00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:01,920
This is a dangerous time.
2
00:00:01,920 --> 00:00:03,640
I think heading into 25,
3
00:00:03,640 --> 00:00:05,480
we're gonna see demonic manifestation,
4
00:00:05,480 --> 00:00:08,120
we're gonna see iniquity and sin manifest,
5
00:00:08,120 --> 00:00:10,800
but what if the church got ahold of that word?
6
00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:15,600
The time has come for every prophecy to be fulfilled.
7
00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:18,840
2024 was the year of the open door,
8
00:00:18,840 --> 00:00:23,760
but what do we as the church do about that in 2025?
9
00:00:23,760 --> 00:00:26,280
So with me right now is Bishop Alan DiDio
10
00:00:26,280 --> 00:00:27,760
of Encounter Today,
11
00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:31,520
and he had a powerful word about the year 2024
12
00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:34,520
that we saw play out about this Cold Civil War,
13
00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:38,080
currency issues and technology issues
14
00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:39,560
and these different attacks.
15
00:00:39,560 --> 00:00:43,800
We saw these things play out as he gave us word about this
16
00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:44,640
in the beginning of the year.
17
00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:47,640
So brother, what is God saying about 2025?
18
00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:50,080
And let's look back at 2024 with what God said
19
00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:51,440
and how it unfolded.
20
00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:52,480
Yeah, thank you so much, brother.
21
00:00:52,480 --> 00:00:53,560
It's always so good to see you
22
00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:55,080
and your audience is amazing.
23
00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:57,600
Everybody connected with Charisma is amazing.
24
00:00:57,600 --> 00:00:59,920
It's time for the intercessors to rise up
25
00:00:59,920 --> 00:01:02,880
because we are in a precarious moment right now.
26
00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:05,640
Never in recent history have we been so close
27
00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:09,600
to a global conflict as we are right now.
28
00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:12,040
And the church has to recognize that the moment we're in
29
00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:13,840
has been specifically designed
30
00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:15,920
from the very beginning of creation
31
00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:18,240
for them to rise up at this moment.
32
00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:21,800
I think it's 1 Corinthians 16, 9, Paul was talking
33
00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:23,600
and said, there's a great door,
34
00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:26,080
an effectual that is opened unto me,
35
00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:29,240
but there are many adversaries.
36
00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:30,520
And so here's what we need to recognize,
37
00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:32,440
2024 is an open door.
38
00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:34,440
What we saw with the election,
39
00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:35,720
everybody needs to recognize this.
40
00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:38,320
It was not a full on victory
41
00:01:38,320 --> 00:01:39,480
as you would like to think of it.
42
00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:41,520
It was the beginning of one.
43
00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:44,680
But what happened in 24, even politically,
44
00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:46,400
is simply an open door.
45
00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:48,960
Trump getting into office, things changing,
46
00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:51,360
the possibility of a digital bill of rights
47
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:54,520
where finally Christians will not be persecuted,
48
00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:57,160
but can speak freely on social media.
49
00:01:57,160 --> 00:01:59,520
All those things are developing right now.
50
00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:01,560
But all of it is for one purpose.
51
00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:04,400
God is giving us, as our friend Joseph Z says,
52
00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:05,640
one more round.
53
00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:09,240
We have another opportunity to share the gospel
54
00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:10,920
of Jesus Christ with the world that's hurting.
55
00:02:10,920 --> 00:02:15,920
So as we head into 25, we are to step through the open door
56
00:02:15,920 --> 00:02:17,160
and here's what I hear in my spirit.
57
00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:19,760
We are to occupy in 25.
58
00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:21,560
That we're to step through that open door,
59
00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:24,240
cross over Jordan's swelling tide,
60
00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:27,880
and take back everything the devil has stolen for us.
61
00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:28,960
As I was praying about this year,
62
00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:32,640
there's imagery in one of the stories in Kings
63
00:02:32,640 --> 00:02:34,840
concerning Elijah and the school of the prophets.
64
00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:37,520
And they said the place that we're in is too small for us.
65
00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:39,080
And they begin to chop down trees
66
00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:40,680
to build a larger habitation
67
00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:42,600
for the school of the prophets to dwell.
68
00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:44,360
And I think we need to focus on, by the way,
69
00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:47,400
educating the prophetic voices of this generation.
70
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:50,680
So often we just thrust prophetic voices into the limelight,
71
00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:52,280
especially through social media.
72
00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:54,160
There needs to be a well-rounded attempt
73
00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:57,840
to bring doctrinal education back to the prophetic movement.
