How to Leverage the Word of God for Your Good

About this episode

Dr. Jerry Grillo, pastor and author, joins Philip Cameron for a conversation that reframes how believers engage the Word of God — not as a comfort text, but as a lever capable of lifting what no natural effort can move. Drawing on the physics of a fulcrum and lever, Dr. Grillo explains that "leverage is when you have a minimal amount of pull with a maximum amount of lift" — and that the Word of God functions as exactly that lever in the life of a kingdom-minded believer. The discussion moves through kingdom theology versus religious attendance, the distinction between "hosting" the kingdom and merely attending a church service, and the meaning of "due season" in Galatians 6:9. Dr. Grillo unpacks the Greek and Hebrew roots of the word "due," revealing it carries the idea of perpetuity — something already belonging to you, waiting to be released. He also draws on Deuteronomy 29:29 to distinguish revelation from knowledge, arguing that "revelation is divine permission" and that ancient truth made new is what unlocks breakthrough. Dr. Grillo is the author of multiple books including Pray for Rain, Live Big Dream Big Be Big, and Survive to Thrive, all available on Amazon. To connect with his ministry, visit jerrygrillocom.

Quotes worth sharing

The kingdom of God doesn't lean. The kingdom of God stands. We don't lean left. We don't lean right. We stand. We stand. We stand for the kingdom. We stand for truth. We stand for freedom. We stand for power. We stand for prosperity. We don't have to lean.

Dr. Jerry Grillo

The lever is the Word. Jesus is the Word. The lever is the Word. The pivotal point to that lever is the Holy Spirit. So when I know how to use the Word and the Spirit against the physical realms of the earth, you can lift money. I can pull on the Word and I can pull with a minimum amount of effort. But the Word and the Spirit give me a maximum amount of lift.

Dr. Jerry Grillo

Don't lose your spirit. Don't give up the spirit side. Don't become spiritless when it's time to lift heavy. For you shall reap in due season. And so what precedes due season is weariness, where hell fights you physically, trying to break you spiritually. Because if he kills the giver in me, he's won.

What's Discussed

Dr. Jerry Grillo, pastor and author based in Hickory, North Carolina, teaches Philip Cameron about kingdom leverage — the principle that the Word of God, combined with the Holy Spirit, functions as a lever and fulcrum capable of lifting assignments too large for natural ability. He distinguishes between attending church as an event and actively hosting the kingdom. Referencing Galatians 6:9, he explains that "due season" weariness is spiritual, not physical — hell attacks the spirit to prevent breakthrough. Drawing on Deuteronomy 29:29, he defines revelation as "divine permission" and ancient truth made new. He closes by challenging believers to shift from believing "for" a miracle to believing "from" it — because in kingdom perpetuity, it already belongs to them.

