There are moments in life that break us and moments that remake us. Mo Isom Aiken's story is one of both. From an Elite Division 1, All-American athlete to a woman haunted by trauma, addiction, and suicidal despair, Mo's life took a dramatic turn when a near-fatal car crash became the very altar where heaven met earth. What followed was a supernatural encounter with the Holy Spirit that not only saved her life, but ignited a transformation so complete it would ripple through her marriage, her motherhood, and her mission around the world. This isn't just a story of redemption. It's a call to awaken to the invisible spiritual warfare waging over every soul—and to the freedom that comes with surrendering everything.In this episode of the Revelations Podcast, host Reagan Kramer sits down with Mo Isom Aiken for an unfiltered, deeply moving conversation that spans trauma, healing, and the raw power of a life fully yielded to Jesus. Mo opens up about growing up in the Bible Belt, navigating father wounds and performance-based identity, and the spiritual warfare that nearly claimed her life. Together, they explore Mo's radical encounter with God in the wreckage of her Jeep, the prophetic call that led her family from a fifth-wheel RV across 48 states to the mission fields of Nigeria, and the power of intercession that reshaped her view of prayer entirely.This episode is for the believer who feels stuck in cycles of shame or silence, the seeker longing to hear God's voice again, or the weary warrior who needs to remember what it means to defect from the kingdom of darkness and live fully alive in Christ.Here are three reasons why you should listen to this episode:Gain deeper understanding of how a supernatural encounter with God can occur amidst unimaginable personal tragedy.Learn how radical obedience—like selling everything and living in an RV—can unlock divine provision and spiritual growth.Reflect on the importance of prayer, spiritual warfare, and intimacy with the Holy Spirit in a chaotic world.Become Part of Our Mission!

