From perhaps the beginning, Satan has tried to implant a religious spirit in our hearts - one of pride, self-seeking, and one that hates the workings of the Holy Spirit. And unfortunately, the religious spirit is hard to detect by those who have it. In this video, we will look at various attributes of the religious spirit so you may audit your heart to easily identify any of its influence in your...

We often find that the physical observances the Father asks us to do, while important, are only the "tip of the iceberg". What He is sometimes even more interested in is the transformation of our hearts and learning of the intended spiritual lessons that come with the physical observances. And the book of Leviticus is no different. While it has often been considered as too "weird", inapplicable or...

Those who reject Paul as a False Apostle typically cite a large number of "reasons" to attempt to persuade the reader that their case is stronger. However, if their stance was correct, they would only need one: That the rest of the apostles denied Paul. But the opposite is true, and this actually becomes one of the strongest reasons for how we know Paul is a true Apostle! See the proof text discus...

We are entering an age where more and more false prophets will start arising. Last year at the feast of Sukkot in Texas, I spoke on this very idea, and we are seeing it come to fruition in 2020. These false prophets will be allowed by God to go forth to test His people, to see where their hearts are (Deut 13). These false prophets will also be used by the enemy to accomplish certain goals and dece...

A week ago, "Christian Truthers" released a teaching titled, "50 Reasons to Never Quote Paul Again." The video attempted to prove that Paul is a false apostle, that we should treat him as such, and throw out all his books from our Bibles. Some people who listened to this teaching were persuaded by a few of the "arguments." This was a distressing observation, as the points raised in the teaching we...

Jesus told us to remain childlike for a reason. Sometimes we get too "grown-up" and "mature" for our own good. We take pride in our understanding of complex theological concepts, or superb knowledge. But do we do the basics? Could it be that we sometimes try to chew meat before we even have teeth? And then we end up going hungry because we can't truly apply what we've learned; because we don't kno...

Recently I overheard an interview with a man who said that he "converted to flat earth in 3 minutes" after he heard of the theory. He stated that after all the things he's been lied to before, from things concerning his religion to other lies by the government, he can't trust anything he's been taught anymore. And for that reason, he simply concluded that this conspiracy theory is another that "mu...

The world is captivated by the coronavirus. But thousands of years ago, God gave His yearly feast days to be kept forever. Why forever? Because He knew that as time goes on, and birth pains increase, the world will be captivated by more and more things to be afraid of. But He continuously calls His people to be captivated with His season. This is not the season of the Coronavirus! This is His. Dur...

For a time, many have assumed that walking in God's law is contrary to walking in the Spirit. This is because of Paul's fierce language against circumcision, which he calls a "yoke of slavery." He also says that anyone who tries to keep the law, is obligated to keep it all! So now, we must rather "walk in the Spirit" (Galatians 5:5). But what if the idea of "circumcision" Paul is addressing was no...

When Paul speaks of the story of Sarah & Hagar allegorically, some have thought that Paul is saying that anyone who tries the keep God's law, is trying to be a slave like Hagar. But this misunderstanding has come in because few truly understand the simple story of Sarah & Hagar in Scripture. When we understand what Abraham and Sarah's error was, we will be in a much better position to accu...

Panic has captivated the world as various plagues sweep across it. Many have criticized churches for closing, others criticized others for desiring to go out and pray for the sick. Many have been in a panic, while others take on a more careless approach. But why is all of this happening, prophetically speaking? What is the biblical response of the believer suppose to look like? The Bible - it's st...

Paul famously called the Galatians "foolish" in his letter. This has often been taught to be due to their desire to follow God's law. But what if biblical and historical contexts teach us that they were foolish for starting to believe a prevalent lie circulating in the first century? It has also often been concluded that Paul's writings regarding the law as a "schoolmaster" downplays its importanc...

Galatians is perhaps one of the most misunderstood and hard to understand books of the Bible. Without an understanding of the 1st-century culture - it's people and the issues Paul faced, it would be impossible to fully understand what Paul is teaching. This is simply because we are reading someone else's mail - the Galatians. In this series, we will uncover the history to reveal a deeper meaning t...

In the midst of an outbreak such as the Coronavirus, it is easy to focus all our attention on physical preparations. But have you prepared spiritually?

A quick update on a recent announcement of spiritual attack. Thank you for your support in this season!

Hi brothers and sisters, This is the hardest video I’ve ever done from the over 300 videos on the Rise on Fire channel. Things have been very hard health wise and I have found myself in the wilderness. A place where I know only God can deliver me and give me nourishment. I believe the various things that have happened to me are no coincidence, it is spiritual attack by the enemy. I hope this video...

Let's be honest, there's one thing about this whole "relationship with God" thing that makes us really uncomfortable: We can't control Him. And that is terrifying sometimes. In the past, we created idols of wood and stone. They said and thought what we made them say and thought through our imaginations. But the One True Living God is not determined by our thoughts. He does what He wants, thinks wh...

Regarding the controversial spiritual gift of speaking in tongues, there are generally two camps of belief, which disagree with one another. The main obstacle is disagreement on what the gift practically looks like. We can agree on what happened in Acts 2, but is there more to it than that one event? Paul describes the gift in-depth, and describes it in a way that seems to indicate that the gift i...

A scam artist made just another call to scam his next victim. But this call would be very different. In fact, his plan to scam was turned around by God to become the call that saved his very soul. And the scam artist ended up stating he would leave his job to never scam again. We are called to be like Jesus to people even out to "get us", betray us, or deceive us. Responding with Jesus in those si...

What if I told you that the first and perhaps one of the most complete evangelistic models laid out in the Bible by God for us, is actually found in what we call the "Old Testament"? Many forget that Moses was one of the first and greatest evangelists. God gave Moses the methods, and later Jesus (Yeshua) would implement the same even more powerfully in His ministry. So to walk as Yeshua did, we ne...

Why does it seem that I always talk about the Holy Spirit & spiritual gifts? In this video, we will talk about why we need the Holy Spirit working in our lives every single day, what it has to do with love, and what it means for our walk with Jesus as a disciple. Unfortunately, sometimes there has come a divide of what we call a "Christian" today, and what a disciple is. Somewhere along with h...

As a followup to the Speaking in Tongues series, we received many awesome questions! In this teaching, I answered the most commonly asked questions we received, especially in relation to the "do's and don't's" with regards to the gift; and how to responsibly exercise it in a public setting. Some of the questions featured: Is it OK to pray in tongues for a friend? Is it scriptural for an entire con...

God is so incredibly pure and good, that He takes the most horrible and terrifying circumstances that come about because of sin in the world; and turns it around to accomplish good. In fact, the good that He accomplishes by turning sin around is so good that it often overshadows the bad altogether. Simply, when we are in God, He doesn't say nothing bad will ever happen to us, on the contrary, He p...

2019 has come to a close, and we had an amazing year with you! In this video, we are sharing our findings of traveling throughout the USA in 2019. We have met many wonderful people, and also received an overview of the current state of believers. Additionally, we are sharing some statistics indicating the amazing growth we've seen in viewership of the ministry this year. And lastly, we will share...

When we don't truly understand how much we've been forgiven, because we think we're better than we really are, we will struggle to love. Because we will think we didn't need much forgiveness and mercy, so why would anyone else? Why would we extend such mercy to others when "we didn't need it". Pride is the opposite of love, and as you'll discover in this teaching, pride is very subtle in how it st...
