against the king of Assyria.

The imagery of revival as life in an emergency room: revival means reviving a person from the brink of death, not simply occupying a bed in a building.

Personal stance on moral issues: the host references the debate around abortion and asserts the sanctity of life, tying it to living out God’s standard of righteousness rather than merely discussing it.

Emphasis on the secret place: true revival is anchored in personal, private prayer and obedience, not just public displays.

Key Information

• Central claim: revival requires human initiative and concrete decisions; it is the consequence of premeditated, intentional acts that lead to life.

• Case study reference: Hezekiah as a modern-day analog for revival through decisive reform and faithfulness to God’s standards (mirrored in the life of David).

Core methods to contend for revival:

• Obedience to God’s standard of living and commandments (not relying on outward religiosity or past moves).

• Consecration—setting oneself apart from cultural norms to remain distinct in holiness.

• Prayer—especially personal, secret-place prayer as the primary engine of revival.

• The host’s exhortation to live out revival in the face of cultural and moral challenges, including calls to stand for life and righteousness.

Engagement prompts: subscription and sharing to spread the message; a closing prayer asking for God to empower listeners to contend for revival.

Conclusion

The episode argues that revival is active and negotiable, not passive history. By studying Hezekiah, believers learn that true revival flows from obeying God’s commands, consecrating oneself to God, and maintaining intimate prayer with Him. The presence of the Lord with a person or a nation brings prosperity and victory over opposition, illustrating that revival is both spiritual and practical. The call to action is clear: engage with the message, subscribe, share, and press into personal revival through obedience, consecration, and prayer, trusting that the Holy Spirit will move in the present hour through the remnant who hunger for God.

Episode 232-Praying Battlefield prayers

00:00:06

Hey, welcome back to the Remnant Rising podcast. I’m really glad that you’re here today. The Lord wants to do something great in your life.

00:00:14

He wants to just drop something good into you. And I want to kind of talk along this lines of what he’s trying to press into my heart right at the moment. And I’ll just start with this context.

00:00:29

It’s been really, really hard lately to have anything that seems to come easily. Whether it be prayer times, times in scripture, times in worship, this podcast, all of it has been really hard. Nothing has worked out right, even down to the technology.

00:00:53

It’s just like everywhere you turn, there is an issue and a problem. And I really feel like there’s several things happening that the enemy is trying to wear down the people of God. He’s trying to wear down the people of God.

00:01:10

And you need to know that. You need to know there is a constant attack and onslaught right now to wear you down, to get you to a point where, well, you’re not going to give up, you’re going to love Jesus and all of those things, don’t misunderstand, but the fervency of your spirit is being attacked. And it seems like with each passing moment and every passing day, that maybe you’re getting further and further away from what the Lord is seeking to do in your life.

00:01:44

You’re under attack, all right? He’s trying to wear you down little by little. Friend, you have to not give in to that.

00:01:53

You have to not give in to that. I know here’s what he’s trying to speak to me. Here’s what the Lord’s trying to push into my heart right now. And I felt like I needed to share this with you here on this podcast, because God has

00:02:06

a remnant that he is raising up. You’re already rising. God is bringing John the Baptist out of the wilderness, voices in the wilderness, preparing the way of the Lord.

00:02:16

Revival is not only here, but it’s coming. Jesus is coming. And these are the reasons the enemy is fighting us.

00:02:26

And so with that in mind, I know for me, my prayer time has been really attacked lately. Just so attacked. It seems like there’s no time and it seems like the level of exhaustion has just been on the rise exponentially.

00:02:42

Can you relate to that, anybody? And as a planner and as one who loves to plan times in the presence of the Lord, it’s been really hard and difficult to not seem or feel like I’ve had that place, that space, that time. It’s just unfettered and unhindered and you just take it in the presence of the Lord. But it seems like from the moment you wake up to the moment you go to sleep at night,

00:03:10

there’s a constant barrage of things, of people, of activities. And I know the easy solution is to say, well, set it aside. Listen, friend, you can’t always set it aside.

00:03:25

Some of these things are must, must happen types of things. And I’m praying, Lord, I just want to be in your presence. Lord, just help me.

00:03:36

And all of a sudden he brings this verse to my mind. It’s in Romans 12, 12. And I want to say the King James Version is the way this reads.

00:03:45

He said continuing instant in prayer, instant. New King James says continuing steadfastly in prayer. I like the way it reads when he says continuing instant in prayer, because there are some times when you’re in the heat of the battle and on the battlefield that you don’t have just unfettered moment after moment after moment to pray and just simply to be alone with nothing going on.

00:04:18

You’re in a battle. How would a soldier in a battle have this unfettered time? Well, the answer is in the heat of the battle, they wouldn’t. And if you’re in the heat of a battle right now, then what you’ve got to do is you’ve got to continue instant in prayer, instant in prayer, whether you’re in season or out

00:04:41

of season. Sometimes it feels like the time we have is in season and it’s just easier, it makes more sense, things work out, everything flows better. But when you’re on the cusp of a of a giant breakthrough, as I believe many people in the remnant are right now, you’re on the cusp of a giant breakthrough, the Lord is about to pour out his spirit, move with power. Conan, I’ve seen that I’m most sure that he’s about to do what you’ve longed and prayed

00:05:20

for and what he’s promised. In the middle of that, you are in a battle for the very soul of who you are, the enemy senses the timing, he senses it all, and he unleashes the forces of hell against you. And and we know that he’s been defeated already and all of that stuff.

00:05:38

We get that. But there’s this wearing down of the saints. There’s this attack on your time.

00:05:42

There’s this attack on your prayer life. There’s this attack on your time in God’s word and in the presence of the Lord. You’re on the battlefield. Can I just interject this continue instant in prayer, continue steadfastly in prayer in the middle of the battlefield, at your workplace, in the marketplace, at the grocery store, in the line, online, at the doctor’s office for your visit, at the school, wherever

00:06:21

you find yourself. Don’t be afraid to pray right there. The secret place is not just a specific time and place.

00:06:34

The secret place is wherever you make it. Wow. Come again.

00:06:40

Oh, I see. I feel you, Jesus. The secret place is wherever you make it to be, wherever you choose to spend that time

00:06:49

with the Lord. That’s your secret place, that place. I’m reminded of when I was a really young believer, I was saved when I was 14 years old, so I’m still in school, was in high school.

