In this episode of The Given Truth, we look at the lives of Daniel and Job—two men placed in radically different trials, yet anchored in the same unshakable identity in God. Daniel faced pressure to compromise in a foreign culture that demanded assimilation. Job endured unimaginable loss, suffering, and silence. Neither allowed circumstances to redefine who they were before God. Through their stories, we explore what it means to remain faithful when obedience costs you comfort, status, or understanding. This episode challenges the modern struggle with identity and reminds us that true identity is not shaped by culture, success, or suffering—but by steadfast trust in God. If you’ve ever wrestled with doubt, loss, or pressure to conform, this message is for you

What does it mean to trust God when the moment to act feels justified? In this video, we walk through 1 Samuel 24, where David refuses to take Saul’s life even when given the perfect opportunity—choosing obedience over revenge. We connect this to Matthew 26, where Jesus submits to the Father’s will in Gethsemane, trusting God’s purpose even in suffering. Romans 12 calls believers to reject vengeance and overcome evil with good, while Psalm 105 reminds us that God is faithful to His promises and moves in His perfect timing. These scriptures echo the words attributed to King Baldwin IV, who spoke of obedience to God not as weakness, but as true strength—trusting that God’s will, not human force, brings lasting victory. This message is about restraint, faith, humility, and the courage to wait on God—especially when the world says you have every right to strike back. Scriptures covered: 📖 1 Samuel 24 📖 Matthew 26 📖 Romans 12 📖 Psalm 105 If this message encourages you to trust God’s timing and walk in obedience, consider liking, sharing, and subscribing.

In this episode we dive deep into john 7:38 what Jesus says is foretold in Ezekiel and proceeded by Paul in 1 Corinthians

This is my Testimony how I came back to God a little bit of backstory on me as a person and what the aims of the podcast are I'm not a theologian or a scholar just a simple man who is trying to walk with God and help others start their walk or pick those up who might have fallen along the way
