Beschreibung

Good morning and welcome to Wake Up with Pastor Scot and Pastor Holly. Today we’re in Isaiah 43:18-19, and this episode is all about letting go of the pain behind you so you can see the new thing God is doing in front of you. The Scripture says, “Forget the former things. Do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing.” That is such a powerful reminder that God is always moving forward, always working ahead, and always making a way, even in what feels like a wilderness season. Pastor Scot and Pastor Holly talk about how easy it is to replay the old things over and over again. The hurt, the breakup, the divorce, the mistake, the disappointment, the failure. When we keep dwelling there, it becomes hard to notice what God is doing now. But this message is a call to lift your eyes and stop staring at what was. God is not stuck in your past. He is already working in your future. This episode also brings out something really important. We tend to remember the painful former things more than the powerful ones. The Israelites walked through an unbelievable miracle at the Red Sea, yet still struggled to trust God afterward. David was different. He remembered what God had already done and used those memories to build faith for what was next. That is such a good challenge for all of us. Remember God’s goodness, but do not live trapped in old pain. If you are in a wilderness season right now, let this encourage you. God is still making a way. He is still bringing streams into dry places. He is still doing something new, even if you do not fully see it yet. Do not stay locked into what used to be. Lift your eyes. God is up ahead.

Episode Don’t Let People Change Who You Are Cover

Don’t Let People Change Who You Are

Good morning and welcome to Wake Up with Pastor Scot and Pastor Holly. Today we’re in Galatians 6:9, and this episode is all about not growing weary in doing what is right. Scripture tells us not to lose heart, not to faint, and not to give up, because in due season we will reap a harvest if we keep going. That is such a powerful reminder for anyone who feels tired, overlooked, or worn down in the middle of doing the right thing. Pastor Scot and Pastor Holly talk about how easy it is to get weary in relationships, at work, in marriage, in parenting, or just in life. You keep being kind. You keep giving grace. You keep showing up. You keep doing what is honorable and loving, but it can feel like nothing is changing. This message reminds us that just because the harvest has not shown up yet does not mean it is not coming. Like a farmer, you keep sowing, keep tending, and keep trusting the process. This episode also highlights something so important. Do not let other people change who you are. Just because someone is harsh does not mean you become harsh. Just because someone is unfair does not mean you stop being excellent. Just because someone is difficult does not mean you stop being loving. If your character changes every time your environment changes, then your identity is still too connected to people instead of to God. Pastor Scot and Pastor Holly also talk about the real battle being inside of us. So often the fight is not really with other people. The fight is with our own reactions, emotions, and impulses. David did this in the Psalms. He talked to himself. He corrected his own soul. He reminded himself of truth. Sometimes the strongest thing you can do is fight yourself and choose to keep doing right even when it is hard. You can do hard things. Keep being kind. Keep being faithful. Keep doing what is right. In due season, the harvest will come. Partner with us at wakeuptv.tv Don’t forget to like, share, and subscribe.

Episode Don’t Let Envy Steal Your Joy Cover

Don’t Let Envy Steal Your Joy

Good morning and welcome to Wake Up with Pastor Scot and Pastor Jason. Today we’re talking about celebrating the small victories in life and learning how to rejoice when good things happen, both for you and for other people. This episode is a great reminder that joy often gets stolen, not because God is not moving, but because we forget to notice the little wins right in front of us. Pastor Scot and Pastor Jason talk about how easy it is to overlook everyday blessings. A job, a cup of coffee, another day to breathe, a chance to grow, a simple answered prayer, even just getting through the day can all be victories worth noticing. But instead of celebrating those things, people often compare, complain, or focus on what someone else got that they did not. That kind of envy quietly robs peace and joy. This message also points out how important it is to celebrate the wins of other people. When someone else gets blessed, promoted, healed, restored, or favored, we have a choice. We can let envy rise up, or we can genuinely rejoice with them. That is one of the strongest ways to walk in love. When you learn to celebrate what God is doing in someone else’s life, you open your own heart to joy, peace, and gratitude. Pastor Scot and Pastor Jason use examples from Scripture and everyday life to show how often people miss the miracle because they are too focused on something small and negative. Instead of noticing the healing, they notice the inconvenience. Instead of rejoicing over the breakthrough, they criticize the details. This episode is a call to become someone who sees the good, celebrates the miracle, and chooses joy over jealousy. If you want more joy in your life, start celebrating the little wins. Celebrate what God is doing for you. Celebrate what He is doing for others. Learn to notice the victories, because they are everywhere.

Episode Why God’s Best Often Takes Time Cover

Why God’s Best Often Takes Time

Good morning and welcome to Wake Up with Pastor Scot and Pastor Holly. Today we’re in Isaiah 40:31, where the Bible says that those who wait on the Lord will renew their strength. This episode is all about trusting God’s timing, even when waiting feels frustrating, slow, or uncomfortable. Pastor Scot and Pastor Holly talk about how hard waiting can be in a world that wants everything instantly. We want fast answers, fast blessings, fast results, and fast direction. But God’s best often comes with a waiting process. Abraham waited. Joseph waited. David waited. And in each case, the waiting was not wasted. God was doing something in them before He brought them into what He had promised. This message is such a good reminder that waiting on God does not mean doing nothing. It means continuing to do what is right while trusting that God is still working. Maybe you are waiting for the right relationship, the right opportunity, a breakthrough in your finances, or an answer in your family. The encouragement here is not to settle just because you are tired of waiting. Stay faithful. Stay steady. Keep doing right. God’s best is worth the wait. Pastor Scot and Pastor Holly also point out that sometimes what we think we want in the moment is not actually what would be best for us. Time and space have a way of revealing that. As we wait on the Lord, our hearts and minds begin to catch up with His wisdom, and we often realize later that His plan was better than what we were trying to force. If you are in a waiting season right now, let this encourage you. God has not forgotten you. He is renewing your strength in the middle of the process, and what He has ahead for you is better than anything you could rush on your own.

Episode Put Away What Is Poisoning Your Peace Cover

Put Away What Is Poisoning Your Peace

Good morning and welcome to Wake Up with Pastor Scot and Pastor Holly. Today we’re in Ephesians 4:31, and this episode is all about letting go of bitterness, wrath, anger, and all the things that weigh down your heart. Scripture tells us to let those things be put away from us, or as another translation says, to banish them. That is such a strong word because it means they are not welcome to stay. Pastor Scot and Pastor Holly talk about how easy it is to hold on to hurt when people say something cruel, act unfairly, or leave you stunned by what they did. Life can absolutely be frustrating. People can be mean. But the key is not letting what they did settle into your heart and start shaping who you become. Bitterness may feel justified, but it is heavy, and you were never designed to carry it. This message is such a powerful reminder that holding onto bitterness does not hurt the other person nearly as much as it hurts you. It changes how you think, how you speak, how you respond, and what comes out of your heart. That is why forgiveness matters so much. Not because what happened was okay, but because you do not want someone else’s wrong to poison your future. Pastor Scot and Pastor Holly also point out that one of the ways you know healing is really happening is when you stop wishing bad on someone and can actually begin praying good for them. That may take work. It may take time. But that process matters. When you stop meditating on the wrong and start asking God to bless, help, and work in their life, something changes inside of you too. If there is bitterness, anger, or unforgiveness that has been hanging around too long, let today be the day you banish it. Put it away. Refuse to let it live in your heart any longer.
