62. Trust the Lord, not the means
In this episode we talk about guarding against placing our trust just in the means by which God speaks to us and moves in our lives instead of in God Himself. It can be easy to put our hope in a method or formula, but we must remember that it is God who worked through those things in the first place, and our hope must always remain in Him and not in the methods by which He worked.You can find the book that I mentioned HERE.Scriptures used:1 Samuel 4:1-4Exodus 25:21-22Psalm 139:7-10Joshua 3:14-17Joshua 6:1-71 Samuel 4:5-91 Samuel 4:10-111 Kings 181 Samuel 5Psalm 46:1Psalm 91:4Psalm 34:18Psalm 30:11Proverbs 3:5-6Psalm 127:1Proverbs 21:31Psalm 33:16-19Psalm 44:5-6Psalm 121:1-2Psalm 62:5-6Support the showIf you feel so led, you can support the podcast by clicking HERE or by clicking the "Support the show" button above.

61. Who's carrying you to Jesus?
In this episode we talk about the need of transparent and vulnerable community and asking others to carry us to Jesus in prayer.Scriptures referenced:Mark 2:1-12Mark 1:351 Corinthians 12:12-27John 13:34-35John 13:13-17Galatians 6:2Romans 12:15James 5:16James 4:6Matthew 23:12Philippians 2:5-11Matthew 7:7Hebrews 4:162 Corinthians 1:3-11Ephesians 6:18-20**CORRECTIONS/CLARIFICATIONS**When I said that we should publicly acknowledge that we don't have it all together, I didn't mean sharing our struggles indiscriminately. I meant sharing it with someone, and simply by bringing another person into the scenario, we have made it "public" as opposed to it simply being a private battle that no one knows about.Support the showIf you feel so led, you can support the podcast by clicking HERE or by clicking the "Support the show" button above.
