Faithful Fridays with Bobbie

Welcome to Season 3 of Faithful Fridays! Last season, we spent fifteen weeks studying the names of God and what they reveal about His character. But by the end of the season, something unexpected happened—we ended with Jesus. That led me to a question I couldn’t ignore. If God revealed Himself through His names in the Old Testament, what do the names of Jesus reveal about Him in the New Testament?...

We spent this season studying fifteen names of God. Each one revealed His character, His power, and His faithfulness. But these were never just names to memorize—they reveal the One true God. In this season finale, we look back at what we’ve learned and how these names have been seen throughout Scripture and in our own lives. From Jehovah-Jireh to Jehovah-Rohi, from Elohim to Alpha and Omega, ever...

In the final Name of God study of the season, we explore Alpha and Omega. What does it mean that God calls Himself the Beginning and the End? And if God has no beginning or ending, why would He reveal Himself that way? Join me as we study Revelation 1:8, Revelation 22:13, and Psalm 90:2 and discover how God teaches finite people about an infinite God.

We call God all-powerful. But if someone watched our lives for a week, would they come to the same conclusion? In this episode, we study the name El Gibbor, which means Mighty God. Together we’ll look at Isaiah’s prophecy about Jesus, the faith struggles of Abraham, Sarah, Martha, and others, and what it means to trust God’s promises when life doesn’t go according to our plans. The question isn’t...

Have you ever felt like no matter what you do, it’s never enough? We try harder. We do better. We promise ourselves we’ll get it right next time. But what if the answer was never found in trying harder? In this episode of Faithful Fridays, we explore the name Jehovah Tsidkenu — The LORD Our Righteousness and discover why our hope has never been found in our own goodness, but in Christ. Join us as...

In this episode, we explore what it means for God to be a Father to the fatherless and how we become part of His family through adoption in Christ. Through Scripture and personal testimony, we discuss the difference between being created by God and becoming His child, the process of God’s adoption, and what it means to learn how to be a faithful daughter to a faithful Father. Key Scriptures: Psalm...

Last week we looked at Jehovah-Sabaoth, the LORD of Hosts—the God who reigns over everything and commands heaven’s armies. This week we’re looking at Jehovah-Rohi, the LORD My Shepherd. Why does God repeatedly describe His people as sheep throughout Scripture? What does that reveal about us? And what does it reveal about Him? In this episode, we take a closer look at the Shepherd who leads, feeds,...

Jehovah-Sabaoth means “The LORD of Hosts.” In this episode, we study how God rules over every battle, every power, and everything we cannot control. Through Scripture, we see that heaven itself operates under God’s authority — and that changes how we live, obey, trust, and endure.

What does it really mean for the LORD to be our banner? In this episode of Faithful Fridays, we walk through Exodus 17:8–16 and look at the moment Moses built an altar and called the LORD “Jehovah Nissi.” This name teaches us: • who we belong to • who we are standing under • where true victory comes from • and what it means to stay under God even when life gets hard We also talk about: • why Aaron...

Jehovah Shalom means “The Lord is Peace,” but biblical peace is deeper than comfort or quietness. In this episode, we walk through Gideon’s story in Judges 6 and learn that true peace comes from alignment with God.

In this episode of Faithful Fridays, we’re looking at the name Jehovah Rapha — The LORD Who Heals found in Exodus 15:26. When God made the bitter water sweet, He didn’t just fix a situation… He revealed something deeper about Himself — and about us. This episode walks through: • What Jehovah Rapha really means • Why God said “I heal YOU” and not just the situation • How bitter moments expose what’...

Have you ever said you trust God… but still felt like you needed to figure everything out yourself? In this episode of Faithful Fridays, we’re looking at the name Jehovah Jireh — the LORD who provides. But this name isn’t about God giving us whatever we want… and it’s not about material blessings or overflow. It’s about something deeper. In Genesis 22, Abraham is tested in a way that reveals what...

