What I believe is happening in this time, which is amazing, is the Lord is allowing

2
00:00:04,600 --> 00:00:09,120
exposure. If the people in the church, if the preachers and the pastors don't start

3
00:00:09,120 --> 00:00:13,980
speaking to these things, God is going to raise up another group of Russell Brands and

4
00:00:13,980 --> 00:00:18,580
Tucker Carlson's and Jordan Peterson's and people that have the chutzpah to actually

5
00:00:18,580 --> 00:00:20,160
say what's going on.

6
00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:26,220
He did. He has been in the news because of his arrest for these wild parties and a lot

7
00:00:26,220 --> 00:00:32,920
of other nefarious actions. And there's a lot of things that we just don't understand

8
00:00:32,920 --> 00:00:38,600
from the outside. And I know Todd, you weren't there, but you've been around this. You've

9
00:00:38,600 --> 00:00:43,700
been, you've heard things. You've been in the belly of the beast as in Hollywood. So

10
00:00:43,700 --> 00:00:48,600
I'd love to get your take on everything that's been going on in the news with P Diddy specifically.

11
00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:53,480
Yeah. Well, John, so good to be with you. And this is something that honestly I've been

12
00:00:53,480 --> 00:00:59,040
praying for years because when I had my experience and I tell people I wasn't famous in Hollywood,

13
00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:02,880
but the Lord allowed me to see a lot of the lifestyles of the folks that were, I knew

14
00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:06,300
a lot of people that were famous and had a lot of friends that were famous. I saw under

15
00:01:06,300 --> 00:01:11,080
the covers in Hollywood as a child and all the way up into like my early twenties, then

16
00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:15,160
I got radically saved. But I really believe God allowed me to see that because number

17
00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:19,100
one, there's a plumb line from Hollywood to government. What do you mean, Todd? Well,

18
00:01:19,100 --> 00:01:23,460
what I mean is that there was this thing called the church commission and operation mockingbird

19
00:01:23,460 --> 00:01:27,960
and if you look that up, you'll see that this is not conspiracy, that there was absolute

20
00:01:27,960 --> 00:01:33,680
ties between the media and the intelligence community and propagandizing and using that

21
00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:38,600
for their advantage to push forth an agenda. And so that was what the church commission

22
00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:42,800
was about. You can read into that and, you know, Operation Mockingbird, but many, many

23
00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:48,480
years later, let's fast forward to 2024 and why are we seeing things like the NXIVM cult?

24
00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:55,240
We're seeing Weinstein, we're seeing Epstein and now P-Diddy and this is what many people,

25
00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:58,080
it's kind of like the thing that you don't talk about, you know, especially if you don't

26
00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:03,320
want to get blacklisted if you come from Hollywood, but it's a very well known secret, okay? It's

27
00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:09,280
a very well known secret and that they have these sexual parties that people are asked

28
00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:12,960
to do things that they really oftentimes aren't comfortable with in order to get somewhere

29
00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:18,120
in the industry. You talk about the casting couch and, you know, there's just been a lot

30
00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:24,040
of stuff like that with children for many, many years. And so it's all what I believe

31
00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:29,060
is happening in this time, which is amazing is the Lord is allowing exposure and we're

32
00:02:29,060 --> 00:02:33,200
seeing several different areas of exposure. We're seeing it happen in the church, which,

33
00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:37,160
you know, that's always concerning and it always, you know, hurts us just to see that

34
00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:41,560
happen. But judgment comes first in the house of the Lord. And then we're seeing it, you

35
00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:45,840
know, in politics. I mean, look what happened when Donald Trump came in in 2016 and talked

36
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:50,600
about the fake news media, you know, he's talking, he really kind of started talking

37
00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:55,080
about things that people didn't really talk about publicly, especially somebody of that

38
00:02:55,080 --> 00:03:00,000
stature. And what it started doing was a lot more people started awakening. I believe many

39
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:04,000
people that are watching this broadcast probably started looking into the news and how, you

40
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:09,040
know, 90% of the news is owned by six corporations. And so anyway, you get in all these things

41
00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:14,400
and you realize there's more to the story. And so all back now to P Diddy, you know,

42
00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:22,400
this is a man that it looks like he was using video tapes and, you know, different sets,

43
00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:28,800
kind of like Epstein, similar to possibly blackmail people to control people. How deep

44
00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:32,880
does this web go? We know that there's a lot more people that are probably shaking their

45
00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:37,160
boots right now. He was connected. I mean, you see all the pictures of P Diddy with all

46
00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:42,280
these people, including Barack Obama and Oprah Winfrey and many, many other people. And so,

47
00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:46,680
you know, what is the level of their connectivity to this? And how many of these people have

48
00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:52,280
been to one of Diddy's freak offs or one of these very perverse events and parties that

49
00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:56,840
he had, you know, when what was going on there. And now, just last few days, there's been

50
00:03:56,840 --> 00:04:00,200
several I think it's several hundred people, it's kind of unprecedented that have come

51
00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:04,200
forward via this lawyer. And there's a whole bunch of other people that are now going to

52
00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:09,060
be pressing charges on him, you know, some of them, minors. And so this is this is really

53
00:04:09,060 --> 00:04:12,960
about to have I mean, unless something happens, and we don't know, you know, we never know

54
00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:18,000
these days. But if this thing is allowed to proceed, and, you know, eventually more and

55
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:22,680
more information comes out, I think that this is going to be a massive expose. I think we've

56
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:29,520
only scratched the surface, John. So a few years ago, we had the Epstein files. And so

57
00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:35,360
there's the there was the hashtag of Epstein didn't kill himself. Okay. I think the the

58
00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:43,000
PD did he didn't kill himself is is going to be starting to trend soon. And prayerfully,

59
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:48,000
because there's been so many prophetic words about this being a year of exposure. And we're

60
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:53,960
actually seeing that as you just mentioned in Hollywood in politics in the church, that,

