In Joshua 7, Israel experiences unexpected defeat, not because God failed them, but because compromise was hidden beneath the surface. What was buried in Achan’s tent affected an entire nation.

In Part 2 of Housekeeping, Pastor Travis Greene continues unpacking what it looks like to allow God to deal with the hidden places of our hearts. Before God brings public victory, He calls us to private obedience — to inspect what’s planted around us, tear down idols, and live with clean hands and a pure heart.

In this message, we journey through the story of Gideon to uncover how revival doesn’t start in crowds it starts in the home. Before God breathes life into dry bones, He deals with hidden idols. Before He sends power, He calls for obedience. This is about spiritual house-keeping, breaking cycles, and declaring: it stops with me.

In today’s message, Dr. Jackie Greene continues our Winds of Revival series with a powerful word titled “West Wind.”

The West Wind represents the wind of restoration — the movement of God that doesn’t just bring life, but clears what has been lingering too long. Drawing from Exodus 10:19, Dr. Jackie teaches how the West Wind came and swept away the locusts, reminding us that when God sends His wind, it comes to remove loss, restore what was stolen, and make room for renewal.

Through Ezekiel 37, we see how the breath of God brings dry bones back to life, and through Joel 2:25, we’re reminded that God is faithful to restore the years that were eaten. This message is a call to recognize the season we’re in, respond to the wind of God, and stand up actively in faith as restoration moves through our lives.

In this powerful teaching, we explore the winds of God and how each direction represents a divine work in the life of the believer, from removal and repentance to renewal and freedom. Drawing from Ezekiel 37, Exodus 14, and Genesis 14, this message calls us to prepare for what God is doing now, not later.

This is a word for those who feel stuck between bondage and breakthrough. There is no Plan B, only obedience, surrender, and faith in the God who parts seas and revives dry bones.
