Stop Looking at the Problem and Look at the Promise

When God Is With You, Fear Has to Go

Good morning and welcome to Wake Up with Pastor Scot and Pastor Jason. Today we’re in Judges 6:12, and this episode is all about what changes when you realize that God is with you. The angel of the Lord appears to Gideon and says, “The Lord is with you, mighty warrior.” That is such a powerful word because Gideon did not feel like a mighty warrior at all. He felt small, hidden, and unqualified. But God called out who he really was before Gideon could see it for himself. Pastor Scot and Pastor Jason remind us that what makes us mighty is not our own strength. It is the fact that God is with us. When you know your Father is with you, fear loses its power. You stop looking at the size of the problem and start remembering the strength of the One who is standing with you. This message is also a reminder that God often calls people higher before they feel ready. Gideon was hiding, but God was already speaking identity, courage, and purpose over him. The same is true for us. You may feel overlooked, weak, or unsure, but God sees more in you than you currently see in yourself. He knows who He created you to become. Pastor Scot and Pastor Jason also point out that when you know God is with you, you can walk into your day differently. You can face challenges with confidence, push through fear, and keep moving forward even when things feel impossible. Jesus already went through forsaking, lack, and the curse of sin so that you would not have to live under those things. God is with you, and He is not leaving. If you feel weak today, hear this clearly: the Lord is with you, mighty warrior. You are not alone, and you are not without help. God is with you, and that changes everything.

Stop Looking at the Problem and Look at the Promise

Good morning and welcome to Wake Up with Pastor Scot and Pastor Holly. Today we’re in Isaiah 26:3, and this episode is all about perfect peace and what it takes to keep your mind steady in the middle of life’s problems. The Scripture says, “You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in You.” That is such a powerful promise for anyone dealing with stress, worry, or anxiety. Pastor Scot and Pastor Holly talk about how peace does not come from staring at the problem. Peace comes from keeping your mind fixed on God. The moment Peter looked at the storm, he began to sink. But as long as his eyes were on Jesus, he was able to do the impossible. The same is true for us. When we keep our focus on God’s promises instead of our circumstances, peace begins to rule our hearts. This message is also a reminder that peace takes intention. You cannot just let your thoughts go anywhere they want and expect to stay full of peace. Your mind has to be guided. It has to be brought back to hope, truth, and God’s promises again and again. Over time, that becomes a new pattern of thinking. What used to pull you into fear starts losing its power because your mind has learned how to return to trust. Pastor Holly brings out how important it is to dig your heels in and stay planted in faith. There is a place in your heart where you decide, “I am not moving. I am not letting fear shake me. I am not giving worry the final word. I trust God, and I am staying right here.” That kind of steadfastness opens the door to the peace that only God can give. If you need peace today, keep your mind on Him. Trust Him. Refuse to let the problem become your focus. God still gives perfect peace to the heart and mind that stay fixed on Him.

When God Becomes Your Refuge

Good morning and welcome to Wake Up with Pastor Scot and Pastor Holly. Today we’re in Psalm 34:8, and this episode is all about moving from simply hearing about God’s goodness to actually experiencing it for yourself. The Scripture says, “Taste and see that the Lord is good. Blessed is the one who takes refuge in Him.” That is such a powerful invitation because God never intended for us to just observe His goodness from a distance. He wants us to know it personally. Pastor Scot and Pastor Holly talk about the difference between observation and participation. You can watch other people be blessed. You can hear about miracles. You can sit in church and see worship happening all around you. But there is another level when you step in, participate, and experience God for yourself. That is what it means to taste and see. This message is also a reminder that taking refuge in God changes everything. When the world is your source, people can let you down, opportunities can disappoint you, and life can feel unstable. But when God is your refuge, your source, your provider, and your encourager, you begin to live from a place of security instead of fear. You stop depending on people to be what only God can be in your life. Pastor Scot and Pastor Holly also encourage us to make space for God in a real and practical way. Prayer is not just a list of wants. It is time spent building relationship. Worship is not just watching songs happen. It is entering in. Quiet time is not wasted time. It is how we draw close, meditate on His Word, and learn to recognize His presence in everyday life. If you want more than just a secondhand faith, let this encourage you today. Draw close to God. Enter in. Make room for His presence. Do not just see that the Lord is good. Taste and see for yourself. Partner with us at wakeuptv.tv Don’t forget to like, share, and subscribe.

What to Say in the Middle of the Storm

Good morning and welcome to Wake Up with Pastor Scot and Pastor Holly. Today we’re in Micah 7:7, and this episode is all about making a faith declaration in the middle of uncertainty. The Scripture says, “But as for me, I watch in hope for the Lord, I wait for God my Savior, my God will hear me.” That is such a strong and personal statement of trust. Pastor Scot and Pastor Holly talk about how important it is to decide what kind of person you are going to be when life gets difficult. Other people may live in fear, stress, frustration, and doubt, but as for me, I will hope in the Lord. As for me, I will wait for God. As for me, I will believe that my God hears me. This message is a reminder that declarations matter. What you say in the middle of a storm helps shape how you walk through it. When you declare that your hope is in God, that He hears your prayers, and that He is still moving on your behalf, it pulls your heart and mind back into alignment with faith. Pastor Scot and Pastor Holly also point out that these declarations help build self-control in your thought life. Even if you drift for a moment into fear or discouragement, when you have already decided who you are and what you believe, you can come right back to it. You remind yourself, “No, this is not who I am. I am a person who hopes in the Lord. I am a person who waits on God. I am a person who trusts that He hears me.” If you are walking through something hard right now, let Micah 7:7 become your declaration. As for me, I will hope in the Lord. I will wait for God my Savior. My God will hear me. Partner with us at wakeuptv.tv Don’t forget to like, share, and subscribe.

God’s Timing Is Better Than Yours

Good morning and welcome to Wake Up with Pastor Scot and Pastor Holly. Today we’re in Romans 12:12, and this episode is all about what to do in the waiting. The Bible tells us to be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, and faithful in prayer. That is such a powerful picture of how we are supposed to live when life is not moving on our timeline. Pastor Scot and Pastor Holly talk about how often we end up in places we did not expect. A job, a season, a struggle, or a delay may not make sense in the moment, but God is still working in it. Just like Joseph, there are seasons where God is growing you, teaching you, and preparing you for something bigger than you can currently see. This message is a reminder that hope is not wishful thinking. Hope is expectation. It is the confidence that God is good, that He is still moving, and that His timing is better than ours. In the middle of affliction, instead of slipping into complaint, discouragement, or fear, we are called to stay faithful in prayer and keep talking to God. Pastor Holly shares how prayer shifts everything. What starts as frustration can turn into peace when you begin bringing it to God honestly, thankfully, and faithfully. Prayer is not just about asking. It is about reconnecting with the truth that God is still in control, still listening, and still working on your behalf. Sometimes God’s answer is not no. It is just not now. And in that waiting, there is growth, maturity, trust, and preparation happening inside of you. If you are in a waiting season right now, let this encourage you. Be joyful in hope. Be patient in affliction. Be faithful in prayer. God is still working, and His best is worth waiting for. Partner with us at wakeuptv.tv Don’t forget to like, share, and subscribe.
