I AM PASTOR DEB

We Want To Hear From YOU!The same God who walked with Abraham, spoke to Moses, and strengthened David over 2,000 years ago is the same God present with you right now—and the only God who will exist beyond eternity. And let’s be honest, eternity is another concept we don’t keep in the forefront of our minds either.Closing Song: Everywhere Always produced by Deborah OcasioSupport the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

We Want To Hear From YOU!As we embrace a new year… Our themes for this upcoming year are New Year, New Yes. With that thought in mind, I encourage you to ask yourself about your wishlist, and then be honest about how much of what you desire you can take into glory.Closing Song: What Will You Take Into Glory https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=dJX6CZMc97ASupport the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

We Want To Hear From YOU!Move forward—at all costs. Yes, the past happened. But it’s over.Yes, you made mistakes. But God’s grace is greater.Yes, people hurt you, and you’ve hurt people. But healing is available.Yes, doors closed. But better ones are opening.Don’t waste time trying to relive or rewrite yesterday.Put your faith in drive, your hope in gear, and let God’s Word be your GPS.Because as brilliant and blessed as you are, you can’t walk forward and backward at the same time.Support the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

We Want To Hear From YOU!This morning I was to talk to you briefly about something so basic, something our mothers and grandmothers like taught us. But being adults, dealing with life, while life be lifing its really easy to stray away from the basics.Closing Song:  All Day & All Night - You Kept Me - Produced by Deborah OcasioSupport the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

We Want To Hear From YOU!Some of us keep returning to familiar people, methods, habits, environments, expectations, and ways of thinking simply because we know the route.We don't necessarily choose them because they're best.We choose them because they're familiar.But familiar doesn't automatically mean fruitful.The children of Israel struggled with this very thing.After God delivered them from Egypt, there were moments when life in the wilderness became uncomfortable, and Egypt suddenly sounded good again.  Numbers 14:3–4 records them saying: “Would it not be better for us to return to Egypt?” RETURN TO EGYPT?!Egypt was where you were enslaved!  But that's what familiarity can do. Sometimes our path in life requires us to recalculateSupport the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

We Want To Hear From YOU!Have you ever noticed something interesting about confidence? The moment someone stands firmly in who they are, whispers begin.“Who do they think they are?” “She thinks she’s all that.” “He’s feeling himself a little too much.”But the truth is, there is a difference between conceit and conviction.Conceit says, “I made myself.” Conviction says, “God made me on purpose.”One is pride. The other is revelation.Closing Song:  Not Conceited - Convinced produced by Deborah OcasioSupport the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

We Want To Hear From YOU!Alright, let me lovingly disrupt a popular slogan.Everybody loves to say, “We’re all God’s children.”It sounds warm. It sounds inclusive. It sounds like something you’d put on a coffee mug with a sunset behind it.And some of you are already ready to say Amen—not because it’s biblical, but because we tend to think that being a child of God is automatic because He created us all, and on top of that, because He created us all with purpose.All true, however, biblically speaking, we are not automatically God’s children. That may make some of you cringe, but it is absolutely Scripture.God’s divine plan was never for humanity to be born into forced allegiance with HimClosing Song: God's Legitimate Children - produced by Deborah OcasioSupport the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

We Want To Hear From YOU!Let’s be real—we don’t get to bulldoze our lives and start over in the womb.

We Want To Hear From YOU!If someone were to read your life like a book, they’d notice something powerful. Every chapter that should’ve ended in defeat kept turning into survival. Every page soaked in tears somehow still carried hope. And right in the margins—where explanations ran out— there He was.Holding you together when you were unraveling. Covering you when you didn’t even know how to pray. Lifting you when the fall should’ve finished you.You didn’t just make it through— You were carried through.Closing song: Jesus Is The Best Thing That Ever Happened To Me by James ClevelandSupport the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

We Want To Hear From YOU!Christians, skeptics, and atheists all have one thing in common: we're getting God wrong. Not a little wrong — comfortably wrong. Somewhere along the way, most of us traded the God who is for a god we could live with: one sized to our schedule, shaped by our wounds, and edited by our politics.In this episode, we name the gods we've quietly built and bowed to — the Vending Machine God, the God With No Backbone, the Bouncer We Bribe, and the Mascot God on the believer's side; the Sky Tyrant, the Silent Villain, and the Enemy of the Mind on the skeptic's side. We sit with Job's whirlwind encounter, unpack why "cheap grace" isn't really grace at all, and ask why evil in the world doesn't disprove God so much as assume Him. Then we turn to who God actually is — not the god any of us would have invented, but the one who reveals Himself anyway.Support the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

