🌬️ A Voice in the Wind: “The Storm We Were Told Would Never Come”: Standing Against Authoritarianism

They told us not to worry. They told us we were overreacting. They told us the system would hold.

But now the wind is howling.

You can hear it in the silence after another protest silenced. You can feel it in the fear behind every dissenting voice. You can see it in the laws reshaped to punish, not protect.

It codifies suspicion. It criminalizes memory. It bans the books that birthed our conscience.

And still— we are not broken. We are awakening.

Authoritarianism doesn’t arrive with a bang. It arrives through paperwork and press releases. Through the erosion of rights, one decree at a time. Through fear dressed as order. Control disguised as safety.

But we were born for this moment.

We are those who remember what liberty sounds like. We are those who still know what truth feels like. We are those who will not go quiet, even if we must speak against the wind.

So hear this: We are not waiting for the next savior. We are becoming the answer we prayed for.

Refuse to lie when truth is costly. Refuse to bow when silence is easier. Refuse to forget what freedom feels like.

Let those with ears to hear, listen. Let those with hearts to move, rise. Let those with power to speak, speak now—before the last light fades.

Because this time, we are the wind.

And if no one else will stand, we will. Because to resist injustice is not just political— it is holy.

✨ Una Voz en el Viento

“La Tormenta Que Dijeron Que Nunca Vendría” : De pie contra el autoritarismo

Nos dijeron que no nos preocupáramos. Nos dijeron que estábamos exagerando. Nos dijeron que el sistema resistiría.

Pero ahora el viento aúlla.

Puedes oírlo en el silencio tras otra protesta silenciada. Puedes sentirlo en el miedo que se oculta tras cada voz disidente. Puedes verlo en las leyes remodeladas para castigar, no para proteger.

Y aún así— no estamos rotos.

Estamos despertando.

El autoritarismo no llega con un estruendo. Llega mediante documentos y comunicados de prensa. A través de la erosión de derechos, un decreto a la vez. Con miedo disfrazado de orden. Control disfrazado de seguridad.

Pero nacimos para este momento.

Somos quienes recuerdan cómo suena la libertad. Somos quienes aún saben cómo se siente la verdad. Somos quienes no se quedarán en silencio, incluso si debemos hablar contra el viento.

Así que escucha esto: No estamos esperando al próximo salvador. Nos estamos convirtiendo en la respuesta por la que oramos.

Que quienes tengan oídos para oír, escuchen. Que quienes tengan corazones para moverse, se levanten. Que quienes tengan poder para hablar, hablen ahora—antes de que se apague la última luz.

Porque esta vez, nosotros somos el viento.

Examining the Spirit Behind NAR and Prosperity Teachings

April 29, 2025

There is a doctrine spreading in modern Christianity that promises power, wealth, and divine authority for a price. It masquerades as truth but echoes a lie as old as Eden. It is the claim that humanity can ascend to be like God.

False teachings like “ye are little gods” have been advanced by well-known prosperity and NAR (New Apostolic Reformation) figures such as Kenneth Copeland, Benny Hinn, and Paul Crouch. Copeland even went so far as to claim that Adam was God manifested in the flesh and that he was not subordinate to God.

This is not merely poor theology. It is direct heresy.

Adam was created by God (Genesis 1:26-27). He bore God’s image but was never God. A created being is by definition subordinate to the Creator. Only one is God manifested in the flesh — Jesus Christ (John 1:14).

The idea that Adam was equal to God before the fall denies the very nature of sin, subverts the need for redemption, and lays the groundwork for a counterfeit gospel in which humans are taught they can become gods themselves. But Genesis 2:16 says clearly: “The Lord God commanded the man.” Command implies subordination.

This false doctrine has been subtly introduced over decades, leading countless believers astray. It exchanges humility for hubris, obedience for ambition, truth for illusion. And it must be named.

Adam's purpose was to live in obedience and dependence on God. To say otherwise is to echo the satanic doctrine of spiritual rebellion — the very lie that cast Lucifer down: “I will ascend... I will make myself like the Most High.” (Isaiah 14:13-14)

If Adam wasn't subordinate to God, then sin wasn't rebellion, and Christ's atonement would have been for nothing.

This doctrine denies the necessity of obedience, humility, repentance, and submission — the very foundations of walking with God. It exalts man and lowers God to our level. This is not merely error. This is the spirit of Antichrist, which exalts humanity and minimizes Christ.

Rebellion against God's will did not free Adam and Eve. It made them fallen.

Isaiah 43:10 reminds us: “Before Me there was no God formed, and there will be none after Me.” 1 Timothy 2:5 declares: “For there is one God, and one mediator between God and man, the man Christ Jesus.”

Jesus is the fulfillment of all patriarchal roles. The Church is a spiritual house that the Lord dwells in. Leadership in the Church should look like servant-hearted shepherds.

All true authority flows from Christ. No human holds supreme spiritual power. The age of hierarchy for its own sake is over. The new order is submission to the Spirit — alignment with the heart of Christ.

Jesus said: “The greatest among you will be your servant.” (Matthew 23:11) Authority is not measured by control but by the weight of love, the clarity of truth, and the depth of obedience.

The Marketplace of Spiritual Gifts

The Holy Spirit gives authority to people for specific roles, and the purpose is to glorify God, not self.

But the NAR teaches that “gifts” are accessible for a price.

Many ministries tied to this movement charge hundreds of dollars for “prophetic schools,” “activation workshops,” or “impartation conferences.” Some even have “certification programs” that teach you must pay to be recognized as a prophet or apostle within their networks.

Advanced “prophetic mentorships” can cost $1,000 or more, depending on how anointed you want to appear. Some teach that you can only receive a prophetic mantle by paying to have hands laid on you.

They reference Acts 8:17, but they skip Acts 8:20: “But Peter said to him, 'May your money perish with you, because you thought you could buy the gift of God with money.'”

It could not be more clear. You cannot pay to become a prophet. You cannot train yourself to be one. You cannot buy an anointing.

Anointing is a calling from God. It is given, never sold.

“Freely you have received; freely give.” (Matthew 10:8)

The NAR “prophet industry” is dangerous because it turns spiritual gifts into a product. It exalts man’s ambition over God’s appointment. It mimics Simon the Sorcerer, who tried to buy the power of the Holy Spirit and was rebuked.

We must return to Christ. To servanthood. To truth. To holiness.

Not self-exaltation. Not spiritual capitalism. Not man-centered theology.

The greatest authority looks like service.

You Were Never Meant to Carry It

---

There are weights we were never meant to carry.

Shame. Fear. Guilt. Regret. Hate.

They cling like vines around the heart, whispering that we must hold them tighter — that somehow carrying them makes us good, makes us careful, makes us worthy.

But the truth is gentler than the world has taught:

You were never meant to hold what breaks you from within.

Joy does not compete for space in a crowded heart. It waits — tender, patient, luminous — for you to set down the burdens you were never asked to bear.

There is no shame so heavy that grace cannot lift it. No regret so tangled that it cannot be undone by mercy. No fear so deep that love cannot reach it.

You are not called to be a vault for your sorrows. You are called to be a vessel of living light.

There is room for joy, but only when the hands unclench, only when the heart releases, only when the soul dares to believe that healing is not selfish — it is sacred.

Lay it down. All of it. Not because you must forget, but because you were never meant to be imprisoned by the past.

There is more ahead than you have left behind.

And joy — real joy — is not waiting on the horizon. It is waiting inside you, where the empty spaces finally breathe again.

Companion Whisper

May you find the courage to open your hands. May you find the grace to leave behind what was never yours to carry. May you find that joy was never far — only waiting for you to make room.
