Positioned to Prosper with Erica Pyle

#147// If you want to truly prosper in this life, you're going to have to actively steward your health. There's no way around it. But, Hey! Before you hit pause . . . I work primarily with ambitious, multi-passionate, Christian women who want to fully succeed in their life's purpose while fully pleasing the heart of God along the way. These girls . . . They are down to do hard thing...

#146// 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 says, " Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. " How are you doing with the will of God in Christ Jesus for you when it comes to rejoicing and giving thanks? Isn't it crazy how we can clearly know what the will of God is for our life -- it's right there in the sc...

#145//  A transformative discussion with Jessica Chapman on the power of maintaining relational connection as we minister deliverance in Jesus' name. Have you ever experienced deliverance for yourself or been in the room when someone else was receiving this type of ministry? What was that like? Were there parts that were scary? Or maybe aggressive? Did it even "work?" Are you a part...

#144//  As Christians, we know complaining "ain't it," right? Philippians 2:14-16 tells us to do all things without grumbling, disputing or complaining, but there seems to be this thing deep down inside of all of us that needs to feel heard and seen, and that we're not alone in difficult circumstances. And so, we give voice to the pain and suffering, and we're not always a...

#142 // When Jesus said He would build His Church, what sort of Standard do you think He was setting for us to follow? Can we really be Holy and Perfect as the prophets and Jesus exhorted us to be in the Scriptures? On this episode of the Positioned to Prosper podcast I'm sharing a message I preached at our last REVIVE Church of Tampa Leader Night on the Holy Standard that Jesus has establish...

#141// Do you think Jesus was a rebel? Think past the cute Christian statement t-shirts emblazoned with those words and dig into scripture instead. What do you think you'll find? Listen, I'm going to spill the beans . . . While Jesus was definitely a "disrupter" and went against the grain of culture and those in authority, He was perfectly submitted to His Father and aligned wi...

#138// " I already know I need to be reading my Bible, Erica. " {{insert eye roll}} Listen, Sister, I have ZERO desire for trying to convince you that you need to be reading your Bible. If Jesus is your Lord and Savior and you've got His Spirit in your heart, chances are this bit of wisdom around getting His word into your heart regularly has already occurred to you . . . multiple t...

#137// But seriously . . . why are we always those people who think we need to figure it out, clean it up, get it done all on our own? When I was little, I marveled at how my mom could do a full grocery shop for a family of five and then come home and grab every single bag out of the car, at once, and carry it into the house . . . in one trip ! I aspired to be like her. It wasn't until I was...

#136// Are your efforts to reconcile in a relationship -- with God or with another person -- seemingly not working? It might be that you're missing one of these three Rs. I've been on a journey with the Lord the last three years to truly understand what it means to be a "minister of reconciliation." (2 Corinthians 5:18) What I have found is that, despite our best intentions and...

#134// Do you know you could be dreaming bigger? Recently while scrolling social media, I saw a post sharing this thought: " Sarah wanted a baby. God wanted to birth a nation. " It got me thinking, and asking the Lord -- Why do we dream so small most of the time? What does this habit of dreaming small do to the quality of our lives? How can we become the Big Dreamer God designed us to be...

#133// Who doesn't love seeing acceleration in their life? Human beings seem to be wired to " just get there already ." But the cadence of the Kingdom of God is actually in the NOW. God, and everything He brings with Him, is always right on time (see Isaiah 60:22). So why is it that we're so enamoured with the idea of jamming on the gas pedal and getting to the finish line? On...

#132//  How do you pivot while not losing the "plot" on your life? What do you do when the Lord calls an "audible" right in the middle of what feels like a crucial part of the "game" of life? For some of us, our minds can go immediately to the thought, " Did I do something wrong? ". But what if these audibles are meant to simply help us stay flexible on the...

#131// Are you an "undercover" control freak? C'mon! Be honest . . . Are you a Christian who knows control ain't "cute," but you just can't seem to stop? Maybe you've made major strides with releasing control and can say, " Well, I used to be really bad, but now it's just a little bit. " But is that little bit of controlling you're allowi...

#130// What do you do when it doesn't look like what God said? We've all been there. We hear the Lord speak to our heart, we craft the vision board, we support the promise with scripture. And then . . . we wait. Let me ask you, how well do you wait? Does doubt creep in? How about disappointment? What do you do when you begin to believe that there's NO way that what God said could co...

#128// Be honest . . . Do you feel overwhelmed a lot of the time? I had a good pray and a think before I titled this episode. I knew it would seem like I was making an assumption, and we all know what happens when we assume, right? 😉 But here's something I know about the women I connect with and serve based on hundreds of conversations and message exchanges -- We're all dealing with ove...

#127// We've got to have a "Come to Jesus" around this lie we believe . . . You know it's a lie, right? I mean, God created you and placed you into a world where He made time " a thing ." That means He was totally aware when He created works for you to do (Ephesians 2:10) that you were going to need " enough " time to get things done. So why is it that that...

#126// If your day is fraught with overwhelm and overly emotional reactions, it might be time to look at your quiet time, Sis (or lack thereof). I know that might sound like I just got all up in your business real quick , but this is one of the easiest fixes when we find ourselves stuck in patterns that don't serve: Spending QT with Jesus consistently . If you've been feeling like life i...

#125// What about your life would be radically different if you had a consistent and highly effective prayer time each morning? Listen, I get it. We're all busy, right? We'd like to just be able to multitask our convo with God each day as we're taking care of the practicalities of life at the same time. But I've got to be honest with you . . .  Prayer works best when it's...

#124//  Job was sifted by the devil. So was Peter. Question . . . Are you being sifted? On this episode of the Positioned to Prosper podcast, I'm sharing the message I shared at our most recent REVIVE Woman Girls Night Out . This one is all about getting delivered, my friend, in the most "normal" of ways. And also about knowing how to navigate the sifting season without pressing the...

#123//  Is your invitation falling flat because you haven't realized it's actually a process? I'm sharing a message I recently shared at my home church of REVIVE Church of Tampa around what it really takes to effectively invite someone to Come and See what Jesus and His Kingdom. Whether, for you, that means inviting someone to a church service or simply into a conversation about wha...
