Welcome back to Build Your Bible Habit. This is a habit that you'll never want to break. The practical wisdom from daily Proverbs equips us to walk in wisdom, making us better in handling the multiple decisions and interactions that come our way. God left us a GOLD MINE in His Word, and all we need to do is read it and apply it to our lives. The peace of God is not related to our circumstances. It is a result of walking with Him. Friendship is one of many areas touched on in Proverbs 27, and verse 17 gives us a chance to consider friendship from two angles: the kind of friends we choose and the kind of friend that we are to others. God meant for us to keep each other spiritually sharp. Here's a great reminder verse for the week: "Iron sharpeneth iron; so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his friend."

Daily Study Many Christian entrepreneurs want God to increase their business, but growth does not always stop for financial or strategic reasons. This Daily Word examines a leadership principle from 3 John that reveals how truth must be able to move freely through a business for God to scale and sustain it. Using the examples of Gaius, Diotrephes, and Demetrius, this message shows how hospitality allows truth to flow, ego blocks correction, and integrity sustains long-term growth. It also highlights John's warning not to imitate what is evil, explaining how unguarded success can quietly reshape standards and undermine alignment. Christian entrepreneurs are encouraged to examine whether their leadership posture allows truth, accountability, and goodness to govern their decisions so God can trust their business with increase. __________ 3 John 1 CSB, Hebrews 13:1-2 TPT, Romans 12:13 TPT, Proverbs 16:18 ERV, James 4:6 NLT, Proverbs 11:3 MSG, Luke 16:10 NLT __________ Partner with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com/partner Connect with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com Leave a Comment: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com/comments __________
How Mystery Babylon Infiltrates and Influences the Church | KIB 515 Kingdom Intelligence Briefing Description Subtitle: Mystery Babylon in the Church: How a Seductive System Keeps Believers Trapped This Kingdom Intelligence Briefing (episode #515) digs into a hard but crucial question: How has Mystery Babylon infiltrated and influenced the Church? Dr. Michael and Mary Lou Lake unpack how a global Babylonian system has been built around us—politically, economically, spiritually—and how it keeps people "comfortable," passive, and afraid to confront evil. Mary shares a sobering picture the Lord showed her of a Babylonian "cloud system" that pulls people back in whenever they try to step out, and a deeply personal testimony of confronting hidden darkness, trauma, and occult networks. From there, Dr. Lake lays out a powerful biblical teaching on Mystery Babylon's strategy to infiltrate and then influence the Church: Seduction instead of open confrontation Syncretism (mixing paganism with Christianity) Entertainment-based "worship" replacing reverence Prophetic performance instead of true prophetic voices Debt, media, and politics used to pressure pastors The push to blur holiness, law, and biblical authority You'll also hear about current examples, including the Sean Bolz / Bethel prophetic scandal, how fear of confrontation keeps leaders trapped, and why so many ministries will not face what's really going on. Most importantly, this episode is a call to the remnant: To face the truth about Babylon's influence To come out of religious harlotry and man-made empire To return to holiness, the fear of the Lord, biblical depth, and true spiritual warfare To embrace kingdom identity over cultural identity To be willing to suffer well, stand apart, and be "the absolute other" in a collapsing system Dr. Lake closes with a prophetic look at what's ahead in 2026–2027, the coming shaking of Babylon, and a charge to stand firm so you can hear, "Well done, My good and faithful servant." Timeline of Topics Discussed (for Chapters) (Adjust timestamps to match your final edit.) 00:00 – Biblical Life intro & opening montage Program intro: Biblical Life TV mission to empower the remnant for the last days. 02:00 – Welcome to KIB 515 & severe winter weather Dr. Michael and Mary Lou share about the heavy snow, partner prayers, and God's faithfulness. 05:00 – Mary's vision of the Babylonian "cloud system" Mary explains the picture God showed her: a spiritual Babylonian system like a cloud/vacuum that pulls people back whenever they try to move out. 10:00 – How Babylon keeps people "comfortable" and quiet A seductive spirit whispers, "Don't confront this… you can't change anything… just go along," creating apathy and passivity. 