What happens when the occult stops hiding in the shadows and begins walking through the front doors of the church? According to Pastor Billy Crone of Get A Life Ministries, that question is not hypothetical—it’s unfolding right now in real time.

“Twenty-five percent of professing Christians believe there’s more than one way to heaven,” Crone said. “That’s not the world—that’s the church.” That discovery pushed Crone into a nearly decade-long teaching series on world religions, pseudo-Christian cults and occult systems.

One area stood out above the rest: Freemasonry.

While many consider Freemasonry a civic club focused on charitable work, Crone argues the order’s core is openly Luciferian. “It truly is a Luciferian order,” he said. “They literally believe that Satan—light bearer, Lucifer—is here to share truth.”

Behind the symbolism and secrecy is what Crone calls a counterfeit millennial kingdom: a man-made utopia promised apart from Christ.

For those who argue lower-level Masons are unaware of the deeper meaning, Crone pushes back: “You can’t get past the first degree without denying Christianity.” He recounts initiation rituals involving blindfolding (“hoodwink”), bowing before a “worshipful master” and swearing bloody oaths. “If you’re a born-again Christian, the Spirit of God would be screaming inside you,” he said.

More alarming still is where Freemasonry has nested itself—inside the church. “Sometimes the Freemason isn’t just the deacon or elder,” he warns. “They’re the pastor.” He describes Masons pressuring pastors to avoid exclusive claims about Jesus, world religions and the occult. “That’s why a lot of churches won’t talk about Jesus being the only way,” he noted. “It’s counter to their false gospel.”

But Freemasonry isn’t alone. Witchcraft, New Age practices and even Satanism are now entering through seeker-sensitive doors.

“This whole movement of self-love, self-esteem… that’s Satanism,” Crone said. The first law of Satanism, he notes, is simple: “Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the law.” Compare that with Jesus’ words: “Deny yourself, take up your cross, and follow Me.”

All of it—Freemasonry, seeker-friendly selfism and occult infiltration—points to apostasy. “Paul said the time would come when men in the church would not put up with sound doctrine,” Crone said, citing 2 Timothy. “They’ll become selfish, self-centered idiots. That’s how you know you’re in the last days.”

For Crone, the solution isn’t panic—it’s proclamation. “Get into the Bible,” he said. “Preach the Word in season and out. The whole counsel of God.”

Is President Donald Trump’s visit to Davos more about the spiritual realm than the physical one?

As the World Economic Forum is meeting in Davos, Switzerland, President Trump is expected to hold a ceremony on Thursday at the convention for the signing of the Board of Peace, signaling the second stage of his Gaza peace plan.

According to the Times of Israel, this ceremonial signing will take place at 10:30 a.m. on Thursday, with the official attendance number unknown at this time due to growing opposition from other countries that do not want this to backfire regarding the United Nations.

As the report noted, this Board of Peace is meant to help the restructuring of Gaza. However, the charter does not mention Gaza at all.

In the charter obtained by the Times of Israel, the organization reads:

The Board of Peace is an international organization that seeks to promote stability, restore dependable and lawful governance, and secure enduring peace in areas affected or threatened by conflict. The Board of Peace shall undertake such peace-building functions in accordance with international law and as may be approved in accordance with this Charter, including the development and dissemination of best practices capable of being applied by all nations and communities seeking peace.

The charter also mentions a succession plan for the chairman of the board, who is currently set to be Donald Trump.

The Chairman shall at all times designate a successor for the role of Chairman. Replacement of the Chairman may occur only following voluntary resignation or as a result of incapacity, as determined by a unanimous vote of the Executive Board, at which time the Chairman’s designated successor shall immediately assume the position of the Chairman and all associated duties and authorities of the Chairman.

Now that Davos is in full swing, Trump’s attendance at the Forum is expected to include the “largest U.S. delegation yet,” according to CNBC. His desire to acquire Greenland will also be center-stage, as other nations have not supported him in this cause.