61
00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:59,860
you know, maybe did he can stay alive long enough to actually expose the things that

62
00:04:59,860 --> 00:05:06,000
need to be exposed. But there's also an agenda that's going to try to keep him quiet, because

63
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:10,840
that keeps the status quo. That's right. Yeah. Yeah. Well, that's that's what happened. I

64
00:05:10,840 --> 00:05:13,840
mean, with Epstein, it's absolutely insane what happened. I mean, if you think about

65
00:05:13,840 --> 00:05:18,640
it, somebody like that should have been kept at a very safe quarters and very heavily monitor

66
00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:22,460
and you would think they would have been how did what happened, you know, how did that

67
00:05:22,460 --> 00:05:26,840
allowed to be happened, you know, but it did, you know, so and then you got Galen Maxwell,

68
00:05:26,840 --> 00:05:30,240
who's still out there and what you know, what she talking about. I mean, that case has been

69
00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:34,560
very, it seems like these cases are very suppressed. I mean, if you think about it, if it was somebody

70
00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:38,880
like, let's just give an example, like a Trump child, like one of the Trump, can you imagine

71
00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:43,160
the wall to wall coverage, even if it was Donald Trump himself, I mean, it would be

72
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:47,720
all over the news every day, the talking heads would be dissecting it, they'd have movies

73
00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:51,760
and docu films and everything. And yes, there are a few when it comes to Epstein, some of

74
00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:57,120
these things, but it just kind of seems like the media is quite biased. You know, John,

75
00:05:57,120 --> 00:06:00,840
it's like, if you got somebody on the left, you know, for some reason, their their story

76
00:06:00,840 --> 00:06:04,440
seem to get suppressed, you know, or somebody that they don't want, you know, the information

77
00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:07,880
out there. And then you got somebody like a Donald Trump or his family member, and they're

78
00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:12,640
all over, you know, they make up stuff, and it's constantly played, you know, so I think

79
00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:16,960
the folks what I what I feel like, and this is not just Republicans or conservatives,

80
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:21,680
I've talked to a lot of people in Ubers and taxis and on airplanes, I travel all the time.

81
00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:26,640
And it's people that historically, I noticed this this election cycle more so than even

82
00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:31,400
in the past two, where the folks are really starting to talk more openly about this and

83
00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:36,480
have a frustration and feel like, you know what, it's not really Republican, Democrat,

84
00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:41,600
it's kind of like us against them, like this elite group of people that seem to be kind

85
00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:45,640
of, you know, it's like the Wizard of Oz behind the curtain that are running things. And what

86
00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:50,480
I see happening, and I think this is the Lord, in this hour is he's allowing the Babylon

87
00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:57,200
system to be exposed. And this is, you know, prophetic and spiritual and significance,

88
00:06:57,200 --> 00:07:01,720
because what's happening is people have to choose a side. And because the hour is so

89
00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:05,400
late, there's really no fence sitting. I mean, there never really is fence sitting that's

90
00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:09,280
allowed the body of Christ. But a lot of people have kind of been half in or maybe they've

91
00:07:09,280 --> 00:07:13,960
been at like, you know, just drinking the milk stage, not really got into the meat of

92
00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:18,800
knowing the word and really living a consecrated lifestyle. At this time, that is a requirement.

93
00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:22,280
I mean, it's always been a requirement, don't get me wrong. But what I'm saying is, it's

94
00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:27,600
just it's right now it's so overt, it's so in our face. And I believe the Lord is allowing

95
00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:32,360
this so that people have a decision to make. And, you know, if you're going to make the

96
00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:36,560
decision to look the other way to all these different things, whether it's the, you know,

97
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:40,280
the gender confusion with the kids or the curriculums or what's going on in the world

98
00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:44,880
geopolitically or, you know, even the changes to our monetary system that the heifers in

99
00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:49,440
Israel, you know, I'm just go on and on prophetically about all the things that are happening. So,

100
00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:53,280
you know, if you choose to have your head buried, then you're just going to pretend

101
00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:58,720
like it's 1999. But if you have any discernment or any ability to kind of see what's going

102
00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:03,120
on here and actually research, you're going to find that it's not just Christians anymore.

103
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:07,920
It's not just conservatives. It's it's folks that are just looking into these matters and

104
00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:12,360
are awakening. And I think this is the devil's worst nightmare because it leads to you know,

105
00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:17,320
the Bible says, Seeking you shall find knocking the door shall be open. If people start researching

106
00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:20,840
and seeking, I've had a lot of people that have come to our church that just like the

107
00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:25,280
fact that I spoke to the political mountain, you know, and, you know, it's really just

108
00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:28,760
a spiritual thing to me. But, you know, like abortion and all these different things. But

109
00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:31,800
but what happens is they come just because of that, you know, they're conservative or

110
00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:35,660
they're like Trump or something and then they get radically saved, you know. So the Lord

111
00:08:35,660 --> 00:08:40,160
has used this as an end road. And I believe this is all part of the great end time harvest.

112
00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:45,080
Yeah, you know, I love how you're just talking about that. How it's, you know, people are

113
00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:50,160
really seeking and it's not your it's not what you would normally think of for those

114
00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:54,800
people. I mean, a couple years ago, I was at a Mario Marillo event. I know you work

115
00:08:54,800 --> 00:09:00,280
very closely with Mario Marillo and actually Lance Wallnau and Mario Marillo were having

116
00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:08,080
this revival. But it was it seemed like a Trump rally, a conservative rally. But really,

117
00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:13,720
what happened was people that had those values did not actually have the connection to the

118
00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:19,400
Lord and definitely didn't have a connection to the Holy Spirit. So while I was there,

119
00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:24,880
people got saved. And then I saw a couple hundred people get filled with the Holy Spirit.

120
00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:30,160
And so, like, even though they were good moral people already, they were missing those things.

