Babylon was one of the greatest cities of the ancient world. But what was life really like for the people who lived there? Behind its magnificent temples and royal palaces lay a city of crowded streets, disease, danger and everyday struggles.Tristan Hughes is joined by friend of the show and Babylonian extraordinaire Professor Lloyd Llewellyn-Jones to uncover the realities of life in Hammurabi's Babylon. Drawing on the remarkable texts left behind by its people, they explore everything from marriage and childbirth to taverns, rubbish-filled streets and the strange demons believed to haunt the home. What did it mean to walk the streets of Mesopotamia's most famous ancient city?MOREThe Fall of BabylonListen on AppleListen on SpotifyThe Tower of BabelListen on Apple Listen on Spotify Presented by Tristan Hughes.

This chapter is a message of hope to the returning exiles.(18:26) Jacob quotes Isaiah 50-51 to his people in 2 Nephi 6-10. His words are connected to themes of the Fall Festival.(28:22) Israel is told to awake and put on her strength in Isaiah 51. She is to remember the rock from which she is hewn. These are symbols of coming back into God's presence.(36:34) Isaiah 52 continues the Great Exchange, as Babylon and Zion switch places. “How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that publishes peace.” The king's feet are established and Israel will sing and see eye to eye.(44:54) The JST of Isaiah 52.15 changes the word “sprinkle” to “gather.” Kings will shut their mouths at the presence of Christ, the Great King.(48:33) Isaiah 53 is the heart of this week's message and a powerful witness of Jesus Christ. “Who hath believed our report? To whom is the arm of the Lord revealed?” The core of Abinadi's message is Isaiah 53.(52:16) Jesus knows our pain and sorrows. “We did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.”(57:58) “Who shall declare his generation?” (Isa. 53.8). The saints of God are to declare the physical descent of Jesus Christ, that he is the Son of God.(1:01:48) “When thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed” (Isa. 53.10). The Savior saw us during his agony in Gethsemane. He also saw his seed in the Spirit World.(1:09:58) God speaks of his great love for Israel in Isa. 54.8. His love is shown as a mother's love for her newborn child.(1:11:49) The “waters of Noah” (Isa. 54.9) can be read as a promise that when we become a Zion people, Zion will return from heaven.(1:16:33) All have been invited to the feast. God goes after the outcasts of Israel to bring them home. “Every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters” (Isa. 55.1). → For more of Bryce Dunford’s podcast classes, click here. → Enroll in Institute → YouTube → Apple Podcasts → Spotify → Amazon Music → Facebook The post Ep 392 | Isaiah 50-57, Come Follow Me 2026 (Oct 5-11) appeared first on Talking Scripture.
King Zedekiah sends messengers to Jeremiah asking that he might inquire of the Lord on behalf of Judah. Though he asks for the Lord's favor, he instead receives a prophecy of the Lord's wrath, for the king of Judah and his entourage will all be handed over to King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon. After pronouncing judgment against Zedekiah, he goes on to condemn Shallum, Jehoiakim, and Coniah. These leaders have led the Lord's flock away from Him, but God promises to raise up one who is called “a Righteous Branch for David,” a king and a shepherd who will reign wisely and administer justice righteously.Jeremiah 21 - 1:15 .

Friday Bible Study (9/25/26) // Nehemiah 7:5-73 (ESV) // Lists of Returned Exiles // 5 Then my God put it into my heart to assemble the nobles and the officials and the people to be enrolled by genealogy.

Did Daniel actually kill a dragon? And why isn't this story in most modern Bibles?In Episode 54 of the Ancient Roots of Life Podcast, JT and Josh dive into Bel and the Dragon, the fascinating addition to Daniel preserved in the Septuagint tradition. Daniel exposes the priests of Bel, destroys their idol, kills a creature the Babylonians worship as a god, and then finds himself thrown into a lions' den — again.From there, we tackle one of the biggest debates in Christianity: What actually changed under the New Covenant? We examine Jeremiah's prophecy, Acts 15, Paul's writings, the Ten Commandments, Sabbath observance, Torah, and what it means for God's law to be written on the heart.Finally, we finish our journey through the Gospel of Nicodemus / Acts of Pilate, including its extraordinary traditions surrounding Christ, Hades, the resurrection, and Pilate's reported testimony concerning Jesus.This one goes all over the ancient world — Babylon, Daniel, dragons, Torah, the New Covenant, Hades, Pilate and the resurrection.What do you think: Is Bel and the Dragon preserving a genuine ancient tradition about Daniel? And what should we study next?The New Covenant discussion begins from Jeremiah's prophecy that God would establish a covenant “not according to” the covenant made at the Exodus and would put his laws into the people's minds and hearts. ancient-roots-of-life-54 The conversation then moves into Acts 15 and the dispute over whether Gentile believers had to be circumcised and keep the Law of Moses.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/jt-s-mix-tape--6579902/support.Please support our sponsor Modern Roots Life: https://modernrootslife.com/?bg_ref=rVWsBoOfcFPatreon: https://patreon.com/JT_Follows_JC?utm_medium=unknown&utm_source=join_link&utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator&utm_content=copyLinkJESUS SAID THERE WOULD BE HATERS: https://jtfollowsjc.com/product-category/mens-shirts/JT's Hats: https://jtfollowsjc.com/product-category/hats/Coaching Program: https://www.echoesoftruthnetwork.com/joinTelegram Group: https://t.me/jtsmixtapeNew Trucker Hat: https://www.shopmmca.com/shop/p/jt-follows-jc-hat

This week, Abigail Dundore shares a message from Isaiah 44–45 titled "Free to Receive." Speaking into Israel's exile in Babylon, Abigail shows why idolatry is more than loving the wrong thing. It means loving something that cannot love us back.Abigail starts with Isaiah's almost comic picture of the blacksmith and the carpenter. They work hard to shape their idols and end the day hungry, thirsty and cold, still taking care of themselves. She connects this to the idols of our city: career success, financial security and intellectual achievement. Each one demands everything and gives nothing back. In contrast, God pours water on dry ground, plants the willows and carries His people from birth to old age. Abigail tells the story of giving up her plans for law school and discovering the justice work God had already given her. She also opens up about the shame she carried for years after a long season of chronic illness in her childhood, and about hearing the Lord say He never needed her to perform. Finally, she shows how blindness keeps us from seeing what enslaves us, and how God sweeps it away like mist.The sermon rests on a simple distinction: idols are pursued, but gifts are received. The same good thing can be an idol that enslaves us or a gift that delights us, but it can't be both. Shame enters when we overreach, trying to prove ourselves wise and self-reliant. From the beginning, all God wanted was for us to walk with Him as His sons and daughters. His Spirit does not disappoint, and shame cannot stand in the face of His love.Ultimately, this sermon is an invitation to put down the burdens we've learned to call normal and let God carry us. Some of that freedom comes in a moment, and some of it takes years of formation. Either way, God is working toward our joy. As we say yes to His redemption, He widens our capacity to receive His gifts with open hands and to break out in song.
This message walks through Revelation 14–18, explaining the 144,000, the three angels' proclamations, the fall of Babylon, the harvest imagery, and the seven bowls of God's wrath. This contrasts the faithful redeemed with those who follow the beast and emphasizes the call to repentance and the vindication of the saints.

Just when we thought we had Taylor Swift's next move figured out, she reminded us that we know absolutely nothing.The Life of a Showgirl: The Encore is officially here with four new songs, and naturally, we have questions. A lot of them.We're talking Patient Zero, Cleveland!, Pink Clouding and Babylon, the completely different Encore aesthetic, that mysterious third page, all the zeros, the Patient Zero music video clues and whether Taylor's masters announcement has secretly been giving us a roadmap this entire time.Then we get into the reaction to the new songs, why Cleveland! has Swifties so divided, and why maybe we all need to stop deciding how we feel about a Taylor Swift song after one listen.Plus, we revisit some suspicious old clues, somehow end up back at Karma, uncover an incredible Colin Farrell and Elizabeth Taylor connection… and one of us has been keeping a VERY big secret.Yeah.