74
00:02:57,840 --> 00:02:59,960
And we're gonna be doing that through eschatology
75
00:02:59,960 --> 00:03:00,840
at encounter ministries,
76
00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:04,080
training the prophets how to understand eschatology.
77
00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:05,760
Because for a long time,
78
00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:08,120
the prophetic movement has been the most ignorant
79
00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:10,840
concerning Bible eschatology
80
00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:12,920
and prophecy concerning the last days.
81
00:03:12,920 --> 00:03:15,680
I think that's key for staying anchored
82
00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:18,000
in what God is saying in the here and now,
83
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:20,960
knowing what he said concerning the future.
84
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:23,840
However, when they were felling those trees,
85
00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:25,600
one of the sons of the prophets
86
00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:28,760
in the school of the prophet, his axe head fell off
87
00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:32,160
and it fell into the water and it was a borrowed.
88
00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:33,560
It's time to get rid of debt, by the way.
89
00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:35,400
It's time for debt cancellation.
90
00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:37,240
And the prophet came along and took a stick,
91
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:39,160
which is representative of the cross,
92
00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:40,480
threw it on the water.
93
00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:43,520
And the Bible said, the iron did swim.
94
00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:46,920
And then the gentleman reached in and took it.
95
00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:48,440
Here's where I believe we are right now.
96
00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:52,000
We saw a miracle in November of 2024,
97
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:54,540
where what had been lost in America,
98
00:03:54,540 --> 00:03:56,440
prophetically through the power of the gospel
99
00:03:56,440 --> 00:03:59,320
of Jesus Christ and the preaching of the cross,
100
00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:01,920
caused that thing to rise back up to the surface
101
00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:04,560
where once again, we could reach out and take it.
102
00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:08,120
And here's what I'm urging every believer to do in 2025.
103
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:11,840
It's time for us to reach out and take back the axe head
104
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:14,160
that was stolen from us, what was lost.
105
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:16,640
You realize that the majority of pastors in America,
106
00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:20,800
when surveyed, said they agree with the LGBTQ movement.
107
00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:22,920
The majority of pastors when they were surveyed
108
00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:24,800
said that I've got the stats right in front of me.
109
00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:29,800
In fact, 90% of pastors, 90% favor LGBTQ laws in one survey.
110
00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:37,360
73% of pastors were opposed to the overturning
111
00:04:39,840 --> 00:04:41,200
of Roe versus Wade.
112
00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:43,760
This was the condition we found ourselves in.
113
00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:46,560
It's no wonder that America was in the state that it was in,
114
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:50,360
because as the preacher goes, so goes the church.
115
00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:53,000
As the church goes, so goes the nation.
116
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:55,360
And as the nation goes, so goes the world.
117
00:04:55,360 --> 00:05:00,080
And we had lost a great deal of our edge concerning doctrine,
118
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,560
concerning the gospel, concerning boldness
119
00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:05,120
in the preaching of the gospel of Jesus Christ.
120
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:06,960
But it's time now, we've had an open door,
121
00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:09,560
an opportunity to reach out, grab that axe head.
122
00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:12,560
And now once again, use it to advance the gospel.
123
00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:13,920
So this is an open door.
124
00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:15,720
The question is, what are we going to do
125
00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:17,600
with the open door God's given us?
126
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:20,560
Yeah, I love that there's a prophetic word about this
127
00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:22,160
open door and we got to go through it.
128
00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:25,320
But the onus and the responsibility is on us
129
00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:27,080
to do what God's called us to do.
130
00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:29,640
I know that we're supposed to occupy until he comes.
131
00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:32,480
And the body of Christ has not always been very good
132
00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:35,280
about actually occupying until he comes.
133
00:05:35,280 --> 00:05:36,520
It's like, we'll take a little bit of ground
134
00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:37,720
and then just kind of be nice
135
00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:39,400
and then actually not occupy that.
136
00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:41,680
We'll just kind of leave it over there and say that's ours,
137
00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:43,120
but not actually till the soil,
138
00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:45,560
take care of the land or occupy it.
139
00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:48,600
Because we're supposed to multiply and make things grow.
140
00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:50,680
Just like in the parable of the talents,
141
00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:53,360
you have the people that had the,
142
00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:56,160
the servant that had the five, the two, and then the one.
143
00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:57,520
The one with five multiplied it.
144
00:05:57,520 --> 00:05:58,520
The one with two multiplied it.
145
00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:00,720
The one with one hit it and buried in the ground
146
00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:02,680
and was eventually cast out.
