So creepy, man.
You're so creepy man.
Hey, spirits.
Hey, babies.
Hey, Looshes.
What's up, Loosh?
I'm Angie.
I'm Ari.
And this is Girls Gone By-What, don't you say today?
And this is Girls Gone Bible.
We talk everything.
Jesus and the Bible.
Jesus took us two girls.
And he took us from the pit.
And he brought us to life.
And he saved our lives.
And now we live to lead hearts to Jesus and share the good news.
The good news.
It's good news.
Come as you are.
Just don't stay that way.
We say it to ourselves, too, by the way.
I was going to say, God's constantly working on us every single day.
Guys, we're so happy to be with you today.
Oh, my gosh.
We want to tell you a little bit of testimony from this past weekend in where were we?
We went to Portland and Seattle.
By the way, this weekend, Girls Gone Bible Tour, we're going to be a
L.A. So if you are in California, if you're anywhere near SoCal, guys, the L.A. show, it's the last
GGB night of this year. We'll pick back up next year. But we are, I know, it's so crazy.
Come to L.A. It's December 6th at the Wilshire Theater. I'm so excited. I mean, it's like
our home base. Yeah. We've been waiting to do a show in L.A. I've been waiting.
I can't believe we have one more show of the season. By the way, the L.A. show is going to be our
41st
Girls Gone Bible
tour night. I don't
know, but it's been
so cool. What country
would you guys
would like to
see us come to?
What country would you guys like
us to bring tour to? Yeah.
I'm so curious. Like what is
I know so many of you guys from around the world
are listening and I just want to know, we want
to know where would you like us to come?
My top choices for tour are Australia, South Africa, Albania, should we do a little Greece stop?
Like, Japan?
Dude, if we take GGB to Japan, I will lose my freaking mind.
Canada?
North Korea.
Yeah, Kim Jong-Ku.
If you say his name on, like, the internet, do you get, like, banned from something?
I don't think so.
I'm just going to, yeah.
Say it.
No, we went to a party one time, and I thought.
I thought I met Kim Jong-un, and his name was Chris.
I was, like, panicking, and his name was Chris.
And his name is not Kim Jong-un, by the way.
It's Kim Jong-un.
Okay.
Okay.
Anyway, so, Ari and I were in Portland and Seattle this weekend, and guys, we just want to tell you a little bit about, like, Seattle was one of the most special nights of tour we've ever had.
It was so powerful.
and I'm pretty sure you said it earlier that day you had said something like I feel like God wants people to feel seen tonight and there was just like an anointing over the whole night and I can only describe it as like God sees his people and it goes like so well with what we're reading today but I felt like the whole night everything we even talked about on stage as I looked out into the crowd and saw so many people getting wrecked by God it felt like I just got a sense of
said it was just so personal.
Like people were like, this is, whatever they're saying,
Angie and Ari, it's not even about them or what they're saying.
God is speaking to me, and it felt personal for people.
And then Ari and I, during the ministry time at the end,
we're praying for people, we're praying for healing.
We have testimonies for physical healings that took place for mental healing.
Like, this is so crazy, you guys.
A woman, we prayed for her back.
She had like really severe back pain.
she couldn't even barely drive or sit in a chair.
She has no back pain.
Like, first it went away partially and then it went away completely.
This is the testimony of Jesus, a real God who's obsessed with his people and wants to heal them.
And then something else that was special about Seattle was like, because of this anointing where God, like, wanted people to know that they were seen by him personally.
I feel like both of us, there was just like a prophetic.
anointing over both of us where we were both releasing words of knowledge and it was so it's just so
cool Jesus is so cool like why is he so amazing did you sense that dude yeah of course I did
of course it was on those two Portland too yeah I mean you said Seattle I said Seattle but I'm just
talking about Seattle specifically it was like but even the first night I felt it too I was I couldn't I
we both got off stage and looked to each other and we go what was that?
It's so crazy. So crazy. I want to tell a little story. So, you know, operating in the prophetic, in prophetic gifting is something, it's like a muscle that you train. It's a gift from God. And he desires for us to all have every gift. And like you can literally ask. And some people might be more prophetic than others. Some people might be a strong evangelist than others. So, right, we all have different gifts. But prophetic gifting is something that you should ask for.
And the point of being prophetic is not to do like a magic trick, like palm reader, like tarot card reader.
It's literally the point is to edify and to build up the church when you release a word.
And specifically, people encounter Jesus when you give them a prophetic word because oftentimes you reveal to them that God knows something about them that there's no way I can know that.
Right.
So that's the point of like releasing a prophetic word is just being like, oh, God sees me.
like this person, God spoke through this person because there's no way they could have known that.
And so I've given many words of knowledge as I'm praying.
I will always be like I feel like I sense or I see, for example, you as a little girl and
maybe your dad is absent and blah, blah, blah, right?
So oftentimes I give words that are like going to, like, cause some emotion, right?
Oftentimes it's like emotional.
You're reaching into something that is emotional for someone.
And so it's like typical for someone to be crying during something like that.
But something so cool happened.
And like it's so small, but it was such a faith builder for me because I'm praying for this woman.
