How to Leverage the Word of God for Your Good

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.
