Deep Waters is about understanding and how to apply what's in the Bible. We need the absolute revelation, not interpretation, of God's written voice. Bible and ministry ignorance is one of the greatest plagues we are facing today, (also known as the Laodicean Church age) and I have the most earnest desire to eradicate this plague from our earthly church today. If you want entry level Bible teaching, or no teaching at all then you can attend your local church, but if you want to get to know God, yes really get to know Him intimately then stay tuned into this podcast and get ready to cast off your arm floaties. No, not all churches are missing it, but in saying this, I challenge you to find one that operates as them ol' preacher boys did in the book of Acts. This ministry isn't trying to get the attention of our Lord Jesus by being the biggest most glamorous, most relevant for today's culture church the heavenly host has ever cast their eyes upon. We are after the one's that know that they know, that they know, there has to be more than what most churches are chatting about in these times. And where, by God, is the power that is to accompany the preachers preach? Christian peeps it is time to pluck our Christian heads out of the sands of inefficiencies and ineffectiveness and join our Lord in the battle on the surface of this earth. The Podcast Preacher challenges you to get lit for God and to listen to these messages and remain the same as you are when you first tuned in. This will be impossible if you are bent on your God obligated Christian activities and calling. Video's and books will come in there time but for now I guarantee you will not remain as you are if you engage in these messages. The Podcast Preacher is called, appointed, and anointed to help you grow. I have been given the gift of Teacher and it is flowing in and pouring out to all who can hear and see what the Lord is doing these days.  A final word to the wise: you will hear things that you will not hear in more than 95% of today’s churches, and that is fine, that is why God is always using the uncommon man to move His church forward. Each of the more than 470 messages is fully supported by scripture so that you can do your own research and look into these things that God is saying during these no doubt end times. This is not an end times ministry, it is teaching, a getting to know God intimately ministry. It is a ministry of encouragement and of accelerated spiritual growth. The only promise that we can make is if you, yes it is, if you hear and do what is in these messages then normal goes out the window. This is Bible confirmed and backed by the good fruit of this ministry.  1 Cor 3:1-3 - 3 And I, brethren, could not speak to you as to spiritual people but as to carnal, as to babes in Christ. 2 I fed you with milk and not with solid food; for until now you were not able to receive it, and even now you are still not able; 3 for you are still carnal. For where there are envy, strife, and divisions among you, are you not carnal and behaving like mere men?  Much love - your Podcast Preacher

    Embracing Demons

    Send us Fan Mail Embracing demons especially in these end times happens automatically when you reject Jesus Christ as God or God the Father, which by the way are one and the same thing. Do I have a scripture to support such a claim? John 14:7 - 7 “If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also; and from now on you know Him and have seen Him.” John 14:9 - 9 Jesus said to him, “Have I been with you so long, and yet you have not known Me, Philip? He who has seen Me has seen the Father; so how can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? John 10:30 - 30 I and My Father are one.” Mark 9:40 - 0 For he who is not against us is on our side. Luke 11:23 - 23 He who is not with Me is against Me, and he who does not gather with Me scatters. Oh now you might be asking me why present such elementary information to my awesomely mature listeners? And I would say that the proof that we are not all paying attention is listed in the bible as well as it stating that it will get worse meaning that we will begin to lose the marginalizers. What? Yes, we have actually already begun loosing those who are playing religion and solely depending on their church to represent all that they believe about the bible, that they themselves cannot possibly be reading, otherwise this falling away would not and could not be happening.  Now this could be a book of a message but what I will do is limit the message to the very current events that are right now being set up to poison the minds of the unaware or those who are not looking. My last message discusses in depth why we should be actively studying the subject of eschatology, that is the study of the end times of which we are right now in. The title of that message is “If We Don’t Know When He Is Returning Reasonably Speaking Why Watch” posted July 8th 2026. Before I infinitely break down the 2 Thess 2:1-11 scripture later in this message, allow me to be redundant and explain just a bit about what people group will be deceived. I say this because after we go through the scripturally list (we have been through it before in other messages) you will think that you are in the clear as you do not fit the definition of any of those people or religious groups at all what so ever. So besides this initial list there are others who like us think that we are in the clear regarding these end time deceptions. That group we will address later in the message. https://appliedstrengthsministry.org/

