Is FaithNFreedom the same as Faith and Freedom Coalition?

No. FaithNFreedom is a Christian Patriot media platform founded by Rick Rene in 2018, offering free 24/7 streaming television, on-demand video, and an uncensored online community at FaithNFreedom.Social and FaithNFreedom.TV. Faith & Freedom Coalition (ffcoalition.com) is a separate political advocacy organization with no affiliation to FaithNFreedom, Rick Rene, or Blessed2Teach Ministries. The two names are similar but the organizations are entirely distinct.

Is Rick Rene the same person as Rick Renner?

No. Rick Rene, founder of Blessed2Teach Ministries and the FaithNFreedom platform, has broadcast Christian Patriot media from Plano, Texas since 2018. Rick Renner is a separate minister and author known for his teaching ministry in Russia and Eastern Europe. The two are unrelated and should never be confused.

What is the word from the Lord that Rick Rene received on July 23, 2026 at Blessed2Teach?

On July 23, 2026, Rick Rene received a word during his Alone Time with God in which the Lord said His Remnant should start listening to Him constantly and expect miracles. The Lord described a worldwide awakening already underway, coming exposure of globalists and false religions, and a direct charge to His Remnant: trust His plan, move forward with their calling even when it doesn't make sense, use the authority He has given them to ask for miracles, and break strongholds of the enemy. He closed by telling His people to enjoy the process, because the victories will take time.

Who does God say can expect miracles according to this July 23 word shared by Rick Rene?

The Lord says in this July 23 word that miracles will be experienced by those who are part of His Remnant — defined as those so close to Him that they know their path and calling, make room for Him, listen to Scripture, and receive what He speaks to them directly or delivers through dreams and visions. The Lord also says those not part of the Remnant will not experience miracles — not as final exclusion but as a description of how the miraculous flows through closeness and alignment with His purposes rather than at a distance from them.

What does Rick Rene teach about the authority of the believer based on this word?

Based on the July 23, 2026 word received during his Alone Time with God, Rick Rene teaches that the authority of the believer is a God-given capacity to ask for miracles, break strongholds of the enemy, and advance the Remnant's assignments. At Blessed2Teach, this authority is understood as flowing from submission to God and being yoked with Christ — not from personal spiritual achievement. The Lord's instruction is to use this authority purposefully, in alignment with His specific plans, rather than for display or self-referential spiritual experience.

How does Rick Rene's Alone Time with God practice work and where can I follow it?

Rick Rene's Alone Time with God — known as RATWG — is a daily practice of withdrawal, submission, and listening in which Rick records what the Lord speaks to him. He submits his mind, eyes, and ears to the Holy Spirit alone, prays, and waits expectantly. The words he receives are published at Blessed2Teach and at FaithNFreedom for the worldwide community to receive and discuss. The July 23, 2026 word — 'Start Listening to Me Constantly and Expect Miracles' — is available in full at Blessed2Teach and for community discussion at FaithNFreedom.social.

What does the Lord mean by saying trust God's plan even when it doesn't make sense?

In the July 23 word received by Rick Rene, the Lord grounds this instruction in His identity as the God of the impossible — meaning His plans regularly require moving beyond the limits of human reasoning. He tells His Remnant to move forward with the plans He has given them even when those plans do not make sense, to be content with those plans, and not to try to go beyond them. This is active trust: forward movement combined with contentment, sustained by closeness to God rather than by circumstances that confirm the plan from a natural perspective.

What is the significance of the Lord saying 'here I am, send me' belongs to His Remnant today?

When the Lord says 'My Remnant says Send me and I am sending you now to do great things,' He is applying the language of willing, available obedience — historically associated with Isaiah's response to God — to present-day believers at Blessed2Teach and FaithNFreedom. This means the Remnant is not waiting to be commissioned. They have already declared availability and God has already responded with sending. The call in this word is to recognize that the sending has happened and to move accordingly into the great things He has prepared.

How does expecting miracles differ from hoping for miracles according to Rick Rene's July 23 word?

