Overcoming the Fear of Man With God’s Truth

In this video, Chris walks through how the fear of man can become stronger than trust in God’s thoughts. This conversation is for believers who struggle with anxiety, people-pleasing, scarcity, or fear that their value depends on what others think.

• God already knows what we feel, so honest emotion before Him is part of healing.

• Chris shares how disarming the lie “I am weak and powerless” helped him face conflict with more peace.

• Frankie names fears around provision, client approval, family stress, and identity.

• The conversation exposes the lie that people’s opinions matter more than God’s opinion.

• Liz shares a provision testimony and receives encouragement to pray with simple faith.

Chris: When we are experiencing emotion, we need to come to the reckoning that God certainly loves us. When we are not telling the truth to God, or when we are trying to hide ourselves or hide how we actually feel, God already knows how we feel anyway. So we might as well be honest and tell the truth about what is going on.

It is okay to be emotional, and it is okay to experience your humanity.

Another thing I usually like to share is this. You probably know by now that I am very active in ministry. I work with Protestants, Baptists, non-denominational believers, and people from many different faith walks. When non-Catholics want to argue about Mary, there are a couple of things I usually say.

The first is this: do not fear. You are never going to love Mary more than Jesus loves her. If Jesus loves Mary, then it is probably okay for us to love Mary too.

The second thing is where Jesus says on the cross, “Son, take your mother. Mother, take your son.” In most Marian consecrations, that is the key verse for why we consecrate ourselves to Mary. Jesus, on the cross, gives us this blessed grace to receive the mother of God into our homes and into our hearts.

The last thing I say, which I think helps many of our non-denominational brothers and sisters in Christ, is this. I usually ask them, especially if we are meeting at a conference, “Why are we here?”

They will usually say, “We are here to see Randy Clark,” or “We are here to see Todd White,” or another person who has gained great victories in God.

Because they pressed into God and experienced more of Him, we want to enjoy the fruit of their victories in the Lord. They walked through fires to receive the wisdom and revelation they have received from God, and we want those graces flowing in our lives.

That is exactly right.

In the same way, imagine that these people die. Just because they die, that does not mean we do not still want a relationship with them through the books they have written and the wisdom they have imparted. That is the same thing we have with the saints. Even though Mary has transitioned, that does not mean we do not want a relationship. This goes along with all the saints. We do not pray to them. We come alongside them and pray alongside the saints. As we pray alongside them, we can receive added intercessory prayer.

Liz, I think it boils down to this. The people who make you feel like you are worshiping an idol because you have Marian devotion are likely just confused, and that is okay. We are all coming into the revelation of God the Father. I would encourage you, sister, not to allow them to steal your peace or stop you from continuing to pursue our blessed Lord through the intercession of His dear mother.

I hope that helps, Liz.

Liz: Yes. Thank you.

Chris: I saw that Frankie joined us, and we have Liz and Moenda. Moenda, it sounds like you have some background noise going on. I appreciate you working through that. If you can join from a quieter place, that would help.

My dear brothers and sisters in Christ, we are diving into today’s meeting of Disarming Lies of the Enemy. Our agenda is to share some testimonies, pray, disarm lies for roughly three people, talk about announcements, and then close in prayer.

Liz or Frankie, I do not know if either of you has a testimony to share about the impact of Disarming Lies of the Enemy.

What I would share, my dear brothers and sisters in Christ, is this. There were two different boys I knew when I was eight or nine years old. One was a year older than me, and the other was two years older than me. Both of them took butcher knives while I was playing at their houses and chased me through the house.

In one case, I locked myself in a closet. In the other, I climbed to the top of a tree fort. The wood broke while I was holding onto the spike at the top. I fell down, hit my head on a wooden swing, and had such a bad concussion that I blacked out. My first memory after the event was waking up in my mother’s bed. I had no idea who I was, what day it was, where I was, or anything at all. It was a pretty severe concussion.