    If We Don’t Know When He Is Returning Reasonably Speaking Why Watch

    Send us Fan Mail So, I was reading a book titled, “Summoning The Demon – AI, Aliens, & The Antichrist written by Alan Didio and came across this obscure section which talked about how we are to watch for the return of Jesus. I thought perhaps having already done messages on this subject, specifically addressing the scripture, that I should touch on it again: Matthew 24:36 - 36 “But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, but My Father only. I didn’t buy the book for this reason as I already agree with the position of watching. And but I also believe that this statement is a Jewish idiom which is defined as: A Jewish idiom is a figurative phrase rooted in Jewish culture, religion, or language. They often originate from ancient Biblical Hebrew, the Aramaic of the Talmud, or Yiddish. These expressions rely on cultural context and rarely make sense if translated literally into English. I thought to look up just how many idioms there are in the bible so that we understand that it is very common to use them: There is no official or single number for how many Jewish and Hebraic idioms are in the Bible. Biblical scholars estimate there are thousands of idioms and Hebraisms woven throughout both the Old and New Testaments. Because idioms rely on cultural and linguistic nuances, literal translations often miss their true meanings.  Understanding these idioms requires looking at the Hebraic background of the texts. Some of the most common and widely recognized biblical idioms and phrases include: "By the skin of one's teeth" (Job 19:20): Means surviving or escaping a disaster with nothing to spare."Apple of one's eye" (Psalm 17:8): Refers to something incredibly cherished or protected."Gird up your loins" (2 Kings 4:29): Means preparing for action or getting ready for a difficult journey."A drop in the bucket" (Isaiah 40:15): Represents a very small, insignificant amount.https://appliedstrengthsministry.org/

  3. Beware The Coming Counterfeit Has Arrived To Deceive If Possible Even The Elect

    Beware The Coming Counterfeit Has Arrived To Deceive If Possible Even The Elect

    Send us Fan Mail We could call this message the great apostasy or falling away, the great deception, or how to avoid departing from your Christianity, or as the song lyric goes, "I'm losing my religion" by R.E.M. yes, once you listen to that song you will never forget it. It is sort of deep and haunting at the same time. How ever it happens it is a very real possibility that we too can lose our religion and it is right in these days that Satan is making his play that this would happen.  Removing your religion brings him great satisfaction and he will move heaven and earth to do it.  So how can we avoid the inevitable. Ah we should define inevitable so you understand what I am saying otherwise you can stiffen up and shout not me no way no how, maybe it will be the other guy but not me definitely not! Look up the following scriptures and see if you stand a better chance than Peter did who walked with God as an eyewitness (Matthew 26:33-35, 69-75 Mark 14:29-31, 66-72, Luke 22:33-34, 54-62, John 13:37-38, 18:15-27, and Luke 22:31-32). Luke 22:31-32 is included because Jesus knew Peter better than Peter knew himself and so Jesus released satan on his life to deal with Peters pride and we know it worked. Ok so that scripture definitely places all of us in a category whereby we can possibly be deceived and then deny Christ. Oh I know right. I am right now at 1145pm typing up this message as I had already gone to bed hours earlier, but this message disturbed me wide awake and I could do nothing else but get it out of my head. So how do we distinguish a Counterfeit dollar from the real deal? Study the real so much that when the false shows up you are able to right away distinguish it as the Counterfeit that it is. How can you tell if you are in the market to buy a classic car or supercar for my car guys and gals, if the product that you are looking at is authentic or a Counterfeit? You must know every detail of the original to be able to distinguish it from a fake. Oh and there are many fakes out there so it's truly like a real thing. https://appliedstrengthsministry.org/

  4. Why Some Mountains Were Meant for You To Climb While Others Were Meant To Be Cast Into The Sea

    Why Some Mountains Were Meant for You To Climb While Others Were Meant To Be Cast Into The Sea

    Send us Fan Mail This is a message that started out as a dream and as I began to walk through it in my mind I knew that I had to get up and document the key elements of it before I lost it in slumberland. It kind of started as I was focusing on some of the health issues that I have been going through and that it would be nice that God would have healed me as He had done so many other times before. But then, I believe He started to show me where the real value of my relationship is with Him through this mountain parable that He gave us in the bible and the one He gave me in this dream.   As always the download was huge and I couldn't sleep anymore but I knew in my spirit which doesn’t sleep, that it was Him teaching me something that is enormously valuable to my understanding of just how wonderful our relationship could be with God if we just focused on the initial sacrifice He made for us so that we could enter into a deep relationship with the Father in spite of being sick, having a disease, struggling through finances or whatever it is that represents our difficulties in life. My musing ended with a mountain top experience which gave me a new perspective on casting mountains into the sea. I now understand that some mountains we come across in life are meant to be climbed while others are meant to be cast into the sea. I saw that the journey of climbing them and that the value that is wrapped up in the climb and not so much as reaching the summit. Perhaps this is why they are wider at the base which can represent the start of the climb and much narrower at the top which could represent the finishing of whatever we are processing through. More on that in a minute. So, the analogy that God showed me was like when we were kids and we looked forward to Holidays like Christmas, Easter, and our birthday events. Ah, when we were kids those events seem to have excited us to know end. Oh the joy of receiving a birthday gift that we've always wanted, or Christmas gifts that were on our list, or an Easter basket full of delectable sweets. We would be excited for weeks and even months depending on the gift or treat. https://appliedstrengthsministry.org/