121
00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:37,680
And so I think there needs to be a revival within the conservative movement, within the

122
00:09:37,680 --> 00:09:42,720
let's just say, common sense, people, you know, people that are just kind of maybe what

123
00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:47,680
you said earlier, they've been on the fence, they just haven't they just haven't decided,

124
00:09:47,680 --> 00:09:53,400
but they know which one is right. And so, you know, just the fact that there needs to

125
00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:58,920
be a revival amongst people that you wouldn't think that there would be a revival. I mean,

126
00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:00,880
what's your experience with that? Does that resonate?

127
00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:04,240
John, this is such a needed conversation. I really feel like the Holy Spirit's leading

128
00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:07,560
you to speak this right now, because a lot of people say, Oh, you know, you're you're

129
00:10:07,560 --> 00:10:10,800
obsessed with Donald Trump, whatever. I'm not at all. In fact, we don't put him on a

130
00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:15,000
pedestal. And I you know, that really, there's no political solution for America, obviously,

131
00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:19,400
we vote. And obviously, we take a stand. But ultimately, it's the church, it's the church

132
00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:23,400
that needs to stand up. And so thank you for articulating this. And I hope that anybody

133
00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:28,120
that's watching this understands that what we're excited about and what I'm seeing is

134
00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:32,240
a hunger, unlike anything I've ever seen. You mentioned Mario and Lance, and I've had

135
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:35,880
a privilege to work with Mario pretty closely and Lance, but more so Mario. But you know,

136
00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:39,440
one of the things that we're noticing either at his tent or at our events, different places

137
00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:44,480
or at our church or where we go speak is the hunger is unlike anything I've ever seen in

138
00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:49,400
over 25 years of ministry. And so what has changed? What's changed is the the world has

139
00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:54,680
changed. And the situation is changing. What was once maybe more hidden in the realm of

140
00:10:54,680 --> 00:10:59,320
a political argument, or maybe it's just a different worldview. Now folks are understanding,

141
00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:03,880
hey, you know what, they're coming after parents that don't let their kids get a gender surgery.

142
00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:06,880
They're, you know, people are starting to see things. They're like, this is just wrong.

143
00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:10,800
This isn't the America that I knew, you know, what's going on? Our freedoms are being taken

144
00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:14,080
away, our rights are systematically that, you know, they're coming after people of faith

145
00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:18,680
more, we're seeing censorship. So what does this all mean? What I believe this is all

146
00:11:18,680 --> 00:11:23,000
part of this revival that we talk about, and people say, what's on the Bible? No, actually,

147
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:27,520
it is. It says in the last days, I will pour out my spirit. And that's what we're seeing

148
00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:32,880
happening is the spirit of Lord is being poured out. And what I'm excited about, John, is

149
00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:38,760
it's the people with the earrings and the green hair and tattoos, and ex drug addicts

150
00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:43,080
and ex gang bangers and, you know, people that are coming off of fentanyl. These are

151
00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:46,360
the folks that we're seeing come to ministry. These are the folks that are coming to know

152
00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:50,360
Jesus. And I believe these are going to be the folks that in this great end time harvest,

153
00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:55,520
the Lord raises up because they know the devil's playbook. And so that's what's going on from

154
00:11:55,520 --> 00:12:00,080
a spiritual standpoint. And that's why we feel this pressure. If you're a believer

155
00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:04,000
and you're a person of prayer, and you're living out the Word of God to the best of

156
00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:08,080
your ability, you probably feel a pressure. And a lot of folks are feeling weary because

157
00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:12,200
of that pressure. But the deal is we can't let weariness grow in, you know, in our heart,

158
00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:16,320
because the Bible says don't grow weary in doing good. So this is a time where we have

159
00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:22,280
to understand who we are in Christ, the tools that he's given us in his word. And we can't

160
00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:26,720
focus on all these distractions. We can be watchmen. It's important to be a watchman.

161
00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:30,760
It's important to understand and discern the times. But we can't let the end times happen

162
00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:34,880
to us. We got to happen at the end times, you know. And so that's what I think there's

163
00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:39,880
a shifting, there's a shaking. You've reported on it a lot. You hear a lot of prophetic voices

164
00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:44,640
saying similar things. Many people are talking about war. And I believe we are. I look, I

165
00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:48,080
would be in a dereliction of my duty if I wasn't as a minister of the gospel saying,

166
00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:52,200
hey, it's looking like wars coming there. There's serious things that are happening,

167
00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:57,440
but more so it's a spiritual war. And our job is to be in the Lord Jesus Christ and

168
00:12:57,440 --> 00:13:03,160
to hear from him daily and to be in prayer daily and to make sure that that we don't

169
00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:08,600
let the devil take our joy because the joy of the Lord is our strength. Amen. Amen. I

170
00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:14,000
do want to talk about the wars that are happening right now in just in just a moment. But I

171
00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:20,440
don't want to leave this ditty issue too long because I want you to kind of help people

172
00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:26,120
understand what these parties are. And more specifically, because you said it was a well

173
00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:31,600
known secret. Yeah. And so for me, that's like, that's an issue of discernment. People

174
00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:37,600
are turning a blind eye to something that everybody knows is going on. Therefore, we're

175
00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:44,960
not actually responding appropriately. And really that same mentality or that same negligence

176
00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:51,580
or spiritual blindness has carried over to so many areas. Tell me more about what that

177
00:13:51,580 --> 00:13:55,560
actually meant in Hollywood. Yeah. Well, this is so important because I don't know if you

178
00:13:55,560 --> 00:13:58,640
watched the debate with JD Vance the other day, but you know, they start talking about

179
00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:01,720
guns and things like that. And, you know, I'm not going to get into that too deep. But

180
00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:05,500
one of the things that we never talk about, listen to the rap music that's been going

181
00:14:05,500 --> 00:14:10,120
on for 20 plus years, you know, talking about shooting and, you know, F the police and all

