E:78: After My Divorce, God Revealed This About Me

Ready to start peeling back what’s been covering who God created you to be? The 30-Day Identity Reset is where you start. I learned a seven-word prayer after my divorce that changed everything. The first thing God showed me had nothing to do with my ex — and everything to do with me. Ephesians 5:6 says let no one deceive you with empty words. No one. Not your ex. Not the culture. Not the voices around you. But here is what that verse means that most of us have never sat with: that “no one” includes you. Your own mind. The stories you have been telling yourself so long they stopped feeling like stories and started feeling like facts. In this episode I’m sharing the prayer that cracked all of that open for me. Seven words I first heard from Francis Chan — and what happened the first time I prayed them and actually meant them. The first thing God revealed was not about my ex. It was about love. What I believed love was. What I had been taught it required of me. How I had spent years trying to earn something God had already given me freely. That revelation became my “Lessons from the Father” series. It started as one layer coming off. I also share a framework in this episode that I use with every client: the difference between deception and God’s voice. Deception consumes — you spin, you spiral, you research, you rehearse, and you end up exactly where you started. God creates — His word produces something. Movement. Clarity. Fruit. The burning bush in Exodus 3 is the image: it burns without being consumed. That is what His presence does. And I share a moment — a conversation with my child — where the prayer produced something I did not expect: a story I had been holding about my ex, dismantled. Not because he was right. Because I had incomplete information. And the prayer made me willing to see that. The close includes three reflection questions I want you to sit with this week. The last one is the hardest. And the most important. Ready to do this work with real support? Apply for the 30-Day Identity Reset to begin your journey to peace, clarity and closure post divorce. THIS EPISODE IS FOR YOU IF: You are circling the same thoughts about your ex and nothing is shifting. You think your discernment is clear — but you are not sure anymore. You have been consumed by the story of what happened and you are exhausted by it. You want to hear God’s voice more clearly but you cannot separate it from everything else. You are willing to ask the hard question: Am I willing to be wrong?