Come Out of Babylon and Return to God's Ways | KIB 551 DESCRIPTION COME OUT OF BABYLON AND RETURN TO GOD'S WAYS What happens when believers stop fighting the Word of God and simply begin asking: "Father, what are Your ways?" In this special Feast of Tabernacles edition of Kingdom Intelligence Briefing, Dr. Michael Lake and Mary Lou Lake speak from the heart about their journey of learning to leave Babylon's patterns behind and increasingly align their lives with the Kingdom of God. The Feast of Tabernacles provides the backdrop for an important question: Are we allowing Scripture to define our Christianity—or are we interpreting Scripture through traditions and cultural assumptions we inherited from Babylon? Dr. Lake examines the biblical feasts as God's appointed times—divine rehearsals that point toward the work of Messiah. The spring feasts reveal what Christ accomplished in His first coming, while the fall feasts prophetically anticipate events associated with His return, His Kingdom, and ultimately the new heaven and new earth. Pasted text The discussion also confronts the historical process through which portions of Christianity became increasingly separated from their Hebraic foundations and absorbed practices from surrounding cultures. But this episode is NOT a call to religious legalism. It is a call to return to the Word. Dr. Lake explains the biblical concept of Torah as the loving instruction of the Father. Rather than viewing God's commandments through the harshness associated with Roman law, believers should understand God's instructions as revealing the pathway He established for His people. That produces one of the central principles of KIB 551: We cannot expect Kingdom results while deliberately walking according to the ways of another kingdom. Repentance realigns us with God. Obedience closes doors to the enemy. The Word renews our minds. And the Holy Spirit progressively teaches believers how to walk according to the Kingdom into which Christ has brought them. Pasted text Dr. Lake puts the principle powerfully: "You cannot outgive your disobedience." Kingdom life cannot be reduced to formulas, offerings, religious rituals, or outward appearances. God desires obedience flowing from faith and love. As believers leave Babylon, repent, and align themselves with Scripture, they progressively close doors through which the enemy has operated and learn how to walk in the blessings and freedom of God's Kingdom. Pasted text Mary Lou also shares a deeply personal message for believers who are exhausted, grieving, sick, or walking through overwhelming circumstances: LET GOD CARRY YOU. There are seasons when believers reach the end of their own strength. Surrender can be difficult—especially for someone who has experienced betrayal, trauma, disappointment, or loss. Yet surrendering ourselves into God's hands can become the beginning of restoration. Sometimes faith means standing. Sometimes faith means fighting. And sometimes faith means allowing the Father to carry us through something we cannot carry ourselves through. Pasted text KIB 551 also addresses sanctification. Maturity does not mean that temptation somehow ceases to exist. Rather, as believers grow closer to God, they increasingly recognize that sin simply costs too much. Why trade the presence of God for momentary pleasure? Why descend again into a valley from which God has already brought us? Why reopen doors Christ has helped us close? There are pleasures in the presence of God that Babylon cannot reproduce. Pasted text The episode concludes with perhaps its clearest statement of purpose: We do not obey God to make Him accept us. We obey Him because He has already accepted us in Christ. Because He loved us and gave Himself for us, our response is gratitude, surrender, obedience, and love. This Feast of Tabernacles, may the peace of God fill your home. May healing come to bodies and emotions. And may the Holy Spirit continue leading the remnant out of Babylon and deeper into the ways of the Kingdom. Pasted text Key Scriptures and Biblical Themes Leviticus 23:41 — The Feast of Tabernacles as an enduring appointed time. Zechariah 14:16–19 — The Feast of Tabernacles during Messiah's reign. Joshua 1:8 — Meditating upon and obeying God's Word. John 15:5 — Christ as the Vine and believers as the branches. Deuteronomy 28:1–68 — Blessings and curses associated with covenant faithfulness and disobedience. Hebrews 12:18–29 — Sinai, Zion, obedience, judgment, and "our God is a consuming fire." Romans 6:16–18 — Slavery to sin contrasted with obedience and righteousness. Proverbs 18:21 — Life and death in the power of the tongue. The transcript particularly emphasizes Leviticus 23:41 and the Hebrew concept of olam while discussing the enduring significance of the Feast of Tabernacles.

The Kingdom asks a different question: What has God said? The goal is not religious legalism. The goal is not earning salvation. The goal is learning to walk with the God who has already redeemed us through Jesus Christ. Examine the traditions you inherited. Examine your priorities. Examine what you allow into your home.

God said the same thing to exiles in Babylon that He's saying now: I know the plans I have for you. Pastor Mattie puts Jeremiah 29:11 back in its original context — spoken to people staring down 70 years of captivity, not a season of ease — and makes the case that God's promise of a future and a hope was never a promise of comfort. It was a promise that He sees the end of the story, even when all you can see is the pain right in front of you.Support the show

Wade wraps up his review of The Richest Man in Babylon, covering chapters eight through the end. He pulls out lessons on taking responsibility for your circumstances, choosing a simple framework over more information or another product, and doing the work now so you're prepared when opportunity shows up. He closes with a reminder that you'll end up exactly where you're headed unless you change course. Key Takeaways Your circumstances don't decide who you become. Awareness, education, and action start with taking responsibility for your own choices. A product won't solve a mindset problem. A framework gives your decisions guardrails, and framework beats information every time. Clarity creates conviction, not complexity. A few simple tools you understand beat a table full of tools you don't. Opportunity looks like luck when you've done the work before the work. It takes time, money, and discipline. Align your direction with your destination. Small course corrections made early are easier than one big correction made late.

[00:05:00 - 00:06:00] Wade asks whether you'll keep behaving like a slave to your circumstances or start acting like a free man, and why debt can be a form of servitude. [00:06:00 - 00:08:00] Wade explains why a product can't fix a mindset problem, and why following the crowd into something you don't fully understand carries risk. [00:08:00 - 00:10:00] Wade shows how to find the pattern behind your circumstances, from tracking where your money flows to knowing your daily burn rate and freedom number. [00:11:00 - 00:13:00] Wade uses the water bladder and the mountain guardrail to show why every financial plan needs a framework. [00:13:00 - 00:16:00] Wade explains why framework beats information and how The Path of Money brings clarity to your decisions. [00:16:00 - 00:18:00] Wade contrasts complexity with clarity, using a carpenter's tools to explain why simple, properly structured whole life gives you a protected base. [00:18:00 - 00:21:00] Wade unpacks chapter ten, The Luckiest Man in Babylon, and why luck is really opportunity meeting preparation. [00:24:00 - 00:26:00] Wade uses a flight from Fargo to Dallas to show why course corrections matter when your direction and destination don't line up. [00:26:00 - 00:28:00] Wade closes with building before you need it and staying flexible enough that a change in the market or the economy doesn't break your plan.
Kyle takes Josh through the eleventh episode of Babylon 5 Season 2 "All Alone in the Night"If you want to hear Kyle's original episode on this episode of Babylon 5, you can find it here
You toiled all night and caught nothing. You came home to Ziklag and found it in ashes. You've been renamed by Babylon and left sitting at the well at midday. But Jubilee has come. The same Jesus who sent Peter back to the empty water is sending you back to the place where you failed. This time you go at His word. What broke you won't hold you, what captured you won't keep you, and the One you kept missing has come looking for you. The place where you failed may be the place where God fills your net. 1. CAST YOUR NETS AT THE PREVIOUS PLACE OF FAILURE (Luke 5:4–8) Peter had worked all night and caught nothing. Jesus sent him back into the same water, in daylight and into the deep, which went against everything a fisherman knew. One act of obedience brought a catch so big it filled two boats. 2. THE CURRENT LANDSCAPE (Daniel 1:1–2, 7) Babylon took the vessels, the city and even the names of Daniel and his friends. Captivity is not your final address. YOU ARE GOING TO JERUSALEM. 3. YOUR ZIKLAG (1 Samuel 30:1–2, 21; 1 Samuel 31:5–6) David came home to ashes and to captured families. Soon after, Saul fell. The season that burned you is also the one that clears the road. SAUL DIED, AND DAVID IS GOING TO JERUSALEM. 4. HE NEEDED TO GO THROUGH SAMARIA (Genesis 33:19–20; John 4:3–6) Jacob's well stood at Shechem, on the ground of his reconciliation with Esau. Jesus, tired from the journey, sat down beside it. The woman who came to the well left made well. Did He really need to go through Samaria, or was He looking for you?

Taylor Swift has released the deluxe version of The Life of a Showgirl, called The Encore, and we're here to decode it for you. Four new tracks: Patient Zero, Pink Clouding, Cleveland!, and Babylon have entered the canon and we have thoughts about all of it: from the male-centered allegations, to the bizarre tone of…anger…and the desire to clap back at the haters, both real and imagined. We are always keeping it real.
In Pride Takes the Credit, Pastor Joel Sims teaches from Daniel 4 that pride takes the credit and humility gives thanks. Nebuchadnezzar built Babylon and credited himself until God removed the grace that had been holding him together.
1 Peter 4:1212Beloved, do not be surprised at the fiery trial when it comes upon you to test you, as though something strange were happening to you.Daniel 3:1-251King Nebuchadnezzar made an image of gold, whose height was sixty cubits and its breadth six cubits. He set it up on the plain of Dura, in the province of Babylon. 2Then King Nebuchadnezzar sent to gather the satraps, the prefects, and the governors, the counselors, the treasurers, the justices, the magistrates, and all the officials of the provinces to come to the dedication of the image that King Nebuchadnezzar had set up. 3Then the satraps, the prefects, and the governors, the counselors, the treasurers, the justices, the magistrates, and all the officials of the provinces gathered for the dedication of the image that King Nebuchadnezzar had set up. And they stood before the image that Nebuchadnezzar had set up. 4And the herald proclaimed aloud, “You are commanded, O peoples, nations, and languages, 5that when you hear the sound of the horn, pipe, lyre, trigon, harp, bagpipe, and every kind of music, you are to fall down and worship the golden image that King Nebuchadnezzar has set up. 6And whoever does not fall down and worship shall immediately be cast into a burning fiery furnace.” 7Therefore, as soon as all the peoples heard the sound of the horn, pipe, lyre, trigon, harp, bagpipe, and every kind of music, all the peoples, nations, and languages fell down and worshiped the golden image that King Nebuchadnezzar had set up.8Therefore at that time certain Chaldeans came forward and maliciously accused the Jews. 9They declared to King Nebuchadnezzar, “O king, live forever! 10You, O king, have made a decree, that every man who hears the sound of the horn, pipe, lyre, trigon, harp, bagpipe, and every kind of music, shall fall down and worship the golden image. 11And whoever does not fall down and worship shall be cast into a burning fiery furnace. 12There are certain Jews whom you have appointed over the affairs of the province of Babylon: Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. These men, O king, pay no attention to you; they do not serve your gods or worship the golden image that you have set up.”13Then Nebuchadnezzar in furious rage commanded that Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego be brought. So they brought these men before the king. 14Nebuchadnezzar answered and said to them, “Is it true, O Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, that you do not serve my gods or worship the golden image that I have set up? 15Now if you are ready when you hear the sound of the horn, pipe, lyre, trigon, harp, bagpipe, and every kind of music, to fall down and worship the image that I have made, well and good. But if you do not worship, you shall immediately be cast into a burning fiery furnace. And who is the god who will deliver you out of my hands?”16Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego answered and said to the king, “O Nebuchadnezzar, we have no need to answer you in this matter. 17If this be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver us out of your hand, O king. 18But if not, be it known to you, O king, that we will not serve your gods or worship the golden image that you have set up.”19Then Nebuchadnezzar was filled with fury, and the expression of his face was changed against Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. He ordered the furnace heated seven times more than it was usually heated. 20And he ordered some of the mighty men of his army to bind Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, and to cast them into the burning fiery furnace. 21Then these men were bound in their cloaks, their tunics, their hats, and their other garments, and they were thrown into the burning fiery furnace. 22Because the king's order was urgent and the furnace overheated, the flame of the fire killed those men who took up Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. 23And these three men, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, fell bound into the burning fiery furnace.24Then King Nebuchadnezzar was astonished and rose up in haste. He declared to his counselors, “Did we not cast three men bound into the fire?” They answered and said to the king, “True, O king.” 25He answered and said, “But I see four men unbound, walking in the midst of the fire, and they are not hurt; and the appearance of the fourth is like a son of the gods.”