Intro

Philip:Hey, welcome to Daily Faith. My name is Philip Cameron. As you know, those that watch us regularly will know that we are part of a mission outreach that's been involved for 35 years. We've been caring for orphans, and for the last 20 odd years we've been helping girls avoid being trafficked.
Philip:We have a beautiful place called Vara Village in Moldova. One of the main trafficked centers of the world is Moldova, and we've got this incredible place called Vara Village where, instead of them being put on the street, they come to live in that village. And there they're taught the gospel, to share with Jesus. They go back to school,
Philip:and these kids have turned into the most amazing missionaries this last year. They've been involved primarily in the work in Ukraine. We have a home in Ukraine. We've had one for six years. Long before there was a war in Ukraine, we had a home there. And so our kids in Ukraine,
Philip:and also from Moldova, have been heavily involved in outreach and caring for people and loving people. And most recently they've just come from Turkey. My son Andrew went over there and led a team. All the kids you're about to see
Philip:in this video were orphans. When I found them, I literally found them lost and hopeless in orphanages. And they now run the ministry. Every one of the house parents of the village in Vara Village, every house parent was once an orphan until Jesus allowed us to come and get
Philip:them out of that mess. And they just sent me this morning — literally, I got a video from the most recent trip they had to Turkey. As you know, there's been a horrendous earthquake there. 60,000 is the official number, and yet one of the phone companies said they lost 300,000 people off their
Philip:phone system in one day. So you can put the numbers together to let you know how many folk have died. And our kids went there, drove all the way from Moldova to Romania, to Bulgaria, all the way down to Turkey, right down almost to the Syrian border, and shared hope and love in Jesus.
Philip:And supplies. Watch this. They just sent this today.
Philip:We helped a couple — a pastor and his wife — and they received boxes from Operation Blessing, but they had no means by which they could carry the boxes to people in need. And we were able to provide them with a van. So if you watch that last clip of that video, that was us delivering Operation Blessing boxes because they had no way to do it.
Philip:And we were delighted to do it for them. But since that video was taken, we've helped them get a van that they can bring. And what's happening is the Muslim folk that they're caring for are coming back to them and saying, how come you're loving us? Tell us more about Jesus. And they say, we need a van to bring these folk that are interested in the Lord to church.
Philip:So in the last few days we've been able to send them the money to get them the van they need to be missionaries to the Muslims in Turkey. If you weren't there but you gave to make it happen, you were there. And that's the miracle. And so all of those kids you see giving out stuff,
Philip:all were orphans rescued from the pit of hell. And it's just a miracle to watch what has happened. We also got a video — if you remember a few weeks ago, the Russians bombed a dam and flooded out thousands of homes. A great deal of people died.
Philip:And that same team, once it finished in Turkey, went up to Ukraine and were able to bring food and supplies and the gospel into Ukraine. Watch this video. This is the same kids doing the ministry now in Ukraine. Watch.
We have just handed out 200 care packages for 200 families in the Kherson region. Just recently the Russian troops exploded a dam — I think it's the Kakhovka dam.
It affected thousands of people. They had to evacuate — I know at least 6,000 people out of the region because of the flood waters. As you can see, I'm standing at some of the houses right now that were flooded. This whole region has just been devastated.
Besides the war that's still going on in Ukraine, they're now dealing with this issue because of the war. As I said, the Russian troops exploded a dam that caused a lot of devastation. So we are here, a week after, helping as much as we can,
providing care packages to families. We've met many soldiers that we've been able to help and give things to as well. So it's just been amazing to see all the lives that are being impacted by your giving. If it weren't for you, if it weren't for your partnership,
we won't be able to do what we do here in Moldova and also here in Ukraine. So we just appreciate you and we're so thankful for you. God bless.
Philip:The old song that says, O to be His hand extended, reaching out to the oppressed — if ever there's been people that are oppressed, those people in Ukraine are oppressed. And we have a regular feeding program that's there all through the summertime. And usually in ministries, as we are affected the same way, folks slow down their giving because they're so busy vacationing or whatever.
Philip:And right through the storms we've been going to camps, regular camps all through the summer, feeding in Turkey, feeding in Ukraine, buying vehicles for folks in Turkey, reaching out beyond our world. Because when you reach out beyond your world, you reach into God's world.
Philip:And let me tell you something, the beneficiary of anyone reaching into God's world is the person who reaches into God's world. And we encourage you to help us through the summer. I really will appreciate your help. Anything that you feel led to help us with — an offering of any kind — will help us
Philip:keep those vans running, keep those supplies being bought. We bought 200 gas stoves that we gave to families that had no way to cook food. And so it's just amazing to watch. God is moving through these orphan kids to be
Philip:God's hand extended. In a few days we are taking in 30 brand new kids into Vara Village. That's the main part of what we've been doing so far. And there's a whole new vision coming in a few weeks' time that I'm gonna share with you that
Philip:will absolutely blow your mind — what God has challenged us to do. So your help right now is appreciated. The Orphan's Hands, PO Box 25, Clinton, Tennessee 37716. Really simple. The Orphan's Hands, PO Box 25, Clinton, Tennessee 37716.
Philip:Your gift today will allow us to keep being God's hand extended. You can also go to dailyfaith.tv. There's a giving button there. You can push the button and it'll bring up a page where you can send a gift through, and that's like wiring the money to us today. And also you can go to Daily Faith — 1-833-Daily Faith — just dial 1-833 and then spell out Daily Faith on your keypad.
Philip:And you'll have a real live person talk to you about what we're doing. And I believe that God will bless you as you sow. That's how you'll reap. I am delighted to have my friend Dr. Jerry Grillo with me today.
Philip:He is a friend beyond the cameras, beyond anything else. We're just buddies. And you don't have too many real buddies in your world when you're in the ministry, and this is one. And I just value him so much in my life. And he pastors a church in Hickory, North Carolina. It's Church 180. If ever you get a chance to be in that area, you go and sit under this man's ministry — it will amaze you. And I'm just delighted to have him with us today. Dr. Jerry,
Philip:how are you doing today?
Dr. Jerry Grillo:I'm good, my friend. I love you. You carry such a heavy burden, and I'm just sitting here watching your videos thinking, God, this is what you have given this man to do for the kingdom of God.