In moments like these, it becomes increasingly clear that world affairs are not merely political maneuverings, but spiritual alignments. The Bible speaks of a coming world system in which nations and leaders will form alliances and structures that appear focused on peace, order, and global cooperation. et Scripture also warns that these very frameworks can become the scaffolding for a counterfeit peace and a centralized global authority (Dan. 8; Rev. 13).

As Trump unveils the Board of Peace in Davos — an institution not named after a nation, not tied to a border and not accountable to a public electorate — we are witnessing architecture that transcends normal diplomacy.

What makes this moment even more striking is that this Board of Peace contains 10 members — the same number that the prophet Daniel and the apostle John described as 10 kings who would rise together at the end of the age (Dan. 7:24; Rev. 17:12). These 10 kings are not necessarily crowned monarchs, but ruling authorities who will “receive power for one hour,” ultimately giving their strength to a greater leader yet to emerge.

Whether the Board of Peace fulfills that pattern or is simply a foreshadowing, the symbolism is unmistakable.

As the nations gather and scripts long written begin to play out, the church must remain alert, discerning the times, and remembering that while a counterfeit peace may rise, the true Prince of Peace will return to establish a kingdom that cannot be shaken.

Megachurch Pastor Michael Todd is firing back at comedian Druski’s viral megachurch skit that directly addressed some of the outlandish behaviors in the church, including at Todd’s Transformation Church.

In a recent message to his congregation, Todd said, “If you want to go forward, you cannot avoid…distraction.”

Todd then addressed the video specifically.

Pastor Mike Todd addresses Druski’s church skit saying it was all a distraction

“It was an attack on people’s life’s of distraction”

“There was a video that came out this past week with a few hundred million views, and some people were trying to link it to me,” he stated. “And so, I watched the video. It was hilarious. It was funny…and then people started trying to say different things, and the thing that I was most taken aback by was how much frustration it created in people.”

Todd says he saw people fighting online over the video’s content, calling it a distraction.

“Do you know how many people didn’t spend time with their kids this week, fighting with somebody they don’t know in the comments? Do you know how many people watched video after video after video, making decisions about what they wouldn’t do and what they will do? It was a distraction. There are people that did not do what God said to do this week because they needed to be in the know of what was happening in culture.”

To order Travis Johnson’s new book, (Un)Embarrassed of Jesus, visit Amazon.com.

He then stated that he did not think Druski’s video was an attack on the church, but rather an “attack on your focus.”

Todd says he didn’t even really know what was going on because he hadn’t been actively on social media. The specific claims against him, Todd simply laughed off.

“I don’t even got a Rolls-Royce,” he said. “The reason I couldn’t get distracted is because I’m building something.”

“The enemy is into releasing weapons of mass distraction,” Todd continued. “The thing you cannot avoid if you’re on this Christian journey is distraction.”

While the enemy undoubtedly uses distraction, Todd is missing something: this video shows how the world sees the church. The fact that the video resonated so profoundly with the culture is precisely because it reflected how the world already sees Christianity. Mockery may sting, but it’s also a mirror—and the church must be humble enough to ask why the world thinks this parody is an accurate portrait of us.

That is the part we cannot afford to ignore. If culture sees the church as performative, self-absorbed and entertainment-driven, then we have not represented the humility, holiness and burning love for souls that Jesus commanded.

Now more than ever, the church must repent of spectacle without substance, reject the shallow performances that feed caricatures and return to the gospel that still has the power to transform nations.

The world is watching—and how we respond will determine whether they keep mocking, or begin asking for the hope that is in us.

A prophetic word by Chuck Pierce is emerging across the body of Christ: we are no longer in the era we once knew. We have crossed into a new prophetic season defined not by ease, but by conflict — and yet, also by divine strategy for victory.

“We have entered into an era of conflict,” Pierce declared. “Every year has conflict, but the Lord is giving His people a strategy for breakthrough for these next three years.”

Conflict itself is not being removed. Instead, heaven is releasing the ability to rise, overcome and break through within it. “He’s not removing conflict, He is giving us a strategy for breakthrough in the midst of conflict,” he continues.

