This month, we begin a new ongoing series designed to help recalibrate our paradigms and think biblically in the days ahead. In this episode, Dr. Michael Lake explores why the Word of God is not merely a devotional book—but a war book, filled with divine concealment, spiritual discernment, and prophetic “bookends” from Genesis to Revelation.
We walk through the mystery of Genesis 1:1–2, the meaning of tohu and bohu, and how the “dragon of chaos” and the “beast” imagery connect to Revelation 13 and even Matthew 24—revealing the enemy’s strategy of escalating global chaos to prepare the world for a counterfeit savior. Along the way, we discuss false doctrine, false prophecy, persecution, lawlessness, and why the remnant must recover a warrior mindset and rediscover the gospel of the Kingdom.

The Lord of Armies: Realigning with Heaven | Angels, Jericho & the Remnant’s Joshua Moment | KIB 504
In KIB 504, Dr. Michael and Mary Lou Lake unpack why God is called Yahweh Sabaoth (Lord of Armies) and how the remnant can realign with heaven for the days ahead. From angelic activity and the reality of the unseen realm to Joshua’s strategy at Jericho, this episode calls the Body of Messiah to covenant faithfulness, obedient prayer, and Spirit-led warfare. Expect a strong exhortation to reject deception, resist mind control, and cooperate with heaven’s armies so that God’s will is done on earth as it is in heaven (Matt. 6:10).
