Total Surrender!

Jeremiah 2:8 KJV
The priests said not, Where is the LORD? and they that handle the law knew me not: the pastors also transgressed against me, and the prophets prophesied by Baal, and walked after things that do not profit.

Out of all the powerful, prophetic words released today, this one struck me the most. At Mantle 2025, Apostle Jennifer Weaver delivered a sobering cry rooted in Jeremiah 2:8, a cry calling the Church to return to her first love, to cast down every idol, and to run back to the altar where God’s presence dwells.

She said it plainly and prophetically: “We’ve made room for mixture in the church. We’ve tried to hold the Ark in one hand and the Asherah pole in the other.”

This piercing truth revealed the heart of the matter, we’ve allowed compromise to take the place of consecration. We’ve wanted the presence of God while entertaining the idols of culture. We’ve wanted the glory without the groaning. But revival and idolatry cannot coexist.

We want the mantle of power without the tears of surrender. But the Lord is showing us, before you wear the mantle, you must tear your garments.

Just like Elisha in 2 Kings 2:12, who cried out as Elijah was taken into heaven and “tore his clothes in two pieces,” we too must tear away everything familiar, everything fleshly, and everything former before we can take up the mantle God is releasing in this hour.

Apostle Weaver declared, “If you have a leader drawing you to themselves and not to Jesus, run! If you’re in a church where man is honored more than God, run!” Run to the Ark of Safety. The hour is late, and the urgency is great. The Church must arise, not in popularity, but in purity.

Lord, give us back prayer. Give us back fasting. Give us back the altar. Give us God again, holy, unfiltered, and unmatched.

This isn’t a season for shallow sermons or spiritual performance.
This is a time to cry aloud and spare not. To deny ourselves. To take up our cross. To follow Him fully.
Let every celebrity idol fall. Let every Asherah pole be torn down. Let every heart be made ready for the fire of God to fall again.

It’s time for the Church to Wake Up and Rise! You cannot wear what you have not first torn in surrender. The old must die so the new can rise. The altar must burn before the mantle can rest.

Run to the Ark of Safety before it’s too late. Tear your garments, rend your hearts, and return to the Lord.
