Welcome, welcome, welcome to another edition of Coffee with Conrad. This is Conrad from ConradRocks.net. Pull up a chair and let’s get into the deep things of God. Today, I want to talk to you about something that I believe is a "right now" word for the Body of Christ. It’s about those struggles we all face—those habitual, nagging sins that seem to stay with us no matter how much we pray. I’m talking about the beam of iniquity.
Recently, I was in Houston, Texas, attending a corporate worship setting at a home church with some dear friends, Jonathan and Olivia. If you’ve never been to a house church in Houston, let me tell you, it’s a different kind of atmosphere. People there aren't looking at the back of someone's head for thirty minutes before rushing off to Luby's for lunch. They are hungry. They stay until two or three in the morning just seeking the face of God. The hunger in that room was palpable, like a physical weight, but in the best way possible.
As the music began to swell, I felt the corporate prophetic anointing start to move. It’s like what happened with King Saul in the Old Testament. He wasn't a prophet, but when he got around a company of prophets, the Spirit of God came upon him and he began to prophesy. There is something exponential that happens when we assemble. One can chase a thousand, but two can chase ten thousand. I like to think of it like candles in a dark room. One candle gives off a certain amount of light, but when you bring two or three together, the luminosity doesn't just double; it changes the entire clarity of the space.
In that room in Houston, the "spigot" was turned on. We weren't just ankle-deep or knee-deep in the river; we were swimming in the river of God. It was in this high-intensity spiritual environment that the Lord gave me an open vision. Now, when I say an open vision, I mean I could see it with my physical eyes open, superimposed right over the living room furniture and the people worshipping. It was vivid, it was strong, and it carried a message that shook me to my core.
The Vision of the Ceramic Log
In the vision, I saw a fireplace. Inside that fireplace was a massive wooden beam, or a log, and it was sitting right in the middle of a roaring fire. As I watched, I expected the wood to start charring and eventually turn to ash. That’s what fire does, right? But as I observed this beam, it wasn't burning. In fact, the longer it sat in the heat, the more it began to change into something else. It started looking like ceramic or pottery. It was becoming petrified.
It was incredibly frustrating to watch. The fire was hot, the environment was right for destruction, yet this log was just getting harder and harder. It was resisting the very element meant to consume it. I sat there in the middle of worship, watching this "ceramic log" and wondering what on earth I was looking at. Then, the Holy Spirit began to speak.
I realized that this beam represents the "beam of iniquity" that Jesus talked about in the Gospels. We often think of sin as just an outward act, but iniquity is something deeper. It’s the inward bend, the compulsive desire, the thing that remains even after we’ve asked for forgiveness for the act itself.
Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye. (Matthew 7:5 KJV)
Many of us are walking around with these beams in our eyes, and we’ve tried to "lay them on the altar." We’ve said, "Lord, take this from me," but then we just sit there and watch it get harder. The heat of our trials and the fire of our circumstances don't seem to be consuming the problem; they are just making us more rigid, more petrified, and more stuck in our ways.
The Science of Repentance and the Power of Song
As I was wrestling with this vision, I felt a shift in my own spirit. I wasn't singing at that particular moment; I was just observing. But then, I made a conscious decision to just start worshiping. I let the words come out of my mouth. I started singing to the Lord right there in the middle of that prophetic "fire."
The moment I began to sing, the Spirit of God shook me. I heard a phrase ring out in my spirit: "Sing in the fire."
You see, there is a "science of repentance" that we often miss. We think repentance is just a mental "I’m sorry," but true repentance is a gift from God. It’s an unlocking of the heart.
In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth; And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will. (2 Timothy 2:25-26 KJV)
When we have iniquity eating away at us, we are "opposing ourselves." We are double-minded and unstable. We want to be free, but the "ceramic log" of our habit won't burn. The Lord showed me that the key to breaking that ceramic state is worship. When we sing in the fire—when we praise God in the middle of the struggle, the temptation, and the trial—the powers of heaven are shaken.
I remember a time years ago when I was leading worship for a house church in Houston. I was young in my faith, and I had a "beam" I didn't even know was there. I was still listening to heavy metal music, not realizing that it was poisoning the spiritual atmosphere I was trying to cultivate. The people I was with told me, "Conrad, you've got to stop. It's affecting the spiritual flow—the connection between heaven and earth that we're trying to maintain in our worship."
I didn't find a specific "thou shalt not" verse for heavy metal, but I borrowed their faith and decided to burn my CDs. I’ll never forget that day. As those CDs burned, I had a spiritual encounter. I saw what looked like "fowls of the air"—dark, crow-like or bat-like spirits—spinning up out of that fire and leaving my mind. It was a literal deliverance. I felt like I had lost fifty pounds in the spirit. I had "occluded vision" before that, a paradigm boxed in by demonic thoughts I wasn't even aware of. But once that beam was gone, I was free.
Understanding Iniquity: The Internal Bruise
To truly understand why we need to "sing in the fire," we have to understand the difference between sin and iniquity. I’ve written about this in my book, OPEN YOUR EYES: MY SUPERNATURAL JOURNEY, because it’s so vital for our walk with Jesus.
Isaiah gives us a powerful breakdown:
But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. (Isaiah 53:5 KJV)
Transgressions—our sins—are like outward wounds. They are the things we do. But a bruise is something that happens on the inside. A bruise is internal bleeding caused by an outward blow. When we sin, we are "calloused" against the Holy Spirit. If we keep doing it, that outward act creates an internal "bruise" or "iniquity."
Think of it like a gateway. That first compromise, that first step away from the Spirit's leading, creates a pathway. Over time, that pathway becomes a compulsive desire. You might be standing in a church with your hands lifted, truly wanting to love God, yet your flesh is screaming for that cigarette, that drink, or that lustful thought. You’ve developed an iniquity.
When you try to burn that iniquity through sheer willpower (the "fire" of your own effort), it often just turns to ceramic. It gets harder. You become the "hypocrite" with the beam because you’re trying to manage the sin rather than be delivered from the iniquity.
The breakthrough comes when you stop trying to "fix" yourself and start worshipping the One who can. When you sing in the fire, you are acknowledging that God is greater than the furnace.
Personal Reflections: Lessons from the Furnace
Looking back on my own journey, I can see so many times where I "opposed myself." I would grit my teeth like David in the Psalms, trying to keep myself from mine iniquity.
