Ryan Miller (0:00)

Why am I being so tempted recently?

Riaan Swiegelaar (0:02)

It's a massive weapon at the moment.

Ryan Miller (0:04)

To target children, they're posing as children through games like Minecraft and Roblox.

Riaan Swiegelaar (0:09)

Even on TikTok, Minecraft, Roblox are being targeted.

Ryan Miller (0:13)

What does that even mean? That snakes are on the same frequency as the demonic.

Riaan Swiegelaar (0:17)

Why would God then not reveal this to you? Why is it the most repeated race in the Bible? Do not fear, do not be fearful. Why do you think?

Ryan Miller (0:27)

Do you think we're in the EndTimes?

Riaan Swiegelaar (0:28)

How much of the world is under demonic influence at the moment? Do you understand?

Ryan Miller (0:32)

Can the enemy come in and tempt with sin to block the blessing that the Lord has for you? If you saw that the demons knew their time was up, what did that even look like?

Riaan Swiegelaar (0:41)

I don't want to talk about that.

Guys, welcome back to the Jesus People Podcast. We've got the great honor of having Riaan Swiegelaar back on the podcast, round four, man. I mean, shoot, it's been a minute since we've chatted, but definitely feel like the Lord has done some incredible things in your life. And I always feel connected to you, man. You're just such a great brother in Christ. So thank you for coming back on.

Riaan Swiegelaar (1:06)

Thank you. Absolutely. Such an honor for me to be back. And I know I forward you some of the voice messages from time to time from people who have reached out after they've seen some of our previous episodes. And just to hear people's testimonies, to hear from other fellow brothers and sisters about how their eyes have opened for certain things. It's just incredible. So it's such a blessing.

And thank you for your platform, really. Amazing.

Ryan Miller (1:37)

Well, it's really cool. I've got people coming up to me in grocery stores and being like, I saw you with Riaan. It's changed the way I've parented. It's changed the way we watch TV. It's changed so many things about what we do. And that's what I want to get into. You know, we've talked a lot about the very dark and deep things of the world and how the enemy is attacking and what's on the agenda for 2027 for the satanic church. And we've gone after these really big topics. We've talked about Halloween. We've talked about yoga. We've talked about all this stuff.

But when we were chatting the other day, you were telling me, you're like, man, my calling is to equip the body of Christ to know how to war in the spirit. And that's where I want to go today. I want to go really, really practical for you today. And I know you've got some things on your heart that need to be shared, that are being silenced and suppressed right now online where people are not listening. And the one thing you can say about Riaan is you've got a track record of being right.

It's like you've called things in the past that are coming down the pipe, ways that the enemy is attacking, and they've happened. And so now with a bit of history, we can look back and be like, well, we should probably start paying attention to some of the things you're saying, because you're not just like prophesying. You're saying this is what was written. This is what their agenda literally is. And there are some things playing out right now. So would you just tell us for every parent that's watching, for every young person that's watching, for every person that is saying, man, I want to arm up. I want to grow in Jesus as much as possible. What does the church need to be aware of right now that we're not aware of?

Riaan Swiegelaar (3:11)

Okay. So I think before I say that, what we have to realize as the followers of Christ, as the sons and daughters of God, is that we have authority, we have victory. We actually don't have to be afraid of these things. So I want to start with that because we might go into some dark things. But I think a good place to jump off when we talk about spiritual warfare is know who we are in Jesus. Know that Christ has conquered the enemy on the cross. The enemy doesn't want you to know that. The enemy doesn't want you to actually know that he is a fallen being.

So people put quite often, they put the devil on this pedestal almost, or they come with this thought that the devil and God are somehow still fighting on the same level. Where in fact, because Satan is a fallen being, he is under our feet. That is how knowing actually is. So I think that is a good place to actually stop. Just realize that. It's really, it's in the word as well.