We Want To Hear From YOU!If we’re being honest, some of us have been held hostage by our “I need” lists for so long, we’ve forgotten what a real need even looks like.We say:“I need this job or I don’t know how I am going to make it.”“I need a man or I’m going to die single.”“I need a woman or I’m going to lose my mind.”No, beloved… You want that job. You desire that relationship. You hope that woman soothes your cravings.But you won’t die without it. You might sulk a little. You might even cry and play your favorite sad playlist. But baby, you will live.See, the enemy loves to convince us that our desires are needs, and THEN we start negotiating our dignity, our peace, and our God-given discernment just to chase after them.Support the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

We Want To Hear From YOU!DON'T PAUSE MY PROCESS.Because there is revelation in the process.There is value added in the processing.There is flavor developed during the process.Because you understand something about food that we sometimes forget about faith:Some things need time to become what they were prepared to be.Oh, that's good right there.The marinade is doing something you can't see.The heat is doing something you can't rush.The pressure is breaking down what needs to become tender.And the waiting is allowing the flavor to move beyond the surface.Maybe that's what God is doing with you.Maybe God isn't just trying to put purpose on you.Maybe He's allowing purpose to get in youClosing Song: Lord, Don't Pause My Process written and produced by Deborah OcasioSupport the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

We Want To Hear From YOU!The enemy doesn't always have to tempt you to sinSometimes he will simply overwhelm you with many things so you never focus on the one thing The one thing he has purposedBusy.Busy.Busy.Too busy to pray. 24 hours in a day, and God gets 2 minutes in the morning and maybe a full minute before you crash at nightAnd we are definitely too busy to sit still, to hear from God, to open His wordWe’re too busy to think through crucial things that need our attention.Far too busy to listen, we’re constantly talking over each other, so we can make our point and get on to the next thingToo busy to notice that God has been trying to redirect you for six months.And here's the danger of constant busyness:You can't hear correction but wonder why we keep ending up in certain situations.Psalm 46:10 says:“Be still, and know that I am God.”Closing Song: "Busy Is Not My Brand" written and produced by Deborah OcasioSupport the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

We Want To Hear From YOU!Does there seem to be a traffic jam on the road to your destiny, to God's purpose for you?  I chose the cover photo of this message intentionally because, to illustrate this point, we have allowed obstacles to get in the way of what God wants to do and what God wants to release.  And if we are honest, some of the stumbling blocks were not put there by Satan or based on our upbringing, nor are they any we can rightfully shift the blame to others; a lot of what is causing a traffic jam in our lives are things we have signed up for, things we have decided to incorporate into our lives.Support the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

We Want To Hear From YOU!This morning, I want to make something very clear to you about prayer and faith. Real faith prepares for what is being prayed for.Not emotionally. Not hypothetically. Practically.Because prayer is not a wish. Prayer is an invitation for God to move — and faith is the rearranging of your life in expectation that He will.And if your faith is real, if your faith is sincere, why would you not prepare for your prayer to manifestClosing song: Prepare For What You've Been Praying For by Deborah OcasioSupport the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

We Want To Hear From YOU!Sometimes we're mourning what God removed... while God is celebrating what He's making room for.  Maybe the relationship ended because your purpose couldn't.Maybe the job closed because your calling wouldn't fit there.Maybe the delay isn't punishment.Maybe it's preparation.We spend so much time asking,"Lord, why didn't this work out?"Perhaps a better question is,"Lord, what are You building that I couldn't see while I was staring at my own blueprint?"Because here's the truth:God has never looked at your life and said,"Oh no...

Creation wasn't waiting on another ingredient. It wasn't missing a chapter. Everything necessary for life had already been spoken into existence.Then thousands of years later another declaration echoed through history.As Jesus hung on the cross, He cried,"It is finished."The first declaration completed creation.The second completed redemption.One finished the world.Closing Song:  Nothing But Smokd -NOTHING NEW  written and produced by Deborah OcasioSupport the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

We Want To Hear From YOU!Can AI Glorify God? The Answer: AI is no different than a penPeople often ask,"Can AI glorify God?"A better question is:Can a pen glorify God?Can Microsoft Word glorify God?Can a piano glorify God?Can a camera glorify God?Can electricity glorify God?None of them possess faith.None of them possess the Holy Spirit.None of them pray.None of them repent.They are tools.The moral weight lies in the one holding the tool.A pen can write pornography.The same pen can write Scripture.The pen isn't righteous or sinful.The author is accountable.The same is true of AI.God often works through human handsPaul writes:"For we are labourers together with God." (1 Corinthians 3:9)God chooses to work through people.A preacher preaches.A missionary travels.A teacher instructs.An author writes.A programmer develops software.If any of these are done with a heart surrendered to Christ and in submission to His truth, then God is glorified through the obedience of the servant—not because the tool itself possesses spiritual life.Closing Song - "Ill Become" written and produced by Deborah Ocasio (https://ffm.to/ill-become)Support the showwww.BibleDeliverance.orgSupport the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