I was also upright before him, and I kept myself from mine iniquity. (Psalm 18:23 KJV)
There is a place for "gritting your teeth," but David also knew the power of the harp. He knew that when the "evil spirit" came upon Saul, the music of worship drove it away. We need to be humble. We need to realize that we can’t even repent without God’s help.
There was another time I was worshipping with a guitar player friend named Michael. We were just in my living room, and what was supposed to be a twenty-minute session turned into hours. We were "singing in the spirit," letting the songs of the Lord flow. Suddenly, the atmosphere changed. It was as if the Lord stepped into the room and asked, "What do you want?"
We asked for deliverance. I was sitting on a plastic cooler, playing my guitar, when something literally picked me up and dropped me back down. I didn't even miss a beat on the guitar, but I knew something had left me. I was delivered from things I hadn't even named yet. That is the power of worshipping in the fire.
We have to stop comparing ourselves among ourselves. It’s easy to see the speck in someone else’s eye when you’ve got a ceramic log in your own. But when you’ve been through the fire and seen your own beam consumed by the grace of God, you gain a heart of compassion. You stop being a judge and start being an ambassador of the Kingdom.
Biblical References: The Precedent for Praise
The Bible is full of examples of people who found their victory not in the absence of the fire, but right in the middle of it.
Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego
These three Hebrew boys are the ultimate example of singing in the fire. They didn't get delivered from the furnace; they were delivered in it. And the most beautiful part is that when they were in the fire, they weren't alone. The Fourth Man was there with them.
He answered and said, Lo, I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire, and they have no hurt; and the form of the fourth is like the Son of God. (Daniel 3:25 KJV)
Their faithfulness in the fire didn't just save them; it saved a nation. Nebuchadnezzar was so shaken by the supernatural encounter that he changed the laws of the entire land to honor the Living God. Your deliverance from iniquity isn't just for you—it’s a testimony that can bring a whole city to Jesus.
Job’s Worship in Loss
When Job lost everything—his children, his wealth, his health—he didn't charge God foolishly. He didn't let his heart turn to ceramic. Instead, he fell down and worshipped.
Then Job arose, and rent his mantle, and shaved his head, and fell down upon the ground, and worshipped, And said, Naked came I out of my mother's womb, and naked shall I return thither: the Lord gave, and the Lord hath taken away; blessed be the name of the Lord. (Job 1:20-21 KJV)
Job went through a long, drawn-out trial, but because he maintained a heart of worship, his latter end was greater than his beginning.
Jehoshaphat’s Ambush of Praise
In 2 Chronicles 20, King Jehoshaphat was facing a massive army. The Lord told him to stand still and see the salvation of God. What did they do? They put the singers out in front!
And when they began to sing and to praise, the Lord set ambushments against the children of Ammon, Moab, and mount Seir, which were come against Judah; and they were smitten. (2 Chronicles 20:22 KJV)
The "ambushment" against your iniquity is set when you begin to sing. The enemy doesn't know how to handle a believer who praises God while the "beam" is still in the fire.
Key Takeaways
Iniquity is an internal "bruise" that results from repeated sin, creating a compulsive gateway for the enemy.
The "Ceramic State" occurs when we try to deal with our issues through willpower or carnal means, making our hearts harder rather than freer.
Corporate Anointing is exponential. Getting around prophetic mentors and a "company of prophets" can trigger breakthroughs you can't get alone.
Worship is the Catalyst. Singing in the fire shakes the powers of heaven and allows God to grant repentance and deliverance.
Your Victory is a Testimony. Like Joseph or the three Hebrew boys, your endurance in the fire is meant to "save much people alive."
Conclusion and Call to Action
If you are struggling today with a "beam" that just won't burn, I want to encourage you to stop fighting it with your own strength. The Lord is calling you to a deeper place of worship. Don't wait for the problem to be gone before you praise Him. Sing in the fire. Let the "Rocks of Revelation" be poured out into your heart as you seek the biblical Jesus.
I’d love to hear your story. Have you ever experienced a breakthrough while worshipping in the middle of a trial? Leave a comment below or reach out to me on social media.
Until we meet again, dig deeper and go higher. God bless you.
Action Items
Identify the Beam: Ask the Holy Spirit to reveal any "occluded vision" or hidden iniquities that you’ve been trying to hide or manage on your own.
Find Your "Company of Prophets": Seek out a prophetic mentor or a group of believers who are hungry for the things of God. Don't stay on the couch; get into the corporate anointing.
Initiate the "Science of Repentance": Spend time in the Word, specifically focusing on the character of Jesus, and ask Him to "grant" you repentance for specific areas of struggle.
Practice "Singing in the Fire": The next time you feel the "compulsion" of an old iniquity or the heat of a trial, stop what you are doing and sing a song of praise to God for at least fifteen minutes.
Purge the Atmosphere: Like I did with my old CDs, look for anything in your physical or digital environment that might be poisoning your spiritual atmosphere and remove it.
Alien Within: Confronting the Battle of Two Natures
Have you ever felt an internal conflict so intense that the will of God seemed foreign—even alien—to your own understanding?
I recently had an open vision during a corporate worship setting that brought a shocking image to mind: a scene from the movie Alien where a creature bursts out of a person’s chest. It seemed secular, gruesome, and completely out of place for a holy moment. But as I prayed it through, the Lord revealed a profound truth about the "seed" of revelation He plants inside us and why our carnal minds often reject it like a foreign invader.
Today on Coffee with Conrad, we are going deeper into this revelation. We are going to explore why the Holy Spirit might feel "alien" to our theology, how we have poisoned our own wells with secular thinking, and how we can clear the waters to match the very heartbeat of God.
The Seed of Revelation and the Open Vision
My passion is for you to develop and maintain a spiritual relationship with the biblical Jesus. That is the thrust of my ministry. Recently, while in a deep time of corporate worship, I experienced what I call an open vision. It’s that state where you are in the Spirit—aware of the heavenly realm—while still having your feet planted on earth, fully aware of your surroundings.
I grabbed my phone and started typing shorthand notes immediately. Now, some people might think I’m just texting or being distracted, but there is a biblical precedent for this. Think of John the Revelator. He was "in the Spirit on the Lord’s day" and was commanded to write down what he saw. He was capturing a heavenly download to bring it to earth.
