God Bless My Brand

Have you ever heard the saying "if you don't rest, your body will force you to?" If you're anything like me, when your body has forced you to rest - it's often after great triumph. Maybe you've accomplished something you've been stressing over or you've completed a task that took a lot of energy and time. For others, rest was forced after an illness or accident. It was forced because at some point, we stopped taking care of our mind and body. Typically this isn't intentional, but it's a byproduct of a great challenge.We can all learn a lot from Elijah. He had just come off of a season of God using him mightily. From reminding a widow that what she believed was the end of the journey for her and her son was simply the beginning of abundance and overflow. To encountering God in a whisper after experiencing the Israelites abandon God and becoming frustrated enough to challenge their false god and watch God show out. And of course, slaughtering those who didn't believe - even if it meant being on the run for his life. But in the midst of running for his life, feeling overwhelmed, likely in pain and soreness - God doesn't get frustrated at Elijah for feeling all the feels. He instead sends an angel to give him what he needed in that moment - the safety of rest. God gave him sustenance and rest so that he could push forward.Could it be that God is isolating you to give you rest? Could it be that God is slowing you down so that you can hear from Him with clarity and full confidence that it's His Voice and not your own? Could it be that He's reminding you that you can do all things through His strength and not your own?Reference Scriptures:1 Kings 19:1-81 Kings 16-19

What if God is calling you go beyond what you think is possible? What if God is calling you beyond what limitations you've put on yourself and on Him? What if He's calling you to push past what happened before or what could be? What if He's calling you back to Faith and away from fear?Esther provides a great example of someone who decided to go beyond what she knew to bring God glory. She went beyond the customs, the fear, the anxiety, the overthinking and she did what she knew God placed her there to do. She was creative with her request and didn't rush into it because she was afraid. Instead, she fasted, she waited, and she went forth with boldness only given by God. Let's push beyond, despite our perception. Reference Scriptures:Esther 4-6

We're living in unprecedented times. But that doesn't mean that the same God that's provided before won't provide again. Unprecedented times don't discount God's grace, God's Word, or God's vision. Unprecedented times don't mean that God's plans don't stand. I know it may not feel like it nor look like it, but God is still working things out for your good - when you're in alignment. But sometimes things working out require rest, stillness, and a reset. Sometimes guidance requires pivoting, picking things up that didn't pursue, or stepping away from relationships or opportunities that are causing more noise. Reference Scriptures:Romans 8:26-28

Have you ever been in a season where it felt like God was withholding the rain? As we dive into James 5:17-18 and the story of Elijah—a man just like us—who prayed earnestly, and God answered. Even when the heavens were shut for three and a half years, something sacred was happening: seeds were still being planted.Elijah didn't stop believing just because there was no immediate evidence of rain. And when the rain finally returned, the land yielded its fruit—not because of the rain alone, but because good seed had already been sown into prepared soil.This episode is a prayer and prophetic charge for entrepreneurs, visionaries, and purpose-driven leaders: stop watching the clock and start tending to your ground. Cultivate faith. Plant with intention. Trust that the rain will come—but even more, trust that God honors what's been sown in faith.Let this be a reminder to shift your focus from timing to tending—because harvest is a result of both what you sow and where you sow it. Your seed is not forgotten. Your soil is not barren. Get ready—God sends rain to the prepared.Reference Scriptures:James 5:17-18

Let's dive into stewardship, shall we? Rooted in the wisdom of Matthew 25:14-30, we explore the Parable of the Talents and uncover key principles about how God entrusts us with resources, opportunities, and influence.Stewardship isn't just about managing what we have—it's about doing so with discipline, innovation, mindfulness, and clearheadedness. Whether you're leading a business, building a brand, or growing in your personal calling, your ability to steward well determines the expansion of your territory.We also have to shift our perspective on stewardship from seeing it as a hardship to recognizing it as an honor. God doesn't entrust just anyone—He gives responsibility to those He believes are capable of multiplying what they've been given. When we embrace this mindset, we unlock the ability to increase for ourselves and for those connected to us.Reference Scriptures:Matthew 25:14-30Romans 2:11

