Holy Fire or Strange Fire? When Judgment Begins at the House of God | KIB 507

Kingdom Intelligence Briefing

Description

Is the fire in today's churches from the Holy Spirit—or from Babylon? In this sobering episode of Kingdom Intelligence Briefing, Dr. Michael and Mary Lou Lake examine holy fire vs. strange fire, why judgment must begin at the house of God, and how the remnant can walk safely through coming judgments with their "censers" filled only with the fire of Heaven.

They discuss the persecution of believers in Nigeria, the subtle rise of entertainment-based Christianity, the danger of unholy manifestations in church, and the growing crisis of child trafficking as the true currency of Babylon. This is a call for deep repentance, discernment, and a return to God's ways so that the remnant can stand as God's special forces in the last days.

If you long for holiness, discernment, and the true fear of the Lord, this episode will both challenge and encourage you to examine the fire in your own life.

33:25 – Strange Fire in Scripture: Nadab & Abihu Leviticus 10 and the meaning of zor—strange fire as an enemy fire, connected to the imagery of the harlot of Babylon; mixing foreign fire with the altar of God.

38:00 – Korah's Rebellion & What's in Your Censer? Numbers 16: each man with his own censer. Our lives as censers that can carry either the fire of God or the fire of Babylon; Aaron running ahead of the plague with holy fire to stay judgment.

🔥 Descent Into Evil: How Nazi Ideology, the CIA, and Hidden History Shaped America – KWR0054

💬 Description

In this powerful Kingdom War Room episode, Dr. Michael Lake, Dr. Mike Spaulding, and Dr. Corby Shuey welcome researcher and author S. Douglas Woodward to expose the real history behind America's modern descent into authoritarianism, deception, and ideological corruption.

Drawing from his groundbreaking new book Descent Into Evil, Doug reveals how Nazi ideology migrated to American soil after World War II, became embedded within intelligence agencies, shaped decades of U.S. foreign policy, fueled mind-control experimentation, influenced space exploration, and ultimately set the stage for the spiritual deception unfolding today.

From Operation Paperclip… to the CIA's covert wars… to MKUltra and eugenics… to the UFO phenomenon of 1952… to the deep state mechanisms driving global events—this interview lays out the historical and spiritual realities behind the culture war gripping the world.

This is essential understanding for the Remnant. If we cannot discern our true history, we cannot discern the present moment—nor pray effectively for the future.

Warning to the Remnant: Stop Kicking Against the Goads & Learn to Run with the Horses (Jeremiah 12:5) | KIB 506

Kingdom Intelligence Briefing

Description

In this sobering Kingdom Intelligence Briefing (Episode 506), Dr. Michael and Mary Lou Lake share a prophetic warning for the remnant—and a deep call to spiritual maturity from Jeremiah 12:5.

Mary Lou shares how the Lord interrupted her plans for a "pleasant" Feast of Dedication message and instead commanded her to sound the alarm: those who refuse to leave pagan practices—especially Christmas—will see their infirmities worsen and the enemy's attacks intensify.

Dr. Lake then unpacks Jeremiah 12:5, "If you have raced with men on foot, and they have wearied you, how will you compete with horses?" showing how God is using today's pressures to train the remnant to run with the horses of the Kingdom in the dangerous "thickets of the Jordan" in these last days.

Along the way they discuss:

• The emotional "warm fuzzies" and childhood memories the enemy uses to keep believers tied to Christmas
• The occult, Masonic, and pagan roots of many modern Christmas traditions
• How commercialization, resonance, music, and nostalgia have been weaponized to keep God's people in bondage
• Why attacks often intensify when believers resist God's conviction and "kick against the goads"
• The rising beast system, AI, Nephilim technology, and Nazi/occult influence behind modern advancements
• How God is using small trials now to strengthen His remnant for greater pressure in the days ahead

This is not a message of condemnation, but of warning, mercy, and preparation. God is calling His people to lay aside the stones of Babylon, come out of pagan mixture, and use this "footman season" to deepen prayer, holiness, and endurance—so we're ready to stand in the thickets of Jordan.