Write the things which thou hast seen, and the things which are, and the things which shall be hereafter; (Revelation 1:19 KJV)
We are called to bring God's will from heaven to earth. The sower sows the Word, and it comes down like rain. But in that moment of worship, as I was trying to faithfully reproduce the Word of the Lord, I saw that image of someone becoming pregnant with a promise, followed by that flashback from Alien.
Why would God show me that?
When God’s Promise Feels Like an Alien
A lot of us are pregnant with promise. We are carrying the burden of the Lord, just as Jeremiah carried the burden of the word of the Lord to his generation. We have the Holy Spirit inside of us. But here is the problem: Our theological and carnal thinking makes the Spirit of God seem foreign to us.
We have an internal conflict. There is a part of us desperately seeking the will of the Lord, but we try to interpret it on our own terms. We try to fit an infinite, spiritual God into a finite, carnal box.
When the seed of God's Word—which is pure and holy—encounters the "poisoned well" of our carnal minds, it feels like an alien invasion. It clashes with our traditions. It offends our intellect. It disrupts our comfort.
The people in Jeremiah's day rebelled because the word of the Lord didn't match their theology. It took 70 years of captivity for them to realize that what Jeremiah had planted was actually the truth. They rejected it because it felt alien to their rebellious hearts.
Matching the Heartbeat of the Father
In that vision, the Lord brought a childhood memory to my remembrance. I loved my dad very much, and I used to idolize him. When he would put me to sleep, I would lay my head on his chest. I could hear his heartbeat and feel his breath.
I remember thinking that if I wanted to be like my dad, I needed to sync my breathing with his. I needed to match his rhythm.
This is exactly what John the Revelator did with Jesus.
Now there was leaning on Jesus' bosom one of his disciples, whom Jesus loved. (John 13:23 KJV)
John laid his head on the chest of Jesus. He listened to the very heartbeat of God. I believe this is why John received such profound revelation on the Isle of Patmos. It wasn’t just a punishment; it was a place where he could get in touch with the Lord and sync his heart with heaven.
We need to stop trusting our "knee-jerk" carnal reactions and start spending enough time in the presence of God to match His heartbeat. When God asked Ezekiel, "Can these bones live?", Ezekiel didn't jump to a theological answer. He didn't say, "Yes, Lord, because I know you are omnipotent!" He simply leaned into the Spirit.
And I answered, O Lord GOD, thou knowest. (Ezekiel 37:3 KJV)
He refused to thrust a carnal interpretation onto a spiritual question.
The Poisoned Well: Secular Influence vs. Spiritual Purity
One of the biggest issues in the Body of Christ today is that our wells are poisoned. We spend hours absorbing secular media, watching TV, and scrolling through social media, and then we try to interpret the holy seed of God's Word through that lens.
Jesus said:
He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water. (John 7:38 KJV)
But James warns us about the danger of mixture:
Doth a fountain send forth at the same place sweet water and bitter? (James 3:11 KJV)
We cannot poison the well and expect pure revelation to flow out. When I walk through Walmart and see the magazines, I am grateful that I don't even know who those celebrities are anymore. We need to come out of the world system.
And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues. (Revelation 18:4 KJV)
If we are truly ambassadors of Christ, we should look "weird" to the world. If we fit in perfectly with secular culture, we have likely been poisoned by it. It is far better to look weird to the world than for the Word of God to look weird to us.
Don't Rush the Harvest
We live in a microwave society, but the Kingdom of God operates on seed time and harvest.
And he said, So is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast seed into the ground; And should sleep, and rise night and day, and the seed should spring and grow up, he knoweth not how. (Mark 4:26-27 KJV)
We want immediate answers. We want microwave solutions to gaping wounds. But fruit takes time to develop. Jesus Himself grew in favor with God and man for 30 years before His ministry began.
When you receive a revelation or a burden from the Lord, do not rush to interpret it with your first thought. Pray it through. Fast. Wait until the fruit is ripe. If we speak too soon, or out of our carnal understanding, we might be casting mountains into the sea that weren't meant to be moved yet (Revelation 8:8).
Conclusion
The alien inside of us is only "alien" because we have allowed the world to make us feel at home in the flesh. But we are citizens of Heaven. We are the true aliens on this earth.
This week, I challenge you to examine the source of your interpretations. Are you slapping a worldly label on a heavenly mystery? Are you filtering the voice of God through the noise of culture?
Let’s clear the well. Let’s submit our theology to the Spirit. Let’s lay our heads on the chest of the Father until our breath matches His breath and our hearts beat in sync with His will.
God bless you. Dig deeper and go higher.
Action Items
Audit Your "Intake": This week, track how much secular media (TV, news, social scrolling) you consume versus the Word of God. Identify one "poisoned" source you can eliminate to clear your spiritual well.
Practice "Heartbeat" Prayer: Spend 15 minutes in silence, not asking for anything, but simply "leaning your head on Jesus' chest." Focus on aligning your spirit with His peace and rhythm before you speak.
Pause Before Interpreting: When you receive a spiritual insight or read a scripture, do not immediately jump to your first thought or traditional understanding. Ask the Lord, "What are You really saying?" and wait for His answer.
Pray It Through: If you are carrying a "burden of the Lord" (a concern for someone, a ministry idea, a prophetic sense), commit to praying over it for at least 3 days before taking any action or sharing it with others.
Fast for Clarity: Consider a partial or full fast for one day this week specifically to disconnect from the carnal appetites that cloud your spiritual vision.
Good morning, peeps! Conrad here, from ConradRocks.Net, bringing you a revelation poured out fresh from a recent prayer walk. As I strolled through my beautiful neighborhood of Como, Mississippi, the Lord revealed something profound to me – a message about reclaiming our spiritual heritage and the liberty our forefathers fought so hard to secure. The sun rising through the trees sparked a deep reflection on how values shift and how crucial it is to remember our roots.
A Town Steeped in History
Como, a small town with a big past, once boasted the most millionaires per capita at the turn of the century. These magnificent homes, nestled right next to the railroad, tell a story of a different time. Today, we might shun living so close to the noisy trains, but back then, it was highly coveted. This contrast made me think deeply about our nation's spiritual journey.
The Forsaken Freedom
Our forefathers yearned for freedom of worship, a liberty they considered so precious they were willing to die for it. But have we truly honored their sacrifice? It grieves my heart to see how we've almost "boomeranged" their prayers back to them, neglecting the very freedom they fought to establish. We’ve forgotten the importance of the spiritual foundation upon which America was built.