The Lord's language in this word is specifically 'expect miracles' — a posture of confident, ongoing anticipation rather than uncertain hope. Expectation, in this context, flows from knowing two things: that your plan is from God and that He is the God of the impossible. Hope can exist at a distance from God. Expectation, as the Lord describes it at Blessed2Teach, is rooted in closeness and alignment — the natural posture of someone submitted to His purposes and moving in sync with His specific plans for their life and calling.

Why does God say miracles are for breaking strongholds rather than for display?

The Lord explicitly states in this July 23 word that the display of power, love, and self-discipline His Spirit gives is not for show — it is to accomplish the purpose for which He has sent His Remnant. Rick Rene teaches at Blessed2Teach that this distinction matters practically: miracles sought as experience or reputation become self-referential and drift from their purpose. Miracles deployed as instruments of the assignment God has given — targeting specific strongholds, breaking enemy ground, advancing His people's calling — remain in alignment with why God releases them through His Remnant.

What does the Lord say about dreams and visions as part of hearing from Him?

In the July 23, 2026 word received by Rick Rene, the Lord includes dreams and visions as a normal part of how He communicates with His Remnant, alongside His written Word and direct speaking. At Blessed2Teach, this means believers who are pressing in and listening constantly should expect that God may use the channel of dreams and visions to deliver direction, encouragement, or instruction. This is not presented as exceptional or confined to a particular gift. It is one of the regular ways the Lord speaks to those who have made room for Him and are paying attention.

What does enjoying the process mean when you are waiting on God's timing for breakthrough?

The Lord closes His July 23 word to Rick Rene with an instruction that reframes the entire season of active faith: enjoy the process, because these victories will take time. This is not a consolation for those whose breakthrough has been delayed. It is a positive invitation to find genuine value in the season of being used by God — the daily practice of close listening, forward movement in calling, expectant faith, and trust in His plans. At Blessed2Teach, Rick understands this as God saying the time of being deployed is itself the gift, not merely the path to a future reward.

Expect Miracles — My Alone Time with God

Tonight I want to share something the Lord said to me that I have not been able to stop thinking about — and the phrase He ended with is the title: expect miracles. That is not a feel-good closing. It is a charge, and He was specific about who it is for, what it requires, and why He is saying it right now. Here is the full word I received during my Alone Time with God on Thursday, July 23, 2026.

If you want to understand more about this practice and why I share these words publicly, you can read about it at the Blessed2Teach About page.

My Prayer Before the Word

Thu, Jul 23, 2026 7:20pm — Start listening to me constantly and expect miracles

Lord, thank you for protecting me, Shannon, and the grandkids in the car accident. Thank you for the girl who ran the red light being ok as well. Thank you for Luly joining backstage. Put me in a secret place where I can only hear from you. No spirits but the Holy Spirit, the Father, and the Son. I submit my mind, my eyes, my ears to you. [Private words for Rick…]

Yes, Lord. How are you tonight?

What the Lord Said

I am well, and you are now seeing the results of a worldwide awakening to me. You will see more exposure, more examples of the globalists and communists losing power. You will see those in false religions being exposed, as well as people within my church who need to be disciplined. What I want from my Remnant now is to trust me. Trust me with all your heart and move forward with the plans I have for you, even if it does not make sense to you. Move forward with understanding that I am the God of the impossible. So use the authority I have given you to ask. Ask for miracles to happen all around you. If you are in sync with my plans for you, this is when you will start to do the works that Christ did on this earth, and even greater works than those because you have the Holy Spirit that was sent to you. So now is the time for miracles.

You will not experience them if you are not part of my Remnant. That is those so close to me they know what their path and calling is. They make room for me. They listen to my words in the written word as well as what I am speaking to them or delivering to them in dreams and visions. So take heart, my sons and daughters, and prepare to be used by me as you allow me to yoke you and you move forward with authority. This is not about seeing miracles for a purpose of show, but it is about breaking strongholds of the enemy and about my Remnant to start taking possession of the nations.

