Today on the Wise Wife Podcast, Natasha explores praying "in the Spirit," including speaking in tongues. We'll learn about the power of this form of prayer for personal edification, intercession, and spiritual warfare and talk about why it's important for EVERY believer. Come with expectation and FAITH that you can be baptized in the Holy Spirit!

In this episode, we near the conclusion of our Armor of God series by recapping what we’ve learned about standing firm against evil, as outlined in Ephesians 6. This isn’t metaphorical or abstract; it’s preparation for a literal spiritual battle raging over our souls, families, and legacies. We explore the Bible’s depiction of an organized, hierarchical demonic realm and how understanding this reality transforms the way we view spiritual tools like prayer, fasting, and the armor of God. Natasha addresses misconceptions about the spiritual realm, explaining its structure and emphasizing that our good works empower our side of the battle, not to earn God’s favor, but to move the needle in this unseen war. She also warns against the dangers of becoming prideful or fascinated with spiritual authority, urging listeners to remain rooted in Jesus, who alone gives us victory. This episode challenges listeners to see spiritual warfare as real, urgent, and relevant to their daily lives, while reminding them that Christ’s power enables them to stand firm and finish strong.

In this episode, Natasha continues the Armor of God series with a deep dive into the Helmet of Salvation. She challenges listeners to move beyond surface-level understanding of salvation and instead embrace its transformative power. Natasha explores how the enemy targets our identity, distorts our purpose, and uses pride or shame to separate us from God. She unpacks what it means to have an eternal mindset, how salvation equips us to finish strong, and why our identity in Christ is the key to victory over spiritual attacks, especially when we are being called to fight for our marriage without signs of hope in our natural circumstances. This episode is a must-listen for anyone seeking deeper faith, clarity of purpose, and unshakable confidence in their salvation.

In continuing our study on the Armor of God, Natasha emphasizes the importance of actively using faith as a shield against the enemy's attacks, allowing us to advance into battle rather than passively taking the hits.

Drawing parallels with Roman military strategies and Japanese samurai tactics to underscore the need for discipline, resilience, and unwavering faith, Natasha also highlights the significance of viewing our hardships as God's gracious discipline.

With the shield of faith, we can be encouraged to charge into battle, trusting in God's promises and eternal rewards!

In this episode, Natasha reflects on how unprepared many of us are for marriage and the unrealistic expectations we can easily bring with us into our relationships. As we unpack the importance of allowing time and space for spiritual growth in both our husband and ourselves, Natasha takes us through the next piece of armor in our Armor of God series. Tune in to hear about the significance of preparing our heart and mind with the gospel of peace and how it will enable you to face the spiritual battles that come in both marriage and life.

When facing marriage breakdown, Natasha made the mistake of embracing self-righteousness and it only led to further destruction. In this episode, she explores the significance of true righteousness, found in Jesus, as she explores the breastplate of righteousness as a spiritual weapon.

Natasha delves into the meaning of righteousness, the importance of faith and love, and the relationship between belief, actions, and salvation. She also encourages listeners to understand God's character, and their own authority in Christ, as they seek breakthrough in their marriage.

The enemy tries to deceive us and prevent us from knowing the WHOLE truth. We saw it with Eve in the Garden and his tricks haven't changed much since then.

Today's episode emphasizes the significance of being able to discern real truth from partial and half-truths and how these half-truths can hinder our spiritual growth and understanding. For when we have the real truth, we can step out in confidence and clarity -- no more second guessing, no more fear of the consequences, no more being manipulated by the sinful actions of others.

Are you feeling totally overwhelmed at your circumstances? Are you tired of getting knocked down by the things your husband is saying or doing? In today's episode, Natasha shares a critical strategy to help shift your mindset from the natural realm -- what you see and hear -- to the spiritual realm. And it is in the spiritual realm where true and lasting change can happen!

The Bible tells us to not wage war the way the world does but to tap into the divine weapons we have through the authority given to us through Jesus. Today we explore the significance of the most powerful spiritual weapon available to us.

In addition to experiencing the "fullness of life" we read about in Ephesians 3:19, embracing this spiritual weapon also leads us to better understand our spiritual assignment.