A Vision on the Prayer Walk
This message was ignited within me during a prayer walk, much like the one I was on as I recorded this podcast. Susan and I were walking, and I had an open vision – a prophetic experience where the spiritual and physical realms intertwined. It reminded me of Elisha praying for his servant to see the spiritual army surrounding them (2 Kings 6:17 KJV). As we walked, I saw darkness, but also fires lighting up.
The Power of Prayer Walks
This vision underscored something I deeply believe: we light fires as we pray over our neighborhoods. Sitting on the couch won’t cut it. Jesus commanded us to "go and make disciples" (Matthew 28:19 KJV), and as the Israelites walked around Jericho, things happened (Joshua 6 KJV). Prayer walking isn't just a quaint practice; it's a spiritual act that impacts our communities. We need to pray for our neighbors, with our neighbors, and about our neighbors.
Fire in the Bible
Fire plays a powerful symbolic role throughout the Bible. Moses used fire to purify (Numbers 31:23 KJV), sacrifices were offered with fire (Leviticus 1:9 KJV), and Jesus baptizes with the Holy Spirit and fire (Matthew 3:11 KJV). The fires I saw popping up during the prayer walk represented a rekindling of the supernatural power we need in our nation.
A Heart for Repentance
I consistently speak about my heart for America to rediscover its Christian roots. Our forefathers sought freedom of religion; it’s number one on the Bill of Rights! This wasn't an afterthought; it was the foundation upon which our Constitution was ratified.
The Torch of Liberty
During a recent prayer meeting, the Lord gave me a vision that truly struck me. I saw the fire that I had seen in previous prayer walk visions, but this time, it was atop the torch of the Statue of Liberty. I was confounded. What was the Lord showing me?
A Dream Revisited
This vision brought back a dream from years ago, where Lady Liberty had fallen into the ocean, and people were desperately trying to raise her with air balloons. It resonated with the idea that something foundational in America has fallen, and we're struggling to lift it back up.
Apologizing to Our Forefathers
We need to apologize to our forefathers. What they held sacred, we've often despised. They forged a future for us, but we've neglected the boundaries, statutes, and precepts they established. This neglect has brought us to a critical point.
More Than Politics
The solution isn't political. Jesus didn't ask for a vote, and Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego didn't seek a political solution in the fiery furnace; they used faith (Daniel 3 KJV). The “air balloons” trying to raise Lady Liberty in my dream represent the Holy Spirit, attaching Himself to the very symbol of our nation's liberty to raise her back up.
The “If” of Revival
My dream ended abruptly, and I believe it’s because of the “if” in 2 Chronicles 7:14 (KJV): "If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land."
The Fatherless Generation
There's a critical “if” in that verse. Will we get off the couch? Will we turn the hearts of the fathers to the children? (Malachi 4:6 KJV) I see a symptom of our societal decline in the lack of godly fathers and men of integrity. We are, in many ways, a fatherless generation.
The Sleeping Giant
The church has become a sleeping giant, lulled to sleep by comfort, television, and the fear of offense. We have the truth, but we're afraid to share it! The writers of the Bible weren’t afraid; they died for the truth (Hebrews 11 KJV). What will people say from the flames of hell when they see us in heaven? “Why didn’t you share the gospel with me?”
Faith Changes Cities
Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego – just a few obedient people – changed a city. It doesn’t take a majority; it takes a committed few. I sometimes feel overwhelmed, questioning if America will repent. But even in the face of what seems like national rejection of God, I see people getting saved.
God's Not Through Yet
Even when God was going to destroy Sodom and Gomorrah, and when Noah built the ark (Genesis 6-9 KJV), people didn't repent. Even during the plagues of Revelation, they refused to turn from their sins (Revelation 9:20-21 KJV). But there are people in America getting saved! That gives me hope. God is not through with us yet.
A Call to Action
Maybe that “few” is you and me. Are you willing to step outside your comfort zone and contend for the soul of America? What would we say to our forefathers if they walked into our living rooms? “I’m sorry, George, I let the torch fall.”
Revive Us, God
I pray for the fire, the passion of those who founded this nation. America was meant to be a city on a hill (Matthew 5:14 KJV), a light to the world. But we have defiled that name. I pray for Your Spirit, Your fire, a passion for integrity and righteousness, and to exalt the name of Jesus above all. Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord (Psalm 33:12 KJV). I pray that we can once again call ourselves a Christian nation. Revive us, God! Resurrect those dreams of the forefathers!
Don't Give Up
Don't give up on America! What will the Lord say if He sees us giving up when He asks us to keep going? Let's pray for our neighborhoods, our neighbors, and step outside our comfort zones.
Beyond the Building
Reading the Bible and going to church once a week isn't the end-all of Christianity; it's the pep rally before the game! Ephesians 6 tells us to put on the armor of God (Ephesians 6:11 KJV) and take ground for Jesus today!
Hey everyone, it's Conrad here, from ConradRocks.Net. Welcome back! I'm excited to share something deeply personal and, I believe, profoundly relevant with you today. I recently had a powerful, spiritual vision during prayer – actually, it's one of several I've experienced lately. I’m going to start sharing them with you, and I felt led to share this one first. It's something I've been pondering and praying about, and I truly believe it holds a crucial message for the church and for America right now. I believe this is a prophetic word for us. So, grab your coffee, settle in, and let's dig deeper together!
The Vision: A Heavenly Impact
In this particular vision, the very first thing I heard was a distinct phrase from Heaven: "Break up the fallowed ground." This wasn't just a whisper; it was a clear, authoritative command. Immediately after hearing that phrase, I saw a huge metal object. It looked like a giant steel punch press, something industrial and powerful. It was like a beam from heaven, and I could sense it was a supernatural instrument. This object struck the Earth with an incredibly loud boom, shaking the very ground. As it struck, dust and dead leaves shot into the air, and then slowly began to settle back down. The vision was both awe-inspiring and sobering.
Personal Reflections and Ponderings
The phrase "break up the fallowed ground" really resonated with me. Over the last few days, I’ve spent time in prayer and reflection, seeking the Lord's heart about this vision. I’m always seeking the spiritual meaning behind the things God reveals. It feels weighty, a call to action, and I think it’s something we as believers need to take seriously. It was clear that the shaking was not an ordinary shaking. It was deliberate and prophetic.