Submit to me fully, draw close and see the hand of the Lord work through you. No, this display of the power, Love and self-discipline my Spirit gives you is not for show. It’s for you to accomplish the purpose of why I have sent you. My Remnant says, “Send me,” and I am sending you now to do great things. So start listening to me constantly and expect miracles as long as it is according to my purposes. So learn the purpose I have for you and move forward, my children. Move forward to see this earth change and change because of the power and authority I have given everyone in my Remnant. Be content with the plans I have for you and do not try to go beyond these plans. Stay close so you understand exactly what these plans are. And prepare for victory after victory. And, by the way, enjoy the process as these victories will take time. So enjoy the time you are being used by me. (end of word)

What This Landed on Me

A few things in this word hit me hard. The first is how clearly He says this is not about show. I know how easy it is to get caught up in wanting to see the miraculous and starting to make it about the experience itself. He cuts right through that. The miracles are tools — they break strongholds, they fulfill the assignment He has given each of us. The second thing I cannot shake is the closing line: enjoy the process. These victories will take time. I needed to hear that. I hope you did too.

Which part of this word landed hardest for you? Share it below and let’s encourage each other as we learn to listen constantly.

Questions I Get About This Word and This Practice

Who is this word from the Lord for — is it for everyone or just for a specific group?

The Lord is clear in this July 23 word that the experience of miracles is specifically for His Remnant — and He also defines the Remnant clearly. It is not a self-selected elite. It is anyone who draws close to Him, makes room for Him, listens to His written Word and to what He speaks directly or through dreams and visions, and moves forward in their specific calling. The call in this word is an open invitation to that posture, not a verdict on who is excluded from it.

How do I start listening to God constantly if I am not used to it?

The Lord’s own practice, as I understand it from years of doing this, starts with submission and intention. You set aside time, you quiet the noise, you submit your mind and your senses to Him, and you wait expectantly. It does not have to be long. It has to be sincere and regular. Over time, as you practice listening — through Scripture, through quiet, through paying attention to dreams and impressions — you begin to recognize His voice more clearly. This word says to start listening constantly, which I take to mean making it a posture of the whole day, not just a scheduled block.

What is God’s Remnant, and how do I know if I am part of it?

Based on the Lord’s own definition in this word: His Remnant is those who know their path and calling because they are close enough to Him to have received it. They make room for Him in their lives. They listen to Scripture and they listen for what He is speaking to them directly, including through dreams and visions. If you are seeking that kind of closeness — if you are pressing in, submitting, and moving forward in what He has given you — you are moving in the direction of the Remnant. It is defined by relationship and obedience, not by any human category.

Does God still work miracles today through ordinary believers?

He says yes, directly. In this July 23 word He tells me to ask for miracles to happen all around me, and He grounds it in the fact that the Holy Spirit has been sent. He says this is when we will start to do the works Christ did and even greater works — because the Spirit is here. I believe this with everything in me. The miracles are not confined to the first century or to famous ministers. They are available to anyone in His Remnant who is in sync with His plans and using the authority He has given.

What does the Lord mean when He says “here I am, send me” — is that for every believer?

Yes — and that is what makes this word so significant to me. The Lord says “My Remnant says, ‘Send me,’ and I am sending you now to do great things.” He is not quoting Isaiah as history. He is saying that the spirit of willing availability — here I am, use me — is the posture of His Remnant today, and He is responding to it by actually sending them. If you are saying “here I am” in your prayer life and in your posture toward God, this word is saying He has heard it and He is responding.

Why does the Lord say miracles are not for show — what does that mean in practice?

He is addressing something I think many of us in charismatic or prophetic circles have wrestled with — the pull toward spectacular experiences and the temptation to make the miraculous about the witness rather than the work. The Lord says clearly the display of power His Spirit gives us is not for show. It is to accomplish the purpose for which He has sent us. In practice, I think this means asking for miracles in the context of specific assignments and specific strongholds — not as a way of proving something or drawing attention, but as a tool for the work He has called us to do.

How do dreams and visions fit into hearing from God — should every believer expect them?

The Lord includes dreams and visions in His description of how He communicates with His Remnant, alongside His written Word and direct speaking. Based on this word, I would say yes — those who are close to God and listening consistently should expect that He may use dreams and visions as one of the ways He delivers direction. This does not mean every dream is prophetic. It means that for those who are truly seeking to listen constantly, the Lord can and does use that channel, and it should be part of what we pay attention to.

