God called the Levitical priests to guard the Temple and the people. But the battle is not against flesh & blood. As priests, God is calling us to guard the Temple of the Holy Spirit entrusted to us as we walk in the gifts of the Holy Spirit responsibly. In this teaching, we will look at 8 misuses of spiritual gifts, 3 strategies Satan uses to attack the Temple of God, and how to guard His Temple. Torah Portion: Bamidbar / In the wilderness — בְּמִדְבַּר This podcast is powered by Pinecast.

What the world needs are disciples who proclaim the gospel in the way Yeshua did: With a personal touch of reconciling the hearer with the Father. But the only way this was possible, was through the divine revelation and empowerment of the Holy Spirit. Peter was known as sent by God through the signs that accompanied His preaching. What if we can also see what Yeshua saw, if we do what He did? This podcast is powered by Pinecast.

Marriage is about more than a man & a woman - it presents a covenant to communicate the gospel and give the world insight into God’s relationship with His people. But that means our responsibility towards this covenant is both more beautiful and serious at the same time. Join PD as we explore the mystery of marriage. This podcast is powered by Pinecast.

God is turning the hearts of the children back to the parents! But it is important for the parents to step into their role of blessing the children - breaking down barriers from hurts of the past - to reinforce love and the child's God-given identity. This podcast is powered by Pinecast.

Just as Paul wrote to the church of Corinth & Galatia, so we write to you. There are certain sins the church has not taken as seriously as needed for too long. This podcast is powered by Pinecast.

As believers, we have a greater responsibility than ever before to be beacons of truth in a world of misinformation, confusion and falsehood. But our enemy is setting traps for Christians everywhere in hope that they discredit themselves by breaking the commandments of truth given by our Heavenly Father. Consider this warning and be an honorable example of Christ! This podcast is powered by Pinecast.

In the scriptures, Paul instructs certain people to be "delivered to Satan", but what does this mean? An in-context reading of the chapter provides an important lesson as to what we should do when someone turns away from God. While it may seem like God's judgment at first, a more responsible & deeper look, reveals His love and grace. This podcast is powered by Pinecast.

There’s a reason Psalm 119 is the longest chapter in the Bible: the Most High wanted our attention! “If you love Me, keep My commandments” is what He asked, and Psalm 119 is all about the beauty of His instructions that bring freedom unto us. Like a drink of water to quench the most extreme of thirsts, so these words are unto our soul. This podcast is powered by Pinecast.

There is a move among God’s people to restore Spirit & Truth worship, and this desire is perhaps evident in the upcoming American Gospel movie. But we must approach this conversation with a willingness to listen, setting aside hurts of the past that may color our vision, and be willing to step into a greater of measure of faith to walk like Yeshua. Is the American Gospel trailer unbiased? PD watches it and shares his first impressions. This podcast is powered by Pinecast.

When facing the unfortunate reality of unclean spirits masquarading as the Holy Spirit, it can be easy to let our bad experiences be what trains our discernment. And even though this seems like an obvious error to avoid, its rampant among believers, and exactly the intention of our enemy. True discernment must be trained by the Scriptures.

When someone leaves the faith and stops following Jesus, we need to take notice. What went wrong? It’s one thing if someone departs because of the truth, but it's another when someone departs because of something believers have done wrong.

For those who lived before Jesus, how could they be saved before their Savior arrived? Did God make provision for them, and if so, how?

Passover is about recognizing what Yeshua did for us, but also what He calls us to do after His resurrection. The staff, the belt, the shoes and many other elements all teach us a powerful calling as we await His return!

In our excitement of returning to the Biblical feasts as described in the Torah, could it be that we’ve missed the importance of an essential part of celebrating Passover, as described in the New Testament? This would not be the first time! Paul warned the Church of Corinth about partaking in Yeshua’s body & blood unworthily. Could we be making the same mistake today?

Torah Portion: Tzav | Command | צַו Some Christians have used the sacrifice of Jesus as a 'get out of jail free' card. If we've wronged someone, all we need to do is ask for God's forgiveness, right? The Bible commands more: That restitution is paid to the one you hurt, wronged, defrauded or damaged. Whether emotionally, spiritually or physically, all of us will both experience or cause hurt. The question is, will we follow God's mandate of resolution, or trample underfoot the sacrifice of Christ instead?

When we walk in passion for the Truth and works of the Holy Spirit, love must remain at the forefront of everything we do. In this interview, Jeff & Miranda asks PD about his life growing up, past struggles and the call of God for this generation.

Faith seems simple, but it's not always easy. Sometimes God doesn't seem to answer, sometimes we find ourselves in confusing trials, but He remains above all things and in all things. Join Christina as she shares 3 important things she learned about her prayers to God.

"Spirit & Truth" is God's call for this generation, and more and more are starting to use this term. But as we return to walk as Yeshua, we must be careful to not repeat the mistakes of the past: Spirit & Truth isn't about a show, entertainment, or building man's kingdom. It's about holiness, orderly worship and humility. Whenever God is moving, the enemy seeks to introduce a counterfeit. It is therefore our call to ensure Biblical Order is reintroduced, yet not at the cost of freedom.