Biblical Connections and Teachings
Let’s unpack the symbolism a bit. When the object struck the earth, I was immediately reminded of Matthew 24:29: "Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken." This isn’t just about end-times; it speaks to a principle. God’s will in Heaven always precedes His will on Earth. The supernatural realm is always the catalyst. Think about how God speaks in the Bible; things are declared, and then they manifest. We need to pay close attention to what is being declared from Heaven right now.
The dust rising and settling is symbolic of the people; we are the dust of the Earth. We are reminded in scripture that from dust we came and to dust we shall return. But the dead leaves – those stood out to me. Those dead leaves represent dead works from a dead tree. Where was the fruit? I didn't see it. There were only leaves. This is the opposite of Psalms 1:1-6. These verses describe a righteous person as a tree planted by the rivers of water, always having access to the life-giving source that brings forth fruit, with leaves that do not wither. They are fruitful, and always fertile. In contrast, the dead leaves of my vision, represent those not connected to the river that flows from the throne room of God. Those not meditating on the Lord day and night. Those leaves are from dead works, they're ungodly and unproductive. We need to ask ourselves, are our works alive or dead?
The Significance of "Break Up the Fallowed Ground"
Let's dig into the core of this vision. The phrase, "break up the fallowed ground," carries immense weight. It’s not just a suggestion, it’s a directive. We are called to action! This ties in so well to Hosea 10:12-13, which says "Sow to yourselves in righteousness, reap in mercy; break up your fallow ground: for it is time to seek the Lord, till he come and reign righteousness upon you. You have plowed wickedness, you have reaped iniquity; you have eaten the fruit of lies: because you did trust in your way, in the multitude of your mighty men."
Hosea lived out a spiritual message of an unfaithful Israel, so this message is deeply relevant to us today. It’s a message for the church in America and perhaps even the world. Instead of continuing to plow in wickedness – and let’s be honest, as a nation, we’re plowing in a lot of wickedness with abortion, murder, and the normalization of so much sin - we are called to sew in righteousness and reap mercy. It’s time to break up the fallowed ground in our hearts, our lives, our churches, and our nation.
Jeremiah also speaks to this in Jeremiah 4:3-4, "For thus saith the Lord to the men of Judah and Jerusalem, Break up your fallow ground, and sow not among thorns. Circumcise yourselves to the Lord, and take away the foreskins of your heart, ye men of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem: lest my fury come forth like fire, and burn that none can quench it because of the evil of your doings.” We can see that the call to break up fallow ground is not new. The Lord has been calling for this for millennia. These scriptures are a prophetic call for our hearts to return to Him! We can't just ignore the abominations we are doing in the sight of the Lord, both individually and as a nation.
Jeremiah continues to say, "Declare ye in Judah, and publish in Jerusalem; and say, Blow ye the trumpet in the land." This connects to another recent observation; I've been hearing reports of strange, shophar-like noises all over the planet. Many people have been capturing them on video. I’ll include a link to my previous YouTube video on this phenomenon in the show notes, but it made me wonder: could these be God blowing His Heavenly shophars? Are these signals that His will is about to be manifest on Earth? It's worth pondering in light of 2 Peter 3:10, which speaks of the heavens passing away "with a great noise." The noise in the vision was like the ground shaking. It wasn't a supernatural sound of joy; it was a weighty, powerful rumble.
Fallow Ground and the Sower
The term "fallow ground" refers to land that has been left unseeded, uncultivated, and inactive. It's not in use, not producing. In the New Testament, Jesus uses the parable of the sower to talk about different types of soil, which parallels this very concept. This connects to the idea that we’ve been letting the wild things grow and have not been taking care of our spiritual field here in America. We need to ask the Lord to send laborers into the Harvest. Mark 4:3-20 illustrates how some seed falls by the wayside, some on stony ground (fallow ground), some among thorns, and some on good ground.
The seed is the Word of God, the prophetic declarations, and the supernatural revelations. We as believers are the sowers, charged with spreading the Word. But, we cannot spread the word and then leave it to wither. We must create disciples. When we sow the word in someone’s life and then fail to disciple them, it’s like the seed that falls on stony ground, or amongst the thorns. Satan steals away the word sown into the hearts of people. We are called to cultivate and nurture the seed so that it produces the fruits of righteousness, and not just a bunch of dead leaves that are unproductive.
We need to deal with the roots, uproot them. We need to get the rocks out of the way and then plow the land.
This vision is not just an interesting story or a great prophetic word. It’s a call to action, and it's a call to repentance. It's a call to proactively break up the fallow ground in our lives, our families, our churches, and our communities. This means actively pursuing righteousness, seeking the Lord daily, and not just sitting by, letting weeds take over. It is time for Team Jesus to rise up! This isn't passive; it's active, requiring us to work in His power. We need to plow the land in prayer and allow the Lord of the Harvest to send laborers into that harvest.
We need to be the laborers that God has called us to be, by being actively involved in our communities, and our cities. We cannot be silent. We have a message of salvation, of grace, and of hope, and we need to be sharing it with others. When we sew the word that the Heavenly Father gives us, we are meant to speak it out loud and not keep it silent.
This is the call to engage. This is what the National Day of Prayer is all about. We need to pray and take action to break up the fallow ground in this nation.
Conclusion
My friends, this vision is a reminder that God is speaking and is wanting us to partner with Him in these critical times. The phrase “break up the fallow ground” is a charge to cultivate not just the earth around us, but more importantly, the spiritual soil of our hearts and minds. Let’s be intentional about seeking His presence, sowing seeds of righteousness, and breaking free from the dead works that hinder us. Let’s allow this prophetic vision to spark a fire in us.
Remember, tomorrow I’ll be sharing another powerful vision about a large flow of air and how it relates to what we're experiencing now, so be sure to tune in.
We’re all called to dig deeper and go higher, so let’s do it together. I encourage you to share this post with your friends, rate it where you listen, and leave a comment below. Let's break up the fallow ground together!

A Dream of Nazi Germany and Its Warning for Today's Church
As a passionate believer in developing a spiritual relationship with the biblical Jesus, I often find myself receiving profound insights through dreams. Recently, I had a dream that transported me back to the time of Nazi Germany, and I believe it holds a powerful message for Christians today.
The Dream: A Glimpse into Darkness
In my dream, I found myself in a building with a man when a Nazi soldier entered. The soldier began berating the man, telling him he was worthless and had to obey the Nazi regime. I felt like an angelic presence, there to bring light into this dark situation.
