The Great Teacher …The Holy Spirit of God is the Great Teacher sent by Jesus to the Church. Jesus declared it is for our benefit that He ascended, for only then could He send the promised Counselor (John 16:7).
The Holy Spirit dwells within believers, guiding and instructing us directly from the heart of God. He speaks only what He hears from Jesus and the Father, leading us into all truth and fostering oneness with God and one another—as Jesus prayed in John 17—that the world may believe. This indwelling Teacher empowers, unifies, and reveals Christ's ongoing presence and will to His people.

Knowing the Truth of History
— God is exposing...
Have you ever sensed that much of what we were taught about history simply doesn’t add up? The Lord is opening eyes and breaking strongholds so His people will recognize truth when it comes—and not resist it.
In this powerful teaching, we share a prophetic word that our generation has been systematically lied to across the seven mountains of influence. History is one of the key areas God is exposing. From the real story of America’s founding and the forgotten apostles of church history, to Tartaria, the Grand Canyon, and so much more—darkness has hidden the truth for far too long.
Light is now exposing the lies. The Holy Spirit is raising up those who will unearth real history by the Spirit of Truth. We are not called to defend every narrative we grew up believing. We are called to stay open, discern His voice, and prepare for a time when the history books will finally be rewritten in truth.

Broken or Crushed
— Rock of Stumbling & Offense
Discover the profound truths in this week's "Broken or Crushed" teaching series from SGGM. Scripture presents us with two distinct paths, both presenting unique challenges in our walk of faith. One path offers temporary ease in the temporal realm yet leads to eternal destruction, while the narrow path invites us to embrace suffering, persecution, and the daily death of self to live solely for Christ.
True discipleship requires counting the cost, relinquishing pride, and relying wholly on the Holy Spirit rather than choosing a comfortable, seeker-friendly lifestyle. By choosing to fall on the Rock of offense and surrendering our own desires, we allow Jesus to sit fully on the throne of our hearts.

Truth (A Comprehensive Teaching)
— What is Truth?
When Pilate asked Jesus, “What is truth?” he stood face-to-face with the answer. Jesus declared that the very reason He came into the world was to testify to the truth. He is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. Light exposes darkness, and Truth exposes every lie.
In this powerful teaching, we unpack why our battle is spiritual—truth versus deception—and why only Jesus, by His Spirit, can lead us into all truth. Scripture points to Him; it does not replace Him. Facts, science, religion, and even our own understanding fall short. Knowing Jesus sets us free. Dying to self and following the Holy Spirit opens the door to the Truth that never changes.

Fighting Between Christians
Even among Spirit-filled Christians, quarrels and division can arise. In this practical teaching, Tiffany and Kirk explore why fights occur between believers and how they stem from self-centered desires, pride, and the enemy’s lies (James 4:1-3).
Learn to address the real battle first—by using our spiritual authority to remove the enemy’s influence, humbling ourselves before God, and choosing forgiveness and love. Discover biblical keys to quick reconciliation, listening by the Spirit instead of arguing intellectually, esteeming others above ourselves, and walking in honesty and unity.
This teaching equips us to guard relationships, pursue true peace, and stay focused on Jesus. Essential for every believer committed to living as one in Christ. Watch this teaching and be strengthened in walking this out each day!

The Warrior Bride of Christ
In this latest teaching, we see the revealing of the Church—Christ’s Bride—as every heart that has come to Him, made perfect and spotless through the blood of Jesus and the washing of the Word. The Lord desires a glorious, deception-free Bride grounded in apostolic and prophetic truth, led fully by the Holy Spirit into all truth.
Far from passive or self-focused, she is a Warrior Bride—crucified to self, empowered by the Holy Spirit to walk in love, faith, authority, and power. She fights not against flesh and blood but the enemy, bringing heaven to earth through signs, wonders, deliverance, and bold obedience.
May we die to self, embrace the Spirit’s fire, and rise as part of God’s end-times army, advancing His Kingdom without fear, fully equipped for victory!

End Times: Jesus’ View
Jesus Himself provides the clear foundation for the end times through the Parable of the Wheat and Tares (Matthew 13). At the harvest—the end of the age—the angels first gather the tares (the wicked) for judgment, while the righteous (wheat) remain to shine in the Kingdom of their Father.
Just as in the days of Noah and Lot, the wicked are removed while the righteous stay to fulfill God’s purposes. There is no escape from tribulation; instead, the Church, filled with the Holy Spirit, overcomes and reveals Jesus’ glory on earth. All creation awaits the revealing of the sons of God as heaven comes to earth.
Discover God’s victorious plan and Great Reset— Praise the Lord!

