Over the next few episodes, we'll dive deep into what sonship really means, how to walk in it daily, and how to recognize when you're slipping back into orphan or slave thinking.About This Episode: Most Christians know the phrase "identity in Christ," but few actually walk in it.

Using the parable of the prodigal son in Luke 15, we reveal how these hidden operating systems drive your decisions, sabotage your blessings, and keep you from living in the freedom Christ died to give you.You'll discover: ✓ Why behavior modification never works without identity transformation ✓ The signs you're living with an orphan or slave mindset ✓ How these false identities make you forfeit your God-given inheritance ✓ What it truly means to be a son or daughter of God ✓ How to break free from religious performance and strivingThis isn't about trying harder—it's about believing who God says you are.Turn this episode into real change: The Kingdom Shift newsletter gives you one specific way to apply this week's Kingdom truth.

Send us a textOn his ordination day at Legacy Church, Matthew Weyers from Cape Town, South Africa, shares his journey of discovering God as Dad rather than a distant deity. He describes how he moved from religious striving to experiencing the freedom of Sonship. Matthew emphasizes three key points: knowing God as Dad, understanding our divine origin before creation, and living in present-day union with the Trinity. Apostle Tommy Miller, senior pastor at Legacy, introduces Matthew, explains ordination, and closes the message with communion and an explanation of what it is.More from Matthew:https://youtube.com/@matthewweyerseternalunion?si=YNZDgkqM6dMt92ov#asheis #asheissoareweinthisworld #unveiled #conscience #sons #manifestsons #union #legacychurchoh #newcreation #jesus #church #jesuschrist #gospel #transfigured #revelator #apostle #deathless #immortality #believe #bible #creator #godisgood #grace #hope #sermonshots #sermonclips #holyspirit #love #godislove #kingdom #peace #freedom #facebook #memes #truth #inspiration #motivationalquotes #vibes #positivevibes #christ #jesuslovesyou #russellbrand #jordanbpeterson #joerogan #atm #tommymiller #heirs #capetown #communion Get more life-changing content and community here:https://linktr.ee/tommymiller Support the show

Paul reminds us that we are no longer bound by the law, but adopted as sons and daughters of God. In Christ, we move from slavery to sonship, from duty to delight, and from emptiness to inheritance.

Sunday teaching from Banbury Community Church

A deep dive into his upbringing in Los Angeles where he and his brother sought out and became part of the burgeoning experimental music scene learning from their elders which included Bobby Bradford, Julius Hemphill, Horace Tapscott, Sonship and Vinnie Golia.We explored the daunting landscape of modern-day touring, the people along the way who helped elevate his own original music and his concept of success in this life.

In The Secret of Sonship, Stephan Botha reveals the hidden keys to walking in true power, authority, and maturity as a child of God. Through biblical examples from Abraham, Elijah, Paul, and Timothy, this message unpacks how submission, servanthood, and dying to self unlock the flow of anointing and inheritance. With bold truth, prophetic insight, and practical wisdom, Stephan challenges believers to move from being mere Christians to true sons who carry mantles, authority, and revival power.

In love he predestined us for adoption to himself as sons through Jesus Christ, according to the purpose of his will, to the praise of his glorious grace, with which he has blessed us in the Beloved. I. God the Father's loving predestination of his people. II. God the Father's loving adoption of his people. III. God the Father's loving grace to his people. 

The King's Kindness Transforms Shame into Sonship

Sonship is the foundation of prayer, not mere religious obligation. Our sonship is based purely on expressing faith in Jesus and what He did for us. It gives us the assurance that God not only hears but also answers, giving us unshakable peace and joy that transcends life's circumstances.

Those that respond to the call of God are led by His spirit and are born again as His adopted sons and daughters. All power is given to His children in a manner that is orderly and under control. If you are willing to be guided, the Lord will pick you up and help you on your way.  VF-2099 Romans 8:14 Watch, Listen and Learn 24x7 at PastorMelissaScott.com Pastor Melissa Scott teaches from Faith Center in Glendale.

#42 – Series: Making The Kingdom Shift – pt.3Are you caught in a Christian trap that's wasting your life without you knowing it?The Parable of the Prodigal Son reveals more than one lost son. Most people know about the younger brother, but have missed the deeper mindsets this parable exposes—and how both are alive in the church today.In this episode, we reveal the shocking truth: both worldliness and religion rob believers of their Kingdom purpose. The younger son fell into reckless living, the older son into performance-based religion. They look completely different, but both lead to the same dead end.We unpack how these counterfeit mindsets show up in modern church life—from platform building and approval addiction to legalism and joyless performance. These aren't obvious sins; they masquerade as holiness while keeping you in spiritual bondage.But there's a third way: true Kingdom freedom that is neither law nor license, but Spirit-filled sonship that restores your identity and frees you to live with purpose.⚠️ This episode may make you uncomfortable, but it could also set you free.Turn this episode into real change: The Kingdom Shift newsletter gives you one specific way to apply this week's Kingdom truth.

In this final episode of the Sonship series, Nancy unpacks what it means to be conformed to the image of the Firstborn. Sonship is not about platforms or applause—it is about surrender, obedience, and Christlikeness formed by the cross.

In this episode, Nancy unpacks the vital difference between being an heir and being a steward. Every son is an heir, but not every heir matures into stewardship. True sons take responsibility, carrying the weight of the Father's house not with flash or recognition, but with everyday faithfulness. Stewardship often looks ordinary—showing up, obeying when it's inconvenient, serving without applause, and enduring without self-pity. This is where sons are proven, and where God entrusts more. Discover why stewardship is not about earning promotion, but stepping into what the Father has already written for your life. Learn how hidden faithfulness shapes you into a trustworthy son, able to carry His authority and responsibility. Sonship is not just a privilege—it's a calling to steward what is in your hand until the Father releases more. Thanks for Listening!