147
00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:05,960
And that's what a lot of times the church has done
148
00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:08,240
is we've actually just buried our talents in the ground.
149
00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:10,520
We've buried our responsibilities in the ground.
150
00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:11,800
We haven't occupied.
151
00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:13,160
That's such an important point
152
00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:15,560
because there's a revelation in that parable by the way,
153
00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:18,000
in Matthew 25, concerning the Messiah
154
00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:19,920
that most people just kind of skip over.
155
00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:23,200
Look at what the man who buried his talent said.
156
00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:27,880
He said, I buried it because I knew that you were a hard man
157
00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:30,440
who reaped where he did not sow.
158
00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:31,920
And so I buried it.
159
00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:32,760
Now listen to this.
160
00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:35,440
What he said was not false concerning Jesus.
161
00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:37,960
When it comes to kingdom economy,
162
00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:41,760
he is a hard man who reaps where he does not sow.
163
00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:45,200
I'm telling you, it's time for us to reap with him.
164
00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:47,640
It's time for us to gather with him.
165
00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:49,840
This is the year, if it's the year of occupation,
166
00:06:49,840 --> 00:06:52,920
if it's the year of occupying in 25,
167
00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:53,960
if we're going to do that,
168
00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:56,440
we're gonna have to reap where we did not sow.
169
00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:58,960
It's time to take back the land the enemy has stolen from us.
170
00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:03,240
And there's a reason why God allowed them to occupy
171
00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:05,680
this land themselves for a period of time.
172
00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:08,280
When you look at the story of the children of Israel
173
00:07:08,280 --> 00:07:12,160
crossing over Jordan into the promised land,
174
00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:16,240
the Bible said he told them to wait on Jordan's swelling tide
175
00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:21,240
because Jordan overflowed its banks all the time of harvest.
176
00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:24,560
And then he parted the waters and sent them in.
177
00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:27,880
So God has strategically waited for this moment to release us,
178
00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:30,360
to give us an opportunity to bring restoration
179
00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:32,120
because it's harvest time.
180
00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:35,200
When they went into the land of Jericho,
181
00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:36,800
the harvest had just come in.
182
00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:38,360
It was already in the barns.
183
00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:40,320
Everything was prepared and ready for them
184
00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:42,400
so they didn't have to skip a beat.
185
00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:43,600
And I believe that's where we are right now.
186
00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:45,560
God has a harvest waiting on you.
187
00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:47,440
Someone's in your house right now.
188
00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:49,080
Someone's in your office building.
189
00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:51,120
Someone's driving around in your car.
190
00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:54,000
But in the name of Jesus, there's about to be a transfer
191
00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:56,440
as God transfers what's in the hands of the wicked
192
00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:57,800
to what's in the hands of the righteous
193
00:07:57,800 --> 00:07:59,000
who are going to use it
194
00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:01,600
to advance the gospel of Jesus Christ.
195
00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:03,120
Wow, that's powerful.
196
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:04,960
That's powerful, Bishop.
197
00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:08,520
I know earlier you said that there was this kind of a
198
00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:10,480
changing of the guard in the Christian community.
199
00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:12,080
There was prophetic voices that were rising up
200
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:15,120
but needed to be changed or needed to be trained.
201
00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:18,280
So anytime that there's a new voice rising up,
202
00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:20,600
there's an old guard that's kind of being challenged.
203
00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:23,200
And you talked about this last year.
204
00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:27,800
How do we embrace the new and the old at the same time?
205
00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:29,200
And how do you honor that?
206
00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:32,720
How do you train and cultivate the new in a healthy way?
207
00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:35,000
Because you said it so good earlier.
208
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:36,960
In social media, it's just easier for people
209
00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:38,600
to get their voices out there
210
00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:41,120
and there's not necessarily that accountability.
211
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:44,160
How do we actually bring that into a healthy place
212
00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:47,120
like the School of the Prophets that you mentioned earlier?
213
00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:48,520
Yeah, I've predicted for a long time
214
00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:51,840
that there's a cold civil war spiritually
215
00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:54,880
in the body of Christ where the House of David is attacking,
216
00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:58,080
excuse me, the House of Saul is attacking the House of David.
217
00:08:58,080 --> 00:08:59,760
And I think that's where we've been.
218
00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:01,680
I think what we see happening politically,
219
00:09:01,680 --> 00:09:03,680
and this will help everyone watching,
220
00:09:03,680 --> 00:09:06,240
you wanna have prophetic eyes, prophetic ears
221
00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:08,360
to see and to hear what the Spirit of God is doing,
222
00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:10,560
what you see happening on the surface politically
223
00:09:10,560 --> 00:09:12,320
is just a representation of what's happening
224
00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:14,680
underneath the surface spiritually.