According to Pierce, this aligns with what many prophetic voices have sensed — that the shaking is not accidental and is not short-lived. As he puts it, whenever God ushers in a new era, there comes a targeted demonic resistance. “The enemy is vying for how he can stop God’s remnant from coming into its next level of fullness,” referencing Revelation 12. Yet even in the resistance, the Lord is releasing a new sound, new authority and new boldness in His people: “The Lord is saying, ‘I’m giving you a voice like you’ve never had before.’”

Pierce described this new season as a time of “atmospheric shifts,” where God’s people would confront and dethrone the “Goliaths” ruling over their environments. “Whatever Goliath is ruling your atmosphere, God’s positioning you right now to dethrone it.” This was not a figurative concept, but a prophetic assignment to take dominion over spiritual climates, cities and systems where the enemy had seeded intimidation or unbelief.

Additionally, the next three years were identified as a specific prophetic turnaround window tied to recovery, restoration and prosperity. “You have entered your time of recovery,” he declared, adding that “now you will enter your three-year turnaround completely.”

According to the word, this turnaround will coincide with the restoration of David’s Tabernacle — not just in praise and worship, but in territorial dominion. “David’s Tabernacle… goes down into even the layers of the earth… and I’m gonna cleanse the land over these next three years.”

This transition is not merely personal, but societal. “The military will come, the police force will come… the government will come,” Pierce continued.

We are entering days where the conflict will not diminish, but the glory resting on God’s people will increase. The church will not survive this era by retreating, complaining or waiting for circumstances to change; it will survive by taking dominion over the very atmospheres that once intimidated it.

Since he started his second term, President Donald Trump has tried everything to become the “peace president.” However, that image of world peace may finally be over.

In a Daily Mail report, it was noted that Trump wrote a letter to Norway’s Prime Minister, stating that he “no longer feels an obligation to think purely peace” since he was rejected for the Nobel Peace Prize.

As the report noted, President Trump is seeking control over Greenland, writing to Jonas Gahr Støre about his desire to see America acquire the land, believing that Denmark cannot protect it well from China and Russia.

Trump reportedly wrote, “‘I have done more for NATO than any other person since its founding, and now, NATO should do something for the United States…The world is not secure unless we have complete and total control of Greenland.”

The president continued, writing: “‘Dear Jonas: Considering your country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize for having stopped 8 Wars PLUS, I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of peace, although it will always be predominant, but can now think about what is good and proper for the United States of America…”

Trump further took to Truth Social, where he posted:

NATO has been telling Denmark, for 20 years, that “you have to get the Russian threat away from Greenland.” Unfortunately, Denmark has been unable to do anything about it. Now it is time, and it will be done!!! President Donald J. Trump

There is a growing sense that the world is entering a new and unpredictable chapter—one where alliances shift, borders blur, and the ambitions of nations collide on a geopolitical chessboard that feels increasingly biblical. Scripture tells us that wars and rumors of wars are not merely headlines but signposts, and we would be wise to discern them as such. As the stage is set for what could become a defining international drama, the Church must watch, pray, and refuse to sleep through this hour.

What unfolds next may determine far more than policy—it may shape the world’s trajectory in the days to come.

This week, the heavens are stirring.

Over the weekend, the Sun unleashed a powerful X-class solar flare, the strongest category of solar eruptions, accompanied by a massive coronal mass ejection (CME) racing directly toward Earth.

According to Space.com, the flare was measured as an X1.9 and has already caused R3-level radio blackouts across the sunlit side of the planet as the initial shockwaves hit.

Now the main CME—charged with magnetized plasma and intense energy—is expected to strike Earth within hours, raising the possibility of a geomagnetic storm, as NOAA categorizes it, from G3 to G4, considered strong to severe.

Meteorologists and space weather agencies are watching closely, because events like this not only light up the sky—they can shake the systems modern society depends on.

Northern Lights May Be Seen Far Beyond the Arctic

One of the more awe-inspiring signs of geomagnetic activity is the aurora borealis—and this time, the spectacle may appear far from its usual northern home.

The Sun reports that parts of the United Kingdom—including Scotland, Northern Ireland and northern England—may witness visible auroras in the hours following impact. In the United States, space weather observers say the storm may push auroras into multiple northern and midwestern states if the CME couples strongly with Earth’s magnetic field.

