Podcasts about Obedience

In this episode, I'm stepping into 2026 with a new perspective — one rooted in healing, reconnection, and intention. I share why this season is about watering relationships, reconnecting with family and old friends, and truly loving people while we still have time. As I reflect on loss, growth, and maturity, I talk honestly about how therapy, faith, and rededicating my life to Christ have shifted what actually matters to me now.Then I sit down with my brother Emmanuel Hudson, and we go deep into faith, obedience, and what it really looks like to rededicate your life to God. Eman shares powerful moments from his journey — from reading the Bible for himself for the first time, to understanding God's character through Scripture, to standing firm in his convictions in Hollywood by refusing to compromise his faith. This conversation is raw, funny, convicting, and full of truth about choosing obedience, reading the Word for yourself, and waking up spiritually in a world full of distractions.Please leave a review , if this episode spoke to you!For exclusive bonus content, behind-the-scenes vlogs, a place connect with the LTTA FAM plus more, join the LTTA app community at LTTA.app and unlock your invite today!Audio Fam, since you listen to the audio every Monday, don't forget to go watch the YouTube on Tuesday!

The environment you're in right now is strategically designed to draw out something greater within you. In this transformative message from Luke 2:46-52, Sarah Jakes Roberts explores how God places us in situations that demand more from our hidden spiritual capacity. Just as Moses was drawn from the Nile, God pulls out what He's already placed inside us through the environments we encounter. Hannah's story in 1 Samuel reveals that breakthrough often requires doing something unnatural to access the supernatural. When Jesus humbled Himself to live in human limitation, He modeled the ultimate act of surrendering what was natural for something greater. Your willingness to shift your environment, not just wait for your season to change, may be the key to experiencing what God wants to do through you. Obedience is the only strategy for stewarding something bigger than your understanding. This message shows us how to break out of limitation and step into supernatural breakthrough.

The Obedience Code-Cracking the Christian Life // Never Lose Hope, Never Give Up (pt.2) | Jared Douglas

In this message from Luke 17:1–19, we walk step by step with Jesus and discover what genuine discipleship looks like in everyday life. As we return to the Gospels following Advent, Jesus invites us to examine faith that walks, forgiveness that releases, service that humbles, and gratitude that returns. Jesus teaches us that: • Offenses will come, but we must guard our influence so we never become a stumbling block to another's faith. • Forgiveness is not optional, even when it's costly—because grace frees us from bitterness. • Faith isn't about quantity, but about who our faith rests in—even mustard-seed faith can uproot deep roots of resentment. • Serving God is not about entitlement, but joyful obedience flowing from already being accepted in Christ. The chapter culminates in the powerful story of the ten lepers—ten healed, but only one who returned in gratitude. While many received physical healing, only one experienced something greater: salvation. Gratitude turned healing into relationship. This message reminds us that: • Obedience often comes before the miracle • Grace is received, not earned • True worship flows from gratitude, not convenience • Faith that saves is faith that returns to Jesus As we journey toward Easter, this teaching calls us to live as forgiven people—quick to forgive, willing to obey, eager to serve, and always returning in gratitude to the feet of Jesus. “Your faith has saved you.” Sermon Date: January 4, 2026 Speaker: Pastor Landon Churchill ComeToFreedom.com

BRENNA BLAIN, Author and Speaker / Epiphany Sunday / John 2.1-11

Sunday Service | Pastor Brad Nave

At the height of his reign, Solomon enjoyed wisdom, wealth, peace, and God's favor. But a quiet shift was taking place that eventually led him to worship other gods. In this lesson, we will look at the the choices that pulled Solomon away from God so we don't make the same mistakes. You may think you could never turn away from God, but I'm sure Solomon thought the same thing.

