Conrad Rocks | Spiritual Warfare, Supernatural Faith & Kingdom Living

  When You're Standing Over the Bed and You Feel Completely Helpless There is nothing that will humble a parent faster than standing in a dark room at two in the morning while your child screams at something you cannot see. You flip on the light. You check the closet. You tell them it was just a dream. And some nights, that is exactly what it was. But some nights, you know better. You feel it too — that thickness in the room, that cold spot by the bed, that sense that your child isn't screaming at nothing. I know that helplessness personally, from the other side of the bed. When I was a kid, I woke up paralyzed and saw entities in my room. My grandfather — I called him Dedad — did the best he could. He'd come in and pretend to "slay the monsters" for me, swinging at the dark like a knight in a bedtime story. It calmed me down. I loved him for it. But it didn't solve the actual spiritual reality, because none of us knew how to take authority in the Name of J...

  When Prayer Becomes a Pursuit There is something I learned during the seasons when I spent hours walking and talking with God: the closer I drew to Him, the more the supernatural gifts in my life seemed to sharpen. I did not begin those prayer walks with a strategy for increasing words of knowledge. I was not timing my prayers so I could become more impressive in ministry. I loved asking God questions. I wanted His company. Sometimes I would walk for hours, talking, listening, worshipping, and turning things over with Him. Then I would encounter people and know things I could not have known naturally. Words of knowledge came with a clarity and frequency that amazed me. For a while, I almost thought this was normal—and in one sense, it should be. A spiritual relationship with the biblical Jesus ought to produce spiritual fruit. Jesus said, “He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit” (John 15:5 KJV). When a branch remains connected to the vine, life...

  Have you ever looked at your own walk with Jesus and wondered if you’ve finally gone too far? Maybe you made a promise to God in a moment of spiritual high, only to completely fall on your face hours later. You feel the crushing weight of shame, and a whisper starts echoing in your mind: “You’re disqualified. You’re done. A real Christian would never do what you just did.” I’m Conrad from ConradRocks.Net , and today I want to talk about one of the most painful, beautiful, and absolutely essential stories in the entire Bible. It’s the story of a complete spiritual trainwreck. But it’s also the ultimate map of restoration. I’m talking about the Apostle Peter. If you think about it, out of all the people in the Bible, Peter is the last person you would expect to deny Jesus. He was in the inner circle. He saw the Transfiguration. He walked on water. Yet, when the pressure was on, he didn't just stumble—he denied Christ three times, even swearing with curses that he didn't kn...
