When tragedy strikes...God is blamed. It is a common theme. Yet, God's Word declares the thief is the one who tries to steal, kill, and destroy. God's Word affirms the heavens belong to the Lord and He has entrusted the earth to the sons of men. The Scriptures teach us the Most-High God cannot even be tempted to do the wrong thing. Let's take an episode to remind ourselves of the goodn...

This podcast moves quickly! Pastor Brad spends the first two segments teaching from Psalm 2. You will discover how the rebellious gods of the nations try to break the bond between the Most-High and His Son, Jesus. Of course, they are unsuccessful. Then, Pastor Brad spends the final two segments teaching from Psalm 3. You will see in the natural realm what takes place when bonds break between a fat...

We are told in God's Word that we will judge the angels. This is not a subject I heard much about growing up in the church. Not only are we told that we will judge angels, but the apostle Paul actually encouraged ladies, specifically those who were married, to cover their hair because of the angels! It is a very interesting subject and it demonstrates that the early church was keenly aware of...

Pastor Brad continues a two-part message focusing on persecution and purpose. Suffering for Christ Jesus is a normal part of the Christian life. As Christ followers, we want to make sure that any of the suffering we go through is from true devotion to Jesus and not because we have treated people the wrong way. It ties in with the purpose God has given us, according to 2 Timothy, chapter one. We ho...

This episode is unique from our typical Spirit Realm journey. God's Word reminds us that followers of Jesus will face times of persecution. It is challenging, difficult, and unfair. However, it is a normal part of the Christian life. Pastor Brad goes boldly into this difficult topic. We don't want it to discourage you, but to encourage you as you face trials and tests in this life. "In fact, every...

Thanks for joining Pastor Brad as we dive into the Spirit Realm. In this episode, we take a deep look into the inaugural Shavout, when Moses entered into the Glory of God's Presence and we connect it to the first Shavout (Pentecost) after Jesus' resurrection from the dead. Did you know God spread the nations at the Tower of Babel by confusing people's languages (Genesis 11)? Did you know God gave...

In this episode, Pastor Brad discusses three of the devil's characteristics and the way darkness uses them against you. Let's use this time today to shine light into the way devil and the dark realm work against us. We can forfeit victories from a lack of understanding. Thanks for following! www. BradRiley.net

Jesus defeated the devil. Jesus destroyed the devil's work. And, those who follow Christ, live in the victory Jesus achieved over His defeated adversary. To help us live in the victory Jesus accomplished, it is important to learn more about the devil; his agenda and his ways. We hope this episode helps, equips, and empowers you!

Signs, Wonders, and Miracles are for today. Don't give up when it comes to praying for them, learning about them, studying the Scr...

God's Word is full of stories of the miracles of physical healings. As a matter of fact Jesus instructs His disciples to "heal the sick, raise the dead, and cast out demons." Over the years Pastor Brad has had the opportunity of watching numerous healing miracles. He has seen blind eyes opened, deaf ears opened, and all sorts of physical healings. In this episode, our host discusses...

There is an incredible passage in the Book of Isaiah when the prophet is used to declare that the offspring of the Rephaim will never rise again, but, the offspring of the Righteous One will not stay in the dust! It is another prophecy of God's only begotten, Jesus, and His victory over the fallen ones and their offspring. Jesus defeats death--and they never will! Pastor Brad uses this episode...

Pastor Brad spent time talking about what happens to the spirit/soul of Christ followers after they pass in this life. Before the resurrection of Jesus, righteous people had to wait in a holding place; in paradise. Sometimes it was referred to as Abraham's Bosom. However, since the resurrection of Jesus, we do not go to a holding place any longer. We enter into the very Presence of Jesus. We h...