God is restoring His children's bread back to them: Deliverance. He is teaching us how to deal with demons in the ways that Yeshua dealt with them. But it means some of us will need to be bold, uncompromising, and not fearful of man's opinions when doing so. There are many "policies" that we have created to deal with people's bondage, but some of these have been made as a compromise to the method of Yeshua. Deliverance is controversial! But sometimes the problem is a demon, and nothing else but casting them out will provide freedom. Let us not place man-made solutions/"burdens on the shoulders of men" that will not actually help them, because we are unwilling to recognize that their issue really is demonic, and needs Yeshua's method to get rid of them.

God is raising a new generation of young people for Him, to worship Him like never before: In Spirit & Truth! In this episode, youth share their testimonies of how God radically delivered them from demons, fears, suicidal thoughts, depression, addiction and more! PD also delivers an important message for the next generation. Be sure to stay until the end, for an incredible moment of parents blessing and praying over their children to be sent out with the gospel!

Torah Portion: Ki Tisa / When you take / כִּי תִשָּׂא The Levitical temple and all of its different elements, such as the anointing oil, temple tax, bronze basin, and incense, were given for a purpose overlooked all too often: To provide us with a deeper revelation of the gospel, our role as priests ministering in the intimacy of the Father, and our role as temple of the Holy Spirit.

The Rise Up highlight video is here! Are you hungry for a move of God? He is calling a generation to rise up and obey the call of Yeshua to make disciples of all nations. He has given us authority to heal the sick and cast out demons, He has risen and saved us, for us to rise and bring His salvation to others.

There's been a lot of talk about revival. But what does the fruits of revival look like? Revival is not just a singular event, true revival will transform us. In this special release, we share multitudes of testimonies from attendees at the recent RISE UP event who went onto the streets to proclaim the gospel, feed the hungry, and change cities with Yeshua's love!

All believers ought to read the Bible, but gaining knowledge isn't enough. How you read the Bible will greatly influence your relationship with God, others, and even your eternity. Some read the Scriptures in order to find ammunition against the lawless. Others read the Scriptures and find that lawlessness within themselves. The posture of our heart in our reading is everything and will determine whether we allow the Holy Spirit to heal our hearts of stone.

I'm excited to announce that I will be doing a special LIVE show this SATURDAY at 8pm EST with Dr. Craig Keener, Biblical Scholar and Asbury Seminary Professor. What I love about Dr. Keener is his humble heart and passion for the Father, His love for the Sabbath and the gifts of the Holy Spirit. We've all seen what has happened in Asbury, but what does this mean for the world? What role does the Holy Spirit desire to have in our current times? And what is our responsibility?

The Asbury event has stirred much controversy, even causing a divide within the Body of Christ regarding its authenticity. While discussion can be healthy, could we be in the process of witnessing God exposing an underlying religious spirit operating among us? If He is cleansing His threshing floor, we need to make sure we are found working for the right Kingdom.

There's been a lot of talk on social media about the ongoing Asbury Revival. Join me as we speak with someone on the ground about what is really happening in Kentucky, and consider according to the Scriptures.

Being filled with the Spirit is pursued by many, but what can men do to deserve Holy Spirit filling their temple? Perhaps even that is the wrong question to ask entirely. Join PD as he explores two common misconceptions of how to be filled with the Holy Spirit!

Episode Notes There have been many movements throughout history where God poured out His Spirit over His people. But I believe God is doing something different from anything in thousands of years. He is restoring Spirit AND Truth worship to His people. That means not repeating the errors of generations before. We will have balance, we will have order, we will have holiness, we will have integrity, all while not quenching His Holy Spirit!

From all over the world, Christians are being convicted to take a closer look at Casting out Demons. This practice has been discounted by some in the modern church, even completely replaced by alternative solutions to the bondages faced by multitudes today. But if Jesus’ ministry had a large focus on casting out demons, how can Christians - those who claim to follow Jesus - ignore it? Join me in rediscovering this precious authority Yeshua has left for us.

The promises of God are what we cling to when we are facing trial, in need of hope, and to be reminded of who our God is. Join Christina in this reading of our collection of the top 50 promises of God, with prayer and ambient music. Read along, pray along, and fill your home with God's promises.

Will the church be kept safe from trials of the end? Can those who lived before the time of Jesus be saved? Does the Sabbath start sunrise or sundown? What does God teach regarding disciplining children? Why doesn't everyone get healed?

One Biblical passage seems especially confusing: The punishment of stoning for a rebellious child. But upon investigation, it reveals a deeper lesson (and Good News!) when taking into consideration God's perspective, the purpose, and the historical application of this law.

I would like to you invite you to our event, Rise Up coming up in Missouri, as well as our upcoming live Q&A's! Text Yeshua to 94000 to get notified when we live stream!

