In this episode of The Morning Charge, Joshua talks about assignments from God, the importance of obedience, and what happens when people keep delaying what God has placed in front of them.

Guard the Oil: Presence Over Position

In this episode of The Morning Charge, Joshua talks about the oil of God’s presence, the difference between carrying an anointing and chasing a position, and why private preparation matters. This message focuses on the contrast between Saul and David, the cost of carrying the oil, and the importance of letting God form character, obedience, and intimacy before stepping into a public assignment. It also highlights the need to stop forcing doors open and instead walk with discernment, humility, and trust in God’s timing. This episode is a reminder that what God develops in private is what He can trust in public.

It also highlights how believers can stay rooted in God’s Word, walk in authority, and live in a way that clearly reflects time spent with Jesus. This episode is a reminder that God is raising up people who are not driven by compromise or passivity.

Don't Get Lazy in the Good Seasons

In today’s episode of The Morning Charge, Joshua Hommes talks about a danger many believers do not always recognize: getting spiritually lazy when life is going well. It is easy to cry out to God in the valley. When the bills are due, the marriage is strained, the business is struggling, or life feels uncertain, most of us know how to pray with urgency. But what happens after the breakthrough comes? What happens when the bills are paid, the doors open, the family feels peaceful, and the season finally feels lighter? This episode is a practical and biblical reminder to stay close to God in every season, not just the difficult ones. Joshua walks through scriptures like Deuteronomy 8, John 15, Mark 1, Luke 5, Romans 12, and Revelation 2 to show why comfort can become dangerous when it causes us to forget the One who brought us through. This teaching will encourage you to stay rooted, keep tending the fire, practice remembrance, and continue seeking God’s face whether you are in the valley, on the mountain, or somewhere in between.
