What are we going to encounter in 2025?
In an exclusive interview with Charisma Media, prophetic voice Joseph Z shared what the Lord has spoken to him about for what the church can expect this upcoming year.
In 2024, Z prophesied that it would be a do-over year, paralleling 2020. As we saw this do-over year come to pass with the election cycle and even both the Dodgers and the Kansas City Chiefs taking victories in the sports arena, what happens now in 2025 after the do-over is critical.

“The Lord is speaking to me very clearly about what is to come, and I sense because of this do-over, because of the way the Lord has done things, there is unfinished business that needs to take place,” Z says. “I believe we are going into a time of generational quaking and generational building.”
Z says that after watching the new Superman trailer, God spoke to him about this being a representation of America and the leadership of the church. He also says that when Trump won his re-election, the Lord spoke to him about the state of the church.
“As soon as Trump won in November, the word of the Lord came to me and said, ‘Here is what we’re in danger of right now: The church is in danger of being defeated by victory,'” Z says. “Although we’ve seen this good thing happen, we’ve seen light shine in darkness…the bottom line is suddenly there’s a nefarious supernatural force that’s been released into the nation. It’s been released into the world. It’s a form of witchcraft, it’s a form of Jezebel, it’s a form of deviant voices, prophetic deviant voices, and all these things that are coming forward are trying to manipulate what’s happened.”
Z says the darkness did not believe it would lose, almost placing everything in a spiritual lull for a couple of weeks before we saw an increase in strange occurrences like the drones and the threat of nuclear warfare.
“We’ve seen victory, now the supernatural forces are being released, and what we’ve got to do is rise up in prayer and do what the ecclesia does best, push back the gates of hell,” he says.
Z reveals that in the first two quarters of the year he’s seen the threat of nuclear war, and it is the church’s job to push back this dark agenda. He also had a vision where he was on a bus and saw a flashing in a mountainous area where everyone was dreading what was to come, with heat coming off of the flash.
“The Lord spoke to me as soon as I woke up from that and said, ‘The church is the nuclear deterrent. The body of Christ is the nuclear deterrent.’ And I got a witness in my spirit that said, ‘If we can go through quarter one and quarter two of this coming year without a nuclear incident, or even if there’s a small nuclear incident we can still have the grace of God get us over that…if we get to July without a nuclear incident, without some of these things taking down the nation, I believe we’re going to see the turn of the tide completely.”
Z believes this turning of things will bring another chance for our generation and our children’s generation.
“I believe we’re up to 16 years of redemptive instability where we’ll see a turnaround and victory come. I believe we could see 20 years of life that begins the build and rebuild to the year 2040; I believe God has a marker on that year.”
Z says it is the job of the church right now to keep striking the arrows against the darkness until the enemy is defeated.
“The word of the Lord for 2025 is that we as the body of Christ, the ecclesia, are to storm Babylon,” says Z. “We are to continue rising in prayer, pushing back this nefarious agenda of witchcraft, darkness, social evils, this woke ideology, this control over our economics, this wickedness that’s happening with an invasion of our nation.”
How will we know if our efforts in prayer are working?
“We will know we are storming Babylon as a sign and wonder when suddenly we begin to see a forfeit against foreign adversaries buying up American soil,” says Z.
In 2025, let’s continue to press into the Holy Spirit, follow His leading and pray for God to be the One who has our complete heart and affection.
