When God gives us instructions to do something, He expects us to have instant obedience and not delayed obedience. Delayed obedience is disobedience; God is all about timing; when He gives us instructions, He wants us to follow them instantly. Our delayed obedience delays God’s plans, our provisions, and our blessings, along with other people who were part of God’s plans. Because of Esther’s promp...

When we abide, remain, and linger in the Lord. What that looks like is we are reading the word and allowing the word to read us.

Abiding is also putting on worship music or singing our hearts out to the Lo...

In this episode, we discuss what Holy Living means to us. We wanted to do our best to clear up the misconception of living a Holy life. Many people believe living a Holy life means you have to be perfect all time, which is not the case because no one is perfect.
