In this powerful and thought-provoking episode of the Storehouse Media Group Podcast, host Sherrie Price Clark welcomes back Jody Corbett for a deep conversation that bridges faith, leadership, strategy, and spiritual warfare.
A retired FBI agent, pastor, and CEO, Jody brings a rare and compelling perspective shaped by decades of experience in law enforcement, ministry, and executive leadership. In this episode, he unpacks what he calls “Lucifer’s Strategy”—a framework for understanding how deception, division, overindulgence, pride, and chaos are used to distract individuals and societies from truth, purpose, and faith.
This conversation challenges listeners to think strategically—not just about business and leadership—but about the spiritual forces shaping culture, identity, and decision-making in today’s world.
🔹 Who Lucifer Is and Why It Matters
Jody explains the biblical origins of Lucifer, clarifying common misconceptions about angels, Satan, and spiritual authority. He breaks down why understanding the enemy is essential for spiritual discernment.
🔹 The Two-Pronged (Pincer) Strategy of Evil
Using a strategic lens, Jody outlines what he calls a left-pincer and right-pincer attack:
Left Pincer: Overindulgence, chaos, moral confusion, lawlessness, and the destruction of innocence
Right Pincer: Religious pride, self-righteousness, judgmentalism, and false moral superiority
Both approaches, he explains, lead people to focus on themselves instead of God.
🔹 “Did God Really Say?” – The Oldest Deception
Drawing from Genesis 3, Jody highlights how the enemy still uses the same tactic today—questioning God’s truth to justify excess, greed, addiction, sexual immorality, and misplaced priorities.
🔹 Pride vs. Humility: The Warning to the Faithful
Through Luke 18 (the Pharisee and the Tax Collector), Jody warns that pride within religious communities can be just as destructive as overt immorality. True faith, he emphasizes, is rooted in humility, repentance, and grace.
🔹 Division as a Weapon
The episode explores how division—political, racial, cultural, generational, and ideological—is intentionally amplified to fracture communities. Jody references Paul’s letters to early churches, showing that division has always been a threat to unity in faith.
🔹 Who the Real Enemy Is
Using Ephesians 6, Jody reminds listeners that the real battle is not against people with differing opinions, but against spiritual forces of evil—and that mistaking people as the enemy only furthers deception.
🔹 How Believers Win the Battle
The conversation ends with hope:
Jesus did not come to condemn, but to save (John 3:17)
Faith overcomes the world (1 John 5)
Christ has already defeated death (1 Corinthians 15)
Victory, Jody explains, comes through faith, truth, humility, and a personal relationship with Jesus Christ—not performance, appearances, or moral comparison.
This episode is especially relevant for:
Faith-based leaders and entrepreneurs
Christians navigating cultural conflict and polarization
Anyone wrestling with pride, fear, overindulgence, or division
Listeners seeking clarity, truth, and spiritual grounding in uncertain times
Jody Corbett’s message is not about fear—it’s about awareness, responsibility, and hope.