Kingdom Stands — Not Left or Right

Dr. Jerry Grillo:I know it's not an easy task. And so the millions and thousands of people you've affected in your ministry — I wanna just say thank you.
Philip:It's been a pleasure. I love it. I love what I do. Thank you. I love what I do. And sometimes when it becomes a burden, you just go back to watch and see the glory of it, and the burden is lightened just by the success. And these lives that we're seeing change constantly — it's amazing.
Dr. Jerry Grillo:Well, you know, God's been really strong on me. I really believe we're living — you know, people ask me all the time, which way do you lean? Do you lean left? Do you lean right? You know what I'm talking about in this country?
Philip:Sure.
Dr. Jerry Grillo:And the kingdom of God doesn't lean. The kingdom of God stands.
Philip:That's true.
Dr. Jerry Grillo:We don't lean left. We don't lean right. We stand. We stand. We stand for the kingdom. We stand for truth. We stand for freedom. We stand for power. We stand for prosperity. We don't have to lean.

When God Gives a Word, Hell Gives Warfare

Philip:We stand so true. And you are standing in some of the greatest adversities. And I know — when God gives you a word, hell gives you warfare.
Dr. Jerry Grillo:That is the truth. So people always say, God, give me a word. I say, I don't know if you want to ask that. I don't know if you wanna pray that. Why? Because when God gives you a word, hell's gotta give you warfare. Because the only way the word manifests is through warfare.
Philip:Yeah.
Dr. Jerry Grillo:God will deliver us. And many of us think deliverance is easy. Deliverance is easy. God will come down and fight the gods that got you bound. But you know that God never came into the wilderness and ever got anybody out.
Dr. Jerry Grillo:So he won't come to the wilderness. He'll feed you there, he'll clothe you there. And you decide — I decide — and this is kingdom theology — I decide how long I stay in warfare.
Philip:Wow.
Dr. Jerry Grillo:Not God. I decide. And it all depends on how quick I gain leverage over my mind.
Philip:You always bring aroma to us. I never ever leave this program having you as a guest without thinking, wow, thank you Lord. And I know — pray, tell us.
Dr. Jerry Grillo:I'm honored. But you know, because we're raised — religion raises us on the comfort side of Christianity.
Philip:Well, that's a truth.
Dr. Jerry Grillo:And the kingdom is not comfortable, and it never has been comfortable. Why? Because the kingdom has to do something that fights principalities, powers, and rulers of darkness. Religion lives in the now. The kingdom is always moving to the next.

Hosting the Kingdom vs. Attending a Service

Philip:That is so true. This is why — I just, this is what happens. I just paid that off. I just bought that land. And God says, no. Now go take, go buy that. Now go believe for the — so the kingdom is constantly expanding you.
Dr. Jerry Grillo:Religion wants to compress you.
Philip:You're preaching at me. Oh my goodness. Well, I haven't talked about this and I'm not gonna exactly share the details today, but I talked to you before the program about this, right. We have stretched ourselves to bursting point this last year with Ukraine.
Philip:And then Turkey came on top of that. We bought the house in Ukraine. I mean, it's just been one thing after the other. And I said to Andrew, I says, man, I'm gonna be glad when this season ends so I can relax a while. And just at that point,
Philip:God comes back to me and has just challenged me to do something that's bigger than anything before. I'm thinking, what on earth? Let me get a break. And it seems that in the kingdom, there's no break. You're always pressing upward.
Dr. Jerry Grillo:Well, and the break is learning how to shift this stuff and compartmentalize it where you don't carry it. The problem is most Christians live for the event
Dr. Jerry Grillo:and never the process. So they go to church for the event. We've turned church into an event — attending a focus. It's about attending.
Philip:Yeah.
Dr. Jerry Grillo:I attend Elevation, I attend First Assembly.
Dr. Jerry Grillo:We are not trained on how to host the kingdom. So we know how to attend a service. We do not know how to carry the kingdom.
Dr. Jerry Grillo:And there's a difference between hosting and attending. Attending means I came to get something. Hosting means I came to focus on something else. But it's in you. That's the difference.