Taylor Swift dropped four surprise songs on Friday and the internet hasn't stopped spiralling since. We're decoding the shared-ex theory that has everyone pointing at Joe Jonas, the unexpected apology to Tom Hiddleston nine years later, and the one lyric she refuses to actually say out loud.But not everyone is singing along. With reviews turning brutal and a wild new conspiracy about who really wrote her best albums, we're asking whether anything Taylor releases can ever live up to the legend now.Plus, Sabrina Carpenter has landed one of the most coveted roles in Old Hollywood, and we need to talk about whether the pop star can actually pull it off.Become a Mamamia subscriber and get an all-access pass to everything we make, including exclusive podcasts and early listening, subscriber-only articles, monthly giveaways and our home workout app, MOVE.

Returning guest Brandon Kroll joins me to explore Revelation's description of Babylon the Great, the call to “come out of her,” and what that might mean for Christians now. Drawing on biblical passages, ancient history, religious imagery, and modern symbols, Brandon shares his theory that America may reflect aspects of Babylon. We discuss the Statue of Liberty, Mithras and the liberty cap, Nimrod and Tammuz, money and empire, Christian nationalism, and Brandon's questions about technology and end times prophecy. These are Brandon's interpretations and theories, offered for you to examine and consider; his views are not necessarily my own. This episode includes slides and visual comparisons.

Though God provided a way home for His captive people, many decided to remain in Babylon. Through Zechariah, God urged the people who remained in the land of captivity to return (cf. Zechariah 2:6-9). We must not grow comfortable in captivity!
Rev 14. Looking at the contrast between the system of the Antichrist and the reign of the Lamb that will be coming, we see the eternal gospel being preached, the fallen of Babylon, and the judgement that awaits all those who take the mark of the beast. As believers, we are called to endure as we await his return, sharing the gospel with urgency as our hearts weep for the lost around us.

What if the key to standing strong when life gets difficult isn't making the right decision in the moment—but making the decision before the moment ever comes?In this powerful message, Pastor Eric uses one of the most vivid illustrations imaginable—a game of Jenga—to show us how integrity works in real life.Just like a Jenga tower rarely collapses all at once, our lives rarely fall apart because of one massive decision. More often, it happens one plank at a time. One compromise. One shortcut. One small decision that seems insignificant in the moment.Eventually, what we've been building can no longer stand.The story of Daniel in Babylon gives us a powerful picture of what it means to live with conviction. Before Daniel ever sat down at the king's table, he had already made up his mind about who he was and what he would stand for.He pre-decided.That simple idea is at the heart of this message.Conviction isn't something we should try to discover in the heat of the moment. Conviction is something we establish before the moment ever arrives.Because when we wait until we're lonely, tempted, exhausted, pressured, or surrounded by compromise to decide what we believe, we've already made the decision much harder than it needed to be.This message challenges us to honestly examine our lives and ask:• Am I living by convictions or simply by preferences?• Have I already decided what I will and will not compromise?• Who am I when nobody is watching?• What decisions am I making today that will shape who I become tomorrow?• Have I pre-decided what I will do when temptation comes?• Am I building my life on something strong enough to stand?Daniel didn't wait until the pressure came to figure out what he believed.He had already made up his mind.That's the power of pre-deciding.The strongest convictions are established before the pressure arrives. And the small decisions we make today are building the person we will become tomorrow.Don't wait for the moment to decide who you are.Decide now.

There are moments in life when we simply don't know what to do. Something happens that we don't understand and suddenly we find ourselves looking for answers. We want to know what is happening and what we should do next. In our passage today, King Nebuchadnezzar is facing one of those moments. A troubling dream has completely interrupted his life and left him searching for answers. As we continue our study through Daniel, we will see what happens when the most powerful man in Babylon is confronted with something he doesn't understand and his usual circle of people are unable to provide any help.

Shining to the Final Word | Thriving in Babylon What happens when you pray and the answer doesn't come right away? Daniel 10 tells us that Daniel prayed for 21 days before receiving an answer. But the delay didn't mean God hadn't heard him. Behind what Daniel could see was a spiritual battle he knew nothing about. Shining to the Final Word As Daniel 10–12 unfolds, we get a glimpse of that unseen battle, a reminder that Daniel is greatly loved by God, and a look toward resurrection and eternity. Daniel doesn't understand everything God shows him. His response gives us a model for our own lives. We don't have to figure out every detail before we trust God. We can pray, remember who we are in Christ, invest our lives in what lasts, and keep moving faithfully toward the finish. Shining to the Final Word closes our journey through Daniel with a reminder that the same God who carried Daniel through Babylon can be trusted with our lives too. Key Insights: Keep praying when the answer seems delayed. Remember that not every battle is merely about what you can see. Let your identity rest somewhere circumstances cannot reach. Invest more of your life in what will outlast your life. Faithfulness doesn't require having everything figured out.