Discipline isn't just about willpower—it's about devotion. When we choose to seek His Word daily and before all else, we're choosing discipline over comfortability. When we choose to pray even when the circumstances look bleak, we're choosing discipline over our feelings. When we choose to fast even when cravings hit and certain activities look appetizing, we're choosing discipline over our flesh. Why? Because discipline brings us closer to discipleship, knowledge, insight, wisdom, strategy, peace, and so much more.Now don't get me wrong, discipline isn't easy. It takes time. It makes persistence, and it takes a daily choice. True discipline isn't about checking a box; it's about aligning your heart with His purpose and trusting the process, no matter how long it takes.Reference Scriptures:Proverbs 12:1Matthew 7:7-8

Beloved, if you find yourself standing in the middle of uncertainty, heartbreak, grief or chaos—let this episode be a gentle reminder that God's promises are unshakable. Even when life throws the unimaginable our way, He remains faithful. Even when our plans unravel and hope feels like a distant memory, He is still working, still showing up, still keeping His Word. Hold on, because what He has spoken over your life will come to pass—just as He said.Reference Scriptures:Jeremiah 29:10-14

Have you ever felt God tugging at your heart to go in a different direction? Have you ever been confronted with a dream or a vision that you knew was God inspired but felt contrary to what you were doing currently? Often the moments where God allows us to pivot feel inconvenient, uncomfortable, and even uncertain. They are moments that test our faith and our focus. But they are also moments that lead to breakthrough, healing, and transformation.We see Jesus pivot as He came to the synagogue on the Sabbath to teach and ended up healing a woman who was bound for 18 long years. He healed her in the midst of religious leaders who were so focused on what was written that they missed why it was written and by whom. Jesus was so focused on being about His Father's business that defying religious customs nor people talking about Him could side track Him. He is our blueprint as God tugs on our hearts in this season. Someone's healing may be dependent on you pivoting into a deeper prayer life. Someone's breakthrough could be dependent on you taking the leap of faith. Someone's obedience could be on the other side of your venture.Reference Scriptures:Luke 13: 10-17Exodus 20:8-11

Too many times we step out of what God desires for us to do because we put on hats we never were supposed to wear. We start pursuing when we God wanted to keep us hidden so He could bring it to pass. We start sharing when God wanted us to be silent. We start moving when God wanted us to be still. Why? Because we confuse moments of solving and surrender. God gives us the power and free will to both, but He also gives us the wisdom and time with Him to know when one is necessary over the other.My prayer for us is that we don't live life like Saul. If Saul would've waited and been obedient to the timeframe given by the prophet Samuel, his kingdom would've been set. Instead, he was hasty and tried to solve for something God never asked him to. Instead of praying for patience, he moved on what he felt was the best option because he was under attack. Don't let what you see take you out of position for your role. Play your part. Reference Scriptures:1 Samuel 13:1-14

We're living in unprecedented times. We're watching the news and media outlets waiting bracing ourselves for the worst. We're watching what feels like hell breaking lose. And if we're not careful, we'll allow the sensationalization of what we see to override what we know God can do and who He is. If we're not careful, we'll allow the master of deception (Satan) to allow fear to trump our faith, doubt to disrupt our discernment, and tragedy to triumph over our trust in Him.My prayer for us is that we remember that we have the mind of Christ. My prayer is that we remember that we can pray and receive spiritual perception, even if what God shares with us doesn't make sense to other people. My prayer is that we don't allow headlines, laws, or any distractions to keep us from doing the things God has called us to do and who He has called us to be. May you speak the Word of God until it is what you experience.Reference Scriptures:1 Corinthians 2:11-16Psalm 34:4Hebrews 11:1

