In Red Church today, Joseph Z highlights the church’s critical role in restraining evil and calls believers to remain steadfast, even in victory. He emphasizes the power of revelation, endurance through trials, and being spiritually “salted” to influence the world.

Joseph explains that the victories we are experiencing in our nation come from the church fulfilling its role as a deterrent against all forms of evil. He encourages the church to keep its promises, emphasizing that we must not be defeated by success. He urges the church to continue actively fighting until our enemies are defeated.

He references Proverbs 29:18, warning that people cast off restraint where there is no vision. Joseph elaborates that many who lack revelation from the Lord miss their divine purpose. He uses Mark 9:50 to highlight the importance of having “salt” within ourselves and making peace with everyone. He reiterates that it is not enough to simply know Jesus; we must believe in Him and allow His words to manifest fruit in our lives. He explains that our gifts are activated when we are filled with God’s word and are further developed through continuous reading of Scripture.

Joseph also cites James 1:2, urging us to count it all joy when we face various trials, knowing that the testing of our faith produces patience. He encourages us to let patience complete its work so we become perfect and complete, lacking nothing. When we embrace our identity and have “salt” within us, we become magnets for God’s will.

He further alludes to the story of James and John, who both promised to drink from the same cup as Jesus. While James faced an early fate, John outlived all the other disciples. This was due to John's revelation of being “the one whom the Lord loves.” Joseph concludes by stating that understanding God's love for us enables us to repel hell and draw heaven closer to us.
