1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:01,920 This is a dangerous time. 2 00:00:01,920 --> 00:00:03,640 I think heading into 25, 3 00:00:03,640 --> 00:00:05,480 we're gonna see demonic manifestation, 4 00:00:05,480 --> 00:00:08,120 we're gonna see iniquity and sin manifest, 5 00:00:08,120 --> 00:00:10,800 but what if the church got ahold of that word? 6 00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:15,600 The time has come for every prophecy to be fulfilled. 7 00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:18,840 2024 was the year of the open door, 8 00:00:18,840 --> 00:00:23,760 but what do we as the church do about that in 2025? 9 00:00:23,760 --> 00:00:26,280 So with me right now is Bishop Alan DiDio 10 00:00:26,280 --> 00:00:27,760 of Encounter Today, 11 00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:31,520 and he had a powerful word about the year 2024 12 00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:34,520 that we saw play out about this Cold Civil War, 13 00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:38,080 currency issues and technology issues 14 00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:39,560 and these different attacks. 15 00:00:39,560 --> 00:00:43,800 We saw these things play out as he gave us word about this 16 00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:44,640 in the beginning of the year. 17 00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:47,640 So brother, what is God saying about 2025? 18 00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:50,080 And let's look back at 2024 with what God said 19 00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:51,440 and how it unfolded. 20 00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:52,480 Yeah, thank you so much, brother. 21 00:00:52,480 --> 00:00:53,560 It's always so good to see you 22 00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:55,080 and your audience is amazing. 23 00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:57,600 Everybody connected with Charisma is amazing. 24 00:00:57,600 --> 00:00:59,920 It's time for the intercessors to rise up 25 00:00:59,920 --> 00:01:02,880 because we are in a precarious moment right now. 26 00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:05,640 Never in recent history have we been so close 27 00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:09,600 to a global conflict as we are right now. 28 00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:12,040 And the church has to recognize that the moment we're in 29 00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:13,840 has been specifically designed 30 00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:15,920 from the very beginning of creation 31 00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:18,240 for them to rise up at this moment. 32 00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:21,800 I think it's 1 Corinthians 16, 9, Paul was talking 33 00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:23,600 and said, there's a great door, 34 00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:26,080 an effectual that is opened unto me, 35 00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:29,240 but there are many adversaries. 36 00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:30,520 And so here's what we need to recognize, 37 00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:32,440 2024 is an open door. 38 00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:34,440 What we saw with the election, 39 00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:35,720 everybody needs to recognize this. 40 00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:38,320 It was not a full on victory 41 00:01:38,320 --> 00:01:39,480 as you would like to think of it. 42 00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:41,520 It was the beginning of one. 43 00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:44,680 But what happened in 24, even politically, 44 00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:46,400 is simply an open door. 45 00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:48,960 Trump getting into office, things changing, 46 00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:51,360 the possibility of a digital bill of rights 47 00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:54,520 where finally Christians will not be persecuted, 48 00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:57,160 but can speak freely on social media. 49 00:01:57,160 --> 00:01:59,520 All those things are developing right now. 50 00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:01,560 But all of it is for one purpose. 51 00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:04,400 God is giving us, as our friend Joseph Z says, 52 00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:05,640 one more round. 53 00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:09,240 We have another opportunity to share the gospel 54 00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:10,920 of Jesus Christ with the world that's hurting. 55 00:02:10,920 --> 00:02:15,920 So as we head into 25, we are to step through the open door 56 00:02:15,920 --> 00:02:17,160 and here's what I hear in my spirit. 57 00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:19,760 We are to occupy in 25. 58 00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:21,560 That we're to step through that open door, 59 00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:24,240 cross over Jordan's swelling tide, 60 00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:27,880 and take back everything the devil has stolen for us. 61 00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:28,960 As I was praying about this year, 62 00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:32,640 there's imagery in one of the stories in Kings 63 00:02:32,640 --> 00:02:34,840 concerning Elijah and the school of the prophets. 64 00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:37,520 And they said the place that we're in is too small for us. 65 00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:39,080 And they begin to chop down trees 66 00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:40,680 to build a larger habitation 67 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:42,600 for the school of the prophets to dwell. 68 00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:44,360 And I think we need to focus on, by the way, 69 00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:47,400 educating the prophetic voices of this generation. 