I told the man, "I'm from the future. This soldier is part of a conspiracy of evil, working for the rulers of darkness. He's trying to brainwash you. You have a future in Jesus, a destiny that's far greater than what this man is telling you."
This encounter reminded me of Jesus' words in Luke 22:52-54, where He spoke about the "hour and the power of darkness" before His crucifixion. Just as Jesus brought light into the darkest moment in history, we are called to be bearers of His light in our world today.
The Parallels to Our Time
As I reflected on this dream, I couldn't help but draw parallels to our current situation in America. The fruit of the Spirit isn't as evident in our streets as it once was. Morality, which was a big deal in the 40s and 50s, seems to have taken a backseat. Jesus prophesied in Matthew 24 that "the love of many shall wax cold because iniquity shall abound." We're seeing this unfold before our eyes.
The Rise of Darkness: A Historical Perspective
The rise of Hitler in Germany serves as a sobering reminder of how darkness can overtake a nation, even one with a strong Christian heritage. In 1933, nearly all Germans identified as Christian, with about 40 million Protestants and 20 million Catholics. Yet, they allowed an evil regime to rise to power.
How did this happen? The answer lies in a combination of factors:
1. Resentment and pride: The harsh terms of the Treaty of Versailles left Germans feeling humiliated and angry.
2. Manipulation of media and propaganda: Hitler was a master at swaying public opinion.
3. Gradual compromises: People made small concessions until it was too late.
4. Misuse of Scripture: Hitler used Romans 13 to justify submission to his authority.
The Danger of Complacency
In my dream, the man I encountered was resigned to believe the Nazi soldier's lies. He valued the power of the gun more than the power of the cross. This is a stark reminder of how complacency can lead us to make hell our refuge, as Isaiah 28:14-16 warns.
As Christians, we must be vigilant against this kind of complacency. We can't afford to be lukewarm in our faith or silent in the face of evil. Jesus calls us to be the light of the world, not to hide our light under a bushel.
The Call to Action: Be the Light
So, what can we do to push back the darkness in our own time? Here are some practical steps:
1. Engage with those around us: Instead of being distracted by TV or other passive entertainment, let's actively reach out to our neighbors with the love of Christ.
2. Prayer walk our neighborhoods: Let's saturate our communities with prayer.
3. Participate in events like the National Day of Prayer: Join with other believers to intercede for our nation.
4. Study the Word: Don't just cherry-pick verses, but understand the full context of Scripture.
5. Be discerning: Just because someone claims to be Christian doesn't mean they're following Christ's teachings. Look at the fruit of their actions.
A Personal Reflection
This dream has deeply impacted me, reinforcing my commitment to be a light in the darkness. It's easy to get discouraged when we see the state of our world, but we must remember that we serve a God who is greater than any earthly power.
As your brother in Christ and fellow warrior for the Kingdom, I urge you to join me in this mission. Let's not be the kind of Christians who would be fooled by the Antichrist or tempted to take the mark of the beast. Instead, let's be bold, loving, and uncompromising in our faith.

1. Share this post with friends and family on social media.
2. Rate and review the Conrad Rocks podcast wherever you listen.

Hey everyone, it's Conrad from ConradRocks.Net, and I'm fired up to share a powerful vision God gave me. It’s all about the spiritual state of the church today, the prophetic call on our lives, and the supernatural work God is doing to refine and purify His people. This message is especially for those who feel a stirring in their spirit, a yearning for something more. If you’re tired of lukewarm Christianity and ready to embrace the fire of God, then keep reading.
A Prophetic Encounter at Church and Craft
This story starts back on April 11th, 2015, a date I now recognize as incredibly significant. My wife, Susan, and I were acting on a prophetic dream she had about the intersection of Church and Craft streets here in Olive Branch, Mississippi. We felt led to pray over this specific location, believing it held strategic spiritual significance for the region. As we drove, I suddenly received a powerful open vision. I saw a hand trying to fit into a glove, but two fingers – the ring finger and the pinky – were crippled and couldn't fit. Then, God miraculously transformed the glove to accommodate the crippled fingers.
At the time, I understood this vision related to the five-fold ministry (Ephesians 4:11 – another confirmation of the date's significance!). The apostles, prophets, and evangelists (represented by the thumb, index, and middle fingers) were functioning, but the pastors and teachers (the ring and pinky fingers) were somehow crippled, hindering the full expression of the Church. God, however, was working to bring all five into alignment.
The Vision Unfolds: Molten Gold and the Refiner's Fire
Fast forward to a recent gathering with other prophetic believers. As we prayed for the Holy Spirit to fill the church, I received another vision. This time, I saw a flat, clay mold with grooves for fingers, reminiscent of a potter's mold. I could only clearly see the grooves for the pinky and the ring finger – again, representing the pastors and teachers. The mold was empty.
Then, I saw a refiner’s pot, overflowing with molten gold, pouring into the mold, slowly filling the grooves for the pastor and teacher. This image immediately resonated with the concept of the refiner’s fire, purifying and refining God’s people. When I shared this with Susan, she confirmed my sense that this vision spoke to the lukewarm state of the Laodicean Church (Revelation 3:14-19).
The Laodicean Church: Rich and Increased with Goods, Yet Wretched and Miserable
The Laodicean church, described in Revelation, thought they were rich and needed nothing. But Jesus saw them as wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked. This blindness, I believe, reflects a disconnect within the five-fold ministry, particularly with pastors and teachers, leading to flawed doctrine and a lack of spiritual depth. They were blind to their true spiritual condition.
This vision of the molten gold pouring into the mold represents God's work to refine and purify His church. He is filling the emptiness with His pure gold, tried in the fire. This is not a comfortable process, but it is necessary for us to become the radiant bride of Christ.
Biblical References and Teachings: The Refiner’s Fire
The concept of the refiner's fire is woven throughout scripture. Malachi 3:2-3 describes God as a refiner’s fire, purifying the sons of Levi like gold and silver. 1 Peter 1:7 speaks of the trial of our faith being more precious than gold that perishes, though it be tried with fire. This fire tests and refines our faith, making it stronger and more resilient. And 1 Corinthians 3:11-15 warns that while Jesus is the foundation, anything built on that foundation that isn't gold, silver, or precious stones will be burned away by fire.
These passages remind us that true spiritual growth often involves trials and challenges. The fire of God, though uncomfortable, is essential for purifying us and revealing what truly matters.