The elder sister of the house, Megan Hansen, releases on Numbers 3:14-4:16!

Through the lens of the prodigal son story, Pastor Kenneth reveals how both the wayward and the dutiful brothers missed the same truth: God's love isn't earned by behavior, but freely given because we're His children. Drawing from personal stories and Scripture, his message invites us to experience the transformative difference between having the status of sonship and living in the spirit of it.

Pastor shares about Sonship today.

In this episode, we explore the true source of spiritual authority. Authority is not loud, flashy, or self-promoting—it is quiet strength born of union with the Father. Jesus showed us the pattern: He didn't prove Himself in the wilderness; He proved that the Father was enough. Real authority flows from alignment, endurance, and yielded obedience. Learn why hell trembles when sons choose to walk in this kind of authority. Thanks for Listening!

In this episode, we uncover one of the deepest truths of sonship: resurrection life only flows out of death. Paul spoke of a “debt of love” owed to others, and part of that love is telling the truth—that sonship cannot mature without the cross. Jesus, the Pattern Son, showed us that true authority is not about grasping power but about laying down our will and declaring, “Not my will, but Yours be done.” Independence may masquerade as freedom, but in reality it is bondage. Sons are formed when self is crucified, when the tears of surrender become the “yes” that only the Spirit can birth within us. What dies at Gethsemane rises in power, and through that death-to-self, Christ's life is revealed in us. Thanks for Listening!

In Chapter 23 of Ultimate Intention, Nancy explores the glory of sonship and the Father's intention to unveil His many sons before the universe. Drawing from Eastern customs of adoption, she explains how children were raised under tutors until the day of adoption, when they were formally recognized as sons with full rights and responsibilities. Through the ministry of the Holy Spirit, believers move from being children of God to mature sons who embody the Father's spirit, mind, and purpose. Adoption is not about changing families but about reaching maturity, responsibility, and authority as God's heirs. Creation itself longs for this unveiling, waiting for the manifestation of the sons of God. Nancy emphasizes that the glory of sonship is not in personal attainment but in the Father sharing His authority with His sons corporately. Sonship is about living unto His glory, being body-conscious, and reaching maturity together as one new man in Christ. Here we go! Thanks for Listening!

This episode explores what it truly means to “walk in a manner worthy of the calling” as a son of God. A son's walk is not hurried, desperate, or performance-driven—it flows from settled identity and abiding oneness with the Father. We'll contrast the exhausting, insecure walk of orphans and the prideful independence of those who resist discipline with the peaceful, Spirit-led walk of a true son. Discover how slowing your steps, receiving the Father's love, and living from His life within you will free you from striving and empower you to carry the fragrance of Christ wherever you go.

Salvation, the Holy Spirit's Work, Security, and Assurance are the main themes running through Romans 8. Here in the middle of the chapter we discover the implications of being adopted into sonship, and a new bittersweet theme joins the chorus that will take us through the rest of the chapter. 1 - Because Slavery and Fear are Behind You (15a) 2 - Because You Are Adopted (15b) 3 - Because You Are God's Children (16) 4 - Because You Are Fellow Heirs With Christ (17a) 5 - What's Included In Your Inheritance? (17b)

This episode unpacks the deep, Spirit-born cry that marks true sonship—“Abba, Father.” Unlike performance, religious language, or learned behavior, this cry is awakened by the Spirit within us and confirms that we truly belong to the Father. It's not a whisper, but a raw, unfiltered expression of love and dependence that breaks through pride and fear. Discover why this cry cannot be manufactured, how it shifts the way we live, and how it transforms our walk with God from duty to intimacy. Thanks for Listening!

Preparing His Bride | Aug 16, 2025 You cannot successfully live God's life without first understanding that you must function as both a son and a priest. This is not optional—it is the fundamental requirement for accessing divine life. Any attempt to live spiritually without establishing this dual identity will ultimately prove disastrous, regardless of how sincere your efforts may appear. Your journey toward the Father is not merely about showing up in His presence, but about genuine transformation—a process of becoming and manifesting His nature. This requires understanding that you are engaged in spiritual warfare between two kingdoms, each offering you their own form of intoxication. When scripture speaks of the "virtuous woman" whose price is far above rubies, it is describing your purified soul—that part of you which has been made worthy through the blood of Christ. This is the bride that Christ is preparing for Himself. Conversely, the "strange woman" represents this present age, the Babylonian system that constantly seeks to seduce you away from spiritual life through worldly attractions and temporal pleasures. You must recognize that your soul is constantly engaged in spiritual trading. Every decision you make, every desire you entertain, every priority you establish constitutes a transaction with either the kingdom of light or the kingdom of darkness. The strange woman—this world system—offers immediate gratification but ultimately leads to spiritual death. Those who give themselves to her ways lose their ability to lay hold on eternal life. Scripture warns you not to give your strength to women—meaning you must not invest your spiritual energy, time, and focus in the things of this age. As one called to be a king and priest, you cannot afford to be intoxicated by the wine of this world. There are two forms of wine available to you: the intoxicating spirit of this present age that makes you forget God's law, and the wine of the Holy Spirit that fills you with divine life and power. You cannot serve two masters. One hand cannot be extended toward God while the other grasps after mammon. This requires the painful but necessary process of cutting off whatever causes you to sin—not literally, but through the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God. The solution to spiritual bondage is not physical castration but spiritual consecration through the power of God's Word. Understanding the principle of "laying hold" is crucial for your spiritual development. Just as a device must establish proper credentials to connect to a network, your soul must maintain clean hands and a pure heart to access divine fellowship. When you compromise with this world system, you lose your ability to maintain strong spiritual connection. The encounter may begin, but worldliness creates interference that weakens your grip on eternal realities. Those who seek the face of the Lord engage in a process of spiritual DNA exchange—a deep transformation that occurs through intimate fellowship with Him. This is why maintaining purity is essential; you cannot kiss the face of the world and expect to maintain pure communion with God. Your identity as a king and priest demands higher standards than ordinary religious living. God has prepared strong drink for you—the wine of the Holy Spirit that enables you to forget your former poverty and remember your misery no more. This divine intoxication empowers you to function in your royal and priestly calling. The pathway to this abundant life requires genuine repentance that produces corresponding fruit. You cannot simply acknowledge truth intellectually; you must demonstrate your faith through concrete actions that prove your heart has genuinely changed. When you truly repent and consecrate yourself to higher standards, you discover that the life God offers is far more satisfying than anything this world can provide. Set new standards of consecration for yourself. Make specific commitments regarding prayer, worship, and spiritual discipline. Find others who can hold you accountable for these commitments. Remember that faith without corresponding works is dead—your spiritual decisions must be accompanied by practical steps that demonstrate your commitment to divine life over worldly pleasure. The goal is not merely to avoid hell or secure your eternal destiny, but to lay hold on the abundant life that belongs to you as a child of God. This life is available now, but it requires you to choose consistently between the wine of this age and the wine of the kingdom.

