About Face! — Planning 2026 with the Lord of Hosts

As the holidays fade and a new year approaches, many find themselves exhausted, discouraged, and drifting without direction. In About Face!, Nici Mathis calls listeners into the war room with the Lord of Hosts to confront the post-holiday slump and prepare for 2026 with intention, discipline, and spiritual clarity.

Using the powerful imagery of converting a cruise ship into a battleship, this episode challenges believers to stop coasting and start planning with heaven’s strategy. Grounded in Scripture, Nici unpacks the call to write the vision, prepare those entrusted to us, and live to please the One who enlisted us.

This is not motivational hype—it’s a call to realignment, consecration, and Kingdom readiness for the year ahead.

Emotional Intelligence vs Emotional Idolatry from James

In this teaching, Nici Mathis speaks directly to parents, sharing practical, lived-out wisdom on how to disciple children through everyday moments using the Book of James as a guide.

Through biblical insight, real-life examples, and actionable teaching, parents are equipped to model healthy emotional leadership and cultivate homes rooted in truth, self-control, humility, and obedience to God’s Word.

Never Have I Ever

Thu, 04 Dec 2025 17:46:26 GMT

In this episode of The Clarion Call, Nici Mathis exposes the one thing that quietly disqualifies people from deliverance: the refusal to admit or release a sin pattern. Building on last week’s conversation with Mickey Woolery and the Strongholds study, Nici uses the childhood game “Never Have I Ever” to reveal how many believers still hide behind spiritual denial, protecting the very patterns that keep them bound.

Through scripture, personal experience as a deliverance minister, and Jesus’ constant warning to “go and sin no more,” Nici shows that God cannot deliver what we refuse to confess. Freedom requires honesty, humility, and a willingness to surrender the sin that opened the door.

This episode is a call to drop the image, raise your hand, and finally say, “Lord… I have. And I’m ready to be free.”

Saved from Saul’s Armor: Not Like Other Agents

Thu, 06 Nov 2025 23:53:17 GMT

This episode explores 1 Samuel 17:38–40, where David refuses to wear Saul’s armor before facing Goliath. It’s a powerful reminder that we can’t walk in victory using someone else’s methods or identity. God calls His people to be peculiar, set apart, and confident in what He has uniquely equipped them to carry.

We’ll examine how the spirit of comparison limits growth and how Scripture warns that comparing ourselves with others “is not wise” (2 Corinthians 10:12). Through biblical insight, real-life lessons, and moments of reflection, this message reveals that true freedom and effectiveness come when we embrace our own anointing.

📖 Scripture References:

1 Samuel 17:38–40 — David refuses Saul’s armor.
2 Corinthians 10:12 — Comparison is not wise.
1 Corinthians 1:27 — God uses the foolish to confound the wise.
Romans 12:2 — Be transformed, not conformed.
1 Peter 2:9 — A chosen and peculiar people.

From godless to Godly w/ Guest: Anitial'A Ware

Thu, 30 Oct 2025 22:00:00 GMT

In this powerful and deeply personal episode, host Nici Mathis sits down with Anitial’A Ware, author of “Receiving Glory: An Ex-Lesbian’s Journey from Godless to Godly.” Together, they explore the transforming power of God’s love and deliverance — from bondage to freedom, deception to truth, and shame to surrender.

Anitial’A shares her remarkable journey of being delivered from lesbianism, alcoholism, new age witchcraft, and marijuana addiction, testifying how the Lord met her in a hotel room in Orlando, Florida, and changed her life forever. Through raw honesty and spiritual insight, she reveals how prayer, fasting, and the Word of God became her weapons of victory.

This conversation highlights the dangers of apologizing for truth, the reality of spiritual warfare, and the importance of walking daily in sanctification. Anitial’A reminds listeners that there is no sin too great for God’s grace — the answer is always Jesus.

The Fire and Forget Method

Fri, 24 Oct 2025 05:00:38 GMT

In this dynamic and revelation-packed episode, Nici Mathis and guest Someta Bazile introduce The Fire and Forget Method—a divine strategy for praying the Word of God with precision, authority, and trust. Inspired by the modern Javelin anti-tank weapon system that “locks on and doesn’t miss,” this teaching unveils how believers can release Word-based prayers that hit their spiritual targets and dismantle strongholds with accuracy.

Drawing from real-life testimonies and prophetic experiences, Nici and Someta share how God revealed that many prayers miss the mark—not because of lack of passion, but because they lack targeting. The Fire and Forget Method trains believers to identify strongholds, load their ammunition with scripture, and launch the Word in faith—then rest, knowing heaven’s armies are in motion (Isaiah 55:11, Psalm 103:20).

This episode also walks listeners step-by-step through the Fire and Forget Prayer Worksheet, a powerful tool designed to help you write out stronghold-targeted, scripture-loaded prayers. As you fill each column—Stronghold, Verses/Ammunition, and Prayer—you’re training your spirit to pray the way heaven fights: strategically and scripturally.

Unbreakable Covenants

Thu, 16 Oct 2025 09:45:20 GMT

In this episode, Nici Mathis teaches from Jeremiah 33:20–21 (NLT), revealing how God’s covenants are legally binding and eternally recorded in the Courts of Heaven. Just as property covenants are filed and upheld by law, God’s Word stands firm—unbreakable and unchangeable. Drawing from Robert Henderson’s book The Courts of Heaven, available at https://a.co/d/2riefll, Nici explains that prayer is not begging for mercy but presenting a legal petition before the Judge of Heaven based on the covenant sealed in the blood of Jesus.

When believers pray Scripture, they align their petitions with Heaven’s record, and the Holy Spirit—Heaven’s own stenographer—records every decree of faith. God’s promises cannot fail, and His Word stands as the final ruling over every case in our lives.

