Uys described a vision he received during a community prayer session: a large eagle hovering over a nest filled with baby eagles. “They were feeding from this bigger eagle,” he recalled. “And I got these words that… the Holy Spirit was saying, ‘I have fed you for a long time. I have taught you everything and you know how to fly. Now is the time to fly.’”
The message struck a deeply prophetic chord: the season of preparation is over, and the time to take action has arrived. “You already know how to fly. Even though it doesn’t feel that way, even though you’re still sitting in the nest and you’re asking the Lord, ‘When is it time to take the leap?’… now is the time to step out in faith and take flight.”
Uys continued with a personal reflection, recalling a word given to him years ago during a prophetic meeting. “He made it so simple. He said, ‘Stop asking permission to take flight. You already have everything.’”
To reinforce the calling, Uys pointed to 1 Kings 19:19 and the moment Elijah called Elisha by placing his cloak over him. “That was a huge turning point in his life, in his ministry, in his calling,” Uys said. “It was the calling of God being affirmed—that now is the time to leave everything behind… and follow the calling of God.”
He reminded his audience that this kind of faith can be daunting, but God is not sending anyone alone. “As you take the leap of faith… His presence will be with you,” he said. “And I just get this strong sense that so many people around you will be able to see that God is with that one. God is with her. God is with him.”
For anyone feeling unsure, Uys offered one final affirmation from the heart of the Father: “He is so proud of you for how far you’ve come, for how you’ve trusted Him, how you’ve so obediently listened to His voice… All in the name of obedience unto the Holy Spirit.”
As June unfolds, the time to rise is now.
“Take flight,” he said. “You already have everything.”

Prophetic Voices Warn of Global Spiritual Decline
In a recent video posted to the Prophecy Watchers YouTube channel, Mondo Gonzales and Brandon Holthaus warned of a deepening global spiritual crisis and a growing wave of antisemitism, particularly in Western nations such as Australia, New Zealand and the United States.
“Whatever we think we have it bad here, it is way worse really in Australia, in New Zealand, even in the UK,” Gonzales said, describing the spiritual condition of churches abroad. “They have a tough time even finding a church that preaches the Gospel at all.”
Gonzales noted that many congregations abroad are embracing what he called “wokeism,” “feel-good” and “seeker-sensitive” teachings, with some falling into the “prosperity gospel.” He recalled one faithful American pastor in Melbourne who leads a small, biblically grounded church: “He came out and said, ‘Hey, this is what I teach—the word of God. I teach prophecy.’”
As churches abandon biblical foundations, Gonzales warned that a dangerous spiritual vacuum is emerging. “The occult is becoming very strong there. Really, I mean, psychic, psychic, psychic all the way around. He’s like, ‘You have no idea.’”
Holthaus and Gonzales also highlighted a dramatic shift in political attitudes toward Israel. “They’re going to recognize the Palestinian state,” Gonzales said of Australia and New Zealand’s leadership. “They have gone very much away from the Christian roots… even the history of support for the Jewish people as a homeland.”
The conversation shifted to what Gonzales described as a new, irrational wave of global antisemitism following the October 7 Hamas terror attacks in Israel. “You would think that October 7th would provide an increased level of sympathy and compassion… It shockingly, ironically… it’s been the opposite,” he said. “Anti-semitism as we know—protests around the world have increased exponentially.”
Gonzales called this new form of antisemitism “irrational” and “spiritual,” pointing to groups like LGBTQ activists supporting pro-Hamas ideologies despite their values being starkly incompatible. “There’s a spiritual blindness there.”
The rise in hatred, Gonzales said, aligns with biblical prophecy. “The purpose of the tribulation period, Daniel 12:7, is to shatter the power of the holy people… this hatred and his ability to murder them specifically during the second half of the tribulation is part of the purpose.”
Still, he emphasized, “God’s heart is for Israel. His heart is to reach them… He sent the Philistines in the book of Judges to oppress Israel in their times of rebellion… What we’re watching is absolutely part of the prophetic trends.”

