In this episode of Roadmap to Heaven, Adam Wright discusses the importance of morning offerings, First Friday and First Saturday devotions, and the role of the Blessed Mother in guiding believers. Adam shares a conversation he taped with Cory Grizzle before his medical leave. They emphasize the need for trust in God, especially during uncertain times, and highlights the significance of prayer and sacraments in deepening one's faith. The conversation also touches on the lessons from the Ascension and the concept of miracles as invitations to believe. Finally, the show concludes with reflections on the glorified body and the hope of resurrection. Takeaways Morning offerings set the tone for the day. First Friday and First Saturday devotions are essential for spiritual growth. The Blessed Mother leads us closer to Jesus. Trusting God is crucial, even when we don't understand His plans. Prayer and sacraments are vital for a strong faith. Lessons from the Ascension teach us about obedience and trust. Miracles serve as evidence of God's presence and an invitation to follow Him. The glorified body is a promise of resurrection and eternal life. We must teach our children to trust in God through our actions. Daily prayer and reflection help us stay close to Christ.

Episode SummaryIn this insightful episode, Dr. Jim Van Gelderen reveals one of Satan's most effective tactics: convincing believers to trust in themselves.

If you've ever felt defeated despite trying your hardest, this message will open your eyes to the real source of strength: moment-by-moment dependence on Jesus Christ.Topics DiscussedRevival updates from Michigan and upcoming ministry in ColoradoA wartime illustration of enemy deceptionWhy self-dependence is spiritual sabotageWhat “be strong in the Lord” really means (Ephesians 6:10)The role of English grammar in understanding the BibleHow human strength fails under spiritual pressurePersonal reflections on a lifetime of weakness and God's faithfulnessPrayer as the breath of dependenceThe connection between pride, self-reliance, and defeatHow to face spiritual battles with real powerKey TakeawaysSatan doesn't need to overpower you—he just needs you to trust yourself.Real strength isn't self-generated. It flows from continual dependence on Christ.Prayer is not optional—it's how you breathe in the strength of God.Victory doesn't come from trying harder. It comes from surrendering fully.