In this episode, we explore the scandal and beauty of true sonship in Christ. Sonship isn't about titles, platforms, or proving your worth—it's about living from your Spirit-born identity as a son of God, fully loved and completely secure. We'll confront the lies that keep us striving like orphans, discover the freedom of the Spirit's cry of “Abba, Father” within us, and learn to walk as Jesus walked—in yieldedness, alignment, and joy. You're not trying to become a son. You are one. Now live it. Thanks for Listening!

Prayer Judgment and Revival (2) (audio) David Eells – 8/6/25 Going over What the Lord Showed Me About the Asteroid that's Coming Brandon @ Last Days – 7/26/25 (David's notes in red) https://youtu.be/xUTlHLlBy_g?si=1W7FB9aV5GfR-osX Portion of transcript: Speaking of the revival, the Lord said, “Heaven and Earth are about to collide with the greatest harvest of souls and the greatest demonstration and manifestations of My glory that this world has ever seen before. In a 24-hour period, He said, “Brandon, everything you know, [will change] we're at the point of no return. We're at that point. It's time to push.” It's time to push. (Laboring to bring forth the Man-child body which will bring the revival as it was with Jesus the Man-child. History repeats on a larger scale.) He said, “You're looking at a thin thread.” Remember that hair-thin thread I saw coming up? I said, “Adam's lease is coming up.” Do you understand? We're about to step over the water's edge. We're about to step over the waterfall. (Revival) And the Lord said, “You're about to see something I long for you to see.” Why? Because it was there, the lease; it was Adam's timeframe of a 6,000-year window. Now, we're about to step into the 7,000–year window with the 7-year tribulation. (According to Numeric Bible Chronology we are already in the thousand year sabbath but men are breaking it by their works so tribulation comes.) We're about to see some radical things. Radical and amazing things with the Holy Ghost and fire like we've never seen it before. We've only seen glimpses of it. The Lord said, “You've only seen glimpses of it with Azusa Street, …, with the Welch revival. These only lasted for just a short window. But, Brandon, what I'm about to do, all those others will pale in comparison to what is about to happen in these last days.” (Amen!) But He said, “I have to give you a warning about the plague. I have to tell you to stand and pray and tell the people that I'm coming.” And He talked about Psalm 91. (He will come to us as the Latter Rain to once again heal the plagues of men as Jesus did in the former rain.) Then I saw an asteroid, and He was talking about this telescope called Lucifer. And then He called it Satan.  (I have read that the Vatican's telescope was originally called Lucifer but was changed to Luci in 2012 to avoid controversy.) I thought how this was a very demonic name, and I wondered if I was hearing this right? And is this the Lord or Satan? I saw this telescope in the Arizona West and it is massive. (That is where Luci is.) The lens on it was ginormous. As I was looking at this, I saw men wearing white lab coats, and they were talking and writing things down. They said, “The odds are in our favor.” And “It's unlikely this will happen.” China was involved, and they were communicating back and forth about what they were seeing coming. China said, “This is going to hit. This is serious.” But the people in America were like, “Uh, I don't know, I don't think so.” But China was taking it seriously. They were freaking out. I could see these educated Chinese men calculating and talking back and forth. They knew something serious was about to happen and that we were not going to divert it. As I was looking over into outer space, I saw a massive rock heading toward Earth. They said, “We were not telling them because it would cause panic. But the odds are in our favor that it will not happen that it will miss.” But it will not. I saw other space debris by this major rock. It was a massive piece of rock, like the size of a planet. (No one would survive the largest rock; there would be no tribulation.) And there was a smaller one beside it, and there were ones they would consider to be…. And I heard the word ‘planet killers' were behind it, like bunches of them. As this thing was moving and all the others with it, it looked like a debris field behind it. (Earth can generally survive impacts from asteroids smaller than about 0.6 miles (1 kilometer) in diameter, as these are less likely to cause catastrophic damage. However, an asteroid around 7 to 8 miles (11 to 12 kilometers) wide could potentially wipe out most life on Earth. https://science.howstuffworks.com/nature/natural-disasters/asteroid-hits-earth.htm ) (I have no doubt a rock in the tail will hit. Brandon has been very accurate.) The Lord said, “Watch the sun, watch the tides. For things are going to change, and change quickly. Your water and your waves, the way the tides come in and go out because of the moon. Things are going to start to shift like you've never seen before. The tides are going to act very strangely; they will be higher than average. They will come in further than what they're supposed to. When they pull back out, they will move out further than they are supposed to.” I heard this and I could see it. Something was affecting the tides. This rock, something serious. The Lord said, “Watch the pressure on the Earth for a major volcano is about to erupt, and not just one volcano, but it will be multiple all at the same time.” I saw earthquakes measuring more than 9.0 in more than one place. They happened in multiple places at the same time. (Even a flyby of this monster could do this but I suspect one or more from the tail will hit.) The Lord said, “I told you and I warned you that it would affect the sun's light and the way it shines upon the Earth, for it will create a disruption in the birds' migration. It will cause a difference in the timing of when animals breed because it will confuse their natural instincts. All animals and creation were acting weird. Even the agriculture of the flowering and planning (planting) will be thrown off because of what's coming. I saw the magnetic poles and how the Earth was shifting, and it was moving differently.  Even the daytime will be different, and the way the Earth spins will be different. (A wobble is likely) Some people think it's a flat Earth, but it's not. (Amen)  He said the sun will look different in the days ahead. You will need to hear Him in the days ahead because of what I saw. The Lord said, “Look at Venice, Italy.” I could see the water in the city acting weird; there was flooding and a rise in the tides. There were “water events,” that's what I'll call them. Water events are about to take place in Italy that have never happened before because of what's happening to the Earth. The Lord said, “Watch Venice, Italy, and watch Rome. Watch the volcano that's about to go off in Europe.” This will be an event that is not just one in the ring of fire, but this will be a global event that starts taking place. Then I saw India and the Lord said, “Look at India, for a lot of the pagan temples will be destroyed with earthquakes in the days ahead.” I saw the glory of God coming in, and there were many in the harvest. I'm talking major revival throughout India. I saw monkeys on the temples and old shrines completely decimated by earthquakes. It was like when the walls of Jericho came down. Everything was flattened; there was nothing left, it was like rubble. The Lord said, “I will bring in My presence, and I'm going to decimate those false gods and false places of worship. There will be a great revival throughout India and all throughout Asia. I saw great Buddhist temples completely decimated when this takes place. They were shaken to the ground like piles of rubble. A major distraction is about to take place. So I asked the Lord more about this. I asked Him, “Is this about the two flying saucers? Is it the two alien ships?” This is a deception that's about to take place and it's false. It's demonic spirits. There is no such thing as aliens. (Absolutely True) There will be things in the sky that are going to scare many people in the days ahead, thinking, “This is E.T.; they really exist!” No. These are fallen angels; it's demonic. This will be how they will explain away the rapture of the church. People say, ‘I don't believe in the rapture,' but it's going to happen. (See our book: Hidden Manna- It clearly comes at the end of the Trib.)  