What God does through a man or woman who says an unequivocal yes will mark your family for generations. In this message, I teach The Obedience Effect — how hearing God’s voice and moving when He speaks builds an ark of protection over you and your household. We walk through Noah’s story: warned about things not yet seen, mocked while he built, faithful while he waited, and saved with his family when judgment came. Obedience requires action, faithfulness, patience, and trust, and it positions you for your next assignment, your next role, and your next season. If you have laid something down out of discouragement, God is saying pick it back up. Obedience to His voice will work. It will unlock doors that have been shut and bring blessing and multiplication into your life. Friend, drop in the comments: That’s me. Pray for me. We want to pray for you.

If you've been feeling the pull to pray and you keep putting it off — this word is for you.I have a word of the Lord for you today that He dropped in my heart and in my spirit. God is raising up watchmen in this hour, men and women who will stand their guard, stand in the gap, and refuse to hold their peace day or night.In this word I walk through Ezekiel 33:6, Isaiah 62:6, and Ezekiel 3:17, and I share the word God spoke deeply into my heart just a few days ago — that this moment in the earth is for the watchmen to rise. I talk about what it means to be positioned as a watchman on the wall, how your prayers shift destinies, boundaries, and nations, and why God still needs men and women who will get up in the middle of the night and pray.Friend, if you've laid down pieces of your walk with God out of discouragement, I want you to hear this: pick it back up. God is a God of grace and mercy, and even if it was sin that derailed you, all you've got to do is begin to repent. There is a reward to obedience that comes in no other way.If this blessed you, let me know in the comments — just drop "That's me. Pray for me." and we will pray for you, remnant. 🔥Scriptures in this video:📖 Ezekiel 33:6📖 Isaiah 62:6📖 Ezekiel 3:17 SUBSCRIBE TO PODCAST ON SUBSTACK #Watchmen #PrayerWarrior #SpiritualWarfare #Prayer #Remnant #Ezekiel33 #Isaiah62 #Faith #HolySpirit #Jesus This is a public episode.

God Is Calling You to Have a Pure Voice An Isaiah 6 moment: a call to purity, consecration, and bold obedience. Do you sense God drawing you closer—calling you to deeper prayer, greater surrender, and a life fully dedicated to Him? Before you step through the next door, there is work God wants to do within your heart. Your voice matters, and its purity begins with what you allow to influence you. In Isaiah 6, an encounter with the holiness of God exposed Isaiah’s unclean lips. Then a coal from the altar touched his mouth. As you listen to this episode, consider where you need that same surrender: in your words, your motives, your influences, and your response to God’s calling. ➡️ SUBSCRIBE ON APPLE PODCASTS ➡️ SUBSCRIBE ON SPOTIFY In this episode, you’ll explore: * Why a pure voice begins with a purified heart. * How pride, fear, and worldly influences can contaminate your words. * What it means to let the Holy Spirit shape what you say. * Why consecration involves both separation and dedication to God. * How to respond when fear of failure or other people’s opinions keeps you silent. * How your prayers and obedience can serve your family, church, and community. You don’t have to feel qualified to obey God. You do need a heart willing to surrender. Whether you’re called to encourage your children, speak truth to someone who needs hope, or stand as an intercessor for your community, your next step begins with drawing near to Jesus.

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 t… This is a public episode. If you would like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit www.strongfaith.co

Thank you to everyone who tuned into my live video! Join me for my next live video in the app. Subscribe to the podcast⤵️ This is a repentance season for the bride of Christ. We need to purify our hearts and make ourselves ready for the return of Jesus and the outpouring of the Spirit of God in the earth. This word was given as a word to the church in America. We need to come back to a place of trust, full trust in Jesus. Here’s the full written Word of the Lord: It is time for my church in America to once again seek me and pour out her heart for me. It is time for the church to bow in true repentance and seek the Lord while He may be found. For I long to pour my grace upon my people and open to them the good treasure of my hand. How I long to gather my people into my presence and send upon them the longing of my heart and the goodness of my word. I will open to my church the good treasure of my hand as they return to me says the Lord. As they open their hearts to repent of their ways, I will heal them and I will help them. For I love my bride. I cleanse and nourish my bride and prepare for the day of our wedding. I ready the hearts of the remnant even now to behold my face and cry out for my presence. These are the ones I died for, yes for the earth, but for my bride who has chosen me. Only keep yourselves pure. Keep yourselves separated unto me. Keep yourselves holy. The cost was my blood, but the cost for you is to desire my presence, to ruminate in my word, and allow the Spirit to lead you into my presence and to follow me fully. With my heart, I am calling the church to follow me fully in this hour. The time is short and the day is at hand. Do not allow the things of the world to penetrate into your hearts. Purity is to keep oneself unspotted from the world. It is a day to return to the Lord! It is a moment to repent and be clean. It is a moment to choose what is right above the desires of your own hearts. For I am coming says the Lord! As a groom, I am coming for those who make themselves ready and clean. Those who make ready will see me. Those who prepare their hearts will hear the cry of my voice. This is a public episode.

This is a season where the Lord is bringing people back to a place of intimacy with him and to a place of choosing Him above all…will you choose to become obedient? Be sure to SHARE this word on your social media or with a friend, because this is a pivotal moment for the church! Here is the full written Word of the Lord titled: Burn the Plows. My church, says the Lord, is in a “burn the plows” moment. I am walking by to throw my mantle upon them so that they see miracle after miracle—double miracles, but they have to make a choice: Stand idly by and look at the mantle, beholding it, adorning themselves with it, OR using my choosing of themselves to effect the purpose for which they came into the kingdom. Will they hold onto the old or embrace the new? Will they ride the fence and seek passive faith in the hopes that what worked in the past will work again? OR, will they burn the plows? Will my people I have chosen, choose ME? Will they, with wholehearted abandon, be ready to make a move in the direction my Spirit is about to take the church? BURN THE PLOWS! Do not set your heart on what you can produce through your effort. You were never called to be a plowman, but a REAPER! In the moment of reaping we don’t need anyone weeping because of the plows. The plows in your life have brought you to an intersection of choice. Stay safe with what you’ve always known OR burn the plow! END OF WORD.

The Lord Is Preparing the Ground for Harvest 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. Subscribe to the Podcast⤵️ Follow me on Instagram: 👉 https://www.instgram.com/larryshankle Join the Email List: 👉 https://sendfox.com/lp/m2n96d 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.

Overview 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.

Welcome back! Thanks for reading StrongFaith.co! Subscribe for free to receive new posts and support my work. 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 … This is a public episode.

Are You Speaking What God Is Saying? 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. Thanks for reading StrongFaith.co! Subscribe for free to receive new posts and support my work. 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. 🔥 If this message stirred your heart, share it with someone who needs truth in this hour. 🎧 Subscribe to the podcast for more messages like this. 📲 Let’s get the Word of God out to as many people as possible. #StrongFaith #RemnantRising #HolySpirit #TruthMatters #KingdomVoice This is a public episode.