00:07:05

And I remember taking my Bible with me. I would set it up on the right front corner of my desk and as class would go on, I would sense the presence of the Lord. And I’ve always kind of been a feeler like that, sensing the presence of the Lord, sensing the voice of the Lord, I wouldn’t trade anything for it.

00:07:23

I love it. I want to encourage it more and more. I want to grow it, develop it. But there will be times when I would realize all I have to do to go to the secret place

00:07:34

is just close my eyes just for a moment and pray in my heart to Jesus. Nobody around me knows anything that’s taken place. Nobody around me knows anything that’s going on.

00:07:45

But I’m literally having a moment with the Lord in that moment. And I’m going to tell you the truth of the secret place just began to be a reality in my life that at any time, at any time I could just begin to seek his face, at any time I could just begin to pour out my heart to him. And friend, that is the heart and essence of a battlefield prayer, a battlefield prayer that says in the meanwhile, the enemy is staring at me, while the enemy is shooting his darts, while the enemy is throwing his spear, while the enemy is attacking me with his words and his onslaught, I’m literally going to just bow down in prayer.

00:08:24

I’m going to close my eyes. I’m going to pray in the spirit, even I’m going to be unashamed, bold, no matter where I’m at, to just pray. Moteke, say, but in the Holy Spirit and understand that the Lord Jesus is there. And that for planners and preparers and for people who just really love to soak in the

00:08:49

presence of the Lord, it can be difficult because it feels like you’re rushed. How many people know life rushes at us, right? But also we need we need to understand deeply the heart of the father, that he loves you and he wants you to have a life of prayer, not just a moment of prayer.

00:09:11

And I think God is trying to press this into me and asking me to deliver it to you. And I believe even in my church at some point, because the essence of the battle right now has shifted and we’re on the battlefield, we’re about to receive the promises of God and the good things of God. And you can’t fall right now because the enemy is trying to steal your time.

00:09:37

You have to learn what it means to live a life of prayer on the battlefield. In the midst of the trial, in the midst of the problem, in the midst of the pain, in the midst of the misunderstanding and what you don’t know how to fix, you’ve got to learn how to be a battlefield remnant warrior that is raising up in this hour to proclaim the glory of the Lord and the goodness of God in the land of the living right where you are at. Remember what the Bible said?

00:10:04

He sets a table before me in the presence of my enemies. Let me say that again, friend, hear what that says. He sets a table, a table before me in the presence of my enemies, a table that is spread with the good things of God, a table that is spread with the blessing of God, the presence of God, the feast of his love pouring into us, the oil of the Holy Spirit. Most often we want to have those times just between us and the Lord, but

00:10:39

the reality is the enemy is is seems to always be there. Well, guess what? I’m going to let him set a table before me in the presence of my enemy. I’m going to knock the devil’s teeth out as he watches me give glory, praise and honor to the name of Jesus and soak in the hot oil of the Holy Spirit, even while the devil throws his darts at me, knowing that the shield of my faith is going to

00:11:08

quench every fiery dart of the wicked friend. Now is the time for continuing instant in prayer. Now is the time for battlefield prayers. It’s the time to launch out and hold on with all that you have because the God of

00:11:24

the universe is moving powerfully and about to keep his promises to you. I just feel that prophetic function in my heart. And so at the closing of this short episode, I want to take a moment and I want to just pray with you and for you and just believe together with you for the good things of God to come to pass in your life.

00:11:50

So take a moment right now and pray with me. OK, would you do that? Heavenly Father, in the name of Jesus, I pray, God, for every listener.

00:12:03

Lord, I pray that you would empower them with the might of your Holy Spirit. I pray, Jesus, that your presence would overwhelm and overshadow them, even in the midst of their trouble or pain and on the battlefield. Lord, you’re raising up a remnant, you’re raising up a people, Elijah’s John the Baptist’s, Esther’s, Nehemiah’s, Mordecai’s.

00:12:30

Lord, you’re raising them up. Jesus, you’re about to fulfill your powerful and precious word to them. Don’t let them give up, don’t let them quit, empower and strengthen them. With might in their inner man through your Holy Spirit, set a table before them in

00:12:46

the very presence of their enemy and let their cup overflow. Jesus, I thank you. We love you.

00:12:55

We give you praise for you alone are worthy in Jesus name. Amen. Friend, one final thing I want to ask a favor of you.

We are living in a time where everyone has a voice.

Social media is loud.

Podcasts are everywhere.

Opinions are constant.

But here’s the real question…

Are those voices actually echoing Heaven?

In Gospel of John chapter 12, Jesus makes something incredibly clear—He did not speak on His own authority. He spoke what the Father commanded Him to say.

That means every word Jesus released carried the weight of Heaven.

And if we’re going to have real impact in this generation, it won’t come from clever ideas, trending content, or cultural relevance…

👉 It will come from becoming echoes of God’s heart.

There Are Many Voices… But Not All Are Truth

Right now, there are countless voices claiming to speak truth.

But not all truth is truth.

There are alternative gospels rising—messages that:

* Remove the power of the blood of Jesus

* Downplay the resurrection

* Reject the work of the Holy Spirit

* Dismiss the gifts and power of God

That’s not just error…

That’s a form of godliness without power.

And the danger?

It sounds close enough to truth that people follow it.

But friend—if it doesn’t align with the Word of God, it’s not from God.

You Cannot Replace the Word of God

We live in a time where people are replacing Scripture with:

* Podcasts

* Social media clips

* Personal opinions

* Cultural interpretations

But the Word of God is not optional.

It is:

* Living

* Powerful

* Transforming

* Unchanging

You don’t outgrow it.

You don’t edit it.

You don’t reinterpret it to fit culture.

You anchor your life to it.

The Holy Spirit Is Not Optional

There is a growing resistance in some circles against the work of the Holy Spirit.

People want salvation… without surrender.

Christianity… without power.

Truth… without transformation.

But you cannot separate:

* The Father

* The Son

* The Holy Ghost

Salvation is not just a decision—it is a transformation empowered by the Spirit of God.

We don’t need less of the Holy Spirit in this hour…

We need more.

Jesus Was an Echo of Heaven… And So Are We

Jesus didn’t come to speak His own message.

He came to reveal the Father.

And now, as believers, we carry that same assignment.

We are not called to:

* Build our own message

* Create our own gospel

* Follow cultural trends

We are called to echo Heaven.

That means:

* Speaking what God says

* Standing on the Word

* Walking in the Spirit

* Living with authority

The Remnant Must Rise

This is the hour for the Remnant Church to rise.

Not passive.

Not silent.

Not compromised.

But bold.

Anchored.