Local media in the Northeast have already fielded questions, with NorthJersey.com noting heightened interest as residents wonder if the rare display could be visible along the East Coast.

The Heavens Are Declaring Something

For believers, celestial disturbances are not merely scientific phenomena—they are reminders.

Scripture speaks of signs in the heavens preceding moments of shaking and transition:

“I will show wonders in the heavens above and signs on the earth below…”
—Acts 2:19

Throughout biblical history, unusual activity in the sky often coincided with warnings, awakenings or course corrections. While scientists frame this week’s solar eruption within the normal rhythms of Solar Cycle 25, which peaks between 2025 and 2026, spiritually discerning voices are asking whether more is at work than meets the eye.

At minimum, the moment is an invitation for the Church to remain watchful—not fearful, but awake and discerning. Jesus repeatedly urged His followers to pay attention to the signs, not to retreat from them.

As the solar storm arrives, the world will be looking up.

The question for believers is not merely what is happening, but why now, and what might God be saying through the heavens in this hour.

For many believers, the past few years have felt like a long tunnel of uncertainty—walking by faith without clarity on where God was leading. Prophetic voice Alwyn Uys is now declaring that this long transition is nearing its conclusion, and that 2026 marks a season of settling, purpose and answered questions.

In a recent message titled “Prophetic Word for those in Transition — Prepare for God’s Next Move!” Uys described how he first shared this word privately, but felt the Holy Spirit prompting him to make it public because of its urgency and relevance. “I felt that it is so impactful for people that have been feeling like you have been in this transition season of your life for maybe even a few years,” he said.

For him, this word is deeply personal. “I know for myself that I have definitely been in transition. It almost feels like I’m constantly going somewhere—that the Lord is constantly expanding and… moving around and getting me to the place where He wants me.”

A Prophetic Vision: From the Tunnel of 2025 to the Platform of 2026

As he prayed, he saw a vision of a train traveling on rails labeled 2025, emerging from a dark tunnel and coming to a stop at a station marked 2026. “I saw this train coming to a stop in a station… and there was a billboard over the station, and it was numbered 2026,” he shared.

The imagery conveyed that 2025 represented a year of movement without clarity—a year defined by questions, uncertainty and spiritual stretching. “2025 was a moving out of this dark tunnel… of not knowing exactly where you are,” he explained, adding that many felt suspended in a state of waiting. “So many people had a lot of questions in 2025… a season of confusion, a season of uncertainty.”

Yet through every moment of uncertainty, there was a guiding light. “There was always a light at the end of the tunnel… the Lord just kept you on a string, just leading you, asking you to trust Him.”

2026: A Season of Landing, Belonging and Purpose

According to the word, 2026 will be a year where God’s purpose becomes visible—where things that didn’t make sense suddenly do.

“I feel like through this imagery in 2026, it was like a landing spot,” he said. “It’s now time to plant your roots. It’s now time to settle down.”

He described it as a “graduation and celebration” moment, where believers will look back and say: “Yes, Lord, that is what You have been doing all along.”

At one point he heard the Holy Spirit speak directly:

“My people are coming to a place where I have led them… through the wilderness, through the darkness, through the tunnel. I’m bringing them to a place where they should land. No more moving, end of transition.”

A surprising word also surfaced during the encounter: vagabond. Not knowing the meaning, he looked it up and found it described “someone that moves around seemingly without direction.” He sensed the Lord saying that He is ending that season for many. “You will no longer be a vagabond,” he said. “He’s bringing you to a place of belonging… a place of purpose and clarity.”

As we are now in full swing of 2026, Uys’ message is clear: the tunnel is behind us, the station is ahead and God is preparing His people not just to move, but to arrive.

Bestselling author and prophetic voice Jonathan Cahn is sounding a serious alarm for what’s ahead in 2026.

Calling this year one of the most consequential spiritual crossroads in modern American history, Cahn believes the United States has entered a brief and fragile window of mercy—and what believers do next will determine the nation’s fate for decades to come.