I'm telling you by the Spirit of God, you need to get your houses ready. If you're not on fire for Jesus and your heart is not serving Jesus, today is the day. You need to get right with the Lord. People ask me when this will happen. I don't know how long before this happens; I'm just here to warn you about what's coming. So, I saw these major alien ships, and I saw it go over the Vatican and go over the Mayan temples down in Mexico. And I asked the Lord, “Are there two of these?” I have been praying about this, and He said, “No, it's just one.” This is going to make everyone freak out because they will see it moving across the ocean and think it's more than one. It will be seen on TV. Then I saw little tiny ships coming out of the mother ship that looked like balls of light. But it wasn't a real ship. Understand. This was a demonic-looking light that was traveling around, causing much confusion in our skies. I know this sounds “way out there.” I didn't even want to talk about it, but I'm instructed to. I'm here to warn you. As wild as it may sound, there will be fearful sights you will see that will bring you to your knees. I'm here to warn you of these things. The enemy does not play fair; he's trying to deceive people with what's coming and throwing many curveballs to try and deceive the nations. When the antichrist comes (See Hidden Manna) on the scene and he says, “Hey, we have a solution for all the problems in the days ahead.” “I'm going to bring peace and prosperity. All you have to do is bow down and worship me on Fridays…” “And you're going to have to get a chip. But it's going to be a solution because we're going to take care of all of this with AI. AI has the cure for diseases. We're going to fix diabetes, we'll fix cancer, and we'll fix autism. We're going to do all this through AI technology. If you just serve me on Fridays and do all that I tell you to do, we're going to fix all your ailments.” You watch! This is how they get everybody with hook, line and sinker. People will think that he's such a nice guy! (antichrist) They'll say, “Don't you know he has a plan to help everybody?” It's coming. But I won't be here to see it. I won't be here, and none of you will be here to see it. Those of us who are believers and have our lamps full of oil. (See Hidden Manna- Absolute proof we will all be here.) I heard the Lord say, “Pray. They're going to try to get another major virus in the days ahead.” I saw another major virus and the Lord said, “Rise up and pray, church! Pray that the glorious church rises.” People will be looking at us and asking us, “Do you have a solution for this new virus?” And we don't need to be handling this like we did COVID. You can either be hiding in your church or your houses because you're afraid of this thing, or we can be the glorious church and rise up and pray and take our authority over things. (Amen! Brandon – Exo. 15:26- “I will put none of the diseases upon thee”.) Last time in 2019, people were caught off guard. I heard about it six months in advance, about how there was going to be a major virus, but I didn't have a platform to warn people like I do now. (I told people 3 years in advance.) The Lord told me, “I'm giving you a window, Brandon, pray and tell them that they're going to try to do it again. But this time it will be COVID on steroids and it will be a whole different strand.” I'm trying to warn you that they have a plan for the future, and it's not that far off. (We can pray most of this down.) This will not just affect humans; I saw that it will also affect cattle and your pets. I saw dogs, cattle, birds, everything, lying dead everywhere. It was spreading to livestock everywhere like a plague. It was like the black plague of death. (in Europe 1346-1353) It was awful. But the glorious church! Remember, they had light in Goshen while it was dark in Egypt. I'm telling you that in the household of faith, if you rise up, if you pray and you read your Bible to know the Word of God, it will be like He said, “A thousand shall fall at your side and 10,000 at your right hand, but it will not come nigh you.” (True, if you believe) I asked the Lord, “What things can we stop?” He said, “Terrorist attacks; you can stop plots against the churches, but Brandon, you cannot stop Matthew 24.” He said, “You can be at the right place at the right time, and it won't affect you because you're My beloved. Be where I tell you to be and do what I tell you to do. Hear Me and be in sync with Me at all times and know that nothing will come nigh you.” (True) The Lord said, “Listen to Me, Matthew 24 will take place.” Which says, there will be wars and rumors of wars, plagues, pestilence and earthquakes in diverse places, massive storms, all these things and seas and waves roaring, men's hearts failing them for fear when they see all these things coming upon the Earth. We're going to see things we've never seen before, because the Bible says so. But there are certain things we can pray about and stop, and things we cannot stop. (We can almost always lessen the effect of them.) I'm telling you the things we cannot stop are going to happen, but they don't have to affect you. We're here in this world, but we're not of this world, right? We're underneath the shadow of the Almighty, under His wings, and Him shall we trust! And I know He's watching over me. His goodness and mercy are following me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever. But it doesn't say I won't go through the valley of the shadow of death, but I will fear no evil. His rod and staff comfort me. He prepares a table before me in the presence of all my enemies. He told me He would take care of me, and I believe Him with all my heart that He will. And that's the place where I want to see all of you too. Regardless of what we see coming, and the birth pangs. He said, “As the labor pains that are coming upon a woman, Brandon, it's going to get really radical now.” And He said that as we go from Rosh Hashanah and even more from September (I think it's like the 21st)), when we hit this time frame, an acceleration of things is going to happen even on a greater level. But I'm giving you a window of financial outpouring. Believer for it. Pray for Judge Torres and these judges to let go of the things and crypto. That these corrupt people will set boundaries and laws and establish it and that it will all be a blessing for the body of Christ. People need to be listening. It won't all come through certain investments that you think it will come through. Don't limit God in your natural minds. Think bigger! The Lord said, “You're not thinking big enough.” He told me, “Brandon, I have a million and one ways to get you a million dollars. Do you understand Me?” “I am the God of more than enough. I'll provide for your ministry. I'll do whatever you need if you just ask Me in faith. Do you understand? My hand is not short.” Do you understand? He's an exceedingly abundantly above all that you ask or think to ask, God! And from what I've seen coming, you better get your house in order and your heart right before the Lord. You cannot be playing church anymore. If you thought COVID was bad, you haven't seen anything like what I've seen. For most people, it will steamroll them because their hearts are not ready, and they're not right with the Lord. It's not time to play church anymore. You're either