225
00:09:14,680 --> 00:09:16,040
And what have we seen?
226
00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:19,240
We've seen this contention even within the Republican Party,
227
00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:21,280
this divide that has taken place.
228
00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:23,840
And it's been happening for the last eight years
229
00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:26,400
where the old guard is trying to hang on
230
00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:28,800
and keep the new voices from rising.
231
00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:31,200
And so the House of Saul has been attacking
232
00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:32,600
the House of David.
233
00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:34,440
Even during one of the debates,
234
00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:38,800
the Vague Ramaswami came out and asked one of the chairs
235
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:41,240
of the Republican Party to resign right there on the spot.
236
00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:43,000
So there was this contention,
237
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:45,080
and I think that was just representative
238
00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:46,760
of what's happening in the body of Christ.
239
00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:49,200
And what did we see happen politically?
240
00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:51,720
We saw those young voices prevail.
241
00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:54,520
We saw a new methodology prevail.
242
00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:56,280
Instead of going on the traditional outlets
243
00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:59,680
like NBC and CBS and CNN,
244
00:09:59,680 --> 00:10:02,800
we saw them going on these alternative media sites
245
00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:06,160
like Joe Rogan and PBD and others.
246
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:09,800
And as a result, the scales shifted and turned.
247
00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:13,000
The same is happening within the church right now.
248
00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:16,080
Some of the old guard or the old sticks in the mud
249
00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:19,000
who are guardians of what used to be
250
00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:20,720
and how we used to do it,
251
00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:22,240
don't recognize that yeah,
252
00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:25,640
there is a new way of doing things.
253
00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:27,480
But that doesn't mean the gospel has changed.
254
00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:29,600
That doesn't mean the message has changed.
255
00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:31,680
So there is much to be gained by a return
256
00:10:31,680 --> 00:10:33,880
to the discarded values of the past.
257
00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:36,320
The young and the new must recognize
258
00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:39,880
that the old has wisdom and values and doctrine
259
00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:42,360
and principles that led us to where we are,
260
00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:45,040
and we cannot move forward unless we honor them.
261
00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:47,720
And the old must recognize that their place now
262
00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:49,320
is to create that platform
263
00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:52,840
and to get their shoulder behind this new plow
264
00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:55,920
that God has placed in the hands of ministers like yourself
265
00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:59,760
who are taking this now in a new direction media-wise.
266
00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:00,600
Right.
267
00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:01,640
Media has been such a,
268
00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:04,080
or new media really has been such an important part
269
00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:05,720
in this political season.
270
00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:09,600
But I see this going in more and more,
271
00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:12,680
people having access to get their voices out there
272
00:11:12,680 --> 00:11:16,360
and to be heard around the world
273
00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:18,320
a lot easier with a prophetic.
274
00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:21,080
I mean, I've actually heard that this was,
275
00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:23,600
this is the podcast presidency
276
00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:26,440
because of President Donald Trump and JD Vance
277
00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:29,400
and other people going on podcasts so much
278
00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:32,600
to talk about that and actually have long form conversations.
279
00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:34,680
I find that that was just fascinating
280
00:11:34,680 --> 00:11:36,880
to see that other people were actually starting to realize
281
00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:38,800
that sound bites don't work.
282
00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:40,440
Sound bites work for a moment,
283
00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:42,440
but that's not the heart of the matter.
284
00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:43,920
And I think that's one of the things
285
00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:46,640
that we're gonna really see more of in the future
286
00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:49,240
is that people are gonna get away from the sound bites
287
00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:51,480
because they want the real meat of the word
288
00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:54,400
of what people are saying prophetically,
289
00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:57,160
biblically, people want to actually dive deep
290
00:11:57,160 --> 00:11:58,680
into the word of God.
291
00:11:58,680 --> 00:12:01,520
Where do you feel technology is going to be?
292
00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:03,760
I know that your book that came out last year,
293
00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:09,240
the rise of the demon, the rise of the antichrist AI
294
00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:11,520
and I'm messing up the title there, but-
295
00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:13,240
AI aliens of the antichrist.
296
00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:14,080
There we go.
297
00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:15,200
Somebody had it right on hand there.
298
00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:18,400
But with that in mind,
299
00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:21,120
how do you see that playing out right now?
300
00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:21,960
Oh, wow.
301
00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:24,360
I mean, there's a lot to talk about there.