Spirit-filled.

We need believers who will:

* Pray with power

* Speak with authority

* Believe for healing

* Walk in bold obedience

* Open their mouths and declare truth

Not just in church…

But online, in homes, in conversations, everywhere.

Don’t just consume voices.

Become one.

But not just any voice…

👉 Become a voice that echoes Heaven.

Let your words be shaped by the Word.

Let your life be led by the Spirit.

Let your message reflect Jesus.

And watch what God does through you.

There will always be a battle for your time with God. Distraction, busyness, weariness, spiritual resistance, and the pressures of life will always try to pull you away from prayer. But the secret place is not optional for the believer. It is where your heart is strengthened, your future is shaped, and your life is prepared for the purposes of God.

This message is a call to move beyond occasional encounters with God and into a daily, heart-deep life of prayer. If prayer has become a checklist, it is time for it to become a heart connection again. If you already spend time with the Lord, it is time to press in for more. Prayer is not just something we do. Prayer is our life.

This episode also carries a strong call to the remnant, the watchmen, the intercessors, and the prayer warriors God is raising up in this hour. Prayer is not only about personal needs. There are assignments from the Lord. There are families, churches, communities, cities, and nations that need believers who will stand in the gap and contend for the will of God to be done on earth as it is in heaven.

Now is not the time for powerless Christianity. Now is not the time to drift, coast, or depend only on occasional moments with God. This is a vital hour for the Church to pray with perseverance, seek God with fresh hunger, and be filled with the Holy Spirit.

Little prayer equals little presence.
Little presence equals little joy.
Little joy equals little strength.
Little strength equals defeat.

But prayer equals victory.

The secret place will cost you your time, your attention, and your surrender, but it will also sustain the weight of everything God wants to do in your life.

Scriptures in this episode include: Matthew 6:5–6, Matthew 6:10, Matthew 11:12, and Ephesians 6:12.

• 1 Thessalonians 4:16–18

• Mark 13

🔥 Overview

In this episode, we dive into Jesus’ parable of the ten virgins in Matthew 25—a powerful and prophetic warning to the Church today.

Jesus reveals that not everyone who looks ready is ready.

Half of those waiting for the Bridegroom were unprepared because they lacked oil—symbolizing a real, ongoing relationship with the Holy Spirit. This message is a wake-up call for the remnant to stay spiritually alert, pursue intimacy with Jesus, and live ready for His return.

⚡ The Big Picture

We are living in a time where the Church is being divided:

• A falling away from truth

• A remnant rising in power and purity

This message calls believers to choose which side they will be on.

🕯️ Breaking Down Matthew 25

1. This Is About the Church (v.1)

Jesus is speaking to the kingdom of heaven—not the world.
This is a message for believers.

2. Lamps Without Oil (vv. 2–4)

• All ten had lamps → outward appearance of faith

• Only five had extra oil → inward reality of relationship

The difference wasn’t appearance—it was oil.

3. The Danger of Spiritual Sleep (v.5)

• All the virgins fell asleep

• Even sincere believers can drift into complacency

4. The Midnight Cry (vv. 6–7)

• Suddenly, the Bridegroom comes

• Everyone wakes up—but not everyone is ready

There can be noise, excitement, and movement…
but only those with oil will endure.

5. You Can’t Borrow Oil (vv. 8–9)

• The foolish tried to borrow from the wise

• But oil is personal—it cannot be transferred

Oil costs something:

• Time in prayer

• Obedience

• Surrender

• A daily “yes” to Jesus

6. The Closed Door (vv. 10–12)

• The prepared go in

• The door shuts

A last-minute relationship with Jesus isn’t possible.

7. The Command: Stay Awake (v.13)

Jesus’ message is clear:

👉 Be watchful
👉 Be ready
👉 Stay filled

📢 Supporting Truths

• 1 Thessalonians 5:9 – We are not appointed to wrath

• 1 Thessalonians 4:16–18 – Jesus is returning

• Mark 13 – Stay alert so you’re not found sleeping

💡 Key Takeaways

• Outward Christianity without inward oil is not enough

• Spiritual sleep happens when we neglect intimacy with God

• Oil is built daily, not borrowed last-minute

• Readiness is a lifestyle, not a moment

• Jesus is coming back—and we must be ready

🙏 Your Response

• Prioritize daily time with God in prayer and Scripture

• Ask the Holy Spirit to continually refill your life

• Turn away from complacency, distraction, and sin

• Give Jesus a full, surrendered “yes”

• Encourage others to stay awake and be ready

🔥 Final Word

This is a wake-up call:

Stay awake. Keep your oil. Be ready.

The cost of preparation is nothing compared to the cost of being unprepared.

🙌 Prayer

Lord, awaken Your Church.
Stir hunger for Your presence again.
Refill us with fresh oil of the Holy Spirit.
Help us stay awake, stay ready, and stay faithful.

Heal bodies, restore hearts, and prepare Your remnant for Your return.

In Jesus’ name, Amen.

This morning I woke up to a thought running through my mind repeatedly.

It went like this: “Your only protection from deception is to stay in prayer and in My Word.”

Usually, when I receive a word from the Lord similar to this, there seems to be some sort of backstory idea He also seeks to communicate with me, and this word did have another idea attached to it. The unspoken impression I received from the Lord was just as immediate as the thought had been—the word and prayer are linked. You cannot trade one for the other; you cannot only read the word or only pray.

These two spiritual activities will never work properly when they are done in isolation from each other. The word works in us as we pray, and as we pray, we respond to the word. In my heart, I felt the Lord’s emphasis was on prayer. The message He seemed to be conveying was, “Many read the word, but few actually spend time in prayer, actively listening for My voice and seeking to pursue My presence and know Me.”

The implication was that if we read the word but never pray, we come to a place where we think we know the Lord well, but actually, we only know about Him. Reading scripture but never spending time in prayer is like reading a biography about someone famous—we learn all about them and feel acquainted with them, but we do not fully know them on a personal level.

Reading scripture while coupling it with sincere daily prayer sets our hearts before the Lord, transforming the word from a biography into a text message. Prayer causes the word to become an active conversation between God and us.

I’ve read many blog posts and Facebook posts over the years, and I’m sure you have too. But these are only one-sided unless I leave a comment. Many times when I have commented, the author has responded to me personally. Prayer is our place to have dialogue with God. It is not a one-sided request session, although requests are accepted and encouraged. Prayer is the place where God communes with us by His Spirit and speaks the life-giving truths of His word in our hearts on a personal and applicational level.

