Leave It At His Feet

When Faith Takes A Beating

Imagine being in a boat in the middle of a storm. The waves are rising. The wind is raging. The boat is filling with water. There seems to be nowhere to go. Scary? Now imagine Jesus in that very same boat with you. Would you still be afraid? Life has a way of bringing storms we never expected. Sometimes they come in the form of health concerns, financial pressure, challenges at work, strained relationships, or a new project that feels bigger than our ability to handle. So what is the storm surrounding you today? * What's rocking your boat right now? * What mountain seems impossible to move? * What challenge is demanding all of your attention? * And are you focusing more on the problem—or on God's promises? In this episode, we explore one of the most powerful truths - God has promised that He will never leave us or forsake us. But how do we hold on to that promise when circumstances seem overwhelming? And what exactly is faith? Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.  - Hebrews 11:1 NKJV Faith is choosing to believe God's promises before you see the outcome. Faith is trusting what God's Word says about your situation, even when the evidence around you seems to say otherwise. What happens when we stop staring at the storm and start focusing on what God has spoken? What changes when we look beyond the mountain and trust the One who can move it? If your faith has taken a beating, if you've been discouraged by circumstances, or if you're struggling to see a way forward, this episode is a reminder that God's promises remain true—even in the middle of the storm. Because faith isn't the absence of challenges. It's choosing to trust God in the midst of them. If this episode speaks to you, share this message with someone who needs their faith strengthened today. Sometimes one reminder of God's promises is all it takes to help someone keep believing.

The New Covenant

A rainbow is often seen as something beautiful — a moment of colour across the sky after the rain. But did you know that the rainbow was never just a visual wonder. It was a sign of a covenant. From the very beginning, God established covenants with mankind — promises, pledges, and sacred commitments that revealed His heart toward humanity across generations. And He kept making these covenants with men until it was time for a ... A final covenant. A new covenant. One that would change everything. So what does the word “covenant” really mean? Is it simply an agreement? Or is it something deeper — a bond, a promise, a lasting commitment made by God Himself? “In that He says, “A new covenant,” He has made the first obsolete. Now what is becoming obsolete and growing old is ready to vanish away.” - Hebrews‬ ‭8‬:‭13‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ In this episode, we explore how God’s covenants unfold throughout the Bible, from Genesis to the New Testament, and why the New Covenant was sealed not with something temporary like silver or gold — but through the precious blood of Christ. • What is the true significance of the cross? • Why did redemption require such a price? • How does the rainbow connect to Jesus? • And what does the New Covenant mean for our lives today? The cross was never just a moment in history or a scene from a film. It was the fulfilment of an everlasting promise — a promise of redemption, grace, and reconciliation with God.

Leave It At His Feet

There are burdens many of us carry quietly every single day. Stress that never seems to switch off. Financial pressure. Mental exhaustion. Health concerns. The silent weight of trying to hold everything together while feeling completely alone. Sometimes life becomes so loud that we forget we were never meant to carry it all by ourselves. But God’s Word gives us a different invitation — to bring every burden, every anxiety, and every heavy thought to Him. “Come to Me, all who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Matthew 11:28 In this episode, we reflect on the promise of God’s peace — a peace that does not depend on circumstances, logic, or control. So what happens when we truly begin to leave it at His feet? * What does the Bible say about anxiety and fear? * How do we hold on to peace when life feels overwhelming? * What does it mean that God is with us always? * And how can the peace of God begin to guard our hearts and minds, even in difficult seasons? And the peace of God, which surpasses all comprehension, will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus. - Philippians 4:7 A peace that remains steady even when anxiety wants to take over. A peace that reminds us we are not abandoned, unseen, or forgotten. If you’ve been feeling weary, anxious, emotionally overwhelmed, or simply tired of carrying everything on your own, this conversation is a reminder that rest in Jesus is real. Sometimes the greatest act of faith is not holding everything together — but surrendering it to the One who already holds you.

Giving To God

Some things in life exist as unchanging fundamentals. The sun rises in the east. A day has 24 hours. Certain truths simply remain constant — whether we fully understand them or not. In the same way, there are foundational principles in God’s Kingdom that stand firm. And one of them is giving to God. But why does giving matter so much? Is it because God needs our money? Or is there something deeper behind it? In this episode, we reflect on one of the most powerful yet misunderstood principles in the Christian walk — giving as an act of worship, honour, faith, and obedience to God. Scripture describes giving as a sweet-smelling aroma pleasing to Him. Not because He lacks anything, but because giving reveals something about our heart, our trust, and our willingness to place Him above everything else. We live in a world where almost everything revolves around money. Logic tells us to hold tightly to it, protect it, and depend on it. But what happens when we choose to trust God’s Word above human logic? * What does giving really mean in God’s Kingdom? * Why does God take pleasure in it? * And what happens when we honour Him first, even when it doesn’t seem logical? “Bring all the tithes into the storehouse, That there may be food in My house, And try Me now in this,” Says the Lord of hosts, “If I will not open for you the windows of heaven And pour out for you such blessing That there will not be room enough to receive it.” - Malachi‬ ‭3‬:‭10‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ Listen to this week’s episode as we explore the promise behind giving to God, and what happens when worship goes beyond words and becomes an act of faith.

He Is Always With You

We worship a God who created everything — the heavens, the earth, the universe, and all that exists within it. A God so vast that even today, science is still trying to understand the depth and detail of His creation. And yet, the same God who created it all… created you. His Word reminds us that heaven and earth may pass away, but His Word will remain forever. A truth that has stood firm across generations — unchanging, unwavering, and alive. But what does that mean for us today, in the middle of our everyday lives? In this episode, we reflect on one of God's powerful promises — that God is always with us, and He will never leave nor abandon us. “For He Himself has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.” ‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭13‬:‭5‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ So what are you going through right now? • Are you facing a challenging situation at work or a looming deadline? • Do you feel like you’ve reached a dead end with no clear way forward? • Are you experiencing loneliness, uncertainty, or feeling empty? • Or are you just tired of the struggle, of the push and pull? This episode will remind you that you are not alone, not even for a moment. Jesus Himself understands what it means to feel abandoned. And yet, His promise to us is clear: He will never leave us. So what changes when we truly begin to believe and acknowledge this truth? How does our perspective shift when we realise that the Creator of the universe is right there with us in every moment? Join in as we explore what happens when this simple yet powerful truth moves from something we know… to something we can truly live by. Because sometimes, the greatest comfort and strength comes from remembering this — He is with you, always.