When I was meditating on each of my organs, the Lord brought something to me. We know that when a person receives a heart transplant or organ transplant, there are often memories that people report receiving from the person whose organ they received. That tells us two things. First, sin can pass down from generation to generation. Second, our minds are not the only place where memories are stored in the body.

That is why it is so important, through meditation, to scan our bodies and see if any traumatic experiences are unlocking while we meditate.

I was meditating on my heart area when I saw these two examples of boys chasing me with knives. This actually happened to me. It was not a fictitious dream. These two boys were threatening to stab me and kill me. They were obviously demonically triggered, with Satan trying to steal, kill, and destroy my life at an early age.

When I was 40 years old and meditating on this, the Holy Spirit brought these examples to my mind. I asked, “God, what is the lie I am believing? Through the trauma, was there a lie I spoke over myself that we need to heal and disarm?”

The Lord spoke to me and said, “The lie is that you are weak and powerless.”

So I took it through the steps, which I picked up from Bear Creek Ranch. Praise God for that.

One thing I noticed afterward was that whenever people were arguing with me or raising their voices, I would usually shut down. I would feel uncomfortable communicating with frazzled people.

After I started to disarm this lie, I became much more comfortable reasoning in the midst of people being illogical and emotional. That has been a blessing and a grace.

As a leader of ministry and businesses, you cannot avoid conflict management. It is part of the day job. As a CEO of a consultancy, there is not a day that goes by where I do not have to handle conflict management.

It is incredibly important to walk in the confidence, grace, and love that God has for us. When we feel weak and powerless, that stops our ability to grow in leadership and to see conflict management as a way of loving people and helping them become the best version of themselves.

Instead of running from conflict, we run to it as leaders.

That was something I felt the Lord wanted me to share as a testimony from my own life. Disarming the lie that I am weak and powerless has helped me grow as a man of God and a leader.

Praise God for that. Thank You, Jesus. We love You, Lord.

Frankie, Mark, and Liz, if any of you want to share where you have maybe been the worst version of yourself over the last couple of weeks, I would be happy to pray into that. We can see if there are any lies attached to what is going on and help you disarm those so you can continue to grow in your relationship with God.

Frankie: Thanks, Chris. Can you hear me?

Chris: I can. Frankie, do you want me to bring you up on screen, or do you want to stay in the background?

Frankie: Whatever you like. I can see myself right now.

Chris: Frankie, we are streaming, so I just want to give you that heads-up.

Frankie: Cool.

Chris: I like glorifying in my sin. I do not mean, “Yes, I am a sinner, praise God.” I mean I love being able to share the sins I am overcoming in this season. When I share those with other people, they understand that I am human and mortal. Then they can feel comfortable recognizing that we are all struggling with something. Sainthood is not something where you arrive one day and then you are there. It is a perpetual journey.

If you are suffering with mortal sin and that is what we have to talk about today, you might want to be off camera. If it is a venial sin, sometimes it is easier to share those. I just wanted to offer that so you understand that we are streaming. I do not want to put anyone in a position where they are in a live meeting and have to show who they are if they want anonymity.

That being said, Frankie, do you want me to spotlight you?

Frankie: Whatever works. You can spotlight me. I can see everyone’s screen from my view.

Chris: There he is. Now that I have spotlighted you, you and I are what people are seeing in the stream.

Frankie: Sweet. What’s up, everybody?

Chris: By the way, cool hat. What does that say?

Frankie: It is for Run With Christ DC.

Chris: I love that.

Frankie: They flipped it. It gets a lot of people, especially the older generations. Thanks for doing this, Chris.

Chris: I wanted to let you know that the CEO resigned from his job, so he is not going to be able to bring us into his hospital in Washington, DC, to pray for his sick patients. But he did say he has a lot of brothers in Christ who also run hospitals. He is waiting for us to finish the rebrand of our website. Once we are done with that, I am going to send him a one-pager on what we are trying to do, and then he is going to connect me with those various CEOs so we can go into these hospitals and pray for the sick. I will keep you posted on how that keeps building.

Frankie: That is wild. That is so cool.