Personal Reflections and Experiences: A Call to Deeper Intimacy
This vision has deeply impacted me. It’s a reminder that we, as the Church, need to be more than just warm bodies filling pews on Sundays. We need to be on fire for Jesus, passionately pursuing Him and His kingdom. We need to be willing to go through the refiner’s fire, allowing God to purify and refine us.
I've witnessed firsthand the power of corporate prophetic ministry. When believers gather together, seeking God’s presence, the prophetic anointing flows freely, bringing revelation and insight. I encourage you to find your tribe, connect with other prophetic voices, and experience the transformative power of corporate prayer and worship.
Embrace the Fire
The church in America is at a crossroads. We are facing significant challenges, and it’s time for us to wake up from our spiritual slumber. We can no longer afford to be lukewarm. We must embrace the refiner’s fire and allow God to mold us into His image.
This is a call to action. Are you willing to step out of your comfort zone and into the fire? Are you ready to be refined and purified? Are you ready to see the Church rise up in power and authority, demonstrating the Kingdom of God on earth?
I challenge you to:
Dig deeper into God's Word: Meditate on the scriptures about the refiner's fire and allow them to transform your heart.
Connect with other believers: Find a community of like-minded individuals who are passionate about Jesus and His kingdom.
Seek the prophetic: Be open to the voice of the Holy Spirit and the prophetic gifts.
Pray for revival: Join me in praying for a fresh outpouring of the Holy Spirit on the Church in America.
Let’s get off our couches and be the Church God has called us to be. Let’s be a light in the darkness, a beacon of hope in a world that desperately needs Jesus.

Hey there, fellow seekers of the supernatural! It's Conrad from ConradRocks.Net, and I've got something incredible to share with you. Recently, I experienced a series of powerful prophetic visions that I believe will resonate with many of you on your spiritual journey. Join me as we explore these divine revelations and uncover their deeper meanings.
The Power of Worship: Gateway to the Supernatural
Before I dive into the visions, I want to emphasize the importance of worship in our spiritual lives. As many of you know, I'm a worshipper, and I've experienced firsthand the transformative power of praise. There's something truly magical about picking up my guitar and entering into God's presence through worship.
Scripture tells us that "God inhabits the praises of His people" (Psalm 22:3), and I've found this to be profoundly true. Worship isn't just about singing songs; it's a gateway to the Kingdom of Heaven. It's in these moments of pure adoration that miracles happen, visions unfold, and healing takes place.
I've noticed that some of the most powerful supernatural encounters occur during worship rather than preaching. There's a unique openness to the Spirit that comes when we lay aside our agendas and simply bask in God's presence.
Three Prophetic Visions: A Divine Download
On Saturday, September 5th, I felt a strong urge to spend time in worship. As I began to play my guitar and sing praises, I entered into a deeply spiritual state. It was during this time that the Lord blessed me with three distinct prophetic visions. Let me share them with you:
Vision 1: The Eagle in Darkness
In the spirit realm, I saw an eagle flying through pitch-black darkness. The eagle was disoriented, unable to find a place to land. I sensed its thoughts: "I can't see where to land. I don't know where I'm going."
This vision speaks to the confusion and uncertainty many of us face in these challenging times. The eagle, often seen as a prophetic symbol, represents those with spiritual insight who are currently struggling to navigate the darkness surrounding us.
Vision 2: Plowing Through Obstacles
The scene shifted, and I saw someone plowing a field. However, this wasn't an ordinary field. It was filled with not only rocks but also patches of pavement. These obstacles made the task of plowing incredibly difficult.
This vision aligns with Jesus' parable of the sower in Mark 4:14-17. The rocks and pavement represent the hardened hearts and worldly influences that prevent the Word of God from taking root. As believers, we're called to "plow" through these obstacles, preparing the soil of people's hearts to receive the Gospel.
Vision 3: Two Coexisting Realities
The final vision was perhaps the most perplexing. I witnessed two distinct environments existing side by side, separated by an inexplicable line. On one side was complete darkness, while the other side was bathed in bright daylight. These contrasting realities had no business coexisting, yet there they were.
This vision speaks to the spiritual battle we're engaged in daily. Light and darkness, good and evil, exist simultaneously in our world. As believers, we're called to be the light in the darkness, shining brightly even when surrounded by spiritual opposition.
Biblical Reflections on the Visions
As these visions unfolded, several scriptures came to mind, providing deeper insight into their meanings:
1. "Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus." (Philippians 3:13-14)
This verse reminds us to keep moving forward, even when the path ahead seems unclear, just like the eagle searching for a place to land.
2. "No one who puts a hand to the plow and looks back is fit for service in the kingdom of God." (Luke 9:62)
Jesus' words here emphasize the importance of commitment and perseverance in our spiritual journey, especially when faced with obstacles like the rocks and pavement in the second vision.
3. "You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden." (Matthew 5:14)
This verse relates to the third vision, reminding us of our role as bearers of God's light in a world where darkness still exists.
Personal Reflections and Experiences
These visions have deeply impacted my own spiritual walk. They've reminded me of the importance of staying connected to God through worship, even when the world around us seems chaotic. I've been challenged to be more intentional about "plowing the field" of my own heart, removing any obstacles that might hinder my relationship with Jesus.
I've also been reflecting on how these visions apply to our current global situation. Many of us feel like that eagle, disoriented and unsure of where to land in these turbulent times. But I believe God is calling us to trust Him, to keep moving forward, and to be beacons of light in the darkness.
Digging Deeper and Going Higher
I want to encourage you to take these visions to heart and apply them to your own life:
1. Prioritize worship: Set aside regular time to enter God's presence through praise and adoration. 2. Plow the field: Identify and remove any "rocks" or "pavement" in your heart that might be hindering your spiritual growth. 3. Be the light: In a world where darkness and light coexist, choose to shine brightly for Jesus.
Remember, in these challenging times, we're called to dig deeper into God's Word and go higher in our spiritual experiences. Let's press on together, seeking the heart of Jesus and allowing His light to shine through us.
Until we meet again, keep seeking the supernatural and stay rooted in the Word. God bless you all!
Spiritual Awakening in Challenging Times: Insights from a Man of Faith!
I recently had the privilege of sitting down with Vernon Mordecai, a man of profound faith and prophetic insight. Our conversation was a spiritual journey, delving deep into the realms of Christian prophecy, supernatural experiences, and the urgent need for revival in our modern world. What follows is an exploration of our discussion, which I believe holds crucial insights for believers navigating these challenging times.
