In this thought-provoking episode, we delve into the intricate and often overlooked aspect of our well-being: the health of our souls. Join us as we explore the deep, inner dimensions of what it means to lead a truly fulfilling and balanced life.

In this thought-provoking episode of the Pre-Experience podcast, we embark on a journey to unravel one of the most profound and enduring mysteries of human existence: the soul. What is the soul, and how do we even begin to define it?

Join us for an episode that invites you to ponder the profound, seek answers to timeless questions, and discover the wisdom in the divine act of resting. "Why Rest, God?" is a conversation that transcends religious boundaries and speaks to the universal human need for balance, reflection, and rejuvenation in an ever-demanding world.

Tune in to the Pre-experience podcast and explore the divine perspective on rest that could transform the way you approach your own life and well-being.

Could you be the reason to why you're not experiencing rest?

Is unbelief the root cause to why you're experiencing rest; if so, work on your belief system.

Hebrew 3:7-18 NIV

Warning Against Unbelief

7 So, as the Holy Spirit says:

“Today, if you hear his voice,
8     do not harden your hearts
as you did in the rebellion,
    during the time of testing in the wilderness,
9 where your ancestors tested and tried me,
    though for forty years they saw what I did.
10 That is why I was angry with that generation;
    I said, ‘Their hearts are always going astray,
    and they have not known my ways.’
11 So I declared on oath in my anger,
    ‘They shall never enter my rest.’ ”[b]

12 See to it, brothers and sisters, that none of you has a sinful, unbelieving heart that turns away from the living God. 13 But encourage one another daily, as long as it is called “Today,” so that none of you may be hardened by sin’s deceitfulness. 14 We have come to share in Christ, if indeed we hold our original conviction firmly to the very end.15 As has just been said:

“Today, if you hear his voice,
    do not harden your hearts
    as you did in the rebellion.”[c]

16 Who were they who heard and rebelled? Were they not all those Moses led out of Egypt? 17 And with whom was he angry for forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose bodies perished in the wilderness? 18 And to whom did God swear that they would never enter his rest if not to those who disobeyed? 19 So we see that they were not able to enter, because of their unbelief.

Have you ever been in a season of your life where everyone seems to be succeeding, but you are in a stillness?

Psalms 37:7 informs us to rest even while the world's "wicked" is "succeeding." and wait on the Lord.

Psalms 37:7 NKJV

Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for Him; Do not fret because of him who prospers in his way, Because of the man who brings wicked schemes to pass.

** Take a moment to read the entire chapter**

It was in my spirit to check on you.

How are you doing in this season of your life?

Take a moment to pray with me concerning you! If you need me, do not hesitate to contact me.

Most likely, the Holy Spirit is absent if you're struggling with maintaining rest. One of God's promises is that you will find rest where his spirit is present. You're not alone in carrying the burdens of being overwhelmed and burnt out; take the rest of the Lord today.

Exodus 33: 14-16

14 And he said, My presence shall go with thee, and I will give thee rest.

15 And he said unto him, If thy presence go not with me, carry us not up hence.

16 For wherein shall it be known here that I and thy people have found grace in thy sight? is it not in that thou goest with us? so shall we be separated, I and thy people, from all the people that are upon the face of the earth.

Do you understand the true meaning of rest? Society has taught us to work and hustle, but it hasn’t taught us to rest. In this episode, I will teach you the foundations of authentic rest. Learn the seven types of rest and how they’re essential to your well-being and caring for your soul.

Did you know that desire that we rest? Even he rested on the seventh day, so why do you continue to work in exhaustion? As we begin to uproot habits and ideologies that hinder us from caring for our souls.

Psalms 127:2

2 In vain, you rise early and stay up late, toiling for food to eat— for he grants sleep to those he loves.

As we prepare to unite for ESCAPE 2.0, I believe every retreat requires a pre-experience, and I’m excited to announce the ESCAPE 2.0 The Pre- Experience podcast. This will allow us to create an atmosphere that will enable us to rest and experience transformation during the retreat.