The Perfect Prayer

Wed, 15 Oct 2025 09:37:44 GMT

In this episode of The Clarion Call, Nici Mathis teaches how to pray with power and precision by aligning every request with the Word of God. Drawing from Lionheart Church’s 3-Day Fast and Daily Prayer guides, she walks listeners through the process of “praying perfectly in your known tongue” — using scripture as the foundation for every petition. Nici explains how Heaven recognizes God’s Word as legal proof, how angels hearken when His Word is spoken, and how every Word-based prayer becomes a recorded entry in the Book of Remembrance. Through personal testimony, biblical examples, and step-by-step instruction, listeners learn to write their own prayer points and legislate Heaven’s will on Earth.

The Counsel of the Lord

Tue, 14 Oct 2025 09:43:22 GMT

In this powerful episode, Nici Mathis teaches from Jeremiah 23:18, exposing the difference between false counsel and true prophetic insight. She unpacks how to discern the voice of God in an age where many speak for Him without ever standing in His presence. Drawing from the interlinear Hebrew breakdown, Nici reveals how the word “hear” (שָׁמַע — shama‘) means more than sound—it means to perceive, to see, and to be seen.

Listeners will discover that hearing God is not passive—it’s prophetic perception that opens spiritual sight. Through comparing the NKJV and NLT translations, she highlights that godly counsel requires both position and compassion—to stand before Him and to care enough to listen. This episode challenges believers to move from assumption to alignment, from noise to intimacy, and to posture themselves daily in the Lord’s presence to receive His secret counsel.

📖

Ungodly Counsel Part 2

Mon, 13 Oct 2025 09:50:17 GMT

In this continuation of “Ungodly Counsel,” Nici Mathis unpacks how to silence, discern, and dismantle the wrong voices influencing your decisions. Drawing from Psalm 1:1–3, John 10:27, and Romans 12:2, she explains that every believer must learn to test what they hear — whether it’s divine, human, or demonic in origin. Through scriptural insight and practical deliverance principles, Nici exposes how ungodly counsel enters through the ear gate, forms word covenants, and subtly leads to confusion, fear, and stagnation.

Listeners are challenged to recognize the fruit of every voice, repent for ungodly agreements, and replace wrong reasoning with the truth of God’s Word. Nici closes with a prayer of renunciation and renewal, teaching that divine wisdom can only flourish when believers stop feeding on demonic reasoning.

Ungodly Counsel: What Voice Do You Choose??

Sun, 12 Oct 2025 09:53:11 GMT

In this eye-opening devotional, Nici Mathis dives deep into Psalm 1:1–3 and John 10:1–5, teaching how the voices we entertain—friends, family, culture, or even our own emotions—can either anchor us in truth or lead us away from God’s plan. Using the Hebrew interlinear concordance from the Blue Letter Bible, Nici breaks down key words like counsel (ʿētsāh), ungodly (rāshāʿ), and meditate (hāgāh) to reveal the spiritual progression from walking to standing to sitting under ungodly influence.

Through biblical examples like Eve and the serpent, Rehoboam and his peers, Job’s wife, Peter’s misplaced compassion, and the spies in the wilderness, she shows how wrong voices produce wrong fruit. In contrast, the right counsel—God’s Word—roots us like trees planted by living water.

Nici challenges listeners to discern every conversation, renounce unholy agreements, and train their ears to recognize the Shepherd’s true tone amidst the noise of life.

The Test

Sat, 11 Oct 2025 09:50:57 GMT

In this episode, Nici Mathis teaches how obedience is God’s test of trust. Through the stories of Gideon, Peter, and the widow at Zarephath, we see that every divine instruction reveals what’s in our hearts and positions us for breakthrough. When you obey even when it’s uncomfortable, God turns reduction into victory, repetition into revelation, and scarcity into supply.

Dismissive

Sat, 11 Oct 2025 09:49:42 GMT

In this heartfelt 5AM devotional, Nici Mathis unpacks how subtle pride can show up through dismissiveness—those small shrugs, sighs, and “whatever” moments that send away what Heaven sent to sanctify us. Building from her own story of brushing off her husband’s gentle reminder, she shows how easily we can dismiss the Holy Spirit the same way.

Through wisdom from Dr. Emerson Eggerichs’ Cracking the Communication Code, Nici reveals how the “dismiss and withdraw” cycle destroys intimacy, not only in marriage but in our relationship with God. Using fresh biblical examples like Hagar, Martha, the Rich Young Ruler, Balaam, and Peter, she shows how pride often hides behind politeness and experience.

Listeners are challenged to stop editing divine instruction for comfort and to honor God’s voice even when it comes through familiar vessels.

Key Scriptures:

Ephesians 5:22–25
Genesis 16 & 21
Luke 10:38–42

Read it All Before: Hidden Pride Exposed

Fri, 10 Oct 2025 10:07:09 GMT

In this devotional episode, Nici Mathis confronts the subtle form of pride that hides behind familiarity with Scripture. She shares how she almost skipped Tiffany Haynes’ Blue Letter Bible lesson — thinking she already knew it — until the Holy Spirit revealed how easily experience can turn into arrogance.

Through examples like Naaman, Jonah, Saul, and the people of Jesus’ hometown, Nici uncovers how pride, assumption, and stubbornness cause believers to miss fresh revelation. She challenges listeners to slow down, stay teachable, and allow God to show them new truth in old verses.