Wealth Transfer and Stewardship (1) (audio) David Eells – 9/27/26 Because of the transfer of wealth that's coming soon, I want to share what the Lord says about our stewardship. The Bible speaks of building the house of the Lord, which is the people in whom the Lord lives, not a building. This includes meeting their physical and spiritual needs. As stewards of the Lord's money and things, we are all responsible for doing this. {Luke 14:33} So therefore whosoever he be of you that renounceth not all that he hath, he cannot be my disciple. Jesus rebuked the Pharisees for tithing mint and anise and cummin, and left undone the weightier matters of the law. He said tithing was of the law. Notice we are stewards of 100% of what belongs to the Lord, not owners who tithe 10% and own 90% as under the law. In the New Testament, this would make us thieves. 100% belongs to the Lord, and He gets to tell us individually what He wants done with it. And He has done a very good job in the Scriptures {1 John 3:17} But whoso hath the world's goods, and beholdeth his brother in need, and shutteth up his compassion from him, how doth the love of God abide in him?Love is who the Bride is. The bride is about to be chosen, and it will be people who love God's people, who are generous and loving, and want to meet the needs of God's people. Some demonstrate this love, and some don't. I'm not talking about giving to me; the Lord supplies my needs, and I am content, which enables me to give to the needs of others. I have never taken a collection for myself. I do not receive money from UBM and so do not gain from fee-will offerings sent in, except that I get to see the Gospel go forth. The early disciples never took collections for themselves nor preached gimme sermons because they had faith with contentment. {2 Chronicles 24:4} And it came to pass after this, that Joash was minded to restore the house of Jehovah. We really need to restore the original house of the Lord. You can't do that unless you return to the original word of the Lord. {5} And he gathered together the priests and the Levites, and said to them, Go out unto the cities of Judah, and gather of all Israel money to repair the house of your God from year to year; and see that ye hasten the matter.Howbeit the Levites hastened it not. (The priests were not doing their job to rebuild the Kingdom. There's a lot of stuff out there that's not the kingdom of God. It's just men's ego, men's kingdoms. They build it the way they want because they use their own words, not the words of the Bible. And so that needs to be departed from, and especially those that have a form of godliness, but they deny the power thereof. From such, turn away, we're told.) {6} And the king called for Jehoiada the chief, and said unto him, Why hast thou not required of the Levites to bring in out of Judah and out of Jerusalem the tax of Moses the servant of Jehovah, and of the assembly of Israel, for the tent of the testimony (or house of God)? And it is to benefit the house of God, not a building, not a particular ministry that doesn't really see to the needs of God's people, but to their own needs. {2 Cor.8:1} Moreover, brethren, we make known to you the grace of God which hath been given in the churches of Macedonia; {2} how that in much proof of affliction the abundance of their joy and their deep poverty abounded unto the riches of their liberality. In other words, they were very gracious and giving people, even though they lived in poverty. Forced poverty is a curse, but a free-will offering of one's life to deny oneself is not a curse. So that's a blessing. I mean, Jesus lived in what most people would call poverty, and so did His disciples, and they did it as a sacrifice unto God. {3} For according to their power, I bear witness, yea and beyond their power, they gave of their own accord, So, they had to have the power of God.) {4} beseeching us with much entreaty in regard of this grace and the fellowship in the ministering to the saints: {5} and this, not as we had hoped, but first they gave their own selves to the Lord, and to us through the will of God. (If we don't give ourselves to the Lord, we won't be able to do what the Lord wants. It's the Lord in us that does it, and as was said, “to us through the will of God.”) {6} Insomuch that we exhorted Titus, that as he made a beginning before, so he would also complete in you this grace also. {7} But as ye abound in everything, in faith, and utterance, and knowledge, and in all earnestness, and in your love to us, see that ye abound in this grace also. (Amen. The command still goes out.) {8} I speak not by way of commandment, but as proving through the earnestness of others the sincerity also of your love. In other words, prove your love. Love has actions. Love is sacrificial. Love is patient, and on and on.) {9} For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might become rich. {10} And herein I give my judgment: for this is expedient for you, (In other words, follow in his steps. Sacrifice your life. Meet the needs of the brethren) who were the first to make a beginning a year ago, not only to do, but also to will. (Some people say it's okay as long as you're willing. No, no. Faith, if it has not works, is dead, right?) {11} But now complete the doing also; that as there was the readiness to will, so there may be the completion also out of your ability. {12} For if the readiness is there, it is acceptable according as a man hath, not according as he hath not. (In other words, you can't give more than you got. And, it's out of your ability, right? But it's even beyond your power, as he said.) {13} For I say not this that others may be eased and ye distressed; {14} but by equality: your abundance being a supply at this present time for their want, that their abundance also may become a supply for your want; that there may be equality: {15} as it is written, He that gathered much had nothing over; and he that gathered little had no lack. (God wants equality in the body, meaning everyone has their needs met.) The poor need to give as much as the rich need to give because it is multiplied back, as Jesus said. Jesus said the widow who gave 2 mites gave more than all the rich Pharisees because she gave out of her need. {Mar.12:41} And he sat down over against the treasury, and beheld how the multitude cast money into the treasury (Which was in the temple of God's people, not a building and ministry that does not meet the spiritual and physical needs of God's people): and many that were rich cast in much. (And that's not bad, it's good.) {42} And there came a poor widow, and she cast in two mites, which make a farthing. {43} And he called unto him his disciples, and said unto them, Verily I say unto you, This poor widow cast in more than all they that are casting into the treasury: {44} for they all did cast in of their superfluity; (meaning their overabundance) but she of her want did cast in all that she had, even all her living. I can tell you that she went away getting her needs met. I can guarantee you that, because that's the word of God. She cast in all that she had, even all of her living. Notice that it is not how much you give but how much you have left that counts. There's an awesome group of promises here that we should pay attention to. It's not like you're going to go into poverty if you give and give and give. You'll just receive and continue to receive. It's clear. This is what God says. In fact, some people stay poor all their lives because they don't give. They don't consider that they have enough to give. Well, you can't possibly do that and get away with it. So stay in poverty. You'll always be in need to other people; you'll always stay in poverty. {2 Cor.9:6} But this I say, He that soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he that soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully. {7} Let each man do according as he hath purposed in his heart: (This is also different for each person because every person has a different amount of income, right? In other words, you're not under law here. This is proof of your love, right? You're not under law, but it's to your benefit that you do this.) not grudgingly, or of necessity: (So you're not under the law anymore. You're especially not under the law to tithe, because now you have to renounce it all.) for God loveth a cheerful giver. (Be happy about what you're able to give to people and their needs.) {8} And God is able to make all grace abound unto you; (Oh would you look at that! Is that a powerful promise or what?) that ye, having always all sufficiency in everything, may abound unto every good work: (there's another powerful promise. And I tell you, we all need that.) {9} as it is written, He hath scattered abroad, he hath given to the poor; His righteousness abideth for ever. (Notice God gives righteousness to the person who meets the needs of God's people.) {10} And he that supplieth seed to the sower (Notice it's not seed to the keeper, like the prosperity movement, where they need three, four, five airplanes and big fancy buildings.) and bread for food, shall supply and multiply your seed for sowing, (So He gives you more to sow, so that you can reap more, so that you can be just a channel through whom God blesses people.) and increase the fruits of your righteousness: (He again promises righteousness for this.) {11} ye being enriched in everything unto all liberality, (This is not the kind of liberality we get in government; this is a liberality we have in giving, in meeting needs), which worketh through us, thanksgiving to God. (Yes, everybody thanks God for their needs being met, the miracles they receive through this. It's a blessing. And they keep on bragging on what God did for them. That's awesome.) {12} For the ministration of this service not only filleth up the measure of the wants of the saints, but aboundeth also through many thanksgivings unto God; {13} seeing that through the proving of you by this ministration they glorify God for the obedience of your confession unto the gospel of Christ, and for the liberality of your contribution unto them and unto all; (Notice it's unto them. It's unto people. It's not fancy buildings and all these things that people want to do to pump up their ego. The Lord wants us to be practical not exorbitant.) {Luke 16:1} And he said also unto the disciples, There was a certain rich man, who had a steward; and the same was accused unto him that he was wasting his goods. (Well, now that's rampant out there. Its like the guy with the talent who hid it in the earth.) {2} And he called him, and said unto him, What is this that I hear of thee? render the account of thy stewardship; for thou canst be no longer steward. {3} And the steward said within himself, What shall I do, seeing that my lord taketh away the stewardship from me? I have not strength to dig; to beg I am ashamed. {4} I am resolved what to do, that, when I am put out of the stewardship, they may receive me into their houses. (Here, he's using an evil man's parable for us, but we also will be giving up our stewardship one day.) {5} And calling to him each one of his lord's debtors, he said to the first, How much owest thou unto my lord? {6} And he said, A hundred measures of oil. And he said unto him, Take thy bond, and sit down quickly and write fifty. {7} Then said he to another, And how much owest thou? And he said, A hundred measures of wheat. He saith unto him, Take thy bond, and write fourscore. {8} And his lord commended the unrighteous steward because he had done wisely: for the sons of this world are for their own generation wiser than the sons of the light. (Meaning, of course, the righteous are not learning a lesson here. Listen to what the lesson actually is. It's not that you're to be bad and cheat the owner; no, here's the lesson. {9} And I say unto you, Make to yourselves friends by means of the mammon of unrighteousness; (Well, who's our friend? That's right, your brothers and sisters in the Lord, they're your friends. You can't really trust the world. But he says, use your money to make these kinds of friends.) that, when it shall fail, (and it will.) they may receive you into the eternal tabernacles. (In other words, use your money to bring in the lost, so that one day you can visit them in their eternal tabernacle.) {10} He that is faithful in a very little is faithful also in much: and he that is unrighteous in a very little is unrighteous also in much. (The Lord tested me with a major test one time, but it enabled me to be ready for a much bigger blessing. I had to give to a person who was totally unworthy, but understanding what the Scriptures had to say that if they take away from you, just give it to them. I finally just decided, ‘Well, this is what I have to do, so I did.' And then the Lord gave me a promise that was way bigger than the one I had. A tremendous thing. One day, I'll probably tell you about this. {11} If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches? (Yes, these are not true riches we're dealing with down here. This is not worth much of anything) {12} And if ye have not been faithful in that which is another's (It's not yours. Stewards are not owners but handle their Lord's money and things), who will give you that which is your own? (in heaven we are joint heirs of all things. We inherit it all! Praise God! And we're owners there, joint heirs with Christ.) {13} No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to one, and despise the other. (What he's saying is you despise the other, that's the Lord. If you hold to the one, you're despising the Lord. He has children He wants you to take care of. And if you do that, He'll give you more children because He multiplies your seed for sowing.) Ye cannot serve God and mammon. (If you're serving that mammon, you're going to be stingy with the Lord and stingy with His people, and He's going to be stingy with you. Because with whatever measure you mete it out, it'll be measured back to you.) {14} And the Pharisees, who were lovers of money, heard all these things; and they scoffed at him. (And they do it today, too.) {15} And he said unto them, Ye are they that justify yourselves in the sight of men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is exalted among men is an abomination in the sight of God. (And it's in Christianity too saints. I think I recounted before how there were two churches built in my area many years ago. One was built for two and a half million dollars, and the other was built for something like, I believe, twelve million dollars. The two-million-dollar one was actually more functional, very comfortable. Everything that was needed. It was a metal building on the outside. It didn't have all the glory and stuff like the other one, but it met the needs. Think what you could do with that much left over money to help God's people. That's why I say it's a sin to be extravagant just for ego.) {Ecc.5:10} He that loveth silver shall not be satisfied with silver; nor he that loveth abundance, with increase: this also is vanity. 11 When goods increase, they are increased that eat them; (Notice that. ‘When their goods increased,' guess what? Some people can't sit on it, while others do without. There's also an increase of the people who have the need.) and what advantage is there to the owner thereof, save the beholding of them with his eyes? (Oh, look what I got. Come, let me show you my treasures, my church building.) {12} The sleep of a laboring man is sweet, whether he eat little or much; but the fulness of the rich will not suffer him to sleep. {13} There is a grievous evil which I have seen under the sun, namely, riches kept by the owner thereof to his hurt: {14} and those riches perish by evil adventure; and if he hath begotten a son, there is nothing in his hand. {15} As he came forth from his mother's womb, naked shall he go again as he came, and shall take nothing for his labor, which he may carry away in his hand. (So there's no fruit born in greed and extravegence.) {Hag.1:8}, (2-11) Thus speaketh Jehovah of hosts, saying, This people say, It is not the time for us to come, the time for Jehovah's house to be built. {3} Then came the word of Jehovah by Haggai the prophet, saying, {4} Is it a time for you yourselves to dwell in your ceiled houses, while this house lieth waste? {5} Now therefore thus saith Jehovah of hosts: Consider your ways. {6} Ye have sown much, and bring in little; ye eat, but ye have not enough; ye drink, but ye are not filled with drink; ye clothe you, but there is none warm; and he that earneth wages earneth wages to put it into a bag with holes. (That's the curse on a person that hasn't learned how to share, how to meet the needs of others, how to give out of their own need so that their needs are met. Because when you give out of your own need to others, your needs are met.) {7} Thus saith Jehovah of hosts: Consider your ways. {8} Go up to the mountain, and bring wood, and build the house; and I will take pleasure in it,and I will be glorified, saith Jehovah. {9} Ye looked for much, and, lo, it came to little; and when ye brought it home, I did blow upon it. Why? saith Jehovah of hosts. Because of my house that lieth waste, while ye run every man to his own house. (And who is the house of the Lord, according to Paul? We are.) {10} Therefore for your sake the heavens withhold the dew, and the earth withholdeth its fruit. {11} And I called for a drought upon the land, and upon the mountains, and upon the grain, and upon the new wine, and upon the oil, and upon that which the ground bringeth forth, and upon men, and upon cattle, and upon all the labor of the hands. (What a curse! All because they're not meeting the needs of God's house. Amen? I tell you, folks, learn this lesson. This is a way to abundance. Give, and it will be given unto you good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over shall men give into your bosom. On the way to abundance. Get used to giving. Do it till you like it. Give. Because the Lord said in {Luke 6:35} But love your enemies, and do them good, and lend, never despairing; and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be sons of the Most High: (In other words, this is a way to sonship. Nobody who is stingy is a son of God. There's nobody who doesn't meet the needs of the people around them that's a son of God. You shall be sons. Remember, we've talked about the difference between children and sons. The world's waiting for the manifestation of the sons of God. That's what the world needs: sons.) for he is kind toward the unthankful and evil. (So don't be a judge or you will be judged. I mean, people need time to grow up. They need to live long enough to grow up. So make sure that you take care of them.) {36} Be ye merciful, even as your Father is merciful. (Having