14:00 – Matthew 24, end-time deception, and false prophets Reading from Matthew 24; discussion of deception, lawlessness, and the clear signs we are in the last days. 18:00 – The Sean Bolz / Bethel prophetic scandal Mary reviews the public information: mining social media and conference registrations to fake "prophecy," Bill Johnson's apology, and the refusal to confront earlier. 23:00 – The danger of needing "a word" instead of hearing God for yourself Why the obsession with personal prophecies is dangerous, and encouragement to seek God directly. 27:00 – True prophets vs false prophetic performance Dr. Lake shares earlier experiences with real prophets, how they confront sin, and the fear of the Lord that surrounds true prophetic ministry. 32:00 – Mary's personal testimony: coming out of Babylon and trauma Mary recounts her own journey: Deep depression and blocked memories A whistleblower woman who exposed local occult and corruption Fort Leonard Wood hospital stories, missing babies, and a man who claimed to be her son The cost of facing painful truth and choosing to confront instead of deny 42:00 – The necessity of spiritual warfare and praying your own way out Mary exhorts listeners: no one can do all your praying for you; you must engage spiritual warfare and choose not to participate in Babylon. 47:00 – Dr. Lake's thesis: How Mystery Babylon infiltrates and influences the Church Mystery Babylon as a counterfeit religious, political, and economic system that works by infiltration → influence → substitution. 52:00 – Adaptability of Babylon vs. slowness of the Church Babylon's guerrilla tactics and tentacles versus a tradition-bound Church that defends man-made customs over the Word of God. 56:00 – Syncretism: blending the Bible with pagan and occult ideas How pagan practices, New Age methods, and even Masonic material have been baptized into "Christian" ministries and prophetic schools. 1:02:00 – Counterfeit revelation & prophetic manipulation Dreams, visions, and "secret knowledge" used to undermine Scripture and create dependence on personalities instead of the written Word. 1:07:00 – Entertainment-driven church vs biblical worship From temple worship to Vegas-style services; why emotional spectacle has replaced reverence, holiness, and the fear of the Lord. 1:12:00 – Doctrines Babylon wants silenced Holiness, repentance, judgment, spiritual warfare (rightly understood), the sovereignty of Christ, and separation from the world. 1:16:00 – Co-opting clergy: prestige, platforms, money & media How Babylon uses publishing, media, influence, and economics to pressure pastors to avoid controversial truth and protect "the machine." 1:21:00 – Debt structures and analytics-driven sermons Stories of massive church overhead, the temptation to preach what keeps offerings high, and the danger of corporate thinking in ministry. 1:26:00 – Political courtship and religious compromise The trap of trying to gain legitimacy through political power instead of maintaining a prophetic witness that confronts kings and systems. 1:30:00 – Higher criticism, liberal theology, and demythologizing Scripture How treating the Bible like mere literature drains the supernatural and opens the door to Babylonian thinking. 1:34:00 – Marks of Babylonian theology in the Church Universalism, lawlessness (antinomianism), Gnosticism, man-centered religion, hybrid mysticism, and moral relativism. 1:39:00 – Babylon's endgame: replacing the bride with the harlot Proverbs and Revelation's two women: the pure bride and the whore of Babylon; Babylon's goal to transform the visible church into a one-world religious system. 1:44:00 – How the remnant resists Babylon Biblical literacy and theological depth Holiness and separation Discerning of spirits rooted in the fear of the Lord Seeing the Bible as a war book from Genesis 1 Kingdom identity over cultural identity Prophetic voice over prophetic performance 1:51:00 – Suffering well, covenant faithfulness, and coming judgment Why suffering for truth is part of our calling and how God will reward faithful servants as Babylon is judged. 1:56:00 – 2026–2027: days ahead and God's remnant Dr. Lake's view that things will get "interesting" in 2026–2027 and his prayer that listeners stand firmly in the Kingdom when the dust settles. 2:00:00 – Final exhortation: "Come out of her, My people" Revelation 18:4, a call to separate from Babylon so we do not share in her plagues, and a closing prayer for the remnant to be established in the Kingdom.