Key Scriptures (NLT):

Proverbs 16:18 • 1 Corinthians 8:2 • Hebrews 4:7 • Hebrews 4:12 • John 1:1 • John 16:12–13 • Psalm 119:18 • Mark 6:1–6 • 2 Kings 5:10–14 • Jonah 1–4 • 1 Samuel 15:13–23 • Isaiah 55:8–9 • Luke 24:25–27 • Psalm 25:9 • Matthew 13:52

The Devil’s Mouthpiece

Thu, 09 Oct 2025 10:29:56 GMT

In this heartfelt and fiery conversation, host Nici Mathis and guest Someta Bazile expose one of the enemy’s oldest traps—using our own words as his weapon. Together they walk through Proverbs 18:19-22, Matthew 12:36-37, and James 3:5-6, revealing how the tongue can build or burn, bless or curse, heal or wound.

Someta shares a transparent testimony of learning how her words—especially toward her husband and children—were shaping the spiritual climate of her home. Nici adds deliverance insight and personal revelation, describing how God opened her eyes to see demons assigned by her careless speech. Both women lead listeners in repentance and renewal, showing how faith-filled words can break cycles of death and release life, favor, and peace.

This episode is a wake-up call to guard your mouth, renounce word curses, and let your voice become a trumpet for Heaven instead of a mouthpiece for hell.

Key Scriptures:

Proverbs 18:19-22 • Matthew 12:36-37 • James 3:5-6 • Ephesians 4:29 • Job 2:9-10 • Isaiah 6:6-7 • 2 Corinthians 2:11 • Psalm 19:14

JR Demons: Spiritual Growth Principles for Children

Wed, 08 Oct 2025 10:16:02 GMT

In this powerful Clarion Call teaching, host Nici Mathis asks the piercing question: “What does your child’s Bible study plan look like—and are you relying on Children’s Church to train them?” Drawing from Deuteronomy 6, Nici reminds parents that spiritual training begins in the home.

Through the Fantastic Four review—discipline, study, spiritual diet, and consistency—she teaches how to build a daily regimen that trains children as spiritual warriors, not spectators. Using examples like Samuel, Josiah, and Jesus at twelve, Nici unpacks the age of accountability and shows that there are no “junior demons”—only untrained believers.

Parents are challenged to raise children who can hear God’s voice, wield the Word, and walk in holiness. When the enemy attacks early, our children must already be equipped with prayer, obedience, and Scripture as their sword.

Deuteronomy 6:6–9
Proverbs 22:6

The Fantastic 4

Tue, 07 Oct 2025 09:54:36 GMT

In this 5AM devotional, host Nici Mathis challenges listeners to develop a spiritual and physical regiment that strengthens the whole person—body, mind, and spirit. Drawing from her personal journey of discipline, she introduces The Fantastic 4: physical discipline, spiritual review, consistent study, and obedient living.

Using examples from her own life and scripture, Nici emphasizes that revelation without regimen produces weakness. True strength in the Kingdom comes from consistency—working out the body as a temple, detoxing the soul from carnal habits, feeding the spirit with daily Word study, and walking in obedience to carry God’s mantle with endurance.

Deuteronomy 17:18–20

Pandora’s Box

Mon, 06 Oct 2025 00:47:09 GMT

In this powerful continuation of “Taking Candy from a Baby,” host Nici Mathis exposes how unchecked carnality opens the door to compromise, counterfeit spirituality, and “strange fire.” Drawing from the story of Nadab and Abihu in Leviticus 10, this episode warns against mixing Christianity with pagan, New Age, or metaphysical practices that God has forbidden. Through Scripture and sobering modern examples, Nici reveals how curiosity without consecration leads believers from fleshly living to rebellion and destruction.

Listeners are challenged to close every “Pandora’s box” of mixture in their lives, purify their worship, and return to a life of holiness, obedience, and reverence for the fire that comes only from God.

Scripture References:

Leviticus 10:1–3; Deuteronomy 12:29–31; 1 Corinthians 3:1–3; Galatians 5:16–21; 2 Corinthians 6:14–18; Romans 12:2; 1 Samuel 15:23; Psalm 24:3–4

Taking Candy from a Baby

Sat, 04 Oct 2025 09:51:30 GMT

In this episode of The Clarion Call, Nici Mathis confronts the danger of spiritual junk food and the trap of carnality. Drawing from Colossians 2:6–7, 1 Corinthians 3:1–4, and 1 Peter 2:1–5, she unpacks the difference between being fleshy (human weakness) and fleshly/carnal (choosing to live by the flesh). Using personal stories, scripture, and quotes, Nici challenges believers to move from milk to meat, resist immaturity, and be built up in Christ.

Scripture References:

Lady in Waiting

Fri, 03 Oct 2025 09:45:20 GMT

In this episode of The Clarion Call, Nici Mathis teaches on the posture of waiting on God with precision obedience. Through the stories of the wedding at Cana (John 2), Jesus’ timing at the Festival of Tabernacles (John 7), and the raising of Lazarus (John 11), we see that delay is not denial—it’s divine strategy. Mary’s faith at Cana, Jesus’ refusal to move outside His Father’s timing, and the miracle of Lazarus all reveal that obedience to God’s exact instructions brings forth His glory in due season.

Nici reminds us that being a “lady in waiting” is not passive. Waiting means worshiping, aligning with His timing, investing in obedience, and taking our place in the miracle. When we fill our jars to the brim, roll away stones of unbelief, and resist false starts, God shows up with the best wine, resurrection life, and multiplied glory.

Scriptures Referenced:

John 2:1–11 (Wedding at Cana – water to wine)
John 7:1–10 (Jesus and timing at the festival)
John 11:1–44 (Raising of Lazarus)
Proverbs 3:5–6 (Acknowledging the Lord in all ways)
Isaiah 30:18 (Blessed are those who wait)
Psalm 27:14 (Wait patiently for the Lord)
Habakkuk 2:3 (The vision will surely come)
James 1:2–4 (Endurance through testing)
Matthew 4; Luke 4 (Temptation of Jesus – resisting pressure)
Ezekiel 3 (Not afraid of their faces)

Takeaway: Delay is often God’s love in disguise, aligning us with His timing, refining our obedience, and multiplying His glory.