hot or cold, but if you're lukewarm, He will spew you out of His mouth. You may say, “Where's the grace in all this?” I believe His grace is sufficient for every single one of you, but you need to be on the side where the devourer is rebuked, and He said He rebuked the devourer for your sake. You say, “Well, I'm a tither and I have tither's rights.” You either believe what the Word of God says for His promises (Psalm 91) or you are a doubter. A true believer believes that God will do what He says He will do. The Lord told me that there's too much static in the air. There are too many false prophetic words going forth. They're listening to a familiar spirit and they're speaking to itching ears, and they are not warning you what I'm trying to tell you. And He said that you either speak for Me or sit down and be quiet. Because I'm telling you, I saw judgments. The Lord said, “Judgement begins in My house first and many people don't like that.” But He said, “I'm cleaning house, Brandon, and I'm really about to clean house!” There will be righteous people rise up who have never had a platform before, similar to mine. They will rise up and say exactly what He says to speak. You're going to see signs and wonders that follow those who believe. (The “greater works” ministry.) He said, the true demonstrations of the manifested presence of the sons of God. When you're moving and doing what He told us to do, you will see the signs and wonders. I believe it with all my heart. We're about to see things like we've never seen before. But it's time to be like it was for Jeremiah and all those other prophets of old, when they spoke for God; you'll see things. You're going to start to see the manifestations of what they're saying. You are going to see healings and demonstrations in the glory. There is too much confusion and too many people parroting things. The Lord said, “I'm dealing with this.” He told me, “Your job is to tell what you see and what I'm telling you in prayer, and you relay what I'm saying.” I don't consider myself a prophet, and I've said this before. The Lord said, “I want you to pray and intercede for the revival and lead My people to Jesus. That's your main priority right now.” And He said, “True prophetic voices will be leading people to Jesus.” They'll have altar calls and tell people they're going to hell if they don't repent. They're telling people that Jesus is coming, like John the Baptist in the wilderness eating locust and honey and telling everybody, “There's One coming. Jesus is coming.” But they missed the way Jesus was coming, and history repeats. He came in a body of the Son of David, and the apostates missed him. Here, Hidden Manna could show us how He is coming in the firstfruits sons of David and then His elect, before coming for us. Just as in Jesus' day, the creation of God was waiting for a Son to come with the Word of deliverance from the curse of corruption, so it is in our day. (Rom.8:19) For the earnest expectation of the creation waiteth for the revealing of the sons of God. (21) that the creation itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the liberty of the glory of the children of God. In Jesus' day, spiritual “children” had led His creation into bondage to corrupt religion and sin, but God sent His “Son” to deliver them with the unleavened bread. So it will be in our day. The foundations have been destroyed by many generations of children put in positions of leadership by those who have wanted their ears tickled. In times of apostasy God gives them what they want. (Isa.3:4) And I will give children to be their princes, and babes shall rule over them. (5) And the people shall be oppressed, every one by another, and every one by his neighbor: the child shall behave himself proudly against the old man (mature), and the base against the honorable. (12) As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people, they that lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths. God's solution will be to reveal His sons, whom He will use to restore a repentant remnant with the truth that sets free. In His first body, Jesus offered this deliverance to “the lost sheep of the house of Israel” (Mat.10:6) before there was a great falling away, but in the corporate Man-child Jesus will offer it to the called of the “whole creation” to restore the elect. (Rom.8:22) For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now. The work of the Spirit is to bring us to adoption: spirit, soul, and ultimately body. Jesus was the Son of God abiding in the Son of Man. He was the Son in Spirit and Soul when He still inhabited a body of the seed of David (Rom.1:3). His ability to fully walk in the Kingdom came when He received His redeemed, glorified body. So shall it be with the Man-child manifested “sons.” They will first manifest Sonship in spirit and then progressively in soul through persecution and suffering, as it was with Jesus. (Heb.5:8) Though he was a Son, yet learned obedience by the things which he suffered; (9) and having been made perfect, he became unto all them that obey him the author of eternal salvation. Through this stage, the Man-child sons will minister in power to the called of God, as it was with our pattern, Jesus. In Romans we see the last step of full adoption through the new body. (Rom.8:23) And not only so, but ourselves also, who have the first-fruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for [our] adoption, [to wit], the redemption of our body. Our faith, like our Father's faith, “calleth the things that are not, as though they were” (Rom.4:17), so we must claim our Sonship before we see it. (Gal.3:26) For ye are all sons of God, through faith, in Christ Jesus. The manifestation will come to those who walk by faith, beholding the Son in the mirror. (2Co.3:18) Those who claim their Sonship, and the authority and privileges that go with it, because of the redemption wrought in Christ are accounted as sons. We are “justified (Greek: “reckoned or accounted righteous”) by faith in Christ” (2:16). If I believe that “I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I that live, but Christ liveth in me” (20), then I am a son by faith even if I am not yet a son by manifestation. (3:6) Even as Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned unto him for righteousness. (7) Know therefore that they that are of faith, the same are sons of Abraham. Therefore, if we have received the Spirit of Christ and believe that He now lives in us to do His works, we are sons by faith. (4:6) And because ye are sons, God sent forth the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, crying, Abba, Father. (7) So that thou art no longer a bondservant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir through God. Those who live as joint heirs with Christ are walking in the faith of Sonship and will manifest His works by God's power. Jesus said, “He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater [works] than these shall he do; because I go unto the Father” (Joh.14:12). God is carefully bringing His servants/children who walk by faith to manifest Sonship, first the Man-child and then those disciples who follow in His steps. (Pro.29:21) He that delicately bringeth up his servant from a child Shall have him become a son at the last. While the apostates were waiting for the coming Messiah, He was being manifest in their midst as a man-child born to a woman. According to this type, the apostates in our day are waiting for Jesus to come in the sky to save them. They do not understand that He will come first manifested in the Man-child. The “Son” will come to be manifested only in those “children” who “abide in Him.” This is what the manifestation of Sonship is. Those who do not manifest Sonship will be “ashamed” like the man without the wedding garment, when they physically see Jesus. (1Jn.2:28) And now, [my] little children, abide in him; that, if he shall be manifested (in us through Sonship), we