Descripción

What if the moment God seemed most cruel turned out to be the most loving thing He ever did for you? In this deeply moving episode of Supernatural Prayer Stories, Rick Osborne sits down with Jenny Wise Black — licensed marriage and family therapist and founder of MediaTalks.net — for one of the most raw, honest, and theologically stunning conversations the show has ever had. Jenny came prepared with safe answers. Instead, she chose to share her deepest, truest stories. What followed left both of them in tears. Story One: The Candle At 23, Jenny was on fire for God — deep in ministry, deep in the Word, deeply devoted. Then a devastating experience with a church community left her crushed and confused, unable to distinguish between how people were treating her and how God felt about her. Lying face-down on her basement floor with her Bible open, she showed God the tiny birthday-candle flame that was her remaining love for Him and said, "Please be gentle — it's about to go out." Then God blew it out. What followed was seven years of not opening her Bible. And what God whispered to her years later in five stolen minutes at a Target Starbucks — while she had a grocery cart and somewhere to be — is one of the most beautiful revelations of grace you will ever hear. "That was your love for me. Not my love for you. And my love for you can never go out." Story Two: The Miracle When Jenny's 26-year-old son Brandon suffered a concussion that left him functioning for only 20 minutes a day, she prayed the prayer every parent knows: "If I only get one miracle, Lord — let it be this." What happened next wasn't a dramatic divine intervention from the sky. It was something she almost missed — God inviting her into co-creation, her mind assembling puzzle pieces no one else could see, leading to an experimental treatment that brought Brandon back to 90% in three days. And during the months he was nearly comatose, Brandon wrote a book — currently titled While I Was Sleeping — about discovering his value when he had nothing to offer. Also in this conversation: * Why Jenny carries a "Wise Phone" instead of a smartphone — and what it's doing for her prayer life * The simple household boundary exercise that will change how you think about who you let into your most vulnerable spaces * Why she believes constant digital noise may be the most overlooked threat to our ability to hear God * How God uses painful seasons — not despite His love, but because of it — to orient us away from people-pleasing and toward the truth of who He says we are This is an episode you'll want to listen to twice. 🌐 Learn more about Jenny's work: mediatox.net [http://mediatox.net/] http://mediatox.net/️ Supernatural Prayer Stories is part of the Face to Face with God broadcast with Rick Osborne — real stories of people who pray and expect God to show up. 🔔 Subscribe and never miss an episode.

God Wants to Scare People With How Blessed You Are | How to Live in All of Father's Promises (S3E8)

What if God's dream for your life is so big, so overflowing, so unmistakably supernatural — that it actually frightens the people around you? Not because of you, but because of Him? In this episode of Face to Face with God, Rick Osborne opens up Ephesians 3:20 — one of the most explosive promises in all of Scripture — and shows you that the God who says He wants to do "far beyond what you can ask, think, or imagine" is not speaking in modest terms. The Amplified version alone will stop you in your tracks: infinitely beyond your highest prayers, desires, thoughts, hopes, or dreams. And He means every word. In this episode, Rick unpacks: * Why the New Covenant means God no longer says "I will be your God if" — and what it means that it's now an unconditional "I will be their God" * The three areas of promise most Christians only cherry-pick from — and why God wants you walking in all three simultaneously * What Hebrews 8, Philippians 2:13, and Ephesians 3:20 are all saying together — and why the power already at work inside you is the same resurrection power that raised Christ from the dead * The Jeremiah 33 promise that God wants to bless His people so visibly and so dramatically that the nations around them will fear and tremble — not at the people, but at the God they serve * Why Rick realized during his 10-year season with Jesus that even as a "big vision person," he was thinking way too small * A personal prophetic word for two specific people dreaming about owning their own home — and why God says stop thinking it's asking too much This isn't a message about claiming prosperity or working harder for blessings. It's a message about waking up to the size of the God who already lives inside you — and finally starting to dream with Him at the scale He's been waiting for. Ask big. Dream big. He wants to show off. 🌐 Ready to go deeper?