182
00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:14,080
this crazy stuff. Women, you know, just degrading women for some reason, the women's rights

183
00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:17,320
people never say anything about that, you know? And then, you know, meanwhile, they're

184
00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:22,000
calling women all kinds of names and think about is it the is it the gun or is it the

185
00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:27,800
society and the direction of our video games, our TV, our movies, everything that we put

186
00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:31,440
out? I mean, look, I have a five year old and you know, from a young age, I got to watch

187
00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:35,400
what she's looking at on YouTube and things like that, because the content is so violent

188
00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:39,760
and there's so many other things that sexually and all that. So what we've been consuming

189
00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:46,240
as a culture and what we in Hollywood, what they've been putting out for years has crafted

190
00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:51,160
a worldview and a narrative. And that's why I talked about Operation Mockingbird and the

191
00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:55,840
church commissioners, because as a Christian, we have to have eyes to see the full picture.

192
00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:59,880
And so let's go back to Diddy. What would why would somebody have these parties that

193
00:14:59,880 --> 00:15:03,640
they call freak ops? What would be the point of this? Well, there's a lot of reasons.

194
00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:08,320
Number one, it's like an initiation. OK, if you're going to be in this Hollywood elite

195
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:12,540
group, you basically and a lot of people have said this and people think they're crazy,

196
00:15:12,540 --> 00:15:16,380
but you've got to kind of sell your soul. Now, do you ever really sell your soul? No,

197
00:15:16,380 --> 00:15:20,200
because you're redeemable as long as you repent and turn. You know, you got to turn your heart

198
00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:25,920
and life and accept Jesus. So your soul is not sold. But what it is, is they give their

199
00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:32,800
members and they allow their life to to allow open sin and compromise in order to get to

200
00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:38,160
riches, fame, notoriety in the industry. And so what I noticed, John, which I think we

201
00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:42,360
got to talk about it this day and age, is that the folks that are the A-listers, I mean,

202
00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:47,360
look just down the line, you know, you can see every one of these people has given up

203
00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:52,000
something of their of their self, of their soul. You know, they've been willing to do

204
00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:56,720
a naked scene or or live in a way that's not according to the Bible. And some of these

205
00:15:56,720 --> 00:16:01,000
people claim to be Christian. But I've always been at the opinion like if you really are

206
00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:05,200
a consecrated Christian, it's almost going to be impossible to be a Hollywood actor.

207
00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:09,120
You're going to have to be like a Kirk Cameron or somebody that comes out of Babylon system.

208
00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:13,400
Because what I've seen firsthand, and this is where I think I have a unique experience,

209
00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:18,680
is everyone that I've known, including myself, if you want to get to a certain level in Hollywood,

210
00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:22,700
you've got to pay the piper. And what I mean by that is you go to these parties, you do

211
00:16:22,700 --> 00:16:28,360
things that are totally grotesque and perverse, and you open up your members to that. And

212
00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:31,920
so, you know, the Lord protected me of that, but I was just about I mean, if I would have

213
00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:35,640
stayed in there, I probably would have gone there. And that's just because it's a requirement.

214
00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:40,200
That's what happens. Even the young, you know, 16 year olds are dealing with this, you know,

215
00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:44,880
they start drugs at a young age, they deliver promiscuous lifestyle, they drink, and it's

216
00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:49,560
so much deeper than that. It's so much deeper than that. So I believe and this is my opinion

217
00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:54,520
is that a lot of these parties were traps. I mean, basically, you go there, and now you're

218
00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:59,200
on film doing something with someone or whatever. And that's something that they can hold over

219
00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:04,080
your head. And that's the secret that no one wants to talk about. And if you come out and

220
00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:07,640
you talk about it, you're going to be demeaned, you're going to be attacked, they're going

221
00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:11,760
to make up something about you. And you may even, you know, end up like some of these

222
00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:15,640
other people. So this is that's why a lot of people don't talk about it. Because number

223
00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:18,400
one, you're going to be blacklisted, you're not going to not going to be able to do movies

224
00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:21,960
and films, you know, lose millions and millions of dollars, and they may go after you. And

225
00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:27,720
it may even be worse. Yeah. So Todd, I got to ask, did you have opportunities to go to

226
00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:33,520
something like that? Not at that level. But you know, in my young age, I saw parties that

227
00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:38,320
were similar. I mean, you know, people doing drugs and, you know, openly walking around

228
00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:43,520
very, you know, kind of naked ish, you know, you know, I wish I could scrub that for my

229
00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:47,480
mind. But you know, I remember those things. And I felt very, the way that I came to know

230
00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:52,740
the Lord is that I saw the darkness. And when I saw that, and I felt something because my

231
00:17:52,740 --> 00:17:56,600
mom was a prayer warrior, and my grandma, my grandpa, prayer warriors, and so they were

232
00:17:56,600 --> 00:17:59,680
praying me out of this, you know, and I came, you know, I've just been sharing a little

233
00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:03,160
bit more my testimony, but I came from an abusive home. You know, my father was very

234
00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:07,040
abusive, he was very angry. And so, you know, I kind of went into rebellion, I'm not blaming

235
00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:10,840
him. But you know, my parents didn't get along for many years. And so the thing is, is that,

236
00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:14,680
you know, when I went in that world, I thought that was success. That's what the world told

237
00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:18,840
me, you know, to my high school friends, like, here I am rolling into a club with Carmen

238
00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:22,480
Electra, and all these people, you know, in our in our group here. And wow, you know,

239
00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:26,120
I mean, people in high school, like, wow, look at Todd coconut. But I knew that I was

240
00:18:26,120 --> 00:18:30,920
actually living a lie. I knew that my whole life was a lie. And I would sit with some

241
00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:34,000
of these people. And I don't even want to, you know, say all the names, because there's

242
00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:37,760
just too many. But the thing is, I would sit with them, and I'd see, hey, this person's