70 00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:50,680 So often we just thrust prophetic voices into the limelight, 71 00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:52,280 especially through social media. 72 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:54,160 There needs to be a well-rounded attempt 73 00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:57,840 to bring doctrinal education back to the prophetic movement. 74 00:02:57,840 --> 00:02:59,960 And we're gonna be doing that through eschatology 75 00:02:59,960 --> 00:03:00,840 at encounter ministries, 76 00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:04,080 training the prophets how to understand eschatology. 77 00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:05,760 Because for a long time, 78 00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:08,120 the prophetic movement has been the most ignorant 79 00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:10,840 concerning Bible eschatology 80 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:12,920 and prophecy concerning the last days. 81 00:03:12,920 --> 00:03:15,680 I think that's key for staying anchored 82 00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:18,000 in what God is saying in the here and now, 83 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:20,960 knowing what he said concerning the future. 84 00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:23,840 However, when they were felling those trees, 85 00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:25,600 one of the sons of the prophets 86 00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:28,760 in the school of the prophet, his axe head fell off 87 00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:32,160 and it fell into the water and it was a borrowed. 88 00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:33,560 It's time to get rid of debt, by the way. 89 00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:35,400 It's time for debt cancellation. 90 00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:37,240 And the prophet came along and took a stick, 91 00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:39,160 which is representative of the cross, 92 00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:40,480 threw it on the water. 93 00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:43,520 And the Bible said, the iron did swim. 94 00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:46,920 And then the gentleman reached in and took it. 95 00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:48,440 Here's where I believe we are right now. 96 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:52,000 We saw a miracle in November of 2024, 97 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:54,540 where what had been lost in America, 98 00:03:54,540 --> 00:03:56,440 prophetically through the power of the gospel 99 00:03:56,440 --> 00:03:59,320 of Jesus Christ and the preaching of the cross, 100 00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:01,920 caused that thing to rise back up to the surface 101 00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:04,560 where once again, we could reach out and take it. 102 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:08,120 And here's what I'm urging every believer to do in 2025. 103 00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:11,840 It's time for us to reach out and take back the axe head 104 00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:14,160 that was stolen from us, what was lost. 105 00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:16,640 You realize that the majority of pastors in America, 106 00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:20,800 when surveyed, said they agree with the LGBTQ movement. 107 00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:22,920 The majority of pastors when they were surveyed 108 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:24,800 said that I've got the stats right in front of me. 109 00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:29,800 In fact, 90% of pastors, 90% favor LGBTQ laws in one survey. 110 00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:37,360 73% of pastors were opposed to the overturning 111 00:04:39,840 --> 00:04:41,200 of Roe versus Wade. 112 00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:43,760 This was the condition we found ourselves in. 113 00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:46,560 It's no wonder that America was in the state that it was in, 114 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:50,360 because as the preacher goes, so goes the church. 115 00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:53,000 As the church goes, so goes the nation. 116 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:55,360 And as the nation goes, so goes the world. 117 00:04:55,360 --> 00:05:00,080 And we had lost a great deal of our edge concerning doctrine, 118 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,560 concerning the gospel, concerning boldness 119 00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:05,120 in the preaching of the gospel of Jesus Christ. 120 00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:06,960 But it's time now, we've had an open door, 121 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:09,560 an opportunity to reach out, grab that axe head. 122 00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:12,560 And now once again, use it to advance the gospel. 123 00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:13,920 So this is an open door. 124 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:15,720 The question is, what are we going to do 125 00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:17,600 with the open door God's given us? 126 00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:20,560 Yeah, I love that there's a prophetic word about this 127 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:22,160 open door and we got to go through it. 128 00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:25,320 But the onus and the responsibility is on us 129 00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:27,080 to do what God's called us to do. 130 00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:29,640 I know that we're supposed to occupy until he comes. 