Juwayriya bint al-Harith (RA) was a noblewoman from the Banu Mustaliq tribe and later became one of the wives of the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ). Her birth name was Barrah, which the Prophet (ﷺ) later changed to Juwayriya, meaning “little girl” or “young woman.” She was the daughter of al-Harith ibn Abi Dirar, the chief of the Banu Mustaliq tribe. In 5 AH (627 CE), during the expedition against Banu Mustaliq, her tribe was defeated by the Muslims, and Juwayriya (RA) was taken captive. She fell into the share of Thabit ibn Qays, a companion of the Prophet (ﷺ). Desiring freedom, Juwayriya (RA) negotiated a mukataba (contract of emancipation) with Thabit. She then approached the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) to help her fulfill it. The Prophet (ﷺ) not only agreed to help her but also offered to marry her, to which she consented. Upon their marriage, the companions of the Prophet (ﷺ), out of respect for the new marital bond, freed around 100 of her tribespeople, saying, “These are the in-laws of the Messenger of Allah.” This act led to a great reconciliation between her tribe and the Muslims. Juwayriya (RA) was known for her devotion to worship and piety. One authentic hadith mentions that the Prophet (ﷺ) found her engaged in dhikr (remembrance of Allah) from after Fajr until mid-morning, highlighting her spiritual commitment. (Sahih Muslim 2726) She remained married to the Prophet (ﷺ) until his passing and lived on for many years afterward. According to Sunni sources, she passed away around 50 AH (670 CE) during the caliphate of Mu'awiyah ibn Abi Sufyan, and she was buried in Al-Baqi' cemetery in Medina.
al-Mugheera Ibn Shu'ba رضي الله عنه (S56) A now elderly Mugheera asks Ameer Muawiya رضي الله عنهم if he can be removed from his post in Kufa - Muawiya originally didn't want to remove him but upon seeing the aged physical condition of Mugheera, he decided to relieve him from the post. Muawiya رضي الله عنه wanted the replacement to be Sa'eed Ibn al-Aas رضي الله عنه - a brief overview of this elite companion: He was first cousins with Ameer ul Mumineen Uthman Ibn Affan رضي الله عنه. He was a descendant of Abd Manaf. He was of the most eloquent amongst the Quraysh, his speech matching The Messenger's ﷺ himself! Sa'eed رضي الله عنه was extremely righteous and Mugheera رضي الله عنه didn't want him to have to deal with the Kufans - so Mugheera رضي الله عنه asked Yazeed Ibn Muawiya to ask his father if he should succeed. This silences those who claim Muawiya رضي الله عنه wanted his son to succeed him straight away out of nepotism! Mugheera رضي الله عنه was appointed as governor of Kufa again, to pave the way for Yazeed.

WELCOME BACK! We hear it all the time: “Show up for yourself.” But what does that really mean? In today's episode, I'm diving into one of the most powerful — and overlooked — forms of healing: learning to consistently show up for you. Because healing isn't just about forgiving the past or raising your vibe. It's about how you act when no one's watching. It's how you love yourself in real-time — emotionally, physically, energetically, and spiritually… and how this changes everything in your manifestation journey, your soul's growth, and your ability to actually hold the life you're calling in. This is real. This is raw. And this is your spiritual assignment.

The preacher giving himself up wholly to his preaching, and discharging his work in the power of the Spirit, is to aim at the results which are mentioned in the text. He must pity broken hearts and endeavor to bind them up. He must remember the Lord's prisoners and seek their release. If he does not aim at these objects he forgets the design of true preaching, which is not for preaching's sake, much less for the preacher's sake; but all for the sake of the people of God, many of whom Satan holds in bondage under sin.

