106. John the Baptist was a Real One

John the Baptist get's so overlooked in our faith that I wanted to dedicate an entire episode to him. He was a relative of Jesus who prepared the way for the Messiah! He lived a life that teaches us to this day how to be a Christian. He not only leaped for joy in the womb when Mary and Jesus walked in the room but this dude surrendered himself and had all eyeballs on Christ. John did some epic stuff in the wilderness, the Jordan River, prison, and even went toe to toe with King Herod who was doi...

102. EVERYTHING WILL BE OKAY.

Everything will be okay. I have been forgetting that lately. I think we all have. Our faith has been tested like never before. Evil is here. It’s in our culture, it’s in the world outside your homes. It’s even trying to get into your homes. We give it our time of day. We check it out, we see what it’s about, and sometimes we even pursue it. Everything will be okay... It’s what the Word of God says. It’s what our faith represents. The good news has already been written, what happens to us who bel...

100. Hardened Hearts at Astroworld

What up my fellow birds! Episode 100 is here! We discuss the tragedy that took place at the Travis Scott concert. We dive deep on the demonic symbolism and energies on full display there. We take a look at Exodus 7-11 and come to the conclusion that God hardens hearts in order for his glory to shine brighter. A difficult thing to grasp but we try to break it down to the best of our knowledge. We also discuss satans grip on the music industry and even shine the light on how he fell from heaven. J...

99. Faith, Trust, Rest

Sometimes the Lord test our faith... sometimes he does it by putting us on the spot when it comes to speaking out and proclaiming what we believe to the ears of others. Sometimes it’s him putting obstacles in our way, so we have no choice but to turn to him. Sometimes things can be going your way and HE will pull the rug from under you and make you question everything. The moments in our walk that feel like a “test of faith” could very well be the Lord’s discipline on us. Taking something away. ...

98. Clothe Yourself in Christ

After reading through these two chapters in Hebrews, I am convinced and confident in the truth that sets us free. Christ overcame the devil and we are to clothe ourselves in the lord Jesus Christ on a daily basis and put on the full armor of God. We must do everything in our power to not step outside and away from God’s protection, because if we step out in the world and start getting caught up in the storm of the spiritual war that goes on everyday, then we leave ourselves exposed to whatever s...