“This is going to be my first word for 2026,” Cahn said at the opening of his message. “And I believe this is going to be a critical year, a year of crucial importance. And what we do or what we don’t do is not only going to determine what happens this year, but what will happen for years to come.”

A Window of Reprieve—But Not for Long

According to Cahn, America has recently experienced what he describes as a divine reversal—a pulling back of what he calls an “anti-biblical agenda” that had swept through nearly every major sector of national influence.

“We had an anti-biblical agenda that was taking virtually over every major institution of our culture,” he said, pointing to education, entertainment, medical institutions, corporations and government agencies. “We were on the verge of a cultural takeover, a new kind of totalitarianism.”

But following the 2024 election, Cahn argues that cultural and political momentum dramatically shifted: “There’s been a massive rollback, a massive rolling back of this agenda that was taking over our country.”

Still, he insists this shift is temporary—and conditional.

The Jehu Template and the Role of Trump

In one of his most striking claims, Cahn again draws parallels between President Donald Trump and the biblical figure Jehu from 2 Kings—an anointed but unconventional leader raised up to confront entrenched national apostasy.

“If you want to understand what Trump is to America and what the Trump years mean for America… you have to understand Jehu,” he explained. “Jehu was wild, unpredictable, uncontrollable… not a politician. He was a fighter. Trump, same thing.”

According to Cahn, Jehu’s rise bought ancient Israel time, pushing back idolatry and moral rebellion. But the reprieve was short-lived, as the nation ultimately did not return to God.

“When Jehu’s reign was over, the nation resumed its downward fall to apostasy and ultimately to judgment,” Cahn warned. “If we change the government but we don’t change the people… the unchanged people are going to change the government back.”

Why 2026 Matters: ‘The Window Will Close’

Cahn says the approaching midterm cycle represents a decisive hinge point: not only for current policies, but for whether this reprieve collapses entirely.

“This year is going to mark the midpoint of this… window,” he noted. “Anything can happen in the midterms… and after the midterm, Trump will be viewed as a lame duck presidency.”

Cahn cautions that cultural battles are far from over. “The war hasn’t stopped, and it won’t stop in any true way unless there’s revival,” he said.

Not Political—Spiritual: ‘Revival Is the Only Hope’

Above all, Cahn insists the crisis facing America cannot be solved through elections or policy alone.

“America’s ultimate problem is spiritual—turning away from God. And only a spiritual answer can save it,” he said. “Revival is the only thing that can save America. It’s not a nice thing. It’s the only thing.”

He issues a nationwide challenge to believers: “We have this window. We don’t know if we’re ever going to have this window again. If we squander this moment by becoming comfortable or apathetic, we’ll be back there again—and more so.”

Cahn specifically urges daily prayer for revival, repentance within the Church, evangelism and personal consecration: “Pray every day for national revival. Parents pray in your house. Pastors, charge your people to pray. Lead in prayers for revival.”

A Call to Personal Repentance

Before closing the message, Cahn goes from national warning to deeply personal exhortation: “Don’t just pray for revival—start living in revival. Whatever is in your life that shouldn’t be there, get it out… whatever God has called for your life that you’re not rising to, rise to it this year.”

He concludes with Scripture from Isaiah 55: “Seek the Lord while He may be found… call upon Him while He is near… let the unrighteous person abandon his thoughts and let him return to the Lord, and He will have compassion.”

A Defining Year

For Cahn, the stakes could not be higher: “On this year hangs the future of America. And on America hangs the future of the world.”

Whether 2026 becomes a year of renewal or a year of sealing judgment, he argues, will depend not on Washington—but on the church.

Are we seeing the end of Christianity in America?

A new study by Lifeway Research found that more Protestant churches closed than opened in 2024.

As Lifeway noted, in 2024, 3,800 new Protestant churches opened in the United States while 4,000 closed. This follows a similar trend from 2019, when 3,000 churches were opened and 4,500 closed. The data collected by Lifeway surveyed 35 denominations, representing 58% of all Protestant churches in the nation.

Scott McConnell, the executive director of Lifeway Research noted that “Given recent declines in Americans identifying as Christians, churches show a remarkable ability to remain open, even with fewer attendees on average.”