Chris: Thank you for your courage and boldness in pushing through with all this.

Frankie: No worries, bro.

Chris: Your lighting looks nice.

Guys, Frankie is a videographer and photographer. If anyone thinks I know what I am doing with my background imagery, it is not me. This is the man. He set it up. If you want to set up a sweet background and have someone guide you on the right type of camera technology, this is the man. DM him and reach out to him.

Frankie, for anyone streaming or watching, how can people get hold of you to procure your services?

Frankie: They can go through my agent, Christopher. More seriously, Frankie at Calorama Studios. I just dropped it in the chat. Or caloramastudios.com. I am always happy to chat about creative work.

Chris: Praise God. Frankie at caloramastudios.com?

Frankie: Yes, sir.

Chris: Which means beautiful view in Greek.

Frankie: Yes.

Chris: Okay, bro. Where have you been the worst version of yourself lately, so we can disarm lies of the enemy?

Frankie: What immediately came to mind was a couple of hours ago. I got an email from a client. I thought we were going to go with a really big package, but they decided to go with a smaller package. For some reason, I started spiraling into fear and anxiety.

At the same time, someone on my wife’s side of the family is missing. I am seeing all this fear trying to take root in me and my mindset for the day. It is distracting me and sending me spinning.

The lie behind that is that I am taking on a scarcity mindset. I am also taking on fear that the Lord will not provide.

I started randomly saying, “The Lord is my shepherd. There is nothing I shall want.” Then I was saying the valley of death verse: “Though I walk through the valley of death, I shall fear no evil.”

I kept saying that. It did not even seem directly relevant to the fear, but I kept saying it. Then the fear and anxiety lifted. I was able to walk in freedom away from it.

There was this partnership with fear, but declaring Scripture over myself brought freedom from that lie.

Chris: Let me summarize what you said and break it into chunks.

The first is: I feel like my finances are not going to work out, so I feel like I am not provided for. The root lie under that is this: if you feel like you are not provided for, then what would that say about God? If it were true that He is literally not going to provide for you and things are going to fall apart, what would that say about God?

Frankie: That He is not a good Father and that He is not a provider.

Chris: Yes. The pathway is: God will not provide for me because, underneath that, He is not good.

If He is not good, then of course He is not going to provide for me. That lie leads you to being triggered, tailspinning, and feeling like things are not going to work out.

But you gave a great testimony. You said, “No, I am not going to keep allowing this lie to trigger me into the worst version of myself. Instead, I am going to pause and either ask the Holy Spirit or choose a Scripture I already know that runs counter to it. Then I am going to sit with it until that thing is dismantled, and I can keep moving forward as a beloved son of the Most High God.”

Frankie: Agreed. Thank you.

Chris: That is awesome.

This is also a testimony. Frankie has a deep prayer life. He went to our sister and brother ministry, Bear Creek Ranch, for the original deliverance in 2022.

Frankie: Yes.

Chris: He has been walking post-prophetic deliverance for four years now. I hope that is a testimony to the importance of this. When you get delivered from the strongman demon, that is part of the work. The other part is continually pursuing our Lord and His truth instead of walking in the lies of the enemy that try to steal, kill, and destroy our lives.

Praise God for that.

Is there anything else you wanted to hit on, brother?

Frankie: Not yet.

Chris: Can I take you deeper into the lie?

Frankie: Let’s do it. Take me wherever you want.

Chris: Let’s go to Genesis, where Adam and Eve are told by Satan that eating from the tree and the apple will allow them to be like God.

Then it says Adam and Eve put on fig leaves. When you look at the root of fig leaves, it means to go up to be like God.

In my experience, when we are wearing these masks, it has us going up to try to play God in our lives. This can go even to the root level of our personality types. It is not just about fear states we live in. It can go to the way we show up in life.

For me, my primary driver is having fun in life. My other driver is getting things done. But when I go up and put on my fig leaves, or when I wear the mask, I become more performance-driven. My lie structure is, “I feel like a failure.” Then it becomes, “God, You are a failure.” If God is a failure and He is not going to get things done for me, then I say, “Get out of my way. I am going to do it myself.”