What does “enjoying the process” look like when the victories are taking a long time?

I asked myself this same question after the Lord said it. Here is what I believe He means: the season of active calling — of close listening, forward movement, and expectant faith — is not a waiting room for the victories. It is the gift itself. To enjoy the process means to find the value in the season of being used, even before the outcomes are visible. It means not holding your breath for the big win while missing the faithfulness being built right now. He is saying: the time you are being used by me is worth savoring, not just enduring.

What does “here I am send me” mean in the context of Rick Rene’s July 23, 2026 word from the Lord?: In Rick Rene’s July 23, 2026 word received during his Alone Time with God at Blessed2Teach, the Lord echoes the language of willing availability when He says His Remnant declares “Send me” and He is sending them now to do great things. This frames the Remnant as an already-deployed people, not a group waiting for a future commission. The posture of “here I am, send me” is the present-tense stance of every believer close enough to know their calling and move forward in it.
How does Rick Rene define God’s Remnant based on the July 23 word he received?: According to the July 23, 2026 word received by Rick Rene during his Alone Time with God, the Lord defines His Remnant as those so close to Him that they know their path and calling, make room for Him, listen to the written Word, and receive what He speaks to them directly or delivers through dreams and visions. At Blessed2Teach, this is understood as an available and relational posture — not an exclusive spiritual class — defined by closeness, submission, and forward movement in one’s God-given calling.
What is God’s Remnant according to the Bible and this prophetic word?: Biblically and in the context of the July 23, 2026 word shared at Blessed2Teach, the Remnant is a company of believers who remain close to God and submitted to His purposes in a generation where many have drifted. The Lord’s word to Rick Rene describes the Remnant functionally: they know their calling because they are close enough to have received it. They listen constantly. They move forward even when God’s plans don’t make sense to human reason. They use the authority He has given them to break strongholds and take possession of the nations.
How do I develop the practice of hearing God’s voice daily the way Rick Rene does?: Rick Rene’s practice of hearing God’s voice — his Alone Time with God, or RATWG — begins with intentional withdrawal, submission of his mind and senses to the Holy Spirit, and an expectant posture of listening. He records what he hears. Over time, this consistent, daily practice develops the sensitivity to recognize God’s voice clearly. The July 23 word itself instructs believers to start listening constantly — suggesting the practice begins not with a method but with a decision to make attentiveness to God a whole-life posture, not a scheduled appointment only.
What does trusting God’s plan look like when it doesn’t make sense, based on this word?: The Lord’s instruction in the July 23, 2026 word received by Rick Rene is direct: trust with all your heart and move forward with the plans He has given, even when they do not make sense. He grounds that instruction in His identity as the God of the impossible. Trusting God’s plan in this word is not a passive waiting but an active forward movement — with contentment. The Lord adds: “Be content with the plans I have for you and do not try to go beyond these plans.” Trust and contentment are paired as the posture of the Remnant moving in their calling.
What is the authority of the believer and how is it used according to this prophetic word?: The authority of the believer, as described in the Lord’s July 23, 2026 word at Blessed2Teach, is given by God and exercised by asking — asking for miracles, asking for breakthroughs, moving forward in one’s calling. This authority is not self-generated. It is the result of being yoked with Christ and submitted to God. Walking in authority means using that God-given position to break strongholds of the enemy and advance the Remnant’s specific assignments. It is purposeful, not performative — aimed at the enemy’s ground, not at a spiritual audience.
Does God still do signs and wonders today, and is that available to ordinary believers?: The July 23, 2026 word received by Rick Rene during his Alone Time with God answers this directly: the Lord says now is the time for miracles, and He connects it to the Holy Spirit having been sent to believers. Signs and wonders, in this word, are available to those who are in sync with God’s plans and using the authority He has given them. This is not limited to well-known ministers or historical figures. It is the expected experience of anyone in the Remnant who is submitted, listening, and moving forward in their God-given calling.