Furthermore, without prayer, we cannot say we truly have a dialogue with God. It is no longer enough to simply know about Him; we must truly come to know Him on this personal level.

Let me also say that prayer without the word is also unbalanced.

When we never take time to read scripture, our prayers become more than just superficial and selfish; they can become dangerous to us because when we think we hear the Lord speak in our hearts, we do not have a foundational basis of truth to weigh our impressions against.

I’ll be clear: God still speaks in our hearts.

His voice always supports His written word, and what I hear in my heart must always be weighed against what He has already revealed about Himself through the written word.

Our protection from deception takes on its greatest strength when the Holy Spirit has been given a resource to draw from in our lives—when the Holy Spirit has scripture available that we have hidden in our hearts, He will use it to communicate in the present tense by using what was written in the past.

Scripture that is over two thousand years old becomes fresh and new when the Lord pulls it from the recesses of our hearts and breathes upon it to make application in our present.

There is so much swirl and contradiction happening in the earth and in the church at the present moment. Voices you have looked to for guidance seem shaky, and you can be left feeling overwhelmed by what you see, hear, and feel. Instead of retreating from the battle and giving in to your fears, start drawing close to the only voice that will never change—Jesus.

This is an hour when deception is at an all-time high, and this deception will only increase as the last days wind down to their conclusion. The only voice that we can ultimately trust is scripture, coupled with the internal voice of the Holy Spirit.

Listen to what Jesus says in scripture about the Holy Spirit.

John 16:13-15 NKJV—”However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth; for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears, He will speak; and He will tell you things to come. [14] He will glorify Me, for He will take of what is Mine and declare it to you. [15] All things that the Father has are Mine. Therefore I said that He will take of Mine and declare it to you.”

Prayer is vital because through prayer, the Holy Spirit takes the words of Jesus and uses them to guide us. As we take time in the Lord’s presence—just being there, spending time, worshipping Him—the Holy Spirit softens our hearts and works in us what is well-pleasing in the sight of God.

During prayer, we submit our hearts to the Lord and come under His Lordship, and the Spirit speaks in our hearts. What He speaks always agrees with the written word. The litmus test of hearing God’s voice is: Does this word align with scripture? If not, throw it out!

Our time in prayer and in the word, when it is sincere and truly desires to seek the Lord, develops in us a protective wall against the deception of the present age.

Friend, deception is not just something that will happen after the rapture, but it is something that is already at work and will only grow stronger.

Listen to what Paul says to the church in Thessalonians.

2 Thessalonians 2:9-12 NKJV—”The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders, [10] and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved. [11] And for this reason God will send them strong delusion, that they should believe the lie, [12] that they all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness.”

Prayer and the word breed a love for the truth in our hearts. This love for truth and the desire to walk in it is used by the Holy Spirit to create a firewall against the deception of the present age.

When you can no longer discern which voices are godly, ungodly, safe, trustworthy, or true, turn to prayer and the word. Let the most influential voice in your life be the Lord’s voice.

We’ve reached a point when every voice and every message must be weighed against the truth of scripture. God’s people have always been called to inspect fruit. The message of truth is backed up by the holiness of fruit.

Friend, don’t throw away your desire for an experience with God.

No, we cannot build our foundation for faith on experiences. We build upon the word. But experiences of the Lord’s voice, His presence, His power, and His love serve to add reality to the word that speaks to our hearts in a personal way.

This moment in history demands a church that will pray and soak in the word.

Here’s what Jesus said would happen in the last days:

Mark 13:21-23 NKJV—”Then if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Christ!’ or, ‘Look, He is there!’ do not believe it. [22] For false christs and false prophets will rise and show signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect. [23] But take heed; see, I have told you all things beforehand.”

Remnant, it’s time to put on our protection from deception.

Yes, the Lord Still Moves in Miracles, Signs, and Wonders.

There is a huge swirl and controversy surrounding the truth of supernatural ministry and the things of God. It seems everywhere we turn, someone is trying to defend another person, or a church is trying to declare why they are the one that has a corner on truth.

Openly, I admit that I do not have all the answers.

My prayer in this hour is that my Heavenly Father would grant me a wise and discerning heart.

We need hearts that remain open and sensitive to the Holy Spirit and to the leading of His hand. With this being said, what I hope to do in this short article is shine a light on what I perceive as truth, whether you agree with me or not.

My debate is not about a person, a church, or a group.

It is about the truthfulness and veracity of scripture, which is what I feel is being undermined in quiet and also overt ways.

The whole Bible is true cover to cover. There isn’t a piece of it that is untrue. If one book, one chapter, or one word of scripture is a lie, then the whole book is worthless and to be thrown out. The problem is, instead of looking to the character and nature of God, we are looking at the fallibility of man and judging the truth of God by the deeds of men.

Man has never been the measuring rod by which we are to judge the goodness, mercy, character, gifts, or love of God. So often, man gets it wrong, but God never does.

There is a growing push to actually remove the things of the supernatural from the hearts and minds of those who would believe in the miracle working power of God. Allow me to say that from Genesis to Revelation and everywhere in between, the Bible is an unapologetically supernatural book.

From water flowing out of a rock and food falling from heaven to the judgment of Satan and the new Heavens and new earth, the Bible is built upon a bedrock foundation of supernatural truths and experiences that go beyond the comprehension of man’s limited understanding.

God Himself declares, “For I am the Lord. I do not change.” (Malachi 3:6)

If the Lord never changes, it also means that His character never changes. Who He is and what He does is part of the makeup of His nature. We trust in a changeless God because His unwavering nature gives us strength and stability in a shaky world.

But what this changeless nature also means is that everything written about Him is still true. The entire ministry of the New Testament church was built around the supernatural moving of the Holy Spirit.

Jesus came and fulfilled the Old Testament law, becoming the embodiment of what it means to live in true obedience to the Father. Then Jesus introduced a new covenant based upon better promises. One of those better promises was the gift of the Holy Spirit given to the church. This took place on the day of Pentecost when the early disciples were baptized with the Holy Spirit and power, with fire. They spoke in tongues, and the entire city ran to see what had taken place. (Acts 2)

The entry of the Holy Spirit into the world did not happen in a quiet stable like the way our Savior came. Instead, the Holy Spirit came with power, wind, and fire. He moved the city, and His ministry through the church turned the world upside down.

People were healed, delivered from demons, and set free from bondage. Entire cities burned their witchcraft books and dark art materials. Scripture declares that even the very shadow of the Apostle Peter walking down the road caused people under the shadow to be healed.