That kicks me into a loop where I am doing and doing and doing. Then I have to repent and ask God to help me live into my primary motivation, which is fun and enjoying life, instead of always feeling this overburdened sense of responsibility to do everything on my own.

Jesus says His yoke is easy and His burden is light. But if I am living in this secondary state, where I am living by performance and getting things done instead of living by fun, then Jesus’ yoke feels heavy and the burden feels hard. Then I am worn out.

As I speak about this, can you see any places where this lie that God is evil shows up? What are some secondary traits that become primary? What is your go-to way of coping with suffering instead of staying connected to God, allowing God to flow, and flowing with the Holy Spirit?

Frankie: The two things that happen are that I try to muscle through it, and I start swirling in my head. I keep continuing these thoughts about whatever I am in.

Today, I had enough sensibility to stop what I was doing. I said, “I am not going to grind through this. I am going to switch into a different context and pray.”

Usually, I am in this loop. I have also noticed that I start to get dizzy. I have been getting dizzy recently over the past five days. Then I give in to fear and lies.

Chris: Are you saying it is more like paralysis by analysis? Or is it similar to what I shared, where you feel like a chicken with its head cut off, running around doing all this stuff instead of allowing God to move? Is it more analysis, or is it performance?

Frankie: Both. It is kind of both. Maybe both at the same time, if that makes sense. Historically, both have been present.

One more thing came to mind. I have some projects I am working on with clients who are very fearful of the project. I have noticed that I have taken on their fear. I can feel their fear. Even when I am not interacting with them, I feel that fear. I have found myself partnering with it.

That is the context of this situation. When I operate in that, and then this lie comes in, it feels like everything is shaking. The underlying fear of what people will think of me and my work leads to everything else being shaky. I think that is one of the foundational underlying lies in this example.

Chris: Let’s dive into that. What are they going to think about you, Frankie?

Frankie: That I am terrible at work, or that my company is terrible. That I will fail my clients, they will not think I am good, and because of that, I am not good. Then I will not be able to provide. It all comes back to identity.

People’s opinions define my identity.

Chris: How does the fear of man relate to God, then?

Frankie: I would say it is an idol.

Chris: Meaning that the way you think about what people think of you is more heavily weighted than what God thinks about you.

Frankie: Yes.

Chris: So the lie would be that man’s thoughts are higher than God’s thoughts.

Frankie: Yes. Write it down.

Chris: We can do the five wholeness steps on this afterward before we move over to Liz.

Liz, thank you for being patient.

The bad news is that, in your heart, you have prioritized what people think about you more than what God thinks about you. The follow-up question is: why?

Frankie: Looking at probably my whole life, I have derived my value from other people’s praise or affirmation. I derive my value from man.

Chris: Can I give you an analogy that might help you see what I am seeing?

Frankie: Sure.

Chris: Imagine a little kid running a lemonade stand.

One day, while he and his father are running the lemonade stand, the owner of the largest lemonade provider of all time stops by. He sees this kid and says, “I am so encouraged by your son. I want to mentor him.”

The father and son say, “That would be amazing. You want to mentor my son on how to be more effective in lemonade sales? That would be sweet.”

So the mentor starts helping him, and the kid starts to grow. But then his friends come around and start bullying him. They say, “Do not do that. You are stupid. Why would you follow this guy? You should do things this way instead.”

So the kid starts following the other kids, and the growth he was enjoying begins to diminish.

My question is this: what do you think is happening with that kid? Why is he choosing the friends over the mentor? What might he be believing about the mentor that stops him from continuing to listen and follow?

Frankie: It sounds like he is valuing the opinion of his friends over everyone else.

Chris: You are talking about the character of the friends. Go back to the mentor. What is it about the mentor that the kid is not seeing?

Frankie: That the mentor has his best in mind.