Mario Murillo Issues a Prophetic Warning, a Spiritual Showdown Coming to America
In a fiery message delivered under a revival tent in Texas, evangelist Mario Murillo declared a prophetic warning for the nation in his sermon titled “What is Next for America?”
Murillo said that a supernatural event is coming to America that will “render two groups of people obsolete.” According to him, “Events are going to start happening that are both spiritual and demonic,” and even “doctors will be forced to admit it’s real.” These phenomena, he warned, will no longer be deniable as they unfold publicly, even “on university campuses, and on the news.”
First on Murillo’s list of the obsolete: atheists. “It will be impossible to say the supernatural isn’t real,” he said. “That day is now over, because the Devil is in a new mode and no longer trying to hide.” Quoting Revelation 12:12, he said, “Woe to the inhabitants of the earth and the sea! For the devil has come down to you, having great wrath, because he knows that he has a short time.”
Next, Murillo warned that “non-supernatural churches will be rendered obsolete.” Addressing pastors, he urged, “You better start allowing gifts of the Spirit to operate in your church,” including “speaking in tongues, prophesying, casting out devils, and laying hands on the sick.”
He issued a blunt rebuke to cessationist theology and charismatic excess alike. “We have worshipped ministries that do exotic and wild things because we have turned the moving the Spirit into a carnival,” he said. “We need to get rid of the sideshow and have Jesus move in power.”
A Time of Division and Deception
Murillo quoted David Wilkerson, saying, “The greatest crime in modern ministry is that we have allowed the fact that people abuse the gifts of the Spirit, to be our excuse to ban them.” He warned, “You are as guilty of hurting the church as any false evangelist” if you reject the gifts due to their misuse.
What’s ahead, he cautioned, is a war inside the church itself. “There will be a new breed of backslider,” he said. “These backsliders will be unsaved, not knowing God, but they will still be in the church to undermine the work.”
Citing 2 Timothy, Murillo said this deception would be subtle and disguised as religion: “They will act religious, but they will reject the power that could make them godly. Stay away from people like that!” (2 Timothy 3:5 NLT).
As opposition intensifies against conservatives, patriots and Christians, Murillo emphasized the urgency: “God revealed that the church has three and a half years to wake up, unify, get on fire, and begin speaking out.”
But his message came with a stark political disclaimer: “Donald Trump and the Republican Party are not going to save this nation, it’s already too late. So there’s one thing left … God’s got an army!”
For Murillo, God has a clear path for the church moving forward: “Unity, particularly unity in the church and between churches. Unity throughout the body of Christ. The answer is the destruction of division.”
In the closing moments, Murillo issued a direct call to the crowd, to stand, to raise their hands, to come forward and be saved. Because in his words, the battle is not just coming, it’s already begun.

The Nations Gather Against Israel, Just as Prophecy Told Us
The United Nations will host an international conference from June 17 to 20 at its headquarters in New York, co-chaired by France and Saudi Arabia, aimed at reviving the long-discussed two-state solution between Israel and the Palestinians.
According to The Times of Israel, the conference originates from a resolution passed by the UN General Assembly in December and seeks to encourage further recognition of Palestinian statehood. A Paris-based diplomat involved in the planning said the event is expected to “pave the way for more countries to recognize a full-blown Palestinian state.”
That effort has already gained traction. In May 2024, Ireland, Norway, and Spain officially recognized a Palestinian state, provoking strong backlash from Israel. French President Emmanuel Macron further inflamed tensions when he announced in April that “Paris could recognize a Palestinian state in the coming months,” possibly during the upcoming conference. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu responded by calling it a “huge prize for terror.”
While Macron expressed hope that the conference might lead to “a recognition of Israel from states that currently do not,” Israel remains unconvinced and unyielding in its opposition to a Palestinian state. Netanyahu’s coalition has instead seen increasing support for annexation of the West Bank, territory Israel captured during the 1967 Six Day War.
Meanwhile, the once-promising push for normalization between Israel and Saudi Arabia has evaporated in the wake of the Oct. 7, 2023, Hamas attacks.