Follow the Instructions

Thu, 02 Oct 2025 10:04:49 GMT

In this episode of The Clarion Call, Nici Mathis shares a sobering reminder that obedience to God is not optional—it is the pathway to healing, deliverance, and breakthrough. Using the story of Naaman in 2 Kings 5, Nici unpacks how pride, excuses, and partial obedience can keep us from experiencing the fullness of God’s promises. Naaman wanted healing his way, but transformation only came when he humbled himself and followed the instructions exactly as God gave them.

Listeners are challenged to examine where they may be resisting God’s voice—whether in forgiving, repenting, waiting, giving, or stepping out in faith. Every command carries a promise, and every instruction carries an outcome.

Scriptures Referenced:

Proverbs 3:5–7
Proverbs 12:1
2 Kings 5:1–19
Philippians 2:13
1 Corinthians 10:13

Real Recognizes Real

Wed, 01 Oct 2025 09:45:06 GMT

In this episode of The Clarion Call, host Nici Mathis continues the deep dive into identity, exposing the traps that keep us living under counterfeit labels. Through personal testimony and scripture, Nici shares her own journey of heartbreak, betrayal, and rediscovering who she was in Christ when God gave her a new name.

From Leah’s rejection, to Hagar’s abandonment, the Samaritan Woman’s shame, Mary Magdalene’s false labels, Hannah’s barrenness, and the Woman with the Issue of Blood’s isolation, this episode reveals how God rewrote their stories—and how He’s still rewriting ours.

Listeners are challenged to renounce counterfeit IDs of rejection, shame, and past mistakes, and embrace Heaven’s proof of identity: sealed by the Spirit, purchased by the blood, and rooted in the Word.

Counterfeit IDs vs Kingdom Identity

Tue, 30 Sep 2025 09:52:41 GMT

In this live teaching of The Clarion Call, host Nici Mathis confronts the subtle identity traps the enemy uses to steal our God-given identity. From feelings and job titles to appearances, past mistakes, and comparison, these counterfeits may look convincing, but they lack Heaven’s seal.

Through personal testimony, scripture, and deliverance prayer, Nici exposes these traps as “counterfeit IDs” and leads listeners into the truth of who they are in Christ. True identity isn’t rooted in shifting emotions, achievements, or outward image, but in the blood of Jesus, the seal of the Spirit, and the Word of God.

✨ Check your license—are you carrying a counterfeit ID, or Heaven’s proof of identity?

Proof of Identity

Mon, 29 Sep 2025 09:45:22 GMT

In this upcoming live teaching of The Clarion Call, host Nici Mathis unpacks what a driver’s license can teach us about our true identity in Christ. Just as a license verifies your name, photo, birthdate, address, signature, and authority to operate, the believer carries spiritual credentials that prove who we are and whose we are.

From the new name given to us by God, to being conformed into Christ’s image, to our eternal citizenship in heaven, every part of our spiritual “ID” carries Kingdom authority and the seal of the Holy Spirit. Unlike earthly documents, this identity never expires, cannot be counterfeited, and is backed by Heaven itself.

Listeners will be challenged to stop living under expired labels of fear, shame, or doubt and step fully into their proof of identity as sons and daughters of God.

Bouncer at the Door

Sun, 28 Sep 2025 09:45:54 GMT

In this powerful teaching from The Clarion Call, host Nici Mathis unpacks the believer’s responsibility to guard their heart and spirit like a bouncer at the door. Every thought, emotion, and relationship that knocks for entry must be checked against the Word of God. If it doesn’t carry the credentials of truth and peace, it doesn’t get in.

Drawing from Francis Frangipane’s book The Three Battlegrounds (https://www.amazon.com/Three-Battlegrounds-Francis-Frangipane/dp/1886296805), Nici explains how the enemy first gains a foothold through unchecked thoughts or offenses. Left unchallenged, these footholds become strongholds and eventually bondage. Using practical examples and biblical insights, she emphasizes the importance of discernment, guarding associations, and destroying strongholds before they take root.

Listeners will be challenged to step into their God-given role as gatekeepers—actively resisting the enemy, guarding unity in the church, and tearing down lies with the truth of God’s Word.

✨ You are the bouncer at the door of your spirit. Guard it well.

ID Please

Sat, 27 Sep 2025 10:08:17 GMT

In this powerful installment of The Clarion Call, Nici Mathis challenges listeners to examine their true spiritual identity. Using a travel story as a metaphor, she draws parallels between presenting valid identification at an airport and presenting authentic spiritual authority in the face of demonic opposition. Just as counterfeit IDs won’t hold up under scrutiny, neither will borrowed faith, religious games, or shallow declarations.

Grounded in 2 Corinthians 10, Nici unpacks the reality of spiritual battlegrounds—the mind, the church, and heavenly places—while exposing how the enemy builds strongholds through lies, fear, and doubt. With wisdom from Francis Frangipane’s The Three Battlegrounds (available at https://a.co/d/0FdmnTw), she equips believers with practical strategies: capturing thoughts, replacing lies with truth, and wielding scripture aloud as a weapon. The call is clear—when the Spirit says “ID, please,” will you be found in Christ, walking in His blood-bought authority, or caught with a counterfeit?

