Sometimes, when trying to discern what to cover within a discernment ministry you come across multiple events that require coverage. In these instances, I lump them together into a conglomeration of heresy. A cornucopia of confusion, if you will. Charisma News provides a never-ending reservoir of apostasy and sometimes it builds up, like sewage in a clogged pipe. It is not surprising this is happening now as the false prophets and teachers are uniting in pretending God is showing them what 2025 will bring. While there is a general flavor of positivity since their American Idol has been reelected president it is always revealing that their claim essentially is that the Holy Spirit is schizophrenic in that He is giving them all different words. Just a cursory look at Charisma today shows J Lee Grady declaring that we have to keep fighting in 2025. Malachi Brown, who is the idiot who knighted Greg Locke an apostle, says no no J. Lee - we have to destroy the spirit of accusation in 2025. Abby Trivett says that 2025 will be the year God builds the house? I mean, I know Jesus was a carpenter but why has God been waiting for 2025 to start building the house? Troy Brewer says that 2025 will be a year of contrast while Jonathan "Con-Man" Cahn is calling for some kind of prophetic lightning strike? The Jedi Knight huckster, Benny Hinn says this is the year where our hearts must be properly adjusted, while the aforementioned fake apostle Locke just says that we need to unlock our best year ever, all of us. This is just in the past two days. It is always hilarious to think that the creator of the entire universe is stopping everything He does to speak to this gaggle of collective idiocy only to give them all different words. For today however, I want to drill down on three specific words from the past two days that Charisma platformed, for even more hilarity. Let us start with one of the silly demonslayers, Kathryn Krick, named appropriately because her theology is such a pain in the neck.
"As we continue to seek the Lord and what He has to say about 2025, it is clear that God is ready to do exceedingly, abundantly far more than we ever could have asked for or imagined. During a Five-Fold Church service, Kathryn Krick gave a prophetic word of what the Lord has placed on her heart for this coming year. "I'm very excited about this year. I'm more expectant than ever for what God is going to do this year with what He has revealed for 2025," Krick says. "It says in Luke 4:18[-19], 'The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed, to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor.' 2025 is the year of the Lord's favor, the year of acceptance," she continues." - Charisma News
When you are a snake oil salesman without the indwelt Holy Spirit to guide you into all truth, it is easy to make these kinds of biblical mistakes. Kathryn Krick pretends she can cast demons out because it makes her easy money. It is a grift, pure and simple. She proudly posted a video where she refused to cast out a demon, allegedly in a child, until the mother sent her enough money through her phone. So, what is the problem here? Luke 4 is Jesus quoting Isaiah 61 first of all, and the punch line from Jesus is when He declared this prophecy is now fulfilled - through Him! You see, poor Kathryn is making a carnal connection that because the scripture says the acceptable "year" of the Lord, it must be talking about an actual year and thus she thinks she can casually connect it to 2025 and slap a "prophetic" tag on it. Voila! She thinks she can sound all pious and prophetic this way. The problem with this spiritual ignorance is that the acceptable year of the Lord is not an actual year as our finite minds comprehend. The acceptable year of the Lord is the time of grace, redemption and deliverance that was ushed in with Jesus, the Messiah. What is Krick teaching? That prior to 2025 we were not in the acceptable year of the Lord? That this is going to be the magical year? That God has been waiting all this time, for thousands of years, for 2025 and that His chosen vessel for delivering this extra-biblical message is a woman who thinks Christians can be demon possessed? Since these prophecies were fulfilled by Jesus in these scriptures, He has proclaimed liberty to the captives through the gospel. The spiritually blind have recovered their sight and the oppressed have been liberated from their sins. This has been happening every day since that day. 2025 offers no difference in these matters. The acceptable year of the Lord will continue until Jesus returns and when He does, Kathryn Krick will have some explaining to do.
"Krick discusses how when we give our lives to Jesus, we see the hand of God come upon us in supernatural ways, providing favor and protection in ways we would not have otherwise. "His miraculous power is constantly intervening in your life to bring about His will," says Krick. "To bring about His will that you would have abundant life, peace, joy, health, protection, so everyday that you are living when you are surrendered to God, serving God, His favor is coming upon your life." Having the Lord's favor as God's child, Krick says, is different, however, than experiencing the year of the Lord's favor. "When you give your life to Jesus, you have peace, you have joy, you have abundant life, but there are different seasons in this journey"there's wilderness seasons, refining fire seasons, process seasons, valley seasons and then there's mountaintop seasons. There's walls of Jericho coming down seasons. Promises being fulfilled seasons," she says. She points out that while the Lord's favor is experienced by God's children at all times, there is a moment for an appointed time of God's favor that radically changes everything. "This year of 2025 is the acceptable year of the Lord. It's the year of the Lord's favor for us in this revival," she says. Krick points out that the ministry has gone through the wilderness, dealt with challenges, but now is getting ready to experience God's favor unlike ever before. Revival is ready to break out in ways no one has seen yet. "We've seen little compared to what God has in store because this revival is for the whole body of Christ," she says. With only a few days into 2025, take the opportunity to pray, fast and seek the Lord's presence and guidance for what kinds of things he would like to do in your life this year." - Charisma News
Sigh. This is why so many people have their faith shipwrecked by charlatans like Krick. The supernatural act is salvation alone. The fact that we can be saved eternally is entirely a supernatural act of God. It provides no guarantee of carnal favor and protection - none. Ask the underground church in China or our Middle Eastern brothers and sisters who are beheaded for refusing to renounce Christ. The favor and protection are rooted in the fact that His kingdom is not of this world. The problem is Kathryn Krick loves this world and the sin and excess it allows. That is why she is trying to sell favor within it. If you are truly saved beloved, you already have received His favor. Jericho is not a season in your life. The bible is not about you. The fact that she is able to deceive as many people as she does is not "favor." It is judgment upon her and a biblically illiterate apostate church that wants their itching ears scratched. Prayer is always important but if you want to know what God would like to do in your life this year - read His word! Pick up your cross and deny yourself! Care about the people. Share the gospel. Take up the cause of the widow and orphan. Turn the other cheek. Stop following people like Kathryn Krick. While you are at it, stop following people like Jenny Weaver:
