A few nights ago I had dream where I saw ministers standing behind pulpits, dressed in influence, preaching from polished platforms, speaking to crowds… but when I looked closer, their hands were covered in blood.

Not visible to the people or from the stage, but undeniable in the Spirit.

The blood was from neglect and compromise.

Souls that were never warned.
Captives that were never confronted.
Chains that were never challenged.

Sin that was dressed up, softened, and served in a way that made people comfortable, but never free.

I can’t shake this today, this dream was a warning from heaven.

There are ministers who have traded the power of God for the approval of man.

Who have diluted the message to fill seats instead of altars.

Who have learned how to gather crowds but have lost the anointing that breaks yokes.

You can build a room full of people and still leave them bound.

And the word of the Lord is, “their blood will be on your hands.”

Because a gospel that does not call people out of darkness is not the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

A message that never confronts sin will never produce transformation.

A word that costs nothing carries no authority to set captives free.

But I hear the Holy Spirit saying, “it’s coming down.”

Every platform that was built by flesh…
Every ministry sustained by manipulation…
Every pulpit that became a stage…
Every altar that was replaced with a brand…

It’s coming down.

God is tearing down what He did not build.

Every high place is being brought low.

Every minister who has preached to line their pockets, is being brought low.

Every leader who has used people to build their own name, is being brought low.

Every voice that compromised truth to gain followers, is being brought low.

You can gain influence and lose your soul.
You can grow a platform and grieve the Spirit.
You can become known by people and unknown by God.

And there are those who have defiled themselves just to stay relevant… watering down holiness, silencing conviction, avoiding the hard truths,
because truth doesn’t trend and conviction doesn’t always fill seats.

But heaven is not measuring your ministry by your popularity.

Heaven is measuring it by your obedience.

And the Lord is exposing it all.

He is exposing the mixture.
He is exposing the compromise.
He is exposing the motives.

Those who have blood on their hands, He is bringing it into the light.

Because it would be better to have a small room full of people who are free, than a packed building full of people still in chains.

God did not call us to be relevant, He called us to be righteous.

There is a holy fear returning to the pulpit.

There is a refining fire coming to ministries.

And what cannot stand in the fire will not remain.

This is not just judgment, this is mercy.

Because God is giving time to repent.

To the minister who knows they’ve compromised, repent.

To the one who has softened the message, repent.

To the one who has built something God never asked for, repent.

Wash your hands.
Tear down your idols.
Return to the altar.

Because the same God who tears down what is false, will rebuild what is surrendered.

~I can’t help but wonder…am I a preacher with blood on my hands??

Deep in the recesses of my soul…am I looking for a platform?

Am I looking for praise of self over praise of Christ?

Human nature is a fickle thing…

One moment you’re living for selflessness and the next you’re living for clicks….

The devil surely knows the game he plays

Pray for me…I truly need it

Devo 4/16/26…

Unless your faith is firm,
I cannot make you stand firm.” Is. 7:9bNLT

If you[a] are not firm in faith,
you will not be firm at all.’” Is. 7:9bESV

We’ve all heard the phrase, “If you don’t stand for something then you’ll fall for anything”. Well, it is true. You need to stand for something. You need to have some sort of purpose, goal or vision for your life. As believers we must stand on our faith. Standing on our faith means that there may be times where we may be put into uncomfortable positions in which we are to stand. There also may be times where, when we stand on our faith we may make others feel uncomfortable or we might put ourselves into volatile situations. No matter the situation or the reason, there will be many occasions throughout our lives where we will be called to do so.

When those times arise we must be firm in our faith. We must be immovable and strong in our faith. Our faith in Jesus must be solid. The two most common ways that we can actively build our faith is by reading and studying the Word. And, by the hearing of the Word: preaching or teaching (Romans 10:17 & 2 Timothy 3:16-17). Building our faith must be done everyday if we are to stand on it firmly. If we are to defend ourselves against the world. The world will throw anything and everything at us to try to take us down everyday.

Matt. 7:24-27NLT, Anyone who listens to my teaching and follows it is wise, like a person who builds a house on solid rock. 25 Though the rain comes in torrents and the floodwaters rise and the winds beat against that house, it won’t collapse because it is built on bedrock. 26 But anyone who hears my teaching and doesn’t obey it is foolish, like a person who builds a house on sand. 27 When the rains and floods come and the winds beat against that house, it will collapse with a mighty crash.”

Which is why the scripture Is. 7:9 speaks volumes: If you are not firm in faith, you will not be firm at all. So, if you don’t know your Word, apply it, live it and walk in it, you will not be firm at all. You won’t be able to stand because you’ll have nothing to stand on. Without the Word as your foundation all other ground is sinking sand. God’s Word is the solid rock. He cannot make you stand firm unless your faith in Him is firm, and your faith in Him is cemented by you following and listening to His teachings.
