In his recent interview with Charisma Media, Pastor Troy Brewer painted a vivid picture of what he believes lies ahead for the church and the world as we move from 2024 into 2025. His reflections on 2024 as the “Year of the Open Door” and his vision for 2025 as the “Year of the Open Window” carry profound implications for believers seeking to understand the times.
Reflecting on 2024, Brewer described it as a year marked by unprecedented opportunities and invitations from the Lord. “2024 has been a time of God opening doors for us to step into His plans,” Brewer says, referencing key prophetic events such as the Great American Eclipse. He pointed out the eclipse’s connection to breakthroughs for the United States and Israel, specifically citing the fall of the Iranian president 40 days after the celestial event.

But while 2024 brought an invitation, Brewer warns that 2025 brings something far more consequential. “2025 is not about us stepping into God’s plans; it’s about God invading our space. It’s the ‘Year of the Open Window,’ where heaven begins to pour out blessings, judgments and interventions,” he explains.
At the heart of Brewer’s vision for 2025 is a sobering call to repentance. He outlines three specific sins within the church that he says God will judge severely:
- Blood money and corruption. Brewer cautions that financial exploitation and misuse of resources in ministry are offenses God will no longer tolerate.
- Sexual exploitation and abuse of power. The pastor calls out the abuse of authority in the church, particularly in relationships, as a grave issue.
- Child abuse, including trafficking. Brewer’s ministry rescued 11,000 children from trafficking in 2024, and he stresses that these atrocities are a critical focus for God’s judgment.
“The time for ignoring these sins is over. God is calling us to clean house,” Brewer declares.
He also tied these points to the prophetic significance of the altar in 2025. “The word for altar in the Hebrew lexicon is linked to 2025. It’s time to return to authentic worship and build altars that honor God,” he says, emphasizing the need for sacrifice and genuine devotion.
For Brewer, the church’s response is crucial. “We have to align ourselves with God’s side,” he urged. “Fasting, praying and addressing the issues of pornography and exploitation are non-negotiables. Repentance isn’t optional.”
Yet amid the warnings, Brewer offers encouragement for believers to delve deeper into prophetic understanding. “God uses patterns, numbers and events to speak to us. He’s a God of incredible detail, and if we’re paying attention, we’ll see His hand at work everywhere,” he says.
Pastor Brewer’s vision for 2025 is both a challenge and an invitation. As the church stands at the threshold of what he describes as an invasion from God, he implores us to “Seek God’s heart, understand His ways and prepare for His presence.”