Casting out demons is a practice largely forsaken by the modern western church - but why is this? Is it supposed to play a role in the lives of believers, or stowed away in ancient history? What are the symptoms of demonic oppression? How is deliverance to be approached? What causes demonic oppression? And are demons as scary as Hollywood would like us to believe? Join PD in this live show joined by John Diffenderfer as they discuss their experiences with Casting out Demons

If we are advocates of praying for the sick and believing God for healing, where does that leave medicines, doctors or other physical treatments? And does the use of 'Pharmakeia' in Greek mean that medicine is sorcery according to the Bible? These are common questions, and we hope this discussion and analysis of scripture blesses you!

When Moses was born, Pharaoh sought to kill the baby. When Jesus was born, Herod sought to kill the baby. When God births leaders, the enemy will do everything he can to stop them from rising up, even going as far as genocide. But what if we are living in a time of one such genocide? A "spiritual genocide." In the end of days, this great falling away will take place. But when it happens, what will you do about it? And most importantly, what will God do? Torah Portion: Shemot / Names / שְׁמוֹת

God is calling His people to a time of fasting like Jesus fasted, to develop a deeper hunger for God's presence than ever before. But there's a problem: God's people have lost sight of the purposes of fasting, how to fast, or even why they would care to. Yeshua taught this spiritual discipline not as optional but expected of His disciples. And He is restoring it back to us for a time like this!

After Jesus warned His disciples against adultery of the heart, He said it would be better to cut off a hand that causes them to stumble, than to enter hell with it. In the epidemic of lust and pornography among believers, God is urgently calling many of us to 'cut off a hand'. Many are at risk of entering hell, while they think they're headed for heaven. But because of my love for you, I must give you this sobering warning of Yeshua.

For many years, those in the New-Age and witchcraft communities have pointed to Joseph's Cup of Divination as evidence of a biblical "Christian witchcraft." While ruling in Egypt, Joseph accused his brothers of stealing his Cup of Divination, and boasted to his brothers that he can indeed practice divination (Gen 44:15). Why did Joseph say this? Did Joseph practice divination? Let's unpack this much needed discussion!

The parallels between Joseph and Jesus are well-known, but often unconsidered are the profound connections of Joseph's life to Yeshua's end-times return, and judgment of the world. Join PD for a deeper look at this week's Torah Portion teaching! Torah Portion: Vayigash / He approached / וַיִּגַּשׁ

The world believes it can walk out a moral life without the need for God or a higher power, but is this at all possible? And can we determine a moral standard without God? I hope these apologetics helps you have fruitful conversations with unbelievers!

At the burning bush, Moses told God he would never be able to convince Israel to leave Egypt. Moses wrongly questioned God's power. But in another way, Moses was right to doubt reliance on his own abilities. Are we sometimes reliant on our own abilities? It will drive us to the same frustrations and uncertainties that Moses faced. But God has good news for us!

Christmas is here - the central feast of Christian celebration, celebrating the birth of Jesus. And Jesus is worthy of our celebration all days of the year. But what are the feasts that God called His people to according to the Bible? And have we celebrated our own inventive traditions at the cost of the Biblical feasts given by our Father in the Bible? This is not a video about the pagan backgrounds of Christmas. But rather a deeper consideration of whether our priorities of feast-keeping align with the Father's, whether we celebrate Christmas or not. And ultimately, how we ought to act in the midst of the disagreements that plague households in this season

Torah Portion: Vayeshev / He settled / וַיֵּשֶׁב Joseph boasted against his brothers, who proceeded to tear his robe and cover it in blood. Like Joseph, our robes are covered in blood. Our sin has rightfully accused us. Our imprisonment awaits. But Yeshua saw our distress, and his robe was covered in blood for us. Everything done against Him was turned around for good. And our bloody robes went from scarlet to white as snow.

The Lord's Prayer has become "old-news" to so many of us. But what if this is the most important, yet most underrated prayer in all of Scripture? And what if this prayer of Yeshua contains a special anointing? Join PD & Christina as they explore the deeper message within the Lord's Prayer.

Throughout life, we will face seasons of prosperity, where it feels like everything is going well, and can go well forever. But then, we face seasons of great need, distress, trial, fear and desperation. To navigate these seasons, Paul relays for us the secret to facing both abundance and need.

Every country has to face the shocking acts done by certain individuals. But is there a pattern? And is there anything that we can do to help? I would like to submit to you that it is us, not regulation, that plays the largest role. By walking like Jesus, and extending His hand of love and truth, we can save lives through His work and Holy Spirit. This video message covers sensitive topics not suitable for younger viewers

Jacob's ladder is a dream of angels ascending and descending upon a heavenly ladder into heaven. But what does this mean? And how do we get access? Yeshua revealed the spiritual mystery behind this dream, and how He is going to fulfill it within each of us on a personal level. Jacob's ladder is here - now. But will you climb it? Torah Portion: Vayetze | He went out | וַיֵּצֵא

Many of us have experienced moments or seasons when we struggle to hear God's voice, has He left us? Are there times that God goes silent for a reason? This happens to all of us at some point. Join PD as he explores this frequently asked question and how you can grow deeper in your relationship with God!