Sin vs. Righteousness
In this powerful teaching, discover the freedom Christ won for us! Sin leads to death through temptation and evil desire (James 1:14-15), empowered by the law. But Jesus fulfilled the law, becoming sin and a curse for us so we might become the righteousness of God in Him (2 Corinthians 5:21).
Under the New Covenant, we are no longer under law but led by the Holy Spirit. Those born of God do not sin, for His seed remains in them (1 John 3:9). Move from sin consciousness to righteousness consciousness—your heart is made good in Christ!
Jesus is your victory, your defense in the courts of heaven, and the end of guilt and condemnation. Embrace the finished work of the cross and walk in the Spirit’s freedom today.
Praise the Lord!

New Standard of the Holy Spirit
A powerful new standard has been established since the rededication of the USA to God: Jesus Himself, fully expressed through the leading and power of the Holy Spirit.
This marks a glorious end-times move where the Lord is raising up Spirit-filled disciples who walk as Jesus walked. Expect boldness through faith, freedom from sin, healing, deliverance, and signs and wonders following.
In this hour, the Holy Spirit brings true unity in Christ—beyond fleshly divisions—empowering believers to make disciples of all nations as the Great Commission comes alive. All creation awaits the revealing of the sons of God who bring heaven to earth by obeying the Spirit.
The end-times harvest is here. Will you fully follow Jesus and His Spirit?

Prayer
In this week's SGGM teaching, we emphasize that Prayer is communication with God—interceding, talking with Him in praise and petition, and listening for His voice. Scripture richly illustrates this through the prayers of Jacob, Moses, Stephen, and the early church, with Jesus Himself modeling continual communion with the Father.
This teaching calls believers to reject man-made rules, rote repetition, and manipulative “witchcraft” prayers, instead following the leading of the Holy Spirit in every situation. True prayer flows from a humble, honest heart that seeks God’s will above personal agendas. It is not optional but essential for a relationship with the Lord, empowering angels through faith and releasing His power on earth as in heaven.
As the Lord declares, prayer forms relationship. When we pray by His Spirit, we align with His purposes, experience answered prayer, and walk in the joy of His presence.

Anointing
In this week's SGGM teaching, we emphasize that the anointing of God is His Spirit coming upon a person or group with heavenly direction, wisdom, and power to accomplish His specific purposes—always exalting Jesus and bringing good. In Scripture, priests like Aaron, kings like David, and leaders like Samson and Jehu were anointed for service, deliverance, and justice.
Today, this continues: God has anointed Donald Trump to lead His Great Reset, disrupting corrupt systems and preparing the ground for truth and freedom, as affirmed through many prophetic words.
Ultimately, Jesus is the perfect model—anointed to destroy the devil’s works and break every yoke. True anointing opposes man-made institutions, flows from the Holy Spirit, and brings liberty. Opposing God’s anointed means opposing God Himself.

How To Work With Angels
In this week’s SGGM teaching, we emphasize that believers have been given authority over angels — but it must be spoken and activated to be effective. Jesus Himself invites us to partner with these heavenly beings, who are underutilized by the Church.
Core principles include: speak to your angels spirit-to-spirit, get to know them (ask their names!), and treat them as fellow servants rather than tools. Have bold faith, practice communicating, and always operate by the Holy Spirit — angels only obey what aligns with God’s will.
From stopping storms and unlocking hidden truths to financial breakthroughs and battlefield victories, the testimonies show angels are ready to assist in ministry, protection, and revelation. The Lord says the angels are underutilized — it’s time to partner with them and see heaven move!

Wisdom, Unction & Timing
In this week's teaching, we are reminded that Wisdom is beautifully pictured in Proverbs 9 as a gracious woman inviting the simple to her feast of bread and wine. While the fear of the Lord is its beginning, true wisdom is found in Christ and perfected in love.
At its heart, this teaching calls us to move beyond natural knowledge and operate by the unction of the Holy Spirit — that distinct inner prompting that comes for a specific task at God’s precise moment. Like Jesus, who followed the Father’s timing even when it appeared foolish, we are invited to listen, trust, and obey the Spirit’s leading.
Whether it’s declaring healing, building for decades like Noah, or waiting on future assignments, wisdom flows through humble faith, surrendered hearing, and bold obedience to the Holy Spirit’s timely unction.

Interpreting Scripture & Correct Doctrine
In this week's teaching, we are reminded that the Scriptures are not the end goal—they’re a divine roadmap leading us to Jesus, the true Word of God and the One who makes us righteous. Intellectual study alone has fractured the Church into thousands of denominations, but God is not divided.
True doctrine flows through the Holy Spirit’s revelation to anointed apostles and prophets, who lay the foundation of the Church (Ephesians 2 & 4). They equip the Body to reach maturity and unity, protecting it from deception.
The New Covenant is Spirit-led, not rule-based or intellect-driven.
Scripture’s purpose? To ignite a living relationship with Jesus, not replace Him. Knowing about God is not the same as knowing Him. All revelation, teaching, and doctrine must point to Christ for His glory.
— Jesus is the prize ... Listen to the Spirit —
May you experience this living relationship to a whole new level and live life to its fullest.

