Most of the time spiritual warfare operates at just a low enough grade that you don’t resist it. It lingers in the background. But the moment you resist it you’ll discover how forceful and malevolent the spirit is. Ephesians 1:17 to the end = Resurrection Power. Thank you so much for this teaching 🤠

I have been listening to WAH for several years and now can watch also. These have been very helpful, especially the series on spiritual warfare. I have listened to it 3-4 times. These have helped me sustain reading/studying Scripture on a daily basis for over five years. That led me to do a few physical things that have made a difference in my spiritual life and I believe have been helpful in protecting me from spiritual attack. The first was daily scripture and prayer which is really both physical and spiritual. The second was ceasing to watch or listen to the news/opinion bombardment. Then God took me in a direction that only recently did I realize was helping spiritually. I started a journey to improve my health. I was 64 years old and felt pretty awful much of the time. I did a lot of research and trial and gradually reduced sugar intake. I lost some weight and felt better, but no good. Eight months ago I started eating only meat, eggs, and some dairy. In two weeks or so my brain fog was almost gone. I rarely have those short term memory losses and can concentrate on God's Word so much better. My health has improved greatly and I feel better than I did 10-15 years ago, both physically and spiritually. Thanks for all you do and for the help along the way. We have also started a Fires group which has already been a great tool for discipleship.

I'm SO blessed to have found your podcast! Thank you🙏❤️

I feel led to offer something. As I listened, something occurred to me. I believe the elusiveness of this mental attack is because it is not emotional but more about cognition. It is something that confuses rather than suddenly attacking how we feel. We have just been calling it "Long Covid." And that's why this podcast threw me for a while. But the Lord kept having me go back to the latter 3rd of the podcast to catch something. Then it hit me. Like ourselves, God has called MANY of us these latter days to head into a new work in the Kingdom. Callings, if you will, whatever that might be for the person. THIS is, in part, an attempt to thwart the clarity of calling and direction, and thus the progress forward that the enemy sees coming, right down to the individual. Bless you guys and all the work you do. John

Dear John and Allen, I have not listened to your podcast for a while now and this morning I woke up needing to use the Pause App and to get in front of God intimately. From the start of my work day until lunch time I experienced something very unusual (unusual in the sense that I had not experienced this type of overwhelm, anxiety and fragmented thinking since before I was saved). I was unable to think properly, concentrate or reason for the first half of my day to the point where I was bursting with anger and a ton of other emotions. For the past year I have been noticing an inability to remember things, focus or actually take anything in. Last week I wrote this exact prayer in my journal, “Lord, help me to be able to retain information, specifically scripture.” I’m so thankful for this podcast and for how God is using you to reach people. People like me. It’s things like this that we are in danger of as believers in Jesus Christ - when we start to allow the belief that this type of thinking (or rather inability to think) and behaviour is simply the result of a busy schedule, stress or anxiety at work but, this is something different.

I knew it. I absolutely knew it. Starting in October 2019, very bad panic attacks started for me. A sense of fear and dread and isolation I had never felt before. Then 2020 happened and it all came to fruition. Months leading up to a friends suicide, I felt this feeling and sense of it, and I audibly heard a voice tell me “kill yourself”. Now, there is an extreme sense of urgency, a preparations, and anger. Lots and lots of anger. And confusion. Lord be with us, we got this. We are warriors in Christ. Stay vigilant and stay prepared.

Thank you for this teaching on spiritual warfare. I found the deconstructing that Satan does to all of God's creations to be especially helpful. It really shines a light on all the attacks that happen in Christian's lives and in the world today. I am trying to prepare myself to handle whatever comes my way. I have felt that weightiness in my spirit recently. God is my rock! Prayer everyday is my connection to Him. Amen.

Victory! Victory! Victory in our blessed Savior who gave all....for us. Fill your people, Jesus. Thank you for the hope in You!

I am grateful for your day lighting of death and hatred, desolation and the global mind suppression. I have experienced all of these in my life since 2019. Before I had heard you talk about them I felt all alone in this awareness of this escalated spiritual warfare. Thank you

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!! This resonated with me so much…Victory in Jesus!!!

Thanks soooooo much for helping me and for being there just when I needed you 💞 Namaste

Perfect description...totally relate..very helpful and much needed conversation!🙏 there is no peace outside of God...

This is so incredibly helpful!!!!! For me, this comes down to faith. I either believe the Bible is true or not. And once I am settled on belief, then I am compelled to follow (choose to pray these prayers). God does the supernatural part. What an absolute rescue for my mind!!!Thank you sooo much!!!!!!! ❤

@2:20 "Pause" necessary, holy, grateful. Listened to the podcast, then went back and watched YT version while taking notes and looking up scripture. I've read several of your books and getting ready to start Resilient study at church this week. God bless you, John (and team)! Thank you for all you do and for making a difference in all our walks in faith!