Have you ever heard the saying "what you take in is what you'll get out"? While often times that statement is shared in response to our eating habits or our exercise routine, that absolutely applies to our walk with God. Sometimes we're consuming things that aren't listed as sins in the Bible, but consuming them in excess or consuming them in times where we could be in God's presence, could be pulling us away from Him. Our consumption could be a gateway to miss the intimacy that God desires from us.I challenge you this week to ask God what you're doing that could be pulling you away from intimate time with Him. I challenge to be honest with God and honest with yourself without being defensive or making excuses. Our walk with God isn't always easy, but it is rewarding - and most importantly, it's what's right. I pray that nothing gets in the way of you receiving the fullness of what He has for you. I pray that nothing stands in the way of you knowing Him more intimately, more deeply, and more authentically.Reference Scriptures:Galatians 5: 25-26

Humanity doesn't excuse our need for spiritual maturity and development. There's no such thing in God as “this is just the way I am” or “I'm not changing for anybody”. God is a God of transformation, change, and development. That includes our habits, our preferences, our tastes, our mindsets, our triggers, and yes - our pain.My prayer for us is that we don't get discouraged by what we see and allow it to stunt our growth in God. My prayer is that we don't allow the lack of progress or even regression around us to doubt God's ability to shift the situations in our lives. But instead, we renew our minds daily to receive the instruction, clarity, guidance, and wisdom we so desperately need from him.Reference Scriptures:Romans 12:2

Could it be that you aren't getting where you want to go in God because your faith doesn't match the ask? Could it you have the right words in prayer, but your backup plans cancel out your belief that He can and He will? Could it be that your fears, your shame, your doubt, your hinderance are the very thing God wants to erase this year so that you can experience ALL that He has for you?My prayer is that we become like the two blind who followed Jesus asking for mercy and compassion. My prayer is that when asked if we believe that He can do exactly what we're asking, that our response is a simple, but truthful "yes Lord". My prayer is that we no longer walk in haste in pursuit for what God has to the point of making things happen on our own. But instead, we trust God enough to wait with expectation and full confidence that He will do just what He said and do it right on time.Reference Scriptures:Matthew 9: 27-30

As we approach a new year, I pray that we don't do it without allowing God to speak to us. Often times, we plan without ever consulting to Him on what He has for us, what He wants to do through us, and how He needs us to be postured in order to walk into it. I pray that we have a posture that mimics Habakkuk's. He sought the Lord, he waited for Him to answer, and then He executed on what He said. He didn't make a move without Him. He didn't preemptively make an announcement before God spoke. He didn't start coordinating before God gave the instruction. He just waited. So before you plan, I pray you have the fortitude and trust in God to wait too. He heard you. He will answer you. Reference Scriptures:Habakkuk 2:1-2

Have you ever found yourself clinging to something, someone, or a situation, despite knowing deep down it's time to let go? Perhaps it's a toxic relationship, a dream that's no longer aligned with your purpose, or a past mistake that continues to haunt you. Letting go can be one of the most challenging Biblical practices, especially when it feels like we're losing a part of ourselves.There's profound wisdom we can duplicate in Ecclesiastes 3:1. While heaven has no end, our time on earth and our experiences within all have a time table. What do you need to stop picking back up year after year? What doors has God closed that you keep reopening? What has expired in your life that's holding you back from fully experiencing all that obedience in God has to offer? I pray you leave that in this year. I pray that you push forward and not live in the regret of what could've been. I pray you trust Him with your story.Reference Scripture:Ecclesiastes 3:1

Forgiveness is hard. Forgiveness, similar to sanctification, requires us to walk it out daily. It requires us to forgive those who hurt us to our core, both intentionally and unintentionally. It requires us to confront moments when we've hurt others and we've fallen short. It also requires us to ask for forgiveness when we don't feel like it and before we ask God to forgive us. As we approach the holiday season, my prayer is that we carry a spirit of forgiveness. That we don't allow the moments and scars that we've carried for months, years, and decades to go with us into the new year. My prayer is that we don't have huge asks of God before we resolve the areas of our heart that don't mirror what we're praying for. Reference Scriptures:Matthew 18: 21-22Matthew 5: 23-24Romans 3:23Luke 23:34