And we're praying for so many people and everyone's bawling their eyes out.
They're running up for prayer.
And then this woman comes up and I feel okay to tell this story.
But she comes up and she's not crying.
She's not emotional.
She's not, like, going through something crazy.
She's really calm.
And she's like, well, you just pray for me.
I'm going to be a stay-at-home mom.
And I want my, I don't remember what she said, but something like, just pray for me.
And I'm like, okay.
So I lay hands.
I start praying for her.
And as I'm praying, I just see her sitting, doing arts and crafts with her baby.
That means nothing to me, right?
Right, right.
And so as I'm praying, I'm like, this is so weird, but I see you doing arts and crafts.
this woman was non-emotional completely calm she pulls back from me and goes
and like starts bawling her eyes out and i go ah what happened i'm literally like what
what was that and it was just so funny because i like completely got out of the moment because to see
someone arts and crafts what does that mean i don't know but that meant something for that was that must
be something that's hidden in her heart a secret between her and god something that is like so personal to
her and right it wasn't a big deal i didn't give her some long prophetic word about where god is
going to take her in her life arts and crafts like that's literally all i said and it produced such a
sense of like god sees me and knows me it's just a faith builder that people are like he really he is
real yeah and he does care about whatever arts and crafts means to her it's just so cool i love that
it's so crazy to think to think about our tour of we thought we thought we
We were just going to go and share our testimonies and meet the people.
Answer questions.
We had no idea that this was going to be literally a place of revival and
healings and miracle signs and wonders to ordinary girls, seriously.
It's a continuation of the book of Acts.
That's what we're doing.
And that's what we're all called to do.
We are so obsessed with the ministry of Jesus, the ministry of the Holy Spirit, to cast out demons, to heal the sick.
to pray boldly for healing, to operate out of prophetic gifting.
Guys, being a Christian isn't just about like just live in a cute life.
Thank you, Jesus, hallelujah.
Like, it is about going out and being the hands and feet.
Jesus said you will do greater things than I.
So that means that we're meant to go out.
Whatever we read in the Bible is actually not even our limitation to what we should be doing.
We should be doing things greater than what Jesus did because that's what he said.
Thank you for saying that because influencing is not just speaking.
on a podcast and being on a stage and preaching the gospel, like we are to be in the dirt
with people. And I love that's why we're reading the story today because I even had a moment
in Seattle with a man. And we can take this out if he doesn't. I'll ask him before we post it,
but his name was Sam. I posted a photo with him. It was one of the most monumental moments of my
entire life. And I noticed him in the crowd. I called him over.
I said, are you dealing with a sickness?
He was told by the doctors that he only has five to ten years left, and he was blind in his eyes.
And he said that I had spoke to him in a way.
I knew things in a way that nobody else knew.
And he said he was delivered from so much that night.
And so, you know, I can't believe how I was a girl who was so timid and afraid and just
staying in communion with Jesus, really going deeper in intimacy with him.
What I like to do before we go on tour, even like in the mornings, even when I start my day,
right, I'll pray and I'll be like, what do you have for me today?
Like, can you give me visions of the people?
Like, what do you see?
Like, in your secret time, in the mornings, I will, like, do you do that?
Like, I'll pray, I'll be like, give me visions.
What do you see?
Lead me to a scripture to show me what the people are going through.
And one of the scriptures that I was led to before we went on tour two was about strength and authority.
And so I felt such, and I believe you did too, of such a strength and authority of those two nights.
And that is what we saw.
Yeah.
I've never seen such a strength and authority of two nights in my life like I did.
And so it was so cool.
It's so cool when God speaks to you.
It's so cool.
And can I just say this girl right here, GGB, you don't know what we have on our hands, a prayer warrior, a crazy, prophetic, mighty woman of God.
And I mean that with my entire being.
I don't even know who you are.
Thank you.
I literally don't know who you are.
I don't know who you've become.
Your life is a miracle.
Who you are.
It's just insane.
The power and the authority that you walk in.
You are truly just not, like, you're just not the person that you want, that timid person
who's like, God, does my prayer sound good?
Like, you are a warrior, a warrior.
I love you so much.
So thank you for saying that.
But I, and I feel like that that's what we want to talk about too today.
Like there's so much timidity with people that they have their heads down.
And I'm like, no, you are a mighty man, a mighty woman of God.
You put your shoulders back and your head up and you go out and be the man or woman that God called you to be.
Yeah, be empowered.

Be empowered, be encouraged. Let's start reading because this is really exciting.
Okay, so we have this moment.
If you guys listened to last week's episode, we talked about Moses and the Burning
Bush.
We read Exodus 3 to 10, and now we're going to start from verse 10, and we're going to
continue on to the rest of the chapter.
We have Moses in the burning bush.