That lie keeps us stuck, powerless, and numb to God's call.Cultural Christianity is an illusion; we should consider what full surrender actually looks like.Mo Isom Aiken, a former All-American athlete turned revivalist and prophetic voice shares her story of defection from darkness—and the fire of obedience that followed.[02:56] Mo Isom Aiken: Childhood and Early LifeMo discovered her identity through competitive sports.Despite being raised in a Christian household, her faith was cultural and lacked deep personal roots.She describes the impact of early exposure to pornography and the pressure of performance-based love from her father.Her struggle with an eating disorder and need for control remained hidden behind a mask of success.[12:22] Transition to College and Personal StrugglesAt LSU, Mo excels as an All-American goalkeeper but continues battling inward brokenness.[13:02] Mo: “How much of my true self and my true life can people handle? Because they have this picture of me, and yet I am destroyed inside.”Her father committed suicide, devastating Mo both emotionally and spiritually.She turns to sexual sin, secrecy, and self-harm, wrestling with suicidal thoughts and tormenting spiritual voices.Though publicly praised, she describes living with private torment and deep spiritual oppression.[20:54] Spiritual Awakening and HealingMo survives a violent car crash and has a supernatural encounter with the Holy Spirit while trapped in the wreckage.She describes the weight and wonder of God's presence as overwhelming yet freeing.[22:58] Mo: “The kingdom of darkness was literally mad because things had been set up in my life that my gifts, my talents, my destiny, my anointing, my very God, given fingerprint of God, purpose was going to be leveraged for evil was going to advance the kingdom of darkness, if not for the mercy of Jesus”In that moment, she chooses full surrender to Jesus and receives a baptism of fire.Her salvation marks a clear defection from darkness into God's Kingdom—spiritually, emotionally, and physically.[28:20] Recognizing God in the Midst of DarknessMo reflects on how God pursued her even during seasons of rebellion and bondage.She shares a deliverance session where a spirit confessed she had “defected” from its kingdom.The conversation highlights how spiritual warfare is strategic and real—but God's grace is more powerful.Mo encourages listeners to stop excusing bondage and fully embrace the invitation to be made whole.[33:22] Impact of Faith on Personal RelationshipsReturning to campus, Mo feels conviction and begins separating from old friends and sinful patterns.She committed herself to purity and obedience, even when it meant facing rejection and isolation.[39:07] Mo: “But if you won't separate yourselves from the ones who are holding you back from your destiny — then you've tightly gripped something God's asking you to open your hands about right? When you open your hands, when you let go of things, He will then, in time, refill what is His good portion.”Through FCA, she found a godly community, received a baptism at LSU, and experienced revival.A two-year intimacy fast sets the stage for meeting her husband, Jeremiah, and building a Christ-centered family.[46:45] Fifth Wheel Missions and Family LifeMo recalls receiving a prophetic word in college about living in a fifth-wheel RV and going on mission.A decade later, she and Jeremiah sell everything and travel the U.S. with their four kids, sharing the gospel.She shares how moments of humor and hardship—like a sewage overflow—shaped their faith and resilience.The RV season prepared them for deeper obedience and future international missions.[56:44] Mission to Nigeria and Angelic VisitMo recounts a dream where an angel tells her she'll go to Nigeria to forge a deeper connection to the divine.Initially resistant due to fear for her children, she surrenders and receives confirmation from her mentors.The family spent eight months in Lagos serving under Nigerian spiritual leaders.Their time becomes a season of discipleship, humility, and spiritual equipping for future ministry.[1:14:19] The Power of Prayer: Greatest Takeaway from NigeriaMo describes prayer as the single greatest lesson from their mission season.In Nigeria, daily prayer was non-negotiable—fostering spiritual strength, wisdom, and breakthrough.She challenges Western believers to move prayer from a fallback to a foundation.Prayer, she emphasizes, is the gateway to discernment, power, and intimacy with God.[1:21:24] Teaching the Next Generation to Prioritize PrayerMo and Reagan discuss the difficulty of maintaining a prayerful life amid Western busyness and distractions.Mo explains how she and Jeremiah are raising their children to see prayer as essential, not optional.They commit to resisting hustle culture and modeling devotion in everyday life.Mo calls for prayer warriors to arise—those who walk in reverence, not performance. [1:32:39] Spiritual Warfare and the Call to Live Fully SurrenderedMo prays a powerful blessing over listeners for renewal, healing, and sanctification.Revival begins in surrendered hearts, not just pulpits; it is in living God's Word to be kind and loving to all those around you.It is our time to live fully awake, defecting from darkness and advancing God's Kingdom with boldness. About Mo Isom AikenMo Isom Aiken is a prophetic voice, revivalist, and bestselling author whose life and ministry are marked by radical obedience, spiritual boldness, and supernatural transformation. A former all-American goalkeeper at LSU, Mo encountered the living God in a near-fatal car accident that became a divine turning point. From the ashes of trauma, addiction, and loss—including her father's suicide—Mo rose into deep intimacy with Jesus and a calling to call others out of darkness and into the light. With more than 14 years of experience speaking, teaching, and discipling, Mo now carries a powerful anointing for deliverance, prayer, and spiritual awakening.Alongside her husband Jeremiah and their four children, Mo lives as part of a family on mission—mobilizing across America in a fifth-wheel RV before being prophetically sent to Nigeria through an angelic encounter. Their journey is a living testimony of surrendered faith, courageous intercession, and generational restoration. Whether preaching in churches, serving the overlooked, or training others in spiritual warfare, Mo is driven by one purpose: to see Jesus made known, captives set free, and the Kingdom of God established on earth as it is in heaven.Connect with Mo on her website or socials: Instagram, Facebook, or X.Enjoyed this Episode?If you did, subscribe and share it with your friends!Post a review and share it!

Episode 246: Can a Christian Be Demonized?One of the powers which Jesus promised to his followers was the ability to cast out demons (Mark 16:17-18). This is undebatable. What is debatable, however, is whether a born-again Christian ever has the need to have demonic activity broken off from their lives. In this hard-hitting, controversial episode of Mavericks & misfits, Jeff Lyle pulls no punches when establishing from multiple passages of Scriptures that Christians can be demonized. In order to believe otherwise, the skeptic must have answers to these passages of Scripture. In the end, M&M subscribers are asked to think biblically, but also to reason through why it makes sense that demons would proactively strategize to influence and afflict Christians. This episode should settle in our hearts and minds whether or not a Christian can be demonized.