Running at Giants

Fri, 26 Sep 2025 09:38:17 GMT

In this episode of The Clarion Call, Nici Mathis answers a listener’s question: “How do you overcome doubt and fear?” Sharing how the Holy Spirit led her to read through the Bible by identifying with every villain instead of every hero, Nici unpacks the power of transparency, reflection, repentance, and God’s Word.

She reveals how facing the “Goliaths” inside—pride, doubt, intimidation, insecurity, fear of man—equips us to run boldly at the giants outside. Through journaling, confession, and declaring scripture, she shows how God’s Word heals hidden parts of the heart and strengthens us to walk in victory.

Pon de Replay

Thu, 25 Sep 2025 09:42:06 GMT

In this episode of The Clarion Call, host Nici Mathis brings the Fear Over Faith mini-series to a close with a powerful blend of prayer, testimony, and deliverance. From her own journey of overcoming timidity and intimidation, Nici shares how God used motherhood, marriage, mentorship, and His Word to transform her into a bold, unashamed warrior for the Kingdom.

Through her testimony of witnessing deliverance for the first time, Nici illustrates how fear can enter through the “eye gates” when we see or experience things in moments of vulnerability. But she also shows how Jesus delivers us when we bring those fears to Him in childlike faith. With biblical insights into King Saul’s downfall and the tormenting spirit he opened himself up to, the episode warns against doing things “afraid” and instead calls listeners to renounce fear completely.

Nici closes by leading listeners through a prayer of repentance, renunciation, and infilling of the Holy Spirit—reminding us that perfect love casts out fear and that we overcome by the blood of the Lamb and the word of our testimony.

Fear Over Faith

Wed, 24 Sep 2025 09:43:16 GMT

In this episode of The Clarion Call, Nici Mathis digs into the truth that fear is not just a feeling—it’s a spirit. Fear and faith both grow through meditation, and what we choose to dwell on shapes our reality.

Nici shares how fear operates like counterfeit faith, producing outcomes just as faith does. She warns against feeding fear through horror films, negative confessions, and anxious imaginations. Instead, believers are called to guard their thoughts and tongues, fixing their minds on what is true, pure, and praiseworthy (Philippians 4).

With real-life examples and a listener’s question about demons, Nici reminds us that our authority over unclean spirits is not based on feelings but on the Word of God. Believers carry the name and the blood of Jesus, and demons must obey.

The message closes with a call to action: break agreement with fear, resist the enemy, and fill your heart with God’s Word until faith, not fear, comes out when life squeezes you. Perfect love casts out all fear.

Paralyzed

Tue, 23 Sep 2025 09:47:10 GMT

In this live devotional episode of The Clarion Call, host Nici Mathis confronts the spirit of fear and its paralyzing grip on the lives of believers. Fear is not merely an emotion—it is a spirit that immobilizes, delays obedience, and keeps us from walking in freedom.

Nici unpacks 2 Timothy 1:7, reminding listeners that God has given us power, love, and a sound mind—not fear. Through Job 3:25, she explains how fear operates like counterfeit faith, attracting the very outcomes we dread. Fear becomes a trap, freezing us in place spiritually just as paralysis freezes the body.

The episode explores Mark 2:1–12, where a paralyzed man was lowered before Jesus by his friends. This powerful story reveals how fear leaves us dependent and unable to move until Christ’s authority sets us free. Nici also examines 1 Kings 22:19–23, showing how unclean spirits, like the lying spirit in Ahab’s prophets, are assigned to deceive and oppress. In the same way, the spirit of fear can be assigned to individuals or even families, manifesting as generational patterns of timidity, trauma, or phobias.

With personal stories and biblical teaching, Nici equips listeners to break free from fear’s grip. She emphasizes that God’s Word is the weapon to dismantle fear, citing Psalm 34:4, Isaiah 41:10, and 1 John 4:18. Perfect love casts out all fear, and Christ calls His people to rise, take up their mat, and walk in courage and freedom.

The episode closes with a call to action: confess, repent, renounce, and replace fear with the truth of God’s Word. Listeners are challenged to identify hidden fears, cancel assignments of unclean spirits, and walk boldly in God’s love and authority.

Arachnophobia

Mon, 22 Sep 2025 09:44:44 GMT

In this live episode of The Clarion Call, host Nici Mathis begins a powerful new discussion on fear and phobias—both personal and biblical. Sharing her own story of how a childhood encounter with a tarantula sparked a lifelong fear of spiders, Nici explores how phobias grow from irrational experiences into paralyzing strongholds that affect daily life and even family dynamics.

Grounded in scripture, the episode emphasizes that fear is not from God but is a spirit that attacks our thinking and steals our peace. 2 Timothy 1:7 reminds us that God gives us power, love, and a sound mind—not fear. Job 3:25 shows how dwelling on fear can bring about the very thing we dread. And in Matthew 14:22–31, Peter’s fear of the storm pulled his focus off Jesus, proving how fear shifts our eyes from the Savior to our circumstances.

Through testimony and the Word, Nici shows how God began to free her from arachnophobia—teaching her to confront fears little by little, equipping her with promises like Psalm 34:4, Isaiah 41:10, and 1 John 4:18. She reminds listeners that fear is counterfeit faith: believing for negative outcomes instead of God’s truth.

The episode closes with practical steps for overcoming fear: confessing specific fears, replacing lies with scripture, practicing small acts of faith, and inviting God’s presence in moments of anxiety. With prayer and declaration, Nici encourages believers to break agreement with fear and walk boldly in the perfect love of Christ that casts out all fear.

When You Fast

Sun, 21 Sep 2025 09:52:03 GMT

In this live devotional session of The Clarion Call, host Nici Mathis unpacks the powerful connection between willpower, grace, and fasting as revealed in scripture.