may have boldness, and not be ashamed before him at his coming (Greek: parousia, meaning His “physical presence”). Both the ancient manuscripts and the numeric pattern say, “if … He be manifested” (NENT). “If” shows that only the “children” who manifest Jesus or Sonship will not be “ashamed” when He comes. The KJV translated this as “when He shall appear” because they thought this was a reference to Jesus' physical coming, which truly is a “when” and not an “if.” A major problem with this translation is that it has Jesus coming twice at the same time. “When he shall appear, we may have confidence, and not be ashamed before him at his coming (KJV).” However, “manifested” here is the Greek word phaneroo, meaning “to ‘appear' or make visible.” It comes from the root word phan, meaning “to shine.” The same word used in many other places plainly shows us that the glory of Jesus will “shine” out of our “mortal bodies” (Rom.8:11) to “appear” to the world. (2Cor.4:11) For we who live are always delivered unto death for Jesus' sake, that the life also of Jesus may be manifested (Greek: Phaneroo meaning “shining appearance”) in our mortal flesh. Obviously this is a spiritual shining out of us of the righteous glory of God, but sometimes God allows even lost people to see it. Around 1984 I was witnessing to a man who said, “I saw you some years ago and there was a light shining out of you wherever you went and I wondered what it meant.” (6) Seeing it is God, that said, Light shall shine out of darkness, who shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. Notice in the same text that if we know the true “face of Jesus Christ” in the mirror by faith, His glory will shine in us. (3:18) But we all, with unveiled face beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are transformed into the same image from glory to glory…. (Col.3:4) When Christ, [who is] our life, shall be manifested (in us), then shall ye also with him be manifested (“shining appearance”) in glory. Back in our 1 John text, we see that when we are children, He has not yet made His shining appearance in us. (1Jn.3:2) Beloved, now are we children (Greek: teknon) of God, and it is not yet made manifest (“shining appearance”) what we shall be. (If He makes His shining appearance in us, “we shall be like him.”) We know that, if he shall be manifested (“shining appearance,” i.e. in us), we shall be like him; for we shall see him even as he is (in the mirror). The ancient manuscripts, the numeric pattern, and the Received Text all say “if he … be manifested” here. Notice also that those who “see him even as he is” in the mirror by faith “shall be like him.” We must believe that “as he is, even so are we in this world” (1Jn.4:17). The rest of this text confirms this manifestation of Jesus will come in those who have a “confident expectation” of it. (1Jn.3:3) And every one that hath this hope (Greek: “a good, confident expectation”) [set] on him purifieth himself, even as he is pure. Can we purify ourselves “as he is pure”? Those who have a “confident expectation” of this manifestation of Christ in them will receive “grace” to walk in it. (Titus 2:11) For the grace of God hath appeared, bringing salvation to all men, (12) instructing us, to the intent that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly and righteously and godly in this present world; (Only those who are “looking for” the “shining appearance” of Jesus' glory from them will have it.) (13) looking for the blessed hope and appearing (Greek: epiphaneia, a “shining forth”) of the glory of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ; (Notice that this does not speak of the physical coming of the Lord but of the coming of His glory in us. Epiphaneia here speaks of Jesus' coming in us and is distinct from parousia, which speaks of His personal “presence” or coming. In other words, He will come for those from whom He is “shining forth.” He is coming in His saints before He comes for His saints. To this end He sacrificed Himself.) (14) who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a people for his own possession, zealous of good works. The Man-child is made up of those who are the First-fruits company to manifest the glory of this purity. Those who “fight the good fight of the faith” shall have this epiphany of Jesus, either as the Man-child or as the Woman He leads into this understanding. (2Tim.4:7) I have fought the good fight, I have finished the course, I have kept the faith: (8) henceforth there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give to me at that day; and not to me only, but also to all them that have loved his appearing (Greek: epiphaneia). Like Paul, those who have loved His “shining forth” in them shall have the “crown of righteousness.” Jesus was called the first fruits who, as a reformer, imparted Himself into disciples through the Word and anointing of the Holy Spirit. Then they went forth as a corporate body to pass this on to others. Today a corporate body of reformers is about to be revealed to do the same with a much larger portion of the Church. Signs and wonders will cover the earth. Now, here's a portion of a prophetic warning we shared earlier from Brandon Biggs at Last Days: https://youtu.be/9epckXNXLN0 Also, we need to pray over our water supply. (Brandon doesn't share anymore about the water supply in this video. However, I read Bill Gates or his organization plans to buy up water suppliers. Given his depopulation history this cannot be good.) He continues, I saw an article from Fox News saying that Trump and BB have agreed on a two-state solution. This is one of the things from the Abraham Accords and they were saying how they wanted to make a two-state solution, and they were agreeing upon it. I have spoken before that if they do this two-state solution, 3 days later the New Madrid fault line will go off and America will be divided in half. (I have said this for at least 30 years. believe the NM will go off but it will be greatly diminished compared to the dreams and visions because of prayers for God's mercy.) When this happened, I saw great big Chinook helicopters flying from the west to the central part of America carrying supplies. It sounded like the earth was shaking, they had so many helicopters over the affected area. And this is where I said before where I saw the Lion's face carved into the side of a building and I had warned everyone that I saw tumbleweeds going down Wall Street. (In the Long Run we will lose Wall Street) The Lord told me to look at the Lion's face and I saw it was the building that was the New York Stock Exchange. The Lord was warning that if they divide Jerusalem, if they do a two-state solution, He is going to divide America. (I believe it will quake and crack but not with the huge divide) I saw the nation split down the middle and all the bridges going down from West to East, completely destroyed on the Mississippi River. I saw from Texarkana, Texas, to Tulsa, Oklahoma where I saw over 1800 people die. I saw the massive building at ORU (Oral Roberts University) was split down the middle and on fire when this earthquake happens. Houses that were built on cinderblocks were completely leveled and destroyed. Houses built on a foundation did better. I saw thousands of people died when this event takes place. That is why I've always told people we must not divide Jerusalem, for when we do, 3 days after… Now I want you to hear me, that's how strong this Word was. I saw the Liberty Bell ringing and old cast iron bells ringing when this event happens. Three days after Jerusalem is divided and agreed upon, there will be 3 days and God will divide America. We must pray that this does not take place. This announcement has been shared on multiple news channels and including The Jerusalem Post. Pray. (I do not believe it will be stopped, only lessened. I have taught for many years that the Man-child ministry of Jesus will begin when the NM goes off.)