This sermon marks the one-year anniversary of a teaching series on the book of Genesis, emphasizing why the narrative of the Bible remains essential for sharing the gospel in a modern pluralistic culture. Pastor West introduces Abraham as a central historical figure, noting that over half the world's population identifies him as a foundational father of faith. By examining the genealogies of Shem and Terah, the message illustrates how God selects ordinary, often flawed individuals from pagan backgrounds to fulfill a divine plan. The pastor argues that Abraham's call serves as a representative model for believers, demonstrating that God does not require perfection but rather willingness and obedience. Ultimately, the text challenges the congregation to trust God's guidance and take active steps of faith to become a blessing to others in the coming year.Support the showThanks for listening!

Our tendency is to run from God's call or begrudgingly accept it. We don't like to admit it, but we act like Jonah, even as we follow God. Thankfully, Jesus didn't run from God's mission, nor did he complain about it. We can trust what Jesus calls us to do, even if it means giving up on our preconceived ideas about what the mission might look like as we follow in faith.

In today's episode, Bob & Linda explore one of the most overlooked spiritual tests in the Christian life: how to stay dependent on God in the midst of blessings. Drawing from Joshua 11, they unpack the strange moment where God tells Israel to hamstring the horses and burn the enemy's chariots—the ancient equivalent of destroying tanks after a battle. Why would God command that? Because victories can be just as spiritually dangerous as trials. Through personal stories—from unexpected financial provision, to early blogging years, to painful seasons of health challenges—Bob & Linda reflect on how easy it is to place trust in the "chariots" of modern life: savings accounts, credit cards, systems, friendships, therapy, comfort, or even spiritual routines. This episode is an invitation to ask the Holy Spirit: "What chariot in my life have I started to rely on more than God?" It's a vulnerable, practical conversation about dependence, provision, and the subtle ways our security can shift from the Lord to the blessings He provides. (Scripture from NLT.)   Big Takeaways God sometimes blesses us with success—but the real test comes after the victory. "Chariots" today can be anything we lean on before we lean on God—money, strategies, credit cards, relationships, even good systems. Joshua's obedience protected Israel's dependence; Solomon's disobedience eroded his. Trusting God doesn't mean rejecting tools—it means refusing to let tools replace Him. Obedience may feel costly, but it leaves room for God's provision to be unmistakable.   Key Scriptures (NLT) Joshua 11 — God commands Israel to cripple the horses and burn the chariots. Psalm 20:7 — "Some nations boast of their chariots and horses, but we boast in the name of the Lord our God." Deuteronomy 17:16 — Instruction to future kings not to store up horses. Matthew 14 (referenced) — Jesus' exhausting day of grief, ministry, feeding the 5,000, walking on water, and praying through the night.   Highlighted Quotes from the Episode "Getting the blessing is one thing—keeping God at the center is another." "Some victories make you feel strong. God wants you to stay dependent." "You can have a blessed life and still miss what God is trying to form in you." "You're not called to trust the tool—only the One who provides it." "Ask the Holy Spirit: What chariot am I still holding onto?"   Timestamps 00:00 — The surprising test after a breakthrough 02:00 — Why did God tell Joshua to burn chariots? 04:15 — Dependence vs. self-reliance when life is going well 06:30 — Modern "chariots": money, comfort, systems, relationships 10:00 — A real inheritance story: when provision can become a trap 11:00 — Bob's personal story: the blog, losing his job, and losing their "income lifeline" 13:30 — How challenges can strengthen faith more than comfort 15:00 — Jesus' exhausting day: grief, ministry, storm 17:00 — Joshua vs. Solomon: a tale of two responses 20:00 — Is God asking you to lay something down? 25:00 — Guided prayer: "Lord, show me my chariots" 26:30 — Final verse + encouragement   Weekly Action Item Ask the Holy Spirit to reveal ONE "chariot" in your life—a place where you've subtly shifted trust from God to a tool, resource, or comfort. Write it down and pray: "Lord, show me how to surrender this and depend on You again."   CTA If you want help building money systems that support your trust in God rather than replace it, visit our SeedTime Money Resources Page for our latest guides and tools.     BONUS: Ever dreamt of hanging out with us for 6 weeks in your small group or church?