Not once was it even hinted that all the supernatural working of the Holy Spirit has or would just disappear from the church one day.

With this being said, it also makes sense that the gifts of the Spirit listed in First Corinthians are still real and available to us today.

While we should not build our spiritual life upon experiences, to claim that God is so silent that we never have experiences is to reduce Him to a dumb idol. Just because there are excesses by some does not mean there is not truth that Scripture supports.

I am personally thankful for every experience I’ve ever had with the Lord.

Several years ago, my earthly dad, my father-in-law, and I built the house my family now lives in. We contracted out parts, but most of it was built with our own hands and hammers. We crawled through the trusses and helped hang the sheet rock. We drove nails, cut boards, and put in windows. Not everyone has this kind of experience with their dad, but I did. It is something we shared. To say that because most people simply buy a house, that my experience of building a house never happened would be crazy.

Your experience cannot erase my experience, neither can my experience erase yours.

As a young believer I sincerely desired to be filled with the Holy Spirit along with the evidence of speaking in other tongues. I prayed and prayed, yet nothing ever seemed to materialize. I grew up in a church where this was practiced, and I personally knew the lives of those who prayed in tongues. It was a small, close-knit church where everyone knew all about the others in the church, so I had no reason to doubt their experiences or to disbelieve it when they prayed in tongues, even though my experience had yet to happen.

I vividly remember having a dream one night. In the dream, I could see myself outside, and it was night. All at once, the Lord filled me (in the dream) with the Holy Spirit, and in the dream, I began to speak in tongues. I could hear my own voice praying in the Spirit in the dream. This seemed to last for hours. When I woke up, there was a tangible presence of God in my room that I will never forget.

As I sought the baptism in the Holy Spirit, another experience began to happen. I would have glimpses in my mind of myself praying in tongues. I could hear my voice praying loudly in the Spirit in an unknown tongue. At one point, I thought, “This is crazy. I don’t know anyone else this has ever happened to.” I hesitated to tell anyone but eventually told my fiancé about what was happening, but I told no one else.

At one particular church service, everyone was being prayed for. Usually, back then I was a shy person who never sought to be in the fray or have any attention drawn to me, so I sat back and tried to be as invisible as I could. A trusted, precious friend, a man of God much older than me at the time, called me out and wanted to pray for me. I never told him that I desired to be filled with the Holy Spirit. I never told him I had never prayed in tongues. But as he prayed for me, suddenly he stopped, looked intensely into my eyes, and said, “The Lord is telling me you are hearing it in your mind, and if you will let it out, He will fill you with the Holy Spirit.”

The fact that this man knew what was actually happening inside my head freaked me out! Had I not known him personally, and still know him today, I might have thought something crazy was happening. However, I knew instantly the Lord showed him something about me.

I didn’t “let out” what was in my head.

What I did do was pray when I got alone in my car on the way home. I told the Lord, “You know that I didn’t tell that man about what I’m hearing. That had to be You. Lord, I’m going to try it.” So I quietly began to say the words of the Holy Spirit I heard in my mind, and all at once, a rush of power filled my body, and I began to pray in the Spirit more deeply. I cried out, “That wasn’t me! That was YOU!”

Since that day over thirty years ago, I have prayed in the Spirit nearly every day of my life.

Now, not everyone has had the same experiences I had. Not everyone has had a dream or received a prophetic word of knowledge to be filled with the baptism of the Holy Spirit. Apparently, these were things my Heavenly Father thought I needed for whatever reason, so He gifted me an experience that was mine alone.

Not once have I ever preached that my experience was the norm or the biblical way in which everyone has to be filled with the Spirit. Yet, my experience does not undermine the truth of the Baptism in the Holy Spirit.

In the same way, all the gifts of the Spirit and the fruit of the Spirit are still true, real, and available. We cannot pick and choose to simply throw away certain fruits or certain gifts because of the excesses or even abuses of some. Scripture is still true from cover to cover.

My experiences with the prophetic gifting have largely been positive, but not completely. For instance, my wife and I were once prophesied over, being given a very specific personal word. This prophetic word was given in front of the whole church. Guess what? The word did not come to pass.

However, as we prayed about this specific area of our lives on a personal basis, God gave us specific words of knowledge about it. My wife and I received these prophetic words during a prayer time in our home between just the two of us. These words didn’t come through someone else; they were given to my wife and me as we prayed over our desire and need. Guess what? The words He gave us came to pass. They proved true down to the last sentence.

When we received a word that should have and could have disrupted our spiritual walk, we were left with a choice.

We could either judge that all prophetic words were not from God, lay down our belief in the supernatural nature of God, and walk away, or we could realize that men and women are never perfect, and they will undoubtedly “miss” it sometimes.

Let me also say, prophetic words are in NO WAY on the same level as scripture. Scripture will always remain superior to any prophetic word a person may receive.

If a word is not backed up by scripture, you should not believe it. If a prophetic word speaks to the supernatural nature of God without having a certain scripture, you should pray into it.

We prayed into the word we received many, many times.

Ultimately, we felt the Lord had a different plan for our lives.

When you plant your faith in man, you will always be led down a pathway that is shifting and swaying. But when you plant your faith in the unshakeable nature of God and His word, there is no reason to be shaken when someone comes along with a “word” that seems off.

Scripture says something very important about spiritual gifts in 1 Corinthians.

1 Corinthians 14:31-33 NKJV—For you can all prophesy one by one, that all may learn and all may be encouraged. [32] And the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets. [33] For God is not the author of confusion but of peace, as in all the churches of the saints.

We are supposed to judge the gifts of the Spirit, and we should. It also declares to us what Gifts of the Spirit are meant for: encouragement. They are not meant to bring confusion, but encouragement.

As believers, we all have the Holy Spirit inside of us. He speaks to us. He leads us. He gives us guidance.

What this means for us personally is that we do not need another person to come along and give us a “word” in order to hear from God. Your Heavenly Father will personally speak to you. Prophetic words come alongside in order to confirm or bring clarity to what the Lord has already spoken.

There are many believers who do not believe God can still speak.

If you mention something about how the Lord spoke to you, they roll their eyes in disbelief, yet I wouldn’t trade my experiences of the Lord’s voice or His presence for any amount of money. His voice is my precious daily delight. He speaks in my heart like a Father, and I would never want to give up His presence or His voice. I know it is real.