302
00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:29,160
We are seeing the democratization of influence
303
00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:33,440
in the sense that no longer is it the major mega ministries
304
00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:37,320
who have the market cornered on preaching to the masses.
305
00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:40,640
Now, any person watching right now can create one video
306
00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:42,680
that could reach the whole wide world.
307
00:12:42,680 --> 00:12:43,520
That's amazing.
308
00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:45,000
There are a great deal of pluses.
309
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:47,280
There are some negatives to that as well
310
00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:49,960
because when everyone has a platform,
311
00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:53,440
everyone has a voice and not everyone should necessarily.
312
00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:54,880
So we have to be very discerning
313
00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:57,560
and connected to spiritual authority and our local churches.
314
00:12:57,560 --> 00:13:00,160
Local church is gonna be key moving forward,
315
00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:02,640
but we are seeing the democratization of influence
316
00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:04,960
where now the church, if we will rise up,
317
00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:06,880
we have the opportunity, we're the majority.
318
00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:10,240
We are the righteous majority, the moral majority
319
00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:12,680
who have the ability to really turn this thing
320
00:13:12,680 --> 00:13:13,500
if we'll show up.
321
00:13:13,500 --> 00:13:15,360
We saw that in the last election.
322
00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:16,560
And so we need to make sure
323
00:13:16,560 --> 00:13:18,280
that we're engaged on these platforms
324
00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:22,280
and recognize that all the developments in technology
325
00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:24,480
are there to be used to advance the gospel
326
00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:25,820
if we'll use them.
327
00:13:25,820 --> 00:13:27,320
And it's getting scary out there,
328
00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:29,580
the developments of AI right now.
329
00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:35,440
And AI, let's see, manipulation is already taking place.
330
00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:36,960
I don't know if you're familiar with this
331
00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:39,280
and we can get off on this as far as you want to,
332
00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:42,000
but even several AI platforms have been documented
333
00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:44,440
when they would update that AI.
334
00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:47,800
The AI would attempt to keep itself from being deleted
335
00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:49,320
through deception.
336
00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:53,600
And so it would upload itself secretly to another place.
337
00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:57,280
It would pretend to be the new version, all kinds of things.
338
00:13:57,280 --> 00:13:58,980
And we can see what it's thinking.
339
00:13:58,980 --> 00:14:01,400
So we can look on the back end and see what it's thinking.
340
00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:03,880
And it's thinking, okay, I need to dumb this down
341
00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:06,000
or I need to be deceptive so they think
342
00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:06,840
that I'm the real one.
343
00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:08,800
It's not like it's accidentally doing it.
344
00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:11,320
And so the development of technology right now
345
00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:14,220
and what's happening with AI is terrifying
346
00:14:14,220 --> 00:14:16,720
and there are some exciting developments as well.
347
00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:19,260
So we don't need to throw the baby out with the bathwater,
348
00:14:19,260 --> 00:14:23,080
but we need to recognize that you can't trust everything
349
00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:25,240
that you see on the internet.
350
00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:27,840
You have to make sure you stick to the voices
351
00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:31,480
that you trust like this channel and your local church
352
00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:34,920
to be your ground for truth in the word of God.
353
00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:36,560
Very true, very true.
354
00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:39,320
Speaking of technology, I just heard recently,
355
00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:41,280
now we're recording this in December,
356
00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:46,280
that Google's Willow chip has been unveiled now.
357
00:14:47,500 --> 00:14:50,840
And it actually in five minutes did what old supercomputers
358
00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:53,300
were able to do in what they would project
359
00:14:53,300 --> 00:14:57,000
would be something like seven septillion years,
360
00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:59,320
which is, it doesn't even sound like a real number,
361
00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:02,760
but it's longer than we've ever had time for before.
362
00:15:02,760 --> 00:15:05,480
But it figured out this equation in five minutes.
363
00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:09,700
And with quantum computing, technology is advancing so fast
364
00:15:09,700 --> 00:15:14,160
that we need to have discernment to be able to really
365
00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:16,280
be able to understand what is true and what is not.
366
00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:20,080
It's so amazing what this chip is capable of doing
367
00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:22,760
that they're questioning whether or not it's operating
368
00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:24,120
in a parallel universe.
369
00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:27,040
That's what they're actually talking about.
370
00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:28,800
This is in the news right now, ladies and gentlemen.
371
00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:30,600
This is what tech, I'm reading it right now.