In Episode 2 of the NYE Lollapalooza, Jay Doran is joined again by co-host Mike “Mike Drop” Calhoun, with guests Judd Burdon (Asphalt Kingdom), Reagan Weiss, and Andrew Berman each bringing real-time reflections on growth, relationships, leadership, and the words that will define their next year.The conversation opens with a guiding quote: “Life is not a problem to be solved, but a reality to be experienced.”From there, the group digs into the “word” tradition—what last year required, what this year demands, and how transformation actually happens when the calendar turns.Judd shares a year marked by Change—a move across countries, leadership shifts, and a powerful “day with Jay” that reframed what's possible. His word for 2026 becomes Integration, as he maps a bigger ecosystem across e-commerce, manufacturing, brick-and-mortar expansion, and technology.Reagan reflects on a year of Relationships—and why his 2026 word is Obedience: obedience to God, family, and the relationships he's been given stewardship over. Andrew Berman joins the conversation to unpack his word, Accountability, and the structure required to actually live it—especially as a leader scaling a team and organization.Along the way, they debate founder vs CEO mindsets, discuss what makes real advisors different from coaches and consultants, and return to the core theme of the day: proximity can spark transformation—but only if your mindset is ready to receive it.If you're entering a new year looking for clarity, better questions, and a deeper standard—this episode is your reset.If you want, I can also do a shorter description (60–90 words) for Apple/Spotify and a YouTube description with timestamps.

LEVITICUS 9 — AUTHORIZED FIRE AND COVENANT ORDER“Activation, Accountability, and Divine Approval”Teachers: Kerry & Karen BattleAhava ~ Love AssemblyThis lesson follows directly from Leviticus 8 and records the activation of the priesthood after consecration.Leviticus 8 established cleansing, order, and preparation.Leviticus 9 reveals what happens when the consecrated actually approach Yahuah.This chapter answers one covenant question:How does Israel live when Yahuah chooses to dwell in our midst without consuming us?This is not ceremony.This is covenant activation.This is divine response.WHAT WE COVER IN THIS LESSON1. The Eighth Day: Accountability BeginsLeviticus 9:1After seven days of consecration, instruction ends and responsibility begins. The priesthood is no longer being prepared, it is being tested. Obedience must now be demonstrated publicly before Israel.2. The Priest Must Judge Himself FirstLeviticus 9:2–7Before addressing the sin of the people, Aaron must make atonement for himself. Leadership increases accountability. Unjudged sin in leadership places the entire camp at risk.3. Obedience Must Be ExactLeviticus 9:8–21Every action at the altar is performed precisely as commanded. No creativity. No innovation. Precision is not legalism, it is protection when fire is involved.4. Blessing Follows ObedienceLeviticus 9:22–23Aaron blesses the people only after obedience is completed. Blessing is not emotional speech, it is a covenant function released in proper order.5. Authorized Fire from Before YahuahLeviticus 9:24Fire comes out from before Yahuah and consumes the offering. This fire is divine approval. The same fire that blesses obedience will judge disorder. Not all fire is authorization.WHY THIS LESSON MATTERSConsecration is testedObedience is verifiedAccountability is enforcedAuthority is confirmedCovenant order is revealedLeviticus 9 shows that preparation without obedience is incomplete, and proximity without order is dangerous.SCRIPTURE REFERENCES FOR STUDYLev 8–10 • Ex 29 • Lev 16 • Num 3 • Num 18Mal 1 • Ezek 44 • Ps 24 • Isa 6Matt 23 • John 4 • Heb 12Every section is taught precept upon precept.

