Her Portion

Join Quortney as she encourages us as Christian women to rise up and declare the Word of God so that future generations know where to stand.

We have to fight back, with God’s Word against the things that society is trying to deem normal!

If it’s not normal or right, we should be know what God’s Word has to say about it and then declare it!

We need to take back the definition of normal! 

Stop giving in and let the world define our terms and let God define them!

Have you ever been knocked down by someone else or even your own thoughts?

Have you ever gone to God and asked for forgiveness, yet didn’t feel forgiven?

Have you ever wondered why basic things in the Christian life like going to church, reading your Bible or even prayer were SO difficult?

In this episode Hannah shares a short study from Proverbs that might help explain the answers to those questions.

We are all tempted to quit. We have all felt like we couldn’t get back up after taking a hard fall, Jesus makes the difference and oh the joy and peace He brings when we continue to get up and follow Him!

I fell in love with this phrase while reading Nehemiah. His grief over the condition of his city inspired him to action. 

Before Nehemiah rose up to rebuild the ruins, you find him being still.

James 4 tells us that if we humble ourselves in the sight of God, that “he shall lift you up.” I absolutely love this promise! He doesn’t just give us the promise, but gives us the ingredients to see this promise fruitful in our lives. 

Listen to this short episode as Jackie discusses this topic further.

Join Crystal as she kicks off this month's theme, Rise Up, by discussing Elijah's battle with discouragement. Elijah had witnessed God's Provision and God's Power (I Kings 17-18), and still he was afraid when Jezebel threatened his life. He ran away, isolating himself from everyone else (I Kings 19). Warren Wiersbe said, "Solitude only feeds discouragement and helps grow into self-pity, which is even worse." That's exactly what happened to Elijah. In his solitude,  he wanted to die, believing there was no one else serving the LORD and that he was all alone. However, God met him there and he was able to experience God's Presence.

I Kings 19:7 says,  "And the angel of the Lord...said, Arise and eat; because the journey is too great for thee."

"Arise and eat." This was only the beginning of the Lord's instruction on how to overcome discouragement.

"The journey is too great for thee." Elijah would need the LORD's help to battle discouragement...and so do we.

Listen in to hear how the LORD helped Elijah. He wants to do the same for us.

Did you know that there are many addictions out there that don’t involve any drugs or alcohol at all? 

Many people struggle with addictions that aren’t really talked about so much.

Join Hannah in this episode as she mentions a few of those addictions but really addresses finding freedom from ANY addiction through God’s Word.

Did you enjoy this episode? Let’s us know, we love to hear from you.

"Freedom isn't Free" is a popular phrase we often hear which causes us to think about the sacrifices our military men and women, along with their families, have made and continue to make to ensure the freedom we enjoy. As we consider the costs of our freedom, it should cause us to be thankful. 

Join Crystal in this episode as she takes some time to consider the phrase "Freedom isn't Free" when talking about our freedom in Christ. We are freed from sin, obligation to our flesh, and condemnation. However, we are also free to serve! Considering the sacrifice our Lord and Savior made on our behalf should cause us to be thankful and willing to walk in the freedom He has given us. 

"Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin. For he that is dead is freed from sin."
Romans 6:6-7

"But God be thanked, that ye were the servants of sin, but ye have obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine which was delivered you. Being then made free from sin, ye became servants of righteousness."
Romans 6:17-18

This episode discusses the freedom we already have in Christ. Many times, as we grow in our walk with the Lord we begin to think we have victory because of the things we do and don’t do. In contrast the Bible teaches two Biblical principles that help us know and understand that sweet victory we want to feel. 

Jackie discusses the freedom in Christ through the truth of God’s Word in Colossians 2:6-7.
“As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him: 
Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving.”
V. 10 “And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power.”

People sometimes get confused when we talk about Christian liberty. Christians use it as an excuse to live however they want  and the lost are confused by it. Join Quortney as she uses 1 Corinthians to show you exactly what the Bible teaches about our freedom in Christ. 

1 Corinthians 6:12 KJV
All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.

It's time for another bonus episode on the Her Portion Podcast!

Join Crystal as she shares a personal testimony about her recent battle with worrisome thoughts and the steps she took to overcome them. It wasn't easy, immediate, or even lasting--those pesky worrisome thoughts like to come back over and over again!

But God!

Through a focus on prayer and right thinking, the Lord helped her get victory and experience His peace during an uncertain time.

Prayer + Right Thinking = PEACE

Philippians 4:6-9 KJV

6 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.

7 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.

9 Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you.

Trust the Lord! It sounds so simple, but is it?

We all know we SHOULD trust the Lord. We even know in our hearts that we CAN trust the Lord. But sometimes we still struggle to trust Him.

Join Crystal as shares some practical steps to help us T.R.U.S.T. the Lord in every situation--whether a difficult trial or tragedy or something as simple as things not going our way.

O taste and see that the Lord is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him.
Psalm 34:8 KJV
