Don’t Let Envy Steal Your Joy

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.

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.

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.

Don’t Dwell on the Past

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.

Stop Forcing It and Start Trusting God

Good morning and welcome to Wake Up with Pastor Scot and Pastor Holly. Today we’re in Proverbs 16:3, where the Bible says, “Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and He will establish your plans.” This episode is all about surrendering your plans to God and trusting that His way is always better than your own. Pastor Scot and Pastor Holly talk about how easy it is to build our own plans, push our own timeline, and try to force life in the direction we think it should go. But when you truly commit your ways to God, something powerful begins to happen. He not only opens doors and establishes your steps, but He also starts shaping your thoughts so that your heart begins to agree with His will. This message is such a good reminder that giving your plans to God is not losing something. It is gaining something better. Sometimes what you think you want looks good in the moment, but when you trust God and let Him lead, you often look back later and realize His outcome was greater than anything you could have arranged on your own. His plan becomes the one you are most grateful for. Pastor Scot and Pastor Holly also make it personal. They talk about dating, marriage, future decisions, and learning not to settle for what seems available when God has something better prepared. When you stop doing life your way and start doing it His way, you position yourself for the right relationships, the right opportunities, and the right future. If you have been trying to make something happen in your own strength, let this encourage you today. Hand it over to God. Commit your plans to Him. Trust His timing. Trust His wisdom. Trust that His plan is still the best one. Partner with us at wakeuptv.tv Don’t forget to like, share, and subscribe.