mercy is giving people what they don't deserve.) {37} And judge not, and ye shall not be judged: and condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: release, and ye shall be released: {38} give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, shall they give into your bosom. For with what measure ye mete it shall be measured to you again. (So if you give abundantly, you will receive back abundantly. You will receive it multiplied here, according to this text, multiplied back abundantly. Isn't that awesome? Oh, Praise You Father! Father, please teach Your children to give like You do. And we praise You for it.) {Matthew 6:19} Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon the earth, where moth and rust consume, and where thieves break through and steal: (Do you know about the money system in this world, how the thieves have broken through, and they're stealing? Yeah, so don't count on their system to see to your future. See to God's economy for your future. Lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, because you can do this. There is a bank that these guys can't get into. And you can make a withdrawal on it anytime you want to. But if you don't put it in there, you can't withdraw on it.) {20} but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth consume, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: (They can't get into your heavenly bank. Only you can get into that one. But you have to deposit it there.) {21} for where thy treasure is, there will thy heart be also. (So if you're hoarding up and you have all your faith in what you have down here on earth, your heart is on this and not on the Lord. Your trust is not in the Lord. In fact, I'll prove that to you here in this text.) {22} The lamp of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light. (So put your eye on the Word of God, on what you have according to the Word, and how God will meet your needs, and how He wants you to live towards others, and love towards others.) {23} But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is the darkness! {24} No man can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to one (that's the money, the mammon), and despise the other (that's God.) That's what the Lord is saying. If you hold to it, you hoard it; you are despising God. You are not being a disciple, because you haven't renounced your ownership yet. Do I say that because you have to give it all away? No, you have to give it all into the hands of God and let Him tell you what to do with it. It's that simple.) Ye cannot serve God and mammon. (This is the Common Aramaic word for riches and is derived from the Hebrew word for treasure. From mammonas, meaning ‘confidence, that which is trusted in.' So, it's not necessarily just money either, but it's what you have your confidence in. It could be gold, it could be silver, it could be properties. Whatever you're storing up your treasure in, and you have your confidence in, that's your mammon. So, we must repent. We must please God.) {Luke 12:28} But if God doth so clothe the grass in the field, which to-day is, and to-morrow is cast into the oven; how much more shall he clothe you, O ye of little faith? (People want to make sure that they're going to be provided for, and their trust is in their mammon, to take care of themselves. But they don't have faith. And didn't God choose the poor of the world to be rich in faith? Yeah, because they know they don't have to pack it with them everywhere they go. They know God will be there to supply their every need according to His riches and glory.) {29} And seek not ye what ye shall eat, and what ye shall drink, neither be ye of doubtful mind. {30} For all these things do the nations of the world seek after: but your Father knoweth that ye have need of these things. {31} Yet seek ye his kingdom, and these things shall be added unto you. {32} Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom. {33} Sell that which ye have, and give alms; make for yourselves purses which wax not old, (In other words, don't store up your money for long periods of time.) a treasure in the heavens that faileth not, where no thief draweth near, neither moth destroyeth. {34} For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also. (So it's a dangerous thing to count on the treasures of the world and men of the world and their schemes. And of course, the hierarchy out there in the economic world, they're just there to cheat you. And they've got an ultimate plan to do that. So if you're playing their game, you know, they're going to beat you at it. God wants us to get into His economy.) {Luke 12:16} And he spake a parable unto them, saying, The ground of a certain rich man brought forth plentifully: {17} and he reasoned within himself, saying, What shall I do, because I have not where to bestow my fruits? (meaning, on himself) {18} And he said, This will I do: I will pull down my barns, and build greater; and there will I bestow all my grain and my goods. {19} And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years; take thine ease, eat, drink, be merry. (I remember back when things were leading up to Y2K, how people stored up whole rooms full of food and stuff like that. And when they heard me preaching and teaching on these things, and how God's not going to favor that, and that it'll be stolen, and how people will look for people that do that to steal it from them, and maybe kill them in the process. You know, a lot of them went to look at their stores, and they found that, yeah, the thieves had broken through and were stealing. There were all kinds of little critters feeding on their food, and they had to throw it away.) {20} But God said unto him, Thou foolish one, this night is thy soul required of thee; (it actually says, “this night they require thy soul of thee.” Why is that? These things that he had stored up were his god.) and the things which thou hast prepared, whose shall they be? (Yeah, who's going to get that while you're gone? Who's going to eat all that which cost you your life, and you're gone, and you're not in the kingdom?) {21} So is he that layeth up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God. (So he's saying, if you're laying up treasure for yourself, you're not rich towards God. Wouldn't you rather be rich towards God? Wouldn't you have to have your needs met wherever you go?) {Luke 18:22} And when Jesus heard it, he said unto him, One thing thou lackest yet: sell all that thou hast, and distribute unto the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, follow me. (Grain was stored up under Joseph for the coming 7 years of famine/tribulation. Joseph was the greatest type of Jesus, Who was sold by his brethren into bondage and preached to the spirits in prison, and came out to rule the world. So, we can store up under Jesus in heaven by meeting the needs of others. And when we have a need, our need will be met. That's what He says, and it can't be stolen.) {23} But when he heard these things, he became exceeding sorrowful; for he was very rich. {24} And Jesus seeing him said, How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God! {25} For it is easier for a camel to enter in through a needle's eye, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God. (We know about the needle's eye. The Pharisees made it a doorway, but no, that wasn't what He was saying at all. He said it's very hard, impossible, actually, for a camel to go through a needle's eye.) {26} And they that heard it said, Then who can be saved? {27} But he said, The things which are impossible with men are possible with God. (How does God save men? He changes them. Anybody who's not willing to change cannot be saved. You have to be willing to change.) {Luke 16:19} Now there was a certain rich man, and he was clothed in purple and fine linen, faring sumptuously every day: {20} and a certain beggar named Lazarus was laid at his gate, full of sores, {21} and desiring to be fed with the crumbs that fell from the rich man's table; yea, even the dogs came and licked his sores. {22} And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and that he was carried away by the angels into Abraham's bosom: (which was the good side of Sheol, which was the place of the dead. When Jesus was resurrected, He took Abraham's bosom to heaven.) and the rich man also died, and was buried. {23} And in Hades he lifted up his eyes, being in torments, (Hades is the bad side of Sheol.) and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom. {24} And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am in anguish in this flame. {25} But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, (In other words, you can either hold to wealth here or you can have there forever. You know, sometimes we're called to give up something that we can't keep in order to get something that we can't lose.) and Lazarus in like manner evil things: but now here he is comforted, and thou art in anguish. (I know people just pass right over this, and they don't really fear God. They just pass right over this like it's nothing. Look at what He's saying. Look at the life Jesus and His disciples gave us as an example of. Look at that life. And they were happy. There's no happiness in riches and things. Look at the people who have won lotteries. Look how long it takes for them to be destroyed and how they're never happy. And now they're even worse off. It's just an opportunity to live after the lusts of the flesh and lose your life. Look how happy the disciples were. They gave as they went, everywhere. And because they gave, it was given unto them. They became a channel for God's goodness to people. That's what God wants for us. He wants us to be blessed in this way.) {26} And besides all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed, that they that would pass from hence to you may not be able, and that none may cross over from thence to us. {27} And he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father's house; {28} for I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment. {29} But Abraham saith, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them. (In other words, they have the word of God, let them hear the word of God. Notice, he is speaking to us. Look how important this text is. He is speaking to us. They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them. Gods not sending them somebody from the dead that they're going to listen to, because He did send somebody from the dead, and they wouldn't listen.) {30} And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one go to them from the dead, they will repent. {31} And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, if one rise from the dead. (And he did. What we have to do is hear the word of God. We have to hear what it says, not because somebody else is doing it or not doing it. We have to hear what He says in the Word of God. We're going to be held responsible for what we hear in the Word of God. And those that do will bear much fruit, and He will give them that which is their own. But if you're not faithful in that which is another's, who will give you that which is your own? What you have is not yours. Nothing that you have, that you consider yours, is yours. It's God's. We are now stewards. It never calls us owners in the New Testament. These people are liars. When they put you under the tithe to bring money to them, they have to put you under the law to bring money to them, because God would not work it in your heart to give to them. And they know that. So they put you under the law, which is under a curse, because it's a totally different relationship with God. Come out from under the law, which is come out from under the curse. He wants a cheerful giver, not of necessity. They preach necessity all the time. You must tithe, or else they say, If you don't do this, you're going to be cursed. But actually, if you do that, you are cursed. Unless you've just done it in your ignorance, and then, as soon as you found out what the Bible really said, you began to follow the Bible, like a lot of people do. They're not staying in one spot. They're not stagnant. They're running after God, like I was. When I first went to a church that taught tithing, I said to myself, Well, if God likes ten percent, I'm going to give Him twenty. So, I did. By the way, along with that, I sold almost everything I had. All my toys and things. I just sold them all. I didn't have time to do anything but read the Bible anyway. So, I just sold them all and gave that to God. So, it was far above twenty percent. But then the Lord taught me that, No, you're still a Pharisee, because you're under a law that you made for yourself. So, as soon as I gained understanding about that, I went right into listening to the Holy Spirit, because you've been given the Holy Spirit to show you what God wants you to do with what belongs to Him. You see? So I began to listen to the Holy Spirit, and come out from under any laws I made for myself, as well as any laws that man would put upon me, bringing me under a covenant that does not exist anymore, in order to break my covenant that does exist. Amen? The Transfer of Wealth Prophetic Vision: Wealth Transfer – Time is Short! End times Lindsay and Richard Roberts (son of Oral Roberts, healing evangelist, founder of ORU) from Living Truth 9/21/26 Link Partial Transcript: Lindsay said, I had been asleep off and on at night. Sometime in the middle of the night, I became fully awake and I saw a vision. God shows me things in billboard signs. Billboards, to me, are information and God was showing me things in billboards, and they're always very illuminated, very bright, very electric, and very what I would call succinct, distinct messages. I saw myself getting into a car and driving along a road, and I saw the first billboard. And all of a sudden the first billboard illuminated brightly; just as bright as it could be. It had a black outline with a gold frame and when it illuminated, it was like someone switched the light on. Like it was dark and then, BAM! The light came on; it said, END TIME. Now, that's not a big revelation. The first billboard said END TIME. Not like time's going to end, but “End Time,” but there was more to it. I kept on driving. The second one said TRANSFER. So I saw where this is going: End Time Transfer…. And then the next one, the third one said, OF WEALTH. Now the END TIME sign was just the most illuminated gold; like a gold color, but it was like an illuminated light that was shining gold. The next one said, TRANSFER; and it was also illuminated gold. And the next one said, OF WEALTH, and it was also illuminated gold. I kept driving and the next one said, WICKED, and it did NOT illuminate. So, it was like, WEALTH OF THE (was illuminated) and then “WICKED” – I could see it on the billboard, but it was not illuminated, not super bright, and it went dark. (God has been gathering up the wealth of the wicked and putting it in His account to transfer it in the days to come to the needs of His people. This is a parallel in history to when His people were coming out of Egypt to go into their wilderness, which Rev. chapters 12 and 17 reveal to be the Tribulation. The Egyptians' gold and silver was TRANSFERED to His people.) All the first billboards were illuminated brightly, almost like enticing, and I wanted to see the next one, but on the one that said, WICKED, the light went out, as if the “lights went out on the wicked.” And I thought, okay, that's just kind of weird. And it didn't make sense to me. And I kept on driving. And there it went again; another billboard said, END TIMEand was totally illuminated. TRANSFERENCE was so electric and illuminated. And then it said, OF WEALTH. And when I saw the word WEALTH and drove past it, it began to illuminate. And out of the W of the word WEALTH transfers came…., Okay, so I'm immediately thinking “money.” But no, it wasn't. Although money was part of it, I could see like, money was being ready to transfer out of the W. I saw it come down from the W. There were ideas; the word technology came out of it, the wordtelevision came out of it, the word radio came out of it, the word paintings came out of it, the word affluence came out of it, the word influence came out of it. So when the word WEALTH lit up out of the W, it was as though God was releasing not just what the world would call “wealth”, but what He was calling wealth. We think of wealth in terms of money, but I think God was saying to me in this vision; He was showing me that there are lots of things that are “wealth” that create financial wealth. And some of those are “ideas”. Some of those are “art”. Some of them are the “industry”. Some of them are “sales”; they're businesses, ways of doing things, new ways. And here's the weird thing. It was creative things that I knew, but then all of a sudden it had, like a twist, like it was technology. Well, when I saw the word technology come out of the W, it was like new technology. And then I saw the word radio. Well, I've seen the radio; we have a radio. But it was like new control over the airwaves, television; new control over what's on television or creating new television stations. And I kept seeing all of this come pouring out of the word WEALTH but it wasn't going anywhere yet. I thought, okay, that's interesting. What came to me was the scripture, “wealth of the wicked laid up for the righteous” -END TIME TRANSFERENCE OF WEALTH. I got in the car and kept right on driving. So, here it is, Wealth. And all of this was just pouring out of the W. Then I saw the words OF THE totally illuminated; and WICKED and it was not illuminated. You could see it; the outline, but WICKED was not illuminated. They, the Wicked, weren't the bright light they used to be. And then as I'm still driving, instead of anything else, the next sign was dark and dark and dark. (Does this mean darkness will cover the earth?) And I'm like, "Wow, I have been passing along, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting for the next sign." Think about that. We're waiting for the next sign from the Lord. Every billboard I passed was dark. And then all of a sudden, the last billboard popped up out of nowhere and the word on it was illuminated gold. Only it wasn't TRANSFER or TRANSFERENCE. It was TRANSFERRED. It was done. (The Lord showed me this too. It will be done.) WEALTH OF THE WICKED. I waited and waited; we're waiting for it, and all of a sudden the next billboard was brightly illuminated, and it didn't say TRANSFER like the other ones. It said TRANSFERRED. I began to look at it and I saw two groups of people underneath [the billboard]. They were all Christians. Now, here's the second part where it was WEALTH OF THE WICKED TRANSFERRED…. and I'm about to rejoice! And then the Lord said, "Look down. There's two groups of