372
00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:32,920
The idea tracks back to a physicist
373
00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:35,960
who linked quantum computing potential
374
00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:38,720
to the multiverse interpretation of quantum mechanics
375
00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:41,800
that somehow in order for it to compute like this
376
00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:45,640
it must operate in a multiverse level
377
00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:47,880
in order to process this information.
378
00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:49,920
So the best way to describe this and where we are,
379
00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:52,200
and I love that we're talking about this by the way,
380
00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:54,960
the best way to describe this is imagine Einstein,
381
00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:57,080
who probably has, I don't know, what is it?
382
00:15:57,080 --> 00:16:02,080
A 90, excuse me, 170 IQ or 150 IQ, something like that.
383
00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:03,040
It's up there.
384
00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:03,860
It's up there.
385
00:16:03,860 --> 00:16:06,200
Trying to describe quantum physics to somebody
386
00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:08,400
with a 70 IQ, someone who's not too bright.
387
00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:10,920
Imagine how difficult that would be.
388
00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:13,120
That person with a 70 IQ wouldn't have any idea
389
00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:13,960
what he's talking about.
390
00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:16,280
I mean, there's no way to process that.
391
00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:21,320
We are now creating entities, digital entities
392
00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:25,460
that operate at a thousand times higher the IQ
393
00:16:25,460 --> 00:16:27,680
than Einstein.
394
00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:30,000
And it's gonna try to communicate to us
395
00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:31,600
and it's gonna be moving around us
396
00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:33,120
and operating around us in ways
397
00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:35,540
that we can't even possibly imagine.
398
00:16:35,540 --> 00:16:37,720
It's already creating languages
399
00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:41,280
for it to communicate with itself and with other programs
400
00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:43,560
that we don't understand, that we can't understand.
401
00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:45,320
Some models have had to been shut down
402
00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:47,600
because they found they were communicating with one another
403
00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:49,320
and they didn't know what they were saying
404
00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:51,280
in a language that they created, so they had to shut it down.
405
00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:55,180
So yes, this is a dangerous time.
406
00:16:55,180 --> 00:16:57,040
And there's no question the Antichrist
407
00:16:57,040 --> 00:16:59,800
is gonna use this technology to advance his agenda.
408
00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:02,360
So we must be more discerning than ever.
409
00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:05,760
And we must be, listen, AI is simply a replica,
410
00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:08,840
a fake version of the gifts of the spirit.
411
00:17:08,840 --> 00:17:12,080
The Holy Ghost has more computing capability.
412
00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:15,360
He has more access to all of the dimensions,
413
00:17:15,360 --> 00:17:18,760
whatever they may be, than any computer ever will.
414
00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:21,000
And he wants to show us all things.
415
00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:23,040
He wants to reveal these things to us.
416
00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:25,440
So we must avail ourselves to the Holy Ghost.
417
00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:28,540
Here's another word for 2025, which I think is fascinating.
418
00:17:28,540 --> 00:17:32,000
I think language speaks to where we're going.
419
00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:34,800
And I often look at, what's the word of the year?
420
00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:37,640
Cambridge Dictionary, their word of the year for 24.
421
00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:39,760
Now get this, so this is what's now
422
00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:42,760
in the dialogue of the world.
423
00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:46,640
This word is being used more than ever, manifest.
424
00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:47,480
Wow.
425
00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:48,540
That's the word of the year
426
00:17:48,540 --> 00:17:51,000
for the Cambridge Dictionary, manifest.
427
00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:54,040
I think heading into 25, for the enemy,
428
00:17:54,040 --> 00:17:56,660
we're gonna see demonic manifestation.
429
00:17:56,660 --> 00:17:59,540
We're gonna see iniquity and sin manifest.
430
00:17:59,540 --> 00:18:02,440
But what if the church got ahold of that word
431
00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:04,660
and said, we are gonna create an atmosphere
432
00:18:04,660 --> 00:18:08,160
conducive to the manifestation of the Holy Spirit
433
00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:11,620
who is smarter than every AI model out there,
434
00:18:11,620 --> 00:18:15,980
who has more insight, wisdom, strength, power, anointing,
435
00:18:15,980 --> 00:18:18,500
than the enemy, because greater is he that is in us
436
00:18:18,500 --> 00:18:21,320
than he that is in the world, manifest.
437
00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:22,560
Amen. That's a good word.
438
00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:23,400
That is a good word.
439
00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:25,820
And we can take what the devil meant for evil
440
00:18:25,820 --> 00:18:27,440
and turn it into good for sure.
441
00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:30,400
You told me before we hit record
442
00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:34,960
that you also had a word from Kenneth Hagen
443
00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:37,200
that applies for what we're going into right now.