Pastor Brad concludes a Two-Week Mini Series focused on the Resurrection of Jesus! In this Episode: Jesus disarms principalities and powers. Jesus preaches to the spirits in prison. Jesus ascends to the right hand of The Father. Enjoy celebrating Jesus' Victory. www. BradRiley.net

We are taking a bit of a different journey in the Spirit Realm this week. Pastor Brad begins a Two-Week Mini Series focused around the subjection of the Resurrection of Jesus! The Resurrection of Jesus is the single most eternal changing event in history. Can you believe there are still individuals who deny the historical Jesus lived and was crucified? These same individuals claim the disciples pr...

What started as a mini-series, became a 4-Part deep dive into what times will be like before the Second Coming of Messiah. In this episode, Pastor Brad does a quick review of what we have discussed the past month. Then, he shows how Noah's life was a prophetic sign of the life of Christ and a picture of what the church should be like before the return of The Lord. We hope you have enjoyed this...

Well, what started out as a two part mini-series has grown! Pastor Brad continues in his discussion of "As in the Days of Noah." We will go ahead and let you know ahead of time--it will be one more episode after this one! In this episode, Pastor Brad continues talking about the similarities of the times before the deluge and the times before the return of the Son of man. We also take a f...

Pastor Brad continues his mini-series about the times before the return of the Lord. Jesus mentioned that the times before His return would be similar to the times before the great deluge. It was Brad's intent for this to be a two part series, but we believe it will actually be three or four parts to discuss all of the needed material. After all, we are dealing with rebellious ben ha Elohim, N...

In previous episodes, Pastor Brad has helped to give insight and teaching into the rebellious ben ha Elohim (sons of God) of Genesis 6 and how they abandoned their spiritual estate (Jude 1:6) to contaminate the humanity. In this episode, Pastor Brad will begin a two week mini-series entitled "As in the Days of Noah." After all, Jesus told His disciples that the time before His return wil...

Pastor Brad deals with some challenging topics and thoughts in this episode. He addresses topics like: Not everything that happens is God's will. God is Sovereign but God is not controlling. God's foreknowledge does not equate predestination. If every storm was from God, Jesus would not have calmed the storm. And, if every death happened when it was supposed to happen, Jesus would not have given H...

Why is it so important to know Jesus opened the eyes of the blind? According to the Old Testament, only the Messiah or the Lord Himself gave sight to eyes. When Jesus opened blind eyes, He was giving direct evidence that He was The One they were looking for; He was the Lord Himself. When we are used by God to open blind eyes--we confirm Who He Is to the world and Who it Is we are following. Jesus...

We Live Below our Privileges as God's imagers on earth. We are called to live in The Glory... When we read about the glory (Kāḇôḏ) of God in the Old Testament, we see the likeness of a Man revealed in that glory (Kāḇôḏ). In this episode, Pastor Brad will discuss the pre-incarnate encounters with Jesus in the glory (Kāḇôḏ) of The Lord. And, then we will discover the promise of the Kāḇ...

If you have ever wanted to gain a better understanding of the disloyal spiritual sons of God, this episode is for you. Pastor Brad looks into Psalm 82, Deuteronomy 32, Psalm 89, and John 10. Let's expose these rebellious spiritual beings and show how God has pronounced judgement upon each of them. Connect with your host: www. BradRiley.net

God Most-High; The Ancient of Days is known in the Scriptures as the Rider of the clouds. When Caiaphas, the high-priest who oversaw the illegal trial of Jesus, charged Jesus to answer if He was the Messiah, Jesus stated, "You will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Mighty-One and coming on the clouds of heaven." Jesus was letting the world know that He is the Rider of t...

The Israelites were guided and covered by the Glory of God in the wilderness. Moses would experience the glory of God and radiate God's glory for a period of time after departing God's Presence. Jesus brought the glory of God to us and, according to Paul, we have an ever-increasing glory. In this episode, we are going to learn about the glory of God and what it means to access God's glory. We are...

Pastor Brad referred to this episode of Spirit Realm as a "Sunday School Lesson." We've talked a lot about the rebellious spiritual sons that have caused so much damage on earth and wreaked havoc in the lives of people. Did you know that God has placed us in the position that they abdicated through their rebellion? As a follower of Christ, you have been given the highest levels of au...