These wounds created a deep fear in him, and he always tried to hide from new environments.Through God, Rob found his soul healed. Today, he has the strength to fearlessly travel the world to spread God's healing.Reagan Kramer reflects on how many people can relate to childhood experiences that impact their soul and how they may not realize it.Rob explains that the soul is synonymous with the Old Testament concept of the heart. It is the center of human operations.Many people do not give enough importance to the idea of the soul, and Reagan thinks it is used too flippantly in the modern day.[6:35] Starting the Soul Care MovementRob Reimer started the soul care movement after planting a church in Boston.He experienced a marriage crisis that led him to realize the need for personal change rather than focusing on the other person's issues.But Rob was able to overcome this crisis through his faith. He received principles to live by from God, and applied them to his life.Today, he feels confident enough to pass on these principles to help others, leading to the development of his book and ministry.[8:30] Narcissism and Self-CenterednessEveryone has a bias towards self. That self-centeredness is a result of sin. But focusing on oneself leads to misery, while focusing on Jesus and others brings peace.Rob describes a powerful idea: the biblical concept of dying to self as essential for experiencing abundant life in Christ.Dying to self involves overcoming self-centeredness, self-protection, and self-reliance. Reagan Kramer herself has found that this concept helped her in her spiritual journey.Without dying to self, Christ cannot be formed in a person, and they remain bound by their sinful nature.[13:05] Repentance, Brokenness, and Soul CareDr. Rob explains the first step, identity, and its importance in Christian life. True identity is found in Christ, who makes us part of His family.The second step, repentance, heals the soul and places us in God's presence.Repentance is part of the good news of Jesus and essential for living in His light. Rob points out the Western value of tolerance with the biblical concept of sin and repentance.People are more open to discussing their brokenness and dysfunction than their sinfulness.Reagan Kramer agrees, noting that many people are desperate for healing and open to solutions, even if they don't understand the theological aspects.[26:11] Breaking Family Sin PatternsThere exist patterns of sin in families that we must break. This unaddressed sin can have a devastating impact on future generations.Rob uses the example of Abraham's family sin pattern of favoritism and how it continued through his descendants.Breaking free from sinful patterns and living a holy life is a noble and honorable goal that emphasizes soul care.Furthermore, addressing these family sin patterns requires profound trust and honesty. The healing process will come by being open to each other.[32:01] Forgiveness and Overcoming FearForgiveness is difficult because we are afraid. Fear prevents us from accessing forgiveness.However, Rob emphasizes the importance of forgiving those who sin against us to allow God's healing and peace to flow in our lives.Rob shares his personal experience of forgiving a man who spread lies about him, demonstrating the power of obedience to Jesus' commands.Forgiveness and overcoming fear are essential for living a life free from anxiety and the bondage of sin.[49:42] Healing Wounds and DeliveranceMoving forward in freedom is easier if we begin by healing wounds from the past. Unresolved anger and pain create barriers to God's healing and must be addressed.God's deliverance lets us cast out demonic spirits that cause torment and bondage in our souls.These wounds or indwelling demons might even be the result of generational curses that went unresolved.Reagan Kramer shares her personal experience of hearing demonic manifestations and the importance of the Church in setting people free.About Rob ReimerDr. Rob Reimer is the founder and president of Renewal International, a ministry dedicated to equipping believers, pastors, and leaders worldwide to experience spiritual renewal and live in the fullness of the Holy Spirit.

NFL wide receiver Tyreek Hill is clocked speeding by police and pulled over. Once stopped police see he's also not wearing his seatbelt. That's two driving infractions right there—but that's not enough for Hill. Hill also decides to be unlawfully non-compliant with lawful orders given by the police for purposes of safety, to the point where the police must compel compliance by dragging him from his car, detaining him, cuffing him, and sitting him down on the sidewalk.The bad actor in all this? I'd say that's Tyreek Hill—but of course, a large swath of the internet disagrees with me, as usual.