Leverage Defined: Word and Spirit as Fulcrum

Dr. Jerry Grillo:So Satan's not trying to attend your meeting. He's trying to get you to host him in demonic care. So the kingdom needs to be hosted. To do that, you have to understand leverage. When you lose leverage,
Philip:you lose — explain what leverage is. What's leverage? Tell me what leverage is.
Dr. Jerry Grillo:Leverage. Leverage is — you have to understand everything's about leverage. If I lose leverage in my marriage, I lose my marriage. If I lose leverage in my money, I lose my money.
Dr. Jerry Grillo:Leverage can work for you or against you. Banks can leverage debt on you, or you can use debt and leverage it and make passive income. Leverage — if you see the picture of what is a leverage — it's a stick or a lever. So you're trying to lift something yourself.
Dr. Jerry Grillo:When God gives you a word, Philip, he's gonna give you a word. And the first thing your body and your mind is thinking about is how in the world can I physically do this? So I go to try to lift a boulder and physically I can't lift it. But then I get a lever. A lever is a long stick. And then I find a rock or something to place it on — a fulcrum.
Philip:A fulcrum point.
Dr. Jerry Grillo:A fulcrum of this lever. Yeah.
Dr. Jerry Grillo:And now I can lift what I could not lift naturally. Hallelujah. Because of leverage. I have a minimal amount of pull. I got a prophetic word that just hit me — where you get a minimal amount of pull with a maximum amount of lift.
Dr. Jerry Grillo:I decree and declare right now that there are those who are going to connect into the leverage of the kingdom of God, where they're going to do less and get more. They're gonna go higher. They're gonna gain leverage.
Philip:I've always been told that if you have a long enough lever — if you can get a long enough pole — you can lift a tank. Because the leverage, the longer that pole is, the more leverage you have in lifting stuff up. So what you're saying is —
Dr. Jerry Grillo:Get this picture. The lever — the Bible says there's three that bear witness in heaven: the Father, the Word, and the Spirit. So we have to understand that Jesus is the earthly name of a kingdom word.
Dr. Jerry Grillo:So Jesus wasn't Jesus in heaven — Jesus was the Word. In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was God. So understanding the kingdom theology — Jesus became a man. Luke 19:10 doesn't say the Son of Man came to seek and save those who were lost. It says the Son of Man came to seek and save that which was lost. That one word — it's not a person. That is something man needed.
Dr. Jerry Grillo:It's leverage. Man lost leverage on the earth. The kingdom suffered violence. So leverage is the Word. The lever is the Word. Jesus is the Word. The lever is the Word. The pivotal point to that lever is the Holy Spirit.
Dr. Jerry Grillo:So when I know how to use the Word and the Spirit against the physical realms of the earth, you can lift money. I can pull on the Word and I can pull with a minimum amount of effort. But the Word and the Spirit give me a maximum amount of lift.
Dr. Jerry Grillo:And I use that. But I have to have something heavy. I cannot use the Word and the Spirit — they're not wanting to move in your life in the areas that you can perform.

