Thank you for this video! I’ve recently read about Balaam and Balek but I didn’t understand why God told him to go and the was angered against him but your all’s explanation from the spirit has made me understand and it is very relatable so it makes sense.
Thank you for sharing not only the what but the how. As a believer I am sad that other believers see the need to attack and label ministers and ministries. Information is not always redemptive. But prayer from a humble place is always redemptive. There is no such gifting as a self appointed church critic.
This one made me cry. When God called me to ministry, it was so hard because I'm a traditional Christian and I'm not comfortable with women in ministry. It's also so very frighting. I'm so afraid of messing up or doing something wrong. I don't want to fail the Lord. However, it's become very obvious why I'm a woman called to do what he needs me to do. I need to be a mother in ministry.
Within the weekly assembly and congregational meetings, only men who have one wife and who rule their households well are authorized to rule in God's churches as leaders. Women can prophecy at the gate of weekly assembly, speak and prophecy in meetings in the home, and evangelize. Older women are also commanded to teach younger women. Godly headship. (1 Corinthians 11, v. 3) "But I want you to know that the head of every man is Christ, the head of woman is man, and the head of Christ is God."
Dear LilRavenWolf, you will hear mostly from conservative protestants and Catholics that women aren't allowed to run a ministry etc. They butcher the interpretation of many verses and call every woman who opposes their views feminists. Funny enough many men of God got also a revelation that women can lead ministries. Do they call them feminists too? I usually laugh when men think God is impressed with 'gender' to do His work on earth😊. As if your sex makes you more spirit led than others. I studied this topic and still do a lot and would recommend you two books: Bob Edwards Apostle's Warning and Jay Eldon Epp 'Junia the first woman apostle'. Bob Edwards also has a workshop course on his website 'awakedeborah' with a book, going much deeper on the verses dealing with man vs woman and 'head of' and authority and women teaching men. Also Marg Mowczko, specialised in early Jewish and Christian studies, has a great blog on these matters. She is born again and led by the Holy Spirit. Also her comment thread is interesting to read as one can find pearls in there by other spirit filled christians as well. I can write a lot about it but go study yourself and be encouraged.

This podcast is powerful. Reminds me of your book, Thus Saith the Lord. Both your book above and this podcast are needed words for us today. Thank you.
There is a difference between thoughts and intents of the heart (Heb. 4:12). We can have the correct intension but our thoughts betray us because it is contrary to the word of God (Gal. 5:17). Many preachers, prophets, teachers, laymen start off with the right intension but soon are led astray by their own lust of power, greed, fame, recognition and pride (which Satan exploits). They may never of had pure motives, difficult to say, their fruit will bear witness however it may take time to recognize the fruit as being good or bad. One of my favorite books by John Bevere is "Thus Saith The Lord". It doesn't get as much accolades as his other books, probably because of the subject matter, but nonetheless a great book. I really appreciate John Bevere's ministry I have learned so much from him.
I really appreciate your authenticity and teaching of the word ,especially covering topics relevant to the times we live in. I have Lisa’s book on pre order also. Blessings from NZ
15:01 Thank you!!! I just gave that example about the devil tempting Jesus to throw himself from a high altitude and the response was that one shall not test the Lord our God. That has been the message that I received with respect to criticism of the scary movies that have been coming out with Christian themes. It's like yes we have faith and we have recovering of God if we're strong in our walk, however why jump into a burning building if you don't have to? Thank you for giving me confirmation that I'm hearing God, and that as a new Christian I'm going about it the right way. I am so glad to have found this podcast. I read your book for a leadership class in church which is the bait of Satan and I got to say it's one of the best books I've ever read!
I couldn't wait to listen. Grew up in a holiness church. There are still some of us around. Loved your first book way back 30 years ago. Glad I found your channel.
33:30 - Self-appointment for Ministry happened in the OT, and in the NT. One common aspect that denotes the both is that individuals choose man's will over God's will. OT self-appointment was based on earthly heritage, and other attributes, whilst in Jesus time, it was a based around political groups in Jerusalem (pharisees & sanhedrin). Today, we can see self appointment occurring at our churches and by church organisations. Appointment for ministry should be spiritually guided by the Holy Spirit and not done hastily. 1 Timothy 5,22 (AMP) Do not hurry to lay hands on anyone [ordaining and approving someone for ministry or an office in the church, or in reinstating expelled offenders], and thereby share in the sins of others; keep yourself free from sin.
I so appreciate this particular series. The Lord has put this very subject matter on my heart for the past year and I'm super thankful you are teaching into this truth of what Jesus warned us about!
Thanks for sharing Brother in Christ 🙂 I love watching & listening to end times related things. Been reading and studying Daniel, Revelation and related rapture and 2nd coming scriptures since getting saved 45 yrs ago at 15. And it is amazing to see so many prophecy's being fulfilled right before our very eyes..... This is the generation that has seen Israel become a nation that will see Jesus !!! We will be Harpatzo-ed , Rapturo-ed, caught up, snatched, taken by force, very, very soon. I can feel it in my spirit-man, that we the BABY-BOOMerz will taken before the 7 year tribulation. Maranatha , Come Jesus Come. See yall in the clouds with our BRAND NEW BODIES. The future with God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit is going to be so EPIC, off the charts fantastic. And then theres the Marriage Supper Of The Lamb.... YES, YES, YES are yous getting excited yet, because you should be, unless you dont have a pulse or have flat lined ! ! ! Just cant wait............