Have you ever felt discouraged because your harvest didn't match your seed? Perhaps you sowed financially, but the return didn't come in the same form. If we're not careful, we'll become discouraged and believe that our investment was in vain, our efforts weren't enough, or that God didn't answer. In this season, it's so important that we are intentional on what we sow, where we sow, and how we sow. And even understand that some seeds may not be harvested for us, they may be for others or for your future lineage. Reference Scriptures:Galatians 6:7Luke 8:52 Corinthians 9:6-7

Have you ever felt overlooked or undervalued? Like your efforts go unnoticed, your contributions are dismissed, or your voice is unheard? You're not alone. But if we're not careful, we will allow those feelings to seep into our relationship with God. We'll take God not answering our prayers in the timeline we desire as rejection or not being important to Him. The woman who poured her expensive oil on Jesus' head to prepare Him for burial was never named. The Bible never says that she was summoned to use her gift. The Bible never says that she was praised by those who watched, in fact, the disciples were opposed. But she served anyway. She loved Jesus outwardly anyway. Let us have her spirit. Let us work as we work unto God, even if no one notices. Reference Scriptures:Matthew 26:6-13Colossians 3:23-25

I know it seems hopeless. I know it's heavy. I know you're tired. But I know more than all of these things, is that God is still on the throne. I know that if you're still here, He has work for you to do. That work must carry on despite what you see. That work must carry on despite what you feel. That work must carry on despite who is in leadership, because He is who we ultimately answer to.I pray that God breathes a fresh wind of endurance into your spirit this week. I pray that you are reminded that what we see is temporary and pales in comparison to who God is and what He can do. I pray that you are reminded that in the same way that God hasn't given up, neither can you.Reference Scripture:2 Corinthians 4:16-18

Has your heart ever felt like it was too broken to believe? Ever had someone tell you that you were cold, but you can't figure out which situation made you that way? Have you ever been too pained to get excited about the possibility?I'm praying that God softens your heart. I'm praying that He reminds you that nothing is too hard for His resurrecting power. I pray that He restores you back to the goodness and not the guarded nature you've taken on. Reference Scriptures:Mark 6:45-52

The enemy's goal is to steal, kill, and destroy. The enemy's goal is to get you so distracted by what you see that you are delayed or completely abort what God has given you to do. And if many of us are honest, there are many moments where we've lost focus without the help of the enemy. We became fearful, we became fatigued and didn't rest, and we became overwhelmed to the point of no return. But not this season. We're going full speed ahead toward what God has for us. As we study Nehemiah, we see that despite the obstacles He knew were ahead, He prayed to God for favor. He quoted the Promises of Moses back to God. He continued to declare the success God promised. He remained focus on serving the people and being obedient without delay. He was strategic in his planning and positioning to stay on task. May Nehemiah be our Biblical mentor as we close out this year. May he be our blueprint as we petition God, plan, and prepare.Reference Scriptures:Nehemiah 1 -5

Have you ever felt like you couldn't get from under something? You've been to therapy, you've prayed, but you're still in it time and time again. Or maybe, you know deep down that you haven't fully healed from a situation, but you fill it with things that are good in theory (like community, working out, work), but harmful when done in excess? In either scenario, you're covering the root of the issue up because dealing with it is more than we can handle.Saul did the same thing. When it was time for him to be chosen as king amongst all the tribes, he was hiding amongst the baggage - his baggage. Why? Because even though we may feel the call, the pull, the anointing of what God wants us to do, the shame of where we are and what we carry is to heavy for us to bear alone. God wants to uncover it. He wants to heal the broken parts. He wants to give you true clarity. But you need to let Him uncover you first. Deal?Reference Scriptures:1 Samuel 10: 20-24Genesis 3:9

Hey good people! Has God ever told you no? Like flat out "no" to something or someone you really believed was yours? If so, what was your response? Was it one of anger and disappointment or was it one of trust? If you're anything like me, you've had moments where you've leaned more into the former. You've used moments where God said "no" to explain your disobedience. You've used moments where God didn't come through like you wanted as a rationale for why you've strayed away. This time, I encourage you to take Hannah's heart posture. One that chooses to bless God, honor God, serve God, love God whether He does what you want or not. One that says "yes" despite the circumstance. After all, He said yes to you knowing all of who you were and what you'd do.Reference Scriptures:1 Samuel 1 & 2Matthew 26:39Romans 12:1-2