EXODUS 4:1-5:21 | MATTHEW 18:1-20 | PSALM 22:19-31 | PROVERBS 5:15-21

One of the most important and powerful responsibilities of parents is to bless their children and not curse them. In episode eight of “Raising Godly Warriors,” Duane Sheriff teaches that nothing shapes a child's future more than understanding and receiving the Lord's blessing. Proverbs 10:22 explains that God's blessing is more than material prosperity—it is His favor, grace, affirmation, and unconditional love.Blessing is transferred to children through intentional words, loving touch, and genuine forgiveness. From God's public affirmation of Jesus in Matthew 3 to the priestly blessing in Numbers 6 and Jesus blessing children in Mark 10, Scripture reveals a clear pattern: blessings are spoken, modeled, and imparted. When parents choose to speak life, release forgiveness, and affirm their children's God-given identity, they don't just impact a single generation—they shape a legacy of faith, favor, and strength that will echo for years to come.
Prayer is an adventure in trust. We put our needs into the hands of an almighty God, who has the power to meet our needs according to His will. What will God do? We don't know, but we do know that what God does is right. His answer and His actions may not make sense to our finite minds and limited understanding, but the will and purpose of God are always correct.Main Points:1. When we have a need, it's normal to be anxious, to worry, and to wonder what will happen. This is our human response to uncertainty. Yet, when we pray we choose to trust. When we pray we choose to believe God. 2. What an adventure it is to wait on God and see what He will do. The waiting is not always pleasant, but the longer we serve Jesus, the more confidence we have in the waiting. We know God is up to something. We don't see it yet, but we are confident testimony of His faithfulness is coming soon.3. Faith in God is a choice. It's a decision to believe and to trust that He is working all things for your good, according to His purpose.Today's Scripture Verses:2 Corinthians 4:18 - “So we don't look at the troubles we can see now; rather, we fix our gaze on things that cannot be seen. For the things we see now will soon be gone, but the things we cannot see will last forever.” Hebrews 11:1 - “Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.”Mark 9:21-24 - “Jesus asked the boy's father, “How long has he been like this?” “From childhood,” he answered. “It has often thrown him into fire or water to kill him. But if you can do anything, take pity on us and help us.” “‘If you can'?” said Jesus. “Everything is possible for one who believes.” Immediately the boy's father exclaimed, “I do believe; help me overcome my unbelief!”Proverbs 3:5 - “Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding.” Quick Links:Donate to support this podcastLeave a review on Apple PodcastsGet a copy of The 5 Minute Discipleship JournalConnect on SocialJoin The 5 Minute Discipleship Facebook Group
Proverbs 20:10–12 reveals the Lord's concern for justice, integrity, and spiritual awareness. Dishonest weights and measures are an abomination to God, exposing how corruption often hides behind everyday transactions. Yet the passage also reminds us that the Lord Himself fashioned the hearing ear and the seeing eye—nothing escapes His notice. In today's Morning Manna, Rick Wiles and Doc Burkhart examine how God measures fairness, why integrity matters in both public and private life, and how living wisely begins with remembering that the God who gave us eyes and ears also sees and hears all.

