**Your faith is the power that brings the world to its knees.** In today's prophetic live broadcast, Joseph Z teaches how to overcome institutionalism—the dark, nefarious institutions that seek to control and dominate our world. He explains how the Pharisees came to be, revealing that they allowed man-made rules and ideals to intercept the pure word of the Lord, which originally had a good foundation. Consequently, they worshipped the law instead of the Creator, infusing their ideas and interpretations into the law and thereby institutionalizing the revelation.

Joseph urges us to rend our hearts and not our garments because God is ready to break the institutions within us that make His word ineffective. He emphasizes that we are not called to be simply nice as Christians, but to be good people who boldly stand against wickedness. He recalls the brave actions of John the Baptist, who called out Herod for taking his brother's wife. He also reminds us of God's word in Matthew 16:25, which warns that whoever seeks to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for His sake will find it. When we surrender to God, we begin to experience the peace that surpasses all understanding. Joseph further explains that when we know who we are in Christ Jesus, we can stand against every demonic influence and wickedness in our culture. Jesus has informed us that we will face trouble in this world, but He encouraged us to take heart because He has overcome the world. Additionally, the Book of 1 John 4:17 reassures us of the perfection of God's love in our lives; as He is, so are we in this world. Joseph assures us that the same power that raised Christ Jesus from the dead dwells within us, and we are expected to rise and stand against the wicked culture by faith. Our faith is indeed the power that brings the world to its knees.