Too many times in our lives, we settle for the something that looks and maybe feels like the real thing, but is really just the precursor. We know that it's not 100% "it", but in fear of what the consequences of moving forward are - we stay instead of fully pursuing what we know to be true. We settle for good and not the good that God has promised us. Often there is nothing wrong with the good, but anything outside of His Will will take us longer to get out of and often cause pain and a compromise.Want Bible? Jacob spent 14 years earning his second wife Rachel, whom he wanted all along, because he had a moment of weakness and accidentally slept with Leah. The Israelites spent 40 years in the wilderness because they believed God's promises up until things looked bigger than what they could achieve in their own strength. Don't settle. Don't fold. Wait on His promises.Reference Scriptures:Numbers 13-14Genesis 29: 14-30

Hey good people! This episode is definitely a double edge sword, so know I'm holding your hand as you receive what God corrected me on too. Too many of us are limiting God in both His power to bless us with more. We make ourselves small and limit what and how God can do, because of what we've seen or experienced. Others of us are taking advantage of God's grace and mercy by operating out of alignment and believing that because God is kind, that our actions go unnoticed and have no consequences.Let us take caution from the Israelites and not allow our limitations of God to cost us our position.Reference Scriptures:Numbers 13:30-33Numbers 14: 1-38

Hey good people! Do you have clear boundaries? Better yet, do you have boundaries that hold you accountable? Boundaries are difficult because they cause us to be accountable for the expectations and consequences of what happens when we or other people violate them. But they are also beautiful because they isolate us and keep us safe.The Lord, and the prophet Samuel, gave Saul clear boundaries in order to establish his reign. But Saul, like many of us, ran roughshod over those boundaries because we were focused on the timing of what we were promised more than the instructions that came with them. Reference Scriptures:1 Samuel 13-15

Hey good people! Has there ever been a time where you stopped trying because things weren't working out the way you planned? You knew that it could be really beneficial for you, but you were afraid of being disappointed again. You were afraid of wasting your time again. You were afraid of putting yourself out there again.I'm here to urge you to try again. Whether it's studying the Word with a different translation so it helps you understand the Bible better, a new hobby, applying for a new role, activating another business, or working out - try it again. Don't allow how it worked out last time to keep you from an amazing journey. I can't tell you the outcome, BUT, I can tell you that when you try it again with God - it will always turn out better than you thought it would in the long run. Reference Scriptures:Ecclesiastes 11: 1-6

Could it be that you're struggling to depend on God because of how you've been let down or hurt in the past? Could it be that your complete reliance on Him may cost you parts of yourself that are hindering you from peace and rest? There's nothing wrong with desiring to provide a beautiful life for yourself and for your family. But God doesn't need your independence, accolades, or strategy - He needs your yes.Reference Scriptures:Mark 4: 38-40Matthew 11:28Numbers 6:24-26

Hey good people! Being spiritually tested isn't for the faint at heart. Those moments, notice I didn't say lifetimes, require us to be so intentional about spending time with our Father and not allowing the chaos to break us.We can look to how Job handled his tests. The enemy did everything but kill him, yet he never cursed God. He wrestled with what was happening, but never stepped out of his righteous bag. I know it's hard to stay in the fight, but Job 23 tells us that if we continue to walk with God, we'll come out as pure gold. Reference Scripture:Job 23:10#GodBlessMyBrand #SpiritualGrowth #Entrepreneurship #FaithAndBusiness #OvercomingChallenges

Hey good people! This week's episode was a hard one to make. We're living in unprecedented times. So many of us are struggling with so many things and it makes it difficult for us to choose faith. Faith requires full surrender, while fear gives us a bit of control. Fear gives us the ability to manage our outcome, even if it's not ideal.But my prayer for you is that you glean from the widow that the Prophet Elijah asked for water and bread. My prayer is that you trust God with it all, despite what it looks like. My prayer is that faith becomes your first option and not your last resort. My prayer is that you spend more time resting in God's presence and less wrestling with what He's already worked out in His Sovereignty.Reference Scriptures: 1 Kings 16-171 Peter 5:7Philippians 4:6-8