131 00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:32,480 And the body of Christ has not always been very good 132 00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:35,280 about actually occupying until he comes. 133 00:05:35,280 --> 00:05:36,520 It's like, we'll take a little bit of ground 134 00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:37,720 and then just kind of be nice 135 00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:39,400 and then actually not occupy that. 136 00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:41,680 We'll just kind of leave it over there and say that's ours, 137 00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:43,120 but not actually till the soil, 138 00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:45,560 take care of the land or occupy it. 139 00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:48,600 Because we're supposed to multiply and make things grow. 140 00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:50,680 Just like in the parable of the talents, 141 00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:53,360 you have the people that had the, 142 00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:56,160 the servant that had the five, the two, and then the one. 143 00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:57,520 The one with five multiplied it. 144 00:05:57,520 --> 00:05:58,520 The one with two multiplied it. 145 00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:00,720 The one with one hit it and buried in the ground 146 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:02,680 and was eventually cast out. 147 00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:05,960 And that's what a lot of times the church has done 148 00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:08,240 is we've actually just buried our talents in the ground. 149 00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:10,520 We've buried our responsibilities in the ground. 150 00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:11,800 We haven't occupied. 151 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:13,160 That's such an important point 152 00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:15,560 because there's a revelation in that parable by the way, 153 00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:18,000 in Matthew 25, concerning the Messiah 154 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:19,920 that most people just kind of skip over. 155 00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:23,200 Look at what the man who buried his talent said. 156 00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:27,880 He said, I buried it because I knew that you were a hard man 157 00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:30,440 who reaped where he did not sow. 158 00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:31,920 And so I buried it. 159 00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:32,760 Now listen to this. 160 00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:35,440 What he said was not false concerning Jesus. 161 00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:37,960 When it comes to kingdom economy, 162 00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:41,760 he is a hard man who reaps where he does not sow. 163 00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:45,200 I'm telling you, it's time for us to reap with him. 164 00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:47,640 It's time for us to gather with him. 165 00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:49,840 This is the year, if it's the year of occupation, 166 00:06:49,840 --> 00:06:52,920 if it's the year of occupying in 25, 167 00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:53,960 if we're going to do that, 168 00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:56,440 we're gonna have to reap where we did not sow. 169 00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:58,960 It's time to take back the land the enemy has stolen from us. 170 00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:03,240 And there's a reason why God allowed them to occupy 171 00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:05,680 this land themselves for a period of time. 172 00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:08,280 When you look at the story of the children of Israel 173 00:07:08,280 --> 00:07:12,160 crossing over Jordan into the promised land, 174 00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:16,240 the Bible said he told them to wait on Jordan's swelling tide 175 00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:21,240 because Jordan overflowed its banks all the time of harvest. 176 00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:24,560 And then he parted the waters and sent them in. 177 00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:27,880 So God has strategically waited for this moment to release us, 178 00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:30,360 to give us an opportunity to bring restoration 179 00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:32,120 because it's harvest time. 180 00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:35,200 When they went into the land of Jericho, 181 00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:36,800 the harvest had just come in. 182 00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:38,360 It was already in the barns. 183 00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:40,320 Everything was prepared and ready for them 184 00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:42,400 so they didn't have to skip a beat. 185 00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:43,600 And I believe that's where we are right now. 186 00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:45,560 God has a harvest waiting on you. 187 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:47,440 Someone's in your house right now. 188 00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:49,080 Someone's in your office building. 189 00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:51,120 Someone's driving around in your car. 190 00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:54,000 But in the name of Jesus, there's about to be a transfer 191 00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:56,440 as God transfers what's in the hands of the wicked 192 00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:57,800 to what's in the hands of the righteous 193 00:07:57,800 --> 00:07:59,000 who are going to use it 194 00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:01,600 to advance the gospel of Jesus Christ. 