True freedom is often misunderstood as the ability to do whatever we desire. Still, Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar examine how Scripture defines freedom as living to glorify God and walking in righteousness. The guys explain that the idol of freedom emerges when something good is taken too far, causing people to violate God's commands in pursuit of their own desires. They emphasize that without Christ, humans are enslaved to sin, passions, and self-righteousness, and that true liberty comes through surrender to Him. Freedom is not chaos or lawlessness; it is the disciplined ability to function within God's boundaries and enjoy Him forever.The guys explore how civil freedom can often be confused with spiritual freedom. Even in a society with many liberties, humans remain bound to sin unless Christ reigns in their lives. They describe sin as addictive, like a drug that offers pleasure but leads to bondage, and they challenge listeners to think about what they are worshipping. Self-rule cannot coexist with devotion to Jesus, and the guys encourage believers to seek God's will every day, align their desires with His, and develop contentment in the unique path He has planned. Freedom is not measured by what we can do, but by obedience to the Lord who governs all parts of life.The guys also discuss how personal freedom affects others. Using examples from universities and conversations with college students, they show how passions can enslave people and how sin acts as a dictator in life. True liberty means doing what is right regardless of others' opinions, yielding to the fruit of the Spirit rather than the flesh, and living without fear or hidden agendas. The guys encourage listeners to examine their lives, consider how they spend unstructured time, and evaluate whether they are genuinely free or secretly controlled by desires, habits, or societal pressures.Finally, the guys remind believers that freedom is relational and transformative. Walking in the light and desiring the Lord above fleshly pleasures reorients identity, repentance, and surrender. They challenge listeners to resist modern distortions of freedom, from self-mutilation to justification of sin, and to remember that God's commandments lead to life, not restriction. The pursuit of man often rejects God, but when the Son sets someone free, they are free indeed. The guys call believers to continually return to Him, yield to His authority, and embrace the true liberty that only comes through Christ. Send us a textThanks for listening!

A Year of Intimacy Obedience and Multiplication is the topic that will be discussed today on RIOT Podcast, a Christian Discipleship Podcast.

In this New Year’s Eve message, Pastor Rick challenges us to examine how far we are truly willing to go with our focus, faith, heart, and resources. He confronts the danger of settling, shrinking back, or looking behind us, and calls us to move forward with unwavering commitment to God’s purpose.

In this New Year’s Eve message, Pastor Rick challenges us to examine how far we are truly willing to go with our focus, faith, heart, and resources in following Christ. Through Scripture and reflection, he confronts the danger of settling, shrinking back, or walking away when obedience begins to cost us.

Ultimately, distinction is the alignment of a man with his God. When a person achieves this alignment, structural changes occur. A process of being set apart and being removed from the norm of things begins. A seclusion happens & they are separated unto their God. It is required because of who has chosen them. Obedience is the key to progress here. By living according to the tenets of God in this stage, distinction begins to crystallise. If we want to experience the outcomes of distinction, we must remain obedient. We can't walk in sin and think we are a people of excellence and peculiarity. God will redraw himself.

The Working of the Holy Spirit in the Life of the Believer #4.

Drew and Tim take a hard and honest look at how success is defined in today's church culture. In a world obsessed with numbers—attendance, giving, buildings, and platforms—this episode challenges listeners to ask whether we've borrowed the wrong scorecard. While metrics can be helpful tools, they were never meant to replace the deeper work of God in transformed lives.This conversation contrasts ministry and business, acknowledging that while both may track growth, only one is called to pursue obedience over outcomes. Drew and Tim emphasize that behind every number is a name, a story, and a soul—and that heaven celebrates faithfulness long before it celebrates growth. Churches can be full and still spiritually empty, active yet unchanged, orthodox but lifeless.At the heart of the episode is a simple but piercing truth: success in ministry is obedience to God's calling. Sometimes obedience leads to growth. Sometimes it leads to obscurity. Either way, Jesus—not results—is the goal. Through personal stories, biblical examples, and real-life ministry moments, this episode invites leaders and believers alike to redefine success, resist comparison, and pursue faithfulness over fame. If you've ever wondered whether what you're doing “counts,” this conversation will realign your heart back to what matters most—keeping your eyes on Jesus.Check out our brand-new merch store! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://eyesonjesuspodcast-shop.fourthwall.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Get all our links in one easy place! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/eyesonjesuspodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Get the Eyes on Jesus 90 Day Discernment Devotional⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://a.co/d/3v8963s⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join our Group on Facebook- Eyes on Jesus podcast community ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/groups/eyesonjesuspodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Email feedback, questions or show topic ideas to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠eyesonjesuspodcast@outlook.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠For more information on Drew Barker: Follow Drew on ⁠Instagram ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/pastordrewbarker⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Drew's church's website ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://yes.online/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠For more information on Tim Ferrara: ⁠ ⁠ Get all his links in one place- to his social media, all 3 of his books, and more ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/discerning_dad⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

Iniquity prevails in the last days. Obedience is required to righteousness. The voice of the Holy Ghost.

