E:76: Why You Keep Making the Same Mistakes — And the Wisdom God Decreed for Your Glory

from Beyond Believing: Helping Christian Women Heal Post Divorce · host beyondbelieving

1 Corinthians 2 says there is a wisdom God decreed for your glory before time began. It has never been on the shelf at your therapist’s office. Today I’m showing you how you receive it. Head to HERE  to create peace, clarity, and closure in just 30 days post divorce. What if the reason you keep circling the same pain — choosing the same kinds of people, staying in the same kinds of situations, asking the same questions you cannot seem to answer — isn’t a willpower problem? What if it’s not even a healing problem? What if the real issue is that you have been trying to navigate your life with information the world gave you — when God has a wisdom available to you that the world literally cannot access? Last week we laid the foundation of truth: God is the original source of all truth, and you study Him — not the counterfeits. Today we go deeper into how that truth actually gets from God to you. Here’s what we’re covering this week: What Paul means by “the secret and hidden wisdom of God” — and why it was decreed for your glory before time began. How the Spirit searches everything — even the depths of God — and what that means for your discernment right now. And what it actually looks like to receive that wisdom. The posture. The practice. And Job’s promise from the ash heap that holds it all together. I also share what this looks like for two very different women — the one who keeps chasing and the one who has completely shut down. And a story about a client, a box from her wedding, and what God showed her when she finally sat still long enough to receive it. This wisdom is not contingent on your marital status. It is not forfeited because of your past. It was decreed for you before any of this happened. And it is available to you right now. Done circling the same pain?
