   How To Hear From God

   SUMMARY In today's episode, Kaelin shares her specific process of talking to God that allows her to hear directly from Him. These simple steps allow her to gain clarity, wisdom, and God's perspective when it comes to her prayer requests. Offering a harmonious blend of practical steps intertwined with scriptural wisdom, listeners are inspired to engage in prayer through the pillars of adoration, confession, thanksgiving, and inquiry. By embracing this method, we open the door to a heartfelt dialogue with God, enabling us to receive direct insights on our prayers and concerns. ACTS PRAYER PROCESS (From Bob Fraser’s ACTS Scriptures Devotional Prayer Guide) ADORATION: Adoration is simply magnifying God (Ps. 34). And when we magnify God, everything else in our life, our needs, our emotions, and our desires, are de-magnified in comparison. CONFESSION & PROCLAMATION: Confession is where we repent for anything we need to, and consecrate ourselves freshly to God Proclamation is the place where we fight for nature of God in our souls. Wherever God is challenging you to change He is also giving you grace to change; and in these areas we need to partner with what God is doing in our lives through proclaiming the truths He is speaking to our hearts. THANKSGIVING & INQUIRY: Give God your personal thanksgiving, for who He has been to you personally, how He has cared for you and shown His love to you personally. During inquiry, begin to ask God the questions on your heart, and write down what you feel is His response SUPPLICATION: Supplication is simply asking God from a personal perspective. Too often we come to God as beggars. But we are not beggars; we are greatly loved sons and daughters. We must ask from this foundation, the foundation of a personal, loving relationship.

   Overcoming The Comparison Trap

   SUMMARY Kaelin discusses the commonly encountered, yet often overlooked problem of comparison. Living in an age dominated by social media, it's become all too easy to find ourselves caught in a constant cycle of comparing our lives, bodies, children, success, and achievements with others. Our obsession with curated feeds on social media, while seemingly innocent, often fosters a breeding ground for feelings of inadequacy, comparison, and envy. These negative emotions rob us of our joy and leave us in a perpetual state of dissatisfaction, casting a shadow over our happiness. But here's the truth: The grass isn't always greener on the other side. It's time to confront this comparison trap and overcome it. Taking inspiration from Proverbs 14:30, "A heart at peace gives life to the body, but envy rots the bones," we will discuss how to find peace within ourselves and bring life back into our bodies, warding off the destructive effects of envy. Let's embark on this journey together to reclaim our joy, restore our peace, and truly appreciate the unique and beautiful lives we each lead.

   Battling the Demonic & Breaking Chains: My Deliverance Story

   SUMMARY Kaelin opens up about the dark presences that tormented her for decades... & how she learned to take authority over them to stop it. This is an episode for anyone who's ever felt the prickling of unseen fear or watched their children grapple with invisible terrors in the night. It's an affirmation that these feelings are real but more importantly, that we have the power to defeat them. It's a true testament to the scripture - "The one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world." (1 John 4:4). This isn't a story of darkness, it's a profound call to arms. As believers, we hold a divine authority that can overcome the enemy at a moment's notice. Kaelin challenges us to push back against the enemy's attempts to sow discord, cause sickness, and make us fearful. The episode emphasizes the importance of staying spiritually armed and vigilant, ready to fight back and claim victory. It's a stark reminder that our struggles may not be against flesh and blood, but against spiritual forces of evil.

   Silencing Your Inner Critic

   SUMMARY In the episode, I walk about the damaging impact of self-deprecating thoughts and how they fuel body image issues and sow seeds of self-doubt. I share the words of Philippians 4:8 as a guiding principle to focus on the true, noble, right, pure, lovely, and admirable aspects about ourselves, rather than dwelling on perceived imperfections. This episode is a must-listen for anyone seeking to transform their self-perception and cultivate a new relationship with themselves & their body.

   Know Your WORTH & Reclaim Your TRUE Value

   SUMMARY In this deeply empowering episode, we dive headfirst into the concept of self-worth and challenge the societal norms that often attach value to physical appearance or achievements. We open up a much-needed conversation about recognizing that our worth is intrinsic and not determined by our body size, physical appearance, or the accolades we've garnered. This is a refreshing call to detach self-worth from these external factors, reminding ladies that true worth is far beyond what can be measured or seen. This episode is a resounding affirmation that every woman is valuable, irrespective of what the mirror, scale, or society says, urging listeners to reconnect with and recognize their God-Given worth.