🙏 Prayer at the end: Dr. Lake prays for a Jeremiah anointing over the remnant—to throw aside spiritual weights, embrace God's training, and become like David's mighty men in the unfolding of end-times prophecy.

Rediscovering the Lost Art of Walking with God | KIB 505

Kingdom Intelligence Briefing

Description

A heartfelt Veterans Day prayer, candid talk on current events, and a deeply practical call to walk with God continually—not just in set "prayer times." Dr. Michael and Mary Lou Lake unpack the Hebraic pattern of halikha (walking), Genesis 17's call to be tamiym (complete), the friendship of God that grows through constant conversation, and how everyday listening births real intercession that can change lives.

In this episode (KIB 505):

• Veterans Day gratitude & prayer for healing, provision, and justice
• Discerning the times without fear—and praying for spiritual awakening
• Why "talking with God all day" transforms prayer closet power
• Abraham's journey (Gen 17) and the invitation to walk before God as El Shaddai supplies every need
• Acts 4 boldness: being recognized as those who have been with Jesus
• Isaiah 11's seven-fold Spirit and cultivating holy reverence
• Practical stories: technical problems solved through dialogue with God, unexpected intercessions, and the joy that returns to daily obedience

Scripture references (ESV): Genesis 17:1, Matthew 6:7–8, Acts 4:13, Isaiah 11:1–3.

Dr. Mike Spaulding: Pastor, Lima Calvary Chapel, Host of Dr. Mike Live, aplogetist, and a prolific author.

Dr. Corby Shuey: Pastor, Mount Zion Road Church, President-Elect of Biblical Life Seminary, and Christian author.

Joel Richardson is a New York Times bestselling author, filmmaker, and Bible teacher known for his clear and passionate teaching on biblical prophecy, the return of Jesus, and God's redemptive plan for Israel and the nations. Through his books, films, and online content, Joel seeks to equip believers with a grounded, apocalyptic hope rooted in the Scriptures.

The Gospel of the Skull Crusher: The Gloriously Good News of God's Plan to Fix Everything is a sweeping journey through the entire biblical story—from Eden to the New Jerusalem—revealing the Messiah as the promised "seed of the woman" who crushes the serpent's head (Genesis 3:15).

This book traces the war between the two seeds through every major covenant, prophecy, and hope of Scripture. Combining biblical theology, prophetic insight, and devotional clarity, Joel Richardson unveils how the gospel is not merely about escaping this world, but about God's promise to restore all things through the victorious reign of His Son.

Description

Dr. Michael Lake is joined by Dr. Mike Spaulding, Dr. Corby Shuey, and special guest Joel Richardson (NYT bestselling author, filmmaker, Bible teacher) to unpack Joel's new book, The Gospel of the Skull Crusher: The Glorious Good News of God's Plan for Fixing Everything.

From Genesis 3:15 and the "war of the seeds" to Jesus as the Divine Warrior, we explore why the Bible is not just a promise book—it's a war narrative with a guaranteed victory at the Cross, fully manifested at the Lord's return. We tackle the "now and not yet" paradigm, embodied hope and the resurrection, the prophetic centrality of Israel (Abrahamic & Davidic covenants), and why recovering a Hebraic, non-Platonic worldview matters for discipleship, evangelism, and everyday faith.

Joel also shares why he crafted a tactile, heirloom-quality book (linen cover, foil, ribbon, full-color art) to help readers slow down, wonder, and worship—plus how to access his ongoing chapter-by-chapter Bible study series.

Take Off the Masks: Choosing God's Reality Over Babylon's Illusions | KIB 503

Kingdom Intelligence Briefing

Description

There's a war on for your identity. In this Kingdom Intelligence Briefing, Dr. Michael and Mary Lou Lake expose the spiritual "masks" the enemy uses—from sanitized cultural traditions to personal coping personas—and invite the Remnant to step into truth, transparency, and freedom in Christ.