Most of us want to be seen. We want our pain seen. Our effort seen. Our intentions seen. But what happens when God sees everything… not just what we want Him to see? In this episode, we’re talking about El Roi — the God who sees. Not just a surface-level seeing… but a full, true, accurate seeing. Genesis 16 shows us something we don’t always think about: God didn’t just see Hagar’s pain… He saw Sa...

We say we trust God… but our actions don’t always match that. We obey… but we’re still stressed. We obey… but we’re still trying to control everything. So what does that say about what we really believe? In this episode, we’re looking at El Shaddai — the God who is enough… and what it reveals about our trust when life doesn’t go the way we expect. This one might step on your toes a little… it step...

We say “Lord” all the time… but do we actually live like He is? In this episode, we’re talking about Adonai — what it really means for God to be Lord… not just in word, but in authority. Because calling Him Lord is easy. Living under Him? That’s where it gets real. Through Scripture and real-life examples, we’re looking at what it means to stop doing things our way… and start living under His. Bec...

In this episode, we’re taking a closer look at the name God revealed to Moses in Exodus 3. “I AM THAT I AM.” Not a label. Not a title. A revelation of who He is. For a long time, I used to say, “God is everything I need Him to be.” And it sounded right… until I actually studied what He said. God doesn’t become what we need. He already is who He is. And if we’re not careful, we can start shaping Go...

What if the way you see God… isn’t the full picture? In this episode, we go back to the very beginning—with the name Elohim. Not just as “God”… but as Creator. Because before God ever showed us His mercy… He showed us His power. And if we miss that… we’ll misunderstand everything else about Him. This isn’t about what God can do for us. It’s about who He is. And when we understand Him as Creator… i...

This is a foundation episode for Season 2 — Make sure to watch Episode 1 immediately after! This season is all about understanding who God is through His names… so we can serve Him for who He truly is, not just who we think He is.

Season one began with a focus on waiting. But as the season unfolded, something deeper appeared. Waiting wasn’t just about time passing… it was revealing the heart. In this season finale, we look at what all that waiting revealed. #FaithfulFridays #BiblePodcast #ChristianWomen #BibleStudy #DavidInTheBible #HeartForGod

In this episode of Faithful Fridays, we finish Saul’s story and look at what was really in his heart—and what it cost him. Saul’s life warns us about fear of people, pride, and caring more about appearances than obedience. But it also reminds us that we can still humble ourselves and choose to obey God. Scriptures: 1 Samuel 15, 1 Samuel 16:14, Acts 5:29

Faithful Fridays — Saul Part 2. 📖 1 Samuel 13 When Saul is confronted, he starts with “because”… and then says, “I forced myself.” This episode is a heart check on what pressure can pull out of us when waiting gets heavy. If you missed Part 1, I encourage you to listen to that first—then come back. #FaithfulFridays #1Samuel #Saul #BibleStudy #ChristianPodcast #Scripture #Obedience #WaitingIsntWas...

Waiting is easy until pressure shows up. In this episode, we look at Saul’s impatience and what pressure reveals about what we really trust. When obedience feels delayed and fear rises, what does faith actually require?

Why would Jesus wait… when He knew the outcome? In John 11, Jesus delays going to Lazarus. And in that delay, there is grief, confusion, and sorrow. Yet in that same chapter, we see purpose unfolding. In this episode of Faithful Fridays, we talk about holy delay — the kind of waiting that hurts but serves a greater purpose. We explore grief, tears, and the truth that even when Jesus waits, He is n...

What do you do when God anwers you… but it’s not the answer you wanted? The prophet Habakkuk asked hard questions. He cried out over injustice. And when God responded, the answer didn’t make sense. In this episode, we learn that waiting isn’t just about time passing — it’s about trust growing. Habakkuk teaches us to stand watch, to write the vision, and to live by faith even when the situation doe...

What does it look like to wait… and not grow bitter? In Luke 2, we meet Simeon — an older man who had been promised he would see the Messiah before he died. He waited. Not in frustration. Not in fear. But in hope. In this episode of Faithful Fridays, we explore what it means to wait with expectation instead of anxiety. Simeon reminds us that when God makes a promise, He keeps it — even if the fulf...
