Have you ever been in a situation where you opened your mouth when maybe you should have bit your tongue instead? James says if you can tame your tongue you can bridle your whole body. This might be impossible this side of heaven, but there is a prayer in Psalm 39 to help us hold our tongues and walk in wisdom especially in the hight of our emotions. ----------------------------------------------------Long into today with a personal story of God's grace to our family!You can skip to the topic starting at min 8:10Plug in carbon detector:  https://a.co/d/3vIjtcT----------------------------------------------------This podcast episode is so practical for our marriages, parenting, and relationships with other people.

It was an easy, safe, and effectual way of avoiding sin, if it did not involve a neglect of the duty which he owed to God to speak well of his name.” (Spurgeon)"Lord, make us to consider this, that we may secure mansions in the house not made with hands." Matthew Henry"Watchfulness and resolution, in the strength of God's grace, will do more towards the bridling of the tongue than we can imagine, though it be an unruly evil." Matthew Henry When we are vexed and troubled and our emotions are mounting up, it is a good and wise thing for us to hit the pause button by asking the Lord to remind us of our brevity - that like Psalm 90 says, "teach us to number our days aright, that we may gain a heart of wisdom."Support the showLove wellness products for your whole family?

GO FORWARD CONFERENCE || DAY 16 (part b) ||Prayer,Faith, Miracles, Watchfulness, Thanksgiving |CHIMDI OHAHUNA Welcome to this session of the Go Forward Conference '24, where we will examine the transformative command to ‘Rise Up' according to Deuteronomy 2:24. In the previous teaching session, we explored the necessity of continuing in faith. Now, we turn our focus to another vital aspect of our walk with Christ: the discipline of continuing in prayers and watching in thanksgiving, as highlighted in Colossians 4:3. This teaching explains why prayer must be accompanied by watchfulness. Living watchfully means preparing for the return of our Lord Jesus Christ, ensuring that our prayers are not just words but part of a vigilant lifestyle. As we delve into 1 Thessalonians 5:17, we'll discuss how being watchful equips us to receive divine messages both during and after our prayers. Also, explore why we pray – not out of fear of the enemy, but from a deep-seated need for God. Prayer, when coupled with watchfulness, opens our eyes to the manifestation of signs and miracles. Being watchful involves both spiritual and physical alertness, fostering not just a prayer life but a life reflective of Christian virtues. This teaching session challenges the notion of being a ‘prayer warrior' with a flawed/bad character, emphasizing that true watchfulness manifests the fruits of the Spirit. Discover how miracles can be hindered when prayers lack watchfulness, and why developing godly character is crucial for effective prayer. The teaching also emphasizes the role of thanksgiving in prayer. As we watch, we should also give thanks to acknowledge God's works and step forward in faith. Thanksgiving, born from watchfulness, enhances our spiritual journey, making us more appreciative and proactive in our faith. Join us and receive revelation light on how to integrate watchfulness and thanksgiving into our daily prayers, transforming how we engage with God and anticipate His work in our lives. Grace to You! Jesus is Lord.

The Assad regime in Syria has fallen after decades of brutal rule, leaving the region and the world watching closely. What does this mean for Israel, for the Middle East, and for God's timeline? In this episode of The Jewish Road Podcast, we explore the implications of this seismic shift. From Iran's crumbling “Shiite corridor” to Israel's strategic moves in the Golan Heights, we unpack the geopolitical and spiritual consequences of this historic event. But this isn't just about politics - it's about the unfolding of biblical prophecy. As the Middle East shifts, what role do Christians play in standing with Israel? And how can we be watchful, prayerful, and active in these critical times? Join us as we dig deep into what this moment means for the nations and for God's ultimate plan. Key Takeaways: The fall of the Assad regime marks a dramatic shift in Middle Eastern dynamics, creating both opportunities and dangers. Iran's influence is diminishing as its proxies like Hezbollah face setbacks, but new threats could emerge in Syria's power vacuum. Biblical prophecy, such as Isaiah 17 and Zechariah 12, points to the significance of these events in God's timeline. Christians have a biblical mandate to stand with Israel as God's chosen people and play an active role as watchmen in these times. Chapter Markers: 0:00 – Introduction: The fall of the Assad regime in Syria. 5:12 – Historical context: Assad's brutal reign and its collapse. 12:45 – Israel's response: Strategic moves in the Golan Heights. 18:20 – Iran's unraveling: Impact on Hezbollah and the “Shiite corridor.” 25:30 – Biblical lens: Prophecies from Isaiah and Zechariah. 33:50 – The role of Christians: Standing with Israel and engaging in prayer and action. 40:15 – Final thoughts: Watchfulness, boldness, and trusting in God's plan. This is a critical moment for Israel and the nations. Let's stay watchful, prayerful, and bold in support of God's people. As always, we encourage you to stand as a light, a voice, and a blessing. For more insights and updates, subscribe to The Jewish Road Podcast and join us in praying for the peace of Jerusalem. Shalom Yerushalayim.

Join Joe McDonald as he expands on the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, diving into the critical practice of ongoing self-awareness in Steps 10 & 11 AA. In this session, Joe explores the necessity of continuing to watch for selfishness, dishonesty, resentment, and fear, not only in others but within ourselves.“So it should continue for our lifetime—continue to watch for selfishness, dishonesty, resentment, and fear. If I'm going to continue, when did I start? And this is a trick question, so think about it. They're not talking about personal inventory. They're telling me now to watch. When did I learn to watch for selfishness, dishonesty, resentment, and fear? Yeah, from the first conscious time on earth, I could spot selfishness, dishonesty, resentment, and fear in you good. But what I did not know is I was seeing you through the lens of my thoughts. So what I'm going to do if I'm going to be a good servant is I've got to discipline my thoughts so I'm not judging you. So I'm going to continue to watch for selfishness, dishonesty, resentment, and fear.”The Big Book reminds us that the key to a successful recovery journey is continuous growth and vigilance. This process of self-examination is a lifelong commitment, one that requires constant discipline of our thoughts and emotions. As we grow in the spirit, we learn to recognize our own defects and make course corrections as needed.Join us as Joe McDonald reads and expands on the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, offering deeper understanding and practical advice for those on their recovery journey.

Jesus warned his disciples to be watchful. The last days will lull people to sleep - to become spiritually apathetic and lethargic. Immorality, the cares of life, persecutions, and worldliness will influence Christians, turning many away from the truth. We must take heed, and remain watchful, lest he come and find us sleeping on the job.