If ever there is a moment, and there have been, when it seems that what I heard may not agree with scripture, I instantly begin to pray into what I heard. I ask for clarity and discernment. I don’t assume I get it right every time. There have been a few times when I’ve had to say to myself, “Maybe I didn’t hear this correctly.” I’ve also had to say on occasion, “I don’t completely understand what the Lord is trying to say here.”

So I set aside those “words” and go back to “the Word” and seek His face.

But what I do not want to do is mistake my fallibility for God’s inability.

He is supernatural in every way and able to speak. I am fallible, not always hearing correctly. However, if scripture is my bedrock, I will declare along with scripture, “You will work INTO me what is well-pleasing in Your sight.”

Never assume you have arrived. Never assume you know scripture perfectly. Never assume you get it right every time.

But always assume there is something more about the Lord you can learn. Always assume that you have been given an ability to hear His voice, and cultivate your hearing. Always assume that the Lord seeks to press you more deeply into the things of God and into His nature.

I’m not really sure how to end this article, other than to say, “I pray for those who have been blatantly abused spiritually. I pray their hearts and lives will come to a place of healing. I pray that they will still cling to the goodness of God even though they have experienced the hurt and sinfulness of man.”

But I also pray that the church will not throw away the gifts of the Spirit or the supernatural nature of God because of the excesses or abuses of man.

Man’s stupidity and ignorance never cancels the Lord’s wisdom and power.

We are in the beginning stages of the greatest revival in the history of the world.

Jesus is about to return.

The church wins!

Let’s do everything in our power to see lost people come to repentance and for the church to wake up spiritually.

Let’s pray like we have never prayed in order to see the miracle-working power of God reach people who are hurting, truly heal them, and bind up their wounds.

Let’s allow the precious Holy Spirit to be who He longs to be among us and not quench His working or stop His hand.

Today is still a day of miracles, signs, and wonders for those who will press into the Lord and seek His face.

A Word To The Remnant—A Prophetic Company of Believers Is Rising

The Lord is calling out a prophetic company of people as we move into 2026 and beyond.These will be ones who hear His word because He will speak to their hearts.

This is something new.

Many have not experienced what they are about to encounter. The word of the Lord will begin to come to their hearts and minds.

When you pray, the Lord says, “I will drop My word into your heart, and you will feel compelled to release it.” For many, it will be through spoken words to and over people, whether in a church setting or in the grocery store. You will begin to sense and feel a word from the Lord.

When this happens, you need to speak it, for this is the Holy Spirit opening a door for you to obey in the moment toward the one who needs the word.

Others will sense these words coming to them, and they will need to write them down.

Share them online.

Share them with family and friends.

Release the words He speaks, “for in doing this, you are becoming obedient and setting in place the tools and messages I need to reach those upon whom I am about to move,” says the Lord.

If it means recording a video, do it. If He moves upon you to write, do it. Move without fear and let go of any apprehension about what others will think of you.

The message the Holy Spirit puts in your mind is intended to reach people, and in some instances, it serves a particular purpose. You must let go of the fear of man and not be bound by what others perceive about you. The Lord is doing a new work, so let Him complete it in you.

He is not calling you to be the most eloquent or the smartest person in the room. The Holy Spirit does not need the influence and wisdom of man to reach those He is seeking to reach. What the Lord needs from you as you sense this new experience is someone who will have a willing heart and an obedient hand.

For some, this could mean that the Lord gives you very specific words for another person, and you may feel led to text them the message. This will be hard for some of you to do, but be obedient and be ready. Do not add to what the Lord gives you. Let it stand for what it is and allow it to stand on its own merit. God’s word never returns void.

You may have never considered yourself someone who would walk in a prophetic company because of the teaching that has been done about prophetic people. However, in these last days, the Lord is waking up His Remnant and pressing His thoughts and words into their spirits to prepare the way for harvest before the return of Jesus. His return is soon.

As you release these words the Holy Spirit plants into your mind, they will reach God’s intended target, and He will prepare the way for a massive harvest.

The harvest will come on a large scale, but it will also come to individuals—one person at a time. This is one reason it is vital for the Remnant to respond to the prompting of the Holy Spirit as they sense Him placing a word in their minds.

The word God gives you may be the exact word that a specific person needs to hear in order to come back into alignment with the Lord and become prepared for the return of Jesus.

This is a massive release of people into the prophetic company all across the earth.

Be ready.

Do not be afraid to step into something that feels new.

The Lord is about to use you as His mouthpiece to reach people, and for many, this is something you never even saw coming.

Let me pray for you…

“Abba, use and equip those You are calling and about to call in this hour. Let their hearts become open to something they have never experienced before. Holy Spirit, let Your presence become more real to them and instill in them a ready and obedient heart to perform what You ask of them. In Jesus name, Amen.”

Psalm 45:1 NKJV—My heart is overflowing with a good theme; I recite my composition concerning the King; My tongue is the pen of a ready writer.Remnant, allow your tongue to be the pen of a ready writer!

I hear the Spirit of the Lord saying over and over, “I’m not finished with you yet!”

In the spirit realm, there is shifting and movement. Something is taking place, and the Lord is preparing to do a work in His people. Where you thought the time was up and the plan was complete is only the starting point.

You have no idea the magnitude of the Lord’s work and plan for the next season. With God, there is always a next. He is creating ways and means where they currently do not exist. So what does the Remnant need to do in this hour? We need to prepare ourselves.

We, the people of God, need to spend our time soaking in His presence and seeking His face for an outpouring in our lives, allowing the Holy Spirit to renew strength and vitality within us.

People of God, the time to make things ready is NOW!

The kingdom of God is enlarging and moving, and our part is to continue the work of the Kingdom. As the Lord prepares and clears pathways of blessing, outpouring, and salvation, our role is to faithfully act and sow His Word as we always have.

This is not the time to stop and simply watch. We need to awaken to see what the Lord is doing, and with a watchful eye, a working hand, and life-giving words, keep ourselves engaged in the business of the Kingdom. The book of Mark contains a passage that speaks to what we must do in this hour.

Mark 4:26-29 NKJV—And He said, “The kingdom of God is as if a man should scatter seed on the ground, [27] and should sleep by night and rise by day, and the seed should sprout and grow; he himself does not know how. [28] For the earth yields crops by itself: first the blade, then the head, after that the full grain in the head. [29] But when the grain ripens, immediately he puts in the sickle, because the harvest has come.”