243
00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:42,760
got the money, they've got the fame, they're broken, they're miserable. And so that was

244
00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:46,360
the Lord was showing me. So the darkness and seeing what would happen at some of these

245
00:18:46,360 --> 00:18:50,440
industry parties and the mansion parties and the clubs and the underground stuff, you know,

246
00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:56,080
it was so wicked and evil. I would actually see demons, john, I would see like demonic

247
00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:58,800
entities and you know, especially if I was under the influence of alcohol, whatever,

248
00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:03,520
I would see them. And so there was a few times I remember being in Vegas, and I got on my

249
00:19:03,520 --> 00:19:07,240
knees and I just started weeping, I didn't even accept the Lord yet. This is before I

250
00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:11,720
even got stabbed. But the thing was, is that I the Lord was showing me the darkness. And

251
00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:15,600
I said, Well, if this darkness is real, I want to find the light I want to, you know,

252
00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:19,840
I want to find the truth. And again, when you start seeking the Lord, you find them,

253
00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:23,240
you know, so that was the beginning of my journey. But I think so many of these people,

254
00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:26,400
I mean, look, what's happening with, you know, some of these celebrities that are coming

255
00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:31,560
out of this dark lifestyle and getting on fire for God, it's like, you know, it's possible,

256
00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:34,560
you know, but the thing is, you got to break away from this whole group.

257
00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:38,880
Yeah, you mentioned people coming out of that. I mean, Russell Brand is the first person

258
00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:44,520
that comes to mind right now. And honestly, it has been such a joy to be able to see his

259
00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:49,400
transformation, especially over the over these last six months, where he's committed his

260
00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:53,640
life to the Lord, he's gotten baptized. Just the other day, he was even baptizing other

261
00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:59,040
people. Now he's on on tour with Tucker Carlson is, I thought it was just supposed to be like

262
00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:04,440
a once thing. But now he's been so popular, they they have him again. But he's talking

263
00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:09,880
about faith. He's talking about Jesus, not just faith, not just God, but specifically

264
00:20:09,880 --> 00:20:15,960
Jesus Christ. That's right. And that is really encouraging to see somebody that I mean, let's

265
00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:20,000
let's face it. I mean, if Jack Sparrow was a real life person, it would have been Russell

266
00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:27,600
Brand. And so but now he's totally sold out for the Lord. And I just pray that, you know,

267
00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:33,240
he continues down that path and the right people are around him. Because as as unfortunately,

268
00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:37,800
we do way too many times as Christians, especially cultural Christians, we put somebody on a

269
00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:43,400
pedestal that came out of Hollywood. That's right. And now we're we're almost just setting

270
00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:48,680
them up for a fall. So what is some advice that you would give Russell Brand, if you

271
00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:51,720
had the opportunity to sit with him and talk with him about that?

272
00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:55,280
These questions are so good. Because what you're saying, I pastored out there in California

273
00:20:55,280 --> 00:20:58,680
for 17 years. And you know, I didn't have a church the whole time as a senior pastor,

274
00:20:58,680 --> 00:21:02,840
but I was out there in the ministry. And one of the things that I noticed is that exactly

275
00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:05,920
what you said is that somebody would get saved from Hollywood, the pastor would put them

276
00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:10,240
like in the VIP, you know, like a VIP section in the church. And a lot of times they wouldn't

277
00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:14,140
really mentor mentor or disciple them, they kind of just be like, Hey, guess who goes

278
00:21:14,140 --> 00:21:18,040
to my church that we can't do that. We've got to make sure that we set these folks up

279
00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:21,920
for success. So you know, someone like a Russell Brand, and I'm so thankful, you know, I actually

280
00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:26,760
have connectivity to him and people I know that knew him pretty well. And it's remarkable.

281
00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:31,600
This is a guy that see, this is the kind of guy when somebody comes out of the world,

282
00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:36,160
and they get radically saved like that. It's the best case scenario because he's all in

283
00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:40,160
I mean, look at this guy, he's like baptizing people, you know, and he's, you know, he's

284
00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:45,900
dealing with and this is the tidy white, he's baptizing people. And so there was some backlash

285
00:21:45,900 --> 00:21:50,840
about that. And here's, here's what's so crazy is I've watched this, I've lived this is when

286
00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:55,280
you see somebody that's so zealous and excited about what's happening. And then here comes

287
00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:58,920
the religious spirit, you know, and here comes, well, you're not doing this right? Or isn't

288
00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:02,960
he part of the Illuminati or you know, and they start and it's like, let this guy just

289
00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:08,080
get in and get solidified and show them the love and get behind him and help mentor him

290
00:22:08,080 --> 00:22:12,480
and pray for him. Like we shoot some of these people before they even get to I mean, I remember

291
00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:16,920
when Kat Von D got saved, and people are getting so angry with me. I'm not saying follow her

292
00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:22,360
as a spiritual, you know, leader, I'm just saying, hey, if she's saying she got baptized,

293
00:22:22,360 --> 00:22:26,160
let's pray for you know, let's let's pray her and if she's not really a Christian yet,

294
00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:31,040
let's pray she becomes a real Christian. But you know, we're so judgmental in this hour.

295
00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:34,480
And I'm not saying that we let Levin in or compromise. But what I'm saying is we've got

296
00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:39,280
to remember the mission. The mission is that type of person. Jesus came for the sinners,

297
00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:43,720
the tax collectors, the worst of the worst, the prostitutes, you know, these are the folks

298
00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:48,840
and this is what this revival is, is that folks like Russell Brent, you got who is it

299
00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:53,120
that was the other day kneeling with him and praying it was Tucker and him and Peterson,

300
00:22:53,120 --> 00:22:57,640
Jordan Peterson, I mean, my goodness, see, Mario wrote a blog about this a few years

301
00:22:57,640 --> 00:23:01,400
ago and I thought it was so good. It was called stolen thunder or something along those lines.

