    Get Your House in Order: Prepare for What God Is Birthing

    God may be preparing something new for your life, but are you preparing yourself to carry it? In this episode of The Morning Charge, Joshua Hommes shares a strong call to get your house in order. This is about more than cleaning your physical home or organizing your calendar. It is about examining your spiritual house, your mind, your atmosphere, your habits, your priorities, and the voices you have allowed to influence you. What are you listening to? What are you watching? What voices have been discipling your thinking? What has become normal in your home that God may now be asking you to remove? Joshua walks through Scripture to show that real preparation sometimes requires removal. King Josiah removed what did not belong. Joshua drew a line and declared, “As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.” Paul teaches us to be transformed by the renewing of our minds. Jesus warns that simply sweeping a house clean is not enough. What has been removed must be replaced with what belongs there. The challenge is not merely to clean things out. Fill the house with truth. Fill it with prayer. Fill it with worship. Fill it with peace. Fill your mind with the Word of God. If God is preparing you for another season, assignment, opportunity, or transition, do not wait until it arrives to begin preparing. Ask the Lord: What needs to go? What needs to be nurtured? What needs to be brought back into order? Get your mind in order. Get your atmosphere in order. Get your habits in order. Get your influences in order. Get your house in order and prepare for what God wants to do next. Send us a message Join The Morning Charge LIVE Monday-Friday at 7:30 AM CT on TikTok. Want to go deeper?

    Learn to Discern: When Darkness Becomes Normal

    Darkness does not always announce itself as darkness. Sometimes it looks empowering. Sometimes it sounds spiritual. Sometimes it appears harmless, entertaining, validating, or even compassionate. But underneath the surface, we still have to ask an important question: Does this lead me toward Jesus, truth, holiness, surrender, and freedom, or does it pull me away from Him? In Part 2 of the Witchcraft series, Joshua Hommes takes the biblical foundation from the previous episode and examines how the same patterns can show up in modern culture, relationships, families, entertainment, and church environments. This episode explores rebellion against God’s design, counterfeit spirituality, manipulation and control in relationships, emotional pressure, identity struggles, broken fatherhood, unhealthy spiritual leadership, personality worship, and the gradual normalization of darkness through entertainment and media. Joshua also emphasizes an important balance: not every disagreement, unhealthy relationship, difficult situation, or piece of entertainment should automatically be labeled witchcraft. We need discernment, biblical grounding, wisdom, and the leading of the Holy Spirit. What voices are shaping your thinking? What are you allowing into your home? Are your relationships producing peace, truth, freedom, and a deeper dependence upon Jesus, or fear, pressure, confusion, manipulation, and control? And perhaps most importantly: Have you become comfortable with something that once would have bothered your spirit? It is time to take inventory, test what is influencing us, and learn to discern.

    What Is Witchcraft? A Biblical Foundation for Discernment

    When you hear the word witchcraft, what comes to mind? Spells? Tarot cards? Ouija boards? Sorcery? Those may be the obvious examples, but Scripture takes the conversation deeper. In this episode of The Morning Charge, Joshua Hommes begins laying a biblical foundation for understanding witchcraft, counterfeit spiritual influence, rebellion, manipulation, control, idolatry, and false spirituality. This is not about becoming afraid of everything around us or blaming every difficult relationship, disagreement, or hard season on a demon. It is about learning to discern. Joshua walks through Scripture to examine rebellion in Saul’s life, counterfeit spiritual power before Pharaoh and in the story of Simon the sorcerer, manipulation and control through Jezebel, forbidden spiritual practices in Deuteronomy, and the ways our own flesh can come into agreement with destructive patterns. The challenge is simple: before pointing fingers at everyone around you, allow the Holy Spirit to examine you. What voices have you allowed into your life? What influences are shaping the way you think? Are they producing truth, peace, holiness, surrender, and obedience to God, or fear, confusion, manipulation, compromise, and control? We cannot recognize counterfeit influence if we are not deeply rooted in the truth. Learn to discern. Stay rooted in the Word. Follow the Holy Spirit. Walk in freedom.