people." So, where the W was, it was all pouring out, but it wasn't going anywhere. Out of the TRANSFERRED, there are two groups of people; they were all Christians underneath that sign. One group was like, "I'm waiting. Yay! Hey, I'm a Christian, so slap it on me." Nothing was hitting them. Not that they deserved it because, "Hey, I'm a Christian." Because they were all Christians. It was just really weird. But the second group: they were on their knees, not necessarily looking for anything; they were just worshiping God. They had waited, and they had waited and waited. But they stayed in worship. They stayed in this atmosphere of worship. They weren't looking... They were worshiping. And when the one group who were just worshiping God, not looking up to what was happening on the billboards, they were in this atmosphere of worship. And all of a sudden, when the word TRANSFERRED illuminated it was not just financial, it was ideas. And all of a sudden the words television, radio, authority and all of this- especially like ownership, businesses- were just pouring out and it was TRANSFERRED. The ones who were in the state of worship continued. And then the other ones saw [them], and thought, ‘wait a minute, we need to be worshiping.' (Then Richard said, “It's never too late to worship.”) And all of a sudden, it became almost like an outpouring of worship. And where there was an outpouring of worship, then there was an outpouring of God's provision. Now, what may be provision to me and come pouring out may be different for somebody else. But I want you to focus on whatever it is that represents what God wants to provide for you and how you are believing God for provision. And instead of focusing on everything else, I personally just want to focus on worship. And I just want to encourage you to begin to worship God because He honors that; He said He inhabits, lives, and dwells in the praises of His people. And you know, in this past year, sometimes, “Praise the Lord!” should have come out of my mouth faster than other things. I'm a human being. But I do think it's not too late. And that was the whole thing. It's not too late. God knows what happened when the wicked seemed to prosper. And I believe that we have not only the privilege of worshiping God, but it's also one of our wonderful opportunities to combat the attacks of the devil. So my word to you today is what I saw: “The wealth of the wicked being transferred to the righteous,” and then I saw the word TRANSFERRED as if God is already on it. It's done! Praying Over The 1% and the Wealth Transfer Link Brandon Biggs 8/7/25 Partial transcript: God said, "Brandon, I just want you to know there'll be 1% that flows in this end time wealth transfer of the great wealth. (of the Church) And I'll not share My glory.” Just like I won't share My glory whenever you pray for somebody and they try to say, "Thank you, sir." And you say, “No, it ain't me. I'm just a vessel.” We got to always keep the main thing in mind and give God praise for everything in these last days. We have to always be looking at His face and knowing that He is the rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. It's not Brandon; it's not you. I may write the check. I may be the distributor of what wealth that He gives me, but it's always to give God the praise. And it [the transfer?] will be for the unlikely people….. (Who can handle the wealth for God and His people.) The end time wealth transfer of what's about to happen with the finances; it's something you can't earn and it's something you don't deserve. But God said, "I'm going to bless you." And I've seen what's about to happen again with a glimpse. As I was lying in bed, I could see, and I was looking into these months ahead of what God is trying to do just for His remnant…. So what Brandon was emphasizing in the video about the wealth transfer distributions coming is that God wants us to be faithful in the little things in obedience before He will give you more responsibility with the greater things. The Great End Times Transfer of Wealth Glynda Lomax, 12/13/25 wingsofprophecy.blogspot.com My children, you have heard there is a great transfer of wealth coming in these end times and it is true. Many have tried to understand how this wealth will come, as they put great hope in it. They believe the wealth is so they may own it, but that is not My way. My way is always giving and sharing with those in need. My way is always that it glorifies My Son Jesus, not mankind. Those who have little fear of the greater lack that is coming, yet I am already providing for them ahead of time and I need only speak to those who are truly Mine and they will give immediately. It is to those children that I will give the end times wealth. It is those who will give whatever amount, as much as I say. WHEN I say that I will endow, that My purposes may be fulfilled, that MY Son's great name may be glorified and not their own. These are those who have purified themselves for My pleasure. They live holy lives to please Me and that I may use them in greater ways. These of My children, who are very few, shall be greatly endowed yet will not flaunt it. They will not consume it upon their lusts. They will not use the power of it against others. These are those with hearts to give. They are simply channels of My glory. There will be no announcement or fanfare when they become wealthy. They will simply continue doing what they are already doing – being about their Father's business in the Earth, helping the poor and watching for My Son's return. Inquire of Me if you desire to qualify for this great transfer, for it happens soon. (Glynda gave these verses) Deuteronomy 6:10-12 And it shall be, when the LORD thy God shall have brought thee into the land which he sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give thee great and goodly cities, which thou buildedst not, 11 And houses full of all good [things], which thou filledst not, and wells digged, which thou diggedst not, vineyards and olive trees, which thou plantedst not; when thou shalt have eaten and be full; 12 [Then] beware lest thou forget the LORD, which brought thee forth out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage. Proverbs 13:22 A good [man] leaveth an inheritance to his children's children: and the wealth of the sinner [is] laid up for the just. (This is not just for personal use but for whatever the Lord wills and to get the gospel out.) Job 27:16-17 Though he heap up silver as the dust, and prepare raiment as the clay; 17 He may prepare [it], but the just shall put [it] on, and the innocent shall divide the silver. Ecclesiastes 2:26 For [God] giveth to a man that [is] good in his sight wisdom, and knowledge, and joy: but to the sinner he giveth travail, to gather and to heap up, that he may give to [him that is] good before God. This also [is] vanity and vexation of spirit. Proverbs 28:8 He that by usury and unjust gain increaseth his substance, he shall gather it for him that will pity the poor. James 2:15-16 If a brother or sister be naked, and destitute of daily food, 16 And one of you say unto them, Depart in peace, be [ye] warmed and filled; notwithstanding ye give them not those things which are needful to the body; what [doth it] profit? Matthew 25:35-40 For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in: 36 Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me. 37 Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed [thee]? or thirsty, and gave [thee] drink? 38 When saw we thee a stranger, and took [thee] in? or naked, and clothed [thee]? 39 Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee? 40 And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done [it] unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done [it] unto me. Luke 3:10-14 And the people asked him, saying, What shall we do then? 11 He answereth and saith unto them, He that hath two coats, let him impart to him that hath none; and he that hath meat, let him do likewise. 12 Then came also publicans to be baptized, and said unto him, Master, what shall we do? 13 And he said unto them, Exact no more than that which is appointed you. 14 And the soldiers likewise demanded of him, saying, And what shall we do? And he said unto them, Do violence to no man, neither accuse [any] falsely; and be content with your wages. Luke 16:10 He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much: and he that is unjust in the least is unjust also in much. Matthew 25:21 His lord said unto him, Well done, [thou] good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord. Vision About The Wealth Transfer Victoria Ang, 7/28/23 link The enemy does not want this Word to go out!!! I typed up the whole post; I went to send and everything got deleted!!! So I had to start all over again!!!! I wanted to share some encouragement the Lord gave me this morning. I was woken in the early morning hours as usual to pray, around 5 AM. I spent about an hour in prayer, praise and worship. Afterwards, I wanted to go back to sleep for a little bit before getting up for the day to tackle tending the animals. Immediately after prayers, I received a vision…. In the VISION, I saw I had a check in my hand. I was made to know I could cash it. There was a woman standing in front of a register. I handed her the check. As I gave it to her, she dropped it on the floor. She bent over to pick the check up to cash it for me. She looked at the check and opened her drawer and pulled out large stacks of bills in piles. Before giving it to me, she glanced once again to verify the amount. As she was verifying, she put the large piles of money back into the drawer. She walked over to a HUGE bank vault. She put the combination in and opened the vault. She walked into the vault as I waited to receive my money. Next she came back out pushing an enormously big cart. Full from top to bottom with stacks upon stacks upon stacks of money! She went to give me the money and the vision ended! Interpretation: his vision is about the wealth transfer that will soon occur. Money from the evildoers that has been hidden. And those who stashed money away for themselves are about to fall from their hands to the ground. Losing EVERYTHING! (God takes it for His use.) And transferred to God's righteous! Blessing them in abundance!!! The Lord God has made it known to those who will receive the funds! 1978 Prophecy Wealth Transfer Charles Capps Posted 2/5/26 link Transcript: Here's a prophecy Charles Capps gave February 1, 1978, in a meeting in Honolulu, Hawaii. Financial inversion shall increase in these days. Now, let's define financial inversion or inversion. A turning upside down or inside-out reversal of position. Have you got it? Turning upside down or inside out. Reversal of position. One party has it, oppressing others with it. But after the inversion, positions change. That's what an inversion is. Now listen to this. Financial inversion shall increase in these days. For you see, it is My desire to move in the realm of your financial prosperity. But release Me, saith the Lord, release Me that I may come in your behalf and move on your behalf. For yes, yes, yes, there shall be in this hour financial distress here and there. The economy shall go up and it will go down. (Now, this was prophesied in 1978.) The economy shall go up and it will go down. But those that learn to walk in the Word, they shall see the prosperity of the Word come forth in this hour in a way that has not been seen by men in days past. Yes, there's coming a financial inversion in the world's system. It's been held in reservoirs of wicked men for days on end, but the end is nigh. Those reservoirs shall be tapped and shall be drained into the gospel of Jesus Christ. It shall be done, saith the Lord. It shall be done in the time allotted. And so shall it be that the Word of the Lord shall come to pass that the wealth of the sinner is laid up for the just. Predominantly in two ways it will be done in this hour. Those that have hoarded up and stored because of the inspiration of the evil one and held the money from the gospel shall be converted and drawn into the Kingdom. Then shall it release that reservoir into the Kingdom. Now the Spirit of God said that wealth will come in two ways. Number one, many of those people will be born again and bring their wealth into the Kingdom. Can you shout amen? Amen. And then the other way He said, but many, many will not. They'll not heed the voice of the Word of God. They'll turn aside to this and they'll turn aside to that and they'll walk in their own ways, but their ways will not work in this hour. It'll dwindle and it'll slip away as though it were in bags with holes in them. It'll go here and it'll go there and they'll wonder why it's not working now. It worked in days past, they'll say. I mean, the world's at that point right now. They cannot figure out why what they've done all these years is not working anymore. But it shall be, saith the Lord, that the Word of the Lord shall rise within men; men of God, of low esteem in the financial world. They shall claim the Word of God to be their very own and walk in the light of it as it has been set forth in the Word and give. They'll begin to give small at first because that's all they have. But then it will increase. And through the hundredfold return, so shall it be that the reservoirs that have held the riches in days past, so shall it return to the hands of the giver. Because of the hundredfold return shall the reservoirs be lost from the wicked and turn to the gospel. For it shall be in this hour that you will see things that you never dreamed would come to pass. Oh, it'll be strong at first in ways, then it will grow greater and greater until men will be astounded, and the world will stand in awe, because the ways of men have failed, and the ways of God shall come forth. As men walk in My Word, so shall they walk in the ways of the Lord. Oh yes, there will be some who say, "Yes, but God's ways are higher, surely higher than our ways, and we can't walk in those." It's true that the ways of God are higher. They are higher than your ways as the heavens are above the earth. But I'll teach you to walk in My ways. I never did say you couldn't walk in My ways. Now learn to walk in it. Learn to give. So shall the inversion of the financial system revert. And so shall it be that the gospel of the Kingdom shall be preached to all the world. And there shall be no lack in the Kingdom. Those that give shall walk in the ways of the supernatural. They shall be known abroad. My Word shall spread and the knowledge of the Lord shall fill all the earth in the day and the hour in which you stand. Ye shall see it and know it, for it is of Me and it shall come to pass, saith the Lord. Can you shout, "Amen?" Now, that was prophesied in 1978. God said there would be an allotted time. And we're walking in it right now. The inversion has begun. Now the door is not fully open…. Before Cyrus/Trump came to deliver the people of God from Babylon DS, there was a plan by previous Socialist Communists to redistribute the wealth to themselves and those who are bent on destroying the people of God, like Haman and his people in Esther. But Mordecai, representing the pre-anointed Man-child, and Esther, representing the Bride, interceded to the King, which overthrew their evil plan, which is what we are now seeing. Ecc.1:9-10 That which hath been is that which shall be; and that which hath been done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun. 10 Is there a thing whereof it may be said, See, this is new? it hath been long ago, in the ages which were before us. Cyrus gave great wealth, taken from Babylon's treasury, into the hands of God's people to leave Babylon and rebuild the Kingdom, represented by the Temple, in the Promised Land. So Trump is doing now, by the hand of God, through the RV and GCR. Ezr.6:4 with three courses of great stones, and a course of new timber: and let the expenses be given out of the king's house. This was a great redistribution of wealth to God's people. 2Ch.36:22 Now in the first year of Cyrus king of Persia, that the word of Jehovah by the mouth of Jeremiah might be accomplished, Jehovah stirred up the spirit of Cyrus king of Persia, so that he made a proclamation throughout all his kingdom, and put it also in writing, saying, 23 Thus saith Cyrus king of Persia, All the kingdoms of the earth hath Jehovah, the God of heaven, given me; and he hath charged me to build him a house in Jerusalem, which is in Judah. Whosoever there is among you of all his people, Jehovah his God be with him, and let him go up. (These represent a first fruits of those to leave Babylonish religion to go to the true place and teaching of God. Building the Temple represents the building of the saints who are the temple of God. Jesus is the Temple of God and they are coming into His image.) The people also contributed great wealth towards this rebuilding. Ezr.1:4-11 And whosoever is left, in any place where he sojourneth, let the men of his place help him with silver, and with gold, and with goods, and with beasts, besides the freewill-offering for the house of God which is in Jerusalem. 5 Then rose up the heads of fathers' houses of Judah and Benjamin, and the priests, and the Levites, even all whose spirit God had stirred to go up to build the house of Jehovah which is in Jerusalem. 6 And all they that were round about them strengthened their hands with vessels of silver, with gold, with goods, and with beasts, and with precious things, besides all that was willingly offered. 7 Also Cyrus the king brought forth the vessels of the house of Jehovah, which Nebuchadnezzar had brought forth out of Jerusalem, and had put in the house of his gods; 8 even those did Cyrus king of Persia bring forth by the hand of Mithredath the treasurer, and numbered them unto Sheshbazzar, the prince of Judah. 9 And this is the number of them: thirty platters of gold, a thousand platters of silver, nine and twenty knives, 10 thirty bowls of gold, silver bowls of a second sort four hundred and ten, and other vessels a thousand. 11 All the vessels of gold and of silver were five thousand and four hundred. All these did Sheshbazzar bring up, when they of the captivity were brought up from Babylon unto Jerusalem. (These vessels of the house of God represent His people who were taken captive by Babylon but were released by Cyrus to be returned to the Promised Land to live on the promises.) Ezr.6:5 And also let the gold and silver vessels of the house of God, which Nebuchadnezzar took forth out of the temple, which is at Jerusalem, and brought unto Babylon, be restored, and brought again unto the temple which is at Jerusalem, every one to its place; and thou shalt put them in the house of God. ………………………………………… (Here is some news and predictions from the Alliance.