Wednesday, 2 July 2025 And if you are willing to receive it, he is Elijah who is to come. Matthew 11:14 “And if you incline to receive, he, he is Elijah, the ‘being about to come.'” (CG). In the previous verse, Jesus said, “For all the prophets and the law, until John, they prophesied.” He next says, still speaking of John, “And if you incline to receive.” Jesus will state a matter which is a certain truth, but He sets it forth as a proposition. Therefore, someone may accept or reject the proposition as he is so inclined. Because it is the Lord speaking, it is to be considered an act of trust as well as faith in the reliability of His word that it is so. This proposition is, “he, he is Elijah.” One can see the emphatic nature of His words, and it is the emphasis that brings about the proper understanding of what Jesus is saying. There is a prophecy in Malachi 4 that everyone would have known about – “Behold! I sending to you Elijah the prophet, To faces coming day Yehovah – The whopping and the fearing. 6 And turned heart fathers upon sons, And heart sons upon fathers. Lest come and strike the land – anathema.” Matthew 4:5, 6 (CG) Jesus says that John the Baptist is this “Elijah” who was prophesied about. Thus, he is “the ‘being about to come.'” In other words, from the time the prophecy was given, there was the expectation that Elijah was coming. Each year, Jewish tradition taught that he would arrive at a feast, but this is most usually associated with the Passover. For this reason, it was (and still is to this day) a custom for some Jews to leave an empty chair at the seder, hoping it was to their home he would come. However, it is clear from verses in Luke and John that John the Baptist is not Elijah – “He will also go before Him in the spirit and power of Elijah, ‘to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children,' and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just, to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.” Luke 1:17 “Now this is the testimony of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, ‘Who are you?' 20 He confessed, and did not deny, but confessed, ‘I am not the Christ.' 21 And they asked him, ‘What then? Are you Elijah?' He said, ‘I am not.'” John 1:19-21 To understand what is going on, one must more fully grasp the words of Malachi. Malachi 3:1 said that the messenger of the Lord, who is John the Baptist, would prepare the way for the Messenger of the covenant, Jesus. Reading the New Testament, it is taken as a certainty that this was referring to John and then Jesus. John came in the spirit and power of Elijah. Jesus, with His emphatic proclamation, is essentially saying, “John is doing the work of Elijah. You must accept this and not look for any other to avoid the curse of Malachi 4 to come upon you.” However, God knew that Jesus would be rejected by Israel. In Malachi 4:1, it says, “For behold! The day coming...” The day referred to corresponds to what was said in Malachi 3:2 – “But who can endure the day of His coming? And who can stand when He appears?” But what exactly is this day? Scholars vary in their interpretation of its meaning. Some place it at the time of Christ's coming and the nation's rejection of Him. Thus, the destruction of Jerusalem by fire and the exile of the people. Others see it as the day when Christ returns in fiery judgment, as in 2 Peter 3:7 – “But the heavens and the earth which are now preserved by the same word, are reserved for fire until the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.” If this is the same day referred to in Malachi 3, one might assume the day is in Jesus' first coming. This is what Jesus is testifying to now. However, Malachi 4:5 says that this day is when the Lord will send Elijah the prophet, a man who did not die but who was taken directly to heaven in a whirlwind, as recorded in 2 Kings 2. The answer to the meaning of “the day” comes from understanding God's irrevocable faithfulness to His unfaithful people, Israel. He has promised that He will bring them into the New Covenant. As a nation, that has not yet happened. And so, the day is not one particular time, nor is it one particular event. It is a succession of events that comprises the day of the Lord's judgment spanning the history of Israel from Christ's first advent until His second. John the Baptist came as the promised Elijah, and the nation did not receive Jesus. In the future, Elijah himself will return to testify once again to the nation. If Israel had heeded Jesus' emphatic proclamation, John's ministry would have been accepted as the coming of Elijah, they would have accepted Jesus, and they would have avoided the past two thousand years of calamity. But they didn't. Hence, there is a need for Elijah to return and testify to the nation in the future. Life application: God has not forsaken Israel, and the church has not replaced Israel or become “spiritual Israel.” The Bible never hints at such a thing. Rather, the church is a separate entity, fulfilling God's plan of redemption while Israel has languished under the punishment of the curses of the Law of Moses for having rejected Jesus. However, despite their unfaithfulness, God has remained faithful. Were He to reject Israel, He would be just as prone to rejecting us in our state of salvation. Such will never be the case. Our unfaithfulness in no way negates God's faithfulness. We are saved and we continue to be saved despite ourselves. Thank God for Jesus, who has made this possible. Lord God, thank You for the glory of Jesus Christ. His shed blood is sufficient not only to save all who come to Him, but to keep them saved until the day of redemption. We have no need to fear if we could lose what You have granted to us. We are secure until the end because of Jesus and His cross. Thank You, O God, for Jesus. Amen.