Chris: Yes. It could be a couple of things. One, the kid may believe the mentor’s advice stinks. Two, he may believe the mentor’s character is flawed. Three, he may believe the mentor does not have his best interest at heart.

Whatever that root is, it keeps him from receiving the advice that is helping him grow.

In the analogy, you are the kid, God is the mentor, and the other kids represent the social network. When you run to the social network instead of running to God, and you prioritize them, it seems like one of those three things may be happening. You may see God as flawed. You may see an issue with His character. Or there may be a mix of those things that causes you to allow the fear of man to supplant the fear of God.

Is any of that hitting for you, brother?

Frankie: It is bringing back memories of how I was delivered in 2020. I was delivered from a lot of fear. I am remembering how significantly more crippled by fear I was back then. It was around the opinions of others.

It is not exactly the specific things you were saying. It is bringing back more memories that I had forgotten about.

Chris: Was the strongman specifically the demon of fear?

Frankie: The strongman was an Ahab spirit, actually. But this was a separate deliverance before Bear Creek.

Chris: So this was a separate deliverance ministry before Bear Creek Ranch, and they were seeing a lot of fear that you were walking in that needed to be treated.

With demonic spirits of fear, the response can look like OCD-like behavior. We feel like we have to pray this way, set up our business day this way, dress a certain way, and if we do all these things, we will not have to deal with the inherent fear going on.

Frankie: I would say there are definitely elements of that. Maybe not exactly as you described it, but for sure, OCD and anxiety are in there.

Chris: Thank You, God. Praise Your name, God. Thank You, Lord.

Let’s treat that first lie. Do you know Katie Mather’s five wholeness steps process off the top of your head, or do you want me to guide you through it?

Frankie: Guide me. It has been a minute.

Chris: No worries.

In the name of Jesus Christ, I confess the lie.

Frankie: In the name of Jesus Christ, I confess the lie.

Chris: That the fear of man is more important than the fear of God.

Frankie: That the fear of man is more important than the fear of God.

Chris: That people’s opinions are more impactful than Your opinions, Lord.

Frankie: That people’s opinions are more impactful than Your opinions, Lord.

Chris: And when I believe these lies, it breaks our relationship.

Frankie: And when I believe these lies, it breaks our relationship.

Chris: And for that, I am so sorry, God.

Frankie: And for that, I am so sorry, God.

Chris: In the name of Jesus Christ.

Frankie: In the name of Jesus Christ.

Chris: I bind up the lie.

Frankie: I bind up the lie.

Chris: That the fear of man is more important than the fear of God.

Frankie: That the fear of man is more important than the fear of God.

Chris: Holy Spirit, come into my heart.

Frankie: Holy Spirit, come into my heart.

Chris: And heal these places in my heart that have been believing these lies.

Frankie: And heal these places in my heart that have been believing these lies.

Chris: That man’s opinion is more important than God’s opinion.

Frankie: That man’s opinion is more important than God’s opinion.

Chris: Holy Spirit, what is truth?

Frankie: Holy Spirit, what is truth?

Chris: I have a Scripture coming to mind. I am getting Isaiah 55:9. I will use the New American Standard Bible.

“For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways and My thoughts than your thoughts.”

When you start to feel this fear, like, “I need to listen to what they have to say,” you can touch your mind and say, “God, Your thoughts are higher than my thoughts. You reign supreme. Your ways and Your thoughts are higher than my thoughts.”

Thank You, Jesus. Thank You, Lord. I have access to Your thoughts, God. As a new creation being, I can access the thoughts of God.

Thank You, Jesus. Thank You, Lord. Thank You for bringing revelation to Frankie right now. Show him, God, not just the pathway of least resistance, but the pathway to bring this client where they need to be.

Frankie, I was praying with Dan on one of these calls recently, and God showed me transportation technology. The Mathers always talk about the upside-down kingdom, where whatever the world’s wisdom is, God’s wisdom is usually the reverse.

