For many, the Book of Revelation is the "scary" finale of the Bible—a dense thicket of terrifying beasts, cataclysmic plagues, and cryptic warnings that seem more like a fever dream than a spiritual guide.

Many often avoid it, assuming its complexities are too disturbing or irrational for our modern sensibilities. It’s the book that makes many people uncomfortable.

Yet there is a profound irony in recoiling from a text written on a remote, rocky island two millennia ago.

Why would the visions of an exiled apostle matter in our high-tech, chaotic 21st century?

The truth is that this "grand finale" is not a script for fear. If you’re reading Revelation as a horror story, designed to scare the living daylights out of you, you are missing the point entirely.

Ultimately, the Book of Revelation is a message of "HOPE and TRUST.

Take this deep dive with us into the book of Revelation – A Valid Prophecy. It’s a fascinating look at how ancient prophecy is used to decode modern chaos. It lets us know that Jesus is Coming Soon!

In our culture, marriage is often treated as a legal contract—an agreement between two people that can be torn up when the terms are no longer satisfying. But "Holy Matrimony" is a "Covenant". It is a sacred relationship designed and sanctioned by God, our Creator and Maker.

A Covenant is a sacred vow witnessed by God and made to God in the presence of witnesses... for Christians it is the most sacred solemn agreement that one can make between a man and a woman. When you keep God as the center, your motivation for staying together shifts from "what do I get", to honoring a vow made to the Almighty.

Too many homes have transformed from sanctuaries of peace into battlegrounds, a competition of wills, or a slow, agonizing degrading of character. When a relationship feels like a burden, many couples conclude that divorce is the only exit.

However, many marriages dissolve not because they are inherently broken beyond repair, but because they were "unequally yoked" from the very beginning. By building on worldly concepts and the selfish pursuit of "what is good for me", couples unknowingly set a foundation that cannot sustain the weight of life.

To restore a troubled union, you must look beyond secular advice and return to the original design of "Holy Matrimony." Marriage God's Way.

We realize that some marriages were never meant to be. The question is asked: “What’s Love Got To Do With It”? In many cases, the answer is “Nothing”. It wasn’t Love that brought you together, but rather, what we call “intoxicating affections”, which don't last.

However, if that is not the case, and you are willing to yield to God's will and way for your marriage, pray the "Prayer for Marriage Restoration" that you will hear us pray for you in this episode, or pray your own prayer. Although we are praying for you, know that the best person to pray for you is "you". Ask God to restore your marriage. With Him, all things are possible to them that believe.

Are you on the brink of saying 'I Do'? Have you considered the solemnity of these words and the commitment they imply?

Ask yourselves:

Are We Ready for Marriage?

How Compatible Are We?

Are we Ready for Intimacy, Commitment, The Marriage Bed?

What About the In-laws?

Are we prepared to relinquish our selfishness?

Are we ready to put the other partner's well-being first?

Are we willing to remain faithful?

Do you want to wake up to this person for the rest of your life?

Many couples are intoxicated by the pageantry of wedding planning but are eventually sobered by the silence of the morning after. They spend months planning a ceremony while failing to spend a single hour planning for the institution itself. They have not taken the time to have candid open discussion as to what happens after the wedding.

Planning your wedding is important, but so is planning your marriage. If you have not planned the marriage with the same intensity you used to plan the rehearsal dinner, you are building on sand, and not on a solid rock.

In this episode, we want to invoke couples contemplating marriage to dig deeper into these questions before tying the knot. Listen to this guidance, advice and food for thought, before you say, "I DO".

Elder Randall Ogans Sr....

The divine majesty of God is revealed through both the natural world and sacred scripture. The heavens and the sun are silent witnesses to the Creator's power, while the Law of the Lord is a perfect guide for reviving the human soul.

We live in an age of architectural instability—not of our buildings, but of our souls.