Have you read Matthew 24, Mark 13, and Luke 21? Or are the scriptures you've read from a man with his explanation? Ask the Holy Spirit to teach you, then please read Matthew 24:29-31, this is Jesus telling us what to expect and the sequence of events. After is what Jesus tells us. Mark 13:24-27, Luke 21:25-27.
Hi John, thank you for your willingness to approach this topic, I pray that the Lord will continue to use you and your family, but I also pray for His protection over you all. A few days ago the Holy Spirit led me to feel a glimpse of His heartbreak because of how many Christians live Christianity without God. Just like in the garden of Eden, God will have us always be put in front of a choice the tree of Life (relationship with Him) or the tree of Knowledge(worldly centered wisdom, self help). Sadly many Christians are being deceived and are regularly feeding themselves from the Tree of Self Help and call it God's will, in this way pursuing what they think is a good thing and serves God, instead of seeking God for guidance. Please prayerfully consider and ask God if this might be something that you can discuss at some point
This is encouraging, I’ve recently had an angel of light come to me in a trance and tell me that I was going to die with a voice I thought was a messenger from God. This drove me to depression and fear but after sometime realized that this wasn’t from God, either way Romans 14:8 is my assurance that whichever this way goes I’m secure in Christ.
The fruit of that visit was the proof it was not from God, fear and depression are from Satan. Fruit from a visit from our Father will produce peace, joy, love, relief...
Mr Bevere, Enjoying your podcast. Surprised and pleased to see a Pentecostal teach thru scripture in an expositional way. Well done. It addresses hard passages like today.
You said people don't go "I can't wait to listen to that". But that's not particularly true. I really needed to listen to this, so thank you for being obedient and for talking about what we really need to hear.
I choose to have my faith anchored in the finished work of calvary...my family is finally basking in God's provisions ($57k bimonthly). God has shone his countenance upon us
I raised 57k and Kathleen Mary Vella is to be thanked. I got myself my dream car just last weekend. My journey with her started after my best friend came back from New York and saw my helpless state
In regard to waiting on God, I have a powerful testimony. In the early 2000s I was out preaching the gospel on the street. I knew that I was supposed to be waiting on God, but I thought maybe I was supposed to "act" a bit first. One day, I'm heading out to preach and I hear "You know you can do nothing without me, right?". Wakeup call!
I used to hate it when God spoke to me like that because I wanted him to be my simp daddy but I am so grateful now. The most recent incident is a few weeks ago I met this guy that moved into one of the rooms he's literally my next door neighbour at this flat. I was crushing HARD and his personality was just drawing me in and I was like he is everything I dream of 🙂↕️ Lies 🙄🤦🏾♂️ Then one day I heard him having the same chatty loud convos with another girl and I was HURT 😂 I cried for days 😂 And I was mad at God 😅 Don't ask me why 🤦🏾♂️ By the way before I came here I was hearing I will find my husband here so I thought it gotta be him, and so in my mind he was already stepping out from our marriage 😂😂😂 Anyway after a few days of just being a whole mess and I was starting to get my life together I had a dream I was in a bus, I demanded the driver to stop so I could get off and he told me no but your stop is ahead we're not there yet, next thing I was walking in this dusty road with HUGE pot holes filled with muddy water so much you can't see the depth of it but in my dream head I knew if I stepped in I'd drown cause they so deep, I was holding on to a rope as I try to navigate the potholes and I woke up. I just knew what God was saying and I was like when will I ever learn to just trust God right off the bat 🤦🏾♂️ After that dream I start seeing things after things about him, how much of a drunk he is, he was actually having a fling with this girl (she has a bf we see him all the time), then I saw him walking out his "real" gf and him and this girl that lives here don't talk anymore or sneak into each other's rooms anymore etc All I'm saying is I don't know how I ever lived without these convictions and warning from God. (I didn't live, God had to tell me Talitha koum when he came to save me because that's how dead I was. Cool salvation story for another day) They are EVERYTHING!!! God bless ❤
I love the humility sir. Only if the Lord's in it, amen! Increase my discernment, Lord! Since my supernatural encounter's with God, I have been treated like Joseph, but I'll continue to serve the Lord and walk by faith. Shield up! I don't want any money for teaching Christ, it should be free to spread the gospel!
John, thank you SO MUCH! for this teaching!!! These rightly divided truths and pure motives behind them is so very DESPERATELY NEEDED these days!!! I prayed with you repenting and asking for His truths, His way and ALL for His gain.! All I desire is to be pleasing to God!!! May He richly bless you in all things to fill His kingdom with all that is rightly His in Jesus's Name!!! 🙏
Numbers don’t mean success! This is so powerful. God may my success be in the lives impacted out of my obedience to you. Lord may my focus be on you and walking as you direct. Lord search my heart and remove all selfish motives and replace and fill with the Holy Spirit. Holy Spirit- guide me. Lord give me eyes to see and ears to hear. Lord set me apart. Lord I only want you have for me. Lord if you are not in it remove me because my life is dependent on you. God send me.
The Bible is supernatural. A relationship with Jesus is supernatural. I started a three day fast this morning. Thank you for this message. I'm 47 years old, make $27,000 a month and am retired. This video really inspired me in many ways!!!