    VISCOSITY - Insuring You Are Correctly Anointed And Appointed For Your Specific Ministry

    Send us Fan Mail So, what does viscosity mean? And all of my cars guys shoot up their hands but for the rest of us and even for the car guys we are not just talking about the chemical make-up of car oil but relating how the different blends apply to different seasons and types of cars, or more specifically to types of engines. If you have a high revving engine built for performance then the oil thickness and make-up will be different than for a car, like a Pinto or Honda, and even different based on climate or season. Oil for cars in Alaska in the wintertime will basically be a viscosity quite different than if you live in Death Valley. Using the same oil for both places will get you and your car in trouble. And to add to the mix we also have synthetic oils which is basically man-made oil in which all cars do not do well with this type of oil which I learned the hard way. Ok so let’s break down five of the oil viscosities so that I can then move from this analogy to what this message is about. Oil viscosity measures a lubricant's resistance to flow. In multigrade motor oils, the first number (ending in "W" for Winter) indicates the cold-temperature flow, and the second number represents the high-temperature thickness.  Five common motor oil viscosities and their typical uses include: 0W-20: An ultra-thin, low-viscosity oil primarily used in modern, fuel-efficient, and hybrid engines to reduce friction and improve gas mileage. 0W-30: A low-viscosity formula optimized for colder climates, allowing for quick engine flow during winter starts while providing excellent protection at higher temperatures. 5W-20: A common, slightly thicker oil widely used in many smaller, modern passenger cars to balance fuel efficiency with engine component protection.5W-30: One of the most versatile and commonly used oils, frequently recommended for a wide range of standard passenger vehicles across various climate conditions. 10W-40: A thicker, higher-viscosity oil historically favored for warmer climates, older vehicles, and higher-load conditions, providing a stronger lubricating film at high operating temperatures.So we can see that your engine or car has a specific type of oil recommended based on the year, make and model along with if the engine has been modified or not. And well if you have modified your engine then you would automatically know what type of oil to run to give it the maximum protection. https://appliedstrengthsministry.org/

    Speaking In A Heavenly Language

    Send us Fan Mail Ok so as I have stated in the past, Christians should be able to talk about anything with other Christians who have open ears, heart, and eyes, without getting offended at all. Yes, it is a perfection of Christian behavior not seen so much but it is the mark that the bible sets for us spiritually related kinfolk. Let’s get on with the bite: Pro 1:7 - The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, But fools despise wisdom and instruction. Ok I hear you, you want to know what despise really means: To despise is to feel a strong sense of contempt, disgust, or disdain toward someone or something, viewing them as beneath respect or completely worthless. It is an intense emotion that often goes beyond simple hatred, typically involving strong moral disapproval. For example: "She despised the way he treated others." Key Characteristics Moral Condemnation: It usually involves judging someone as morally deficient or vile.Intense Dislike: It combines disgust with a very low opinion of a person or object's worth.Rejection: It frequently leads to feelings of loathing or the urge to completely dismiss and avoid the subject. Common Synonyms Loathe: To feel intense disgust or abhorrence.Scorn: To look down upon as unworthy or beneath notice.Detest: To dislike intensely.Disdain: To refuse or reject due to a feeling of superiority.So when you despise wisdom and instruction, that is a doctrine or teaching from one called to teach, then you meet the definition of that scripture which states, “fools despise wisdom and instruction.” So if tongues can be supported as being necessary and a gift from God and you reject it you are foolish. End of the story. https://appliedstrengthsministry.org/

  7. Four Things Neh Five That Should In These Revelatory Days No Longer Be Misunderstood In The Church Body Today Part 2 of 2

    Four Things Neh Five That Should In These Revelatory Days No Longer Be Misunderstood In The Church Body Today Part 2 of 2

