Maintaining Your Freedom

by

Hey Treasured Tribe, are you frustrated because you feel like you should be further along in your healing journey? Be kind to yourself – healing is a process. We must trust God’s timing one step at time. Whenever you leave an Egypt or Pharaoh (place of captivity or controlling person) there will be a wilderness before your Promised Land. (Someone needed to hear that today! – AMEN?!?)  Ahhh but there is WONDER in the wilderness – so you must be patient and trust God’s process (you are doing just fine, treasured one) In today’s podcast, discover why a roundabout way is essential, so you won’t return to your “Egypt,”and how to trust God’s process for his perfect work. He’s got you boo!

Prodigal Son

by

When a mother experiences the loss of a prodigal son or daughter, the wound can linger for a long time. Shame pushes them to hide their pain, causing them to feel all alone. Grief often has no place to go, and so it continues to live in the company of unanswered questions. If this is your story, you are not alone. Today, my podcast guest Mary Ann Sibley, shares her story of her prodigal son and how God is redeeming this pain through the gift of serving others – one day at a time.  Mary Ann Sibley is the founder of Matter’s Spark and leads a private Facebook group for prodigal parents. Find encouragement today with her story, and please share with any women who you know are walking down this road. Thank you for sharing your story with our Treasured Tribe, Mary Ann. We just love you!

Scripture to Accompany Your Weekly Devotional: God is Your Provider

by

Romans 11:17

“But some of these branches from Abraham’s tree—some of the people of Israel—have been broken off. And you Gentiles, who were branches from a wild olive tree, have been grafted in. So now you also receive the blessing God has promised Abraham and his children, sharing in the rich nourishment from the root of God’s special olive tree.”

Galatians 3:14

“Through Christ Jesus, God has blessed the Gentiles with the same blessing he promised to Abraham, so that we who are believers might receive the promised Holy Spirit through faith.”

Ephesians 3:6

“And this is God’s plan: Both Gentiles and Jews who believe the Good News share equally in the riches inherited by God’s children. Both are part of the same body, and both enjoy the promise of blessings because they belong to Christ Jesus.”

James 2:20

“How foolish! Can’t you see that faith without good deeds is useless?”

Genesis 12:1-3

“The Lord had said to Abram, ‘Leave your native country, your relatives, and your father’s family, and go to the land that I will show you. I will make you into a great nation. I will bless you and make you famous, and you will be a blessing to others. I will bless those who bless you and curse those who treat you with contempt. All the families on earth will be blessed through you.'”

Opening God’s Gift of Sabbath Rest

by

Holy pauses from our hustle for Sabbath rest prepare our heart for Promised Land battles. Sabbath is God’s gift to every woman to retreat, regroup, and rebuild, but often times we don’t open this gift. Making the Sabbath a Holy Habit is the key to enjoying this blessing from God. By carving out times for input, we will have what we need for output. Have faith to pause, Treasured One…

Scripture to Accompany Your Weekly Devotional: He Sees You

by

John 20:1-18

“Early on Sunday morning, while it was still dark, Mary Magdalene came to the tomb and found that the stone had been rolled away from the entrance. She ran and found Simon Peter and the other disciple, the one whom Jesus loved. She said, ‘They have taken the Lord’s body out of the tomb, and we don’t know where they have put him!’ Peter and the other disciple started out for the tomb. They were both running, but the other disciple outran Peter and reached the tomb first. He stooped and looked in and saw the linen wrappings lying there, but he didn’t go in. Then Simon Peter arrived and went inside. He also noticed the linen wrappings lying there, while the cloth that had covered Jesus’ head was folded up and lying apart from the other wrappings. Then the disciple who had reached the tomb first also went in, and he saw and believed— for until then they still hadn’t understood the Scriptures that said Jesus must rise from the dead. Then they went home.

Mary was standing outside the tomb crying, and as she wept, she stooped and looked in.  She saw two white-robed angels, one sitting at the head and the other at the foot of the place where the body of Jesus had been lying. ‘Dear woman, why are you crying?’ the angels asked her. ‘Because they have taken away my Lord,’ she replied, ‘and I don’t know where they have put him.’

She turned to leave and saw someone standing there. It was Jesus, but she didn’t recognize him. ‘Dear woman, why are you crying?’ Jesus asked her. ‘Who are you looking for?’ She thought he was the gardener. ‘Sir,’ she said, ‘if you have taken him away, tell me where you have put him, and I will go and get him.’ ‘Mary!’ Jesus said. She turned to him and cried out, ‘Rabboni!’ (which is Hebrew for ‘Teacher’). ‘Don’t cling to me,’ Jesus said, ‘for I haven’t yet ascended to the Father. But go find my brothers and tell them, I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.’ Mary Magdalene found the disciples and told them, ‘I have seen the Lord!’ Then she gave them his message.”

2 Chronicles 16:9

“The eyes of the Lord search the whole earth in order to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to him. What a fool you have been! From now on you will be at war.”

Hebrews 4:13

“Nothing in all creation is hidden from God. Everything is naked and exposed before his eyes, and he is the one to whom we are accountable.”