Wow...I know her too she is a licensed broker and a FINRA agent she is popular in US and Canada she is really amazing woman with good skills and experience.
I'm a Seer with over 27 years of experience in the prophetic. The subject of false prophets can be complex and difficult to discern but here's my take. Years back I asked God about false prophets and he gave me a dream that night. In the dream I walked in a book store and saw many books on shelves with the covers exposed. On the covers of these books were faces of people many I could recognize. All these books were about self help and so on. Then I heard a loud voice shout saying IT'S THE ANOINTING THAT BREAKS THE YOKE!. I awoke from the dream with understanding. God was saying many will claim to have the anointing that will break your yoke, whatever that my be like health wellness prosperity money ect. False Prophets are literally snake oil salesman. False Prophets are in the church just as much as in the world. Some deceive knowingly while others deceive unknowingly. The false prophets who deceive unknowingly are worse for they believe what they do is good and come across sincere and confident. But no matter how much you expose these false prophets and having evidence to back up your claim people will still follow those false prophets. I can tell which prophets in the church are false and some you might believe but others you would be offended at the notion.
the anointing is on the Word of God. If it’s not Gods Word it’s not the anointing. So many teachings of men that confuse and mislead people. Read the Word and you will know the truth!
The one major gift the Church in general is lacking big time is DISCERNMENT. That is why these Mega Entertainment Facilities Churches are flourishing and people are marching into hell.😥😥😥
This is such an eye opener. Great teaching indeed. Just love every bit of it. Solid faith building, life transforming teaching. To God be the glory 🎉❤🙏 Thank you John and Arden Bevere ❤
Hallelujah!!!! The daily Jesus devotional has been a huge part of my transformation, God is good, after years of addiction to drugs and sins God chased me down as I earn $112,500 monthly. My life and family has changed, Thank you Jesus!!!!
I so appreciate these pod casts. This one in particular is such an important topic. I had the privilege of reading your book "Thus Saith The Lord" about 20 years ago. It really impacted me as a young man, because the Lord was revealing the same to me. He was showing me how so many in the charismatic realm are not just false prophets, they are literally receiving the devil himself as an angel of light. The majority of the charismatic/prophetic movement is not of God. It's so saddening. But this podcast is truth, prophets are there for our "upbuilding" (1 Cor 14:3), and so many stop there in understanding the purpose of a prophet. But in the very same chapter Paul continues to expound that they are there to "convict" (1 Cor 14:24-25). If people would just know the entire word of God, they'd not be deceived. If God is unchanging, then His prophets will be the same today as they were in the OT. And the #1 thing they were commissioned to do is to rebuke and chasten for sin. We also have false prophets who chastise those who should not be, who struggling, and yet make out the rest of the sinful body as being so holy and right with God. Many times though, we'll also see false doctrine on the other side, believing that our holiness saves us. Holiness is a fruit, not a seed. Faith is the seed, which, over time will produce more and more fruit. To judge/condemn those who are struggling with addictions or whatever is sooooo terrible it's mind blowing as well. Jesus came to heal those who are sick.
To Mr.Bevere: Respect. I've never really liked it either. I've always thought many churches are merely businesses and that working for God should be out of love. On the other hand, you need to survive also. Good for you. God bless 🧡🙏🏽
I would love for you two to speak about prophets and prophesying in today times. Like are there people whose "job" is prophet? Or if not, what is their role nowadays? It would help me a lot to know more about it! (I'm loving the Podcasts by the way!)
As a child a long time ago I prayed to God to become like Moses or someone in the Bible. Someone that brings a great vast multitude to Christ. I knew it was a dangerous prayer. That if answered terrible things might happen to me. I did not demand it of God to answer it. I did not really want God to answer it. I simply said I will go, if you call me. But, please help me remember my prayer, because of the depth of my doubt. Because if something like that comes to pass I will not be able to believe it unless I remember my prayer. 40 years of forgetfulness.
May God have mercy and I thank Him for the various gifts in the body of Christ. I am a lay person when it involves the gospel but I am also God's child and therefore God speaks to me. I study, pray and read my bible with all fervency and God's anointing. I pray that He keeps me from idols and deception. I also pray that He provides what I need to serve Him acceptably. I pray that He keeps me from the love of money by giving me what I am capable of stewarding. It is good to receive blessings as long as they do not come between us and God. The love of money is the root of all evil. God is good, kind and merciful. He did not come to condemn the world but to save it. It seems sufficient to collect an offering as instructed in the bible. I use the word collection instead of resorting to a "prosperity teaching." I just think prosperity appeals to the flesh and to people who want to use the gospel for financial gain. Ultimately God is our final judge and He will tell us where to go.
I was in a church with a narcissistic pastor and the only thing she preached was about sin. 90% of the time she "prophesied" about sin, and she was a false teacher, preacher, prophet and everything else. We never heard her talk about the grace or love of God. and our lives were destroyed because of the fear, manipulation, intimidation and all the rest. Now she is in Hope Chapel, Ontario, California. She leads a Spanish church.
32:10 - Biblically, success is doing and completing God's will for one's life. Ephesians 2:10 - For we are God's handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.
The sweep of Calvinism is a bane on today’s churches. We have to test all teaching against scripture. God loves all. He died for all. He is not willing that any should perish.
