Prophecy Fulfilling in 2025
We are living in a period of seismic shifts, a world teetering on the edge of transformation. The cultural upheaval we’re witnessing isn’t random—it’s cyclical. Every few generations, a society reaches a breaking point, and history demands a new order. This era, like the ones before it, is pregnant with change and the question before us is simple: Who will shape what’s next?
The Death of Passivity: Why Now Matters More Than Ever
The Lord’s words to Ezekiel in Ezekiel 12:23 echo loudly in our time:
“Tell the people, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: I will put an end to this proverb, and you will soon stop quoting it.’ Now give them this new proverb to replace the old one: ‘The time has come for every prophecy to be fulfilled!’”
For decades, cultural prophets have declared the decline of faith, family and morality as inevitable. Skeptics scoffed at the idea of revival, mocking the promises of God as outdated dreams. But we stand at a tipping point where God is saying, “No more delay.” The fulfillment of every prophecy is at hand, and He’s raising up a generation who will refuse to wait passively while the world burns.
Leonard Ravenhill once said, “The world is not waiting for a new definition of the Gospel, but for a new demonstration of the power of the gospel.” This isn’t the hour for quiet observation but for bold action. The days of passive Christianity are over.

Legislation to Application: The Joshua Generation
Joshua 1:3 declares, “Every place that the sole of your foot shall tread upon, that have I given unto you.” The first five books of the Bible are filled with promises—the blueprint of what God intends to do. But the book of Joshua is where the promises are tested in the furnace of reality. It’s one thing to hear what God will do; it’s another to step into the battlefield and take what He has already given.
This year, 2025, will be the year believers transition from legislation to application. We’ve studied the promises. We’ve quoted the verses. Now, we’re being called to walk into the land and claim it. The violent, not the timid, will take the kingdom by force (Matt. 11:12). This isn’t about aggression toward people but spiritual boldness in a world desperate for truth.
The Israelites didn’t inherit their promise by standing on the sidelines. They faced giants, walls and warfare. Ownership required stepping into enemy territory and taking dominion. Likewise, we cannot sit idly by waiting for change to happen to us. We must own this moment, or we will be owned by it.
A World in Crisis
Every great upheaval is preceded by signs. Economically, we’re witnessing record inflation and widening inequality. Politically, nations are more divided than ever. Spiritually, many are wandering aimlessly, embracing anything that offers meaning in a void of moral chaos. According to a recent Pew Research survey, over 60% of Americans now identify as “spiritual but not religious.” People aren’t rejecting faith—they’re starving for power and authenticity.
This moment is not an accident. In his book “The Fourth Turning,” Strauss highlights how every crisis creates an opportunity for a new order to emerge. We are at the height of one such crisis. As history turns the page, Christians have the opportunity to step in, not as victims of change, but as architects of revival.
Own the Revolution
Luke 19:13 tells us to “Occupy till I come.” To occupy means to take ground, to govern, to influence. It’s time to disciple a new generation with boldness, equipping them not just with knowledge but with the authority to walk it out. The cultural giants of our time—relativism, secularism, moral ambiguity—must be confronted, not with fear, but with the power of the gospel.
What You Must Do Now
God’s promises are waiting, but they won’t fall into our laps. The year ahead demands courage, faith and relentless action. Here’s how we position ourselves to own the revolution:
- Step Into the Battle: Refuse passivity. Engage in prayer, spiritual warfare and cultural dialogue. The enemy won’t hand over territory without a fight.
- Occupy with Purpose: Wherever you are—whether in business, media, education or ministry—own your space. Bring kingdom principles into every sphere of influence.
- Demonstrate the Power: Don’t settle for talk. The world is tired of empty rhetoric. Live a life that demonstrates the transformative power of the gospel.
- Prepare the Next Generation: Like Joshua leading Israel into Canaan, we must equip those coming behind us to fight their own battles. Teach them to discern the times and act with bold faith.
The Time Has Come
We are not victims of the upheaval—we are God’s chosen instruments for change. The time of waiting is over. The world is desperate for a demonstration of God’s power, and He’s calling His people to rise up, take dominion and own the revolution.
This is your moment. Step into the promise. Fulfill your calling. The time has come for every prophecy to be fulfilled. Will you be among those who take it by force? Are you ready to own the revolution?