Send us a textThe journey toward awakening isn't about denying our experiences, but seeing through them to the truth they reveal. In this profound episode of Wisdom Dialogues, Hope Johnson shares revelatory insights about how we use our bodies and what they're truly meant for.Hope begins by challenging our fundamental understanding of the body's purpose, explaining that it's meant solely for communication rather than obtaining worldly pleasure or status. This shift in perspective opens the door to examining how sexual desire and longing for special relationships actually substitute for the true union our spirits crave – union with God and the entire Sonship that transcends physical form entirely.Through personal reflections on her experiences since moving to Mexico, Hope reveals how observing patterns of desire in others helped her recognize her own seeking behaviors. She shares how purifying sexual desire led her to discover the masculine and feminine energies within spiritual practice – the masculine providing discipline and direction, the feminine offering receptivity and surrender. Both are essential on the path to awakening.Perhaps most liberating is Hope's exploration of the mind's harmlessness. Contrary to popular belief, our thoughts cannot harm us or create negative physical manifestations. The mind is 100% harmless in reality, only capable of projecting illusions. This understanding frees us from victimhood and self-blame, allowing us to recognize that in every moment we can choose to see differently and release ourselves from suffering.The conversation extends to addiction, judgment, and the power of seeing everything as helpful rather than harmful. Hope compassionately dismantles the belief that we must control our behaviors, showing how removing judgment allows natural transformation without struggle.Ready to experience true freedom? Join Hope in discovering how taking 100% responsibility for your perceptions becomes the path to liberation. Explore this wisdom-packed dialogue that will forever change how you view your mind, body, and spiritual journey.Support the show

