Indestructible Life with Emily Wickham

Dear Listeners, God reveals practical truths in His Holy Word, and this episode contains help for those who are waiting on God. Rather than waiting impatiently or with a bad attitude, Joseph's example shows the importance of waiting on God's timing and how this takes courage. Joseph didn't know the future regarding his relationship with his brothers, but he waited with courage on God's leading and timing. May this message encourage and strengthen you.

Dear Listeners, Thank you so much for joining me for this episode - it's been a while! I'm excited to share Psalm 148 with you, commenting throughout as the Holy Spirit leads.

Dear Listeners, Welcome back to Indestructible Life! And if you're tuning in for the first time, please know it's a joy to have you. In this episode, we'll gain valuable truths for everyday Christian living. Colossians 3 teaches what it looks like to put on the new self, and it explains how we benefit from doing so. Are you weary of navigating life the same old way that doesn't work? Are you tired of reacting in ways that leave you feeling badly? It doesn't have to be like this anymore. We don't have to respond how we used to before we knew Christ as Savior. HE has made each of us "a new creature" (2 Corinthians 5:17). Though it's easy to live in ways that rise up naturally, let's cast off the old self and its useless, sinful flesh patterns. As we put on the new self, we'll experience freedom and joy as never before. In Christ's Love, Emily💕 Support the Show. https://www.buzzsprout.com/2106293/supporters/new

Dear Listeners, It's a joy to meet with you again on Indestructible Life—thank you for joining me for a look at Ephesians 6. While this portion of Scripture contains wisdom and instruction for various aspects of life, we're going to focus on how to stand firm against the devil. Do you ever feel the pressures of Satan's schemes? Can you smell the lingering stench of his nasty breath in certain experiences you encounter? It's real. He's real. The evil one works to "steal, and kill, and destroy" (John 10:10). But we don't have to acquiesce to his manipulations. God has provided His armor for our protection, and when we wear it daily, we'll achieve victory over the enemy. Praise the mighty name of JESUS! This message encourages and inspires us to get dressed God's way so we can stand firm against the devil. In Christ's Love, Emily💕 Support the Show. https://www.buzzsprout.com/2106293/supporters/new

Dear Listeners, Welcome to Season Three, Episode One! I'm so excited to try something new by reading Psalm 106 and commenting periodically throughout the chapter. Please join me in pondering truths the Holy Spirit brings to mind. He has a wonderful plan for our spiritual growth. In particular, Psalm 106 references the many times God's people, the Israelites, forgot His work on their behalf. How could that be? He accomplished so much for them, yet they lost sight of His marvelous deeds and resorted to sinful choices. But oh, we can do the same thing over and over again. This message calls each of us to remembrance. Despite life's challenges and no matter what we face, we must remember God's work in the past and present. Because when we remember His goodness, we're encouraged and strengthened for today. Thanks for listening, and please share this podcast with your friends!

Dear Listeners, Sometimes we struggle with purpose, wondering why we're here on earth and what God desires us to do for Him. Meet John the Baptist. He understood his God-given purpose, and he exemplified how to fulfill your purpose. Fascinating details like John's miraculous birth, life in the desert, and diet of locusts and honey don't even compare to the extraordinary way God used him to prepare people's hearts for His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ. John the Baptist inspires us to love and serve Christ more. When it comes to fulfilling your purpose, do you feel passionate or powerless? May God use this lesson about John the Baptist to guide you more clearly on His chosen path for you. Because you have a purpose only you can fulfill.