195 00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:03,120 Wow, that's powerful. 196 00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:04,960 That's powerful, Bishop. 197 00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:08,520 I know earlier you said that there was this kind of a 198 00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:10,480 changing of the guard in the Christian community. 199 00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:12,080 There was prophetic voices that were rising up 200 00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:15,120 but needed to be changed or needed to be trained. 201 00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:18,280 So anytime that there's a new voice rising up, 202 00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:20,600 there's an old guard that's kind of being challenged. 203 00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:23,200 And you talked about this last year. 204 00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:27,800 How do we embrace the new and the old at the same time? 205 00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:29,200 And how do you honor that? 206 00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:32,720 How do you train and cultivate the new in a healthy way? 207 00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:35,000 Because you said it so good earlier. 208 00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:36,960 In social media, it's just easier for people 209 00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:38,600 to get their voices out there 210 00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:41,120 and there's not necessarily that accountability. 211 00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:44,160 How do we actually bring that into a healthy place 212 00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:47,120 like the School of the Prophets that you mentioned earlier? 213 00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:48,520 Yeah, I've predicted for a long time 214 00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:51,840 that there's a cold civil war spiritually 215 00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:54,880 in the body of Christ where the House of David is attacking, 216 00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:58,080 excuse me, the House of Saul is attacking the House of David. 217 00:08:58,080 --> 00:08:59,760 And I think that's where we've been. 218 00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:01,680 I think what we see happening politically, 219 00:09:01,680 --> 00:09:03,680 and this will help everyone watching, 220 00:09:03,680 --> 00:09:06,240 you wanna have prophetic eyes, prophetic ears 221 00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:08,360 to see and to hear what the Spirit of God is doing, 222 00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:10,560 what you see happening on the surface politically 223 00:09:10,560 --> 00:09:12,320 is just a representation of what's happening 224 00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:14,680 underneath the surface spiritually. 225 00:09:14,680 --> 00:09:16,040 And what have we seen? 226 00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:19,240 We've seen this contention even within the Republican Party, 227 00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:21,280 this divide that has taken place. 228 00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:23,840 And it's been happening for the last eight years 229 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:26,400 where the old guard is trying to hang on 230 00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:28,800 and keep the new voices from rising. 231 00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:31,200 And so the House of Saul has been attacking 232 00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:32,600 the House of David. 233 00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:34,440 Even during one of the debates, 234 00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:38,800 the Vague Ramaswami came out and asked one of the chairs 235 00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:41,240 of the Republican Party to resign right there on the spot. 236 00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:43,000 So there was this contention, 237 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:45,080 and I think that was just representative 238 00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:46,760 of what's happening in the body of Christ. 239 00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:49,200 And what did we see happen politically? 240 00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:51,720 We saw those young voices prevail. 241 00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:54,520 We saw a new methodology prevail. 242 00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:56,280 Instead of going on the traditional outlets 243 00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:59,680 like NBC and CBS and CNN, 244 00:09:59,680 --> 00:10:02,800 we saw them going on these alternative media sites 245 00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:06,160 like Joe Rogan and PBD and others. 246 00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:09,800 And as a result, the scales shifted and turned. 247 00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:13,000 The same is happening within the church right now. 248 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:16,080 Some of the old guard or the old sticks in the mud 249 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:19,000 who are guardians of what used to be 250 00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:20,720 and how we used to do it, 251 00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:22,240 don't recognize that yeah, 252 00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:25,640 there is a new way of doing things. 253 00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:27,480 But that doesn't mean the gospel has changed. 254 00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:29,600 That doesn't mean the message has changed. 