Sad so many people don't read the Bible. Actually study the word while praying and asking God questions and letting him lead you to the answers through the word and honorable men and women of God. People need to stop only getting your learning from a pastor, your Christian friend or social media clips. Stop just taking their word for it. When I hear truth it is confirmed in my heart only because I have word and the Holy Spirit in me. But when you're clueless you're swayed like a leaf in the wind. Pray for understanding before you read the word and ask God questions. Every message you hear go back and read the scriptures. You'll get more out of the word because there are things you are pondering in your heart. I was one of those believers. So I'm in no way being insulting. It has changed my life and I'm no longer afraid of false teachings. But I'm careful.
John, Mr. Engineer, I bet you’ll appreciate this. The magnitude of our sin increases proportionally to the square of the distance from the Father. Similarly, the magnitude of our holiness is inversely proportional to the square of our distance to the Father.
Don’t be surprised when you send your kids to Caesar, that they come back Romans…. I for one don’t want this government raising my children. Our 6 children go to a homeschool hybrid, we homeschool them 2-3 days, then they go to a private Christian academy 2-3 days. It’s a way WAY better system than what I grew up with in public school. And it lines up with the two days my wife works as an RN. The days we homeschool, the kids do their work quick and then work with me the rest of the day farming, training tracking hounds for clients, and fixing up our rental units. The school has small business fairs teaching kids the skills to make their own businesses. Almost daily our kids are dreaming up new ideas and they’re excited about them, at a young age!!! Instead of our kids playing video games all day and gaining a false sense of accomplishment, they can get the same or better dopamine dump when achieving real accomplishments! Praise God this is an option for my house
Another thing is that he misleads people into believing that if they step into the confessional & confess their sins that they will be forgiven.He doesn't have the authority to forgive our sins only Jesus does.
"they start right" 💯 they used to be highly anointed but as time goes by, they start planning things on their own (eventually they make their ministry like a trading or business center). Until their motives are beginning to contradict God's Will. Most of them AREN'T TEACHABLE so that's why they developed this sense of entitlement. This makes me so sad actually.
That's dumb. You can't operate a ministry without money... God through His word talked about giving money more than most other subjects. Asking for money is not wrong, but is important. What makes it wrong or right is the MOTIVE behind asking for money.
God says no because No is protection From yourself or others He cares more about you and your character then what you “can do with your understanding” God is about relationships with him! Not fame. He loves us so he knows what’s best for us. I think leaders get ambitious (which is pride and think they need to do something all the time) when God is God and he speaks to his people on his own. It’s our job to listen and obey God.
My family and I have been attending a new church for the past month and a half. Not once has the pastor truly preached to the congregation to repent. I havnt heard or felt him truly preaching. Sermons consist of him and or a few other people having a conversation. Whether it’s about multiple ideas on creation of earth. Or his opinion on the nephelim being rediculous. But most important not bringing the church to to think about their daily sin and preaching repentance.
Daily sin? Not sure what sermons are coming from the pulpit of your church but it sounds like you might be tending towards sin consciousness, which does not glorify what the Lord accomplished for us on the cross. We are now dead to sin and alive to God through Jesus Christ. So our focus should be off sin and on the abundant grace and gift of righteousness we have received in Christ. That's how we honour what he went through for us. He has dealt with the sin problem once for all. We are now dead to sin. And the more we reckon ourselves dead to sin, the more it becomes so in our experience. Remember ,to be carnally minded is death but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. Consciousness of sin is being carnally minded. Consciousness of our righteousness in Christ is being spiritually minded. And the fruit is life and peace.
zach; Your teacher says the Nephilim are ridiculous. Amos 2; 9 Yet destroyed I the Amorite before them, whose height was like the height of the cedars, and he was strong as the oaks; yet I destroyed his fruit from above, and his roots from beneath. Looks like your present pastor doesn't have a clue of scripture. Also the story of David and Goliath; Goliath was a Nephilim giant and he had 4 brothers who were all giants. Might be an idea to look for another church.
Have you ever been led by a false teacher?
Yes, it has been the most shocking thing ever now that my eyes are open. We desire now to be led by Godly leaders as the HolySpirit leads. We just want to walk in love now and stay away from works without love.
Do you Sir, recommend any Godly Counsel/pastors in California?
Yes, turned out to be a cult.. caused massive ruin in my family. The cult eventually shut down, then my mother married him. He thankfully died a year and half ago.. special place for deceivers like that. Nothing but destruction. Sad thing is, I think he started off really wanting to follow Jesus.

There is a difference between thoughts and intents of the heart (Heb. 4:12). We can have the correct intension but our thoughts betray us because it is contrary to the word of God (Gal. 5:17). Many preachers, prophets, teachers, laymen start off with the right intension but soon are led astray by their own lust of power, greed, fame, recognition and pride (which Satan exploits). They may never of had pure motives, difficult to say, their fruit will bear witness however it may take time to recognize the fruit as being good or bad.
One of my favorite books by John Bevere is "Thus Saith The Lord". It doesn't get as much accolades as his other books, probably because of the subject matter, but nonetheless a great book. I really appreciate John Bevere's ministry I have learned so much from him.
