In this episode, we explore the life-changing shift from striving for God to living from His strength, presence, and Spirit. Drawing from the story of Samson, we talk about what it means to be stirred by God yet not truly sustained or filled by Him.

We unpack how the breath of God is the life of God, why patience and waiting matter, and why we must be immersed and filled before we ever step out front in ministry or leadership.

Finally, we reflect on Jesus’ stunning statement: “It is better for you that I go”—a reminder that the coming of the Holy Spirit is not just an advantage, but the very source of power we live from every day.