Identity, inheritance, relationship, and understanding that you are a child of God, adopted into His family through faith in Christ, should be the lens by which we view our lives. We are co-heirs with Christ, even if that can be difficult to digest at times. How do we get that through our heads?

From the Father's eternal perspective, His purpose has never been shaped by sin or time—it has always been to raise sons who grow in union with Him. Chapter 9 reveals four phases of His divine plan: creaturehood, sonship, heirship, and throneship. Each phase invites us not just to receive life from God but to participate in His purpose. We learn that Adam was not created with divine life, but with the potential for it. God's goal was not merely to restore a lost paradise, but to form mature sons through moral choices, spiritual development, and shared rulership. Sonship is a starting point, not a final destination. Are we merely surviving on experiences? Or are we growing in character and capacity to participate in all God longs to share? His ultimate intention is not just our salvation—it's our growth into Christlike maturity and our place on the throne with Him. Here we go! Thanks for Listening!

Welcome back to part 2 of our series on adoption. St. John Paul II said "adoption is a reflection of God's Love" and in this show Jared and Brittany Normand are back again to share more of their families inspiring image of God's Love. Listen in as the Normand's discuss their journey of adopting their 2 sons and how that experience profoundly impacted their marriage and the lives of their biological children.

Ora et labora. Pray and work. Prayer gives us revelation, but showing up and working—especially when no one's watching—makes the vision real. Success in the kingdom is built on faithfulness and grit. Are you focused on just doing “good” or are you actually building something meaningful? In this message about diligence, Dr. Gabriel Allen Powell teaches us that true success isn't just about behavior, but about a full mindset shift. The kingdom starts within us—with transformation, discipline, and relentless diligence. It's not enough to simply pray—you've got to work, build, and persevere, even when no one's watching. Support the showText encounteratl to 94000 to stay up-to-date on all things Encounter.Worship with EncounterSundays at 9 AM ET | Wednesdays at 7:30 PM ETSupport EncounterText egive to 77977 Connect with EncounterFacebook | Instagram | TikTok | YouTube | WebsiteConnect with Dr. GabeInstagram | YouTube | Website

But when the fullness of the time had come, God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born under the law, to redeem those who were under the law, that we might receive the adoption as sons. Taught at Agape Bible Church in Willits, California on July 13, 2025. [41 minutes]

In this episode of Mere Fidelity, the hosts engage in a deep discussion about covenant theology, exploring its significance in scripture and its role in Reformed theology. They debate the load-bearing nature of covenant language, its historical context, and its relationship to other theological concepts. The conversation highlights the complexity of covenant theology and its evolution over time, emphasizing the importance of understanding scripture through multiple lenses while recognizing the unifying role of covenant in redemptive history.

In Galatians 4, Paul draws a bold line between spiritual slavery and true sonship—and if you've ever felt trapped by religious performance like in Mormonism, this chapter is your invitation to step into the freedom of being fully adopted by God through faith in Christ alone.--The Unveiling Mormonism podcast pulls back the curtain on Mormon history, culture and doctrine.

Paul dismantled the idea that law-keeping could ever make someone right with God.He pointed to Abraham, showing that even he was saved by faith long before the law was given. Paul explained that the law was like a temporary guardian or tutor, showing us our sin but never designed to save us.The big takeaway from Chapter 3: We are made right with God by faith in Jesus Christ—not by religious performance or obedience to commandments.Where Galatians 4 Picks Up:Now, in chapter 4, Paul continues that argument—but he shifts the focus to something deeply relational. He introduces the beautiful truth that believers aren't just forgiven sinners—they're adopted children of God!Paul uses family language—sons, heirs, adoption, Abba Father—to contrast the cold slavery of law-based religion with the warm relationship of grace-based Christianity.This next section will especially hit home for LDS listeners, because Mormonism still keeps people under law, denies full adoption until after lifelong worthiness, and often replaces a personal relationship with God with institutional loyalty and religious performance.Let's dive into Galatians 4: From Slavery to Sonship.Section 1: Galatians 4:1-7 | From Slaves to Sons: Relationship by Faith, Not LawPaul starts with a cultural illustration. In ancient times, heirs had no more rights than slaves until their father declared them full sons.Jewish context: Age 12, "son of the law"Greek context: Coming of age around 18Roman context (likely Paul's audience): The father chose the time for full adoption and inheritanceSpiritual point: Before Christ, people lived like spiritual minors—under guardianship, lacking freedom.Galatians 4:3 says we were slaves to the basic spiritual principles of this world—elemental spiritual forces linked to pagan gods and demonic powers.Modern LDS Parallel:Many LDS today engage in spiritualistic practices: energy healing, chakra work, astrology apps, spirit communication, manifestation, and lightworking. Mormonism's openness to extra-biblical revelation makes this trend possible and widespread.God's Rescue Mission Through Christ (Galatians 4:4-5):Jesus came at God's appointed time to redeem those under the law. Not just freedom from slavery—but full adoption as sons and daughters.Result (Galatians...