God Gave Him a Heads-Up Before the Battle Even Started | Rick Tarrant — Supernatural Prayer Stories

What if God whispered a Scripture into your heart the morning your baby was born — before you had any idea that by afternoon, his life would be hanging in the balance? In this moving and surprisingly personal episode of Supernatural Prayer Stories, host Wally Kassebaum sits down with Rick Tarrant — Memphis-based voiceover legend, producer, former worship leader, and the voice behind hundreds of radio stations, Sirius XM campaigns, and national TV ads — for a conversation that starts warm and funny and ends with every listener reaching for a tissue. Rick has been in the voice business since he was 15 years old. But the story that defines his faith has nothing to do with a microphone. Story One — The Morning God Just Showed Up On an ordinary morning, alone in his house, Rick put on a worship album and experienced something he still struggles to put into words. No voice, no vision — just a thickness that wasn't heavy, a presence that was unmistakably God. He tried to recreate it the next day with the same music at the same time. Nothing. What Rick took away from that moment is something he carries to this day: you can't manufacture a formula for God's presence, but you can stay in a posture of gratitude — and when you do, it's amazing how God follows you around. Story Two — "Stand and See the Deliverance of the Lord" On the morning of September 5th, 1986, Rick was having a quiet time in his living room reading 2 Chronicles 20 when a verse leapt off the page: "Stand and see the deliverance of the Lord. The battle is not yours." He had no idea why. Things were going well. He and his wife Christie were headed to the hospital that day to have their second child. Within hours of holding his newborn son Michael for the first time — for less than 20 seconds before the nurse whisked him away — a doctor arrived with devastating news. A heart valve problem. NICU. And when Rick asked how long Michael might be hospitalized, the doctor's response was chilling: "Well, if he survives… you're looking at six months." What followed were two of the most grueling weeks of Rick's life — prayer chains, missionary friends calling from Colombia, Christian rock bands praying backstage before concerts, a little stuffed teddy bear he carried as a point of contact, and Rick driving toward the hospital in tears singing "I am not afraid, I am not dismayed" — not because he felt it, but because he was clinging to it. One night, the ventilator failed and Dr. Arendale hand-pumped air into Michael's lungs all night long to keep him breathing. Then Michael turned around. No surgery. Home in two weeks instead of six months. When Rick asked the doctor if this kind of recovery was normal, the doctor stood there rubbing his goatee and said two words: "Most unusual." Rick still believes that was doctor-speak for miracle. This episode also includes: * Why Rick says that even through his darkest days — including the devastating loss of his first grandson after just 48 hours — he could never deny his faith. "That sealed the deal for me." * How the Scripture recording project Rick made for someone else — Words of Encouragement, Bible verses set to meditational music — became the very thing that carried him through the night when he lost his radio show of 20 years * Rick's practical wisdom on gratitude as a lifestyle — and why staying grateful keeps you living in awareness of God's presence * A genuinely funny delivery room story from Wally that almost ends with him passing out God doesn't always warn you a storm is coming. But sometimes He does. And when He does, you hold on to that word with everything you have. 🎙️ Connect with Rick Tarrant: * Voice work: ricktarrant.com [http://ricktarrant.com] * Scripture meditations: affirmingwords.com [http://affirmingwords.com] 🎙️ Supernatural Prayer Stories is part of the Face to Face with God broadcast with Rick Osborne — real stories of people who pray and expect God to show up. 🔔 Subscribe and never miss an episode.

From Hope to Habitation: The Key to Living in Nonstop Fulfillment of Every Promise | S3E8

