This week, Dudley and David Holland unpack one of the most debated questions in modern theology: Should Christians support Israel because of the Abrahamic covenant? They examine what scripture says—starting in Genesis 12 and landing in Galatians and Romans—about the unfolding plan of God through Israel, the church, and the fulfillment found in Christ.Together, they explore replacement theology, covenant theology vs dispensationalism, and reflect on Tucker Carlson's conversation with Ted Cruz regarding Israel's role today. You'll hear a Jesus-centered perspective on scripture that moves beyond politics and into the heart of the gospel.Key topics include: What is Israel's role in God's plan?

Welcome to The Weekly Word! In this timely message, we are stepping into PROMOTION TIME—August 1–15 on the Gregorian calendar, aligned with the powerful spiritual season in the Hebrew month of Av.We are currently in the prophetic window called "Between the Straits"—from July 13 (17th of Tammuz) to August 3 (9th of Av). This season recalls both historic tragedy and a call to next-level faith.What You'll Learn in This Word:Why the Hebrew month of Av (Menachem Av) means “God our Comforter”—a season of divine comfort and accelerationThe golden calf incident (Exodus 32) and how fear and impatience cause us to forget our identityHow the 10 spies missed God's promise (Numbers 13–14) because they saw themselves as grasshoppers instead of conquerorsWhy your promotion requires you to see through eyes of faith, not fearHow God has written your destiny for this year—and this is the time to step into it!Prophetic Reflection:The Israelites came out of Egypt with silver and gold, but they carried a slave mindset. Surrounded by false gods in Egypt, they struggled to fully trust the one true God—even after miracles, signs, and wonders. When waiting at Mount Sinai, they questioned their identity and God's goodness.But God is saying: STOP. PAUSE. STEP IN.You're coming into August. You're entering Menachem Av—“I am the Lord your Comforter.” God wants to comfort you from affliction and raise your faith to receive your promotion.Romans 1:17 reminds us that "the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith." In the Greek, the word for faith—pistis—means:Moral convictionReliance on ChristAssurance in God's goodnessSo ask yourself:
Do you believe He's merciful, just, loving, and good?
Do you believe He has good plans for you?
Because God is calling you into the Promised Land, and your faith will determine how far you go.Key Dates to Remember:July 13 – 17th of Tammuz (Start of "Between the Straits")July 25 (at sundown) – Start of the month of AvAugust 1–15 – Promotion TimeAugust 3 – 9th of Av (Tisha B'Av, a day of mourning and reflection)Don't miss this prophetic word—it's your moment to break cycles, rise in faith, and walk into your God-appointed destiny.LIKE • COMMENT • SUBSCRIBE for more weekly prophetic insights!Sign up for the free “ASCEND Class” at 10 am and 6 pm EST – Tuesday August 12

This week, Dudley, Samuel and Corinne return to a powerful and timely conversation on women in spiritual authority and the structure of biblical elders in the modern church. They dive deep into the tensions between Scripture and culture, tackling hard questions around Christian patriarchy, toxic church culture, and spiritual abuse.What does Paul really say about gender roles? Can a church be safe, healthy, and effective if women are excluded from leadership? And how should we respond when leadership roles are misused or weaponized?This episode is honest, vulnerable, and rooted in a desire to interpret Scripture faithfully, while also addressing the real wounds many have experienced in the church.Get Dudley's Weekly Word delivered right to your inbox every Friday!

