The Father's Heart To Bless
from Grapevine Ministries · host Phillip Barker
Send us Fan MailThe world trains us to chase what we want right now, but we’re not meant to be driven by demand, fear, or distraction. We take a clear look at the Father’s heart to bless, and why real spiritual strength starts with a different priority: time in God’s Word and time in prayer, not just to get something from Him, but to know Him and be shaped by His love.We unpack how belief works and why we “cannot receive what we do not believe”. When God brings a rhema word in season, our job is to lay hold of it, personalise the Father’s love, and let that beloved identity feed our faith. We also talk honestly about trials, using Scripture to show they’re for a season, and we push back against the lie that your best days are behind you. Good days are ahead, and the Word trains our hearts, our speech, and our focus to match that hope.From Mary and Martha in Luke 10 to the modern pull of social media, entertainment, and constant busyness, we get practical about what steals our attention and what actually nourishes the soul. Then we close with a bold, freeing theme: you are destined to reign in life through the abundance of grace and the gift of righteousness, living as a royal priesthood with authority that flows from the finished work of the cross.If this stirred your faith, subscribe, share it with a mate, and leave a review so more people can learn to prioritise the Word and live from the Father’s blessing.Good morning, good afternoon, wherever you are in the world - Welcome to Grapevine Ministries.