“When Obedience Leads Into the Unknown” | Genesis 37:12–36 SermonIn this powerful sermon on Genesis 37, we follow Joseph's obedience, his betrayal by his brothers, and how God uses suffering to accomplish His sovereign plan. If you're searching for teaching on trusting God in hard seasons, walking by faith, or understanding why obedience can lead into difficulty, this message will speak deeply to you.Joseph's story shows us:Obedience doesn't guarantee easeGod's purpose isn't based on our performanceSin blinds us to the Savior God sendsThrough Joseph's journey—from the pit to Egypt—Scripture reveals a God who is faithful even when life feels out of control. This sermon connects Joseph's suffering to the greater story of redemption in Jesus Christ, the true and better Joseph.If you want biblical teaching on:God's sovereignty in sufferingFaith when life feels unfairSpiritual growth through trialsUnderstanding Joseph's story in GenesisHow God uses broken people for His purpose…this message will encourage and challenge you.

What do you do when obeying God feels risky? In today's Words From The Word devotion, Pastor Roderick Webster walks through Matthew 2:13–16 and shows how God protected the young child Jesus through Joseph's quick obedience.After the wise men departed, an angel warned Joseph in a dream: “Arise… flee into Egypt”—because Herod sought to destroy the child. Joseph didn't argue, delay, or negotiate. He moved by night, trusting God's plan even when the journey was long and costly. And in God's perfect timing, provision was already there—gold from the wise men would help sustain the trip and the stay.This episode also exposes Herod's rage and reminds us: God's purposes stand, prophecy is fulfilled, and the Savior was preserved—so that, in the fullness of time, Jesus would give His life for sinners.If you're asking:“How do I obey when I'm afraid?”“Will God provide if I do what He says?”“What's my real purpose in life?”this devotion is for you.✅ Like, comment, and share to bless someone who needs courage to obey God today.▶️ Watch the full Words From The Word Christmas series and grow daily in God's Word.#WordsFromTheWord #ChristmasDevotion #TrustGod #Obedience0:00 Christmas hymn + opening0:46 Warning in a dream (Matthew 2:13)1:55 God's command: flee to Egypt2:28 Obedience without delay3:12 The cost of obedience (long journey)3:41 God's provision (gold from wise men)4:48 Fulfilled prophecy (Out of Egypt)6:19 Herod's wrath revealed9:01 Why you're here (gain world/lose soul)10:36 How to receive Christ11:04 New Year prayer + closing charge

Prophetic Gatekeepers guard the gates of God's truth! In a world saturated with endless information, discerning truth from falsehood is more critical than ever, especially within the prophetic realm. Let's take a deep dive into the vital role of a Prophetic Gatekeeper Manuscript Specialist – those who stand guard, protecting God's flock from harmful attacks and ensuring the purity of His message is NOT distorted by deceitful lies. Our mission is to help nonfiction authors, literary agents, and publishers prepare and release prophetic books that empower, equip, and encourage the body of Christ with God's truth without falsehood. In today's world, there's a growing trend of mixing New Age practices with Christianity, often for profit, but it deeply hurts God's flock! This can be incredibly damaging to believers; leading them astray, distorting their understanding of God's truth, and keeping them knitted with the enemy! Let's ensure that prophetic books and content accurately represent Jesus with integrity and purity, free from New Age influences, heresy, false religions, and fake healing practices.