Welcome to our journey through the book of Malachi, and specifically, lesson two of this six-part series. This lesson focuses on the challenging question, how do we respond when God confronts us with uncomfortable truths? Malachi's message wasn't easy for the Israelites who received it, as God accused them of despising Him. The crucial question we explore is: "Lord, how have we despised you?" Despising, in this context, means dishonoring God, which is the opposite of what we were created to do. We must self-reflect to ensure we're not unknowingly guilty of this offense. You are invited to purchase the workbook that contains everything you need to take your experience of the Book of Malachi deeper! For each of the six lessons, you will find a complete listening guide, questions to go deeper (on your own, with a friend, or a group), as well as a worksheet to study further themes. Go to https://www.gospelspice.com/malachi for more. We will focus heavily on the concept of the "Lord's table," a term used to describe the sacrificial altar in Malachi's time, but for us in Christ today, it represents the communion, or Eucharist. The Israelites were reprimanded for offering blemished and stolen sacrifices, reflecting their lukewarm devotion. This challenges us to examine the quality of our own offerings to God and whether we're fully honoring Him in our lives, in Christ through the Holy Spirit. Taking communion should be an act of sincerity and reverence. We must avoid taking it lightly or infrequently, as that's akin to despising God's hospitality. Approaching the Lord's table requires self-examination to avoid judgment. It's not just about receiving but giving ourselves to God in gratitude. In Malachi's time, the priests were supposed to be gatekeepers of the temple, ensuring proper offerings were made. However, they were complicit in the people's unfaithfulness. This serves as a warning for us since, in Christ, we're all part of a royal priesthood. We're reminded of our responsibility to honor God with our best, engaging in lives of qualitative generosity. We also talk about the dangers of theological arrogance, encouraging us to approach mysteries of faith with humility. Misunderstanding or despising the Lord's table isn't just a personal error, but it can lead to broader consequences for our community and ourselves, as evidenced by Paul's warnings to the Corinthians. God always intertwines His rebukes with hope and grace, and nowhere more than in Christ Jesus, our Savior and King. Despite His people's failures, He offers a path back to Him, emphasizing His desire for sincere worship and devotion. The message from Malachi remains relevant, inviting us to rediscover the joy of truly honoring God in all aspects of our lives. We conclude with a prayer, asking for humility and repentance where we've failed to honor God as He deserves. By recognizing and addressing these areas, we're given the opportunity to mature in faith and deepen our relationship with Him, reflecting His glory in our lives. Amen!

In this powerful episode, I sit down with EMDR therapist, trauma specialist, and creator of the Embodied Rise Method, Cassandra Quick, to explore how true healing begins with understanding our inner world. Together, we unpack the emotional layers of trauma, the impact of attachment styles, and the healing power of reconnecting with the inner child. Cassandra shares how modalities like EMDR therapy, EFT tapping, and trauma-conscious yoga can help rewire the nervous system and create a sense of safety in the body. Key Topics Covered: What “parts work” really means—and how our protective parts are trying to help Why so many women were conditioned to suppress anger, and how that shows up today How EMDR works and why it's so effective for trauma recovery Big T vs Little t trauma—and why all trauma is valid Navigating attachment styles and emotional safety in relationships Tools for emotional regulation, energy shifts, and intuition The 3-step Illuminate Blueprint and the Embodied Rise Method for holistic healing A personal story about being triggered after a big life moment—and how to move through it with grace Whether you're new to trauma work or deep in the healing process, this episode is a reminder that your triggers are treasures, your body is a messenger, and healing happens when you learn to connect with yourself, with others, and with your story.

Your highest self is enjoying their life! You don't need to be perfect. You just want to feel alive. In this episode, I am here to remind you of what actually makes you magnetic — and it's not high vibes 24/7, flawless routines, or spiritual perfection. It's your aliveness. If you've felt disconnected, heavy, or like the glow has dimmed, this conversation is your gentle (but powerful) reset. I'm sharing personally what I've been going through —navigating burnout, starseed overwhelm, and trying to create a sustainable life that actually feels good. This isn't about doing more. It's about reconnecting to your own life force.