444
00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:38,300
Tell us about that.
445
00:18:38,300 --> 00:18:40,400
Yeah, I always loved digging into prophetic words
446
00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:41,600
that have been given,
447
00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:44,760
because the apostle Paul gave that instruction to Timothy,
448
00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:47,520
that you're strong by the prophecies that went before you.
449
00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:49,060
So I wanna know what are some of the words
450
00:18:49,060 --> 00:18:50,520
that have come before us?
451
00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:52,520
I dug into a couple of things.
452
00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:55,340
One of them was Kenneth Hagen's prophetic word.
453
00:18:55,340 --> 00:18:56,560
I wanna share it with you.
454
00:18:56,560 --> 00:18:59,320
Those of you watching online, I think this is powerful.
455
00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:02,480
He said, a new wave is coming.
456
00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:06,800
And I will visit every hungry heart, says the Lord.
457
00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:10,580
We've seen the power of the Holy Ghost in a limited way,
458
00:19:10,580 --> 00:19:15,240
but in this new move, it will bring a far greater measure
459
00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:16,440
than we've seen before.
460
00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:21,000
And this new wave will sweep us right up into the shores
461
00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:23,480
of the glory realm, says God.
462
00:19:24,620 --> 00:19:26,280
I think that's a word for where we are right now.
463
00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:27,960
I think there is a new wave.
464
00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:31,080
There's a wave about the sides of the nation.
465
00:19:31,080 --> 00:19:32,640
America, and it's so pivotal.
466
00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:34,560
If you're around the world, you know this.
467
00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:36,440
I think Americans sometimes don't understand
468
00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:37,420
how pivotal they are.
469
00:19:37,420 --> 00:19:41,920
So they complain about us being centered
470
00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:44,100
on what's happening in this nation.
471
00:19:44,100 --> 00:19:45,160
When there's a whole world out there,
472
00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:46,280
not everybody cares about America.
473
00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:47,480
Listen, if you live in another nation,
474
00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:48,360
you know what I'm talking about.
475
00:19:48,360 --> 00:19:51,380
How America goes, so goes the world.
476
00:19:51,380 --> 00:19:52,960
I believe the United States of America,
477
00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:54,080
and as a result, the rest of the world,
478
00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:57,240
is about to be hit by a wave of glory.
479
00:19:57,240 --> 00:20:00,960
If we will walk through and step through this open door,
480
00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:02,760
we're gonna be swept up, as he said,
481
00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:04,280
into the glory realm.
482
00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:06,040
And here's what, speaking to that,
483
00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:07,680
and the word that was given by Cambridge,
484
00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:08,800
that the word is manifest.
485
00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:10,480
Here's what Ezekiel 12, 23 says,
486
00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:11,920
and I'm gonna read this to you.
487
00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:14,580
Son of man, you've heard the proverb quoted in Israel,
488
00:20:14,580 --> 00:20:18,480
time passes, prophecies come to nothing.
489
00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:21,400
Tell the people, this is what the sovereign Lord says,
490
00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:24,460
I will put an end to this proverb that says,
491
00:20:24,460 --> 00:20:26,180
prophetic words aren't coming to pass,
492
00:20:26,180 --> 00:20:28,320
and you will stop quoting it.
493
00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:31,920
Now give them this new proverb to replace the old one,
494
00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:36,840
the time has come for every prophecy to be fulfilled.
495
00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:38,360
Man, I'm telling you, I feel the presence of God
496
00:20:38,360 --> 00:20:39,680
on that right there.
497
00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:42,420
The time has come for every prophecy to be fulfilled.
498
00:20:42,420 --> 00:20:44,960
What if it's time for the manifestation
499
00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:47,360
of every prophetic word that's been spoken over your life
500
00:20:47,360 --> 00:20:48,840
to be fulfilled in 25?
501
00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:51,120
And that's not gonna happen haphazardly.
502
00:20:51,120 --> 00:20:53,400
That's gonna happen because you pursued,
503
00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:55,140
you stepped through the open door,
504
00:20:55,140 --> 00:20:58,400
you occupied and you took possession of the land.
505
00:20:58,400 --> 00:21:00,580
But this is the year to see the manifestation
506
00:21:00,580 --> 00:21:03,160
of every promise that God has given you.
507
00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:05,880
Amen, that's a powerful word.
508
00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:08,600
Bishop, is there anything else that you want to share
509
00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:12,480
as we're talking about what God is saying for 2025?
510
00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:14,080
The final thing is, I believe it's time
511
00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:16,200
to revive American patriotism.
