RISE LIKE THUNDER

The Next Generation of Prophets!

By Dr. Stephen Phinney

A new wave of prophetic voices is rising—young, resolute, unshaken by culture, and deeply anchored in the heart of Yeshua, and our ministry is front and center motivating this movement. They will not prophesy for applause or popularity; they will cry out from the secret place, shaped by purity, intercession, and surrender. These prophets will not advance trends—they will challenge them. Their boldness will offend, their mercy will heal, and their words will bear the weight of Heaven’s justice.

This generation is being forged in silence, in suffering, in rejection—and in revival. They will speak with holy fire, wield Scripture with precision, and call lukewarm hearts to repentance. Like Jeremiah, they will weep. Like Ezekiel, they will see. Like John the Baptist, they will prepare the way. They are not called to entertain—they are summoned to confront and awaken. Their lives will be their message.

And they are coming. Not with smooth speech, but with Spirit-breathed clarity. Not with titles, but with tears. Not with performance—but with power.

THE END TIMES FOG

In a world thick with spiritual fog, moral compromise, and cultural confusion, Gen-Z will not be silent—they will rise like thunder. Though their generation has been labeled distracted, deconstructed, and disillusioned, Heaven sees a remnant stirred by truth, forged in fire, and baptized in boldness. These sons and daughters are being awakened—not by hype or religion, but by the indwelling life of Yeshua. They will not blend in. They will not back down. They will speak the Gospel with clarity and live with surrender, even when it costs them everything. Like lightning against a stormy sky, their obedience will expose darkness and call their peers out of apathy.

They are the Davids who will run toward giants, the Esthers who will fast in the face of destruction, the Josiahs who will tear down altars of compromise. Raised in a digital age, they will use its tools to proclaim holiness, identity, and prophetic truth. Their hunger will outpace entertainment. Their worship will defy trends. And their cry will shake the lukewarm. The culture may plague them with lies, but they will plague the culture with light. Heaven’s justice will thunder through their testimony. And the earth will know—they were chosen for this hour.

My grandson Wyatt is no ordinary young man—he’s rising like thunder in a storm-swept generation, grounded in Yeshua and armored for the fight of faith. You can see it in his eyes, hear it in his prayers, and feel it in the way he speaks truth without apology. He was born for this hour—not to blend in, but to break through. Like David with a sling, Wyatt is stepping into battles far greater than himself, yet utterly confident in the One who lives within him.

He doesn’t shrink from opposition—he’s stirred by it. Because the fight he’s called to isn’t just for himself, it’s for the broken, the silenced, the forgotten. The Spirit of Yeshua pulses through him, bold and unshaken. And as darkness tries to shout louder, Wyatt's life declares even louder: “I was made for war—and peace is my weapon.” Heaven is watching. Hell is trembling. And the earth will know that one of God’s thunderous sons has awakened.

Listen to a song he recently wrote for IOM America's iZ Music Channel:

As the final days of humanity unfold, the remnant of Gen-Z will not go quietly—they will rise as torchbearers of Truth, piercing deception with conviction drawn from the very heartbeat of Heaven. They were not shaped in ease but refined in fire, and what remains is a generation unwilling to compromise.

These are the ones who will not trade righteousness for relevance, who will stand when others bow, and who will speak when silence is demanded.

Their voices will carry more than opinions—they will carry prophecy, purity, and the piercing wisdom of Yeshua’s indwelling life.

In the face of persecution, digital distortion, and cultural decay, this remnant will not retreat—they will declare. They will bring Truth not as a suggestion, but as a summons. Like final trumpets before the King returns, their lives will echo justice, holiness, and urgent mercy. And while the world rushes toward endings, Gen-Z’s faithful few will rush toward eternity—unafraid, unwavering, and ablaze. The last chapter belongs to the ones who refused to forget Who they belong to and what they were born to proclaim. Truth will thunder. And the remnant will lead it.