We Want To Hear From YOU!Nobody gets excited about lukewarm. Not lukewarm coffee, not lukewarm food, and definitely not lukewarm faith. God makes it plain in Revelation 3:16: “So, because you are lukewarm—neither hot nor cold—I am about to spit you out of my mouth.” That’s not just Bible poetry—that’s a divine warning.Lukewarm faith is faith that drifts with the tide. It just goes along with what’s trending, what’s popular, what keeps the crowd happy. Lukewarm faith bows to political agendas because it trusts man's provisions over God’s.Lukewarm faith is more concerned about what people think than what God knows. It’s that Sunday-only, Instagram-filter faith—loud in public but no quiet time in the presence of God.But when your faith is hot?

We Want To Hear From YOU!Scripture tells us in 2 Corinthians 5:17:"If any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things become new."Notice it doesn't say some things.  It says all things.  God specializes in making things new.Every morning I wake up, I want to be newer than I was yesterday.A little wiser.A little stronger.A little kinder.A little more disciplined.A little more hopeful.A little more like Christ.I don't want yesterday's bitterness.I don't want yesterday's excuses.I don't want yesterday's limitations.And I certainly don't want yesterday's drama showing up demanding a seat at today's table.No thank you.I've got growth to do.I've got purpose to pursue.I've got mountains to climb.So if someone tells you today, "You're acting brand new," smile and tell them:"Absolutely.

We Want To Hear From YOU!Before asking God to change the fruit, ask Him to reveal what's feeding it.Before asking Him to fix what's visible, ask Him to uncover what's hidden.Before asking Him to change your circumstances, ask Him to show you whatever is feeding the fear, frustration, bitterness, compromise, or discouragement beneath the surface.Because when God changes the source, the fruit begins to change as well.Maybe that's why these two Scriptures connect so powerfully.1 Kings 2:19 reminds us that we have access to the King.2 Kings 2:19 reminds us to bring Him the real problem.Not just the symptoms.The source.Not merely the fruit.What's feeding it.So today, don't just complain about the fruit you're seeing.Ask yourself a deeper question:What's feeding you?Because what feeds you will eventually form you.And whatever forms you will eventually be revealed through you.Have a blessed day.Closing Song: What's Feeding You? - written & produced by Deborah OcasioSupport the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

We Want To Hear From YOU!Today, before blaming the devil, blaming people, blaming circumstances, or blaming yesterday, ask yourself:"What part of this belongs to me?"  That question may sting for a moment, but it will also set you free. Because accountability is not punishment.  Accountability is the doorway to transformation. The devil may present his plate with candles, pie, and fancy decorations. But God's table always serves something the enemy can never provide: Truth, peace, purpose, and life.Choose wisely. The plate may look simpler, but the outcome is infinitely better. Have a blessed day, and remember: Mature believers don't spend their lives explaining their behavior. They spend their lives examining their behavior and owning their missteps. And that examination is often where God releases the next level of anointing. Again, be blessed.Closing Song:  This One's On Me written and produced by Deborah OcasioSupport the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