302
00:23:01,400 --> 00:23:05,480
And what it was is that he was saying, look, if the people in the church, if the preachers

303
00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:10,280
and the pastors don't start speaking to these things, God is going to raise up another group

304
00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:15,140
of Russell Brands and Tucker Carlson's and Jordan Peterson's and people that have the

305
00:23:15,140 --> 00:23:19,640
hoods but to actually say what's going on. And that is what we're seeing, john is we're

306
00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:24,000
seeing a changing of the guard and we're seeing like the people that are not willing to address

307
00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:28,400
societal issues that are spiritual matters. We're seeing even in the COVID era, you know,

308
00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:32,200
their ministry, their platform got diminished, you know, and then you saw the folks that

309
00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:36,480
were willing to stand and that stayed open and that push back and these are the people

310
00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:40,520
their ministry is thriving and people are saying, you know, I can get behind this person.

311
00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:44,840
They may not get it right 100% of the time, but at least they have the tenacity and the

312
00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:49,400
boldness to speak to these matters. And so, you know, that's what I'm excited about is

313
00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:53,720
there's a new generation of folks that are bold and are speaking to things that in the

314
00:23:53,720 --> 00:23:57,760
last 30 years, I wish we would have addressed more, but honestly, we didn't.

315
00:23:57,760 --> 00:24:03,600
Yeah, you know, the Pharisees told Jesus to tell the crowds to quiet down and Jesus responded.

316
00:24:03,600 --> 00:24:08,760
He said, I won't tell them that because even if they won't speak, the rocks will cry out.

317
00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:13,200
And I believe what we're seeing right now in society, the church hasn't spoken up the

318
00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:17,780
way that we are called to. We are called to a higher standard, but we haven't been speaking

319
00:24:17,780 --> 00:24:22,160
up in the seven mountains in the seven spheres. We know whatever you want to call it. The

320
00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:26,360
areas of influence that God has called us to occupy until he comes that we have abdicated

321
00:24:26,360 --> 00:24:33,720
instead of occupied. So now the rocks of Russell Brand and Tucker Carlson, who are not polished,

322
00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:37,880
they are very rough around the edges. They are the ones that are that are crying out

323
00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:42,720
who Jesus really is. And they're doing a better job bringing people to Jesus than the churches

324
00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:47,120
in most cases. Yes. So he's got a he's got a press in and just,

325
00:24:47,120 --> 00:24:51,200
you know, find some a good tribe. You know, that's what I had to do. I had to find folks

326
00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:55,680
that believed in me that were for me. And those are the people you align with. And when

327
00:24:55,680 --> 00:24:59,240
that you got the naysayers and the haters, I hate to say it, but they're in the church

328
00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:03,480
to you got to ignore those voices. It's us and God. We've got to hear from him. We've

329
00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:07,200
got to have a personal relationship every day. We've got to be in our prayer closet

330
00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:10,640
every day. We got to be in the word of God, not because we're doing our little time clock

331
00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:15,200
and oh, let me check in because we're getting revelation and because it's the matter. It's

332
00:25:15,200 --> 00:25:19,680
the bread of life. And it's what we need, especially right now. Yeah. You know, I'd

333
00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:24,160
like to talk about the war that's happening in Israel, but I want to touch briefly about

334
00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:29,280
what's going on in your neck of the woods. I mean, you're in Tennessee and the hurricane

335
00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:36,960
Helene has really decimated a lot of the Appalachian area, you know, along up and down there, the

336
00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:43,760
Carolinas. I'm not even sure all the areas, but there's so many areas that are without

337
00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:48,160
power, without food, without transportation. You said, you know, some people in there.

338
00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:53,000
I want to just hear what your thoughts are about that. And unfortunately, we've spent

339
00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:58,600
a lot of money to fund foreign wars, but now people aren't being taken care of at home.

340
00:25:58,600 --> 00:26:04,520
And I think that's a that does show a bigger issue as well. Huge issue. And there's folks

341
00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:07,480
and I'm not saying this, but there are folks that are saying this could be up to a hundred

342
00:26:07,480 --> 00:26:10,560
times worse than Katrina. And I'm like, how could that be? But I think the reason why

343
00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:14,240
they're saying is because the area is so vast. You know, there's a vast area that's been

344
00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:18,640
affected by this. And you got cities like Asheville. It's not Nashville, but Asheville,

345
00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:22,320
which is in the Carolinas. And this place, like an island, I mean, the roads have been

346
00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:26,280
knocked out, the power's out, the Internet's out. People have a hard time getting gas and

347
00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:32,040
resources. The store shelves are empty. This is an American city right now. And the problem

348
00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:36,400
is the response has not been stellar, especially from the Biden administration. You know, I

349
00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:39,000
saw Kamala Harris out there and she would say something like, well, we're going to give

350
00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:42,800
them seven hundred fifty dollars each or something. And well, that's thank you. But you know,

351
00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:47,680
the thing is, like billions of dollars are going over to Ukraine. Meanwhile, Americans

352
00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:52,160
are right now without power, water. I just I know we can do better. I'm thankful for

353
00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:55,760
organizations like Samaritan's Purse and others that are out there on the ground. But our

354
00:26:55,760 --> 00:27:00,240
government, I have to say, I mean, I think they finally called in some of the military

355
00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:04,560
over there, but it's been a slow reaction. And unfortunately, there's there's a lot of

356
00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:08,920
more deaths probably that haven't been reported yet. And that's very concerning to hear about.

357
00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:15,080
So I'm just I'm saddened, John, to see the response from our government. And we need

358
00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:17,720
to keep these folks in prayer. We're trying to do everything that we can because it's

359
00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:22,040
right in our backyard, not too far from where we are here in Nashville. Only a few hours.