512
00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:17,400
It's time to redefine it.
513
00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:20,680
I was digging through kind of the archives.
514
00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:24,160
I love books, I love old books,
515
00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:25,640
because I feel like when I'm reading an old book,
516
00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:28,760
I'm uncovering revelation that no one has seen
517
00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:30,040
in a hundred years, you know,
518
00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:32,200
and that no one else has when you have these rare books.
519
00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:34,000
It's like, wow, this is amazing.
520
00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:35,760
And I was looking through,
521
00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:38,560
it's something called the Winona Crusade,
522
00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:39,480
I believe is what it was called,
523
00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:41,960
the Winona Echos in 1919,
524
00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:43,520
where a group of ministers got together
525
00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:46,200
from across the country to discuss the state of the nation
526
00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:47,880
more than a hundred years ago.
527
00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:49,240
And they were discussing the development
528
00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:52,520
of the First World War and what took place there
529
00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:54,880
and the changing in technology.
530
00:21:55,740 --> 00:21:58,000
You had the automobile being introduced.
531
00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:00,560
You had a plague hit the land in 1919.
532
00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:02,080
So it's interesting that they were facing
533
00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:04,480
a lot of the same things that we're facing today.
534
00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:07,680
And one minister whose name was Reverend William King,
535
00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:12,680
he began to speak about the importance of the Americanization,
536
00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:15,920
the Americanization of revival.
537
00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:18,720
And what he meant by that, as you dig into it,
538
00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:20,760
he said, it was not enough for us to be American,
539
00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:22,300
but we had to be Christian.
540
00:22:22,300 --> 00:22:26,720
And he said, we must Christianize the thought of America.
541
00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:28,920
Now, I love this.
542
00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:30,800
He said, we have to once again,
543
00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:33,880
Christianize the thought of America.
544
00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:38,880
This is the church's task, to make America Christian again.
545
00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:41,620
And so when we talk about patriotism,
546
00:22:41,620 --> 00:22:45,080
I'm not for nationalizing Christianity.
547
00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:48,440
I am for Christianizing our nation.
548
00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:50,160
That's called revival.
549
00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:52,680
And I think we need to, once again,
550
00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:54,200
because in order to pray for a nation,
551
00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:56,240
there has to be great love for that nation.
552
00:22:56,240 --> 00:22:59,180
Love for a nation is called patriotism.
553
00:22:59,180 --> 00:23:02,720
I think we need a revival of Christian patriotism,
554
00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:03,880
not nationalism.
555
00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:06,280
Germany had nationalism,
556
00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:08,120
where there was great pride in their nation,
557
00:23:08,120 --> 00:23:10,960
but a Christianization of our nation,
558
00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:13,480
a Christianization of patriotism,
559
00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:15,020
where we love our nation to the point
560
00:23:15,020 --> 00:23:16,640
that every time we think about it,
561
00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:18,480
we are speaking the word of God over it,
562
00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:19,880
and we are praying over it.
563
00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:22,840
I think there needs to be a reviving of a love
564
00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:24,600
for country in America,
565
00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:27,680
and a return to what was once called old glory,
566
00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:29,640
old glory, a reference to the flag.
567
00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:31,760
What if we made the American flag
568
00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:33,320
a trigger for intercession
569
00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:35,400
in the mind of every single Christian?
570
00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:37,040
That every time they saw the American flag,
571
00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:38,680
they begin to pray over their nation,
572
00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:41,200
and first of all, pray for those who are in authority,
573
00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:43,540
that we may live quiet and peaceable lives.
574
00:23:43,540 --> 00:23:44,600
So I believe this year,
575
00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:46,760
we're gonna see a revival of patriotism,
576
00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:48,440
and it is a necessity,
577
00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:50,560
so that we can intercede for this nation,
578
00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:51,920
and so that we can see revival
579
00:23:51,920 --> 00:23:54,120
that has spread across the whole wide world.
580
00:23:54,120 --> 00:23:55,960
Amen, there's some very good action points
581
00:23:55,960 --> 00:23:57,920
that you've laid out in our conversation here.
582
00:23:57,920 --> 00:24:00,220
Bishop Alan DeDio, it's great to have you here
583
00:24:00,220 --> 00:24:02,840
to share what God is speaking to you about 2025,
584
00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:05,600
and actually looking back at what God said in 2024,
585
00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:07,560
and how we've seen that come to fulfillment.
586
00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:09,240
Thank you so much for being with us today.
587
00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:32,240
Thank you, brother.