The Lord appears to Moses, and this is such a profound, dynamic, important moment in
history, in the history of our faith, where God comes down.
to his people and gives Moses the call that he's going to lead the Israelites out of Egypt into
the promised land. And Moses is going to have to go through a lot. The Israelites are going to have
to go through a lot. And this is the moment where God truly reveals where he stands. He's not
neutral. He's not detached. He's not absent. This is the moment where he steps down and says,
I stand with the oppressed. I stand with the suffering. I stand with the hurting. The suffering of my
people matter so much to me. And it also matters that they know that I hear them. I see them
and I'm on a rescue mission always, always. I wrote down, the Exodus begins with a God who moves
towards pain. That's who God is. Every time he sees pain, every time he sees suffering. God is never
wondering, shoot, what are we going to do? How are we going to get out of this? I didn't see this
one coming. Let me think for a second. He's a God who knows the beginning from the end and is
always prepared for deliverance, for freedom. And when he sees a need, he immediately moves to
meet it. And when he sees pain, he immediately moves to help. Yeah. Yeah, that's so good.
Let's start with verse nine. And now behold, the cry of the people of Lord, we love you. We love your
word so much. We lift your word high above every opinion. Anything that sets itself up against you,
Jesus. We just ask that you'd remove it in Jesus name. Any opinion, any preconceived notion,
any interpretation that isn't aligned with your spirit. God, I just pray that you'd remove all
the junk and that your spirit would lead us to teach and preach and communicate your word
effectively and with integrity. Jesus, thank you for the authoritative word of
God that we build our lives on. We bless your name, God. We bless your word in Jesus' name.
And now, behold, the cry of the people of Israel has come to me, and I have also seen the oppression
with which the Egyptians oppress them. Come, I will send you to Pharaoh that you may bring my people,
the children of Israel, out of Egypt. But Moses said to God, who am I that I should go to Pharaoh and
bring the children of Israel out of Egypt. I just want to pause. This is a moment where Moses,
God is calling Moses. He's calling him to vocation. And Moses resists the call of God on his life
because of insecurity, because of doubt in himself, because he does not feel qualified. This is a
massive moment in scripture. Who am I that I should go to Pharaoh and bring the children
of Israel out of Egypt? God said, but I will be with you. And
And this shall be the sign for you, that I have sent you.
When you have brought the people out of Egypt, you shall serve God on this mountain.
But Moses protested, if I go to the people of Israel and tell them, the God of your ancestors has sent me to you.
They will ask me, what is his name?
Then what should I tell him?
Then what should I tell them?
God replied to Moses, I am who I am.
Say this to the people of Israel.
I am, has sent me to you.
God also said to Moses, say this to the people of Israel.
Yahweh, the God of your ancestors, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob
has sent you.
This is my eternal name, my name to remember for all generations.
Now go and call together all the elders of Israel.
Tell them, Yahweh, the God of your ancestors, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and
the God of Jacob has appeared to me.
He told me, I have been watching closely, and I see you.
how the Egyptians are treating you. He sees, he sees, he sees. I have promised to rescue you from
your oppression in Egypt. I will lead you to a land flowing with milk and honey. The land where
the Canaanites, Hittites, Amurites, Parasites, Hivites, and Jebusites now live.
The elders of Israel will accept your message. Then you and the elders must go to the king of
Egypt and tell them, the Lord, the God of the Hebrews, has met us.
So please let us take a three-day journey into the wilderness to offer sacrifices to the Lord, our God.
But I know that the king of Egypt will not let you go unless a mighty hand forces him.
So I will raise my hand and strike the Egyptians, performing all kinds of miracles among them.
Then at last, he will let you go.
And I will cause the Egyptians to look favorably on you.
They will give you gifts when you go, so you will not leave empty-handed.
every israelite woman will ask for articles of silver and gold and fine clothing from her
Egyptian neighbors and from the foreign women in their houses you will dress your sons and daughters
with these stripping the Egyptians of their wealth this is such a good story my faith was just like
set on fire this morning when I was reading because I was like he is so sovereign and he's so
aware and God sees everything and he always has a plan even when we have no idea what's going
on. So we begin with God approaching Moses and giving him a call to vocation, which means that God
is coming to Moses saying that I, well, you have probably had a plan for your life, a way that
you thought things would go, maybe even dreams and desires, I am coming to you with a call.
I am calling you to something that glorifies me and that builds my people up.
And he's basically saying to Moses, like, I have something so specific for you, the purposes
and the plans that I have for your life, I'm approaching you.
And we all have a moment like this in our lives or many moments like this where God approaches
us disrupts our plans completely and says, I have a call on your life. Are you going to rise to
the occasion? Are you going to answer the call? Because in this moment, we find Moses, as we see,
protests to God. Imagine God shows up himself. It's all of our dreams is that God would come down,
sit on our bed, and be like, hey, girl, here's the plan I have for your life. This is the guy you're
going to date. This is what you're going to do. That's all of our dreams that God,
would come and speak that clearly to us and we have Moses who God he literally has I'm like jealous of
his encounter with God because to have God come down and give you direct instructions on how you're
going to carry out his will is such a gift and Moses responds by protesting and Moses responds we have
Moses here and he completely freezes because he is overcome and overwhelmed with
a lack of identity, a lack of purpose, a lack of vision.
All he can probably think about in this moment is his failures and his flaws and why he is
not the person for this job.
So God is standing in front of him saying, I have called you to this.
