We examine the story of Hezekiah and the Assyrian threat, focusing on how words were used to challenge his faith.The Assyrian messenger attempts to undermine Hezekiah's trust in God through persuasive words, questioning his reliance on divine intervention. We discuss the parallels with modern challenges to believers' faith and the tactics used to instill doubt.Eliakim, Shebnah, and Joah's response to the messenger showcases the importance of protecting ourselves and our loved ones from discouraging influences. We draw insights on safeguarding against fear and doubt.Despite the pressure to heed the Assyrian king's words, Hezekiah turns to Isaiah for reassurance, exemplifying the need to seek truth amidst deception. We relate this to personal struggles with faith and the importance of anchoring ourselves in God's promises.Transitioning to the story of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, we discuss their unwavering faith in God, even in the face of death. The recurring theme of "Even if" underscores the essence of trusting God amidst adversity.Connect with Us:Instagram: @marriageaftergodInstagram: @unveiledwifeInstagram: @husbandrevolutionResources: marriageaftergod.comYOUTUBE @marriageaftergodSupport This show by joining our patron team!Our Sponsors:* Check out Mr. Pen and use my code MAG10 for a great deal: https://mrpen.comSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/marriage-after-god-biblical-advice-practical-tips-and-inspiring-/donations

In this episode, we discuss an important truth - the words we choose to receive and believe directly impact and direct the course of our lives. We see in Proverbs that wisdom and understanding come from knowing and accepting words of insight. Like Jesus' parable of seeds and soil, words only take root and have power in us when we fully receive and believe them.We share examples of how believing certain words led to accomplishing dreams like getting out of debt and writing our book, Marriage After God. The enemy also knows that lies believed lead to deception and destruction. That's why we must be careful about the repeated messages we internalize from the world and own thinking.God provides abundant life-giving words and wisdom freely to those who ask. We present Scriptures on walking in blessing versus falling into worldly patterns. What words are shaping your beliefs, perception, and direction? Let God's Word and truth set you firmly on the path of life!Main Topics:Wisdom comes from receiving wordsBelieving words leads to accomplishing dreamsLies believed destroy livesGod freely gives wisdom if we askChoosing which words direct our pathConnect with Us:Instagram: @marriageaftergodInstagram: @unveiledwifeInstagram: @husbandrevolutionResources: www.marriageaftergod.comSupport Our Podcast: https://marriageaftergod.com/patronOur Sponsors:* Check out Mr. Pen and use my code MAG10 for a great deal: https://mrpen.comSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/marriage-after-god-biblical-advice-practical-tips-and-inspiring-/donations

In this episode, we explore an incredible but overlooked truth - words are spiritual things! Just as God spoke the world into existence, what we say also carries spiritual power and implications.We look at 1 John 4 on "testing the spirits" and see this refers to assessing the words and messages people speak to determine their origin - from God or not. Jesus calls His own words "spirit and life." But does the Bible give us any other scripture to show us how words are spirit?Understanding words are spiritual means we recognize the responsibility we have in what we speak and what or who we listen to.