On Thurs. 1 Oct. 2026 the Global Elite Cabal's US Inc. Corp. Government would be dissolved, finally ending their fiat monetary system and closing their US Inc. government. On that same Thurs. 1 Oct. 2026 the privately owned (by Cabal bankers) Federal Reserve and IRS would shut down because US Inc. Corp.'s fiscal year ended. It was bound to happen. US Inc. has been bankrupt since 2008, with no Congressional budget approvals, or accountability – just running on fumes with a fiat dollar. The Cabal's Blackrock was also Bankrupt. This was the Deep State's financial arm that controlled more wealth than entire nations. With 209 nations' switching to the gold/asset-backed currency system on Thurs. 1 Oct, the Deep State no longer had access to Taxpayer monies. So sad. All banks worldwide not Basel III compliant (have gold backing to their monies) will be closed. The Basel III regulations could alter the real estate market in unprecedented ways. In the first week of October the Emergency Broadcast System was set to activate and broadcast documentaries 24/7 on the state of the World. With the QFS activation, governments as we know them were expected to shrink by 90-95%. The Global Military Alliance will take control worldwide until after elections, which have to be held within 60 days. Forget the November elections. They're not happening, not on this timeline. NESARA GESARA was well in force as countries worldwide were activating the gold/asset-backed Quantum Financial System and Global Currency Reset. The BRICS nations heads the greatest wealth transfer in history. 134 nations were ditching the fiat US dollar and moving to gold-backed currencies. Each of these currencies will trade at a 1:1 ratio. Also on Thurs. 1 Oct the new United States of America Republic will start its new fiscal year under a gold-backed US Note as part of the Global Currency Reset. “Peace Without Concession. Order Without Apologies. Truth Without Permission. You Are Watching The Return of A Republic. Not Announced, But Executed.” …Nesara Gesara Secrets on Telegram Fri. 25 Sept. 2026 “The Greatest Financial & Political Shift in Modern History is Underway. The Global Currency Reset Has Been Released. Mass Arrests Have Been Happening For Some Time. Be Ready. Blackout (of communication). The World is Connected & Watching. TRUST THE PLAN,” …Tier4b ISO20022 on Telegram Fri. 25 Sept. 2026 At the conclusion of the GCR the general population Worldwide would be invited into a Redemption Center to set up their personal wallets (formerly known as bank accounts) on the new Starlink Satellite System. Individuals would set up their wallet by way of their own body rhythms and DNA. The system was digital and completely secure. No one but that person could access their own account. The digital account would be accessed through their cell phone. ATMs would be available to obtain cash. A integral part of the revolution to make the World a Better Place through release of the GCR, was better health for all people of the World through release of Med Bed treatments. It is my understanding that Med Bed Treatment Centers have been built around the World and some were actively treating clients right now. Some large hospital chains have been bought out and Med Beds have been placed in them with doctors, nurses and medical staff fully trained in the process. People will be issued Med Bed cards to cover cost of their treatments in their own countries. The United Arab Emirates has hereby suspended Iranian flights, complying with Treasury Sec. Scott Bessent's devastating and ultimate sanctions. BESSENT LAST NIGHT: “External flights from Iran, probably more than 80%-90% got shut down. I'm not sure how the Iranian representatives at the UN are gonna get home!” Bessent's order made clear that any country aiding Iranian flights will FAFO be out of the American system. Countries must basically shun any Iranian airline aircraft if they even try landing there. …Trump Office on Telegram Fri. 25 Sept. 2026. CUBA'S ENTIRE POWER GRID JUST COLLAPSED. Total blackout. Officials have no idea when it comes back. Rubio's been saying it: the economic model is the problem. Communism. They leeched off Venezuelan oil. That tap is gone. Venezuela is aligned with the U.S. now. The lights went out. The regime is next. …Fox News Fri. 25 Sept. 2026 Possible Timeline of Global Currency Reset: …JFK on Telegram Thurs. 24 Sept. 2026: https://t.me/johndurhamchannel By Thurs. 17 Sept. 2026 the US Inc. was broke, sixty-three Cabal banks sat insolvent, seventy-five Cabal banks had been seized, the Chinese Elders wiped out the US National Debt, Visa and Mastercard rails were dead and Petrodollar contracts expired the next day on Fri. 18 Sept. 2026.