The Current Spiritual Climate: Vernon shared a powerful vision he had recently experienced, one that speaks volumes about the spiritual battles we face today. He described seeing a flood of unclean spirits being released upon the world, affecting those who were not marked by God. This vivid imagery serves as a stark reminder of the importance of staying rooted in our faith and being vigilant in our spiritual lives.
INTERVIEW - PART 1
"I saw what looked like a dam bursting," Vernon explained, "but instead of water, it was a flood of unclean spirits. Those without the mark of God on their foreheads were overwhelmed by these entities." This vision troubled Vernon deeply, causing him to wake up weeping and seeking understanding from the Lord.
The Need for Authentic Christianity: One of the key points that emerged from our discussion was the critical need for Christians to move beyond simply hearing the Word to actively living it out. Vernon emphasized the importance of demonstrating the power of Christ through our actions, not just our words.
"We need to talk less and do more," Vernon stated emphatically. "We need to show the works of Christ. People are watching our actions."
He shared inspiring stories of revivals he had witnessed, where young people were passionate about prayer, fasting, and sharing the gospel - leading to miraculous healings and transformations. One particularly powerful account was of a revival in Smithton, Missouri, where teenagers were at the forefront of a movement that drew thousands to Christ.
"It wasn't the old folks like me," Vernon recalled with a smile. "It was the teenagers getting turned on to Jesus. When they went into their praise services, people were standing outside because they couldn't even get them into the church."
Challenges Facing the Modern Church: We discussed some of the challenges facing today's church, including the tendency towards large, impersonal congregations where true discipleship becomes difficult. Vernon shared his experiences with home churches and smaller fellowships, highlighting how these settings often allow for deeper relationships and more authentic expressions of faith.
"In some of these mega-churches, there's no way a pastor can truly shepherd 10,000 people," Vernon pointed out. "It becomes more about socializing than worshipping God. I call it the First Church of Socialite."
INTERVIEW - PART 2
Signs of the Times: Our conversation touched on various signs that many believe point to the end times - from increased natural disasters to societal changes. Vernon cautioned against simply sitting back and waiting for Christ's return. Instead, he emphasized the need for believers to be actively engaged in sharing the gospel and demonstrating God's love to a hurting world.
"We're seeing earthquakes in diverse places," Vernon noted. "Five years ago, who ever heard of an earthquake here in Oklahoma? Yet now we have more earthquakes than California. We're seeing strange weather patterns, potential famines... these are all signs mentioned in scripture."
The Importance of Spiritual Discernment: Vernon stressed the importance of spiritual discernment in these times, warning against false teachings and "seducing spirits" that can lead believers astray. He shared a powerful analogy of ministers needing to be like sheepdogs, protecting the flock from wolves.
"The Lord showed me in the spirit realm," Vernon explained, "He said, 'They are sheep and they are wolves. I need some sheepdogs.' As ministers, we are to be the guards to keep the wolves away from the sheep."
A Call to Revival: Despite the challenges we face, Vernon expressed his belief that we are on the cusp of a significant revival. He sees this as a time of separation - where those who truly seek God will experience a renewed outpouring of His Spirit, while others may fall away.
"I believe we're literally at the point right now where we're seeing the separation between the wheat and the chaff, the sheep and the goats," Vernon stated. "I believe the door of the Ark of Grace is literally closing upon mankind."
The Power of Small, Authentic Communities: Vernon shared his experiences with home churches and smaller fellowships, emphasizing how these settings often foster deeper relationships and more authentic expressions of faith. He recounted a personal story of starting a home church in New Mexico that grew into a thriving community of believers.
"Some of the greatest moments my wife and I had were in that home church," Vernon reminisced. "We started with Bible studies, and it grew. Eventually, the Lord provided a building that could seat about 120 people. That church is still going strong today."
The Supernatural in Everyday Life: Throughout our conversation, Vernon shared numerous accounts of supernatural experiences and divine interventions. From miraculous healings to prophetic dreams, these stories served as powerful reminders of God's active presence in the lives of believers.
"I remember a time when a nine-year-old boy prayed for his father who needed a kidney transplant," Vernon recounted. "I could literally feel the power of electricity as the Holy Spirit moved. It wasn't some great evangelist that did it - it was the childlike faith of that young boy that brought about the miracle."
The Importance of Worship and Prayer: Vernon emphasized the transformative power of genuine worship and prayer. He shared a particularly moving account of a time when a nearly empty church service turned into a powerful move of God's Spirit through sincere prayer and worship.
"We got so caught up in prayer," Vernon recalled, "that we didn't even notice the church had filled up with people. Next thing we knew, everybody was falling in the Spirit, laughing... it was just like in the book of Chronicles where you'd actually see the glory of the Lord fall."
Preparing for the Future: As we wrapped up our conversation, I asked Vernon what believers should be doing to prepare for the times ahead. His response was simple yet profound: "Get ready. Harken unto the voice of the Lord."
He elaborated, explaining that this preparation isn't about stockpiling supplies or hiding away, but about deepening our relationship with God and being ready to move as He directs. "We need to be doers of the word, not just hearers," Vernon emphasized, echoing James 1:22.
Conclusion: As I reflected on my conversation with Vernon Mordecai, I was struck by the urgency and passion in his words. His insights remind us that we are living in critical times - times that call for a return to authentic, power-filled Christianity. Whether through home churches, passionate youth movements, or simply living out our faith in our daily lives, we are called to be light in an increasingly dark world.
The challenges we face are real and significant, but so is the power of our God. As believers, we are not called to fear the darkness, but to shine brightly within it. We are called to be vigilant, discerning, and above all, deeply rooted in our relationship with Christ.
Call to Action: I encourage you, dear reader, to reflect on your own spiritual walk. Are you merely a hearer of the Word, or are you actively demonstrating Christ's love and power in your life? Let's commit together to seek God more earnestly, to pray for revival in our hearts and our communities, and to be ready for whatever the future may hold.
As Vernon so powerfully reminded us, the time for passive Christianity is over. We are called to be active participants in God's work on earth, to be the "sheepdogs" protecting the flock, to be the light that pushes back the darkness. Let us rise to this call with courage, faith, and an unwavering commitment to the truth of God's Word.
May we be found faithful when Christ returns, having done all we can to spread His love and truth to a world in desperate need. Amen.
