In 2019, God birthed a burden in my spirit for His Church—a burden that has only grown heavier with each passing year. What you’re about to read comes from years of wrestling with a troubling reality: why do so many believers live powerless lives when we serve an all-powerful God?
For too long, I’ve watched the Church accept defeat as normal, embrace mediocrity as acceptable, and settle for a form of godliness that denies the very power that should define us. I’ve seen believers who claim to know God yet live in constant doubt, fear, and unbelief regarding His promises. I’ve witnessed a Church that talks about miracles but can’t demonstrate them, that preaches about transformation but remains unchanged.
This disconnect between what we profess and what we experience isn’t just disappointing—it’s dangerous. When the Church operates without power, souls remain lost, the sick stay afflicted, and the enemy advances unchallenged. Meanwhile, we wonder why the world looks at Christianity with skepticism and why our witness lacks credibility.
But it doesn’t have to be this way.
The pages that follow contain a prophetic call to the Church a call to examine why we’ve lost our power and how we can reclaim it. This message isn’t comfortable, but it’s necessary. It’s not popular, but it’s true. And it’s not meant to condemn, but to awaken a sleeping giant.
The Church that Jesus died for, the Church that He’s coming back for, is not powerless. It’s time we remembered who we are and whose we are. It’s time to move from religious performance to supernatural reality. It’s time to discover where the power went—and how to get it back.
The burden of this message has cost me sleep, brought me to tears, and driven me to my knees. But if it awakens even one believer to their true calling and authority in Christ, every word will have been worth it.
Welcome to the journey from powerless to powerful. Welcome to the Church as God intended it to be. another page.