Psalm 19 is a masterclass in spiritual architecture. It offers a sophisticated geometry of the soul, constructing a bridge between the staggering vastness of the cosmos and the intimate landscape of the human heart. It suggests that the same principles governing the rotation of the stars are available to provide moral infrastructure for our daily lives.

The universe’s most profound communication requires no vocabulary. The sky is a picturesque firmament, a massive, frameless never-ending sky that serves as a wordless universal language.

When the "noise" of life becomes too loud, observing the elaborate intricate canvas of the heavens acts as a frequency reset. It is a form of communication that pours forth speech without the limitations of human grammar, making infinite wisdom accessible to everyone, everywhere.

By shifting our gaze from the clutter of the immediate to the "picturesque firmament" of the eternal, we can find the original frequency required to properly navigate through this maze of life.

If the entire universe is speaking a silent language of glory, what is your life currently whispering back?

God Is Always Speaking. Are We Listening?

Our world is currently a masterclass in "pandemonium and mayhem". It's easy to feel that our current state of moral decline and "heart-wrenching despair" is unprecedented.

However, the Prophet Isaiah stood in a nearly identical gap, speaking to a society drowning in civic confusion, rebellion, and a "land becoming a wasteland." He understood that the chaos outside, is often a reflection of a spiritual foundation that has been neglected or dismantled.

Reclaiming your joy in this whirlwind is not a passive luxury; it is a strategic act of spiritual warfare. Joy is not a byproduct of your circumstances, but a deliberate choice to remain stayed on the Divine.

Joy is your most targeted asset. Consider your joy as the spiritual currency the world is constantly trying to devalue. It is the most invaluable thing you possess, which is exactly why it is the primary target of orchestrated entrapments.

The enemy uses everything from emotional distress to physical trials to "steal your joy," knowing that if your joy goes, your standard of living and your principles are soon to follow.

In this episode, we want to talk about “Getting Your Joy Back”

Today you look at the world and see arrogant, wicked people thriving, seemingly without consequence. They boast, they scheme, and their paths prosper while the vulnerable and righteous suffer. This experience can be profoundly frustrating and confusing, leaving us with a sense of unease and a pressing question that echoes through the ages.

Where is God in times of trouble?

Psalm 10 explores the timeless struggle between good and evil, focusing on why the wicked often seem to flourish despite their arrogance. It is a passionate plea for divine intervention, assuring believers that even when God appears distant, He remains omniscient and attentive to the suffering of the oppressed.

We are encouraged to resist reacting with malice and instead maintain spiritual discipline through prayer, discernment, and trust in divine justice.

In this episode, we draw parallels to contemporary global and political conflicts, emphasizing that pride eventually leads to downfall while divine sovereignty ensures a final victory for the humble.

Conflict, arrogance, confusion, division, are timeless spiritual problems. It is true what’s said in James 3: “For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work.”

However, in the face of confusion and evil works, know that you can rely on the ultimate truth. The Lord is Sovereign and Supreme. We can have confidence in His triumph over evil.

Remember:

The LORD is slow to anger, and great in power, and will not at all acquit the wicked (Nahum 1:3)

The wisdom offered in Proverbs 3 points toward a different kind of life and a different kind of richness. It replaces the pursuit of self-knowledge with trust, material wealth with spiritual peace, and fleeting feelings with enduring love.

It promises a "rich spiritual inheritance" for those who choose its path—one composed of "long life," "honor," "pleasant ways," and "peace," all held together by a love that "NEVER FAILS."

The wisdom of Ecclesiastes offers a timeless lens to re-evaluate our present struggles. It suggests that our feeling of living through "unprecedented" times is a trick of perspective.

By understanding that our social chaos is a symptom of the spiritual emptiness King Solomon personally diagnosed, we can begin to look for solutions that are equally enduring.

The ancient text pushes us to consider that the answers to today's most complex problems may not lie in the future, but in the accumulated wisdom of the past.

If our most pressing problems are not new, could it be that the most effective solutions are not new either?

"What has been will be again, what has been done will be done again; there is nothing new under the sun."