Hey good people! Have you ever felt like your past was following you, no matter what you did? Ever had the thought "well, if everybody thinks I'm XYZ, I guess I am XYZ". Rahab, known as a prostitute, could've easily fell into that same trap and pattern when approached by the Israelite spies. She could've turned them away because she didn't want any trouble and didn't want to disobey the king. Instead, she was obedient to God - no matter the cost. She fought for her family. She reached her turning point.Is God tugging on your heart about something? Is God calling you to do something super uncomfortable that may even cause you to lose something or someone? The story of Joshua and Rahab encourages us to be strong and courageous, even in the face of uncertainty. So let's commit to turning the corner this time.Reference Scriptures:Joshua 1Joshua 2Joshua 6

Hey good people! Have you ever had a moment where you look around and you ask yourself "how did I even get here?". That moment typically is said in a bit of distress as we're trying to patch up the pieces of our lives that quickly became messy. David, a man after God's own heart, found himself in that position. What he perceived became reality and his cover up plan didn't work. In this season, my prayer for us is that we watch what we perceive. That we don't allow ourselves to fall into the same traps, the same patterns, the same cycles, but that we shift gears quickly so we don't find ourselves disappointing God. I believe in you - pass the test!Reference Scriptures:2 Samuel 111 Chronicles 22:82 Corinthians 10:5

Hey good people! This week, we're talking about the power of our decision making. There are times where we are waiting on God and it's imperative that we're still and know that He Is God. There are other times where God is waiting on us to move and we need wisdom, insight, discernment, and understanding to go do what He's already shown us. In this season, my prayer is that we mature beyond God giving us signs and seek the principles that God has shown us move His heart.Scriptures:Psalm 25:3-4Psalm 86:11Proverbs 4:5-6

Hey good people! I'm looking forward to seeing what God does in your life as you believe that God can do exactly what He said. I'm praying that this time, when you ask, you ask believing FULLY that He can and will do what you're asking of Him. I'm praying that you would no longer be limited by what you see or what you've experienced, but that you would be restored to childlike faith.Reference Scriptures:James 1:6Isaiah 41:10Matthew 11:28-301 John 5:14-15Philippians 4:192 Thessalonians 3:3

Hey Good People! Have you been tending to your garden?So many times we ask God for increase when we haven't done anything with what He's already given us. God has given us ideas, gifts, talents, opportunities, resources, etc and if we're honest, we've squandered a few. We became self-conscious about what other people would think, nervous to displease God, or just lazy. But in this season, let's do the work to nurture our garden so that we can hear God say "well done my good and faithful servant". Scriptures: Matthew 25:14-30Sermon: Protect Your Edge x Pastor Sarah Jakes Roberts

Hey good people! One of the hardest things to be is consistent. It's easy to start, it's hard to sustain. But the Word of God shows us, through Biblical characters, that the promise and the favor is on the other side of our obedience and consistency.I pray today's episode encourages and challenges you to be consistent in your walk with God and in what He's called you to do. Let us be consistent in our actions, our attitude, our attention, and our appearance. By God's grace, we got this!Scriptures: Daniel 1: 1-15

Hey good people! This prayer is for your patience. Before you decide to move to another podcast episode, I know patience is a really, really hard practice. It's often easier to act than to wait. It's easier to move forward than it is to stay exactly where you are. But there is a blessing in being patient. There's a blessing in waiting on God in the big and the small things.Micah 7:7 gives us a blueprint to follow "As for me, I look to the LORD for help. I wait confidently for God to save me, and my God will certainly hear me." Let's practice patience this week. I know we'll grow in our relationship with Him because of it.

