What Happens When We Behold Him (Understanding the Fear of the Lord)

When a holy awe of God is missing from our pursuit of Him, all that remains is hype and performance. But when we truly behold Him, everything changes. In this powerful message, I expose one of the most under-preached truths in Scripture, the fear of the Lord, and show how it is not terror that drives us away from God but awe that draws us close. Through the story of Isaiah’s encounter in Isaiah 6, I reveal that the fear of the Lord is not about punishment but about Presence. When we see Him rightly: * Sin loses its grip. * Striving gives way to surrender. * Holiness becomes the natural result of intimacy. This message will awaken your spirit to rediscover what happens when you truly behold God, when you move from religious performance to personal transformation. Scriptures Referenced: Isaiah 6:1–8, 2 Corinthians 3:16–18, Hebrews 12:28–29, Psalm 27:4, Exodus 20:20 Key Takeaways: * You do not get holy by trying harder; you get holy by looking longer. * The fear of the Lord is not punishment-based; it is presence-based. * Sin cannot stand where His presence abides. * True transformation begins with beholding His beauty. About the Message: If you are weary of surface-level Christianity, tired of chasing hype, or ready to experience the power of God’s holiness again, this message is for you. It is time to stop striving for perfection and start beholding the One who makes you whole. 00:00 Introduction and Current Times 00:48 The Power of Beholding 03:26 Understanding the Fear of the Lord 08:03 Isaiah's Encounter with God 11:34 Personal Story and Revelation 14:56 The Enemy's Limitations 20:18 The Importance of Worship 25:57 Grace, Fear, and Holiness 31:06 Call to Behold and Transform 37:04 Closing Prayer and Farewell Subscribe for more bold, reformational episodes that equip and challenge.

Rosh Hashannah 5786 Prophetic Word

We have just crossed over into Rosh Hashanah, the biblical Feast of Trumpets and the beginning of the Hebrew year 5786. This is not just another date on the calendar. It is a prophetic moment, a wake up call from the Lord to return to His original design for the church, to strengthen our homes, and to fasten our words and our lives to covenant truth. In this message, I share what God has been speaking to me about this new year. We are in the decade of the open mouth. The number six, Vav, speaks of a nail and a connector. The Lord is putting a spotlight on the family table as a place of covenant, discipleship, and preparation for the harvest. We are in a time of shifting and sifting, and the trumpet is sounding. Wake up. Remember what I have done. Turn back to the King.

The Invasion of Artificial Intelligence & How The Church Should Respond

We are entering an era where artificial relationships are being marketed as emotional solutions. In this episode of Breaking Through the Noise, I respond to recent developments in AI, including Mark Zuckerberg’s announcement of customizable AI “friends”—and explore what this means for the future of human connection, dating, marriage, and parenting. What does it mean to be truly human in a world flooded with synthetic interactions? As the line between real and artificial continues to blur, the Church must rise as the last pure example of Kingdom relationships. This episode is not just a warning—it’s a roadmap. It’s time for the body of Christ to set the standard for meaningful connection in a disconnected world.