As The Times of Israel reports, “Riyadh has since conditioned normalization on a pathway to Palestinian statehood,” a nonstarter for Netanyahu’s administration.
As the world moves toward greater recognition of a Palestinian state and increased pressure on Israel, we are witnessing a prophetic alignment that Scripture warned us would come.
Zechariah 12:3 says, “On that day, when all the nations of the earth are gathered against her, I will make Jerusalem an immovable rock for all the nations.” What we’re seeing isn’t just political maneuvering, it’s a foreshadowing of what’s to come.
As biblical prophecy continues to unfold, we can expect the tide of antisemitism and global opposition to rise. The world will not rally around Israel — it will stand against her. But God’s promises stand eternal, and He is not finished with Israel.
What we are witnessing today is just a prelude to what has already been written.
“Every single child of God has a calling on their life,” Bevere said in a recent episode of his podcast “The John Bevere Podcast” alongside his son Ardan. “Now with these callings, OK, so let’s say I’m called to the marketplace or let’s say I’m called to education. God gives supernatural gifts to accomplish them.”
But for many, those gifts may feel buried or even non-existent. Bevere is quick to remind people that God’s assignments don’t always align with human strengths. “Our calling is beyond our natural ability,” he said. “Because if God made our calling so that we could accomplish it in our own ability, we’d have to share the glory with Him. And God says, ‘I’m not sharing my glory with anybody.’”
In fact, Bevere shared that writing was once his weakest subject. “It used to take me four hours to write a one-page paper,” he said. “English, creative writing, foreign language was my absolute worst subject in high school.” But God had other plans. “Two women came to me from two different states in the United States within two weeks of each other… They both said the exact same thing. They said, ‘John, if you don’t write what God’s given you to write, He’ll give the message to somebody else and one day you’ll stand in judgment for it.’”
That moment marked a turning point in his life—and a lesson he now shares with others seeking their spiritual purpose. “We have access to the grace of God through faith,” Bevere said, quoting Romans 5:2. “It’s God’s free unearned empowerment that gives us the ability to go beyond our natural ability.”
For those unsure of where to begin, Bevere encourages seeking God diligently. “The thing we’ve got to do is seek Him,” he said. “God gives supernatural gifts to accomplish what we’ve been created to do.”
And if you haven’t discovered yours yet, don’t be discouraged. “Sometimes our giftings, we’re born with them. Sometimes they come on us when God speaks to us.”
The key, Bevere stressed, is simply being willing. “Are you going to self-promote with your gift? Or are you going to walk the path that God puts before you?”

Why Are Christians Turning Against Israel?
Joel Rosenberg isn’t sugarcoating the spiritual crisis brewing within evangelical circles.
“We all agree that it is absolutely sickening that secular young people, unchurched young people, are turning against Israel and against the Jewish people,” Rosenberg said. “But why are kids raised in Christian homes and in Christian churches—why are they being swayed by these lies?”
Rosenberg laid out what he calls seven reasons for this shift, warning, “These are not reasons that are going to be easy for some of us to hear.” Below are the first two, with the remaining five to be addressed in future episodes.
1. Parents and Grandparents Aren’t Teaching the Truth
Rosenberg points first to the breakdown of biblical education at home.
“The first and most important reason that evangelical young people are turning against Israel is because their parents and grandparents are not carefully, consistently, and intentionally passing on what they know and what they believe from the Bible about God’s love for Israel and the Jewish people.”
He quoted Romans 10:14-15, applying it beyond the gospel message: “How can anyone believe in solid biblical theological truths if they haven’t been taught those truths?”
Referencing Jeremiah 31, Rosenberg reminded listeners, “The Lord appeared to him to Israel from afar, saying ‘I have loved you with an everlasting love. Therefore, I have drawn you with loving kindness.’” He stressed that many children simply aren’t hearing these passages at home.