In this world, the fastest way between two points is a straight line. But God showed me that the fastest way between two points is more like a pyramid. In Acts, Philip is transported from town to town. There are also different people who have bilocated and gone to other places. You could not get on an airplane or in a car and travel as fast as if God literally picked you up and relocated you.

What God was showing me is that if you go up in the spirit realm, He brings you to the next place. Even in documented history, that is the fastest way you could possibly get from point A to point B. But in this world, we think the fastest way is just a straight line.

In the same way, you may think the fastest way with your client work is to listen to the client and do everything they want, even if you feel it is not the right thing. But that may actually be the slower way.

The fastest way is to go up, and then God brings Frankie to point B.

That is what I am seeing in “My ways are higher than your ways, and My thoughts are higher than your thoughts.”

Thank You, God. Praise Your name, Lord Jesus Christ. We have access to Your thoughts. Thank You that You think those thoughts, because if it is up to us and up to AI, we are surely going to run ourselves into the ground.

Thank You, God, for calling Frankie, myself, and all business owners to make sure that in the midst of our client decisions as consultants, we spend time with You. Help us prioritize meditative prayer and bring our situations to You so You can bring us by the fastest way to where we need to be.

God, I speak and prophesy now in Jesus’ mighty holy name that as Frankie makes a devotion to meditative prayer for his clients, he is going to see revival break out among his clients. He is also going to become a man who is sought after for his work because people will know him as having the mind of Christ. They may not be able to put words to it, but they will ask, “How do you always know the pathway that brings the greatest fruit and breakthrough?”

That will become an opportunity for Frankie to testify to seeking the Lord in everything and seeking His thoughts that are higher than our thoughts.

I speak this all in Jesus’ mighty, holy name. Amen.

Frankie: Amen.

The image that came to mind for me was that I was at the beach. I saw God the Father with a surfboard. He was really big, like a giant. Then I was tiny and running with a surfboard on the beach. I do not know if I was running in the right direction, but eventually I saw myself going through the water and being okay with paddling out to these big waves splashing me around.

What came to mind was the fun aspect of having fun with it and returning to fun.

I was talking to one of my mentors years ago. We were talking about how we do our best work when we are just having fun and not partnering with fear.

Chris: I receive that too.

I printed a shirt that says, “I am not God. It is okay to have fun.” When I take off the fig leaves, I have so much more fun in this world than when I am constantly doing and striving.

If you were just looking at the waves and thinking about them crashing down on you, and thinking you might drown, it would suck away the fun of surfing.

So, brother, pop up on that board and enjoy the wind and the sun on your face. I encourage you to keep surfing.

That is a very tangible thing to think about when you start getting into that death loop and spiral. Take a second and say, “God, I want to remember that I am not trying to swim and not drown. I want to remember that You have taken me into this business for surfing, not for suffocating. You have called me out into the deep to surf and to walk on water with You.”

Praise Your name, God. Thank You, Jesus.

This gets back to thankfulness. Psalm 105:4 says we enter His gates with thanksgiving and His courts with praise. The more you say, “I am grateful for the surfing. I am grateful for the fun,” the more you stay connected to His heart. Then you do not fall into the waves like St. Peter and start to sink in fear. You remember He has given you the ability to walk on water.

Lord, I pray right now in Jesus’ mighty and holy name that You would bring Frankie into an acceleration of this. Accelerate his ability to surf. God, even in the next week, bring a mighty testimony. Make it clear that he is surfing, not just trying not to drown.

God, I pray that You would drop a mighty amount of cash into Frankie’s bank account so he would know that partnering with God is the safest and most fruitful place. The original curse of man was that we would work all the days of our lives and get thistles and weeds out of our labor. But the highest level of work is when we start to reap fruit from labors that are not even our own.

God, I pray that You would release supernatural abundance and provision for Frankie. Make it happen in the next week so he would know that You are calling him to surf, not to fight against the surf. You are calling him to pop up on the board, surf, and supernaturally enjoy the provision of heaven.

I speak this all in Jesus’ mighty and holy name. Amen.

Frankie: Amen. Let’s go.

Chris: Keep me posted on what happens.