    Look Again: God Is Closer Than You Think

    What if God hasn’t disappeared at all? What if He is already standing in the very place where you’ve been asking, “Lord, where are You?” In this episode of The Morning Charge, Joshua Hommes challenges us to look again. Mary stood face-to-face with Jesus and thought He was the gardener. The disciples walked beside Him on the road to Emmaus without realizing who He was. Jacob woke up and declared, “Surely the Lord is in this place, and I did not know it.” Joseph went through the pit, slavery, false accusation, and prison, yet Scripture continually reminds us that the Lord was with him. Sometimes pain clouds our perspective. Sometimes disappointment causes us to look for God in only one particular way. Sometimes we are waiting for the earthquake, the fire, or the dramatic sign while God is speaking through the whisper. If you are walking through waiting, transition, grief, uncertainty, disappointment, or a season where God seems silent, this episode is for you. Maybe the question isn’t simply, “God, where are You?” Maybe it is time to ask: “Lord, how are You moving here?” Don’t quit. Don’t assume silence means absence. Don’t mistake the process for abandonment. Look again. He may be closer than you think. Send us a message Join The Morning Charge LIVE Monday-Friday at 7:30 AM CT on TikTok. Want to go deeper?

    You Can’t Carry the Old Into the New

    What if the reason you feel stuck is not because God has stopped moving, but because you are still holding onto something that cannot go where He is taking you? In this episode of The Morning Charge, Joshua talks about what it means to truly step into a new season with God. New seasons often require new mindsets, new obedience, a different perspective, and the willingness to release old identities, fears, patterns, agendas, and ways of thinking. Through the stories of the prodigal son, Saul’s encounter with Jesus, Jacob becoming Israel, the woman with the issue of blood, and Naaman’s healing, we see a common thread... breakthrough often came when something changed inside the person first. Maybe you have been praying for something new while still carrying pieces of an old season. This episode is an invitation to ask the Lord what needs to be surrendered so you can move forward freely. What are you carrying that cannot go with you? The Morning Charge is real talk, real Jesus, and real life, helping you practically walk out your faith every day.

    You Didn’t Miss It - God Is Teaching You in the Process

    Have you ever looked at your life and wondered, “Did I miss what God had for me?” Maybe you thought you would be further along by now. Maybe God gave you a dream, vision, promise, or direction, but your life still doesn't look anything like what you expected. You didn't miss it. You may be learning something in the process. In this episode of The Morning Charge, Joshua Hommes talks about what happens when we become so focused on the destination that we miss what God is doing right where we are. Through the journeys of Israel, Joseph, David, and other biblical examples, we see that God doesn't only care about where He is taking us. He cares deeply about who we are becoming along the way. The wilderness can become a classroom. Waiting can become preparation. Even what feels like a delay may be an opportunity for God to develop the character, endurance, healing, faithfulness, and maturity we'll need for the next season. Instead of continually asking, “Why am I still here?” maybe it's time to ask a different question: “Lord, what are You teaching me here?” Don't despise today's season because you're waiting for tomorrow. Be present where your feet are, stay faithful with what God has placed in your hands, and let Him use the journey to prepare you for what's ahead.

    The Shaking Has Already Begun

    Sometimes what feels like everything is falling apart is actually God putting everything in its proper place. In this episode of The Morning Charge, Joshua shares a powerful word about spiritual shaking, refinement, and surrender. Looking at Hebrews 12, Romans 12, 1 Kings 18, and other passages, he explains why God allows seasons that expose what isn't built on Him. The shaking isn't punishment, it is preparation. When God begins stirring old wounds, unhealthy mindsets, fear, compromise, or misplaced priorities, He's inviting us to bring those things to the altar instead of suppressing them again. The fire of God doesn't destroy who He created you to be. It burns away everything that never belonged there in the first place. If you've felt unsettled lately... if relationships, plans, emotions, or circumstances seem to be shifting... this episode offers biblical perspective and practical encouragement for walking through seasons of refinement with confidence instead of fear. God isn't finished with you. Sometimes the greatest act of His love is allowing the shaking so that what remains is firmly rooted in Christ. Episode Summary: Why spiritual shaking is often evidence that God is working.  How the fire of God removes what doesn't belong.  The importance of rebuilding the altar before expecting fresh fire.  Why hidden compromise, fear, and distractions must be surrendered.  How to walk through seasons of refinement with hope and confidence.Send us a message Join The Morning Charge LIVE Monday-Friday at 7:30 AM CT on TikTok.

    The fire of God doesn't stay alive by accident. Many believers have experienced moments where they felt close to God, only to find themselves feeling spiritually dry again a few days later.
