The Consecrated Podcast
Fedhii Gobena & Biiftuu Gobena
Jesus paid far too high a price for us to live a nominal life. The Consecrated Podcast is a journey led by siblings Biiftuu and Fedhii Gobena, whose hearts burn with a shared passion to awaken believers to the boundless, abundant life they were made for.
Too often, Christians settle for the familiar—a faith without depth, power, or freedom. But Jesus came that we might have life to the fullest, in all its richness and glory. It’s time for the Bride to awaken, to shake off apathy, and to step into the fullness of what Christ has already paid for.
Through honest conversations, biblical truth, and a call to wholehearted devotion, Biiftuu and Fedhii invite you to trade conformity for consecration. Each week, they dive into the sacred pilgrimage of walking intimately with Jesus, exploring what it means to live a life set apart—marked by the abundance of His presence.

Trials & Suffering
In this episode, we dive into the mystery of joy in the midst of trials. Beginning with James 1 — “Consider it pure joy when you face trials of many kinds” — Fedhii opens by asking, “What kind of person looks at suffering and chooses to rejoice?” Together, we explore how true joy in hardship flows from an eternal perspective — from knowing that every trial is shaping us into a dwelling place worthy of the Son of Man. Is Jesus worth the suffering if it means becoming more like Him? If it means the Son of Man has a place to lay his head within you? We talk about how seeing the worthiness of the Man of Sorrows draws us into deeper intimacy with Him as we face trials—until our lives become the very home for His presence.

The Power of Believing the Right Things About God: Part 3
In this episode, we explore the vital role of grace in replacing unhealthy, false beliefs with the truth of who God is. We discuss the importance of showing yourself patience and not condemning yourself, because spiritual growth is a process—undoing years of lies takes time, and your heart has its own pace. Criticizing or condemning yourself in the process doesn’t actually help you grow; real transformation happens through grace and truth. God, as the author and finisher of our faith, is near throughout this process, guiding and shaping us. Just as the Son of God, though perfect, learned obedience through His suffering (Hebrews 5:8), we too grow through trials and challenges. This episode is a gentle but powerful reminder that transformation is a journey, and God’s truth is worth the patient work of aligning our hearts and minds with Him.

The Fruit of Hard Seasons
In this episode, we talk about how difficult seasons often become the very places where God reveals more of who He is—and how that revelation can completely shift our heart posture. From Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane to Hagar encountering El Roi, Scripture is full of moments where people met God in their lowest places and walked away strengthened to endure what was ahead.
Sometimes God delivers us out of hardship, and other times He reminds us, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” (2 Corinthians 12:9) Either way, it’s always unto something—unto knowing Him more deeply. As Paul wrote, “In all things, we would grow into Christ.” If every trial leads us into a greater revelation of God’s character, then even the inconvenience becomes worth it.

The Power of Believing the Right Things About God: Part 2
In this episode, we pick up where we left off and talk about why having the right beliefs about God is so important. Everything in life flows from what we believe about Him. If you don’t believe that God is protector, then everything that happens will seem to prove that false belief. We also talk about how easy it is to idolize our emotions—letting how we feel about life shape how we see God, instead of letting God define Himself. When we choose to believe the truth about who He is, it actually creates space for His presence to come in and change everything.

The Power of Believing the Right Things About God: Part 1
In this episode, we talk about why having the right beliefs about God is so important. Drawing from the story of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego in the book of Daniel, Fedhii unpacks how their unwavering faith in God didn’t just change their circumstances—it shifted the spiritual atmosphere around them. Their belief created space for King Nebuchadnezzar and the entire nation to encounter the true nature of God. We explore how belief attracts God’s presence, cultivates true worship, and builds an altar for others to experience Him too. Worship isn’t just a response to what God has done—it’s a declaration of who He is, even when circumstances don’t align with what we hope to see.

Loving Jesus Without Mixture
In this episode, we dive into what it means to remove mixture from our hearts, drawing from Matthew 6:24 — “No one can serve two masters.” We explore how it’s impossible to give the first place in our hearts to both God and something else. Through honest reflection, we discuss how fear often reveals the “other gods” competing for our devotion — whether it’s self-sufficiency, control, or comfort. As followers of Jesus, we’re called to be a wholehearted bride, fully surrendered and devoted to Him alone. This conversation invites you to examine what’s truly sitting on the throne of your heart and to allow Jesus to take His rightful place.

When You're Feeling Stagnant
In this episode, we talk about how to stoke the flame when your faith feels stagnant. While seasons of stagnancy are a normal part of the Christian walk, there is no such thing as neutrality—you’re either moving toward God or away from Him. We share how testimonies of God’s past faithfulness can serve as fuel for your fire. And if you’re new in your faith or feel you haven’t seen God clearly move in your life yet, we discuss how honoring the stories in Scripture as your own—because we are the people of God—can ignite your fire just the same.

Remember Who Is Walking With You
In this season finale, we dive into the importance of remembering who walks with you—God Himself. When we remind our spirits of His omnipresent and omnipotent power, it strengthens and encourages us in every season. God is not apathetic; He is powerful and engaged in every detail of our lives. As we encounter more of Him, more is also expected of us. Rather than letting our circumstances define who God is, we must learn to stand on the truth of His nature and use the confidence of His presence with us to shape how we respond to life’s challenges.

Partnering with the Holy Spirit
In this episode, we dive into what it means to truly be a good partner with the Holy Spirit. If God is the one doing the work—if He is both the author and the finisher—then what is our role in the process of transformation? We look at the biblical foundation that makes clear it is God who initiates growth, while our part is to respond with a “yes” to His work. Partnership with the Holy Spirit means learning to acknowledge and celebrate what He has already done in our lives. When we honor His testimony, our hearts are positioned toward Him. Gratitude then becomes the doorway—it opens our eyes to how He is moving and deepens our awareness of His ongoing work.

Following the Leadership of the Lord
God’s leadership is never random—it’s intentional. In this episode, we talk about how He so often leads us one step at a time, giving only a piece of the puzzle instead of the full picture. It’s in that space of uncertainty where He’s calling us to trust Him deeply. Fear makes us want control, but faith moves when we don’t have all the answers. We were created to follow, not to lead—and when we try to take the role of leader, we end up carrying a weight we were never meant to bear. That weight shows up as anxiety. But when we trust His step-by-step guidance, we find peace in His leadership. We are created to be followers, not the leaders—and when we try to take control, anxiety often follows.