“The second most important reason that young evangelicals are turning against Israel: well, it’s because they’re not getting solid biblical teaching about Israel and the Jewish people at church,” Rosenberg said.
He noted that while some pastors teach through Scripture faithfully, “many pastors prefer to teach a series of hot topics rather than teaching through a book of the Bible.” This, he warned, makes it easy to skip foundational truths such as the Abrahamic covenant and the prophetic history of Israel.
Even when solid teaching happens in the main service, Rosenberg said the youth often miss it entirely: “Most kids aren’t sitting in the main service… they’re getting a very different, a totally different diet of teaching.”
Rosenberg concluded the segment with a challenge: “Don’t completely outsource what your kids and grandkids are learning about the Bible to your church. The church is a very important place… but your home is the most important place for them to learn.”

This Actor Refused to Compromise in Hollywood, Now He’s Making Films That Glorify God
Hollywood actor Neal McDonough is known for his villains, but his latest project rides in with something very different: purpose.
“This was… a gift from above,” McDonough said of the film, which he not only stars in, but also helped write. “Write a film, Rocky on a bull, that you have to go back and save your grandson. You have to go back and ride again to save your grandson because he’s dying of the same brain tumor that your wife died of.” He added, “Within 24 hours, I came up with a kind of an outline… within a week, we had the first draft done. And a week later, we had it sold.”
For McDonough, the rapid timeline wasn’t just luck. “This is divine intervention… that doesn’t happen. That never happens. You know that’s a miracle.”
Standing Firm in Hollywood
McDonough has long made headlines for his refusal to do sex scenes or on-screen kisses, a stance that cost him dearly. “Because I wouldn’t kiss a woman in that show years ago… I got blackballed and then they took—you know, I lost my house and I lost everything.” He continued, “That kind of crucifixion was maybe the greatest gift that I’ve ever gotten in my life as a man.”
Following that season of brokenness, McDonough said he spiraled into alcoholism. “I had a massive drinking problem. I just drank myself silly for two years because I couldn’t get a job. I was bankrupt. I lost everything.”
The Last Rodeo is more than a cowboy movie. It’s a family story at heart, crafted with a message of redemption, love and perseverance. “There aren’t a lot of films out there anymore where you can bring the whole family to it, not have to cover eyes or ears… The whole family gets to go see a film, be entertained, and at the end of [it] make you realize, okay, what am I prepared to do to help my family?”
Asked what he hopes viewers walk away with, McDonough said, “Life can be amazing if we have a little faith… Anyone can get through any problem if they have faith.”
And for McDonough, that’s not just faith in God, but in the small, everyday decisions to do good. “If I’m living by examples, if I’m doing the right thing, people notice.”
Now producing his eleventh project in four years with his wife and partner Ruve, McDonough has found success not by compromising, but by standing strong. “I love telling great stories and now I get to tell great stories that entertain people that give glory to God. Wow. Wow. I mean, what more could you ask for?”

How to Discern the Demonic and Disrupt the Devil’s Plans
In a recent episode of Devil Busters, Dr. Kevin Zadai tackled one of the most overlooked aspects of spiritual warfare: the reality of parallel realms and how believers can exercise their God-given authority to detect and defeat demonic interference in everyday life.
Zadai began by grounding his teaching in Scripture, reminding viewers of the spiritual battlefield described in Ephesians 6. “‘Put on the full armor of God that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil,’” he quoted. “The word ‘wiles,’ if you look it up, it means battle strategies.”
Zadai stressed that believers don’t need special prophetic gifts to detect demonic activity; they need discernment and boldness. “We may be ignorant,” he admitted, “but we are not supposed to be ignorant of Satan’s devices.”
A key point in Zadai’s message was that believers don’t have to go looking for the devil. Like Jesus, “He was on his way to heal people… and on his way, he would encounter the devil.” Instead, Zadai instructed, “Just walk in your authority and mess the devil up everywhere you go.”
That authority, he said, comes from Jesus, and it’s not contingent on feeling spiritual or having dramatic encounters. “You can just use your authority and stomp your foot, and if there’s anything around, it’s going to respond.”