We are ambassadors in the Kingdom of God. This is a new mindset for many. The fact that we are actually invested with authority and given power through the Holy Spirit to speak words of life over dead situations and expect them to rise up is significant. This is what He has committed to the church.

It is a message of power and reconciliation. We are drawing the lost with every word we say, as we echo His words over our lives, families, and situations. God is creating a harvest from your words as you plant His words in the soil of your life.

From the previous scriptures in this chapter, we know that the seed being sown and spoken of is the Word of God. How easy it is to forget to sow the seed in and over your life. The church must take greater care to sow life instead of thinking and speaking death. As you read scripture, you find that the kingdom has always hinged on the spoken word of God, and for this reason alone, Satan wants to silence you.

Mark declares that the Kingdom is like a man scattering seed on the ground. The ground represents our hearts. From the previous parable, Jesus makes this clear. What does the Bible say regarding our hearts? Scripture teaches us that out of the heart flow all the issues of our lives. Our heart is the starting point for everything that happens in our lives. Sowing the words of the King into and over our hearts not only affects our present mindset and thinking, but also begins to shape our actions and abilities. His words spoken from our mouths influence future events and outcomes as they change the makeup of our hearts from which the issues of life flow.

Sowing the Word of the Kingdom initiates a process of growth in your spirit and in your heart, and as long as you keep sowing the Word, God is not finished with you yet! The word you’ve sown simply sprouts and grows. I love how the scripture says, “sleep by night and rise by day.” It means that every day, something is happening in your spirit man whether you sense it or not. The Word is working, growing, strengthening, producing, sprouting, and multiplying. God set it up this way.

For those who have faced hardships, loss, disconnection, and the pain of suffering in various areas of their lives, the word of the Kingdom is at work right now. Day by day, and night by night, what you have sown is growing. Do not stop sowing the Word in your heart!

We often cannot see the effects of our faith until the time of harvest. We cannot see the potential and the groundwork for life change that is taking place as we remain faithful to sow the Word, pray, seek God, worship, and release the Kingdom of God by faith.

This word has been resonating in my spirit for days now—stay faithful.

There are many distractions that seek to pull you away from simple faithfulness. Remnant, hear me in this. It isn’t that the devil will pull you from Jesus, but that by drawing back from your faithfulness to seek the Lord, seeds stop being planted. This work of harvest is a cooperative effort. It is you and the Holy Spirit partnering together to see the multiplication of harvest begin to change the direction of your life for the good.

Faithfulness touches God’s heart, I believe. When a man or woman lives with a heart of faith to do what pleases God, getting alone with Him when no one else sees and speaking over their lives when no one else hears, God always sees it. He is drawn to those who will sow in faithfulness.

I would say that there are many who have sown their seed, letting go of precious, valuable seeds when it seemed like nothing was happening. Your heart was sorrowful, and you did not see the end result of what you were doing. The promise seemed so distant that it felt like nothing. But God saw you. God heard you. God was moving when you didn’t see Him or feel Him.

The Holy Spirit was cooperating with your obedience and faithfulness when it was hard to remain faithful. Now the reward is close!

Listen to what the book of Psalms says about this time in our lives.

Psalm 126:5-6 NKJV—Those who sow in tears Shall reap in joy. [6] He who continually goes forth weeping, Bearing seed for sowing, Shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, Bringing his sheaves with him.

Let’s read it in the Passion Translation as well.

Psalm 126:5-6 TPT—Those who sow their tears as seeds will reap a harvest with joyful shouts of glee. [6] They may weep as they go out carrying their seed to sow, but they will return with joyful laughter and shouting with gladness as they bring back armloads of blessing and a harvest overflowing!

Did you hear what it said? “Armloads of blessing and a harvest overflowing!” This is what we should expect. Don’t let your focus be swayed. The harvest is coming. The harvest is ripening. The harvest for many is here!

The Book of Mark teaches that the earth yields crops by itself. What the scripture means is that once you sow the life-giving word into your heart, an unstoppable process begins. The soil of our hearts and lives begins to sprout with life. First, the blade—almost invisible at first—the harvest begins like a tender baby, easily broken. We must continue to water it with faith and sprinkle it with more life-giving seed. Then, the head begins to form, and you can see that something is happening. With joy, you begin to sense that God is fulfilling His promise. Harvest no longer seems like a dream. You start to awaken to a new reality that something is changing in the spirit. After that, the full grain appears in the head of the wheat. It is ready.

I believe many in the Remnant are at this point now.

We can see that something has shifted, and awakening is occurring. Seeds are still growing, changing moment by moment. Day by day, the Lord is enlarging and multiplying the effects of what you have sown in the dark of night. Through your prayers, faith, and declarations of the kingdom word, growth is happening, and you have reason to take up joy!

Let me draw your attention to Mark’s last verse in this passage.

Mark 4:29 TPT—“Then, when the grain is ripe, he immediately puts the sickle to the grain, because harvest time has come.”

Notice the word “immediately.” Jesus won’t wait when harvest time comes. This is why we MUST STAY READY. It can be easy to experience great joy as you see the seeds growing and notice the life change occurring. However, do not focus solely on the present, because even the joy of what is taking place is no match for the power of the harvest that will come. The harvest will be huge—multiplied by the tears you’ve sown and the words you’ve spoken. Your faith, which has been tested, will be found ready to carry armloads of blessing, favor, and reward. What is the greatest reward of our faith? It is to see and carry what we have believed for.

Friend, Jesus is about to put in the sickle.

What I have felt from the Lord is that something is happening now in the unseen realm. This word is meant to encourage you to press on and press in. Friend, keep moving forward in your faithfulness and work.

The Holy Spirit has been speaking to my heart that “blocks are being moved into place—ready for construction. He says, “you will see that I do a quick work!”

Again I say, when harvest comes, it moves fast, so be ready.

The Holy Spirit is communicating that, “the heavens are moving and shifting on your behalf. Do not think that I am done. NO! I have not even started yet!”

Listen to the closing part of this prophetic word from the Lord. It is meant for our encouragement.

Together we can help people be raised up, built up, and encouraged to pursue God’s presence more than ever before.

Let me begin with Scripture.

Mark 1:2-3 NKJV—As it is written in the Prophets: “Behold, I send My messenger before Your face, Who will prepare Your way before You.” [3] “The voice of one crying in the wilderness: ‘Prepare the way of the LORD; Make His paths straight.’”

We know this speaks of John the Baptist, whom Jesus referred to. John the Baptist was a prophet prophesied by Isaiah, destined to come before Jesus walked the earth. When John baptized people in the river, he cried out for repentance and for fruits of righteousness. He proclaimed many truths that paved the way for Jesus to come on the scene and preach the Kingdom of God.

