In this episode, we’re diving into the Breastplate of Righteousness—what it is, why it matters, and how living in alignment with God’s standards shields our hearts from sin and shame. Righteousness isn’t about our own performance; it’s about trusting in Christ’s holiness to cover and protect us. Join me as we explore the spiritual strength we find when we put on this essential piece of the Armor of God.

In today’s episode, we dive into one of my favorite parables, found in Matthew 7:24-27, where Jesus teaches about building your house on a firm foundation. We'll explore what it means to build on the rock, the storms of life, and how to stay grounded in your faith when everything feels like it's falling apart. I'll also share a personal reflection on navigating challenges and finding strength in God’s promises, even when life gets tough.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

• Scripture Focus: Matthew 7:24-27 and the importance of building your life on a solid foundation.

Comparison is a trap that keeps us stuck, doubting our worth, and afraid to step into our God-given purpose. In today’s episode, we’re diving deep into the ways comparison can hold us back and how we can shift our mindset to see God’s work in others as inspiration rather than defeat. You don’t have to live in fear or feel inadequate—God’s promises for you are bigger than comparison.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

• Why comparison is one of the enemy’s favorite tools.
• The difference between comparison that tears you down and inspiration that lifts you up.
• How God’s promises don’t depend on your doubts or fears.
• Examples from Scripture, like Gideon and Peter, to show how God uses flawed people for His glory.
• Practical steps to overcome comparison and step into your calling.

Key Takeaways:

• The enemy uses comparison to keep you stuck, but God shows us what’s possible through others.
• Shift your mindset: Stop minimizing yourself and start seeing the potential God has placed in you.
• God doesn’t call you to perfection—He calls you to obedience.