What the Devil Doesn’t Want You to Know
Zadai spoke in detail about the unseen realm operating around us—a realm that science can now confirm in part. “Visible light is one-sixth of light,” he explained. “So there’s still five-sixths left that’s not visible to the eye. That’s because of the fall.”
He believes that demonic entities function in these unseen spectrums. “The enemy really relies on the fact that he is cloaked and not seen with a physical eye.” But believers can detect their presence through spiritual discernment and by refusing to give the enemy a voice. “If I feel fear, I don’t say anything out of fear. If I sense something out of doubt, I don’t give voice to that. This is the way you mess up these devils.”
Zadai also warned that demons need human cooperation to manifest. “He needs people… witches and warlocks. He has to have wills involved.”
Command, Don’t Converse
Zadai closed the session with practical instruction. “If you want to mess the devil up,” he said, “command those evil spirits not to manifest. Don’t give them a voice.”
He also led viewers in a prayer of deliverance, declaring: “I break the power of the enemy over you right now in the area of control. I command that that parallel realm to be ineffective… in the name of Jesus, you are set free.”
Zadai’s parting challenge was direct: “Just remember there is a parallel realm and that those evil spirits are not allowed to manifest in Jesus name.”

Amanda Grace: DC Attack Is a Prophetic Warning, and a Sacrifice on a Dark Altar
Prophetic voice Amanda Grace is warning that the recent killing of two Israeli embassy staffers outside the Capital Jewish Museum in Washington, D.C., wasn’t just an isolated act of violence, it was a spiritual sacrifice empowered by high-level demonic altars hidden in plain sight across the capital.
“This is far greater than that,” Grace said during a recent livestream. “Because it’s being powered, I believe, by altars in the kingdom of darkness.” She called the event an “announcement” — not just an act of terror, but a spiritual threshold being crossed.
“This ancient spirit… had legal rights to influence this man… to kill the people of Yahweh,” she said.
Blood on the hands of leadership
The suspect, Elias Rodriguez, a 31-year-old from Chicago, allegedly fired 21 shots, a number Grace said “is not an accident.” “Twenty-one is a number the occult uses,” she said, pointing to its ties to gambling and drinking. “That number is used a lot.”
She didn’t hold back in holding public officials accountable. “The blood is on the hands of the D.C. mayor right now,” she said. “It is your policies that have allowed this wickedness to grow and to advance in your city.”
Grace accused Washington leadership of enabling demonic power structures: “Make no mistake — the D.C. mayor has set up altars, and not to Almighty God.”
Altars in disguise: how they work
According to Grace, the kingdom of darkness operates through a complex altar system that still functions across America. “Altars need innocent blood to be powered,” she said. “And this is what is happening.”
“People build altars to things all the time. They just call them by a different name,” she added, citing government buildings, award shows, social media platforms and even abortion clinics as modern altars.
“These altars are not made of wood and stone anymore,” she said. “They’re masked and wrapped on the outside with covers of entertainment, ceremonies and politics.”
Prophetic symbolism in the names
Grace drew attention to the prophetic significance in the names involved in the attack. “The man’s name is Elias, which is a variant of Elijah, meaning ‘my God is Yahweh.’” Yet this man, she said, “was used to kill a Jewish couple that actually serves Yahweh. This is how the enemy works… this is all about mocking God and the people of God.”
The male victim’s name, Yaron, means “full of joy,” which she said carried prophetic weight. “This is a warning of the persecuting spirit that is bringing an outcry in this hour.”
Altars and government power struggles
Grace made a clear link between the operation of these spiritual altars and political power plays in America.
“There is not only a Jehu anointing on President Trump, but it’s coming upon the church,” she said, referring to the biblical figure Jehu who tore down altars and executed judgment on the house of Ahab. “You’re going to see the Acts church arise in the midst of this.”
“Forty-fifth president, four plus five is nine. Forty-seventh, four plus seven is 11. Nine, eleven. Second Kings, chapters nine through 11. This is how I know these high places and altars in this nation are being fought over.”