Friend, I believe that in these last days, God is raising up those same kinds of people again—ones in the spirit and essence of John the Baptist, who will prepare the way of the Lord.

Let me just say this: every person has a place of influence. Every person has an opportunity to be part of the remnant. Everyone can help prepare the way of the Lord. You just need to be open, fearless, and bold to do your part.

There are some of you right now who have had a desire in your heart to create a video. You have had words coming to your heart that you think, “I’ve never experienced this before.” But here you find this word in your heart and mind, and you believe it’s from the Holy Spirit. What should you do? Many of you desire to create a reel on Instagram, Facebook, or TikTok, and the people around you may decry those things, saying, “God could never use that.”

But I tell you, around the earth right now, God is raising up bold voices who refuse to be held back by what everyone else is saying.

They are posting those videos and sharing those words from the Lord, and they are reaching people. The reason that’s in your heart right now, friend, is that God, the Holy Spirit, put it there. He put it there so you would reach a person that nobody else could reach. He has a plan for your life. He has a plan for your voice.

I want to speak to those who feel insignificant or think they don’t have a vast audience. As I’ve said before, I don’t have a huge audience, but I will be faithful to speak to the one that God puts in front of the screen or allows me to speak into their ears through their earbuds, AirPods, or headphones. I will be faithful to speak into that person’s spirit through the word of the Lord. God is trying to get a word of encouragement, release, revival, power, and victory to them.

The same is true for you. You have a word from God. If you have any desire at all, you have a word from God.

Let me also say that for some, that desire will be a calling. It will be something they are supposed to do on an ongoing basis.

I feel like that’s part of my calling. Not only am I a pastor, but I am someone online called to spread the gospel, share the good news of Jesus, and help raise up and encourage the remnant. I’m going to be faithful to do that, waiting on the voice of the Lord for clarity and direction.

For some, that will be a calling. For others, you will have moments of divine inspiration. In those moments, you will feel something rise up inside you, and you will have a word that you feel needs to be spoken.

Friend, the word in that moment is from the Lord, and He is using you as a voice for His Kingdom.

You need to be bold, courageous, and fearless enough to release the word and speak it. Or maybe it’s a video. Maybe you’ll only do it a few times. Whatever it is, be obedient to God. Be obedient to God because the Lord desires to use you.

Now let me get to the word that the Lord spoke into my heart just this morning as I was coming out of a time of prayer. As a sidenote , I step out in faith every time I do this, just as I’m calling you to do something like this. I’m stepping out in faith because the Lord has been speaking to my heart over the course of several years, encouraging me and preparing me to give the words He would speak. This is something that is still very new to me. But I’m stepping out with boldness, and I’m going to encourage you to do the very same thing.

Here’s the word:

Friend, I am telling you that word burns in my heart, and I am so excited to see a bold and fearless remnant of people begin to rise up. I can’t wait to see it. There are already so many people on social media and online, making videos, creating reels, posting words and writing books.

In fact, I just talked to someone in my church the other day who said, “God is calling me to write again,” and He had just dropped a prophetic word into their heart in a way that He hadn’t in a while. I was so excited to hear that, and I’m thrilled to see those voices begin to step into their callings.

This is no competition. Every single person who rises up and becomes the voice God has called you to be has a sphere of influence that no one else may reach. Those people will listen to YOU; they will hear the word God has placed in YOU. YOU have an anointing for that group of people.

Friend, this is your hour. This is your day. Don’t be held back by religion. Don’t be held back by what people think. Don’t be held back by their voices. Boldly become who God has called you to be.

I was just reading the other day in Scripture, Jesus had gone out and was teaching, and His family thought He was crazy. Even His mother thought something was going on with Jesus. This was the same Mary who was visited by an angel, who said, “Your son is the Son of God. Your son will be the king of the highest.” She held those prophetic words in her heart. Yet when it came time for Jesus to step into His calling and anointing in a fuller capacity, even Mary thought something was wrong with Him.

The scripture says they thought He had gone crazy. Mary did change her mind and understand who Jesus really was, as the Holy Spirit had told her years earlier, but Jesus, in that moment, was told, “Your mother and brothers are standing outside, calling for you.”

The Bible says Jesus looked around at the crowd in the house and said, “Who are My mother and brothers?” He pointed to those around Him and said, “Those who do the will of My Father, these are My brothers and sisters and mother.” In that moment, Jesus had to choose the identity of the Son of God, the King of the world. He had to walk in that identity with boldness and courage. He did it as God in the flesh, laying aside His divinity and picking up our humanity. He walked that same road, depending on the voice of the Holy Spirit within Him, believing the word of God over Him, and stepping into it.

If Jesus did that, friend, that’s exactly what you and I will have to do.

So I want to encourage you: don’t worry about what you hear from people. Don’t worry about their discouraging voices. Don’t worry about the naysayers. Don’t worry about those who talk about your words or decry your videos. Don’t worry about those who may speak ill of you.

You do what the Holy Spirit has prompted you to do, and you be obedient to the voice of Jesus.

Jesus will open those doors for you and create a path for you. You’ll stand before the people God has intended for you to stand before, and He’ll put a word in your mouth. Whenever you feel that word in your mouth, friend, open your mouth and let the Holy Spirit come out. Let the Holy Spirit energize you and anoint you with a word that you have no wisdom to give on your own. God will use you to bring down strongholds. That is the remnant Jesus is raising at this very moment, and you’re part of it.

If you are one of those whom God is speaking to, if He’s giving you a prophetic word, if He’s calling you to make a video, write an article, start a blog, or go live on Facebook, Instagram, or TikTok—do it. Do it. Press in and do it. Don’t give in to the fear of man or the pressure from any source. You may be one of those the Lord is speaking about, preparing the way of the Lord, and God will multiply the message of the Kingdom by millions, reaching a harvest of souls for the Kingdom of God, and you’re part of that.

Let me pray for you:

“Lord, Heavenly Father, Holy Spirit, I pray for my friend right now. I pray You release upon them a new anointing, a new grace, a new fervor, a new desire they’ve never had. Open up their heart with expectancy for things they could never do on their own, but through You they can, because we can do all things through Christ who strengthens us. Holy Spirit, pour out with fire and unction in their heart, and give them a spirit of obedience to rise up into the new calling of God You’re placing upon them now. In Jesus’ name, Amen.”

Be blessed.