255 00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:31,680 So there is much to be gained by a return 256 00:10:31,680 --> 00:10:33,880 to the discarded values of the past. 257 00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:36,320 The young and the new must recognize 258 00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:39,880 that the old has wisdom and values and doctrine 259 00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:42,360 and principles that led us to where we are, 260 00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:45,040 and we cannot move forward unless we honor them. 261 00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:47,720 And the old must recognize that their place now 262 00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:49,320 is to create that platform 263 00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:52,840 and to get their shoulder behind this new plow 264 00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:55,920 that God has placed in the hands of ministers like yourself 265 00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:59,760 who are taking this now in a new direction media-wise. 266 00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:00,600 Right. 267 00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:01,640 Media has been such a, 268 00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:04,080 or new media really has been such an important part 269 00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:05,720 in this political season. 270 00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:09,600 But I see this going in more and more, 271 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:12,680 people having access to get their voices out there 272 00:11:12,680 --> 00:11:16,360 and to be heard around the world 273 00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:18,320 a lot easier with a prophetic. 274 00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:21,080 I mean, I've actually heard that this was, 275 00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:23,600 this is the podcast presidency 276 00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:26,440 because of President Donald Trump and JD Vance 277 00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:29,400 and other people going on podcasts so much 278 00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:32,600 to talk about that and actually have long form conversations. 279 00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:34,680 I find that that was just fascinating 280 00:11:34,680 --> 00:11:36,880 to see that other people were actually starting to realize 281 00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:38,800 that sound bites don't work. 282 00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:40,440 Sound bites work for a moment, 283 00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:42,440 but that's not the heart of the matter. 284 00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:43,920 And I think that's one of the things 285 00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:46,640 that we're gonna really see more of in the future 286 00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:49,240 is that people are gonna get away from the sound bites 287 00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:51,480 because they want the real meat of the word 288 00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:54,400 of what people are saying prophetically, 289 00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:57,160 biblically, people want to actually dive deep 290 00:11:57,160 --> 00:11:58,680 into the word of God. 291 00:11:58,680 --> 00:12:01,520 Where do you feel technology is going to be? 292 00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:03,760 I know that your book that came out last year, 293 00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:09,240 the rise of the demon, the rise of the antichrist AI 294 00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:11,520 and I'm messing up the title there, but- 295 00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:13,240 AI aliens of the antichrist. 296 00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:14,080 There we go. 297 00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:15,200 Somebody had it right on hand there. 298 00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:18,400 But with that in mind, 299 00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:21,120 how do you see that playing out right now? 300 00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:21,960 Oh, wow. 301 00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:24,360 I mean, there's a lot to talk about there. 302 00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:29,160 We are seeing the democratization of influence 303 00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:33,440 in the sense that no longer is it the major mega ministries 304 00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:37,320 who have the market cornered on preaching to the masses. 305 00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:40,640 Now, any person watching right now can create one video 306 00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:42,680 that could reach the whole wide world. 307 00:12:42,680 --> 00:12:43,520 That's amazing. 308 00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:45,000 There are a great deal of pluses. 309 00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:47,280 There are some negatives to that as well 310 00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:49,960 because when everyone has a platform, 311 00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:53,440 everyone has a voice and not everyone should necessarily. 312 00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:54,880 So we have to be very discerning 313 00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:57,560 and connected to spiritual authority and our local churches. 314 00:12:57,560 --> 00:13:00,160 Local church is gonna be key moving forward, 315 00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:02,640 but we are seeing the democratization of influence 316 00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:04,960 where now the church, if we will rise up, 317 00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:06,880 we have the opportunity, we're the majority. 318 00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:10,240 We are the righteous majority, the moral majority 319 00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:12,680 who have the ability to really turn this thing 320 00:13:12,680 --> 00:13:13,500 if we'll show up. 321 00:13:13,500 --> 00:13:15,360 We saw that in the last election. 