Beginning with Revelation 22:14–15, Nici reminds listeners that obedience, repentance, and holiness are required to “wash our robes.” Yet, as Paul confesses in Romans 7:18–19, human willpower is not enough to sustain righteousness. True transformation requires supernatural grace.

Drawing from Mark 9:29 (NKJV), Nici highlights Jesus’ words: “This kind can come out by nothing but prayer and fasting.” Fasting, therefore, is not a religious ritual or diet but a spiritual weapon that dismantles strongholds, aligns us with God’s empowerment, and opens the door for breakthrough.

Scriptures such as Joel 2:12–13, Matthew 6:16–18, Isaiah 58:6–9, and Galatians 2:20 further reveal that fasting is a call to surrender our flesh, deepen intimacy with God, and walk in freedom. Nici shares personal testimonies—including fasting for her daughter’s deliverance—and emphasizes that fasting must always be paired with prayer and the Word, otherwise it is just dieting.

Listeners are challenged to invite the Holy Spirit into their fasting journey, start where they are, and grow into a lifestyle of consecration.

Last of the Mohicans

Sat, 20 Sep 2025 09:46:22 GMT

In this live installment of The Clarion Call, host Nici Mathis concludes the Revelation 22:14–15 series by addressing the final two categories of those who will be found outside the gates of the New Jerusalem: idol worshipers and those who love to live a lie.

Nici unpacks how idolatry extends far beyond ancient statues or carved images, often showing up in modern life as misplaced priorities—whether in relationships, money, careers, entertainment, or even ministry itself. She connects generational curses directly to idolatry, showing how what we worship affects not only us but our children and grandchildren. Using insights from Jonathan Cahn’s The Return of the Gods and The Harbinger Part II, she explains how ancient demonic powers resurface in culture under new disguises, influencing idolatry and deception in our day.

The episode also challenges listeners to confront the lies they’ve agreed with—false beliefs about identity, health, finances, relationships, and God’s promises. Through testimony, scripture, and prayer, Nici emphasizes the call to repent of idols, renounce lies, and embrace the truth that sets us free in Christ.

Killing Me Softly

Fri, 19 Sep 2025 09:51:21 GMT

In this sobering installment of The Clarion Call, host Nici Mathis continues her study of Revelation 22:14–15, focusing on those who will be found outside the gates of the New Jerusalem—the murderers. While many might assume this category excludes them, Nici challenges listeners to see how unrighteous anger, gossip, slander, and even careless words can be counted as “murder in the heart.”

Drawing from Matthew 5:21–22 and 1 John 3:15, she unpacks how unchecked anger opens the door to the enemy, giving footholds to wrath, rage, and ultimately destruction. Through personal testimonies as a mom, minister, and believer, Nici illustrates how anger can spiral from thoughts into actions, just as with Cain and Abel in Genesis 4.

The episode also tackles the heavier subject of abortion, drawing parallels between modern practices and ancient child sacrifices to false gods, as seen in Psalm 106. Nici shares her own story of verbal abortion—speaking death over a pregnancy out of fear and pressure—and emphasizes the power of life and death in the tongue (Proverbs 18:21).

Throughout the message, listeners are reminded that God’s love calls for repentance, correction, and transformation. With prayer and deliverance, we can break agreement with the spirit of murder, walk in love, and bear good fruit for eternal life.

Who Told You That Was OK

Thu, 18 Sep 2025 09:47:52 GMT

In this episode of The Clarion Call, host Nici Mathis continues the Revelation 22:14–15 study, breaking down one of the most difficult categories of those who will be found outside the gates of the New Jerusalem—the sexually immoral.

Through scripture, testimony, and teaching, Nici exposes how culture has normalized behaviors that God’s Word calls sin. From fornication and adultery to pornography, masturbation, and lustful thoughts, she challenges listeners with the sobering question: “Who told you that was OK?”

Using 1 Corinthians 6:18–20, Matthew 5:27–30, Hebrews 13:4, and Galatians 5:19–21, she unpacks God’s definition of sexual immorality versus society’s. Additional passages such as Genesis 34 (Dinah’s defilement), 2 Samuel 11 (David and Bathsheba), Romans 1:26–27 (unnatural passions), 1 Corinthians 7 (marriage covenant and purity), and Matthew 5:28 (lust = adultery) provide deeper biblical grounding.

Drawing from resources like Every Woman’s Battle by Shannon Ethridge and Jonathan Cahn’s Return of the Gods, she reveals how modern struggles with lust, pornography, gender confusion, and sexual compromise echo the ancient pagan gods of Ishtar and Molech, who thrived on immorality and child sacrifice.

This episode is not just about conviction—it’s a call to repentance, sanctification, and deliverance. Nici points listeners to practical tools for walking in purity: accountability, prayer, fasting, and resources like Lionheart Church’s teaching on sexual addiction.

The charge is clear: wash your robes, renounce cultural lies, and choose holiness now—so that you will be found inside the city, not standing outside when the gates close.

Meet Me Outside

Wed, 17 Sep 2025 09:41:52 GMT

In this convicting message from The Clarion Call, host Nici Mathis teaches from Revelation 22:14–15, where scripture contrasts those who wash their robes and enter the New Jerusalem with those left outside—dogs, sorcerers, idolaters, the immoral, and all who love deception.

Nici unpacks what it means to “wash our robes” through obedience to God’s commands (1 John 2:1–5) and warns against returning to sin like a dog to its vomit. She traces examples of sorcery in scripture—from Pharaoh’s magicians in Exodus to Simon the sorcerer in Acts 8—revealing how occult practices, idolatry, and counterfeit spirituality are still alive today in horoscopes, crystals, sage, and new-age trends.