In this episode, we dig into Luke 5:18–26 from a perspective almost nobody teaches. We break down how this story reveals the true nature of selflessness love, how it mirrors the way God loves us, and why some blessings are never meant for you at all.Key Scriptures Mentioned: - Luke 5:18-26 (NLT)Resources: ★ Journal Mastery Academy - Coachyourwaytowealth.com/Journalmasteryacademy★ Start Your Own Podcast Course - https://www.skillshare.com/en/classes/How-To-Start-A-Podcast-For-Beginners/1142543427?teacherRef=958930354&via=teacher-referral&utm_campaign=teacher-referral-1142543427&utm_source=Skillshare&utm_medium=class-teacher-referral-email★ The Royal Faith Journal - https://prosperingwithchrist.systeme.io/theroyalfaithjournalFollow Us On YouTube, Tiktok, Instagram, and Facebook: @ProsperingWithChrist

Title: The Son's Obedience Preacher: Caleb Morell Series: What Will God's Judgement Reveal? Passage: Isaiah 50:1-11

God's armor may not always feel comfortable, but it is necessary. It's not a buffet. It's irreducibly complex. Miss one piece and you're vulnerable—like an old VW bus with 12,000 parts and no brake fluid. One small omission can become a big disaster. We tend to trust our strengths too much. Blind spots are real. David, Peter, Abraham, Moses—giants with gaps. The armor is “of God.” That means the source and the standard are God, not me. I traced the cultural shift in authority: ancient (Scripture), modern (science), postmodern (self). We live in the age of “I feel,” where feelings often sit in the driver's seat. But Ephesians assumes an ancient posture: God speaks; Scripture is authority; I submit my emotions, not the other way around. With God's armor, we CAN withstand. Not easily, but truly (1 Corinthians 10:13; Romans 6). We celebrate forgiveness—and we should—but we should also celebrate that we are no longer slaves to sin. New covenant hearts want God. We get deceived when we trade deep joy for cheap thrills. Cheap is available. Deep takes patience and wisdom. Porn promises intensity and leaves people empty, ashamed, and alone. Shallow “community” at the bar gives the feeling of companionship without the truth that transforms us. Buying kids off with stuff substitutes for the hard and beautiful work of forming souls. When tempted, pause and ask, “What do I most want in ten years?” Pray. Phone a friend. Choose the long game. Then there's “the evil day.” Not Revelation horses. The personal season when the waves don't stop. Some in Scripture fell on their evil day; others stood—Joseph, Daniel, Shadrach/Meshach/Abednego, Paul, and Jesus. We come to the Table to be strengthened, so when that day comes, we can stand.

Sacrifice is rebellion when obedience is ignored. In “Obedience Is Greater Than Sacrifice", Pastor Craig ends the year strong with the story of Samuel and Saul from 1 Samuel 15.

In this GoMission episode, Mark Gillmore sits down in eastern Uganda with Brother David, a Kenyan missionary serving among the Pokot and Karamajong people of the Karamoja region. Living among nomadic cattle herders in a harsh and often hostile environment, Brother David shares how God burdened his heart to bring the gospel to an unreached people group marked by violence, animism, and deep spiritual darkness. Without financial backing and with great personal sacrifice, he obeyed God's call and has seen over 150 believers baptized and a growing local church planted in one of the hardest mission fields in East Africa.Topics DiscussedLife and culture among the Pokot and Karamajong peopleNomadic living, cattle identity, and spiritual strongholdsAnimism, spirit worship, and resistance to the gospelBrother David's salvation testimony and calling to missionsObeying God without funding or institutional supportDaily evangelism and discipleship, not event-based ministryLiving with the people to reach the peopleTeaching illiterate communities and oral discipleshipBaptism, church planting, and steady gospel fruitSacrifice, perseverance, and joy in obedienceKey TakeawaysThe gospel often advances fastest in places others avoid.Obedience to God's call matters more than comfort, safety, or support.True missions work is relational, daily, and deeply incarnational.Spiritual strongholds rooted in culture require patience and discipleship, not shortcuts.God does not need ideal conditions to build His church.The value of a single soul outweighs personal sacrifice.Do you have a story of gospel advance or a burden for a specific people group?