In this episode of the "Inflamed in the Brain" podcast, host and registered dietitian Krissy Carbo explores why oats are suddenly being demonized, despite their longstanding reputation as a healthy food. Krissy shares her insights on the latest trends and controversies surrounding oats, including their carb content, links to glyphosate, and how to eat oats in a way that supports your health. She also offers tips for enjoying oats without succumbing to diet culture's "good" or "bad" food labels.Understanding Oats:Krissy begins by explaining the different types of oats commonly found in grocery stores:Rolled Oats: These are whole oat groats that are steamed and flattened, cooking in about 5-10 minutes. They are used in oatmeal and granola.Steel-Cut Oats: These are chopped into small pieces, offering a coarser texture and chewy consistency. They take longer to cook, around 20-30 minutes.Quick-Cook Oats: Also known as instant oats, they are pre-cooked and cut into smaller pieces, cooking in just 1-2 minutes.Why Are Oats Considered Bad?Krissy addresses the growing negativity around oats, focusing on two key points:Carb Content: Oats are high in carbohydrates, leading to blood sugar spikes when eaten alone. Rapid blood sugar changes can cause fatigue and irritability, and over time, contribute to inflammation and chronic diseases.Glyphosate Concerns: General Mills, a popular oat brand, has been linked to high levels of glyphosate, a controversial herbicide associated with cancer risks.How Oats Can Benefit Your Health:Despite the criticism, Krissy explains the health benefits of oats:Lowering Cholesterol: Oats contain beta-glucan, a soluble fiber that helps lower LDL cholesterol by binding to bile acids and eliminating them from the body.Supporting the Microbiome: The fiber in oats acts as a prebiotic, providing nutrition for beneficial gut bacteria, promoting gut health, and reducing inflammation.A Smarter Way to Eat Oats:To get the most out of oats without the downsides, Krissy suggests pairing them with protein and healthy fats:Overnight Oats: Combine oats with protein powder or yogurt for a balanced breakfast.Hot Oatmeal: Add protein powder or eat with eggs, and top with nuts or seeds.Oat Milk: If you use oat milk in coffee, add protein to balance the carbs.Outro:Krissy concludes by reminding listeners that oats are not inherently bad, but need to be eaten mindfully to support health. She emphasizes the importance of avoiding food labeling and finding balanced ways to incorporate favorite foods into your diet.

All 3 gospels tell us that immediately after the experience on the mountain where Jesus had been transfigured, Jesus and the three were confronted with a situation in which the rest of the band had been unable to cure an epileptic boy. Jesus asserted his authority over the demons and gave some significant teaching on the importance of faith. When asking Jesus why they could not cast it out, Jesus replied to them that it was because of their “little faith.” The context seems to suggest that their faith is still in an immature stage. It has not yet grown up to what it will be.The emphasis in the passage can be found in the words, “you will say.” In other words, what you were able to do today, is not necessarily what you will be able to do in the future. Your faith today will eventually grow to the point where you will be able to face these same kind of situation and in faith, you will see that it is grown to the place where it can and will with it.

[07:27] Reagan: “We do not understand the things that the early church fathers understood, and that Jesus was trying to tell us.”[10:29] On the Origins of AngelsChasity talks about sons of God in the Old Testament and New Testament and who they were. Other contexts indicate that what we think are "angels" are actually "watchers" — entities meant to watch over humanity.The Nephilim are giants in some translations, but in others, they're the fallen angels.[16:08] The Days of NoahSome translations indicate that Noah was "pure", as in not evil.However, other sources show that Noah's purity was genetic purity — as his line was unmodified.There was supposedly an incursion on Earth 500 years before the Flood that tampered with human genes and corrupted the planet.Chasity thinks that we're re-approaching the level of wickedness that necessitated the Great Flood.The signs of Christ's coming will be in the sun, moon, and stars, and it will be as it was in the days of Noah.[22:12] The Motivations of DarknessThe fallen angels, according to the Book of Enoch, will receive no justice and no mercy.Since they will receive no mercy at the hands of God, they seek to make us sin as well.After being cast out of Heaven, the fallen also sinned against humanity — so we will be their judges. [23:19] Chasity: “These angelic principalities that transgressed as we're told in Jude, they transgressed the their first estate, their estate in heaven, and they came here, and they issued injustice upon humanity.”[25:44] Ancient Technology in the Modern WorldOnly one faction of angels came down to lust for human women. Another faction supposedly taught witchcraft and sorcery.Cush, son of Ham, found a stone tablet that contained the knowledge of the fallen angels.Chasity thinks that the modern-day medicine we use to cure illnesses comes from fallen angels.[32:31] Why We Need to KnowThe words, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?" were also said by David in the Psalms.David was at the base of Mount Hermon, surrounded by bulls — but these bulls were not animals, but demons.Accessing dark knowledge gives evil entities a foothold in your soul, and the souls of your children through generational curses.[37:33] On This Rock I Will Build My ChurchThe rock that Jesus is talking about is Mount Hermon — the place where the fallen angels came to Earth.Chasity says that the name of the Greek god Pan is a corruption of the Hebrew name "Dan".Dan was cursed by Moses — and a representation of Dan is believed to be the Antichrist.Jesus' proclamation is made even more powerful when you realize that he was practically at the source point of evil on Earth.[41:54] Clinging to GodChasity acknowledges that taking in this knowledge can be exhausting.She thinks that God has given her the supernatural strength to continue her podcast and research without tiring. [43:43] Chasity: “There's so much division happening right now with politics, with religion, with nations with race, with gender, all these different topics that are happening right now where we are being divided, and conquered on all fronts.” We need to understand that our enemies are not flesh and blood, but evil itself.About ChasityChasity is the owner and host of the Ancient Conspiracies podcast, where she goes over the connections between history, Biblical text, and extra-Biblical writing to uncover knowledge about the world that most may not know exists.Join her to seek the truth on her website.Enjoyed this Episode?If you did, subscribe and share it with your friends!Post a review and share it!