Due Season and Galatians 6:9 Unpacked

Dr. Jerry Grillo:God has to put an assignment in front of you that's bigger than you. It has to be so big — this is why you need leverage. And then God says, now you need leverage. And now God is like — I'm excited. Why? Because Philip just took on a weight that he could not do.
Dr. Jerry Grillo:And now he has to wait for the pause. And now he's going to get kingdom leverage. And when the world sees him pulling on the Word and the Spirit and lifting this
Dr. Jerry Grillo:building and buying that orphanage and expanding that land — God said, this is kingdom. To me, going to an altar and dumping your stuff every week in church is not kingdom. That's attending a service. Hosting
Dr. Jerry Grillo:the kingdom — you gotta be able to carry the weight of the Word. I have a book I wrote called Pray for Rain. About a month ago I was just sitting over here going, I'm 61.
Dr. Jerry Grillo:And I know I look good for 61, but I picked up my Word and I picked up my book and I opened it up. And this is what I read: Then I will give you rain in due season. And when I sat there a minute — it's on page 69 — God said to me,
Dr. Jerry Grillo:you need to pause a minute, because rain comes normally. But when you unlock something in my kingdom, I'll give you rain outside of seasonal rain.
Dr. Jerry Grillo:I'll give you due season rain. And I was like, well, what are you talking about? He says, I'll give you leverage. I'll command the — so anytime there's rain, the heavens have to open. So here's what God was saying: when you're facing something you cannot face,
Dr. Jerry Grillo:but you obey my laws, my statutes, my commands, he said, I'll open heaven and I'll give you a due season. Now this due season comes up again in Galatians 6:9, where it says, do not be weary in well doing.
Dr. Jerry Grillo:So we know that what precedes the due season is weariness. But that weary there doesn't mean fatigue. A lot of people think, don't get tired. No, no. You can be tired. You can be physically exhausted. That's not what he's talking about.
Dr. Jerry Grillo:That word weary there is not physical. He's not telling you you're not gonna be tired, you're not gonna be overwhelmed. You can look at a task and the natural body says there is no possible way.
Dr. Jerry Grillo:That's not what Paul was saying. The word weariness there is: don't lose your spirit. Don't give up the spirit side. Don't become spiritless when it's time to lift heavy.
Dr. Jerry Grillo:For you shall reap in due season. And so what precedes due season is weariness, where hell fights you physically,
Dr. Jerry Grillo:trying to break you spiritually. Because if he kills the giver in me, he's won. The spirit is the giver. The spirit is the sower — the spirit in me. You could be watching right now from a hospital bed, and your body can't even pick up your arm,
Dr. Jerry Grillo:but you've got a spirit inside that body. And you gotta speak out of your mouth, changing one word: I'm not surviving, I'm thriving. Changing the scenario of one word, because your conversation and your thinking arrive before you.
Dr. Jerry Grillo:And the word becomes leverage. It becomes leverage. So God says, don't lose leverage. Leverage is when the spirit's in you. And you gotta stop living to be happy. People who live to be happy are never happy. Why? Because happy's a feeling. Live to be useful.
Dr. Jerry Grillo:I'm not trying to be happy today. I want to be useful today. If I find what I'm useful in, I will become happy because I'm fulfilled in being used by the kingdom of God. And so leverage, leverage, leverage, leverage.
Dr. Jerry Grillo:Philip, do — in the Greek and Hebrew both — do, when you look up the word do, here's what it means: it already belonged to you in perpetuity.
Dr. Jerry Grillo:So here's what God said: you're in a heavy moment, you're in a heavy lifting. But something in perpetuity — forever — already belonged to you. I was waiting for you to be in that season.

Revelation as Divine Permission — Deuteronomy 29:29

Dr. Jerry Grillo:I already set it up for you. But you needed that season to reap it, to bring it to —
Philip:I've often said this as I've helped churches build and stuff. I've said, you don't understand this, but in the kingdom, your church is sitting with the lights on.
Philip:You can smell the carpet. The seats are there. The sound system's on. It's all sitting there with your name on it, waiting to be released in due season. I've spoken that so many times. I said this in my own book. Matter of fact, I went and bought two copies of my own book and reread it.
Dr. Jerry Grillo:Now listen to this. Then the Holy Spirit said, you've gotta understand that Deuteronomy 29:29 says, the secret things of the Lord belong to the Lord, but the revealed things belong to man. So we're thinking knowledge, because we're always thinking on the realm of knowledge. God said, no, no, no.
Dr. Jerry Grillo:Revealed things doesn't mean knowledge. It means revelation. So here's what God was saying. Revelation is divine permission. I have secrets. Revelation doesn't mean it's new.
Dr. Jerry Grillo:Revelation means it's ancient truth made new. So the guys that invaded Normandy on D-Day — when they left those boats out in the English Channel and
Dr. Jerry Grillo:jumped in the freezing cold water with German machine guns — the one commission they had was to get to the beach. Once they got to the beach, the word came. The revelation came: get up to the top of that cliff. Once they got to the top of the cliff: go there.
Philip:And so what you're saying is, only as you accomplish the last command and the last revelation does the next revelation come.
Dr. Jerry Grillo:Exactly. So we study the Bible for what it says. Because most people are Antioch. Peter started the School of Antioch.
Dr. Jerry Grillo:Mark starts the School of Alexandria. Mark is mentored by Paul. People don't get this. Mark doesn't write his gospel till 70, 75 AD. Mark has been mentored by Paul.
Dr. Jerry Grillo:So Mark writes about the Alexandria school of doctrine — we need spirit added to the literal. Peter's School of Antioch is: we read the Bible, we take it literally. Mark says, no, we need to add the spirit to the literal and find the revelation.
Dr. Jerry Grillo:There's a secret in the passage that's ancient, to be made new. So God says to me — just, if you're watching this today, change this thought. God said to me, if you keep believing for — I said, man, I'm believing for that property, I'm believing for this car, I'm believing for that orphanage. God said,
Dr. Jerry Grillo:you'll never have it. I said, why? He said, because every time you say you're believing for it, the day you wake up you still put it in front of you because it's still before you. So I guess I'm believing for my miracle. And I said, well, yeah.