I really appreciate your authenticity and teaching of the word ,especially covering topics relevant to the times we live in. I have Lisa’s book on pre order also. Blessings from NZ
15:01 Thank you!!! I just gave that example about the devil tempting Jesus to throw himself from a high altitude and the response was that one shall not test the Lord our God. That has been the message that I received with respect to criticism of the scary movies that have been coming out with Christian themes. It's like yes we have faith and we have recovering of God if we're strong in our walk, however why jump into a burning building if you don't have to? Thank you for giving me confirmation that I'm hearing God, and that as a new Christian I'm going about it the right way. I am so glad to have found this podcast. I read your book for a leadership class in church which is the bait of Satan and I got to say it's one of the best books I've ever read!
@NessaCat444
John's book "The Awe of God" is amazing and sooo vital for us to walk in!
I couldn't wait to listen. Grew up in a holiness church. There are still some of us around. Loved your first book way back 30 years ago. Glad I found your channel.
33:30 - Self-appointment for Ministry happened in the OT, and in the NT. One common aspect that denotes the both is that individuals choose man's will over God's will. OT self-appointment was based on earthly heritage, and other attributes, whilst in Jesus time, it was a based around political groups in Jerusalem (pharisees & sanhedrin). Today, we can see self appointment occurring at our churches and by church organisations. Appointment for ministry should be spiritually guided by the Holy Spirit and not done hastily.
1 Timothy 5,22 (AMP)
Do not hurry to lay hands on anyone [ordaining and approving someone for ministry or an office in the church, or in reinstating expelled offenders], and thereby share in the sins of others; keep yourself free from sin.
I always learn so much from you, seriously. You are led by the spirit John. I appreciate you.
I so appreciate this particular series. The Lord has put this very subject matter on my heart for the past year and I'm super thankful you are teaching into this truth of what Jesus warned us about!
Thanks for sharing Brother in Christ 🙂 I love watching & listening to end times related things.
Been reading and studying Daniel, Revelation and related rapture and 2nd coming scriptures since getting saved 45 yrs ago at 15.
And it is amazing to see so many prophecy's being fulfilled right before our very eyes.....
This is the generation that has seen Israel become a nation that will see Jesus !!!
We will be Harpatzo-ed , Rapturo-ed, caught up, snatched, taken by force, very, very soon. I can feel it in my spirit-man, that we the BABY-BOOMerz will taken before the 7 year tribulation.
Maranatha , Come Jesus Come.
See yall in the clouds with our BRAND NEW BODIES.
The future with God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit is going to be so EPIC, off the charts fantastic.
And then theres the Marriage Supper Of The Lamb....
YES, YES, YES are yous getting excited yet,
because you should be, unless you dont have a pulse or have flat lined ! ! !
Just cant wait............
Have you read Matthew 24, Mark 13, and Luke 21? Or are the scriptures you've read from a man with his explanation? Ask the Holy Spirit to teach you, then please read Matthew 24:29-31, this is Jesus telling us what to expect and the sequence of events. After is what Jesus tells us. Mark 13:24-27, Luke 21:25-27.
Hi John, thank you for your willingness to approach this topic, I pray that the Lord will continue to use you and your family, but I also pray for His protection over you all. A few days ago the Holy Spirit led me to feel a glimpse of His heartbreak because of how many Christians live Christianity without God. Just like in the garden of Eden, God will have us always be put in front of a choice the tree of Life (relationship with Him) or the tree of Knowledge(worldly centered wisdom, self help). Sadly many Christians are being deceived and are regularly feeding themselves from the Tree of Self Help and call it God's will, in this way pursuing what they think is a good thing and serves God, instead of seeking God for guidance. Please prayerfully consider and ask God if this might be something that you can discuss at some point
Thank you for teaching the word correctly! ❤
I am so grateful for this podcast. To God be the Glory !
This is encouraging, I’ve recently had an angel of light come to me in a trance and tell me that I was going to die with a voice I thought was a messenger from God. This drove me to depression and fear but after sometime realized that this wasn’t from God, either way Romans 14:8 is my assurance that whichever this way goes I’m secure in Christ.
The fruit of that visit was the proof it was not from God, fear and depression are from Satan. Fruit from a visit from our Father will produce peace, joy, love, relief...
Thank you so much Sir for your obedience to God and doing this podcast - it is blessing me and many others greatly! Currently watching from Nigeria.
Mr Bevere,
Enjoying your podcast. Surprised and pleased to see a Pentecostal teach thru scripture in an expositional way. Well done. It addresses hard passages like today.
You said people don't go "I can't wait to listen to that". But that's not particularly true. I really needed to listen to this, so thank you for being obedient and for talking about what we really need to hear.
Guys -- this was my favorite episode so far. Thank you for all of this.
I choose to have my faith anchored in the finished work of calvary...my family is finally basking in God's provisions ($57k bimonthly). God has shone his countenance upon us
Hallelujah!!!
I place myself in the right position to be blessed of you Lord Jesus
Kindly let me know more bout this bimonthly thing you just mentioned. Please...
It's Kathleen Mary Vella. She's changed my life. A broker, she's just the exact expert you need
I raised 57k and Kathleen Mary Vella is to be thanked. I got myself my dream car just last weekend. My journey with her started after my best friend came back from New York and saw my helpless state
So cool doing the podcast with your son, that speaks volumes from the outset ✌️
Interesting teaching. Thank you Father & Son Bevere
In regard to waiting on God, I have a powerful testimony. In the early 2000s I was out preaching the gospel on the street. I knew that I was supposed to be waiting on God, but I thought maybe I was supposed to "act" a bit first. One day, I'm heading out to preach and I hear "You know you can do nothing without me, right?". Wakeup call!