How can a person possibly have a demon? Lisa shares an introduction to deliverance and explains demonization!What do we mean by deliverance? It is being set free from what we cannot break free from ourselves: Sin. Bondage. Habits, Unclean Spirits, Wounds and More! DrivenToBeFree.org (Online Mag)MiracleofDeliverance.comRecommended article: Can a Christian Have a Demon? About 95% of what we Do is helping people to hear from God themselves, teaching them to take thoughts captive, seeking God to close doors, praying, and loving people. Notes on Matthew 12:43-45 and Luke 11:24-26 When cast out, according to scriptures, the unclean spirits: Goes through dry places means: Places without Water Look for rest Make decisions and determine where it will go Checks to see if the man is inhabitable.Talk to itself and also calls the man “his house.” (Statement of ownership.) Seeks out other spirits and invites seven more wicked than themselves to go back into a specific person.Evil spirits are unclean spirits without a body in search of a home. Not human. Demons operate from two alternative positions: 1. From outside the body 2. From within the body If they operate from outside, we must resist them (see James 4:7; 1 Peter 5:8–9) If they operate from within, we must expel them (see Matt. 8:16; Mark 1:39) The great distinctive mark of demon activity: restlessness “Activity of Demons” notes Taken from Derek Prince Study Note Outline DD1 Can a Christian be influenced/ infected by an unclean spirit? Better question: Are there believers who are influenced/infected by bondage, fear, addictions, heaviness, jealousy, and pride? Ephesians 6:16 above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one. 1 Peter 5:8 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour Mark 4:15 And these are the ones by the wayside where the word is sown. When they hear, Satan comes immediately and takes away the word that was sown in their hearts. Acts 5:3 But Peter said, “Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Spirit and keep back part of the price of the land for yourself? 1 Corinthians 5:52 Corinthians 12:7 7 Reasons for Believers in Bondage 1. Pride 2. Ignorance –Don't know they can be free. 3. Unbelief- Don't believe they can. 4. Fear – Afraid of demons or how it will look…what people think. Some Other reasons people will not be free: 5. A spirit is interfering with their mind or body. 6. They aren't ready to submit an area or situation. 7. They like the influence. Holy Spirit is our comforter. Our God is our security.