And if I've called you to this, of course that means that I know about your flaws.
I know about these things about you.
But Moses still is so caught up in his own weaknesses that he protests and says,
who am I to appear before Pharaoh, which is such a clear indication of the identity with,
or of the issue that we all have with identity, that when you don't know who you are,
you'll be asking, who am I?
But if you know who God is, you rarely ever ask that question.
Because God makes it so clear in this moment, guess what, Moses, sweet, sweet man,
it's not about who you are.
And I love this because Moses asks, who am I?
And God doesn't answer his question.
And so while Moses is stuck in insecurity and self-doubt,
some people might expect God to like coddle him a little bit and be like,
Moses, but like, you're so handsome, you're so strong.
Who better than you?
Yeah.
But God does not sit there and try and build him up with compliments.
Like he literally actually doesn't disagree with him.
Yeah, yeah.
He actually affirms him.
Yeah.
Who are you?
Yeah.
Thank God, that's not the point.
He answers and says, the one thing that Moses truly needs, I will be with you.
Yeah, yeah.
So every time Moses is insecure and focused on himself, God responds by saying, look at who I am.
Yeah.
I will be with you.
It's not about who you are.
It's about my presence going with you.
Yeah.
It's all about if you can get back, when you're struggling with self-doubt, if you can
please try to take your eyes off of your capability.
and what you think you're worthy of
and what you think that you're able to do
and focus on if I have the presence of God with me
and in me, in me.
He, the same spirit that raised Jesus from the dead,
if that dwells inside of me,
there's literally nothing that I can't do
if God has called me to it.
And the whole foundation of all of this
that I love so much is that God is not asking Moses
to be a hero.
He's just asking him to believe
that he is who he says he is, you know?
Yeah. Do you have anything?
And I think that, and I think that's another thing that I love so much about this journey
with the Lord is that these things that we have beat ourselves up since we were kids about,
I mean, I've always just felt so disqualified.
All these things that I have thought would hold me back from my life's purpose.
And what I love about Jesus and even the story so much is like, he doesn't sit there with
Moses and be like, oh, let me heal
your stuttering problem.
So. Let me take away
these little things that you feel so
disqualified for. Let me help you.
But don't want, like he goes,
okay. Yeah. He's like,
he's up, but I'll be with you.
Like, and that is the
greatest, that is the greatest
part about Jesus. It's like,
we think we need all these things.
We think we need to be so.
Yeah. I don't know.
Educated and all these things.
godly and all these things and it's like it's in those moments where he breaks you is where he
whispers in your ear now you go now you're ready and i just i've never related more to a
scripture than this one because this is how many of us are like moses like where we sit there and
we're like no i i i look at my family look at where i come from look at i'm too far gone how could
i don't have a college education i'm in
my 30s. I'm in my 50s. Like, my time is up. I've sinned too much. My past is too dirty. Yeah. Like,
I could never. Like, God could never use me. And it's the, like, if you look back to everyone in the
Bodies. Grand Canyon University is an affordable private Christian university in beautiful Phoenix,

Bible, the shepherd boy, David, Joseph, who got thrown in prison and got thrown in a pit by his brothers.
Like, it's everyone that was in their most, what is the word?
Vulnerable, weakest.
Just the weakest shepherd boys.
Like, the person that you would never think is the one that God chooses.
Always.
And so, yeah, it's, I just, I love this so much.
I will be with you.
I just wanted to say one more thing about this.
We get so in our feelings, but everything is rooted to pride.
When we think about, like, we sit there and I'm like, I can't do this.
I can't do that.
I'm not ready.
And we hold ourselves back so much from the call that God.
has in our lives. And while we think, like, it's all rooted to pride. You think it's humility,
but it's actually pride. Yeah. Who, like, what do you mean? You can't, God's calling you to do
something, but you're sitting there and you're questioning God. That's why it's so important to be
rooted in the word, not what your heart and your emotions say, because they can be so deceiving.
And it's all rooted in fear. I love that you say that so much because false humility,
people think that they're being humble when so often they're actually being prideful
and it's false humility that could potentially thwart God's will in your life
because you are disqualifying yourself and calling it being humble.
Genuinely, in this moment, Moses is stuck in pride by being so absorbed in his own insecurity
and I just want to encourage everybody that do not be the one who disqualifies yourself.
Don't do that to yourself.
Don't use language like, who am I to do this?
I can't do this.
I could never be good enough for this.
That's baloney, garbage, silly, goofy spirits.
Like, that's not good.
You can literally do anything if God is calling you to do it.
My favorite thing my mom has ever done is giving me a little bit of delusional confidence
where she's like, she's like from a really young age,
she's like, there's nothing you can't do.
There's nothing you can't do.
And so I'm generally, I'm going to believe.
now with Jesus on my side, not in an arrogant way, if I have the spirit of the living God
inside of me. And he, now, if I want to do something he's not calling me to do, that's different.
But if God is calling me to something, I am going to have ridiculous confidence, not in myself,
but in Jesus. And my desperation is going to show up as, Lord, if you don't come, I can't do it.