Hey good people! Productivity requires consistency, intentionality, and disciple. This week, my prayer is that you tap in and focus up. This isn't the time to get lazy or become complacent with your God given assignment. If God trusted you with it, it's not the time to become paralyzed with fear so that you don't execute continuously. The enemy wants to stop your progress so that he can ultimately stop your petitions to God. But I'm standing in agreement with you that it's go time! Let's get to work. See you next week!Scriptures: Proverbs 5:5-6

Hey good people! This week, my prayer is for your creativity as you start identifying and activating your gifts. We're no longer playing small or questioning whether or not God has use for us and our gifts in the Kingdom. Instead, we're seeking God wholeheartedly, being a light to those wherever God has us, and being so tuned into His voice that we know when and how to use what He's placed inside of us. See you next week!Scriptures: Exodus 34-36 (NLT)

Hey Good People! Welcome to the first episode of 2024. Today, I'm praying for your evolution. I'm praying that when you're tested this time, you pass the test. Not for your glory, but for His. Scriptures:2 Corinthians 5:16-17 (NLT): So we have stopped evaluating others from a human point of view. At one time we thought of Christ merely from a human point of view. How differently we know him now! This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun!Isaiah 64:8 (NIV): Yet you, Lord, are our Father.  We are the clay, you are the potter  we are all the work of your hand.

Hey Good People! As we plan for 2024, I pray that you spend intentional time in stillness with God. Not just time where you submit your prayer requests, but time where you allow Him to speak back to you. God doesn't want to compete with the chaos of our lives, He wants to direct our lives and take control.Scriptues:"The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still." - Exodus 14:14"Be still, and know that I am God" - Psalm 46:10

Beloved, the enemy is after your rightful place in the Kingdom of God. He literally comes to steal, kill, and destroy (John 10:10) and he'll do whatever it takes to discourage and make you doubt what God has already promised to you.But this time, we're not letting the devil win. When he tries to attack our minds with thoughts of doubt, our past, even our current situations - we're fighting back with Scripture. Your spot has already been secured so don't allow him to talk you out of what's rightfully yours.Scriptures:Romans 8: 16-17Ephesians 2: 8-19

Hey Good People! I pray this episode and the Scriptures bless you as you go throughout your week. This episode is vulnerable, I may or may not have cried while praying lol. Many of us struggle to see God as our Father and come to Him because of the fatherly or familial relationships we've had or seen. My prayer is that you take time to pray for God to change your heart and show you who He is. My prayer is that you remember that God is unlike any man you've ever known. He doesn't disappoint, lie, forget, cheat, or abandon. He loves you and He wants to be close to you because He made you.Scriptures:Isaiah 64:7 – “Yet, Lord, you are our father; we are the clay and you our potter: we are all the work of your hand.”Ezekiel 36:26-27 - And I will give you a new heart, and I will put a new spirit in you. I will take out your stony, stubborn heart and give you a tender, responsive heart. And I will put my Spirit in you so that you will follow my decrees and be careful to obey my regulations.

Welcome back to the God Bless My Brand Podcast! I'm so thankful that you've been patient with me over the last 12 months as I've been away. This week our theme is "It's Going to Take More". As we set higher goals, seek God more this year, and pursue greater - this season will require more of us. More time, more discipline, more patience, more knowledge.. I'm not sure what your more is, but I encourage you to lean into your season of "more". It's worth it. Your next season is worth it. You're worth it.

Hey friends! Thanks for joining me for another episode of God Bless My Brand. This week's episode is the start of a two-part series entitled "Planning for New". We start this week allowing ourselves to be present. With so much going on in the world and 2021 on the horizon, it's easy to start preparing for what's upcoming and forgetting about what we can do to make an impact for the rest of this year. We talk about what it looks like to be present, be focused, and be tuned in to what God has left for the next 29 days. Join us next week for the finale of the series as we strategize and plan for 2021!

Hey friends! Thanks for joining me for another episode of God Bless My Brand. Today we're diving into letting go of the things that we're holding on to in fear or anxiety. Sometimes, we believe that because we're in a silent season or we're not seeing immense benefits - that it's time for us to end that season. However, often God is calling us to let go of how we've envisioned it so that He can release the strategy that we need.
