The Blacksmith Chronicles Podcast

Have you settled for a good Christian life instead of a God-ordained one? 👀 In this powerful message on the Blacksmith Chronicles Podcast, Ryan Johnson shares his born-again testimony from November 30, 1997—when God delivered him from addiction, pills, and partying and raised up a new man in Christ. Out of that encounter, Ryan now carries a burning word for the Body of Christ: Many believers aren't stuck because of sin…they're stuck because of comfort. In this episode, Ryan exposes the subtle danger of choosing good things instead of God things—good sermons, good worship, good programs, and good church activity that never actually lead to transformation, surrender, and true discipleship. Using passages like Isaiah 43:18–19, Ecclesiastes 3:1, Luke 10:41–42, and Romans 12:2, he calls believers out of spiritual stagnation and into a lifestyle that is: Fully surrendered to Jesus Aligned with the Word of God, not emotions or culture Willing to leave "good enough" for the perfect will of God Hungry for revival, holiness, and authentic transformation Ryan also confronts the deception of "being a good person" as a substitute for being born again, reminds us that Heaven is not inherited by goodness but through surrender to Jesus, and challenges the Church to move from good moments to God movements that shake cities and nations. If you've been feeling spiritually stuck, lukewarm, or too comfortable, this message will convict, encourage, and realign your heart with the purpose and assignment God has for your life. 👉 Subscribe to The Blacksmith Chronicles Podcast and join the movement of believers being forged for God's glory! 🎧 Listen on: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | Amazon Music | Destiny Image Podcast Network | EastTN TV ✉️ Connect with Ryan Johnson Ministries:🌐 Website: https://ryanjohnson.us📧 Email: [email protected] 🎙 Podcast: The Blacksmith Chronicles📖 Books & Resources: Visit our website 📣 Don't Forget To: ✅ LIKE the video ✅ SUBSCRIBE to the channel ✅ SHARE this episode with your community ✅ COMMENT with your thoughts or questions #BornAgainTestimony #FromGoodToGod #RevivalFire #TheGoodnessOfGod #RyanJohnsonMinistries #TheBlacksmithChroniclesPodcast #KingdomFamilyAlliance

In this powerful episode, Ryan releases the 2026 Prophetic Word: "The Throne Room and the Battlefield." This is a clarion call for the sons and daughters of God as we cross from 2025 into 2026—not to retreat… but to rise. Drawing from 1 Samuel 17:26, the 26th appearance of David in the NASB translation, Ryan reveals a prophetic parallel for the year 2026: 👉 This is the year the taunting spirit must be confronted. 👉 This is the year warriors awaken. 👉 This is the year the remnant stands. In this deep and discerning word, Ryan addresses: The growing spiritual hostility toward believers The need to discern between the throne room and the battlefield The rise of modern Goliaths: media, Hollywood, government, education, and digital censorship The prophetic significance of the number 26 (YHWH, covenant, identity, divine assignment) A bold call for the Church to confront intimidation, silence, and spiritual apathy Six powerful 2026 declarations to speak over your life, family, and territory This episode is not a doom-and-gloom word—it's an activation. A charge to step into covenant identity, holy boldness, and warrior authority. 📌 Get the full written prophetic word on the blog: 👉 https://www.ryanjohnson.us 📌 Partner with Ryan Johnson Ministries: Your monthly partnership helps equip the body of Christ, awaken regions, and strengthen revival assignments across the nation. 👉 https://www.ryanjohnson.us 📌 Invite Ryan to your 2026 event: Ryan is available for churches, conferences, and regional gatherings. 👉 Visit the website and submit a booking request.

In this powerful teaching, Ryan Johnson exposes one of the most dangerous deceptions in modern Christianity—the belief that salvation and surrender are the same thing. Many believers are saved enough to escape hell but not surrendered enough to walk in Kingdom authority. This message calls the Church back to full devotion, consecration, holiness, and obedience as the only path to spiritual maturity and true revival. Ryan unpacks: 🔥 The difference between confession and consecration 🔥 Why the Church is filled with believers without discipleship 🔥 How partial obedience opens doors to deception 🔥 Why surrender is the missing ingredient in modern revival 🔥 What Jesus meant when He said, "Take up your cross and follow Me" 🔥 How Heaven measures spiritual maturity 🔥 Why the end-time Church must be fully yielded, not partially committed If you feel stuck, spiritually dry, or hungry for deeper transformation, this message will bring conviction, clarity, and the kind of breakthrough that only comes when a believer fully lays down their life before the Lord. 👉 Subscribe to The Blacksmith Chronicles Podcast and join the movement of believers being forged for God's glory! 🎧 Listen on: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | Amazon Music | Destiny Image Podcast Network | EastTN TV ✉️ Connect with Ryan Johnson Ministries:🌐 Website: https://ryanjohnson.us📧 Email: [email protected] 🎙 Podcast: The Blacksmith Chronicles📖 Books & Resources: Visit our website 📣 Don't Forget To: ✅ LIKE the video ✅ SUBSCRIBE to the channel ✅ SHARE this episode with your community ✅ COMMENT with your thoughts or questions #RyanJohnsonMinistries #TheBlacksmithChroniclesPodcast #SurrenderToGod #RevivalCulture #ChristianDiscipleship

In this powerful episode of The Blacksmith Chronicles Podcast, Ryan Johnson delivers a prophetic message titled "Prepare", recorded live at OpenDoor Church in Burleson, Texas. This word carries divine urgency—calling the Body of Christ to become carriers of oil rather than spectators of revival. Drawing from Matthew 25's Parable of the Ten Virgins, Ryan challenges believers to live with both preparation and expectation, cultivating intimacy with the Holy Spirit that cannot be borrowed or manufactured. He also exposes the danger of religion without readiness and excitement without oil. This message reminds us: the King of Glory is coming for a pure and prepared bride—one who has trimmed her wick, guarded her oil, and opened her gates for His presence. 🔥 📌 In This Episode: The prophetic summons to "prepare the carriers of oil" The cost of anointing and what true oil represents Why expectation without preparation leads to disappointment The prophetic parallel between Acts 12 and today's Church How to guard your intimacy and keep your lamp burning 👉 Subscribe to The Blacksmith Chronicles Podcast and join the movement of believers being forged for God's glory! 🎧 Listen on: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | Amazon Music | Destiny Image Podcast Network | EastTN TV ✉️ Connect with Ryan Johnson Ministries:🌐 Website: https://ryanjohnson.us📧 Email: [email protected] 🎙 Podcast: The Blacksmith Chronicles📖 Books & Resources: Visit our website 📣 Don't Forget To: ✅ LIKE the video ✅ SUBSCRIBE to the channel ✅ SHARE this episode with your community ✅ COMMENT with your thoughts or questions #RyanJohnsonMinistries #TheBlacksmithChroniclesPodcast #PropheticWord #PrepareTheBride #CarriersOfOil
