Break It Down - Natalie Style

He is LIMITLESS . This powerful reminder hit me this morning. He KNOWS our needs. He matches it accordingly to HIS RICHES ! We can REST that HE WILL PROVIDE for ALL our NEEDS .

In this episode I share from 1 Timothy 6:6-20 We brought NOTHING into this world AND we can’t take ANYTHING with us when leave it. vs 7 This was very obvious statement, but reading it this morning really hit my heart on what’s REALLY important.

In this episode I share from Acts 8:26-40 Philip, a disciple of Jesus was preaching the gospel in Jerusalem and an angel told him to head south down a desert road.

In this episode I share from 1 Samuel 17:38-40 David puts on Sauls armor to fight Goliath and it doesn’t FIT him. It’s NOT supposed to. It wasn’t designed for him. I love this detail in the Bible. So many times WE try to put ON something that was NEVER intended for us. We each have a unique and gifted call on our life. How we see, speak and use our talents is different than others. This was a brea...

In this episode I share from 1 Kings 19:1-15 Elijah the GREAT prophet in the Old Testament has a mountain top experience with God. God does a crazy miracle through Elijah.

In this episode I share from Genesis 24:1-26 Clarity brings PEACE . In this story Abraham has asked his servant to go back to his homeland and find a wife for his son Isaac. The servant asks for SUCCESS and CLARITY in choosing the WIFE God has for Isaac. He gets specific. Make it clear. God LOVES when we come to him on decisions we need to make and ask him for CLARITY . This puts us in position of...

In this episode I share from Genesis 17:1-9 God changes Abram to Abraham. He makes him a father of multitude of nations! He tells him that he will be EXTREMELY fruitful and kings will be among him. This is a POWERFUL GIFT … God says to him…. YOUR RESPONSIBILITY is to OBEY . TRUST & OBEY . We ALL want GREAT gifts and blessings, BUT can God TRUST us to OBEY his word and steward the gift wisely? Peop...

In this episode I share the story of Joseph. Read Genesis 37-50. His story will encourage you and give you hope that GOD will fulfill his promises. Testing. Joseph went through various trials of testing to produce IN him a GREATER depth of humility. As he goes through these trials - God is WITH him. God gives him favor and success in everything he does. What hit me - when we are DAILY walking in G...

In this episode I share from Philippians 3 Paul - a scholar in his day, crazy educated in the word and laws. He says, “I count this ALL garbage compared to the infinite knowledge of knowing Jesus.” Are we counting the COST of what we LOSE or do we SEE the WORTH/VALUE in having a personal relationship with God. This morning I share a story I heard from a biz realtor developer. The cost of the proje...

In this episode I share from Acts 7 Stephen was a FAITHFUL disciple and the FIRST martyr for Jesus. His LAST words… “As they stoned him, Stephen prayed, “Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.” He fell to his knees, shouting, “Lord, don’t charge them with this sin!” And with that, he died.” Acts 7:59-60 | NLT His LAST words were what JESUS said in his final moments on the cross. Forgiving and committing ....

In this episode I share from Romans 8:26, 28-29 God is our HELPER n our weaknesses and HE WORKS everything for our GOOD . In our struggles he is our victor.

In this episode I share from 2 Corinthians 9 Paul is sharing with the Christians how proud and grateful he is in their WILLINGNESS and EAGERNESS to GIVE ! Churches/Pastors still preach on Old Testament LAW of tithing 10% of your income to a local church.

In this episode I share from Romans 1:19-24 They KNEW God. They CHOSE to trade the TRUTH for a LIE and as a result they got a dark and confused mind. When we start to believe the LIES of the enemy we LIVE in darkness, clouded judgement and wrongful thinking. DAILY we must take the LIES and lay them at Jesus feet and declare HIS TRUTH over the lie.

In this episode I share from Romans 7:14-25 Galatians 5:16-18 You CRAVE what you FEED yourself the MOST . Physically- if you eat junk food you will crave that more than REAL food. Spiritually - if you feed your human sinful nature MORE than renewing your heart and mind to Gods desire - you’ll CRAVE that. We have to CHANGE what we CRAVE by FEEDING ourselves MORE of what God desires. I share a perso...

In this episode I share from Psalm 91 This passage in Bible it about protection, but also about REST . I created an acronym for REST from my reading today… R - REFUGE E- EVIL FLEES S- SAFETY T- TRUST Psalm 91:1-4 hits on these. We can find our REST , perfect PEACE in God when we make him our REFUGE . EVIL cannot OVERTAKE us. We find SAFETY in HIM . We can TRUST God will fight, protect and LEAD us...

In this episode I share from a few verses: Psalm 25:12-14 Proverbs 9:10 John 14-15 Jeremiah 33:3 A TRUE friend of God. A deep reverence of WHO he is. Hearing HIS voice and obeying what He tells you.

We...

In this episode I share from Hebrews 12:5-13 God DISCIPLINES those he LOVES . As a parent we only have a short period of time to discipline and correct our kids.

Response : IMMEDIATELY LEFT . In Matthew 4 Jesus tells...

In this episode I share from Romans 6:12-19 Paul is writing to the church about DYING to SELF to LIVE in FULL VICTORY & FREEDOM in Jesus! He addresses that whatever we obey we are a slave to. In your stress, brokenness and anxiety WHAT do you turn to? Food? Alcohol? Drugs? Social Media? That’s your SLAVE . When we turn to GOD . This says, “ YOU are GREATER than my situation. You are the ONLY one t...