Thank you! I’m especially thankful for the days we were locked down when John and Staci came on to explain and encourage. John kept saying in this podcast, “I need to get to this.” I’d love to have more structure and instructions during these conversations so I could take notes. Blessings on you both and your ministry. I LOVE the PAUSE app and have shared it with many friends 🙏🏻🩵🤠

I listened first to the podcast and then hopped over here to watch and take notes. Such a powerful message. Looking forward to next week's episode!

Thank you for speaking the truth and instructing us in how to stand in victory in Christ!

I believed for a while, that it was a mid-life thing but I see it more and more among the youth. It is reminiscent of a zombie moment. I found myself looking for my glasses last week and they were on my face.

Helpful, encouraging and practical. Thanks brothers.

Thank you, this is so helpful. Please we need more teaching like this and practical examples of how to pray!

Extremely helpful!! Thank you so much!

Really love the videos. Such an encouraging start to the week!

WoW! Listening to this definitely helped me not feel so alone! So grateful for yous and the pause app. I use it as a tool in my practice for every client to download. Please pray for me because there have been numerous times when I just wanted to quit this career, but in my weakness Jesus is strong! Hallelujah!

We were brought here to manage and to bring the kingdom of heaven to earth. Tell everybody to quit trying to find comfort and get their battle gear on and get into the government and change it.

Yes... "My time's not short, yours is." I love it - remembering the victory has already been won. I love the prayers of love and river of life and will use them, thank you. I will add that I believe even "trauma and post-covid brain" as you called out as "real" is also not of God and is healed by him. All forms of disorder and chaos come from the enemy (as does disease), and though those things do well to have additional forms of healing, God can heal even that with prayer. I have been told I have ADD, but I can take authority over the spirit of dis-order, confusion and chaos in Jesus name and get clarity and order. It is getting better the more that I enforce that -- God is bringing order to something I have struggled with my whole life. I can feel the warfare around it, but I don't have to tolerate it now that I am saved by HIM. Just thought I'd mention that. I also have a history of trauma, and have done other forms of healing. Some believe ADD and trauma have a connection.

My precious brothers, I've been so deeply blessed by your ministry for decades, and I thank you & PTL for you. Out of sincerity though, kindly clarify for me this: the different prayers for different evils, seem a little formulaic... I was raised in the Catholic church where prayers seemed rote & formulaic to me, so my antennae are highly sensitive to that, vs what I learned as a born-again believer, where you prayed from the heart instead. All that to say, would you kindly speak to this & clarify what you're recommending in contrast to my previous bias?!? I don't want to miss the gifts you're offering! Thank you & may God prosper & protect you all; your families & ministry in Jesus' name! 🕊🌠🔥🕯💫🎶🙏🎵💥

For a split second I’ve searched for my phone while watching a podcast… on my phone. 😂

Thank you so much for this.

This is great, and valuable... I wonder if it is possible to receive the source for the statistic of a 5000% increase on female gender dysphoria in 3 years? I knew it has become epidemic, but this is staggering indeed.

P.S. - thanks for the tip that we can put your suggestions into practice in our kingdom but not globally. My question is: is this just the enemy bringing chaos or God shaking the earth so every knee will bow? Both?

Can you do a show on wilful sin. Every day I repent then drink, for my depression gets so bad. Does God stop forgiving me?

Please put on your site a prayer against this stuff that Includes all the elements you taught in this podcast.🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Our W@H small group is discussing Moving Mountains, and this week Chapter 14 Warfare Prayer. After Survival School, you sent us warfare and daily prayers invoking the “full and final judgment of Christ” as well as the Fire, Glory, and Wrath of heaven upon foul spirits, in particular those that resist when commanded to leave. I hope you will provide context & instruction on the use of this type of warfare prayer. Thank you!

The Body is not aware of what is going on!!

I would love to know the name of the music playing during the pause!

An iron curtain over faith huh? No, people are finding GOD while in their homes. Not at a church. But the hour comes and now is, when true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth ❤️ for the Father seeketh such to worship Him. God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in Spirit and in truth 💕🙏🏽💕 St. John 4:23

Cognitive dissonance… It is a plan of the enemy… May God gather up the fragments of our mind, and make us whole again

Did you say that we are created as amfibians? Where does this idea come from? Can you give some more information on this?

Why does he keep saying we are amphibious? Someone please help me. I can't live in water.

What is meant when Johns says we are amphibians?