But I am not going to sit there and disqualify myself because of my own insecurities.
When God is so much bigger than every single one of my flaws, every single one of my weaknesses, you know?

Honestly, guys, this time of year is so beautiful, but it's chaotic.
Between holiday parties, travel, food, your routines just go out the window.
Yeah, lately, I've been reminding myself that instead of trying to be perfect,
I can at least support my foundational health, and that's why I started taking ritual.
Ritual's essential multivitamin has been such a grounding part of our day.
We take the essential for women's 18 plus every morning before we head out,
and we love knowing that we've filled nutrient gaps in a really clean, traceable way.
And the delayed release capsules are gentle on the stomach, which is huge for us.
The minty essence doesn't hurt either.
It actually makes taking a multivitamin actually enjoyable.
And one thing that really sold me, Ritual actually ran a university-led clinical trial on their essential for women 18 plus.

best sale of the season. Yeah. And I think that's one of the things I've really learned this this past
year because I think I've really stopped into a new boldness and authority. It's like,
but he sent you. But why are you saying what you can't do? I've sent you. So go. I'm with you.
And so I've really tried to get out of his way and just more lean into being like your grace is sufficient for me.
So please help me in this moment.
So instead of complaining and being like, I can't, I can't, I more lean into now being like, I feel weak right now, Lord.
I need your strength to come upon me right now because I can't do this.
Like, I need you in this moment.
And we've, that's happened so many times on tour with us where we're so out of strength where we're like how in the world.
are we going to do that?
And we both look at each other
and we do that prayer.
Lord, your grace is sufficient for me.
It can be my strength.
I am weak right now.
I need your strength.
And it's just been this beautiful,
it's been beautiful to lean into that,
especially this past year.
I feel so compelled to tell every person listening,
genuinely.
If you're in a situation,
like I feel like I want to tell you guys
to get out of your own.
way. Get out of your head. Stop thinking so much. Be discerning. Be thoughtful. Be prayerful about
things. And step out in faith. Stop. Don't ever use the words I can't. Stop disqualifying
yourself. Stop believing lies about who you are and what you're capable of. Like have confidence
that God lives inside of you and you can do anything that you put your mind to.
that if God is with you and he's called you to it, and genuinely, you got to get out of your head.
You have to get out of this.
Don't live in here of like, you've just, you've got a breakthrough insecurity.
You have to break through a lack of identity.
You have to just choose and be like, this is not the life that God has called me to live.
He has not called me to be identityless and purposeless and afraid to step out and do anything
and feeling like I'm not good enough.
Truthfully, say a prayer and then choose to come out.
of agreement with those lies. I really feel that so strongly that, like, it's a choice. It's a
choice that you make to be like, you know what? I'm done. I'm done believing lies about myself
and being stuck in this victim. Like, who am I to do it, though? I can't do. Yes, you can.
And the way to do that, the way to come out of that, the way to find your identity is to go
deeper. You think you're deeper now. You go deeper. I have stepped into a new bolt, like God has
truly, I'm going to tell you.
I have literally, I'm going to show you a picture I took for you guys.
I have this in my house.
We'll put it bigger.
It's a girl with her hands over her head.
I had someone pray for me last week in my home.
And he said, you see that girl?
That's not you anymore.
God is calling you into a new season.
And you guys, I can't even tell you the boldness and authority I have stepped into.
Why?
Because I have gone deeper with Jesus where people will think you are so nuts that you
Just know that you're in a good place.
Like my, you know what my Friday nights have looked like this past year?
On my floor, studying the Word of God, you want boldness and authority.
This is it right here.
This is what you need.
This is it.
And where everyone is looking to other people, to things, to validation on social media.
It's empty.
And that's the problem.
You are never going to feel bold and have authority.
through these things that are fleeting.
You want authority, study this.
You want authority, sit in your prayer time
when it seems uncomfortable in the moments
where you want to get up.
Sit there.
Spend time with the Lord.
Do you know why I have authority and a boldness?
Because I feel safe.
Because I have peace.
And when you feel safe and you have peace,
you have a boldness and authority
that cannot shake you.
There has been a voice in my head
since I'm a kid, tormenting my mind,
telling me that whispering things in my ear
that I'll never be anything, then I'm stuck, that I'm not educated, that's been following me
since I was a little girl.
And I was just talking to someone about this, but like, I can't believe that I don't
struggle with that anymore.
I don't struggle with those voices and the torment in my mind.
Satan is an accuser, and if he can keep you timid and fear with your head down, feeling
I'm stuck constantly saying that you're never going to be anything and you can't go.
You're going to miss the call of God.
And that's why we have to guard our hearts and we have to guard our minds.
We have to put on the helmet of salvation scripture cells.
You put on the helmet of, you put on the belt of righteousness.
You saturate yourself with the word of God.
You spend time with the Lord.
When you do that, you have boldness.
You have safety.
