In a world saturated with endless information, discerning truth from falsehood is more critical than ever, especially within the prophetic realm.

Following others without testing the spirit? Don't let unhealed people, even social media gurus and high-level Christian entrepreneurs, sway you from the path God has laid out specifically for you. Discernment is key. The narrow path isn't easy peasy to follow, but always rewarding. Trust the Holy Spirit's guidance above everyone else's clamor. Others mean well, but your journey is NOT their journey ... I've learned this the hard way, my friends.
A genuine relationship with Jesus is a continuous healing journey of repentance, persistence, perseverance, and resisting the enemy's attacks. A...

Many prideful leaders are pounding ungodly doctrine down the throats of many wounded Christians ... manipulating and trying to gain control over souls, which is a form of witchcraft. This pattern is still being witnessed in various churches and on social media as a worldly recognition; often involving occult impartations and the glorification of self!
A spiritual covering is NOT required for accountability. Let's be clear: You're covering and ultimate authority belongs to God, NOT man! Be wary of leaders who...

God has had ENOUGH of our rebellion, false loyalties, false prophets and leaders, idolatry, disobedience, and worshipping pagan gods, in particular Baal and Molech. Therefore, judgment must be unleashed; it will NOT be tolerated in God's Kingdom!
God is calling for a return to Him alone, a restoration of desolate lands, and the rebuilding of what has been destroyed due to misalignment and falsehood. God is calling people to flee spiritual "Babylon" with the influence of the "north," signaling judgment and the need to return to...

It's either one extreme or the other with no balance in the body of Christ. It's NOT about numbers, popularity, or status to fill ego and self. It's about truly representing the heart of the Father with purity. What we are viewing on social media and witnessing in many churches today is not the flow of the Holy Spirit. A five-fold team co-labors together, each flowing in their unique gifting, yet together; brings unity to the body of Christ to help build and equip maturity while avoiding falsehood. (See Ephesians 4:11-16). It's...

Sadly, "decree and declare" statements are twisted, and many believe that speaking positive affirmations into existence can manifest desired outcomes. Is this practice truly biblical, or does it lead Christians down a dangerous path of deception? Let's examine and debunk the numerous misused Scriptures (Matthew 7:7-8, Mark 11:23-24, Job 22:28) that many fall for in the body of Christ. Melia unveils the danger of self-reliance; unfolding a prophetic warning against manipulating God's Word and demanding things into existence!

In any journey of spiritual freedom, deliverance is often viewed as a quick fix, but true liberation requires much more than a "quicky deliverance" session! It's essential to understand that while casting out demons is a vital step, it is not the end-all of the multi-layered and complicated process of releasing strongholds. Healing and ministering to an individual, with gentleness, plays a crucial role in your transformative journey. Without addressing the deep-rooted wounds and trauma within a wounded soul, individuals may find themselves trapped in a vicious cycle of recurring patterns. Embrace the wisdom that healing...

The Lord is against all new moon celebrations; which are linked to witchcraft and idol worship. A prophetic dream revealed an enemy attack symbolized by eaten strawberries. God's message: "Our 'vineyard' is targeted without repentance!" This isn't about rejecting the beauty of God's creation, but about discerning the spiritual forces at play during this potent lunar cycle that is celebrated and idolatrous.

Several deities: Sobek, Amon, Behemoth, and Khnum were revealed and associated with the Nile River in my dreams.

Spirit of religion is characterized by outward righteousness – attending church and performing religious duties – without the corresponding inner transformation of the heart and mind.

Possession requires ownership. You must understand the effects of a wounded soul to grip this eye-opening reality! The enemy loves open doors. Therefore, desiring inner healing, deliverance, and understanding the pitfalls of spiritual warfare as a follower of Christ is vital. It's plastered all over the Bible for a reason, my friends!

Without the Holy Spirit guiding us to God's truth, no discernment is dispersed! Too many Christians are not testing the spirit (See 1 John 4:1) because they don't spend time with Jesus or study their Bible to know the difference between a spirit of truth (Holy Spirit) verses a spirit of deception (Satan).
Nobody, including myself, will not be able to have wise discernment, without a vertical relationship with Jesus. Exploring the Trinity's power, Melia illustrates how the Holy Spirit acts as our advocate and teacher, revealing the depths within Scripture to determine the difference...

False prophets and those who seek their guidance will all be punished for their sins. (Ezekiel 14:4-10). False prophets and leaders are only after your money, selfish ambitions, high status, vain imaginations, and loads of followers ... Unfortunately, false prophets do not really care about your well-being.

Many times, people operating in unhealed trauma have no idea anything is wrong because it's their normal. But, it's not someone else's. Perhaps, yelling and screaming was an ordinary occurrence in your family? Or promoting promiscuous or hateful behavior without repercussions was perfectly acceptable? Either way, we don't expect Christians to behave improperly, but many still operate from a wounded soul. Find out if you, or someone you love, is functioning in their dysfunction!

Many times, the deceptive nature of evil, that's rooted in witchcraft, has a greater potential for curses to be placed on individuals without them even knowing it! Witchcraft is used by the enemy to attack our relationships by using manipulation, intimidation, and control. More than ever, we need to protect ourselves, stay close to Jesus, and use wise discernment living in this dark world.

We feel the first arrow when we experience something painful, and it’s healthy to acknowledge that pain. But often we shoot a second arrow into ourselves by resisting the pain and turning it into anger, shame, criticism, rumination, etc. Melia and Gill share their second arrows of choice and...