In this powerful and thought-provoking episode of the 9941 Podcast, Granger, Tyler, Parker and AntMan tackle a rapidly growing cultural trend: AI girlfriends, boyfriends, and digital soulmates. What starts as a discussion about emerging AI companion technology quickly becomes a deep, biblical examination of love, loneliness, identity, and God’s design for human relationships. The guys explore how artificial intelligence is being marketed as emotional companionship — even romantic partnership — and why that trend poses serious spiritual, emotional, and societal dangers. They reference real-world examples like hologram companions and AI chatbot “relationships,” including platforms that introduced erotic roleplay features and the emotional fallout when those features were removed. Using Scripture as their foundation, the conversation moves into what the Bible teaches about love, human connection, and God’s design for marriage. Passages from 2 Timothy 4, Proverbs 14, and Romans 1 are used to show how redefining love and pursuing artificial substitutes for real relationships leads people away from truth and toward spiritual harm. The hosts also address deeper heart issues behind the appeal of AI relationships — loneliness, sexual temptation, fear of rejection, and the desire for unconditional affirmation. They emphasize that while AI may seem safe and customizable, it ultimately replaces real sanctifying relationships and distracts people from Christ, the Church, and the gospel. The episode closes with a clear gospel message, reminding listeners that true love, fulfillment, and rest are found in Jesus alone — not in manufactured affection or digital fantasy. The guys issue a firm warning against pursuing romantic or emotional relationships with AI and encourage believers to trust God with their singleness, relationships, and longing for connection. *************** Follow the show: Instagram - https://www.Instagram.com/9941thepodcast Facebook - https://www.Facebook.com/9941thepodcast YouTube - https://www.YouTube.com/@9941ThePodcast Online - https://www.9941ThePodcast.com Shop - https://yeeyee.com/collections/faithSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

-Jeff Durbin- Proverbs 24:23-26 Today, we continue our study in the Book of Proverbs and are learning about God's call to speak the truth about the evil around us. We are called to abandon the commitment we have to our favorite faces (partiality) and to tell the truth about the evil or sin that we are presented with There are consequences for blurring the lines of what is actually true. Good ones and bad ones May God create in us a humble boldness and we shine the light of His Truth into the world around us.

Instead of offering a formula, Caroline reframes balance as a Spirit-led practice rooted in worship, where we honor our God-given limits while trusting a limitless God. Drawing from Psalms, Mary and Martha, Proverbs 31, and the life of Jesus, the conversation addresses overwhelm, changing seasons, work and rest, giving healthy no's, and recognizing the warning signs of imbalance like bitterness and exhaustion.LINKSCome Home Bible StudyCaroline Saunders ResourcesStory & SoulRECOMMENDED: Trace the theme of home through Scripture in the first episode of our five-episode miniseries with Caroline Saunders on Marked.