Saturday, 28 June 2025 For this is he of whom it is written: ‘Behold, I send My messenger before Your face, Who will prepare Your way before You.' Matthew 11:10 “For this, he is about whom it has been written, ‘Behold, I, I send My messenger before Your face, who, he will prepare Your way before you'” (CG). In the previous verse, Jesus told the people that they had gone out into the wilderness to see more than a prophet. Now, He continues that thought, saying, “For this, he is about whom it has been written.” As noted in the previous commentary, this means that a specific prophecy was written about John. Thus, in this instance, he is the subject and fulfillment of the prophecy. The Lord, seeing the ministry of John as a precursor to the coming of Christ, spoke of him. But He did not only do it through Isaiah as noted in the previous verse. He also spoke of John through the words of Malachi, saying, “Behold, I, I send My messenger.” The words come from Malachi 3:1, where the Lord speaks first of John as a messenger and then Jesus as the Messenger of the covenant – “‘Behold Me – Sending My messenger, And turned way to My faces And instantly comes unto His temple, The Lord, whom you seek, And Messenger the covenant, Whom you – delighted. Behold! Coming!' Said Yehovah Sabaoth.” Malachi 3:1 (CG) John is the messenger sent by the Lord. His ministry was to be “before Your face.” In other words, another is being referred to by the Lord. It was understood from the prophecy that this would be Israel's Messiah. By taking these words and combining them with the other prophecy about John from Isaiah, a logical deduction can be made – “The voice of one crying in the wilderness: ‘Prepare the way of the Lord; Make straight in the desert A highway for our God.'” Isaiah 40:3 From these words, the One John was to prepare the way for, was the Lord, Yehovah. Malachi says, “before Your face” concerning the Messiah. Thus, unless one denies a literal reading of the text, it can be deduced that the “Your” is referring to Yehovah. That continues to be seen in the words, “who, he will prepare Your way before you.” The same word, panah, that is used in Isaiah 40:3 is used in Malachi 3:1. It signifies to turn. In this particular sense, the turning is a form of preparation. Taking both verses and understanding the reference, meaning that of John the Baptist and his work of preparing the way for another, it is understood that he is the herald of the Messiah, who is Yehovah incarnate. This was the greatness of the ministry of John, and it is one of the reasons why Jesus says that he is more than a prophet. His role in the stream of redemptive history is unparalleled in comparison to any other prophet. Life application: If you are on the sidelines in your thinking concerning Jesus' deity, you should probably question your salvation. You may have believed in Jesus, but which Jesus were you presented with? The Jehovah's Witnesses deny the incarnation of Christ. The Jesus they proclaim is not the Jesus of the Bible. The same is true with Mormonism. These heresies, along with other teachings concerning Jesus' deny the truth that Jesus is God incarnate. However, Scripture clearly presents Him as such. In fact, from an honest reading of competently translated Scriptures, one will come to no other conclusion than the Bible reveals that God would personally intervene in the stream of human existence and restore humanity to Himself. This may not be fully understood by the reader, but it is a truth that should not be denied. Not fully understanding something does not necessarily equate to unbelief. Paul not only speaks of “another gospel” in Galatians 1:7, but he also refers to both another gospel and “another Jesus” in 2 Corinthians 11:4. Belief in a false gospel will result in a false security based on a false salvation experience. The gospel conveys the truth that God incarnate, Jesus Christ, accomplished all that is necessary for salvation. Believe this and be saved. O God, we believe that You united with humanity to restore us to Yourself. We may not understand all that means, but we accept it by faith. You have done it! Thank You, O God, for the coming of Jesus Christ our Lord to redeem us and give us eternal life in You. Amen.

In this powerful and refreshingly honest episode, I'm breaking down the myth that your “why” has to be deep, spiritual, or selfless to be valid. We've all heard that you need a meaningful “why” in order to create lasting change — but what if the desire to be rich, to be hot, or to prove something to yourself is enough? We explore how embracing your shadow — those “unacceptable” reasons we tend to hide can actually be the fuel that drives you forward.