Don't Resale the Lies You Bought OBLITERATE them, so no one else gets a hold of them, and Unlearn them Reeducate yourself and teach that which is True. The biggest lie that has been propagated throughout the network marketing profession is that Direct Outreach to your target market is a bad idea. In the real business world, this happens every day, it is a normal, common, business practice, it is called headhunting. How is it possible that such a common sense, logical approach to finding frustrated distributors in other companies that you may be able to help, has been DEMONIZED? In this session, Mr. Calvert will share with you how this false philosophy has been propagated throughout the MLM industry to pad the pockets of a few and keep the masses blind. It is our hope that this session doesn't just give you a paradigm shift but actually makes you ashamed that you have participated in spreading the #1 lie in Network Marketing. False ideas have been propagated throughout the network marketing industry to keep the checks in those in legacy companies from dwindling away and the newbies and the naive depending on self-proclaimed gurus and their next course or seminar.
Can Christians Be Demonized? Exploring Charismatic Teachings Of Demon Possession & Demon OppressionJoin us as we delve into the widely held charismatic teachings that assert Christians cannot be demonized. We'll examine and challenge this belief by exploring two key quotes from prominent figures like Chuck Smith, as well as a comprehensive position paper from the Assemblies of God. With a balanced and respectful approach, we present counterarguments, drawing from biblical references and historical context to gently disagree and provide a compelling refutation of these charismatic notions.But that's not all – we take our investigation a step further by delving into the writings of church fathers who hold an opposing perspective. Through quotes and thoughtful commentary, we highlight the historical continuity of the belief that Christians can indeed be subject to demonic influence. By juxtaposing these historical perspectives with the modern charismatic stance, we aim to foster a deeper understanding of this complex theological topic.Join us for an exploration that encourages critical thinking and a nuanced understanding of charismatic teachings regarding demonization. Whether you're a believer seeking to deepen your faith or simply interested in theological discussions, this video offers a comprehensive analysis that invites viewers to consider different viewpoints and engage in meaningful dialogue.Remnant Conferencewww.remnantconferences.com___________________________________________________________________________________Donate (Paypal)https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=GC2Z86XHHG4X6___________________________________________________________________________________Exclusive Content (Patreon)https://www.patreon.com/TheRemnantRadio___________________________________________________________________________________Joshua Lewis's Church: Kings Fellowshiphttps://kingsfellowshipchurch.com/___________________________________________________________________________________Michael Rowntree's Church Bridgewayhttps://www.bridgewaychurch.com/___________________________________________________________________________________Michael Miller's Church Reclamation Churchhttps://reclamationdenver.com/___________________________________________________________________________________Kairos Classroom: Use Promo Code Remnant for 10% offhttps://kairosclassroom.com/classes__________________________________________________________________________________Remnant Newsletterhttps://theremnantradio.beehiiv.com/__________________________________________________________________________________Free Mini E-coursehttps://remnant-university.teachable.com/p/free-mini-course Support the show

“With the exception of the medical boards, all the authorities, or all the [organizations] in Brazil, they never wondered whether we saved lives or not. They just wanted to charge me as guilty.”Dr. Flavio Cadegiani is one of Brazil's leading scientists, specializing in endocrinology and sports medicine. He has published 25 peer-reviewed papers on COVID-19, including a landmark study showing a dramatic reduction in deaths and hospitalization in patients given proxalutamide, an affordable, off-label treatment.“All the real good molecules that are out there, none of them belong to any of these pharma that try to push the vaccines and expensive drugs as treatments,” he says.After the former president of Brazil began citing his research, Dr. Cadegiani became public enemy #1. Demonized as “anti-science,” he spent months under investigation and was ultimately vindicated by the Brazilian medical boards, which acquitted him unanimously of any wrongdoing in his clinical trials.“I just can tell you that I used to be a very down-to-earth person, a very anti-conspiracy person. But some of the things that I really believed that did not exist, they actually do,” said Dr. Cadegiani, who considers the smear campaign against him to be a form of “sciencesplaining,” in which activists and members of the mainstream media who are not skilled in the scientific method lecture renowned practitioners such as Dr. Cadegiani about what constitutes “science.”“When did the system go too far?” he asks. “I think that in COVID, this clearly happened.”
Demonic possession[1] and oppression is a real-life battle between good and evil, where someone's body can be taken over or affected by an evil spirit. Thankfully, we have a true Savior in Jesus.

He also discussed the realities of demonic influences, as well as how the Lord's presence offers redemption and true freedom. Finally, he talks about his Shine in the World ministry and its mission to bring the gospel and miraculous healing to nations. Join us as we learn the value of living in the light, breaking free from demonic possession and generational curses, and accepting God's full power in our lives.Here are three reasons why you should listen to this episode:Explore the extraordinary power of deliverance in the face of demonic oppression..Gain valuable insights on how to spread God's mission.Discover the impact of sharing one's faith with boldness and passion.ResourcesMore from the Revelations Podcast: Website | Instagram | Apple PodcastTo learn more about Dr. Sammy Wanyonyi, visit his website or reach him through Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedinKnow more about Shine in the World Ministries (SHINE)Bible Verses:Luke 4:18Revelation 3:16 John 14:12-14Luke 10:19The Revelations Podcast's mission is to spread the Gospel and encourage believers across the world to walk in faith and love, but we cannot do it alone.