On Wed. 23 Sept. 2026 at 6 pm EST the Quantum Financial System (QFS) was absorbed by the new US Treasury. On Thurs. 24 Sept. 2026 at 2am EST 23 global currencies on the QFS Trading Platform were activated and began trading. On Thurs. 24 Sept 2026 at 4 pm EST total activation of the QFS System occurred. his weekend Fri 25 to Sun 27 2026 will be an amazing revelatory weekend. Groups out West will be notified that they have access to funds. On Fri. 25 Sept. 2026 Trump gave the go-ahead for a Global Currency Reset of 209 nations to gold-backed currencies.

Taylor Swift surprise-released four new songs this week on The Life of a Showgirl: The Encore, and the reaction is genuinely split — some critics calling the new material sharper than the original album, others calling a surprise deluxe a cash-in after she insisted the record was complete. Tonight she premieres the "Patient Zero" video, which she directed, at the MTV VMAs, where one win would make her the most-awarded artist in the show's history. Lyla breaks down all four tracks, the reviews, and a very good week in the football stands.

Rome seemed fundamentally opposed to Christianity in the first century. After all, the empire fed Christians to lions, taxed their communities, and crucified their followers, making Rome look like the natural enemy of everything the new faith stood for. Christians returned the hostility in the Book of Revelation, where Rome appears as Babylon, "the Mother of Harlots," a doomed empire whose destruction will clear the way for God's eternal kingdom. But what’s surprising is that many ancient Christians argued the exact opposite. Melito of Sardis told Marcus Aurelius that Christian belief "bloomed among your peoples in the time of Augustus," and Paulus Orosius argued that Augustus was literally an agent of God's will. Rome's political revolution was the necessary precursor to Christianity's sacred revolution: the empire cleared the space for Christ's kingdom on earth. Today's guest is Tim Whitmarsh, author of Rome's Age of Revolution: Augustus, Empire, and the Making of Christianity. We look at why Rome's iron grip on the earth's surface drove people to seek refuge on the vertical axis and how Christianity supplied the most compelling escape route, why the earliest Christians met in private homes because the emperor had monopolized all public space, and how the Book of Revelation managed to be simultaneously the most anti-Roman and the most Augustan text in the New Testament. Whitmarsh argues that Christianity was "paradoxically Augustan": born from the empire's revolution, shaped by its infrastructure, expressed in its propaganda language, and yet imagining itself as the empire's antithesis, a sacred revolution that outlasted the political one by two thousand years.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Thirty years after OutKast released ATLiens, Bomani Jones welcomes DJ Wally Sparks to revisit the groundbreaking album that changed the group—and Southern hip-hop—forever. Download the PrizePicks app today and use code BOMANI to get $150 instantly in Lineups if you win your first $5 Lineup! https://prizepicks.onelink.me/LME0/BOMANI Bomani and Wally reflect on hearing ATLiens for the first time, the massive impact of “Elevators (Me & You),” and OutKast’s dramatic evolution from Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik. They explain how the album introduced a darker, more introspective sound while establishing André 3000 as one of rap’s most innovative voices and proving why Big Boi remains one of hip-hop’s most underrated MCs. The conversation also explores OutKast producing much of the album themselves, Organized Noize’s influence, the memorable contributions from the Dungeon Family, and how songs like “Babylon,” “Mainstream,” “Decatur Psalm” and “E.T. (Extraterrestrial)” helped point toward the creative breakthrough that would become Aquemini. Plus, Bomani delivers his Babyface hot take, compares Big Boi to Emmitt Smith and explains why he might have ended ATLiens one track earlier. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The stage where they hand out the Oscars sits on a plaza built to echo the Court of Babylon. Todd Coconato has been inside that world since he was eight years old, a child actor on studio sets who grew into the LA club scene and all the money and access that came with it. He says there is a reason so many of the people he ran with died young or lost their minds. Hollywood sells itself as the definition of success, and Todd got close enough to see what actually fills that void, and what never can.Then came the night that changed everything. Stabbed nine times, once in the heart, he heard the audible voice of God on the way to the hospital and walked out a different man. Today he pastors a church in Nashville and pulls back the curtain on the industry that raised him. Luke and Nate get into the studios and the gatekeepers, Operation Mockingbird and predictive programming, the cost of refusing to play along, and why a remnant armed with nothing but a small stone still terrifies the giant. It is one of the most candid Hollywood conversations the show has hosted and one of the more remarkable testimonies of God's redemption you will ever hear.