We Want To Hear From YOU!Today, I want to talk to you briefly about not your name but your brand, your methodology, and your individual marketing campaigns.  See because God is looking for some brands He can use to promote His Kingdom.We live in a culture where we give accolades based solely on a name solely on the methodology used to promote a brand.But I have a few questions for you this morning:Why are we so enthralled by brand names?Why is it a designer can sell us on wearing their brand?Why do we not allow our own name to hold a significant weightWhy do we allow our brand to be defined by someone else’s name?I don’t know if you know the story of Micah in the bible.  If you say you do I must ask? Which Micah are you referring to? See because there were several Micahs in the bible, I am going to tell you about the two who are spoken about in detailFirst, let me tell you the name  Micah means “who is like Jehovah?” The first Micah is described in  Judges 17—18. He lived during the time when Israel had no king and “every man did what was right in his own eyes” no…. Nothing but the Word of God.Micah is one example, among many, of the lawlessness that dominated Israel during this time  The people had abandoned God, chasing idols like the pagan nations around them and incorporating many aspects of idol worship into their worship of the Almighty God. They refused to obey the Lord, but since they did not yet have a king, every person did as he pleased, with no immediate repercussions. Micah’s everyday lifestyle exemplified the spiritual attitude of the people at that time. He worshipped idols, he even hired his only private priest and they proclaimed his actions to be godly.  “You shall not make for yourself an idol of any kind or an image of anything in the heavens above, on the earth below, or in the waters beneath. You shall not bow down to them or worship them” (Exodus 20:4–5).God’s commandments were forgotten as Micah and his household followed their own ideas of worship, totally contrary to those prescribed Word of God.The second significant Micah is a stark contrast to the idolatrous Micah.  And we can read about him in the book of the Bible named after him. One of the most renowned verses in the book of Micah is Micah 6:8  “He has showed you, O man, what is good. And what does the LORD require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God”  This Micah was a prophet of God.  This  Micah reminds us that, despite God’s zero tolerance toward our sin, He is also ready and waiting to forgive and restore those who repent. Even in the midst of strong warnings to Judah, Micah boasts of the hope of God.   The entire book of Micah is a complex mixture of judgment and hope. On the one hand, the prophecies announce judgment upon Israel for social evils, corrupt leadership, and idolatry. On the other hand, the book proclaims not merely the restoration of the nation, but the transformation and exaltation of Israel and Jerusalem.  Micah,  one name, but two totally different men. Our fallacy is not in our name and there is no fallacy in the wearing of designer names, the problem is exalting another’s brand and another’s persona higher than your own, while not making Jesus whose name is above all names a priority in your life.Support the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

We Want To Hear From YOU!Some biblical accounts such as those detailing speaking animals, the parting of bodies of water, and various other miracles, tend to fuel thoughts of the Bible being full of fables and fairytales.   Thoughts and measures of disbelief come easy when one doesn't believe in GOD or whose mind cannot phantom a truly Almighty GOD.  Let’s address some of the biblical accounts people tend to struggle with.  First, there is Eve’s conversation with the serpent.  We may find it hard to believe that a serpent could talk and, in a language, a human could comprehend.   What actually should be more important to us than the actual speaking of the serpent is the lesson which is that we should always be mindful that Satan who possesses the character of a snake, comes prepared, relatable, and speaks our language.   Satan is a user. When a person is demon-possessed Satan will speak through them.  Satan will use whoever and whatever will serve his purpose. Today he is more likely to use another human, but in the Garden of Eden there was no other human for him to use just Adam and Eve, so Satan used what was available and the snake was available. The account of Eve and the serpent, by no means, suggests that snakes were ever of the intellect that would have enabled them to speak coherently.  Bible scholars agree, that Satan was speaking through the snake and not the snake itself speaking on its own. This consensus is derived from the fact that there was no reason for any “uninfluenced”, GOD-created creature to seek to deceive or destroy another, so any plan of deceit or destruction had to be the workings of Satan.  Now in the story of Balaam’s donkey speaking to him, scriptures are clear, and bears witness to the power of GOD, as it reads “the Lord opened the donkey’s mouth”, Numbers 22:28. GOD using the donkey to talk also lets us know Satan does not have access to do or use anything GOD does not have access to use or do, for Satan is not greater than GOD.   Satan used a serpent to talk for him and GOD chose a donkey.  The moral of the accounts of the speaking animals in the Bible is that deliverance and deception can come out and through anything or anyone.  Therefore, it is important we know the Word of GOD, so we can discern the voice of GOD and not be deceived and ultimately destroyed by the agenda and manipulation of the enemy. The second most questioned event in the Bible is the parting of the Red Sea.  The Washington Post released an article alluding that the parting of the Red Sea, “in real life” would have been explained as a "weather event”.  The article provides an analysis comparing the biblical account to what is scientifically referred to as a “wind set down”.  A “wind set down” involves strong winds, over 60 miles per hour, which creates a “push” of coastal waters, in turn creating a storm surge, which is known to blow harbors completely dry.  The article concluded, that the parting of the Red Sea would have been possible in extreme weather conditions, in “real life”, but is “iffy” in biblical times because man cannot explain the timing which aligns with Moses holding out his staff (Exodus 14:21-31).    Science seems to be willing to give GOD a little credit for His ability to control nature, but at the same time, limit the extent of His power and His timing, based solely on only what the human mind can perceive.  “With man this is impossible, but with GOD all things are possible”, Matthew 19:26. The parting of the Red Sea is the single greatest act of salvation in the Old Testament and represents GOD’s ultimate saving power and shows the depth and extent GOD will go through to save us. Closing Songs:  "Take A Look And See" and "Worth More Than A Million" Written and produced by Deborah Ocasio, available on Spotify, YouTube Music, Apple Music, Pandora, Sound Cloud and more.Support the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org