360
00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:26,040
So we're doing our part as a ministry. I know many others like my friend Alan Didio is doing

361
00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:30,560
a lot of work there and some others in the area are doing as well. They think, you know,

362
00:27:30,560 --> 00:27:34,720
it's the churches and I'm thankful, you know, support your local church, especially the

363
00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:38,440
church that's willing to get involved in these types of things, because, you know, ultimately

364
00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:41,920
in the in the in the beginning of our country, it was the church that was so involved in

365
00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:45,760
every aspect of culture. And, you know, I love when these folks try to say, you know,

366
00:27:45,760 --> 00:27:49,680
oh, the seven mountain, that's, you know, this and that. And they're trying to what

367
00:27:49,680 --> 00:27:53,280
what is unbiblical about Christians occupying? What is that? But when you when you look at

368
00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:57,360
the word, Akbala in the Greek, which is to go, it's go out, cast out, drive out. That's

369
00:27:57,360 --> 00:28:01,280
literally what we're meant to do as a Christian. So what part of society should we stay out

370
00:28:01,280 --> 00:28:04,240
of the schools? Should we stay out of the government? Well, then you get the mess that

371
00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:07,560
we're in right now. You know, you take God out of everything. And that's why we're having

372
00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:11,360
the problem we are. So I think, you know, I was just talking to Floyd Brown is a friend

373
00:28:11,360 --> 00:28:15,320
of mine, he is Western Journal. And we were just talking, there's got to be more unity

374
00:28:15,320 --> 00:28:19,560
in the body. And I'm not saying to unify with heretics or, you know, people that are not

375
00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:23,680
really Christian, I'm saying for brethren, we got to stop bickering about as a woman

376
00:28:23,680 --> 00:28:28,980
allowed to be a minister. And when is the tribulation? And these are doctrinal variances,

377
00:28:28,980 --> 00:28:33,560
but they're not salvation issues. And meanwhile, the world is going crazy. And so I really

378
00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:38,240
feel like this is a time where we got to, you know, focus on the 98% that we agree on

379
00:28:38,240 --> 00:28:43,800
us of the 2% that we don't, and stop bashing each other and all this other stuff that's

380
00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:48,040
flesh that's gotten into the body. We got to we got to purge that in the name of Jesus

381
00:28:48,040 --> 00:28:53,200
and really remember that listen, there's a spiritual battle that's going on for our nation,

382
00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:57,720
for our children for this next generation. And it's high time the people of God get

383
00:28:57,720 --> 00:29:02,280
involved. And we stop fighting amongst each other. Yeah, you know, there's, there's a

384
00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:06,400
lot of fighting internally with the within the body of Christ. But now there's a lot

385
00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:11,440
of fighting externally. We've got the war then in Russia and Ukraine that is continuing

386
00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:16,000
to go on. And the war that it's in Israel, it's it's it's almost a year that it's been

387
00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:25,880
that it's been fighting solid and the Iran has now fired missiles into into Israel. The

388
00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:35,360
times the Revelation, everything really centers on Israel. Are we seeing these pages turn

389
00:29:35,360 --> 00:29:39,160
in Revelation right now? Tell me what you think Todd, I believe so. I mean, you look

390
00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:42,200
at the Euphrates River, it's drying up. We just had friends of mine that were over there

391
00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:45,960
that were filming this, you got the red heifers in Israel. But even more so you got Israel

392
00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:50,360
surrounded. There was just a sidebar meeting of the nations that many have considered to

393
00:29:50,360 --> 00:29:55,040
be what could potentially be the Gog and Magog scenario, you know, that are now aligning.

394
00:29:55,040 --> 00:29:58,960
I mean, you see alignments with with certain countries that are now coming into, you know,

395
00:29:58,960 --> 00:30:03,480
I mean, look at Turkey, Turkey is a member of NATO. And meanwhile, they're siding against

396
00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:08,000
Israel, you know, so there's two very distinct differences between the two wars that are

397
00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:12,840
being fought. One's a proxy war that I personally don't feel we should be engaged in. It's

398
00:30:12,840 --> 00:30:17,680
it's really just a billions of dollars being sent over there. We've seen really no victory

399
00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:22,240
in it at all in a year. I mean, you can look at the line, if anything, we've lost territory

400
00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:26,120
over there. But you know, what is what is the purpose? And and you know, so much resources

401
00:30:26,120 --> 00:30:29,500
and finances and on and on are being sent over there. And then you have what's going

402
00:30:29,500 --> 00:30:35,720
on in Israel, which is a much different situation. Israel is a target and they're a key ally.

403
00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:39,840
And I think it is imperative that America stands with Israel. I mean, if you you know,

404
00:30:39,840 --> 00:30:43,040
a lot of people have been trying to change my mind on this, you know, and they say, well,

405
00:30:43,040 --> 00:30:47,280
you know, the Bible is not talking about political Israel. But just think about this, OK, when

406
00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:51,680
the Battle of Armageddon happens, who's the Lord going to side with? OK, I mean, we know

407
00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:56,680
how this ends. So why would we ever want to side against the nation of Israel, the people

408
00:30:56,680 --> 00:31:00,400
of Israel? I know that there's a deep state there just like there is here. But the thing

409
00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:04,640
is, is that we still got to follow the Bible. And Israel is part of God's redemption plan

410
00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:09,480
for all mankind. And so we are seeing I mean, I wake up every morning like which which part

411
00:31:09,480 --> 00:31:13,840
of Revelation are we going to see today? You know, it's literally leaping off the pages.

412
00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:18,040
And I think it's the most exciting time to be alive. But you know, that that is a war

413
00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:22,280
that I believe is a spiritual war. It's probably going to continue. In fact, we know it will,

414
00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:26,080
according to the Bible, until the Lord gets us out of here. And even after that. But the

415
00:31:26,080 --> 00:31:30,280
bottom line is we got to pray for the peace of Jerusalem. And we have to understand and

416
00:31:30,280 --> 00:31:34,160
discern these times that we're in. I think it's imperative that America stands with Israel.

