In this episode of The Ed Fernandez Show, Ed sits down and reveals the moment everything changed for the podcast. What started as a simple vision of showing the world that you can love Jesus and still enjoy the blessings of this life shifted dramatically the day his daughter came on the show — and a longtime employee walked out mid-episode. That moment exposed something bigger: this wasn’t going to be a show about possessions and faith. It was going to be a direct confrontation with the kingdom of darkness.

Ed opens up about the season where all hell broke loose, how he stepped into spiritual warfare without wisdom, and how that lack of discernment left him vulnerable. He talks candidly about frustration turning into compromise, compromise turning into iniquity, and how the real danger wasn’t the sin itself, but the ignorance that allowed darkness to remain unchallenged.

He explains what Scripture teaches about the enemy’s access to darkness, how unguarded parts of the heart become open doors, and why discernment—real, Holy-Spirit-led discernment—is often the gut feeling believers ignore. Ed breaks down the importance of understanding the battlefield of the mind, why Jesus was crucified at “the place of the skull,” and why renewing your mind is the starting point of every spiritual victory.

He walks through how Satan sifted Peter, why pride and resentment create legal access for the enemy, and how even justified anger can become a foothold if left unattended. Ed also unpacks the danger of holding bitterness in the heart, the spiritual consequences of going to bed angry, and why purity of heart is essential if you’re going to walk in authority.

The episode closes with a powerful prayer of repentance, release, and surrender—an invitation to shut every open door, expose every dark corner, and allow God to purify the heart so He can move freely in your life.

If you’ve ever felt attacked, overwhelmed, or blindsided in your walk with God, this episode speaks directly to you. It’s a clear, unfiltered call to fight with wisdom, think with clarity, and guard the territory of your mind and heart.