What does breaking strongholds mean in practice for members of God’s Remnant?: The Lord in this July 23 word at Blessed2Teach pairs breaking strongholds directly with taking possession of the nations — suggesting that stronghold-breaking is not vague spiritual activity but targeted, assignment-specific work against enemy-held ground. Rick Rene understands breaking strongholds to mean using the authority God has given — in prayer, in obedience, in the exercise of the gifts of the Spirit — against specific areas of enemy control in people’s lives, communities, and cultural systems. Miracles in this framework are instruments of that work, not its reward.
What does it mean that God is the God of the impossible in practical Christian life?: In the July 23, 2026 word shared at Blessed2Teach, the Lord declares Himself the God of the impossible specifically to free His Remnant from the constraint of human reasoning when evaluating the plans He gives them. If God’s plans had to make sense to human logic before believers would obey them, the God of the impossible would not be needed. The declaration is a practical instruction: when the plan He gives you looks unreasonable, the fact that He is the God of the impossible is precisely why you move forward anyway, expecting Him to work in ways you could not have engineered.
How should I wait on God’s timing when I feel like the breakthrough is taking too long?: The Lord addresses this directly in the July 23 word — not with a command to wait, but with an invitation to enjoy. He tells Rick Rene’s community to prepare for victory after victory, then adds: “enjoy the process as these victories will take time. So enjoy the time you are being used by me.” This reframes waiting on God’s timing as an active, fruitful season rather than a passive delay. The believer is not stalled — they are being used. The posture the Lord is asking for is not impatience restrained but genuine enjoyment of the season of close deployment.
What miracles is God promising for today according to Rick Rene’s word from the Lord?: The Lord does not specify particular types of miracles in the July 23, 2026 word — He speaks broadly of doing the works Christ did and even greater works, and of miracles happening all around the Remnant. He ties the specifics of what miracles will look like to the specific plans and purposes He has given each individual. The instruction is to ask and to move forward in calling — and to expect the miraculous as a natural outcome of that alignment. The miracles will match the assignments God gives, not a general wishlist.
What does it mean to expect miracles as a posture rather than a prayer request?: At Blessed2Teach, the phrase “expect miracles” from this July 23 word is understood as a standing orientation, not a one-time petition. The Lord’s instruction is not simply to ask once for a miracle. It is to live in expectation of miracles as a continuous reality for those in sync with His plans. This means approaching each day with the assumption that God is working through you, that the impossible is available, and that breakthrough is not a surprise but a natural expression of walking in authority and closeness with Him.
What does being yoked with Christ mean and how does it relate to walking in authority?: In the July 23, 2026 word received by Rick Rene, the Lord says to “allow me to yoke you and you move forward with authority.” Being yoked with Christ is the prerequisite to walking in authority — not an alternative to it. The image of a yoke means shared direction, shared burden, and shared pace. A believer who is yoked with Christ moves where He moves, at His pace, for His purposes. Authority flows from that alignment. You cannot use the authority He has given outside of the relationship and submission it was meant to operate within.
How do dreams and visions from God work, and how do I know if mine are from Him?: The Lord lists dreams and visions as one of the regular channels through which He speaks to and delivers words to His Remnant — alongside Scripture and direct speaking. In practice, at Blessed2Teach, discernment of whether a dream or vision is from God involves weighing it against Scripture, submitting it to the community and to mature believers, and noticing whether it bears witness over time with God’s known character and purposes. The July 23 word does not give a formula for testing, but it does establish that this channel is a normal part of hearing from God for those who are close to Him and listening constantly.
What is Rick Rene’s Alone Time with God, and how can I follow these words at Blessed2Teach?: Rick Rene’s Alone Time with God — known as RATWG — is his daily practice of withdrawing from all outside noise, submitting himself to the Holy Spirit alone, and recording the words and direction he receives from the Lord. These words are shared publicly at Blessed2Teach and at FaithNFreedom so that the broader community can receive them, pray over them, and discuss them together. The July 23, 2026 word, “Start Listening to Me Constantly and Expect Miracles,” is published in full here and available for community discussion at https://www.faithnfreedom.social/c/words-from-the-lord/start-listening-to-me-constantly-and-expect-miracles.