LOVE
“Have you learned to love?” Not about belief, baptism, or spiritual gifts—but love. Why? Because God is love (1 John 4:8).
At the heart of our faith is this powerful truth: God is love. Without Him, genuine love cannot exist. The Holy Spirit, as the Spirit of Love, empowers us to live it out.
Paul’s masterpiece in 1 Corinthians 13 reveals what authentic love looks like. It is — patient, kind, humble, selfless, quick to forgive, and unfailing. It protects, trusts, hopes, and perseveres.
This isn’t emotional fluff, intellectual analysis, or manipulative “love languages.” Love is spiritual at its core.
We express love for God through joyful obedience to the Holy Spirit’s voice, just as Jesus did. We love others by daily laying down our lives—dying to self, following His lead, and seeking their highest good. This mirrors Christ’s sacrificial love for the Church.
Perfect love casts out fear and finds its ultimate proof at the cross. True love always chooses God freely.
JESUS!
This powerful and revelatory teaching exhorts us to know Jesus as He is now—not merely as He was during His earthly ministry. While we celebrate His birth and resurrection, the Father calls us to focus on Jesus Himself as the Gospel: the Way, the Truth, and the Life.
He is the eternal King of kings and Lord of lords, the Lion of Judah, the Savior, and the One whose Name is above every name. All authority, power, judgment, and creation have been given to the Son. His words—Spirit and Life—judge us; rejecting them means choosing death.
Jesus openly declared His divinity (“I AM,” “I and the Father are one”). He models Spirit-filled living and invites us to do the same: greater works through the Holy Spirit, walking in His peace, power, and preeminence.
See Him now—glorified, eyes like fire, reigning supreme—and let Christ in you transform everything. Amen!
The Law Masquerading as the Spirit.
Many claim to attend a “Spirit-filled” church, yet Tiffany and Kirk warn that not everyone who has or professes the Holy Spirit actually follows Him. A powerful prophecy declares there are only two ways to do church: one rooted in the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil (human knowledge, rules, theologies, and law-based systems that sound spiritual but are earthly and demonic), and God’s true way—the Jesus Way of the Spirit.
The Law Dressed Up in Spirit Clothes: Even Spirit-filled believers can slip back under the “yoke of bondage” (Galatians 5) by dressing up law and religious principles in Spirit clothing—self-help sermons, rule-keeping for holiness, step-by-step programs, and man-made guardrails that usurp the Holy Spirit’s role.
True Christianity isn’t optional integration of the Spirit; it demands full surrender. The Holy Spirit cannot be patched into old religious wineskins—He bursts them. The call is radical: walk by the Spirit, fight the good fight of faith, and give Jesus preeminence as the Gospel itself.
Jesus is the Way, the Truth, and the Life—there is no other way.
Two Trees—Tree of the Knowledge of Good & Evil vs. Tree of Life (A 4-Part Series)
In this four-part teaching series taught by Tiffany and Kirk, Kirk shares successive visions in which Jesus walks him past two trees that have stood since Eden: the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil and the Tree of Life. The first tree offers large, bright, low-hanging fruit that looks wise and is easy to pick—yet it never satisfies. It feeds religion, intellect, pride, and earthly wisdom, leaving people hungry and self-deceived. The second tree appears plain, its fruit hard to reach and difficult to swallow, yet those who eat the whole of it by faith are filled, transformed, and led into their true destiny. Jesus makes it clear: everyone must choose. Not choosing is still a choice. Only the Tree of Life—Jesus Himself, received through the Holy Spirit—brings lasting satisfaction, holiness, and the power of God. The invitation is open: pass by the familiar fruit of knowledge and climb for Life.
Part 1 introduces the vision: Jesus shows Kirk the attractive Tree of Knowledge that never satisfies and the harder Tree of Life that fills forever—if the whole fruit is eaten.
Part 2 declares that every person must choose. Knowledge is familiar and addictive; Life requires faith, humility, and the Holy Spirit’s leading. Not choosing is choosing death.
Part 3 exposes how the institutional church has largely chosen the Tree of Knowledge—earthly, self-centered wisdom—while the true Church chases Jesus alone and walks in heavenly wisdom.
Part 4 reveals that the temptation of knowledge never fully disappears. The Father intentionally places the Tree of Knowledge first so that those who love Him will keep choosing Life by faith and love, not by ease or appearance.
— Together, the series calls every hearer to reject the illusion of knowledge and eat fully from the Tree of Life.
