Mark 3:25 March 5, 2025
"If a house is divided against itself, that house will not be able to stand" (KJV).
In Mark 3:25, we are warned that a house divided against itself will not stand. As a nation, we are witnessing a growing division instead of striving to heal and bring people together. No one needs me to tell them where we are; we are divided. We should be in a period of reconciliation, yet our division is only growing. It feels as though we are fighting the wrong enemy—each other.
In the prophetic book of Isaiah, it reads:
Isaiah 14:16
"They that see thee shall narrowly look upon thee, and consider thee, saying, Is this the man that made the earth to tremble, that did shake kingdoms?" (KJV)
Isaiah is prophesying the future of Satan, where those whose names are written in the Lamb's Book of Life will look down into the fires of hell and see him in torment, wondering how he caused so much death and destruction. This is a future event, but what do we do until then? And how can we defeat him?
2 Chronicles 7:14
"If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land" (KJV).
Something worth noting in this scripture is that God isn’t calling sinners to repentance; He’s calling His saints to repentance. Maybe it’s time we, as Christians, put away our idols. In this case, I am referring to anything that takes priority over God, and for most of us, that would probably be politics. Red against Blue, Blue against Red—sooner or later, we’ll all be misled. If only we could surrender our nation’s sins and place all of it under the Blood of the Lamb, we could change the color of our flag to white—white for surrender. But first, we have to raise His banner in our own hearts, a heart of self-surrender, and begin praying for our nation’s forgiveness.
Let’s surrender.
He is:
Jehovah Nissi (יְהוָה נִסִּי) – "The Lord Our Banner"
Jehovah Rapha (יְהוָה רָפָא) – "The Lord Who Heals"
Jehovah Tsidkenu (יְהוָה צִדְקֵנוּ) – "The Lord Our Righteousness"
Blessings,

Revelation 12:11 (AMP)
"And they overcame and conquered him because of the blood of the Lamb and because of the word of their testimony, for they did not love their life and renounce their faith even when faced with death."
This verse profoundly declares how we, as believers, conquer the enemy—through the blood of the Lamb and the word of our testimony. But how do we apply the blood in our daily lives? One way is through communion, where we remember and partake in Christ’s sacrifice.
I take communion often, sometimes with close friends, and each time, it is a moment of prayer, revelation, and transformation. Communion is not just a ritual—it’s a learning experience that deepens my understanding of the power of Christ’s sacrifice. Recently, as I meditated on Revelation 12:11, I realized that this verse is directly connected to communion. The victory it speaks of is made real through the body and blood of Jesus, which we partake in as an act of faith.
Luke 22:19-20 (AMP)
"And when He had taken bread and given thanks, He broke it and gave it to them, saying, 'This is My body, which is given for you; do this in remembrance of Me.' And in the same way He took the cup after they had eaten, saying, 'This cup, which is poured out for you, is the new covenant in My blood.'”
Just as modern science has discovered ways to modify RNA—changing the very blueprint of how our bodies produce proteins—communion is a spiritual transformation that alters our very nature. While gene therapy can modify physical traits, communion changes us at a deeper level—it aligns us with Christ, strengthens our spirit, and equips us for battle.
When we take communion, we are partaking in spiritual DNA transformation. The blood of Jesus is not just symbolic—it is a weapon of victory. His body was broken for us, and in response, our lives become a living offering to Him. Our words, spoken in faith, become swords in the Spirit (Ephesians 6:17), cutting down the enemy’s lies.
Through communion, we don’t just remember Christ’s sacrifice—we step into the power of His victory.
He is: El Shaddai
God Almighty

You’re the Love Letter
From: Jude, a servant of Jesus Christ, and a brother of James. To: Christians everywhere---beloved of God and chosen by Him. May you be given more and more of God’s kindness, peace, and love. (Jude 1:1-2 TLB).
Written through the love of a humble servant of Jesus Christ. Jude was Jesus’s and James's half-brother, but he did not place himself at the same level as Jesus by identifying his earthly relationship with Christ; yet he chose to identify as a servant and the brother of a servant.