This episode calls believers to renounce compromise, break ungodly covenants, and tear down modern pagan shrines in their lives. With urgency and love, Nici reminds listeners that salvation is not willpower but the cleansing blood of Jesus—and that only those who remain washed and obedient will hear, “Well done, good and faithful servant.”

The Lost Scroll

Tue, 16 Sep 2025 09:45:29 GMT

In this live teaching, host Nici Mathis opens 2 Chronicles 34 to explore the story of King Josiah and the rediscovery of God’s Word. At just sixteen, Josiah began seeking the Lord; by twenty-six, he was cleansing the land of idols and repairing the temple. When the Book of the Law was found and read aloud, conviction fell, leading to repentance, covenant renewal, and national reformation.

Nici challenges listeners to see themselves in Josiah’s story: What idols need to be torn down in our lives? What areas of disobedience need to be repented of? What “lost scrolls” have we ignored in God’s Word? With passionate teaching and practical application, this episode emphasizes the importance of sanctification, cleansing our temples, and walking in obedience—not just in moments of inspiration, but with consistent discipline that transforms lives and cultures.

She also references Jonathan Cahn’s book Return of the Gods, which reveals how ancient idols and spiritual strongholds have re-emerged in modern culture, echoing Josiah’s urgent call to purify the land. Together, scripture and prophetic insight serve as a sobering reminder that the battle against idolatry is as real today as it was in Josiah’s time.

Dirty Laundry

Tue, 16 Sep 2025 09:45:15 GMT

In this message on The Clarion Call, host Nici Mathis turns to Revelation 22:14 and 1 John 2:1–5 to unpack the call to sanctification and obedience in the life of every believer. Revelation reminds us that those who “wash their robes” will have the right to the tree of life, while John points us back to the proof of our love for God—keeping His commandments.

Nici challenges listeners to examine their walk, asking whether their lives reflect daily cleansing through repentance, forgiveness, and obedience. She highlights the danger of postponing obedience, sweeping conviction under the rug, or making excuses for sin, and shows how these choices keep us from true fellowship with the Father.

Through scripture, reflection, and prayer, this episode presses into the importance of holiness in a culture that normalizes compromise. Washing our robes isn’t optional—it is the preparation for eternal life with Christ.

What Grieves the Holy Spirit?

Sun, 14 Sep 2025 09:44:23 GMT

In this early-morning session of The Clarion Call, host Nici Mathis begins a new week of study by unpacking Ephesians 4:30–31 to understand what it really means to grieve the Holy Spirit. Building on the past week’s journey through forgiveness, Nici shows how bitterness, anger, wrath, clamor, evil speaking, and even negative self-talk can sadden the Spirit who was sent to guide us into truth.

With practical examples, word studies from the Blue Letter Bible, and heartfelt prayer, she explains how unchecked emotions, corrupt speech, and unforgiveness give the enemy a foothold while pushing the Holy Spirit into grief. Yet, through repentance, obedience, and choosing to walk in love, believers can guard their hearts, renew their minds, and produce the fruit of the Spirit.

This episode is both convicting and encouraging—a reminder that sanctification is not optional and that our words, actions, and attitudes must align with the life of Christ if we want to hear, “Well done, good and faithful servant.”

My Big Brother's Prayer

Sat, 13 Sep 2025 09:40:52 GMT

In this heartfelt teaching, host Nici Mathis closes out a week of studying forgiveness by turning to John 17—Jesus’ prayer in the Garden of Gethsemane. Known as “My Big Brother’s Prayer,” this passage reveals that Jesus was praying not only for His disciples but for every believer who would one day follow Him.

Nici unpacks the depth of this prayer: Jesus asked the Father to keep us safe from the evil one, to sanctify us in truth, to grant us unity, to fill us with His glory, and to let us know the same love that the Father has for Him. Through scripture, reflection, and prayer, Nici reminds listeners that forgiveness is not just a command but a supernatural work empowered by the Holy Spirit—and that Jesus’ intercession for us is the foundation for walking it out.

This episode is both an encouragement and a challenge: to see ourselves in the prayer of Christ, to embrace His love, and to forgive others as we’ve been forgiven.

Learning to Pray for my Enemies

Fri, 12 Sep 2025 09:43:19 GMT

In this powerful installment of The Clarion Call, host Nici Mathis continues the forgiveness miniseries with one of the hardest lessons of all—praying for our enemies. Drawing from Matthew 5:21–48 and RT Kendall’s Total Forgiveness, Nici unpacks what it truly means to love those who persecute us and why forgiveness is not optional for believers.

Through scripture, personal testimony, and a Spirit-led prayer, listeners are challenged to go beyond lip service and intercede for those who have hurt, betrayed, or offended them—asking God not only to forgive but to bless them. This episode reveals how true forgiveness dismantles bitterness, closes the door to the enemy, and brings freedom to both the offended and the offender.

If you’ve ever struggled with resentment, grudges, or the call to pray for someone you’d rather avoid, this episode is for you. Tune in, take notes, and step into the supernatural obedience that sets hearts free.

Sibling Rivalry: Exposing the Root of Bitterness

Thu, 11 Sep 2025 09:37:01 GMT

In this 5 a.m. devotional, host Nici Mathis unpacks James 4 to reveal why quarrels and divisions arise among God’s children. Through prayer, scripture study, and personal reflection, she shows how offense, envy, and unforgiveness create “sibling rivalry” in the body of Christ—and why the cross was meant to put enmity to death once and for all.

Drawing from Ephesians 2, Colossians 3, and RT Kendall’s Total Forgiveness, Nici challenges us to recognize when bitterness is at work, to stop rehearsing offenses, and to forgive others the way Christ forgave us. Like a parent grieved by their children’s fighting, God desires unity, love, and peace among His people.

