What is child dedication? Why is it important? Come along with me as I answer these questions & also share our personal journey of how our kids' dedications came to be.

What does the Lord tell us about submission to Him? What does the world say about submission? How do we practively live this out? Find out these answers + what submission has to do with yielding & surrendering here.

In this episode we will dive into what it means to "count the cost." Jesus tells us it will cost to be a disciple, but what does this look like practically in this day & age?

‭

[10] Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

- Matthew‬ ‭5:10‬ ‭NIV‬

Some people are being silenced & stepping back because of fear of being persecuted or maybe they already have. We are called to make disciples & it's important to not let the enemy's schemes, like "fear of man" lead us into disobedience. Be encouraged because those who are persecuted on behalf of God, He calls blessed. We have an eternal reward waiting for us in Heaven.

The Lord gave me a word & I had to get it out. Be aware of counterfeit freedom. Sin can & mostly feels "good," We've gotta let go of the mindset - "If it feels good, do it." True freedom can feel uncomfortable at first, but the Lord's ways are always best.

In this episode, you will learn what the word of God says about who you are. What is your identity rooted in - your career, being a mom/dad, an accomplishment, who the world says you are or aren't? As Christians, we can stand firm in who God says we are. This will help us stand firm in truth & not be decieved by the enemy & his attacks on our identity.

This is a letter I received as a “download”from the Lord. It is the first one I ever received, just 5 months ago from the time I’m uploading & publishing this episode. Of course their is some specifics to me within this. I still wanted to read it verbatim as not to dilute what the Holy Spirit shared with me. With that being said, I strongly feel the Lord saying to get this out to the public. Others are meant to hear these words for their specific needs as well. Praying this blesses you. More to come in future episodes.

The Lord was speaking to me & I HAD to record in obedience. As typical you can expect a “not so professional, but REAL life” talk from your friend - Nickie. All glory to God! ✨