You have peace.
authority. That's so good. So then verse 12 says, God answered, I will be with you. And then again,
Moses protests. Again, a second time he says, all right, well, if I go to the people of Israel and
tell them the God of your ancestors that sent me to you, they will ask me what is his name? Then what should
I tell them? So you see the first time God calls him, Moses protests with, well, who am I? And then
the second time Moses says, well, who are you? So it's like these two,
as Ari said, Satan is an accuser, and he always comes for two things, your identity and your
perception of God. And so in this moment, Moses says, if I go to the people of Israel, what do I say
that their name is? And God replies to Moses and says, I am who I am. Say this, that the I am has sent
you. And what I love so much about this moment is that when Moses asked for God's name, because this is
so important. This is so important that we know who God is. And it's really specific to know what
his name is, where he comes from. And that's why anyone who's listening, who is under the
impression that God can be anything, that he can be the universe. You can know Allah and God.
You can be a little Christian. You can be a little Hindu. I'm telling you right now with so
much compassion in my heart, you are believing a flat out lie. There is only one God. His name is
Jesus and his name isn't also Allah. There's not a universal God where Muslims and Hindus and
agnostics and all these people, we could just like collective, it's not a collective consciousness.
Like Jesus, Yahweh, he goes on to say, he goes on to say that say this to the people.
You guys, the holidays are basically here and we are in our please don't make us over think gifts this year era.

People of Israel, Yahweh, the God of your ancestors, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, the God of Jacob has sent me to you.
This is my eternal name.
My name.
That's why we say, in the name of Jesus.
The name of Jesus, Yahweh, Yeshua, like it is so, it is the most authoritative thing that we have in this world is the name of Jesus.
And if you're somebody or you know somebody who thinks that God is just, I have been preaching this so much recently, that Jesus is not an idea.
Yahweh is not an abstract deity that's somewhere far away.
He is a God who binds himself to people because he is obsessed with humans, because he created them for himself.
It's like when people say Jesus loves you, it's not just like a little sweet sentiment like Jesus loves you.
It is a commitment.
It is a God who has given everything to his people, who is fully and wholeheartedly devoted and committed, covenanted to a people.
He's not just an idea.
So this moment is so powerful of God saying, I have a name.
I am a person.
I have a character.
And my name has to be exalted above every other name.
And there cannot be any mixture.
This is the first time because the Israelites go on a long journey of idolatry and weird practices and believing in other gods.
And just like a lot of confusion, perversion, weirdness.
And like, sure, we don't do the things.
things the Israelites did, but we get confused. We have idolatry. And specifically, there are a lot of
people who have mixture, Christianity and New Age, Christianity and the universe. I love Jesus's
teachings, but I also love these Hindu practices or whatever the heck. That's not okay. That's
literally all I can say. That there is one name by which, there is one name under heaven by which men can
be saved and it's the name of Jesus. And if there's anybody in your life or even yourself
who you have even a little bit of mixture in your heart, you have completely missed it. One degree
off of Jesus, one degree off of Yahweh, you are completely opening yourself up to darkness.
That is why worship is giving yourself entirely, completely. And so this is just the most
important. Like, this is for me, like, yeah, identity's imperfect. Identity is important and knowing who
you are, but knowing who God is and the place that you have to have him in your life is most important
because guess what? Then you don't even care about who you are. Because when you have an
understanding of who Jesus is, it changes everything about your life. You move through life so much
differently. Tragedy can hit your life and people will be like, why are you like, how is your head
above water right now. How are you getting through the days? How are you even kind of okay in this?
And you go, because I know who God is. I know who God is and that changes everything.
And you know what he says about you. Yes. That's why we walk in boldness and confidence because
we know what he says about us. We don't go by our emotions or what our people around us say
or what the internet. We know what God says about us so we can walk in that authority and boldness
and safety and peace.
I was very heart-centered.
I was so ruled by emotions.
I was so ruled by emotions.
I was so ruled by what others said about me.
One thing that I wrote down is
the Exodus is not just escape.
It is transformation.
It's a story of slaves becoming people,
victims becoming worshippers,
and the wounded becoming whole.
I love this so much
because God's whole purpose for us
is that we would live free.
lives. This story in scripture is so important because it just sets us up for the rest of
the Bible and for the rest of our own lives that God came to bind the brokenhearted and set
the captives free. We are meant to live in freedom. Yeah. Yeah. And I am constantly aware of
the areas in my life that I'm not free. And I am constantly not okay with not being free.
Yeah. Every time something comes up or I go through something, even things I'm walking through right now
that I'm like, oh, I'm not free there.
I'm not free in this area.
What did God come to do?
Free me.
What did Jesus die for?
Freedom.
So what am I not going to do?
Settle for being bound.
And what I love about the rest of the story, too, is that God is honest about the cost.
Because he tells him, Pharaoh's not just going to let you leave.
I'm going to have to intervene.
I wish we could read the rest of Exodus because it's so good.
Pharaoh starts going nuts. He is just such an awful ruler and God literally sends plagues and sends
famines and sends all this stuff. God deliberately intervenes to show his power to get the glory
and to free his people. And ultimately the whole point of this story is that God wants us to be
free, delivered. And he wants to be the one to do it. That's right. He wants to use people,
have us participate, but he gets the glory. And so God will start doing miracles and signs and wonders,
like insane things, parting the Red Sea, bringing manna from heaven, getting water from a rock.