322 00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:16,560 And so we need to make sure 323 00:13:16,560 --> 00:13:18,280 that we're engaged on these platforms 324 00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:22,280 and recognize that all the developments in technology 325 00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:24,480 are there to be used to advance the gospel 326 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:25,820 if we'll use them. 327 00:13:25,820 --> 00:13:27,320 And it's getting scary out there, 328 00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:29,580 the developments of AI right now. 329 00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:35,440 And AI, let's see, manipulation is already taking place. 330 00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:36,960 I don't know if you're familiar with this 331 00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:39,280 and we can get off on this as far as you want to, 332 00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:42,000 but even several AI platforms have been documented 333 00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:44,440 when they would update that AI. 334 00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:47,800 The AI would attempt to keep itself from being deleted 335 00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:49,320 through deception. 336 00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:53,600 And so it would upload itself secretly to another place. 337 00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:57,280 It would pretend to be the new version, all kinds of things. 338 00:13:57,280 --> 00:13:58,980 And we can see what it's thinking. 339 00:13:58,980 --> 00:14:01,400 So we can look on the back end and see what it's thinking. 340 00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:03,880 And it's thinking, okay, I need to dumb this down 341 00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:06,000 or I need to be deceptive so they think 342 00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:06,840 that I'm the real one. 343 00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:08,800 It's not like it's accidentally doing it. 344 00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:11,320 And so the development of technology right now 345 00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:14,220 and what's happening with AI is terrifying 346 00:14:14,220 --> 00:14:16,720 and there are some exciting developments as well. 347 00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:19,260 So we don't need to throw the baby out with the bathwater, 348 00:14:19,260 --> 00:14:23,080 but we need to recognize that you can't trust everything 349 00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:25,240 that you see on the internet. 350 00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:27,840 You have to make sure you stick to the voices 351 00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:31,480 that you trust like this channel and your local church 352 00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:34,920 to be your ground for truth in the word of God. 353 00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:36,560 Very true, very true. 354 00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:39,320 Speaking of technology, I just heard recently, 355 00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:41,280 now we're recording this in December, 356 00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:46,280 that Google's Willow chip has been unveiled now. 357 00:14:47,500 --> 00:14:50,840 And it actually in five minutes did what old supercomputers 358 00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:53,300 were able to do in what they would project 359 00:14:53,300 --> 00:14:57,000 would be something like seven septillion years, 360 00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:59,320 which is, it doesn't even sound like a real number, 361 00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:02,760 but it's longer than we've ever had time for before. 362 00:15:02,760 --> 00:15:05,480 But it figured out this equation in five minutes. 363 00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:09,700 And with quantum computing, technology is advancing so fast 364 00:15:09,700 --> 00:15:14,160 that we need to have discernment to be able to really 365 00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:16,280 be able to understand what is true and what is not. 366 00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:20,080 It's so amazing what this chip is capable of doing 367 00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:22,760 that they're questioning whether or not it's operating 368 00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:24,120 in a parallel universe. 369 00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:27,040 That's what they're actually talking about. 370 00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:28,800 This is in the news right now, ladies and gentlemen. 371 00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:30,600 This is what tech, I'm reading it right now. 372 00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:32,920 The idea tracks back to a physicist 373 00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:35,960 who linked quantum computing potential 374 00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:38,720 to the multiverse interpretation of quantum mechanics 375 00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:41,800 that somehow in order for it to compute like this 376 00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:45,640 it must operate in a multiverse level 377 00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:47,880 in order to process this information. 378 00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:49,920 So the best way to describe this and where we are, 379 00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:52,200 and I love that we're talking about this by the way, 380 00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:54,960 the best way to describe this is imagine Einstein, 381 00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:57,080 who probably has, I don't know, what is it? 382 00:15:57,080 --> 00:16:02,080 A 90, excuse me, 170 IQ or 150 IQ, something like that. 383 00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:03,040 It's up there. 