Powerful testimony indeed. 🙂
Ishmael 😢
I used to hate it when God spoke to me like that because I wanted him to be my simp daddy but I am so grateful now. The most recent incident is a few weeks ago I met this guy that moved into one of the rooms he's literally my next door neighbour at this flat. I was crushing HARD and his personality was just drawing me in and I was like he is everything I dream of 🙂↕️ Lies 🙄🤦🏾♂️ Then one day I heard him having the same chatty loud convos with another girl and I was HURT 😂 I cried for days 😂 And I was mad at God 😅 Don't ask me why 🤦🏾♂️
By the way before I came here I was hearing I will find my husband here so I thought it gotta be him, and so in my mind he was already stepping out from our marriage 😂😂😂
Anyway after a few days of just being a whole mess and I was starting to get my life together I had a dream I was in a bus, I demanded the driver to stop so I could get off and he told me no but your stop is ahead we're not there yet, next thing I was walking in this dusty road with HUGE pot holes filled with muddy water so much you can't see the depth of it but in my dream head I knew if I stepped in I'd drown cause they so deep, I was holding on to a rope as I try to navigate the potholes and I woke up. I just knew what God was saying and I was like when will I ever learn to just trust God right off the bat 🤦🏾♂️
After that dream I start seeing things after things about him, how much of a drunk he is, he was actually having a fling with this girl (she has a bf we see him all the time), then I saw him walking out his "real" gf and him and this girl that lives here don't talk anymore or sneak into each other's rooms anymore etc
All I'm saying is I don't know how I ever lived without these convictions and warning from God. (I didn't live, God had to tell me Talitha koum when he came to save me because that's how dead I was. Cool salvation story for another day)
They are EVERYTHING!!! God bless ❤

I pray God would keep ours hearts and the Spirit lead us in the truth. Let us not be led astray. Thank you Jesus
B.H.Clendennen!!! I love that man of God! SOC... I have his big SOC book. Thank God he lived! Thank you guys. Love your teaching
I love the humility sir. Only if the Lord's in it, amen!
Increase my discernment, Lord!
Since my supernatural encounter's with God, I have been treated like Joseph, but I'll continue to serve the Lord and walk by faith. Shield up!
I don't want any money for teaching Christ, it should be free to spread the gospel!
Whoa. I got goosebumps for Lisa's new book promo at the end. Looks awesome
This is good and much-needed.
This is very heavy😢praying for the body of Christ
Thx Arden + John. Very good listen. See u next week!
John, thank you SO MUCH! for this teaching!!! These rightly divided truths and pure motives behind them is so very DESPERATELY NEEDED these days!!! I prayed with you repenting and asking for His truths, His way and ALL for His gain.! All I desire is to be pleasing to God!!! May He richly bless you in all things to fill His kingdom with all that is rightly His in Jesus's Name!!! 🙏
Numbers don’t mean success! This is so powerful. God may my success be in the lives impacted out of my obedience to you. Lord may my focus be on you and walking as you direct. Lord search my heart and remove all selfish motives and replace and fill with the Holy Spirit. Holy Spirit- guide me. Lord give me eyes to see and ears to hear. Lord set me apart. Lord I only want you have for me. Lord if you are not in it remove me because my life is dependent on you. God send me.
I’m going through ‘Fear Of the Lord’ again.
The Bible is supernatural. A relationship with Jesus is supernatural. I started a three day fast this morning. Thank you for this message. I'm 47 years old, make $27,000 a month and am retired. This video really inspired me in many ways!!!
Hallelujah! God is the Greatest ,how are you making 27k a monthly can you share please ? 🙏
It is the digital market. That's been the secret to this wealth transfer. Thank you Jesus
Thanks to my co-worker (Alex) who suggested Ms Sallie Herzog Behnke. She's a licensed broker in the states 🇺🇸
I remember giving her my first savings $7,000 and she opened a brokerage account for me it turned out to be the best thing that ever happened to me.
Wow...I know her too she is a licensed broker and a FINRA agent she is popular in
US and Canada she is really amazing woman with good skills and experience.
Thanks for all the work you do to get this podcast running. It’s always very biblical and challenging!
I'm a Seer with over 27 years of experience in the prophetic. The subject of false prophets can be complex and difficult to discern but here's my take. Years back I asked God about false prophets and he gave me a dream that night. In the dream I walked in a book store and saw many books on shelves with the covers exposed. On the covers of these books were faces of people many I could recognize. All these books were about self help and so on. Then I heard a loud voice shout saying IT'S THE ANOINTING THAT BREAKS THE YOKE!. I awoke from the dream with understanding. God was saying many will claim to have the anointing that will break your yoke, whatever that my be like health wellness prosperity money ect. False Prophets are literally snake oil salesman. False Prophets are in the church just as much as in the world. Some deceive knowingly while others deceive unknowingly. The false prophets who deceive unknowingly are worse for they believe what they do is good and come across sincere and confident. But no matter how much you expose these false prophets and having evidence to back up your claim people will still follow those false prophets. I can tell which prophets in the church are false and some you might believe but others you would be offended at the notion.