‘This is about an altar that wanted a sacrifice’
In perhaps the most sobering portion of the broadcast, Grace said plainly, “This is about altars and powering them in order to try to open a gate in Washington, D.C., that will allow for a hostile takeover within these next four years. I’m not saying God’s going to allow it. I’m saying this is what they’re attempting to do.”
“This is a time of reckoning. This is a time the enemy is repositioning,” she warned. “An altar that wanted a sacrifice in order to strengthen a position for the enemy for a greater attack that is coming.”
The church must go deeper
Grace urged the church to awaken to the reality of these spiritual systems and start engaging with deeper discernment.
“You cannot fight a spiritual war legally on grounds of intellectualism,” she said. “It doesn’t work. The church cannot be like Saul’s army quaking before Goliath.”
She believes we are in a “season of excavation” where “the fire of the Holy Spirit and the weighty conviction of truth” must fall on the church.
“Alters that are meant to be destructive to the purposes of God are being torn down. This is the time for them to be torn down,” she said.
The call to intercession
“This, what happened in Washington, D.C., is a product of this,” Grace explained. “And when we can recognize it, we can intercede for that altar to be torn down.”
Her call is simple but urgent: “We as the church have the power and authority to intercede, to expose it. And that is what we need to do.”

Prophecy in Motion: Today’s Unrest Points to Biblical End Times
The Middle East continues to boil with conflict, and according to Christian journalist Erick Stakelbeck, it’s not just geopolitics, it’s prophecy unfolding in real time.
Appearing on a recent episode of Joseph Z’s broadcast, Stakelbeck, host of The Watchman on TBN, warned that current events surrounding Israel are aligning with the biblical narrative.
“If you look at a map, Israel is literally geographically the center of the world. And Jerusalem is the center of that center,” Stakelbeck said. “Jesus will return to Jerusalem. He’ll set his foot down on the Mount of Olives.”
Citing Ezekiel and Isaiah, Stakelbeck said Iran, Turkey and Russia appear to be aligning in a way that sets the stage for the “Gog-Magog invasion.”
“I think we’re seeing things set up for that right now,” he said. “A lot of people have been talking about Isaiah 17 and perhaps the future demise of Damascus, one of the world’s oldest inhabited cities.”
He pointed to the growing hostilities on Israel’s borders, Hezbollah, Hamas and the Iranian-backed Houthis, as signs of prophetic convergence.
“The prophetic time clock right now, Joseph, I believe, is in overdrive,” he said.
Stakelbeck also addressed the global surge in antisemitism that followed the October 7 Hamas terror attacks. “The day after October 7th—literally, Joseph, on October 8th—before Israel even mounted its response… we had anti-Israel protests breaking out on the streets of western cities,” he said.
“I think something demonic, clearly something demonic was unleashed on October 7th vis-a-vis Israel, Hamas and Iran. But I think in a larger sense, that demonic anti-Semitic spirit was unleashed [in a] more profound way, including here in America.”
According to Stakelbeck, this is not just an issue for Jews, it’s a spiritual war that implicates all Bible-believing Christians. “It always starts with the Jews. But it never ends with the Jews. First the Saturday people, the Jews, then the Sunday people, the Christians,” he said.
He added that both radical Islamic jihadists and the atheistic left carry the same hatred for the God of Israel, describing it as “the spirit of Antichrist.”
And as for America’s role, he believes President Donald Trump’s return could be prophetically significant.
“President Trump’s return to office is a part of this as well in terms of him. The moves he’s making in the Middle East will… set things up for good certainly for Israel, for America, for the free world in the short term. But in the long term, I think Iran will be looking for revenge.”
In a time of uncertainty, Stakelbeck urged Christians to stay alert to what God is doing.
“If we want to know what’s going on, just walk around with a newspaper in one hand and the Bible in the other,” he said, quoting Billy Graham. “Today, it will probably be your phone in one hand and the Bible in the other, but it’s all unfolding right now.”