It's Monday, January 26th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus The Iranian protests are putting Christians at greater risk The Islamic Republic of Iran is hostile to protestors and Christians alike. Lana Silk of the Christian organization Transform Iran said, “Police are indiscriminately shooting into the crowds. The people try to fight back, but they are unarmed and almost entirely defenseless.” She is certain that more than 12,000 Iranians have been killed, and quite possibly 30,000 or more, reports International Christian Concern. She said, “The streets are now being patrolled by tanks and aggressive armed security forces. People are being rounded up, beaten, imprisoned, and killed. Men, women, and children, it doesn't matter.” Anyone who dares to go outside is in danger. Though Iran's Islamic regime, where 95% of the population is Muslim, treats almost none of its people well, it tends to be especially ruthless with its Christian minority. Iran is currently ranked as the 10th-most oppressive country for Christians. The Iranian government makes no secret about its attitude toward Christianity. Such worship in the country's main language -- Persian, also known as Farsi -- is essentially outlawed, as is any Christian literature written in that language. Matthew 5:10 says, “Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, for theirs is the kingdom of Heaven.” Vice President Vance announces expansion of Mexico City Policy Appearing at the annual March for Life in Washington, D.C. on Friday, Vice President J.D. Vance spoke up for life, reports LifeNews.com. VANCE: “With the Dobbs decision, what the President did, what the Supreme Court did, was put a definitive end to the tyranny of judicial rule on the question of human life. He shattered a 50-year culture of disposability, one that treated human life as expendable the moment that it became inconvenient. And he empowered our nation and our movement to build a culture of life from the grassroots up.” Vice President Vance outlined some of the Trump administration's pro-life accomplishments. VANCE: “We started by undoing the evils we saw under the previous administration, like, for example, throwing priests and grandmothers in prison for praying outside a[n abortion] clinic. That's over; we stopped it. (cheers) “Where the previous administration mandated taxpayer funding for abortions, including travel costs across the entire government, this administration ended it. (cheers) We have expanded conscience protections for health care workers and defended faith based foster care and adoption. “This administration launched fraud investigations into Planned Parenthood affiliates (cheers) for millions of dollars in [Paycheck Protection Program] loans that were unlawfully received and unlawfully forgiven by the Biden administration. You should not be able to commit fraud and use taxpayer money for abortion. It's that simple! (cheers) “At many of our departments, we've reinstated a ban on the use of fetal tissue in federal research. That's another big one, and this is something we're so proud of. We're returning accountability to our foreign policy as well. “Under Joe Biden, it was the policy of the United States to export abortion and radical gender ideology all around the world. That is what they did with your tax money. (boos) They would relentlessly bully developing countries into parroting their far left views. But under President Trump's leadership, and with our great Secretary of State, we believe that every country in the world has the duty to protect life.” And Vice President Vance cited an expansion of the pro-life Mexico City policy. VANCE: “Today, our administration is proud to announce a historic expansion of the Mexico City policy. We're going to start blocking every international [non-governmental organization] that performs or promotes abortion abroad from receiving $1 of U.S. money. (cheers) We're expanding this policy to protect life, to combat DEI, and the radical gender ideologies that prey on our children. “The rule will now cover every non-military foreign assistance that America sends. All in all, we have expanded the Mexico City policy about three times as big as it was before. And we're proud of it because we believe in fighting for life.” Proverbs 31:8 says, “Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves.” ICE shot and killed man in Minneapolis Federal agents shot and killed a 37-year-old man in Minneapolis on Saturday morning, less than three weeks after an ICE agent fatally shot Renee Good, amid an ongoing surge in immigration enforcement action across the city, reports CBS News. Alex Pretti, an ICU nurse who worked at the Minneapolis Veterans Administration hospital, was identified as the man killed by a Border Patrol agent. CBS News in Minneapolis reported, “Videos from the scene show that Pretti was holding a cellphone, not a gun, when he was shot.” However, ICE Commander Gregory Bovino said the agent acted in self-defense after attempting to disarm Pretti. Listen. BOVINO: “An individual approached us Border Patrol agents with a nine millimeter, semi-automatic handgun. The agents attempted to disarm the individual, but he violently resisted. Fearing for his life and the lives and safety of fellow officers, a Border Patrol agent fired defensive shots. “Medics on the scene immediately delivered medical aid to the subject, but the subject was pronounced dead at the scene. The suspect also had two loaded magazines and no accessible ID. “This looks like a situation where an individual wanted to do maximum damage and massacre law enforcement. Then, about 200 rioters arrived at the scene and began to obstruct and assault law enforcement.” That's when an armored ICE vehicle was pelted by stones by angry Leftists. (audio from the streets of Minneapolis) Trump sues JPMorgan Chase for $5 billion over 'political' debanking And finally, President Donald Trump is suing the JPMorgan Chase bank and its CEO Jamie Dimon in a $5 billion lawsuit filed last Thursday, accusing the financial institution of debanking Trump for political reasons, reports Fox Business. The president's attorney, Alejandro Brito, filed the lawsuit Thursday morning in Florida state court in Miami on behalf of the president and several of his hospitality companies. Brito quoted JPMorgan's code of conduct, which states that the bank operates "with the highest level of integrity and ethical conduct." The Trump lawsuit asserts, "Despite claiming to hold these principles dear, [J.P. Morgan Chase violated them by unilaterally—and without warning or remedy—terminating several of [the] Plaintiff's bank accounts." This is not the first time. Sam Brownback, Trump's Ambassador for Religious Freedom, wrote a New York Post column last year in which he said, “If you've ever had a rug pulled out from under you, then you know how it feels to suddenly lose access to your own bank account. That's what happened to me in 2022, when JPMorgan Chase, America's largest bank, abruptly canceled our newly opened account for the National Committee for Religious Freedom. “[We] launched a national campaign to collect and tell the stories of those who, like us, had been canceled or punished by their banks, payment processors or even insurance companies. We found that most debanking victims have two things in common: Their finances are in order, and they're conservative or religious.” Proverbs 11:3 says, “The integrity of the upright guides them, but the unfaithful are destroyed by their duplicity."