Yes, an anointing or being sealed by GOD does break any veil of deception. The Holy Spirit leads.
the anointing is on the Word of God. If it’s not Gods Word it’s not the anointing. So many teachings of men that confuse and mislead people. Read the Word and you will know the truth!
Thank you! I really appreciate this, guys. It is healing to my soul.
Greetings from Ecuador 🇪🇨, this is such a study. Thanks God❤
The one major gift the Church in general is lacking big time is DISCERNMENT. That is why these Mega Entertainment Facilities Churches are flourishing and people are marching into hell.😥😥😥
This is such an eye opener. Great teaching indeed. Just love every bit of it. Solid faith building, life transforming teaching. To God be the glory 🎉❤🙏 Thank you John and Arden Bevere ❤
Hallelujah!!!! The daily Jesus devotional has been a huge part of my transformation, God is good, after years of addiction to drugs and sins God chased me down as I earn $112,500 monthly. My life and family has changed, Thank you Jesus!!!!
God bless you more abundantly for your generosity
But then, what do you do? How do you come about that in that period?
I'm a born Christian and sometimes I feel so down of myself but I still believe in God.
It is the digital market. That's been the secret to this wealth transfer. Thank you Jesus
Thanks to Mrs Kathleen Mary Vella
“Numbers aren’t a sign of success”
I so appreciate these pod casts. This one in particular is such an important topic. I had the privilege of reading your book "Thus Saith The Lord" about 20 years ago. It really impacted me as a young man, because the Lord was revealing the same to me. He was showing me how so many in the charismatic realm are not just false prophets, they are literally receiving the devil himself as an angel of light. The majority of the charismatic/prophetic movement is not of God. It's so saddening. But this podcast is truth, prophets are there for our "upbuilding" (1 Cor 14:3), and so many stop there in understanding the purpose of a prophet. But in the very same chapter Paul continues to expound that they are there to "convict" (1 Cor 14:24-25). If people would just know the entire word of God, they'd not be deceived. If God is unchanging, then His prophets will be the same today as they were in the OT. And the #1 thing they were commissioned to do is to rebuke and chasten for sin.
We also have false prophets who chastise those who should not be, who struggling, and yet make out the rest of the sinful body as being so holy and right with God.
Many times though, we'll also see false doctrine on the other side, believing that our holiness saves us. Holiness is a fruit, not a seed. Faith is the seed, which, over time will produce more and more fruit. To judge/condemn those who are struggling with addictions or whatever is sooooo terrible it's mind blowing as well. Jesus came to heal those who are sick.
To Mr.Bevere: Respect. I've never really liked it either. I've always thought many churches are merely businesses and that working for God should be out of love. On the other hand, you need to survive also. Good for you.
God bless 🧡🙏🏽
Thank u for the prayer so much
Love the great, sound hermeneutics. Such great teaching with biblical theology and integrity 🤍🕊️
Has anyone seen EJ Newton teaching about false prophets? This is needed today
I'm going through this and learning presently about this 🙏♥️
"A false witness will perish, But. the man who listens to the truth will speak forever." Prov.21:28 ❤
Thank you, great word
I would love for you two to speak about prophets and prophesying in today times. Like are there people whose "job" is prophet? Or if not, what is their role nowadays? It would help me a lot to know more about it!
(I'm loving the Podcasts by the way!)
As a child a long time ago I prayed to God to become like Moses or someone in the Bible. Someone that brings a great vast multitude to Christ. I knew it was a dangerous prayer. That if answered terrible things might happen to me. I did not demand it of God to answer it. I did not really want God to answer it. I simply said I will go, if you call me. But, please help me remember my prayer, because of the depth of my doubt. Because if something like that comes to pass I will not be able to believe it unless I remember my prayer. 40 years of forgetfulness.
Wow thank you! I've been reading the book of Jeremiah all week and now I see this video. ❤
The book of Jeremiah is probably my favorite book in the Bible along with of course Psalms
Brother Hagin was an awesome man of God
No
Easy to spot: 1. They want money & 2. They want to be important (pride)
Bravo man i absolutely loved this one love you brother keep teaching people
Thank you sooooo much. I needed it.
May God have mercy and I thank Him for the various gifts in the body of Christ. I am a lay person when it involves the gospel but I am also God's child and therefore God speaks to me. I study, pray and read my bible with all fervency and God's anointing. I pray that He keeps me from idols and deception. I also pray that He provides what I need to serve Him acceptably. I pray that He keeps me from the love of money by giving me what I am capable of stewarding. It is good to receive blessings as long as they do not come between us and God. The love of money is the root of all evil. God is good, kind and merciful. He did not come to condemn the world but to save it. It seems sufficient to collect an offering as instructed in the bible. I use the word collection instead of resorting to a "prosperity teaching." I just think prosperity appeals to the flesh and to people who want to use the gospel for financial gain. Ultimately God is our final judge and He will tell us where to go.
Very good, so needed!!
I was in a church with a narcissistic pastor and the only thing she preached was about sin. 90% of the time she "prophesied" about sin, and she was a false teacher, preacher, prophet and everything else. We never heard her talk about the grace or love of God. and our lives were destroyed because of the fear, manipulation, intimidation and all the rest. Now she is in Hope Chapel, Ontario, California. She leads a Spanish church.