Welcome to the Weekly Word! This week, we're diving deep into the powerful and timely message of waiting on God and reflecting on His divine timing. As we enter the month of Tammuz, we find ourselves in a season of reflection, repentance, and spiritual growth. In this month, God is calling us to pause, reflect, and affirm our identity in Him.As we look back to Exodus 32, we remember the Israelites' impatience as they waited for Moses to return. Their impatience led them to build a golden calf, relying on their own understanding instead of trusting God's timing. This is a month to resist the urge to move ahead without God's direction, as we strengthen our relationship with Him.Exodus 32:1-4 (NKJV), “Now when the people saw that Moses delayed coming down from the mountain, the people gathered together to Aaron, and said to him, “Come, make us [a]gods that shall go before us; for as for this Moses, the man who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we do not know what has become of him.” And Aaron said to them, “Break off the golden earrings which are in the ears of your wives, your sons, and your daughters, and bring them to me.” So all the people broke off the golden earrings which were in their ears, and brought them to Aaron. And he received the gold from their hand, and he fashioned it with an engraving tool, and made a molded calThen they said, “This is your god, O Israel, that brought you out of the land of Egypt!”While things may feel slow right now, it's a time of spiritual rest and reflection as God prepares us for what's ahead. August brings promotion and new beginnings, but for now, we must take a pause, reflect on our identity in Christ, and be patient as we wait for God's next steps.This is a powerful message for anyone who feels frustrated by the waiting season. Trust that God is working behind the scenes, and the best is yet to come. Don't build anything without His guidance—wait for His strategy, and He will lead you into your next season of blessing and breakthrough.#July12025TammuzResources & Action Steps:Sign up for the free “ASCEND Class” at 10 am and 6 pm EST – July 17 http://bit.ly/4gfRKXmGet your copy of “365 Prophetic Revelations from the Hebrew Calendar”Www.candicesmithyman.comhttps://amzn.to/4aQYoR0Enroll in Soul Transformation and Dream Mentors 101 to become a ministry affiliateWww.dreammentors.org

This week, Dudley reflects on the spirit-filled foundation of the early church and what it means to be living in the end of the age with passion, purpose, and kingdom identity.

You'll discover why comfortable Christianity is no match for the adventure of true discipleship and how the spiritual gifts in the church empower us to live boldly in this generation.Get Dudley's Weekly Word delivered right to your inbox every Friday!

Welcome to the Weekly Word! In this powerful message, we dive into the theme of "Big Ask, Big Miracles." It's time to stop limiting our view of God and start seeing Him as the all-powerful, prosperous Creator He is. As we are seated with Christ in heavenly places, we have been called, anointed, and appointed as His royal priesthood.In this video, Dr. Candice highlights the significance of the Hebrew calendar, particularly the month of Sivan, and its connection to the books of Exodus and Acts. Just like Peter and John, who experienced a miraculous healing at the gate of Beautiful, we too are invited to ask big in the name of Jesus and step into a life of signs, wonders, and miracles. She also shares a bit on the 4th month of the religious calendar which is Tammuz, which begins this week also.This is a week to exercise your identity in Christ and walk boldly into the new eternal order of Melchizedek.

Is the Rapture really what we think it is? In this episode, Sam sits down with Dudley to unpack common misconceptions about the End Times, Dispensationalism, and what the Bible actually says.For many, the Left Behind series and popular teachings have shaped their views on a secret rapture, tribulation, and eternal separation from God. But do these ideas align with Scripture? Will some believers be taken while others are left behind, or is there a deeper biblical narrative we're missing?During this deep dive into biblical prophecy and eschatology Dudley breaks down the truth about Jesus' return, the final judgment, and what it means to be in Christ when He comes back.Get Dudley's Weekly Word delivered right to your inbox every Friday!

This week, Dudley brings us his Monthly Message - “What In The Church Is Going On? Part 2”. Something seems off in today's church.

This week, we're throwing it back to EPIC Conference 2020 and revisiting a message by our friend, Tullian Tchividjian titled “I Once Was Found, But Now I'm Lost.” In this powerful sermon, Tullian explores the depths of Christian identity crisis and the transformational journey of spiritual growth. Using the parable of the lost sheep, he highlights God's pursuit of sinners—illustrating how God relentlessly seeks and rescues us, even when we feel lost or broken. The message emphasizes that true Grace and redemption are found not in our own efforts, but in God's unwavering love and forgiveness. Through personal reflections and scriptural insight, Tullian challenges us to reassess our identities, encouraging us to root our worth in Christ rather than in our roles or achievements. This sermon is a powerful reminder that no matter how lost we feel, God will always come after us, bringing healing and hope. Get Dudley's Weekly Word delivered right to your inbox every Friday!