Frankie: Thanks, Chris.

Chris: Love you, bro. Peace.

Liz, are you here?

Liz: Yes, I am here.

Chris: Thank You, Jesus. Thank You, Lord.

Liz, my dear sister, what is going on? Do you want to give a testimony about breaking down lies, or do you want to dive into something where you feel like you are still trying to work through the worst version of yourself and discern the lies about yourself or lies about God?

Liz: I have no idea. I do not know if this is a testimony or not, but Monday I thought I was short to pay off my credit cards. I transferred some money over. Today I checked, and my credit cards are in the negative. I cannot figure out how that happened except for a miracle, if that sounds weird.

Chris: Thank You, Lord.

Liz: I have been struggling with my finances.

Chris: That is crazy, because we just went deep into provision and feeling like God is not our provider, or that God does not want to provide for us.

Liz: Yes. I am wondering, “Am I imagining this?” I feel like I should have taken a screenshot because it almost does not feel real. When I saw the balance in the negative, nothing else explained it. Is that strange?

Chris: If you are looking at things only through the earthly, then maybe it sounds crazy. But the foundation of our faith is that Christ died and God raised Him from the dead. It was not just that Jesus was resurrected as a spirit. When He resurrected, people touched His body.

Imagine someone gets shot and dies, and then God resurrects her. She still has the wound, but she is perfectly living. That was Christ’s state before God ascended Him into heaven.

Just as Lazarus was raised from the dead, Jesus was raised from the dead by God. Then He said, “Go preach throughout all nations. These signs will follow those who believe. They will cast out demons. They will speak in new tongues. They will drink deadly poison and it will not affect them. They will pick up serpents. They will lay hands on the sick and they will recover.”

Then He said, “I have to go so you can be equipped by the Holy Spirit and preach My message throughout the world.”

That is the cornerstone of our faith. If the cornerstone of our faith is the resurrection of our Messiah from the dead, then something as simple as your credit card being paid off supernaturally is very easily a testimony.

I remember my dear friend Michael Sullivan once said that he was praying and asking God for provision or a miracle. He was walking through Walmart or somewhere like that, and when he turned around, there was a pile of money sitting in the store.

Liz: You are kidding.

Chris: No, I am serious. Provision from heaven manifested in the world like that.

I want to share a provision story. In 2023, I went on a mission trip to Brazil with an international healer. When I came back, in a matter of three months, God brought half a million dollars into my consulting company. I had never experienced that much provision.

Here is another testimony. Last year, my company gets paid revenue to fill positions. We filled one job and had the same amount of revenue we typically have year over year. We were doing less work and still receiving the same provision.

Provision miracles are certainly real.

Liz, can you do me a favor? Can you pray and release the same provision miracle you received onto everyone watching on social media? Pray that other people would encounter the supernatural provision of heaven.

Liz: I am not good at speaking publicly.

Chris: That is the perfect place where God needs you, because where you are weak, He is strong. It is simple. “In the name of Jesus Christ, I release the provision of heaven.”

Liz: In the name of Jesus Christ, I release the provision of heaven onto everyone in the world and on this call today.

Chris: Jesus said, “When two or more are gathered in My name, there I am in the midst of them.” Whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.

Right now, because we are in the spirit realm and you just released that, Liz, there will be provision encounters and provision testimonies that come forth from people watching this episode of Disarming Lies.

Thank you, Liz. Thank You, Jesus. Thank You, Lord.

Lord, I pray for more. Liz has already started to encounter heaven invading her life, specifically in her bank account. Lord, I pray for more provision, more angels from heaven on assignment, coming to fill her bank account and bless every area of her life.

God, it is not a testimony to walk around broke, angry, depressed, worthless, and fearful. That is not a testimony to the resurrected life or walking in the fullness of Christ.

I pray in Jesus’ mighty and holy name that angels would be sent from heaven to surround Liz in every area of her life. Let supernatural provision from heaven come more and more.

