Women in the Bible | Rebekah: Waiting on God or Taking Control?

Women in the Bible | Rebekah: Waiting on God or Taking Control?

What do we do when God’s promises seem delayed? Do we continue trusting Him, or do we begin taking matters into our own hands? In this episode of Where Faith Lives, we take a closer look at the life of Rebekah. While many people remember her for the events surrounding Isaac’s blessing, Scripture reveals a much fuller picture. We first meet a woman marked by kindness, hospitality, faith, and a willingness to obey God’s leading. Yet as her account unfolds, we also see the danger of allowing fear to move us ahead of God’s timing. Together, we’ll explore how God’s faithfulness remains constant even when imperfect people make imperfect choices. Through Rebekah’s life, we’re reminded that God’s promises are fulfilled by His faithfulness—not by our attempts to force His plans into existence. Whether you’re waiting on an answered prayer, wrestling with God’s timing, or learning to trust Him more deeply, I pray this conversation encourages you to rest in the God who always keeps His Word.

Who Told You That? | The Lies We Believe & the Identity God Gives

Who told you that you weren’t enough? Who told you that your past is too great for God’s grace? Who told you that your mistakes define your future? In Genesis 3:11, God asked Adam a powerful question: “Who told you that you were naked?” It wasn’t because God lacked information. It was an invitation to examine the voice Adam had begun to believe. In this episode of Where Faith Lives with Nixa Natalie, we explore how culture, comparison, shame, fear, past experiences, and even our own thoughts can shape our identity if we are not firmly rooted in God’s Word. Together, we’ll discover that our identity is not found in our failures, our feelings, or the opinions of others—but in what God has already declared through Scripture. The enemy’s greatest weapon isn’t simply getting us to sin. It’s convincing us to believe lies about the God who loves us and the identity He has already given us in Christ. 📖 Scripture References: • Genesis 3:1–11 • Jeremiah 17:9 • Psalm 139:13–14 • Romans 8:1 • 2 Corinthians 5:17 • Hebrews 13:5 📲 Connect with me: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nixanataliexo TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@nixanatalie_xo YouTube: https://youtube.com/@NixaNatalieXO If today’s episode encouraged you, please like, subscribe, and share it with someone who may need this reminder. 🎵 Background Music: “Lounge Sax Groove” by Gummy MusicLab via CapCut 🎙️ Theme Song: “Where Faith Lives Theme Song” Written by Nixa Natalie © Copyright Protected

Remember Lot’s Wife

Jesus gives one of the shortest warnings in all of Scripture: “Remember Lot’s wife.” — Luke 17:32 Why would Jesus tell us to remember a woman whose name isn’t even recorded in the Bible? In this episode, we explore the story of Lot’s wife, God’s mercy before judgment, the danger of becoming attached to what God is calling us away from, and what it means to move forward in faith. Sometimes the greatest obstacle to our future isn’t what’s ahead of us—it’s what we’re still looking back at. Join me as we dive into Scripture and uncover why this brief warning from Jesus is still relevant for believers today. 📖 Scriptures Referenced: ✨ Genesis 13:12-13 ✨ Genesis 19:15-26 ✨ Luke 17:28-33 ✨ Luke 17:32 ✨ Luke 9:62 ✨ Philippians 3:13-14 ✨ Isaiah 43:18-19 ✨ Matthew 6:21 🎙️ Listen to Where Faith Lives: 🔗 https://pod.link/1858451752 🎵 Background Music: Beautiful Piano (Acoustic) by prodbyDave via CapCut 🎼 Theme Song: “Where Faith Lives Theme Song” Written by Nixa Natalie © Copyright Protected 💜 Thank you for listening and being part of the Where Faith Lives family.

Go into all the world

This episode is a reflection on obedience, the Great Commission, and how God can use even the smallest act of surrender to reach people beyond what we could ever imagine. Sometimes we think ministry has to be big to matter. But God simply asks: Will you be obedient? Together, we reflect on Mark 16:15, the power of sharing the Gospel, and why no act of obedience for God is ever too small. ✨ Scriptures Referenced: Mark 16:15 Philippians 2:10–11 🎙️ Hosted by: Nixa Natalie 🌎 Podcast: Where Faith Lives 🎼 Theme Song: “Where Faith Lives Theme Song” Written by Nixa Natalie © Copyright Protected 🎵 Background Music: “Beautiful Piano (Acoustic)” — prodbyDave (CapCut) 🤍 Connect With Me: Instagram: @nixanatalie_XO
