Are you ready for what God is about to release in the earth?
In this powerful episode of the Kingdom Intelligence Briefing, Dr. Michael and Mary Lou Lake explore the spiritual preparation necessary for the activation of remnant ministry in the last days.

The world is becoming increasingly unstable. Economic uncertainty, spiritual deception, cultural collapse, technological control systems, and growing hostility toward biblical truth are creating unprecedented challenges for believers.
In this powerful episode of the Kingdom Intelligence Briefing, Dr. Michael and Mary Lou Lake explore what Scripture teaches about preparing for troubled times. Rather than promoting fear, they reveal the biblical pattern found throughout God’s Word: God warns, God prepares, and God preserves a faithful remnant.
Drawing from the lives of Noah, Joseph, Elijah, and the early Church, Dr. Lake examines how believers must prepare spiritually, emotionally, mentally, and practically for the days ahead. This episode also addresses discernment, covenant faithfulness, hearing the voice of God, strengthening the inner man, resisting deception, and learning how to walk in kingdom authority during turbulent times.
The question is not whether difficult times will come. The question is whether God’s people will be prepared when they arrive.

What does the Bible REALLY teach about judgment?
In Episode 531 of the Kingdom Intelligence Briefing, Dr. Michael and Mary Lou Lake explore a critical truth that much of the modern Church avoids: judgment is not separate from covenant — it is part of covenant.
From Genesis to Revelation, Scripture reveals that God’s judgments are not contradictions of His love, but manifestations of His covenant faithfulness, holiness, and justice. Dr. Lake takes a deep theological dive into the covenantal necessity of judgment, exposing how modern Christianity has embraced blessing without accountability, grace without holiness, and power without purification.
Counterfeit Spirits in the Church and the Remnant’s Need for Discernment | KIB 526

As deception increases in the last days, believers must develop biblical discernment, the fear of the Lord, and a deeper dependence on the Holy Spirit.
Mary Lou opens the discussion with a sober warning about deception, spiritual warfare, and the need for earnest prayer in a prophetic hour. Dr. Lake then contrasts the ministry of the Holy Spirit with the operation of counterfeit spirits, showing how false spiritual manifestations can produce confusion, pride, sensuality, doctrinal compromise, and instability rather than Christlikeness, holiness, and truth.

She also highlights the importance of remembering the Lord’s deliverance through the Passover and the protective power of the blood of Jesus.
Dr. Lake then continues his important series, “What’s So New About the New Covenant?” by diving deep into the biblical meaning of heart circumcision.