This teaching is both a mirror and a mandate: to let the peace of God rule in our hearts, to walk in true forgiveness, and to pray for healing and revival in our homes, churches, and nation.

The Prerequisite

Wed, 10 Sep 2025 10:35:14 GMT

In this powerful 5 a.m. devotional, host Nici Mathis takes us deeper into the heart work of forgiveness. Building on lessons from Ephesians 2, Colossians 3, and the parable of the unforgiving servant, today’s focus is Mark 11:12–25—where Jesus reveals that forgiveness is the prerequisite for answered prayer.

Through the story of the fig tree and the cleansing of the temple, Nici uncovers how unforgiveness and bitterness create “false advertising” in the life of a believer—professing faith while bearing no fruit. She challenges us to examine our own hearts, expose bitter roots, and break agreement with unforgiveness so that nothing hinders our prayers.

This episode is both convicting and freeing, reminding us that forgiveness is not a feeling, but a decision rooted in obedience and faith. When we forgive as Christ forgave us, we align with God’s will, bear good fruit, and position ourselves for breakthrough.

Nici, The Unforgiving Servant

Tue, 09 Sep 2025 09:58:14 GMT

On Day 3 of the forgiveness journey, Nici teaches through Matthew 18:21–35, unpacking Jesus’ parable of the Unforgiving Servant. After opening in prayer and inviting listeners to posture their hearts for obedience, she contrasts the king’s immeasurable pardon with the servant’s small, ferocious claim—showing how our grievances, though real, are tiny next to the debt God has canceled for us. Nici explains why Jesus’ command to forgive “from the heart” is non-negotiable, how withholding mercy invites spiritual “tormentors” (oppression, mental replay, heaviness), and how forgiveness—chosen repeatedly—shuts the door to torment and lets Christ’s peace rule. She closes with a deliverance-minded prayer, asking God to remove torture, sickness, and legal grounds tied to unforgiveness and to restore freedom, love, and peace.

Key Takeaways

Forgiveness isn’t optional; Jesus requires it “from the heart” (Matt. 18:35).
Our forgiven debt to God dwarfs any offense against us—mercy received must become mercy given.
Unforgiveness opens doors to torment (mental/emotional oppression); forgiveness closes them.
Love “keeps no record of wrongs” (1 Cor. 13); stop tallying and choose release, again and again.
Obedience precedes peace—radical, repeated forgiveness lets Christ’s peace rule.

The Peace Treaty

Mon, 08 Sep 2025 09:59:54 GMT

In this powerful follow-up to “Ephesians or Enemies??”, Nici Mathis unpacks part two of her study on betrayal, bitterness, and forgiveness. Drawing from Colossians 3:1–15, she reveals that before the peace of Christ can rule in our hearts, forgiveness must take root.

Through scripture comparisons, personal testimony, and prayer, Nici shows how unforgiveness isn’t just a personal struggle—it can hinder revival, open the door to torment, and even block us from the Kingdom of Heaven. She shares a convicting testimony from Dominic Morrow about the dangers of gossip and unforgiveness, and reminds us that revival often begins with a surrendered, forgiving heart.

Listeners will learn practical steps to release bitterness, renounce hostility, and align their hearts with God’s Word. This episode closes with a prayer of release and a homework assignment to dive deeper into Colossians 3, Ephesians 3, and a powerful video testimony.

Key Takeaways

Ephesians 2:16 shows Christ’s death ended hostility between divided groups.
Colossians 3 teaches that forgiveness is the doorway to true peace.
Unforgiveness can block personal freedom, family blessings, and corporate revival.
Forgiving others doesn’t always mean restoring relationship, but it does mean releasing bitterness.
Revival in your life and church may begin with your willingness to forgive.

Mouthpiece of Heaven or Hell? Breaking Word Curses in the Secret Place

Thu, 22 May 2025 04:00:00 GMT

In this fiery and healing episode of The Clarion Call, Nici Mathis returns to the secret place—but this time, with a mirror. What do you say about yourself when no one else is listening? Are your words inviting Heaven’s presence or empowering hell’s plan?

Pulling from personal testimonies and raw moments—being called a disappointment, labeled a whore, and repeating self-curses like “I’m broke” or “I can’t sing”—Nici dives deep into how word curses become spiritual agreements that sabotage our intimacy with God. You’ll hear hard truth, prophetic insight, and healing instruction rooted in the Word and backed by teachings from Derek Prince, Francis Frangipane, and Frank & Ida Mae Hammond.

With boldness and compassion, Nici exposes the way internal dialogue becomes demonic footholds, challenges listeners to stop siding with Satan in their self-talk, and walks through a powerful 3-step process to break word curses: Repent. Renounce. Replace.

This episode is not for the passive—it’s for those ready to break covenant with condemnation and reclaim their voice in the seter.

When Heaven Speaks, Hush Sis: A Secret Place Conversation About Voice, Volume & Order

Thu, 15 May 2025 04:00:00 GMT

In this powerful follow-up to our conversation about the secret place being a dialogue, Nici Mathis opens up about a sobering rebuke from the Lord: “Why were you talking while I was speaking to My son?” Anchored in Genesis 3:17, this episode unpacks the moment when Adam chose to heed the voice of his wife over the voice of God—and how that same dynamic still disrupts divine order today.

With love, truth, and a splash of holy fire, Nici challenges women—especially wives—to evaluate how their voice functions in marriage and in the spirit. Are you partnering with heaven, or overpowering it? Are you building with your words, or blocking the whisper of the Lord to your husband?

This episode is a call to realignment, repentance, and restoration in communication. It’s a rebuke that heals, uplifts, and re-centers the family in the presence of God.

If you’ve ever wondered how your voice influences your home’s spiritual climate—this one’s for you.