From Halloween's ancient roots to the modern pressure to "perform," we trace how unreality keeps believers stuck—and how the Holy Spirit heals, restores, and re-aligns us with God's design. We also pray for the grieving, cover the Remnant during this season, and offer practical next steps: renouncing occult doors, affirming our children's identity in Jesus, seeking wise counsel when needed, and learning to live mask-free before God and one another.

"Therefore, having put away falsehood, let each one of you speak the truth with his neighbor, for we are members one of another." — Ephesians 4:25 (ESV)

Highlights

• Why the Word of God is a war book—and why unreality is a weapon of the enemy
• Ancient and modern uses of masks (ritual, identity-shifting, and social control)
• The danger of "sanitized" paganism and why God says "Come out of her, my people"
• Parenting through cultural pressure—affirming identity in Christ
• Personal testimonies: fear of rejection, humor as a mask, and God's gentle dismantling
• Practical deliverance: renouncing doors, pleading the blood of Jesus, and wise counseling
• Helmet of salvation vs. masks of unreality—how to walk in truth

🙏 Prayer points in this episode: comfort for Bruce and family, protection over the Remnant during this season, and grace to drop every mask and stand in Christ's reality.

Truth vs. Twisting: Isaiah 5, Leviathan, and Courage for the Remnant | KIB 502

Kingdom Intelligence Briefing

Description

"Woe to those who call evil good and good evil…" (Isaiah 5:20, ESV). In Kingdom Intelligence Briefing Episode 502, Dr. Michael and Mary Lou Lake address today's climate of fear, the cultural normalization of darkness (especially around Halloween), and the Leviathan spirit that twists truth and communication. From Isaiah 5's "wild grapes" to Jesus' teaching on the vineyard, we explore how societies—and even churches—descend into madness when they reject God's covenant, and how the remnant can stand firm in humility, prayer, and truth.

Key Scriptures (ESV):

• Isaiah 5:1–7, 20 — Wild grapes & calling evil good
• 2 Timothy 1:7 — "God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control."
• John 15:5 — "I am the vine; you are the branches…"

What you'll gain: biblical clarity on fear vs. faith, how to recognize Leviathan's twisting, practical steps for spiritual warfare, and hope that God is extending a "loop of mercy" for preparation and harvest.

Raising Deborahs & Defending the Word: Spiritual Warfare for the Last Days | KIB 501

Kingdom Intelligence Briefing

Description

In this Feast of Tabernacles episode of Kingdom Intelligence Briefing (KIB 501), Dr. Michael and Mary Lou Lake call the remnant to the Word and the War—urging believers to return to a physical Bible, cultivate a warfare worldview, and pray for strong women of faith to rise like Deborah and Esther (and for redeemed Rahabs and Tamars to step boldly into God's plan). We unpack why everything is spiritual warfare, how the Word of God births, cleanses, protects, heals, and equips, and why Psalm 22 stands as a stunning fulfilled prophecy of Messiah's crucifixion. Practical tools for marking your Bible, study tips, and a recommended read—God at War by Gregory Boyd—are included.

What you'll get in this message

• How God uses flawed people and raises mighty women in this hour
• Why a physical Bible (with margins & proper highlighters) matters
• The warfare worldview from Moses to Paul—and what it means for daily discipleship
• Ten+ ways the Word transforms believers (life, cleansing, protection, healing, discernment, faith, renewal, equipping, fruitfulness, alignment with God's will)
• Psalm 22 as a precise, fulfilled prophecy of the crucifixion
• A call to pray over leaders, courts, and national issues with hope and perseverance

Scriptures & themes referenced (not exhaustive): Judg 4–5 (Deborah), Esth 4–5 (Esther), Gen 38 (Tamar), Josh 2 (Rahab), Exod 15:1–3; Gen 1–3; Deut 32; Ps 1; Ps 22; Ps 107:20; Prov 4:20–22; Isa 55:11; John 6:63; 15:3; Rom 12:2; 10:17; Eph 6; 5:26; 2 Tim 3:16–17; Heb 4:12; Luke 8:11–15.
