Jesus however didn't just die to save our souls, He died to heal our souls.And He doesn't just want to heal you, He wants to make you whole, which means getting to the root of what ails you.In today's episode I'm encouraging you to believe God for more than just raising your hand and giving your life to Christ, but allowing Christ to heal you from the inside out. Jesus heals beyond the surface. He came to heal the brokenhearted and make us whole—not just physically, but emotionally and spirituallyDealing with the root causes of pain and traumaHow real soul healing happens Walking in the fullness of Christ, rejecting the lies and embracing the truth of who we are in HimPractical steps to soul healing Ask yourself, "Am I living as someone who is truly whole in Christ, or am I still carrying old wounds?"Resources Mentioned in this Episode:Bible References:Romans 12:2 – Renewing your mind for transformationIsaiah 61:1 – Jesus came to heal the brokenheartedMatthew 11:28 – “Come to me, all who labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.”Book:Effortless Change - Andrew Wommack What Next?Spend time today and ask the Holy Spirit, what lies am I believing?

You don't have to perform to receive God's promises because Jesus has already paid the price... in full. The problem is most believers don't yet know that and we do things to try and "move the hand of God" and get what we want. Believing is how you receive se even in our giving, we don't have to give to get! What Paul, in 2 Corinthians 9: 6-8, has to say about thisWhat it truly mean to give with intention and a cheerful heartWhy the condition of your heart more important than the amount you giveHow your belief about God influence your ability to receive from HimFinding the balance between your faith and action in your givingTrusting God as your ultimate providerI pray you experience God's Grace and receive from Him in abundance.Declare With Me:Pick up your Bible and declare:My God shall supply all of my need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus, and I give out of a heart of giving because I know how good God is to me and I stand on the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ. Nothing I give will be a depletion from what I have, but it will only bring increase, because I already have those things because God has already promised me that he will take care of me. And so on that basis, I am an abundant giver.And I give with abundance, with love and grace and thankfulness that God is more to me than everything that I have put together. But I don't have to give out of fear or need or obligation, because God loves it when I give as a cheerful giver. So thank you, Lord, that I have more and more to give you. And I give out of the abundance of the gratefulness in my heart. In Jesus name, Amen. Resources Mentioned In Today's Episode:Troy Black's video's on tithing - You May Have Tithing WrongThe Tithing Prophecy No One Wants to HearMore Resources from Trish:IW Unleashed - A NEW membership community for mission-minded influential women.