Here is your Captivate podcast title and description for Episode 8: CAPTIVATE TITLE: From Hope to Habitation: The Key to Living in Nonstop Fulfillment of Every Promise | S3E8 CAPTIVATE DESCRIPTION: What if you woke up every single morning already living inside the fulfilled promises of God — not chasing them, not begging for them, just walking in them? That's not a fantasy. That's what Rick Osborne calls the Promise Life, and in this episode he shares the key that unlocks it. Rick opens with a vision that will stop you in your tracks: "Every promise of God that you've read in the Word of God is already taking place in your life. You're already inside the promised life. That's where the Father wants us to live." But here's what religion never told you — God isn't a genie, and prayer isn't fast food. The reason some promises seem delayed isn't punishment or neglect. It's a Father who loves you too much to hand you something you're not yet ready to carry. In this powerful teaching, Rick unpacks: Faith and Perseverance — Drawing from Hebrews 6, Rick shows how Abraham waited patiently and obtained the promise — not because he performed perfectly, but because he trusted his Father through the process. Biblical hope isn't "I hope so" — it's a solid anchor that reaches behind the curtain into the very presence of God. He's Your Father, Not a Genie — Using Deuteronomy 30, Rick paints a stunning picture of a God who doesn't just bless from a distance — He circumcises your heart, causes you to love Him, and then makes you abundantly prosperous. The transformation and the blessing come together. You can't separate them. Maturity and the Promise Life — From Philippians 2, Rick delivers one of his most memorable insights: "A test of faith is actually a test of maturity." A good Father doesn't hand a child everything they want before they're ready to handle it. He grows them up into their dream. The promises don't get smaller as you grow — they get bigger. Rick also shares a deeply personal moment — 16 years of being fathered by God, one step at a time, and what that progressive transformation has looked like in his own life. This isn't theory. This is testimony. The episode closes with a healing declaration over elbows and knees — and an invitation to stop visiting the promises and start living in them. Scriptures covered: Hebrews 6:11-15, 18-19 | Deuteronomy 30:6, 8-9 | Philippians 2:12-16 Key quote from Rick: "Believe and trust Him to father you. The more He teaches me and fathers me, the more I change from the inside out — and that is the greater blessing." What listeners will gain: A completely new way of seeing seasons of waiting, a practical understanding of how maturity and promises work together, and a renewed confidence that Father is not withholding — He is preparing.

Two Bags of Clothing to $50 Million — What Happens When You Tell God "This Is Yours" | Pavel Bosovik — Supernatural Prayer Stories

What if the turning point of your entire life — and your business — came down to one sentence prayed in desperation? "God, this is your business. I'm just a steward." In this inspiring episode of Supernatural Prayer Stories, Rick Osborne sits down with Pavel Bosovik — founder of 27 North, builder of premium expedition vehicles, employer of nearly 100 people, and a man who started with almost nothing because his family literally arrived in America as refugees with 11 children and two bags of clothing between them. But before Pavel built anything, God built something in him. The Salvation Story: In college, Pavel hit rock bottom — wrong friends, failing grades, and what he describes as zero desire to live. He prayed one desperate sentence: "God, give me one more chance." His sister, a law student who'd been faithfully inviting him to church every Sunday, finally got him to agree to one six-hour conference — and by the end, all 70+ of his theological questions had been answered by four different speakers. He couldn't wait for the altar call. He walked to the front mid-session, gave his life to Christ, and stood up from prayer a visibly different person. His professors noticed. His dean noticed. Even his friends noticed — including one who called him later and said, "One day I want you to come back and lead me to Christ too." The Business Miracle: Years later, sitting on the edge of his bed with four foster kids, living paycheck to paycheck, Pavel felt God calling him to start a business. No capital. No runway. Just a question from God that echoed Moses and Elijah: "What do you have?" So he made a list. Sold the house. Sold the car. Started renovating RVs in his mother's garage with $10,000 and a prayer. When the cash ran out about a year in, a complete stranger found him online and said God had put it on his heart to wire a deposit — urgently, before the new year. It arrived within hours. Day by day, week by week, God kept showing up. 27 North has now delivered around $50 million in product, with projections to match that in a single year. In this conversation, Pavel also shares: * Why he believes being born into poverty is one of the greatest competitive advantages a person can have * The foster family miracle — how God answered his fleece prayer and reunited four children with their birth parents within weeks, clearing the way for the leap of faith * The elderly couple with three years of good health left whose brand-new RV was totaled by a spilled thermos of coffee — and how saying yes to them changed the trajectory of 27 North * Why he builds RVs with the same philosophy he applies to faith, marriage, and family: if you build it knowing there's no turning back, it has to make it to its final destination * A simple, powerful prayer for anyone who feels like they have nothing left to bring to God — and why that's exactly where miracles begin Stop looking at what you don't have. Lift up what you do have. Watch what God does with it. 🚐 Learn more about 27 North: the27north.com [http://the27north.com] 🔍 Connect with Pavel personally: search Pavel Bosovik on any social platform 🎙️ Supernatural Prayer Stories is part of the Face to Face with God broadcast with Rick Osborne — real stories of people who pray and expect God to show up. 🔔 Subscribe and never miss an episode.
