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!

Did you know that before the foundation of the Earth was laid, God gifted you a birthright? Discovering and living in that birthright fulfills your life calling and makes you a builder of God's Kingdom. But the enemy is desperately trying to convince you to surrender your inheritance for the things of the world. God will accomplish all His plans, but the question is, will you choose this day to play a part in it, or watch Him use others instead? Torah Portion: Toldot | Family history | תּוֹלְדוֹת

Every culture for the last two thousand years has attempted to tell the story of Jesus in a way that is familiar to their own ethnic groups, creating depictions of Jesus that would be relatable and accessible. But while on the surface this seems quite innocent, can there be a hidden danger and slippery slope to creating a Jesus fashioned in our image, cultures, traditions, worldviews, and likeness? Who is the Jesus of Scripture, and how are we to represent Him to the world?

God commands His people to "not muzzle an ox while it's treading out the grain." But is it with animals that God is concerned? Surely, but He says this even for our sake. Let's learn what this commandment really teaches in how we ought to treat our neighbor's labors.

We need a DEEPER understanding of God's COMPASSION! I'm excited to share with you live tonight about one of the most incredible encounters I've ever had. While talking with a few unbelieving teenagers about God in a mall, they questioned His existence. But what God does next would leave them speechless! I'll then explain WHY I believe it happened as miraculously as it did, and HOW you can start seeing God touch people through you by the Holy Spirit.

Every great kingdom, every king and queen, and every modern superpower - will all one day fall. What has been, will be again. Yet many of us place our trust in these powers of the world. But there is One Kingdom that has risen that will never fall, but the question is: What Kingdom do you serve? And in which King do you place your trust?

In a culture where we “test out” many people in the hope of finding “The One”, what if the Bible provides a way that is so much easier, avoids heartbreak, and glorifies the power of God? What if true freedom in seeking a spouse is when we entrust that choice to God? The One who can best write the stories of our lives is the One who created us - God is still speaking, but will we listen?

Hundreds of years ago, Martin Luther nailed a thesis to the door of a church that marked the beginning of a worldwide church reformation. But what if God has been ushering in a new truth reformation? For all His people to be freed from traditions of men, in order to worship Him in Truth and holiness? A return to the pure walk of Christ! Join PD and Christina in this exciting conversation with the couple behind The Way Documentary - Luke & Kayte Abaffy

Being a Christian in our modern culture has been boiled down to coming to filling a pew on Sunday and then going home - with very little expectation to participate in the new Life Christ has for us. But the faith of the early church looked radically different, because instead of creating people who are simply dependent and uninvolved, they created disciples who were trained to go out, spread the Gospel, and be empowered by spiritual gifts to bring destruction upon the enemy's kingdom. This is what God is calling us back to: A body of believers who desire to walk like Yeshua walked in humility, power, and love, and who go out and bring God's Kingdom to earth as it is in heaven by impacting one person at a time - to make disciples, not dependents.

Episode Notes Sukkot Revival: That's what this Feast of Tabernacles felt like. I had the honor of ministering at 3 feast events two weeks ago, and I have not witnessed such hunger for His Holy Spirit in this movement before. I would like to share some of the testimonies, the state of the Body of Believers, and I have a message to share for spiritual leaders. I'm still blown away by everything that happened, glory to God! The Holy Spirit requires a hunger in His people - and HE SATISFIES!🔥 Christina and I were honored to meet with and minister to many who chose to surrender their lives to Yeshua and get baptized, and many who were met with incredible physical healing and deliverance from issues of the heart. It was incredible to see God's people come forward in UNITY to receive prayer and pray over their brothers and sisters in love and power, operating in their Spiritual gifts. Some of whom had never experienced the presence of the Holy Spirit before. People of God, it's time to RISE UP! May we become the Tabernacles of the Holy Spirit and God's Presence we were always called to be in Yeshua.

Halloween is almost here, and many believers have no problem celebrating a day that glorifies darkness. Many have called what is evil, good. But we would be deceived to think that's where it all stops. The enemy's next trap is to confuse believers into calling what is good, evil. And many believers end up coming against the Kingdom of God itself without even realizing it.

Episode Notes Many of us have heard that the reason for God forbidding His people to mix wool & linen in their clothing is because this fabric mix is reserved for the priesthood. But where does this idea truly come from? What if a corruption of man influenced not only priestly attire, but the make-up of tzitzits itself well into the first-century.

Episode Notes It's the Feast of Tabernacles in Jerusalem, Yeshua stands up by the tabernacle and cries out with a loud voice, "Whoever is thirsty, come to Me and drink!" Declaring that a New Temple had arrived in Jerusalem. At a well, He tells a Samaritan Woman: "Drink of me, and you'll never go thirsty again", and that He is bringing about a revolution of His Father's Tabernacle itself, changing the way God is about to dwell with His people forevermore, enabling them to worship in Spirit & Truth - but will you believe this promise? Do you understand where the True Tabernacle is? Grasping it will change the way you see life forever. 🔥 Make a donation to sustain this ministry: https://www.riseonfire.com/partner/

Episode Notes The Bible commands to not plow oxen & donkeys together (Deut 22:10), but what do these have to do with us? Could this strange law actually be God giving the most important romantic relationship advice ever?

Episode Notes In 2020, the Lord impressed a word in my heart for His people - but the message was reserved for today. Now I am sharing what the Lord told me in 2020 about the mystery of His provision. Many of us are still living as slaves in Egypt, trusting the Pharoahs of this world to provide our needs. But will we trust in YHVH, who calls us to prepare spiritually above all. In whom will we trust?

