Hey Sis, in this Faith series episode, we get honest about something many believers feel but rarely talk about:

It’s how the Word of God confronts you before it blesses you. Before the breakthrough, the Word searches you. Before the blessing, the Word exposes what needs healing. Before the increase, the Word reveals what must be uprooted. Using Isaiah 55, Mark 4, Hebrews 4:12 , and my personal journey of becoming “good soil,” this episode walks you through why God confronts the heart before He releases the promise — and why that confrontation is actually evidence of His love, not His anger. If you feel stretched, corrected, challenged, or uncomfortable in your faith right now…God isn’t punishing you. He’s preparing you.

✨ What You’ll Learn