Manipulation is witchcraft, however preaching sin is a good thing. Jesus first words in his ministry were "Repent, the Kingdom of Heaven is here!"
Thank you for the teaching
32:10 - Biblically, success is doing and completing God's will for one's life.
Ephesians 2:10 - For we are God's handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.
The sweep of Calvinism is a bane on today’s churches.
We have to test all teaching against scripture.
God loves all.
He died for all.
He is not willing that any should perish.
Very very true
I love you guys so much thank you for being obedient
Sad so many people don't read the Bible. Actually study the word while praying and asking God questions and letting him lead you to the answers through the word and honorable men and women of God. People need to stop only getting your learning from a pastor, your Christian friend or social media clips. Stop just taking their word for it. When I hear truth it is confirmed in my heart only because I have word and the Holy Spirit in me. But when you're clueless you're swayed like a leaf in the wind. Pray for understanding before you read the word and ask God questions. Every message you hear go back and read the scriptures. You'll get more out of the word because there are things you are pondering in your heart.
I was one of those believers. So I'm in no way being insulting. It has changed my life and I'm no longer afraid of false teachings. But I'm careful.
Yes, be a self-feeder and ask the Holy Spirit to teach you. And listen. Amen, 🗡🛡
This was good
God-bless you my brothers
Solid gold right here!!!!
God bless you and all you do.
so true, satan also imitate God's messenger. We really need to be aware and strong in the WORD.
Great teaching.. hallelujah
John, Mr. Engineer, I bet you’ll appreciate this. The magnitude of our sin increases proportionally to the square of the distance from the Father. Similarly, the magnitude of our holiness is inversely proportional to the square of our distance to the Father.
Amazing one, speaking to my situation
Don’t be surprised when you send your kids to Caesar, that they come back Romans….
I for one don’t want this government raising my children. Our 6 children go to a homeschool hybrid, we homeschool them 2-3 days, then they go to a private Christian academy 2-3 days. It’s a way WAY better system than what I grew up with in public school. And it lines up with the two days my wife works as an RN. The days we homeschool, the kids do their work quick and then work with me the rest of the day farming, training tracking hounds for clients, and fixing up our rental units. The school has small business fairs teaching kids the skills to make their own businesses. Almost daily our kids are dreaming up new ideas and they’re excited about them, at a young age!!! Instead of our kids playing video games all day and gaining a false sense of accomplishment, they can get the same or better dopamine dump when achieving real accomplishments! Praise God this is an option for my house
Another thing is that he misleads people into believing that if they step into the confessional & confess their sins that they will be forgiven.He doesn't have the authority to forgive our sins only Jesus does.
Obey son and daughter for his purpose
Jesus IS THE TRUTH....IF YOU KNOW THE TRUTH THE TRUTH WILL MAKEYOU FREE❤
"they start right" 💯 they used to be highly anointed but as time goes by, they start planning things on their own (eventually they make their ministry like a trading or business center). Until their motives are beginning to contradict God's Will. Most of them AREN'T TEACHABLE so that's why they developed this sense of entitlement. This makes me so sad actually.
one of the first things i look for to work out if someone is a potential false teacher, is whether or not they're asking people for money
or trying to sell things
That's dumb. You can't operate a ministry without money... God through His word talked about giving money more than most other subjects. Asking for money is not wrong, but is important. What makes it wrong or right is the MOTIVE behind asking for money.
@@jameshildebrand176 you can operate a ministry without money though. and i did say potential
Kenneth E Hagin
God says no because
No is protection
From yourself or others
He cares more about you and your character then what you “can do with your understanding”
God is about relationships with him! Not fame. He loves us so he knows what’s best for us. I think leaders get ambitious (which is pride and think they need to do something all the time) when God is God and he speaks to his people on his own. It’s our job to listen and obey God.
Thank you ❤
My family and I have been attending a new church for the past month and a half.
Not once has the pastor truly preached to the congregation to repent. I havnt heard or felt him truly preaching. Sermons consist of him and or a few other people having a conversation. Whether it’s about multiple ideas on creation of earth. Or his opinion on the nephelim being rediculous. But most important not bringing the church to to think about their daily sin and preaching repentance.
Daily sin? Not sure what sermons are coming from the pulpit of your church but it sounds like you might be tending towards sin consciousness, which does not glorify what the Lord accomplished for us on the cross. We are now dead to sin and alive to God through Jesus Christ. So our focus should be off sin and on the abundant grace and gift of righteousness we have received in Christ. That's how we honour what he went through for us. He has dealt with the sin problem once for all. We are now dead to sin. And the more we reckon ourselves dead to sin, the more it becomes so in our experience. Remember ,to be carnally minded is death but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. Consciousness of sin is being carnally minded. Consciousness of our righteousness in Christ is being spiritually minded. And the fruit is life and peace.
zach; Your teacher says the Nephilim are ridiculous. Amos 2; 9 Yet destroyed I the Amorite before them, whose height was like the height of the cedars, and he was strong as the oaks; yet I destroyed his fruit from above, and his roots from beneath. Looks like your present pastor doesn't have a clue of scripture. Also the story of David and Goliath; Goliath was a Nephilim giant and he had 4 brothers who were all giants. Might be an idea to look for another church.
Needs to be intimate intimacy with the father’s heart❤ from the love of his word that he gives first John 4 He first Loved us
1 John 3 if u sin your of the devil.
