Dr. Matt reminds us that when we tune our hearts to hear the Lord, we step into clarity, confidence, and divine direction. As we silence the noise and lean into His whisper, we invite God's presence to guide our steps with wisdom and peace. This message calls us to live with awakened discernment so we can recognize His voice and follow it boldly.

Are you in a season where God is cutting things back—relationships, opportunities, plans you thought were His will? You're not alone.

Through Scripture, biblical examples, and practical wisdom, you'll discover: - Why God removes good things to prepare you for greater things - The five blessings hidden in every pruning season - The danger of resisting God's pruning—and the freedom of surrendering to it - How to survive “the drift” between cutting and new growth - How trust, thanksgiving, and perseverance unlock God's next chapter for your life If you've been confused, hurting, or wondering where God is in this season, this message will help you see His hand clearly, love His process deeply, and embrace the increase He's preparing you to carry. This isn't loss. It's love. It's preparation. And it's the doorway to your next harvest.

Don't let fear and looking back keep you from the Legacy God has for you. Pastor Tessa Fuller reminds us that God's promises are always ahead of us, never behind us.

Legacy isn't something we stumble into—it's something we step into with courage, conviction, and trust. Keep your eyes forward, your heart steady, and your faith anchored in the God who leads you from glory to glory.