In our day and age, the true meaning of servant can easily slip past us. The Greek word servant means ‘slave’, voluntary or involuntary. Some enslaved people were indentured by choice, others were taken by force, and yet others were born into slavery. Jude appears to have become a ‘slave to Christ.’ Like Jude, you and I qualify for all three categories of slavery: first, we are taken by force from the kingdom of hell; second, we voluntarily accept Jesus as our Lord and Savior. Third, we are born into captivity by ‘Being born-again.’
Like Jude, we had to believe that Jesus was the Christ and accept Him as Lord and Savior. But Jude took it to the highest level, the level of being the least, a servant for others in Christ. Beloved of God and chosen by Him. ‘Beloved’ means sanctified by God and made Holy, and once you accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior, you're chosen by God.
And here is a very special prayer that Jude prayed just for you and all the Saints of eternity. The prayer does not yield to time; it is perpetual for posterity: “May you be given more and more of God’s kindness, peace, and love.”
More and more, God wants to keep pouring out His Love and Kindness and give you peace more than you can imagine. Please take a moment to ask Jesus, ‘Lord, will you please bless me today?’ His answer is always “yes.” He wants to bless you more and more; be willing to receive. Look for the blessing and be thankful. On occasions, the blessings may not look like a blessing at that exact moment, but if you look deep enough and are patient enough, you will find where God may have used a flat tire to bless someone who stopped to help you. You may speak a kind word that helps someone get through their day or offer a lifesaving prayer.
Eventually, you will be the reflection of God’s kindness, peace, and love more and more.
He is: Adonai
Lord, Master, Owner

“Jesus left that place and went to the vicinity of Tyre. He entered a house and did not want anyone to know it, yet he could not keep his presence secret. When she heard about him, a woman whose little daughter was possessed by an impure spirit came and fell at his feet. The woman was a Greek, born in Syrian Phoenicia. She begged Jesus to drive the demon out of her daughter.
“First let the children eat all they want,” he told her, “for it is not right to take the children’s bread and toss it to the dogs.”
“Lord,” she replied, “even the dogs under the table eat the children’s crumbs.”
Then he told her, “For such a reply, you may go; the demon has left your daughter.”
She went home and found her child lying on the bed, and the demon gone” (“Bible Gateway Passage: Mark 7:24-30 - New International Version”).
I thought it necessary to show the location of Jesus’s journey. He is approximately 100 miles in a straight route from Jerusalem to Tyre. Phoenicia was formally before the Maccabean Revolt in 164 BC, a Greek/Hellenistic province (Bartholomew and Goheen). Mapping the extent of Jesus’s travels and the magnitude of His fame throughout the regions and explaining the Greek heritage of the Syrian Phoenician mother, who dropped everything and hastily visited Jesus and petitioned Him for her daughter’s miracle.
However, when she arrived at the table of Jesus, she was met with silence, which she countered with persistence; like the widow and the judge, she did not quit; Jesus is the judge, and she is the widow. Like the judges annoyed neighbors in the middle of the night, the disciples asked Jesus to make her leave. Yet, He remained silent, knowing that the silence would increase her determination and the disciples' anger. In their minds, ‘how could Jesus tolerate a Greek woman?’ When Jesus broke the quiet, it was not what everyone had expected to hear. I imagine it was a moment of silence. Jesus replied, “First let the children eat all they want,” he told her, “for it is not right to take the children’s bread and toss it to the dogs” (“Bible Gateway Passage: Mark 7:24-30 - New International Version”).
What was Jesus saying? “The exact word Jesus used here, in Greek, was kunarion, meaning “small dog” or “pet dog” (“Why Did Jesus Call the Canaanite Woman a Dog?”). Jesus said, ‘Let the spiritual leaders eat first (the big dogs), and then we can feed the puppies.’ How would she reply? She has listened to the insults of the disciples, and yet no one has carried her away at this point or forced her to leave, I notice that none of the disciples had the title ‘usher’ attached to their names. To her, this was but one more hurdle to leap; she was lacking humility; she presumptuously entered in knowing that according to Hebrew custom, she could defile all, for after all, she was a Greek. Instead of jumping the hurdle, she climbed under it and asked for the crumbs.