Like, he does all of these miracles to show his people. Like, not only do I love you and I care for you
and I'll provide for you in these ways, I am Yahweh. I am God. There is no other God besides me.
So it is the story of a God who refuses to let bondage define his people.
And he always moves toward freedom.
God refuses.
If you're listening right now and you're in bondage and you're not free and your heart is broken and you're living in the past or you're addicted to something and you just know in your heart, I'm not free.
Just letting you know, God is a God who is obsessed with you being free, who has a rescue mission happening.
right now. And he's inviting you into freedom. He's inviting your participation. He's inviting
you to take the steps forward necessary that would bring you the freedom that you're looking
for. But you have to understand that it is a lie from the devil that there's anything in your
life that you just have to live with forever. You don't. You don't. You can be free. It's God's
desire that you'd be free. And it takes time. Yeah, sometimes. And so it takes a long
time sometimes so what we'll just say to you is don't give up when you don't even though it's still
hurts and you feel like you're taking five steps back so good it takes time yeah to be free from
something you've been addicted to or have made an idol for so long so just don't give up because
in the middle of you wanting to give up is when God is doing his best work literally don't grow weary
don't give up please I love that you said that are don't freaking give up can I say freaking on the
podcast I don't know
Okay.
God led me to Psalm 93, 193 today, and I just wanted to read it.
Praise the lamb.
I love you, Jesus.
He also led me to Psalm 138.
I love 138.
You know those moments when he, he, like, leads you to a scripture, and he ministers through scriptures.
Sweet Jesus.
What do you say?
I read in Psalm 38.
138. Psalm 138, though the Lord is great, he cares for the humble, but he keeps his distance
from the proud. And so when you think, that's right. So it's like, it's these moments, even though
you feel so inadequate, let him work. Like, God, that's why he chooses you. That's why he says, I want
that one because you don't think you're too proud. So when you're watching everyone with their fake
confidence and arrogance, everywhere, just like you should be, God is so proud of you. God is so pleased
with you. You are not timid. You are not afraid. You are not what the doctors or your teachers told
you. You are a mighty man or a mighty woman God. I don't know who I'm talking to right now,
but I want to let you know, put your shoulders back and put your head up and walk in the authority that
God has called you to.
I feel that for someone right now.
Let's go.
I feel like you've had your head down shaking timid for too long, like your teachers or a doctor
or your parents have told you lies and have planted things in your mind.
And it's not true.
All right.
I need to talk about my friend Carolina's cat for a second because this animal has more
sass most humans.

It's to give you an identity.
I say that about a lot.
I'm like, his whole point.
My pastor, Darren, said something one time in his service that kind of like, it was like, oh, wow, but also so true.
He goes, if you're struggling with identity, you're a baby Christian.
And that's, like, identity work is so important letting Jesus give you an identity.
But truly, if you're struggling with your identity, that's the basis.
And right, we all struggle with our identity.
And you will continue throughout life.
Things happen.
Moments happen.
Like, it's a continual process.
But truly, if you're, if you are struggling.
with your identity so much to the point where it is holding you back in life, you are a baby
Christian because it's the foundation of what we do. Like, it's the foundation of faith. The first thing
is God speaks identity into you and says it doesn't matter who you are, where you've been,
what your past is, what your parents said about you, you are a daughter or a son, an heir of Christ,
a prince, a priest. Like, it is so imperative.
that you get the identity situation taken care of right away,
that you go to church, you find elders,
you find someone to disciple you,
and say, how do I find my identity in Christ?
And they're literally going to say,
read the word, pray, follow Jesus.
One of my favorite moments in scripture about identity is Peter,
in the gospels where Jesus asked Peter, Simon,
who do you think that I am?
Or who do people say that I am?
And then he says, well, they say you're like John the Baptist, or maybe you're like the prophets.
And Jesus says, but who do you say that I am?
And he says, you are the Messiah, the Christ.
And then Jesus responds and changes his name and says that you are now going to be called Peter, which means the rock.
And on this rock, will my church be built?
So it's a moment of identity being given.
A name is given.
He recognized the name of Jesus being the Messiah of the Christ.
Jesus in turn immediately gives him his name, and it means rock, which is the foundation of the church.
Identity is all about foundation, and there's so many people running around not knowing their identity when it's truly, and this isn't in a way to like identity stuff.
I go through it all the time I'm with you in it, but it is the, every time I'm struggling with my identity, I recognize what am I talking about?
I know my identity. I know it very well, but it gets rocked sometimes.
Things happen.
You go through things.
It's very normal.
But, like, you just have to under, I just don't want anyone walking through life being like,
I just got to find my identity.
Like, you have your identity.
Yeah.
You have it.
There's no finding it.
It's just claiming it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Take an authority.
