The prophet begins by explaining that every great movement of God first passes through a “pre-encounter,” a period of welcoming new souls before the official meeting. This phase must be filled with people who have just received Christ or are about to receive it. The aim is to make initial contact, to present the word, to explain the vision of the “government of the twelve,” and to show new believers that the Church is called to care for them, to discipline them, and to prepare them for the spiritual journey. <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Using the parable of the prodigal son, the prophet describes “rebellion” as the refusal to obey paternal (or divine) directives and the choice of a “distant land”\u2014a way of life separate from the values of God’s house. It shows that the attitude of wanting to control everything, of following personal desires, and of placing oneself above spiritual advice invariably leads to the dissipation of possessions, to the loss of diplomas, to debauchery, and to financial, relational, and psychological problems. <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The discourse emphasizes that, once in this distant land, the person wastes all that God has given him: time, money, talents, health, and even inner peace. The prophet emphasizes that waste is not only material; it is also a loss of “joy,” of “hope,” and of the destiny that God has planned. Visible results (school failures, addictions, family breakdowns) are signs that the heart is no longer aligned with the standards of God’s house.

<\/p>\n
Even believers who claim to have given their lives to Jesus can find themselves in the same trap if they do not live according to biblical standards. The prophet, therefore, invites each listener to make a sincere assessment before the Lord, to recognize his true state and to repent: “Here I am, Lord, as I am.” He reminds us that the true Christian marks his identity by his fruits and not by his words. Returning home involves letting go of rebellious mindsets, letting God take back control, and accepting the discipline and training that the home (the spiritual family) offers. <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
In conclusion, the prophet proclaims that God is ready to intervene immediately. He declares that during the day God will liberate, heal, and refresh the hearts that submit, that the shells will be broken, and that the participants will come out transformed, able to live “the life in abundance” promised by Jesus. He encourages everyone to persevere in prayer, to welcome the presence of the Holy Spirit, and to look to concrete results as a sign of a true relationship with God. In this way, the pre-encounter is transformed into a true time of divine encounter, where the word of God nourishes each being “according to its season.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":12661,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pagelayer_contact_templates":[],"_pagelayer_content":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[34,27,39],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-12680","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-seminar","category-teaching","category-youth"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.swanministries.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12680","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.swanministries.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.swanministries.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.swanministries.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.swanministries.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12680"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.swanministries.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12680\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":12793,"href":"https:\/\/www.swanministries.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12680\/revisions\/12793"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.swanministries.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/12661"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.swanministries.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12680"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.swanministries.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=12680"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.swanministries.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=12680"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
