Faith is a Verb

The Deceitful Heart

The heart is the control center of a person, and it is always deceitful...without YHWH Like we said in this weeks episode, the concept here is simple. The heart will always lead us the wrong way- but YHWH will always lead us to His truth. Application of this is where we get tripped up- it requires incredible patience and fortitude to stop and pray before making any decision. Especially in those high emotion moments when the last thing we want to do is put our emotions away. That is all apart of the refining process though, we must walk right into it ready to be changed from the inside out. Letting scripture define scripture, we see this concept is woven all throughout scripture from beginning to end. It is repeated time and time again for a reason- He wants us to grasp it. He is begging us to understand. YHWH's wisdom is perfection- lean into it.

Recognizing the Donkeys in our Life

Sometimes, the Delay is Deliverance. We need to be repeating this phrase daily. Every time you feel as if YHWH isn't paying attention- or not moving quick enough- or maybe even He just doesn't care about the situation you are praying over....get into the habit of looking at every area of your life how YHWH does. What is He delivering me from? Is this roadblock actually His mercy? Is He calling me to slow down and hear Him more? Have I fumbled the blessings He has given me? Is this a Holy interruption? We need to stop trying to force our way forward on the path WE want, and start understanding that the wilderness is most often for our own good. We need to start recalling that faith means trust- trusting that His will His plan His way is far better than we could ever understand. We need to start accepting the Fathers refining fire- embrace that process and allow yourself to be changed mightily. If you are someone - like Amanda- who is currently satruggling through a very real life scenario that is tearing you apart. Something that is causing you to question. Something that makes you feel like you cannot possibly continue on....perhaps it is time you show that faith you have deep in your soul. Ask Him what it is He needs you to do/learn/change and then do it. What a way to end a trial faster than you were before! Let us all walk in faith this week- remembering that YHWH is calling us somewhere for a VERY good reason. Just put one foot in front of the other and let it be.

Sowing Mustard, Growing Faith

Faith is divinely inspired by the spirit through the word of YHWH...So it's time to get in it. As you heard in this weeks episode, this topic came about in such a simple- small as a mustard seed- kind of way. And then it grew deep rooted in all of our hearts. Because what YHWH does best is create. We drop a seed- and He tends it like only He can. If you are like the three of us, you have spent your entire life thinking the reference to mustard seed faith meant small faith. Tiny faith doing big things. But hopefully after this weeks dive into the meaning behind such simple words- you are clearly able to see the profound meaning that has been there all along. When we allow the Father to tend to the seeds- the garden grows behind anything we could ever imagine. Much like the mustard plant, taking over everything around. But just as Amanda warned us, we are made to be here tending to that garden as well. We have to pluck the weeds of doubt. We have to be watchful for fungus and root rot. We have to be vigilant in actively planting our belief and allowing it to grow into a tree that gives shade and shelter to everyone around us. Its a lot of responsibility right? But it comes with the most magnificent reward. Its worth it. Oh so very worth it.

Psalm 23

We've all heard this verse more times than we can count. In this weeks episode we took one of the most recognized Psalms and looked at it through a few different lenses. Isn't that what we all do with scripure- look at it through our own lens? We must be careful in doing so, as we don't want to lose the most important lens- YHWHs. While looking at Psalm 23, we applied the ancient Hebrew lens, Messianic lens, the lens of motherhood, and the lens we all apply when we are going through the muck at the worst parts of our lives. Whatever you are struggling through- remembering the words of Psalm 23- and how they point us to Messiah- will always be a healing salve on our wounds. He is there. He cares. He is walking with us. He wants us to be with Him. He forgives us. He loves us. So embrace the Shepherd's call to trust His provision and leadership.

Resisting Temptation

Temptation is not sin in itself, but yeilding to it is. We are all grownups here- people who are actively seeking out how to live life the way YHWH has asked us to...so I am going to be blunt here, just as we were in the episode itself. You have been given a job. Read His scripture, understand His word, apply it to your life. So thaty is exactly how we defeat our flesh. That is exactly how we resist temptation. We learn to hate it as He would hate it, and then we wont be able to imagine a life where we give in to those temptations. Will they disappear and never knock on our door again? Absolutely not. We will have to make this hard choice every single day. The choice to follow Him and deny this world. The choice to not live in rebellion. The choice to keep digging deeper and find His narrow path. The choice to seek other- better- things to do with our time than give in to temptation. As Amy reminded us in this weeks episode, we are guiding our children to live in righteousness. To do so better than we ever did ourselves. Thats the mission. As Amanda reminded us, Our "feelings" happen...but how we respond to those feelings matter. Whether you are suffering from the ever lurking sexual temptations on this world, or battling the emotional ones. Standing toe to toe with the physical temptation that threatens to take over your life, or falling to the social temptaion to "fit in"- it is time we stop holding sin to our chests. We must let it go and place our faith- and our trust- in YHWH the Most High and in His promises. He is our defender. He is our redeemer. He is our shalom. He is our strength. SO put down your high hand- and stop willfully and arrogantly rebelling against YHWH Scriptures referenced in this episode: 📖Luke 22:54-62 📖 Exodus 32:1-6 📖 James 4:7 📖 Ecclesiastes 4:12 📖 James 1:14-15 📖 Proverbs 22:6 📖 Matthew 4:1-11 📖Matthew 26:41 📖Psalm 101:3 📖 Genesis 39:12 📖 Proverbs 13:20 📖 1 Corinthians 10:13 📖 Galatians 6:9 📖Hebrews 10:26-27 📖 Numbers 15:30-31 📖 Deuteronomy 8:2 📖 1 Corinthians 6:18 📖 Psalm 119:11 📖 2 Corinthians 10:4-5 📖 Galatians 5:16-17 Resources mentioned in this episode: You can find us all here on our social accounts, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Amanda FB [https://www.facebook.com/amanda.schefflerauten]⁠, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Amy FB [https://www.facebook.com/amy.stennett.1]⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Tracee FB⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.facebook.com/traceesimpsonschaeffer?mibextid=LQQJ4d%26%238288%3B], ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Tracee IG [https://www.instagram.com/schaeffedthebestforlast/]⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Or shoot us an email at faithisaverb23@gmail.com We would love to hear from you! {Prayer request, topic ideas, just to say hi, anything at all} Also, you can find us all involved in the ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Rooted in His Word Ministry⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [http://rootedinhiswordministry.org/] You can contact the Ministry to join us in small group settings! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Way Guide⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://rootedinhiswordministry.org/the-guide] is another amazing resource you can locate on the website.
