The Holy Spirit Gave Me a Prophetic Prayer for Tucker Carlson
Recently I had the honor of being interviewed by Amanda Grace on her popular podcast. I believe she is a prophetic voice to our generation. We talked about many things including my new book “Spirit-led Living in an Upside-Down World.” She told me she had a dream about Tucker Carlson, then on Fox News, adding that there is “a bigger assignment against him from the enemy.” She said Christians must be united to pray for him right now because “something big was about to happen.”
Just then I felt a prompting from the Holy Spirit to pray for Carlson. Little did I know that this was a prophetic moment as Carlson would soon be let go by Fox News a few days later.
I suggested we stop and pray for Carlson right then on her livestream. Over the years I’ve found that it is only by a life truly submitted and led by the Holy Spirit that one can survive in perilous times.
Titan Sub Incident Highlights Moral Decline and Need for Spiritual Renewal
Chicago Pastor Marcus Rogers from Firehouse Church has issued a poignant warning to Christians, drawing attention to the intense spiritual warfare prevailing in today’s world.
The recent incident involving the OceanGate Titan submarine’s exploration of the Titanic has sparked concerns regarding the prophesied end times and the imperative of turning toward God. As believers, our Christian worldview significantly influences our perception of the world, underscoring the necessity of prayer for a lost and troubled society.
Rogers points to a step-son of one of the deceased from the OceanGate tragedy attending a rock concert as a symptom of society placing priority in one’s self and personal desires over what is moral and good.
Persecution Intensifies in China With Mandatory Worship App
In a troubling development, it has been alleged that the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is testing a new app that demands citizens pre-register before attending religious services, further restricting religious freedom.
The Voice of the Martyrs, a persecution watchdog, revealed the CCP has rolled out an app in Henan province, requiring individuals to seek approval through the app in order to attend any kind of religious gathering. Todd Nettleton, Chief of Media Relations for The Voice of the Martyrs, explained that citizens must provide personal information, including their identity, address and ID details, to the Chinese government through the app.
The approval process is limited to churches registered with the CCP, leaving house churches and unsanctioned gatherings with no opportunity to obtain permission.
