2 Timothy 1:7 — “God has not given us a spirit of fear…” Deuteronomy 6:16 — “Do not put the Lord your God to the test…” Galatians 6:7 — “God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.”Closing Song: Faithfulness over Fearfulness produced by Deborah OcasioSupport the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

I was created on purpose, for purposeI was sent to shine bright,  to flip the script,  Placed in the middle of culture's spin,  right when the enemy tries to claim a win.  I was created on purpose, for purposeI am the plot twist, and I don't play tit for tatMy God's purpose for me is greater than that Just when the ending looks fixed and sealed, God steps in, truth revealed. The story bends, the future lifts, I am honored to be used by God as His plot twist.Closing Song:  "I am The Plot Twist" produced by Deborah Ocasio Support the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

Have you ever noticed something interesting about confidence? The moment someone stands firmly in who they are, whispers begin.“Who do they think they are?” “She thinks she's all that.” “He's feeling himself a little too much.”But the truth is, there is a difference between conceit and conviction.Conceit says, “I made myself.” Conviction says, “God made me on purpose.”One is pride. The other is revelation.Closing Song:  Not Conceited - Convinced produced by Deborah OcasioSupport the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

Are we influencing the environment we're in… or are we quietly absorbing it.  Because Scripture calls believers something very specific—set apart.  Jesus spent time among people from every walk of life.Tax collectors. Fishermen. Sinners. Religious leaders.But here's the key difference:The room never changed Jesus. Jesus changed the room.That's the calling of every believer today.Not isolation. Not imitation.But influence.Closing Songs - Set Apart or Set Aside - written and produced by Deborah Ocasio (Release Preview)- Available Don't Mean Viable - writtien and produced by Deborah Ocasio (available on Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music and more)Support the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

We are living in a season where the world seems addicted to chaos. The headlines read like a suspense novel that nobody asked to be in, and ungodliness isn't even hiding anymore; it's being carried around like a trophy in a victory parade. But if you don't remember anything else I say today, remember this one thing: right here, right now, we need more than prayer, we need praise.Closing Song: NEW: Newly Equipped Worship - written and produced by Deborah Ocasio Support the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

This is Women's History Month - let's take a moment to remember how God has always used women to move His story forward.Not occasionally. Not accidentally. Consistently.Men don't check out or think this message isn't for you, because God called men and women to stand side by side to accomplish His purpose. Honor is due on both sides of the equation of humanity.Closing SongL Heaven Remembers Her Name - Written & Produced by Deborah OcasioSupport the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

This morning, I want to make something very clear to you about prayer and faith. Real faith prepares for what is being prayed for.Not emotionally. Not hypothetically. Practically.Because prayer is not a wish. Prayer is an invitation for God to move — and faith is the rearranging of your life in expectation that He will.And if your faith is real, if your faith is sincere, why would you not prepare for your prayer to manifestClosing song: Prepare For What You've Been Praying For by Deborah OcasioSupport the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

“The epitome of hell is on your last day of life, the you you have become meets the you you could have been.” Then she said our crowns have already been paid for, we just have to wear themThe closing song: Wear The Crown - written and produced by Deborah OcasioSupport the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

If someone were to read your life like a book, they'd notice something powerful. Every chapter that should've ended in defeat kept turning into survival. Every page soaked in tears somehow still carried hope. And right in the margins—where explanations ran out— there He was.Holding you together when you were unraveling. Covering you when you didn't even know how to pray. Lifting you when the fall should've finished you.You didn't just make it through— You were carried through.Closing song: Jesus Is The Best Thing That Ever Happened To Me by James ClevelandSupport the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

Tuesday evening, the president of these United States issued his State of the Union speech. I promise you my intent was not to touch it, to go on as if nothing had happened.  God wouldn't let me rest, and he petitioned me to present what we are living in from a perspective we might actually be missing.Closing Song : Let My People Go - written and produced by Deborah OcasioSupport the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

Good Can Be Bait, But is God the source?  All that appears good is not God-ordained.  God doesn't measure “good” the way culture, logic, or emotions do.“For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, declares the Lord.” — Isaiah 55:8Good can be the bait.But the question for today is “Is God the Source?”Closing Song - Is God The Source - written and produced by Deborah OcasioSupport the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

Thank you again for leaning into yesterday's conversation on purpose. I heard the honest follow-ups loud and clear:“I don't know my purpose… how am I supposed to know what it is?”First—thank you for that transparency. That question isn't weakness; it's hunger. And hunger always gets God's attention.Closing Song:  Every Day Starts A New Year written and produced by Deborah OcasioSupport the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

