Faith Talks

Let's talk about some practical things you can do to get closer to God! You have to make a full and intentional decision for the Lord in this season. Just like the prodigal son, the decision to go back home was his to make. There's a denying of self involved in the process that will always be a part of our journey's with Jesus 

Matthew 16:24 - Then Jesus said to his disciples, “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me.

How do we navigate difficult relationships with our parents as christians? In today's episode we'll talk about healing, setting healthy boundaries & praying for our parents. Our God is able to heal and restore what's been broken!! 

Wrong focus can get us to fix our eyes on everything we don't have in this season. For many of us our breakthrough's are tied to us fixing our gaze from what we don't have back onto what we DO have! Back onto Jesus! What DO you have? What can God multiply? 

Bible verses mentioned:
2 Kings 4:1-6 
John 6:5-9
James 4:2-3

We sometimes become so frustrated when we don't 'feel' on fire for God. Chasing the fire feeling becomes our main pursuit. Looking at scripture today we can see that in order to 'feel' that fire, we have to stand on God's truth in faith first. The feeling is a byproduct of the presence of Jesus, not the other way around. Let's change the order! 

Walking through rock bottom seasons of our lives is so difficult as christians. How can we walk through the valley without camping there? There is so much more God has for you! Fix your eyes on Jesus and let him do what only he can do!