Sammy: “We know that when the gospel of Jesus Christ goes out, it goes out to bring salvation, but also healing and deliverance. That's the mission of Jesus.”[21:02] On Evangelism, Healing, and Deliverance Reagan: “I think that's the missing link sometimes. Evangelism, healing, and deliverance go together.”Believers need to carry God's mission forward.When the gospel is preached, we set captives free from demons and heal the sick.[24:02] Casting Demons Away People might be possessed by demons without being aware of it.Occult practices can give the devil access and control over a person's flesh.God initially granted humanity authority over the Earth. However, through Adam and Eve's fall, this authority was relinquished to Satan.When we receive Christ, our allegiance shifts, and the demon no longer has legal authority over us.[33:50] Light and Darkness There is no middle ground; we must choose to be fully in the light or in the darkness.False churches claim to walk in between, yet this is impossible.Deliverance is essential and ought to be welcomed. Sammy: “Those that will claim that they are walking in between, you cannot. You're either in the light or in the darkness. As Jesus says, you're either hot or cold. You can't be lukewarm, I'll spew you out.”[36:46] Generational Curses If we want to fully experience God's grace in our lives and have an impact on others, we must identify and renounce generational hindrances. Generational curses are real and require intentional prayer and renunciation.We experience the eternal and present consequences of walking in God's freedom when we embrace the fullness of His might and break free from entanglements.[39:30] On Demonic InfluenceChristians cannot be owned by demonic influences but can be influenced or oppressed by them.Satan attempted to influence and manipulate Jesus throughout His ministry.Even Church leaders may be demonized, leading to actions that contradict God's will.Satan exploits our fleshly desires, thus emphasizing the importance of living by the Spirit to avoid giving room for demonic influence.[45:12] Completing The Book of ActsThe book of Acts is a continuation of God's work through the body of Christ, and it is still ongoing today.Believers are called to walk in the fullness of God's power until Jesus returns.The power and manifestation of God's work through the Church and believers are present and active in the world today.[51:40] Training Christians to Cast Away DemonsConfronting the demons requires wisdom and discernment. Not every instance requires immediate engagement.Deliverance from demonic influence is by invitation; It is important to discern the readiness and openness of people.Sharing the gospel and leading someone to Christ can grant authority to drive out evil and bring people freedom and joy.[58:07] On Sharing the GospelSharing the gospel is a lifestyle and should be integrated into our daily interactions.Bible studies provide an opportunity to bring individuals closer to Jesus Christ and should not be missed.Politeness should not prevent us from offering people the opportunity to give their lives to Christ.Seizing every opportunity to share the gospel helps others come to Christ and protects them from spiritual dangers.Planting seeds of truth paves the way for future opportunities to bring others closer to the Lord.[01:00:48] Demons are Always PresentDemons are constantly active and work through cultural expressions and channels.Satan wants people to think he doesn't exist, operating incognito to cause devastation.Many issues attributed to medical or psychological origins may have demonic roots that require prayer and spiritual intervention.Deliverances and healings in Africa revealed the connection between demonic influence and physical ailments, emphasizing the need for spiritual discernment.[01:08:19] Lean on God's PowerThe Holy Spirit dwells within us and can bring healing to our physical bodies.Healing extends beyond physical diseases, including emotional, mental, and spiritual renewal. Testimonies of healing serve as powerful reminders of God's faithfulness and encourage us to seek His healing touch in our lives.[01:10:40] Starting God's Mission Recognize the burning passion in your heart as a sign from the Holy Spirit.Spend time with the Lord, seek His guidance and fill yourself with the power of the Holy Spirit.Be passionate in proclaiming the gospel and His authority in every situation.Approach your church with humility and wisdom, converse with your pastor and respect their authority while sharing Lord's promptings.[01:14:35] Sammy's Book on Deliverance His ministry focuses on evangelistic outreach and regularly conducts training sessions.Sammy has been reading numerous books and is currently working on writing a comprehensive guide on deliverance.The manifestations and deliverance experienced during his campaigns highlight the power of God to expel demonic influences and bring salvation, deliverance, and grace to people's lives.[01:16:33] Biggest Miracle in Sammy's Ministry The greatest miracle is experiencing salvation and encountering the saving grace of Jesus Christ.Sammy's ministry emphasizes the importance of encountering Jesus rather than focusing purely on healing and deliverance.His ministry cherishes the powerful moments when God's work is manifested in people's lives.About Sammy WanyonyiExperienced World Missionary Leader Sammy Wanyonyi has a burning desire to spread the gospel of Jesus Christ.

