There is a growing trend that should concern all who take ministry and the Gospel seriously—the need for some pastors to go viral rather than go deeper in God.
We are witnessing an alarming shift where spiritual responsibility is being traded for shock value.
Every now and then, a pastor will "play with the text" to make the message more relatable or memorable. And sure, we get it—sermons don’t have to be stale. Sometimes a fresh angle, a little humor, or a bold metaphor helps people connect the dots. But lately, things have gone too far.
Case in point: A pastor recently took things to an extreme, asking his congregation when they last had a spiritual orgasm. He went on to describe praise as “busting a nut” and even suggested that God wants us to help Him "bust a nut." He threw around phrases like "penetrate" and told the congregation God is waiting for us to hit His “G-spot.”
This isn't deep. It’s disturbing. And more importantly—it’s spiritually irresponsible.
Sometimes we get creative with the text to keep things engaging—and I actually love it. A clever metaphor can make you smile and really make you think. Research the word even more.
But there’s a growing trend of mixing spiritual power under the banner of “manifestation,” but most people don’t talk about the consequences.
You may feel empowered in the moment, but over time it opens doors you didn’t intend to walk through. You lose more than you realize—people, peace, clarity, connection with God, even your mental and emotional stability.
Why do that when you can simply and ask God to give it to you and he will?
John 14:13-14 (KJV)
"And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it."
📖 Matthew 7:7 (KJV)
"Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you."
📖 John 15:7 (KJV)
"If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you."
There is a fine line between being creative with the Word and being careless with it. And when we start equating spiritual intimacy with physical release, without giving context, we’ve missed the whole point.
The Bible says in Isaiah 19:1 (KJV)
“Behold, the Lord rideth upon a swift cloud…”
🗝️ This supports God being swift when He moves in judgment or deliverance.
What we sow into our spirit matters. Everything trending and viral isn’t necessarily a victory.
The cross is still enough. The Gospel works. And God’s presence is very powerful.
"Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will remember the name of the Lord my God. - Psalm 20:7 (KJV)