This morning, I pray that my transparency sparks something in you, something that launches you straight into your God-given purpose.When you ask most people about their purpose, they'll list their goals or their dreams. But that's not the purpose. Goals are what you want to achieve. Purpose is why you're here. Why, God created you. What is your assignment in His plan?Purpose is an assignment, not the agenda. It's given, not originated by you. It's what God entrusted to youClosing Songs - Lord Use Me and Pursuing Purpose both produced by Deborah OcasioSupport the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

Morning declaration: “I will no longer disqualify what God has intentionally designed. My difference is not a flaw—it's a feature in God's plan.”Closing Song - I'm My Own Amen Support the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

"God will not put more on you than you can bear."  That IS NOT TRUE - NOR IS IT SCRIPTURAL.   You will go through seasons when the weight on your shoulders is more than you can bear, but let your faith in God encourage you, knowing that He has a plan for your way out, for your weight to be lifted.Closing Song: The Way Out - produced by Deborah OcasioSupport the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

Alright, let me lovingly disrupt a popular slogan.Everybody loves to say, “We're all God's children.”It sounds warm. It sounds inclusive. It sounds like something you'd put on a coffee mug with a sunset behind it.And some of you are already ready to say Amen—not because it's biblical, but because we tend to think that being a child of God is automatic because He created us all, and on top of that, because He created us all with purpose.All true, however, biblically speaking, we are not automatically God's children. That may make some of you cringe, but it is absolutely Scripture.God's divine plan was never for humanity to be born into forced allegiance with HimClosing Song: God's Legitimate Children - produced by Deborah OcasioSupport the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

This morning I was to talk to you briefly about something so basic, something our mothers and grandmothers like taught us. But being adults, dealing with life, while life be lifing its really easy to stray away from the basics.Closing Song:  All Day & All Night - You Kept Me - Produced by Deborah OcasioSupport the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

 Let's talk about that very popular phrase we hear everywhere: “my truth.”Now don't get me wrong—your experience is real. Your feelings are valid. Your pain matters. But feelings don't get to vote on truth.Because here's the problem with “my truth”: it collapses the moment it bumps into someone else's “my truth.” If your truth says up and my truth says down, somebody's wrong—or truth just clocked out for the day.Closing Song:  An Inconsistent Truth Is A Lie - produced by Deborah OcasioSupport the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

You don't need a mic to be anointed.Sometimes all you need is obedience, excellence, and the courage to take your gift seriously.What you're gifted to do with your hands, your brain power is just as holy as what someone else does with a mic. And God is still filling people with His Spirit—one masterpiece at a time.Closing Song -  His Spirit In My Hands produced by Deborah OcasioSupport the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

“A feast is made for laughter, wine makes life merry, and money answers everything.”  Ecclesiastes 10:19Solomon spends the chapter dissecting:Foolish thinkingFoolish speechFoolish reactionsFoolish leadershipFoolish shortcutsClosing Song: What Will You Take Into Glory - Produced by Deborah OcasioSupport the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

Since the beginning of time, God has been in every moment of history.History is God's receipts.So today we declare:We choose to remember.We choose to tell the story.We choose to hold on to God's receipts.And we will not allow His receipts to be dismissedClosing Song: History Is God's Recept produced by Deborah OcasioSupport the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

With a renewed mind, a renewed faith, and a renewed proclamation that declares, “I want to live like I believe.” This is a proclamation if embrace will change all aspects of your faith and your prayers. Be blessedClosing Song: Live Like I Believe - Produced by Deborah OcasioSupport the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

Respect is due to everyone. But respect must never wear the mask of worship, and honor must never turn into favoritism.So here's today's heart check:Am I honoring people in a way that still keeps God first…Am I careful not to show favoritism that makes others feel less, or have I been clapping louder for humans than I've been listening to Heaven?Stay respectful. Stay humble. Stay aligned.Closing Song:  What Will You Take Into Glory- produce by Deborah OcasioSupport the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

Do not conform to the way of this world.  Don't buy into the world's trends of matching energy God called you for so much more.Closing Song: The Game Changing Plot Twist - Produced by Deborah OcasioSupport the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

Yes, we like being admired. Yes, we blush a little when someone notices. But many of us — myself included — have entertained relationships where we were only seen for the external version of ourselves. And let's be fair — we've done it too. We've looked at the surface and called it compatibility.But attraction is not alignment.That's why in the song I say:“Do you see me — I mean the real me? Not the frame, not the glow…”Because real connection requires spiritual vision. It requires asking better questions. Not “Do we look good together?” but:“Does my purpose make sense next to yours?”Whew, that's a question that will clear a room.See, Kingdom relationships don't compete — they complement. No one has to shrink. No one has to dim. When God joins two people, their callings make sense side-by-side.Closing Songs:  "Do You See Me" - "Lord, Use Me" & "Lord Just You and Me" - produced by Deborah Ocasio  (available via Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, Pandora, and more (https://music.youtube.com/channel/UCC2JOnaRg6bez2j2jlVMM5Q?si=kH8wTTPvzQ7D4kBi)Support the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