We are going to explain how it is possible for a Christian to be demonized. I will be covering some of Sam Storms's articles on the topic of a demon indwelling a Christian. We will not only cover how it is possible but also discuss objections and misconceptions when it comes to demonization. Can a Christian be possessed? What is the difference between possession and oppression? How can the Holy Spirit and a demon dwell in the same place? + Many other questions will be answered.

Patrick Lance joined the Marines to fight for "freedom" but ran straight into the thing he wanted freedom from: dominance. Today, Patrick is still a freedom fighter, but his discovery of genuine freedom (freedom in Christ) has led him to renounce some of the oaths he took in the Marines and face the complicated wounds of the past that drove him to anger and rage. Patrick's journey is a story of deliverance and victory from the powers of death and hell.❤️ SHOW YOUR SUPPORT - LINKS BELOW...➡️ DONATE ➡️ Join our team!https://www.givesendgo.com/karlgesslerfamilybandhttps://www.patreon.com/karlgesslerSocial Media➡️Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100089357625739➡️Telegram - https://t.me/FaithoftheFathers➡️Truth Social - https://truthsocial.com/@UCLOvq6O4aIXLrkKxwXkq3uA ➡️Gab - https://gab.com/KarlGesslerSupport the show

I wrote about the health benefits of using continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) more than ten years ago in The 4-Hour Body. At the time, CGMs were primitive and hard to use. Levels has now made this technology, and the unique insights that come from it, easy and available to everyone. Levels is making glucose monitoring simple, helping you see how food affects your health through real-time feedback. I started tracking my glucose years ago to learn more about what I should and shouldn't be eating (including quantities, time of day, etc.), based on objective data from my own, unique physiology. Keeping my blood sugar stable is critical to my daily and long-term health and performance goals. Furthermore, poor glucose control is associated with a number of chronic conditions like diabetes, Alzheimer's disease, heart disease, and obesity. It's important.If you're interested in learning more about Levels and trying a CGM yourself, go to Levels.link/Tim.*This episode is also brought to you by LMNT! What is LMNT?

Chances are you've seen this storyline play out on either a big or small screen: An FBI agent investigates a prominent labor leader. Or maybe a union boss orders a hit on a recalcitrant member of the rank-and-file. Or perhaps a union president skims money off a pension fund to make an illegal loan. Plotlines like these derive from one of Hollywood's longstanding and most favored tropes: the corrupt, mobbed up union, and more specifically, the corrupt union boss. It lends itself to countless stories: The rise and fall of a Mafia-backed labor head, the rebellion of rank-and-file workers against their tyrannical leadership, the precarious union on the verge of implosion. Accordingly, over and over again, we've seen stories of labor unions entangled with extortion, bribery, blackmail, theft and murder. But, even if union bosses can make compelling characters, why is it that they must all be corrupt mafiosi? Why is it that heroism in pop culture is overwhelmingly the domain of police, attorneys and doctors and hardly ever people fighting for labor rights and the collective power of their co-workers and communities? Why, instead of highlighting the courage of labor organizers and the life-changing protections won, must Hollywood repeatedly emphasize only unions' historical ties to organized crime and a seamy underbelly of corruption, murder and intrigue? On this show, part one of a two-part episode on labor depictions in Hollywood, we explore organized labor and unions in film and television, how these pop depictions inform broader public sentiment about unions. And next week, we'll discuss some of the more positive portrayals of labor and unionism in film and television. Our guest is writer and organizer Ken Margolies.