What can you do when obedience to God feels like a death sentence? In Esther 4, fear, faith, and divine providence collide and silence is no longer an option.In this episode we'll walk through Esther chapter 4 uncovering how God's unseen hand positions His people long before the crisis arrives. We'll see the tension between God's call and our willingness to answer, the power of fasting and prayer, and the famous turning point: “for such a time as this.”Inside this episode of our Esther Bible Study:Mordecai's public mourning becomes a courageous act of faith and leadership.Esther's fear is real, but faithful action doesn't require the absence of fear.An eye-opening biblical link between Proverbs, Esther, Joel, Matthew, and God's eternal pattern of deliverance.Esther 4 invites us to see our lives through the lens of divine providence, courage, and calling. These themes aren't ancient. They speak directly to moments we're all facing right now.Positioned on purpose. Your circumstances may feel accidental or even the result of your own effort, but Scripture reminds us that God places His people strategically. Like Esther, your influence exists for more than comfort. It exists for obedience.Faith that acts despite fear. Biblical faith doesn't deny risk. It moves forward anyway. Esther shows us that trusting God often means stepping into uncertainty with courage.When God calls, silence isn't neutral. Mordecai's challenge to Esther reveals that silence can cost more than obedience. God's purposes will stand, but how we respond shapes our story.This episode highlights God's providence and reminds us that the same God is still at work today.We love feedback, but can't reply without your email address.

Proverbs 20:7–9 highlights the blessing that flows from integrity and the sobering limits of human righteousness. The just man walks in uprightness, leaving a legacy of blessing for his children. Yet the passage ends with a penetrating question: who can truly say they have cleansed their own heart or stand free from sin? In today's Morning Manna, Rick Wiles and Doc Burkhart explore how integrity shapes generations, why moral self-confidence is misplaced, and how these verses quietly point beyond human virtue to the need for God's cleansing grace.

In this powerful teaching from the Fellowship of Kingdom Professionals podcast, Michael Blue continues to unpack The Wisdom Prayer, the prayer Solomon prayed that launched him into unparalleled leadership, influence, and destiny. Drawing from Proverbs 4 and 1 Kings 3, this episode explores why wisdom is the principal thing, how love and offering invite God's presence, and why prayer is God's system for partnership on earth. Michael Blue explains prayer as a requisitioning system—a divine process by which believers ask, invite, and involve God in earthly affairs. Through the story of Solomon, listeners will learn how asking God for wisdom aligns with purpose, prepares leaders for transitions, and equips kingdom professionals with skills for every realm of life—from leadership and administration to commerce and culture. Whether you are at a turning point in your career, ministry, or personal journey, this episode will challenge you to pray with clarity, confidence, and kingdom alignment. New podcast episodes are available every Monday wherever you listen to podcasts.

Send us a textMost of us have probably heard Carrie Underwood's #1 hit, "Jesus Take the Wheel," but as catchy as the song is, it elicits a question - Do we need to tell Jesus to take the wheel or is He already firmly planted in the driver's seat of our life whether we invite Him to be there or not? ? Is God in control of the lives of everyone and everything? And if He is, does that make us just robots? In this episode and the next, we do a deep dive into a foundational Truth that causes some to go apoplectic - God's Sovereignty. There is some mystery to how it all works, but it is extremely important to understand what the Bible teaches, and what it doesn't because when we try to make our understanding of God fit into our finite minds, it usually leaves us with a God of our own making, and ultimately leads to a life lived on shaky ground, instead of a firm foundation.