God calls us to be light to drive out darkness, to bring temperatures down in a room, to let exalt peace and make chaos stand still, to bring reasoning to disagreements, and to build bridges between what is divided. LET US BE LIGHT!Closing Song: Let Us Be Light - Produced By Deborah OcasioSupport the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

Today, we pray for strength not to fight people, but to stand against lies, against wickedness, against injustice. Strength to resist principalities in disguise. Strength to speak the truth without fear. Strength to seek justice while exalting godly love.Closing Songs: Lord, Make Us One and Live Like I Believe both produced by Deborah OcasioSupport the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

Jesus said:Matthew 6:21  “Where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.”If your treasure is the Word of God, the love of God, stop sleeping on being intentional about studying His Word, and when you hear the truth of the Gospel spoken or preached, share it with another. Be blessed.Closing Song:  Worth More Than A Million - produce by Deborah OcasioSupport the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

As a nation, we have been dealing with a whole lot, and now much of the nation is under winter storm alerts, people are preparing, watching the forecasts, and bracing for the worst. I want to say this: Preparation is wise. But panic is not. What if what we're calling inconvenience is actually an invitation?Sometimes disruption is divine.Psalm 46:10 says, “Be still, and know that I am God.” Not rush and know. Not panic and know. Be still.Closing Song:  Time Out - Go To Your Room produced by Deborah OcasioSupport the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

In times like these—when everything feels loud, unstable, and uncertain—songs like “God Is” don't just sound good…They hold you up.CLOSING SONG: God Is by James ClevelandSupport the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

The same God who walked with Abraham, spoke to Moses, and strengthened David over 2,000 years ago is the same God present with you right now—and the only God who will exist beyond eternity. And let's be honest, eternity is another concept we don't keep in the forefront of our minds either.Closing Song: Everywhere Always produced by Deborah OcasioSupport the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

You can trust God even when the system is against you. You can release what you love without losing it. You can obey God quietly and still shift history. Some of you are in a season right now. You've done all you can do. Your faith may be working behind the scenes, but heaven is paying close attention. You've prayed. You've protected, and history is still being shaped because of it, a history that may never make the books, but every life you've touched, every life you've held is connected to someone's history, someone's journey, and their life connected to another and another.Closing Song; Behind The Scenes - produced by Deborah OcasioSupport the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

Today's reminder: You don't need permission to move forward. You don't need closure to obey God. And you don't need to carry dust from places God already released you from.Shake it off. Protect your peace. And keep your feet Kingdom-clean. Be Blessed!!!!Support the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

Whatever you do,Don't confuse silence with absence. Don't mistake waiting for rejection. And don't let impatience bully you into doubt.If God said it, it's settled. If it's delayed, it's developing. And if you're still standing—Heaven's still working.So breathe. Stretch. Trust the process. And maybe checking your spiritual tracking number every five minutes. There is no need to seek a psychic with a crystal ball. What God has for you will arrive right on time—and when it does, you'll be ready. Not just to receive it, but to carry it with strength, with joy, and with purpose.Closing Song: Habakkuh Style - Produced by Deborah OcasioSupport the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

If your first instinct when you hear “New Year, New Yes, New Access” is to think about you and yours, pause… and rewind.Because favor is not released where selfishness abides.Favor flows where obedience is outward-facing. Favor rests on assignments that bless beyond self. Favor is activated when your yes becomes a conduit, not a container.So in this season, be intentional. Intentional about your new yes. Intentional about your new moves. Intentional about how your obedience impacts beyond you and yours.Grace kept us. Favor now positions us. And this new yes—Closing Songs:  Still Standing & New Year New Yes (link to musical collection)Support the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

Ladies, the time has come to shift our priorities, stand on our worth, and, even more importantly, pour some knowledge into our young girls, build them up, and treat them as princesses in training for positions as queens.

Some of us wake up carrying shame like it's part of our outfit. Shame for addictions we conquered. Shame for marriages that didn't survive. Shame for money, we mishandled. Shame for the version of us that made choices we'd never make now. But here's the truth:You can't embarrass God with a past He already redeemed.Closing Song : I Own My Journey (written and produced by Deborah Ocasio)Support the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

As we move forward into a new year. In 2026:Don't just ask God for blessings — ask Him for direction.Don't just ask for change — ask for conviction.Don't just pray for open doors — pray for discernment so you don't kick in the wrong ones.Closing Song: I Choose Life - I Choose Christ (Written and produced by Deborah Ocasio) Click to follow Pastor Deb's Musical CompilationsSupport the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org