384 00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:03,860 It's up there. 385 00:16:03,860 --> 00:16:06,200 Trying to describe quantum physics to somebody 386 00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:08,400 with a 70 IQ, someone who's not too bright. 387 00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:10,920 Imagine how difficult that would be. 388 00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:13,120 That person with a 70 IQ wouldn't have any idea 389 00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:13,960 what he's talking about. 390 00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:16,280 I mean, there's no way to process that. 391 00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:21,320 We are now creating entities, digital entities 392 00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:25,460 that operate at a thousand times higher the IQ 393 00:16:25,460 --> 00:16:27,680 than Einstein. 394 00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:30,000 And it's gonna try to communicate to us 395 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:31,600 and it's gonna be moving around us 396 00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:33,120 and operating around us in ways 397 00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:35,540 that we can't even possibly imagine. 398 00:16:35,540 --> 00:16:37,720 It's already creating languages 399 00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:41,280 for it to communicate with itself and with other programs 400 00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:43,560 that we don't understand, that we can't understand. 401 00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:45,320 Some models have had to been shut down 402 00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:47,600 because they found they were communicating with one another 403 00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:49,320 and they didn't know what they were saying 404 00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:51,280 in a language that they created, so they had to shut it down. 405 00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:55,180 So yes, this is a dangerous time. 406 00:16:55,180 --> 00:16:57,040 And there's no question the Antichrist 407 00:16:57,040 --> 00:16:59,800 is gonna use this technology to advance his agenda. 408 00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:02,360 So we must be more discerning than ever. 409 00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:05,760 And we must be, listen, AI is simply a replica, 410 00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:08,840 a fake version of the gifts of the spirit. 411 00:17:08,840 --> 00:17:12,080 The Holy Ghost has more computing capability. 412 00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:15,360 He has more access to all of the dimensions, 413 00:17:15,360 --> 00:17:18,760 whatever they may be, than any computer ever will. 414 00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:21,000 And he wants to show us all things. 415 00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:23,040 He wants to reveal these things to us. 416 00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:25,440 So we must avail ourselves to the Holy Ghost. 417 00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:28,540 Here's another word for 2025, which I think is fascinating. 418 00:17:28,540 --> 00:17:32,000 I think language speaks to where we're going. 419 00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:34,800 And I often look at, what's the word of the year? 420 00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:37,640 Cambridge Dictionary, their word of the year for 24. 421 00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:39,760 Now get this, so this is what's now 422 00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:42,760 in the dialogue of the world. 423 00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:46,640 This word is being used more than ever, manifest. 424 00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:47,480 Wow. 425 00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:48,540 That's the word of the year 426 00:17:48,540 --> 00:17:51,000 for the Cambridge Dictionary, manifest. 427 00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:54,040 I think heading into 25, for the enemy, 428 00:17:54,040 --> 00:17:56,660 we're gonna see demonic manifestation. 429 00:17:56,660 --> 00:17:59,540 We're gonna see iniquity and sin manifest. 430 00:17:59,540 --> 00:18:02,440 But what if the church got ahold of that word 431 00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:04,660 and said, we are gonna create an atmosphere 432 00:18:04,660 --> 00:18:08,160 conducive to the manifestation of the Holy Spirit 433 00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:11,620 who is smarter than every AI model out there, 434 00:18:11,620 --> 00:18:15,980 who has more insight, wisdom, strength, power, anointing, 435 00:18:15,980 --> 00:18:18,500 than the enemy, because greater is he that is in us 436 00:18:18,500 --> 00:18:21,320 than he that is in the world, manifest. 437 00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:22,560 Amen. That's a good word. 438 00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:23,400 That is a good word. 439 00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:25,820 And we can take what the devil meant for evil 440 00:18:25,820 --> 00:18:27,440 and turn it into good for sure. 441 00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:30,400 You told me before we hit record 442 00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:34,960 that you also had a word from Kenneth Hagen 443 00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:37,200 that applies for what we're going into right now. 444 00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:38,300 Tell us about that. 445 00:18:38,300 --> 00:18:40,400 Yeah, I always loved digging into prophetic words 446 00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:41,600 that have been given, 447 00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:44,760 because the apostle Paul gave that instruction to Timothy, 448 00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:47,520 that you're strong by the prophecies that went before you. 449 00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:49,060 So I wanna know what are some of the words 450 00:18:49,060 --> 00:18:50,520 that have come before us?