And even there's, there's, I was telling Ange on the car right here, I'm like, I think
that's something that's been a thorn in my flashes, is those thoughts in my mind, telling me
I'm disqualified, telling me I'm not going.
good enough telling me who am i to preach the gospel who i mean i literally got saved and god goes
okay go go preach the gospel i love him for that i love him for that so much jesus why are you so
funny like that's who he chooses so if you're someone who's like how can i like you think about
our story how i i just i just found jesus and he goes now go yeah and i'll be with you like
he's with you i want to read psalm 139 lord you
examined my heart and you know everything about me. You know the way I sit down or stand up. You know my
thoughts even when I'm far away. I can just hear David saying that's just like scatterbrain. You know
me when I travel and when I rest at home. You know everything I do. You know what I'm going to say
even before I say it, Lord. You go before me and you follow me. You place your hand of blessing on my
head. Such knowledge is too wonderful for me and great to understand. I can never escape from
your spirit. I can never get away from your presence. If I go up to heaven, you are there. If I go
down to the grave, you are there. If I ride the wings of the morning, if I dwell by the farthest
oceans, even there your hand will guide me and your strength will support me. I could ask the
darkness to hide me and the light around me to become night, but even darkness I cannot hide
from you. To you, the night shines as bright as day. Darkness and light are the same to you.
all the delicate inner parts of my body and knit me together in my mother's womb. Thank you for
making me so wonderfully complex. Your workmanship is marvelous. How well I know it. When I got to that
part, when he led me to the scripture this morning, can you imagine? Like I know we've read
this scripture so many times, but think about that. You knit me together in my mother's womb.
you made me so wonderfully complex you knew my shortcomings you knew my little quirks you knew like
he knows everything about you all these things that you say i'm so disqualified and i can't do like
he knows these parts he made you he made you this way so why are we beating ourselves up and saying
that is the very reason why i can't do that yeah let him use it like let him use the the quirks do you know
do you understand I mean I've said this so many times my accent the way I work the way my mind
works is the very thing that God uses yeah why people are like oh my gosh I feel seeing like I you
know and so it's it's unbelievable and so every time you have these moments where you're like
I but I can't because of this but I didn't graduate but he made you this way he knows all of your
little quirk. So do not let that hold you back. He sees you. He wants to use it. And it says in
scripture that I give power to the powerless. Let him use you in this broken, humble state.
Humble yourself before the Lord. What I did this past year was I really needed help with my mind.
I really needed help on not doing negative self-talk to myself. I really needed help with confidence
and feeling good and just not speaking so ill will about myself
because I noticed that I really did that so much.
So one of the things that I really did went through with Jesus
was like, Lord, help me with my insecurity.
Help me speak life and not death.
Help me not be in fear so much.
Help me.
Lord, would you cultivate a boldness in me that I can stand straight up
because I can't?
Like he sees us.
It's not that, oh my gosh, like you're just being disobedient to God, but it's something that
I really humbled myself before him and said, I need help with this because I'm real, I was at a
point where I was really struggling being on the podcast.
I was really struggling on tour for a second.
I felt really, I felt really beat up in my mind.
And so really taking authority of your thoughts, renewing the mind constantly.
That's why the Bible says, renew your mind, the heart.
is deceitful so constantly renewing your own i take authority of those thoughts i am a child of god he is
with me like saturating yourself in the prayer saturating yourself in the psalms this is how you walk in boldness
and authority and i also want to say to something that i deal with is like a way that i feel disqualified a lot is
when I am going through something in my personal life, and then I start to be like, how could I possibly
lead anybody when I feel lost? That's something that I'll experience. My biggest crutch is that
if I don't feel like I'm perfect or my life is perfect, I immediately feel disqualified from
teaching people about Jesus. Because I'm like, well, if I really knew anything, I'd have this
figured out this wouldn't be happening. I wouldn't feel so lost. And so my biggest who am I moment is
like when it's like the spirit of striving and perfectionism and like arrogance truly that like
if I'm perfect and my life is perfect and everything is perfect, then I am qualified to talk about
Jesus and lead people. And so what God has been breaking off of me so much is being like,
girl you're not perfect you're never going to be perfect even when you think you're perfect you're
not perfect yeah that's not why i've called you to this that is not why i've called you to this
and so it's a really humbling thing to be like oh my gosh asking the who am i question is so
actually arrogant because it's not i'll never be perfect so if i ever get to a point where i do think
i'm perfect we have big problems and so that's something that i walk through so much of being like
Who am I to lead anybody if I don't have it, I'll figure it out?
So if anybody's listening and you're like, until I have everything figured out,
I'm not going to start this thing.
I'm not going to put myself out there.
I'm not going to try because I have to figure everything out first.
No, you don't.
Do it anyways.
Don't listen to that lie.
We love you guys so much.
Thank you for being with us today.
This was amazing.
This was amazing.
One more thing I'm going to say is when you are lacking identity,
it is crucial that you have good community around you.
Community has saved our lives when we don't know who we are.
We're having something, you know, we're just like foggy or we're going through something.
We can call each other.
We need each other to be reminded, to speak scripture over us, to speak faith and boldness.
And you need to be around good people that are on fire to help you to lift you up when you are feeling down.
So good.
we love you we love you guys so much thanks for being with us
may the lord bless you and keep you may he make his face shine upon you and be
gracious to you may he turn his face towards you and give you
so much peace shalom shalom we love you guys