Believing From Your Miracle, Not For It

Dr. Jerry Grillo:What should I say? He said, if you want to talk kingdom, you say you're believing from it, not for it. Why? Because it's already yours. It's already yours in perpetuity. I already gave it to you. It's due season.
Philip:We are out of time. I hate to call — we are over time. I've taken off the back end of the program. We're finished by now. I'm sorry. Listen, he has got books. Let me give you the names. Live Big, Dream Big, Be Big. Decisions. Survive to Thrive. More Than Restored. Daddy, God Saved at Damascus. You need to get these books.
Philip:We're out of time. Listen, get in contact with Dr. Jerry Grillo — G-R-I-L-L-O dot com.
Philip:Get in contact with him today and order some of these books. I'm sure there's ways to do it when you get on his site.
Dr. Jerry Grillo:They're on Amazon.
Philip:They're on Amazon. Listen, we are out of time. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. I love you. You have done me the power of good today. We love you.
Dr. Jerry Grillo:Well, thank you for watching Daily Faith.

Common questions

What does Dr. Jerry Grillo mean when he talks about 'leverage' in the Christian life?

Dr. Grillo uses the image of a lever and fulcrum to explain spiritual leverage: just as a lever lets you lift a boulder you could never move with your bare hands, the Word of God (the lever) and the Holy Spirit (the fulcrum) let you accomplish things that are physically impossible on your own. The key insight is that you get a minimum amount of pull with a maximum amount of lift — but only when the task in front of you is bigger than you can handle naturally.

Why does Dr. Grillo say God has to give you an assignment that's too big for you?

According to Dr. Grillo, God intentionally puts a weight in front of you that you cannot lift on your own, because that's the only moment you'll actually reach for kingdom leverage. If you can perform the task yourself, there's no need for the Word and the Spirit to move in that area — so the assignment has to exceed your natural ability before leverage becomes necessary.

What does 'don't be weary in well doing' actually mean in Galatians 6:9, according to Dr. Grillo?

Dr. Grillo says the word 'weary' in that verse is not about physical fatigue — you're allowed to be tired and overwhelmed. What Paul is warning against is losing your spirit: becoming spiritless when it's time to lift something heavy. Hell fights you physically, he explains, specifically to break you spiritually, because if the spirit in you gives up, the enemy has won.

What's the difference between 'believing for' something and 'believing from' something?

Dr. Grillo says God corrected him on this directly: when you say you're 'believing for' a miracle, you keep placing it out in front of you, so every morning it's still before you and still not yours. Kingdom language, he argues, is 'believing from' it — because in perpetuity it already belongs to you. God already set it up; you just needed to reach the right season to receive it.

How does Dr. Grillo distinguish between 'attending' church and 'hosting' the kingdom?

Dr. Grillo draws a sharp line between the two: attending means you came to get something, while hosting means the kingdom lives inside you and you carry it with you. He argues that most Christians are trained to attend a service but never taught how to host the kingdom — and that Satan's goal isn't to attend your meeting but to get you to host him instead.