“Lord,” she replied, “even the dogs under the table eat the children’s crumbs.” Then He told her, “For such a reply, you may go; the demon has left your daughter.” (“Bible Gateway Passage: Mark 7:29-30 - New International Version”). The central theme is that grace is available to all if we ask for it in humility and thankfulness. Jesus Christ’s authority is proven Sovern and Autonomous in that His authority covers all regions, and His faith cast out a demon without even saying a word, nor did Jesus have to go and visit the child and lay hands on her; the demon left, vacated without hesitation, it probably left in fear, a thing which it has sown in humanity for centuries.
The major players are mostly not mentioned by name, but by title, and only one minor character was mentioned by title; it was not the dog; it's lower; it was the demon. How could this event have changed history? How did it propel The Drama of Scripture? After the King has risen, we find cohesion of grace again challenged in the scriptures.
“Now in these days when the disciples were increasing in number, a complaint by the Hellenists [a] arose against the Hebrews because their widows were being neglected in the daily distribution. 2 And the twelve summoned the full number of the disciples and said, “It is not right that we should give up preaching the word of God to serve tables. 3 Therefore, brothers, [b] pick out from among you seven men of good repute, full of the Spirit and wisdom, whom we will appoint to this duty. 4 But we will devote ourselves to prayer and the ministry of the word.” 5 And what they said pleased the whole gathering. They chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Spirit, and Philip, Prochorus, Nicanor, Timon, Parmenas, and Nicolaus, a proselyte of Antioch. 6 These they set before the apostles, and they prayed and laid their hands on them” (“Bible Gateway Passage: Acts 6:1-7 - English Standard Version”).
Once again, the demon has reappeared, this time to cause strife amongst the Hebrews and the Greeks. A couple of years earlier, an annoying, uninvited dinner guest arrived at the disciple's table, and they were taught a lesson in grace. And what was the outcome? “And the word of God continued to increase, and the number of the disciples multiplied greatly in Jerusalem, and a great many of the priests became obedient to the faith” (“Bible Gateway Passage: Acts 6:1-7 - English Standard Version”).
Summary
A long trip to a different region, a reckless woman, a despised culture, a possessed child, arrogant disciples, and a fleeing demon combined to make history, establish a president of cultural unification, and push forward The Drama of Scripture.

I was praying about something that I believe is God's will. And I don't know if it was prophetic, but I spoke these words:
"God's will, God's way!"
Dear Brothers & Sisters
Seasons change, and with a heavy heart, I want to share a significant decision with you all. After much prayer and consultation with friends and board members, I have decided to take a break from radio broadcasting for a while. In my prayers, I felt the Lord leading me into new pastures. The decision was not an easy one, but I found myself feeling exhausted.
Having sought advice from trusted friends and with much consideration, we decided to step back temporarily. Yet, I felt a prompting to consult one more person before finalizing my decision. I reached out to my pastor friend, and he shared something profound. "You know, I'll be returning to the pulpit this Sunday; ten months ago, the Lord led me to step away and rest."
In that moment, I knew it was my answer.
Over the past 7 1/2 years, our broadcasts have reached eight states, covering a radio audience of about 19 million. The number of listeners remains to be discovered, but I take pride that when the Lord gave me the vision to go on air, He did not want me to ask for donations. He provided by faith, and the funds were always there despite high costs.
While I will continue to engage in ministry work, my focus for now will shift towards my studies and completing the publication of my book, "Who is God?" with TBN Publishing.
Thank you all for your unwavering support throughout this incredible journey.
The last program will air on December 31, 2023.
Sincerely,
Chaplain Coy
Update: While the editing process is long, expected publish date is around June 2024. I will provide updates and let everyone know when it is published.