417
00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:37,920
I believe it's one of the reasons why this country has been spared. If you think of all

418
00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:41,560
the things that could have potentially happened in these last couple of months, the fact that

419
00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:47,200
we stand with Israel is is a key factor. And if you recall during the Katrina period, they

420
00:31:47,200 --> 00:31:50,920
were trying to split the two state solution, everything and we had Katrina, you know, so

421
00:31:50,920 --> 00:31:55,040
it's just interesting prophetically how some of these things have played out over the years.

422
00:31:55,040 --> 00:32:00,440
So I love the fact that President Trump is a staunch supporter of Israel. I think that

423
00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:03,680
we need to continue to pray. But I think these next couple of months is going to continue

424
00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:08,440
to escalate. Yeah. You know, I was just going to ask you, you know, what do you see prophetically

425
00:32:08,440 --> 00:32:13,920
about that? And I think you laid out a really, really good case there. I mean, it's a, you

426
00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:17,960
know, it's not necessarily a thus saith the Lord, but it's a I can read this in the headlines

427
00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:21,520
and I can read this in the Bible and it seems to be matching up. I don't need a thus saith

428
00:32:21,520 --> 00:32:26,640
the Lord voice, audible voice whenever you have a have it in written word. You know,

429
00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:31,160
Todd, these are tumultuous times we've we have the exposure happening in Hollywood and

430
00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:35,920
within the church. We've got this weather situation that, you know, it seems like there

431
00:32:35,920 --> 00:32:41,160
are even more hurricanes that are forming that could be potential landfall and cause

432
00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:46,120
more damage. We've got an election going on. We've got wars that are going on in, in Israel

433
00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:51,720
and in Ukraine. You know, I don't want to leave this moment without asking you to just

434
00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:57,720
pray for the peace of Jerusalem, for the peace in our hearts and that we would be salt and

435
00:32:57,720 --> 00:33:01,560
light in this dark time. That's right. And that is the most important thing is that we

436
00:33:01,560 --> 00:33:05,120
have to have what the Bible talks about that peace that passes understanding. And we know

437
00:33:05,120 --> 00:33:09,040
we're in this world. We're not of this world to live as Christ to die as game. And God's

438
00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:12,720
given us promises. He says he's with us until the end of the age. He'll never leave us.

439
00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:16,920
He'll never forsake us. And so I want to just pray for you right now. Don't be distracted.

440
00:33:16,920 --> 00:33:20,600
The Lord gave me a word the other day. I'm sure this before we pray real quick. He said,

441
00:33:20,600 --> 00:33:24,440
don't worry about what might happen because the thing is, there's a lot of videos, there's

442
00:33:24,440 --> 00:33:28,040
a lot of reporting and it's good. We got to be watchmen. We've got to be informed, but

443
00:33:28,040 --> 00:33:32,240
don't stay in that place. We got to stay in the secret place at the most high. And that

444
00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:37,720
is where we find rest and peace and joy. And this is a time for us to be about the Jesus

445
00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:41,600
revolution, not the revolution that's happening in the world. So let me pray for you, Lord.

446
00:33:41,600 --> 00:33:45,760
We just thank you for everybody that's watching today. And I just pray, Lord, I thank you

447
00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:49,880
that you really guided this conversation. I pray that we hit points that really awaken

448
00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:53,840
folks and stirred their spirit. But most of all, Lord, I pray for this group that they

449
00:33:53,840 --> 00:33:58,920
would indeed have that peace, that they would find rest in you, the shalom of your spirit,

450
00:33:58,920 --> 00:34:02,480
Lord God, that every day they'd wake up and say, Lord, how can I be about your business?

451
00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:06,520
Lord, and this is such an important time. You're raising up David's and Esther's in

452
00:34:06,520 --> 00:34:11,120
this hour. You're raising up people that are about your business and have your heart. And

453
00:34:11,120 --> 00:34:15,760
so Lord, I just thank you for your protection. I pray great favor over everybody that's watching.

454
00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:19,680
I pray blessing and abundance while the world is going crazy. I pray they'd have their most

455
00:34:19,680 --> 00:34:24,720
prosperous and blessed season of their life. Yes, it can happen. Your word says it, Lord.

456
00:34:24,720 --> 00:34:28,480
We believe that that's your promise to your people, Lord God. And so we just thank you

457
00:34:28,480 --> 00:34:32,360
and Lord, I want to pray for the peace of Jerusalem. I want to pray that this war is

458
00:34:32,360 --> 00:34:36,440
ended. I want to pray that people are spared. We thank you that even with this missile attack,

459
00:34:36,440 --> 00:34:40,120
the other day that it could have been a million times worse, Lord, but for the most part,

460
00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:44,840
it was it was amazing military success for Israel and the Iron Dome and David's slaying

461
00:34:44,840 --> 00:34:49,760
and United States. But Lord, we pray for protection for the people of Israel. We pray for protection

462
00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:54,720
for America. And these next couple of weeks, as we get ready to go into our elections here,

463
00:34:54,720 --> 00:34:59,960
I pray supernaturally that the wicked plans will be thwarted in the name of Jesus. I pray,

464
00:34:59,960 --> 00:35:04,200
Lord, that the church would be as we're meant to be the restraining force against the wicked

465
00:35:04,200 --> 00:35:08,600
plans of the enemy. And so I just pray, Lord God, that everybody on here would find a rest

466
00:35:08,600 --> 00:35:15,040
and a peace in you in Jesus name. Amen. Amen. Amen. Todd, coconut. Thank you so much for

467
00:35:15,040 --> 00:35:20,000
taking the time to share about these share insight about these very critical issues that

468
00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:23,880
we have going on in our world today. Thank you, John. Thank you for what you do. I appreciate

469
00:35:23,880 --> 00:35:34,440
you.