    Send us Fan Mail In this message we were going to cover the final two of the five topics we should pretty much be in agreement with based on the ever-straight bible narrative. The first three were: 1.     The Holy Spirit Necessary Presence In Your Life 2.     The Rapture –  3.     The End Times –   This message was to cover the church purpose and tongues.  Now since the original church purpose message was over 115 pages, I thought it would be a significant enough of a challenge for me to cut it down to just 20 pages which equates to about one podcast message. If I also included the tongues message then I would have had to cut it down to just 10 pages and that would be near impossible considering how I like to yack on about these subjects. So, this message will cover The Purpose Of The Church, and the Speaking In A Heavenly Language, the tongues message, will be a separate stand-alone message.   The Purpose Of The Church – A message originally posted in 28 separate podcast messages beginning on July 20, 2022 and ending July 27, 2022. It will also be one of the first books this ministry releases later in 2026/27. Why you ask? Because we can do better as a church and but I feel this is only possible if we follow the bible model when it comes to doing the church thing the bible way so that we can get bible results.   In this message we will establish that the Church is not for the make-believers, fake-believers, non-believers, those stuck in the valley of indecision, false christs, false apostles, false prophets, wolves in sheeps clothing, or false teachers. It is only for those being saved and those who by a curious nature stopped by and got or are getting saved in the process.  The primary purpose of the church is to equip the saints for the work of ministry, to make disciples, that is life learners, and to send them out in Ministry. Rinse and repeat turning the whole world upside down with the most effective kingdom results we ever could can. Yes we should worship God, collect tithes and offerings, and even do communion as a body of believers, but in addition to these type of things it should be our absolute primary objective to equip the saints for the work of ministry and to make life learners of all who commit to joining us for the ride.   Now if you’re tired of I can’t get my appetite satisfied through my church experience, including watching others do ministry, but yet, you do not even know what you’re going to be when you grow up, then enter through the narrow gate...and keep this in mind, I think Jesus stated the gate was narrow and even made narrow originally because of the condition of our minds and the difficulty we find as humans to change or to be challenged on a point we were sure would never be challenged: Luke 13:23-25 - 23 Then one said to Him, “Lord, are there few who are saved?” And He said to them, 24 “Strive to enter through the narrow gate, for many, I say to you, will seek to enter and will not be able. 25 When once the Master of the house has risen up and shut the door, and you begin to stand outside and knock at the door, saying, ‘Lord, Lord, open for us,’ and He will answer and say to you, ‘I do not know you, where you are from,’ Matthew 7:13-14 - 13 “Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. 14 Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it. https://appliedstrengthsministry.org/

    Four Things Neh Five That Should In These Revelatory Days No Longer Be Misunderstood In The Church Body Today Part 1 of 2

    Send us Fan Mail So, I thought just maybe we could clean up on some things or topics that should in these days be non-issues within the body of christ. Are they salvation issues? I am not sure as I think the lack of some of these things could lead a person to fall away at a minimum which could then make it a salvation issue. And but is that really the position we want to take when it comes to learning and understanding the bible and the Lord of the bible. For me personally no. I want to know everything I can about God and learn how to receive everything He intended me to receive so that I can be the most effective Christian He intended me to be.   It’s simple math really. If you are a Christian who adamantly seeks to do the works of Jesus and greater works in faith then this message will encourage you and help you in any area that you might need more understanding in. But if you are a Christian who clutches your salvation ticket in your hands hoping that Jesus simply returns before you die having no intention of doing anything for Him then you are a risk. For what? For these end time deceptions which are being prepared right before our eyes. But even worse what crown will you be casting at the feet of Jesus (Rev 4:10-11)? What works will you have that will endure His judgement?   1 Cor 3:12-15 - 12 Now if anyone builds on this foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw, 13 each one’s work will become clear; for the Day will declare it, because it will be revealed by fire; and the fire will test each one’s work, of what sort it is. 14 If anyone’s work which he has built on it endures, he will receive a reward. 15 If anyone’s work is burned, he will suffer loss; but he himself will be saved, yet so as through fire.  You see where this is going? You were doing things before your salvation and but after your salvation as you grow and mature you do the kingdom things that make an eternal difference. You no longer waste your time in fetching any and all of the worlds goods anymore:  1 John 2:15-17 - 15 Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 16 For all that is in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—is not of the Father but is of the world. 17 And the world is passing away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides forever.  James 4:4 - 4 Adulterers and adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.  Additionally, Matthew 6:24: Teaches that "No one can serve two masters". You cannot fully devote yourself to God while simultaneously loving material wealth (money/possessions). And 2 Timothy 3:4: Warns of the "last days" when people will become "lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God".  https://appliedstrengthsministry.org/