Lord, I pray that in Liz’s mind, You would show her that she can never outgive You in generosity. The more she gives away, the more she will receive. Illuminate her mind right now that she can never outgive You. Help her go out and bless people with her time, her talents, and her treasure. As she blesses people with her time, treasure, and talents, increase her impact in this world.

Thank You, Lord Jesus Christ. Praise Your name, God. We love You, Jesus.

Liz, I see you. I feel like the Lord is showing me a vision where you are walking your little puppy dogs. As you walk them, they are like your fishing pole. St. Peter used to be a fisherman before he became a fisher of men. I see your puppies like that.

You take your puppies out for a walk, and the leash is your fishing pole. People come up to you and say, “Oh my gosh, look at these sweet little pups. Can I pet them?”

You say, “Yes, no problem.” Then you start talking and building relationship. Then you say, “Do you have back pain? I feel like Jesus was showing me you have back pain. Can I pray for you?” They say yes. Then you say, “In the name of Jesus Christ, I command this back pain to leave right now in Jesus’ name.” Then they say, “Oh my gosh, my back feels amazing.”

Someone else is petting your dog and starts talking with you. You ask how things are going in their life. They say their mom is sick. You say, “Can we pray?” Then you pray, “In the name of Jesus Christ, I command whatever illness is affecting your mom to leave right now in Jesus’ mighty holy name.”

Your puppy dogs are a way for divine appointments to happen. That is what I mean when I say you cannot outdo God’s generosity. If you give away your time, talents, treasure, and even the joy of your dogs to other people, God can create divine appointments. In those divine appointments, He will let you minister to people.

Jesus said the kingdom of heaven is for the childlike. Do not overcomplicate it. The easiest way to get started is to pray in Jesus’ mighty and holy name.

If someone does not have finances, pray, “In Jesus’ mighty name, finances come.” If someone has back pain, pray, “In Jesus’ mighty name, back pain leave.” Do not overcomplicate it. The most important thing is to get started.

I pray right now for holy boldness and courage to rise upon everyone watching this episode, especially Liz. May the fire of God and the courage of heaven flow into her heart so she can share her heart for the gospel with people she encounters, even while walking her puppy dogs.

I pray this in Jesus’ mighty and holy name. Amen.

Liz, do you feel uplifted and encouraged?

Liz: I do. I want to share one verse. Isaiah 41:10, I think it is 10 through 13.

“Do not fear. I am with you. Do not fear. I am your God. I will strengthen you. I will help you. And I will uphold you with My victorious right hand of justice.”

Chris: Thank You, God. Thank You, Lord. Praise Your name, God. Can you read it one more time?

Liz: So, do not fear. I am with you. Do not fear because I am your God. I will strengthen you. I will protect you, and I will hold you with My victorious right hand of justice.

Chris: Thank You, Lord. Thank You, God.

On April 7 at 7:15 Central time, we are having a supernatural healing call. Our ministry is shifting from purely deliverance into deliverance, inner healing, and physical healing. If you have back pain, leg pain, or any pain, show up to that call. My dear friend and beloved brother in Christ, Mark, is going to pray for people who are physically sick.

You can access all this information through the QR code. It also gives you a place to tithe into our ministry if you feel blessed by our ministry.

To close in prayer, in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, amen.

I lift up all these prayers in Jesus’ mighty holy name. God, I pray covering over every person on this call, over their family members, businesses, ministries, and extended family. Let there be no acts of repercussion from the evil one over today’s prophetic ministry.

God, I thank You for my godson’s confirmation rehearsal tonight and his confirmation on Friday night. I pray in Jesus’ mighty holy name that the Holy Spirit would overshadow Danny and that he would experience the great love of God in Christ Jesus.

God, I pray for Liz, Frankie, Mark, and everyone who showed up for today’s call. I pray that there would be greater provision and breakthrough. May the heavens be open, and may breakthrough and provision come into each of our lives to keep growing us deeper and deeper.

In the mighty name of our blessed Lord, I pray. Amen.

Love you all, and I look forward to seeing you soon.