Ed Stetzer, dean of the Talbot School of Theology at Biola University, highlighted the importance of church planting for Kingdom growth.

To order Chuck Pierce’s new book, Perspective, visit Amazon.com.

“Simply put, without church planting, every denomination that’s growing would be shrinking, and every denomination that’s shrinking would be shrinking more,” he said. “Church planting is the most significant engine for evangelistic growth that we have in the world today.”

Something concerning that Lifeway pointed to was that: “Even among those who believe their churches have an extended future, some are concerned. Fewer than 4 in 5 (78%) strongly agree they expect their church to have at least another decade.”

The numbers may be sobering, but they should not be paralyzing. If anything, they reveal a solemn truth: cultural Christianity cannot save a nation. Buildings, branding and programs alone cannot preserve the faith. What America needs is not a better marketing strategy — it requires a church that is actually the church. A church that preaches Christ crucified. A church that is unashamed of the gospel and unwilling to silence itself to fit cultural trends. When the apostles faced opposition, they did not shrink back; they proclaimed the resurrection with greater boldness. The same call rests on us now.

The solution to declining churches is not to abandon the mission — it is to return to it.

If Christianity in America is to survive the pressures of secularism and cultural apathy, then believers must rise from complacency. The Great Commission was never meant to be passive. Jesus told us to go, to preach the gospel to all nations, to make disciples, and to baptize others in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

If America is witnessing the fading spark of Christian witness, now is the hour to fan it into flame. The church is not meant to decline when the world gets darker; we are meant to shine brighter.

It is time once again for the church to preach Christ, to love boldly, to disciple intentionally and to bring the good news to a nation that desperately needs it.

Are we literally witnessing the end times revelation right in front of our eyes?

President Donald Trump announced the members of his Board of Peace, who will help oversee the restructuring of Gaza. The announcement came in a White House statement. Trump is set to act as the chairman of the board.

The White House wrote:

To operationalize the Board of Peace’s vision—under the chairmanship of President Donald J. Trump—a founding Executive Board has been formed, composed of leaders with experience across diplomacy, development, infrastructure, and economic strategy. The appointed members are:

• Secretary Marco Rubio
• Steve Witkoff
• Jared Kushner
• Sir Tony Blair
• Marc Rowan
• Ajay Banga
• Robert Gabriel

Along with these initial members, others on this prestigious board include:

…appointed Aryeh Lightstone and Josh Gruenbaum as senior advisors to the Board of Peace, charged with leading day-to-day strategy and operations, and translating the Board’s mandate and diplomatic priorities into disciplined execution.

H.E. Nickolay Mladenov, an Executive Board member, will serve as the High Representative for Gaza. In this capacity, he will act as the on-the-ground link between the Board of Peace and the NCAG. He will support the Board’s oversight of all aspects of Gaza’s governance, reconstruction, and development, while ensuring coordination across civilian and security pillars.

These 10 members, plus Trump, are set to make up the core of this group. However, for a price, Trump is willing to let more join the board with lifetime memberships.

According to the Jerusalem Post, the Trump administration has stated that any nation seeking permanent membership on the Board of Peace must contribute “at least one billion dollars,” as reported by Bloomberg.

The Post also reported via Bloomberg that the countries on the board are not to serve for more than three years. Of course, this would “not apply to Member States that contribute more than $1,000,000,000 in cash funds to the Board of Peace within the first year of the Charter’s entry into force.”

The Bible warns that a time would come when the nations would seek “peace and security” in the Middle East, only for sudden destruction to follow (1 Thess. 5:3). Scripture speaks of a future world order where ten rulers arise and play a role in establishing a global peace framework in the final days (Dan. 7, Rev. 17) before ultimately handing over their power to a charismatic world leader—known in Scripture as the Antichrist.

Whether Trump’s Board of Peace is the final manifestation or merely a precursor, the biblical contours are unmistakable: 10 influential seats, Middle East diplomacy, global financing and a new international order forming over Israel’s borders.

If Revelation is a roadmap, then the world is not drifting away from biblical prophecy—it is marching directly toward it.