Episode Notes On the Day of Atonement, we often state: "May you be inscribed in the Book of Life." But the scriptures also speak of other books that will be opened: Books that contain a record of everything we've ever done or said. Today, we have to be reminded of the reality that those books will one day be opened and used to judge us by, and as we speak, our works are being inscribed. God calls us to be reminded of the Kingdom to come and to live for it! 🔥 Make a donation to sustain this ministry: https://www.riseonfire.com/partner/

Episode Notes What is Yom Kippur, and why is it important for believers? God calls us to do introspection on this day, and consider our own hearts for the lost, to not make the same mistake Jonah did. 🔥 Make a donation to sustain this ministry: https://www.riseonfire.com/partner/

Episode Notes As Christina grew up as a young teenager, she grew up in an organization that prioritized modesty and purity for women. While these are both important and Biblical concepts, the mindset of this organization took it to the extreme and impacted her perception of biblical modesty and womanhood. Throughout much of Christianity, could it be that we are causing the very things we hope to avoid? Changing the perception of women into sexual objects to satisfy an unbiblical patriarchy, where men are freed from all responsibility. But what does Scripture say about this? 🔥 Make a donation to sustain this ministry: https://www.riseonfire.com/partner/

Episode Notes Is Spiritual Fast Food killing us? We can all agree that shallow sermons and motivational speeches have become a theological junk food many in mainstream Christianity live on, yet is there another kind of spiritual junk food that is starving even those of us who have left the mainstream church behind?

Episode Notes A few special announcements to our podcast listeners

Episode Notes If the trumpets blew today, what would run through your mind? For some, the sound of trumpets would be the sound of excitement itself, for it proclaims the return of their King. For others, the sound of trumpets is a gloomy sound that instills great fear. The sound of realizing: "I never had time to repent." It is time for us to face the only question that will ever really matter: Will the King know me? And what would He have to say about me? PARTNER WITH RISE ON FIRE: https://www.riseonfire.com/partner

Episode Notes The Bible is often criticized for having strange laws, such as commanding a man who wishes to marry a war captive to shave her head and have her mourn for a month. But is this a senseless law, or one of hidden blessing for the captive woman?

Episode Notes A popular claim made by those who believe spiritual gifts of prophecy, healing and tongues have ceased today is that Charismatics base their theology entirely off emotionalism and experiences, instead of Scripture. But could it be that Cessationists are guilty of the very thing they accuse Charismatics of? Is there any basis for Cessationist theology, and if so, what is it built upon?

Episode Notes We are excited to be in Wyoming, Oklahoma and Texas in the next 2 months! Come and join us at one of our events, and please pray for us.

Episode Notes Today I am excited to be joined live by Pastor John Diffenderfer! God is raising a generation on fire for God, called with a powerful calling to change the world. But it means placing our Kingdom Calling above all else, while putting off the distractions of the world. Many are called, but will you heed the call? How do we find our Kingdom Calling? How do we navigate the dangers of unbelief, lack of self-confidence, or pride in relation to calling?

Strangely, the Bible commands to not mix seeds in a vineyard, or unnaturally breed different kinds of animals. But what is this all about? And could it have something to do with the reason for Noah's flood, the giants of the Bible, and Israel's journey through the wilderness?

Episode Notes A new pandemic has arrived that distracts us to look upon others, while missing what's happening in our own hearts.

Episode Notes There's a lie in the church that says blasphemy of the Holy Spirit is the simple rejection of Christ as Messiah. But why does Yeshua contrast the blasphemy against the Son as forgivable, while blasphemy of the Holy Spirit is not? An unforgivable sin sounds like a scary idea, and for some even out of character of the Messiah Himself, but what did Yeshua really teach?

Episode Notes Did you know you’re a king? Yeshua calls us as kings and priests of His Kingdom. And as any king, you have treasures. But are some of us squandering our inheritance?

Episode Notes Look around you and ask: Where are the youth at our churches and conferences? Why are the numbers shrinking, and what can we do about it? We have a potential generational crisis on our hands with the next generation leaving the faith, and we must take prompt action, starting in our own households. Join me in this Thursday livestream to discuss this important issue.

Episode Notes Yeshua told us what the coming New Kingdom will be like, but are we already walking that kingdom out on Earth? Are we treating who will be greatest in the coming kingdom as the greatest today? Perhaps most surprisingly, Yeshua describes the "greatest" in the coming Kingdom to be whom we least expect.

Episode Notes When we've been deeply hurt by someone, the call to forgive them can seem possible at first - we pray the prayer, declare our forgiveness, yet we wake up the next day angry all over again. And 20 years later, we find ourselves with a heart of bitterness. How do we find lasting forgiveness? Forgiveness is not a prayer, or a single moment, but biblically - so much more. Join PD as he explores how to sow lasting forgiveness in our hearts.

Episode Notes The other day as PD and I were out for a walk, we came across the worst smell on planet earth: a dead skunk. But in my prayer time, God showed me that the worst smell on earth isn't a skunk, it's our sin. Join me as I delve into three things that Scripture says are a sweet aroma for our King!

Episode Notes What did Yeshua mean when he told the Samaritan woman that God is calling a people who will worship Him in Spirit and in Truth? Has the phrase "Spirit and Truth worship" become a cliché that has often been used, but rarely understood? Join PD and Zadoak Ministries as they have a podcast conversation exploring what Biblical Spirit and Truth worship is, looking at the walk of Yeshua.

Episode Notes Shalom everyone! I've been quiet lately, for good reason. The past few weeks, Father has guided me in putting together what I believe may be one of the most comprehensive evaluations of Cessationism ever done before. Cessationism is the prominent Reformed belief that the spiritual gifts of the Holy Spirit ceased with the 12 Apostles. This video will test all prominent Cessationist arguments, look at history and eyewitness accounts, and most importantly - test all these to Scripture. Above you can watch the sneak peek to get you excited, and next week the full episode launches.
