Hello everyone and welcome to Pick Up The Phone Podcast with Diamond Denise, a podcast where we answer the call that makes us laugh or cry, but lean on God's strength to keep going.
Episode 8 – Secured, Not Rushed
In Episode 8, Secured, Not Rushed, we are anchored in the book of James as we confront the pressure to compare, hurry, and strive outside of God's timing.
James reminds us that maturity is formed through perseverance, not speed. When we rush the process, we often interrupt the very work God is trying to complete. Being secured in who God has called us to be requires settling our hearts, refusing to measure our journey against someone else's, and resisting the urge to self-sabotage through impatience or fear.
This episode is an invitation to stand confidently in God, trusting that what He establishes does not need to be forced.
We are not shrinking back. We are not settling for fragments. We are going after all God has promised confident, secure, and unwavering in Him.
Stand firm. Stay anchored. Let God finish what He started.
With Joy,
Diamond Denise

About My Father's Business
Episode 7 – About My Father's Business
In Episode 7, About My Father's Business, we shift from fighting to dwell into learning how to remain steadfast, anchored, and unmoved while God works through us.
James 5 reminds us, Remaining is not passive. It is endurance with purpose. It is staying faithful when the outcome isn't immediate and contending when obedience costs something.
Being about the Father's business means choosing separation over conformity. We cannot carry heaven's assignment while living by the world's standards. Remaining requires holiness, patience, and trust, believing that God is working even when progress feels slow and recognition is absent.
This episode calls us to contend without striving, to remain without wavering, and to let our fruit speak louder than our opinions. We don't have to announce what God is doing, transformation, consistency, and obedience will testify for us.
God finishes what He started.
I love you always,
With Joy, Diamond Denise

The Fight to Dwell
Episode 6 – The Fight to Dwell
In Episode 6, The Fight to Dwell, we're confronting a reality we can't ignore: dwelling in God's presence doesn't happen by accident. It takes intentionality. In a world full of noise, busyness, and constant pull, remaining in His presence is a daily fight.
Distractions are not random. Scripture reminds us that the enemy prowls like a roaring lion, seeking to devour, and often his greatest weapon isn't destruction, it's distraction. If he can keep us busy, overwhelmed, or unfocused, he can keep us from abiding.
Dwelling requires awareness and choice. It means recognizing when distractions are pulling our attention away and intentionally returning to God. It's choosing stillness over noise, focus over frenzy, and presence over pressure. It's guarding our hearts and minds so we don't drift from the place where we are most alive, in Him.
This episode challenges you to fight for your time with God, to resist the subtle distractions meant to pull you away, and to remain anchored in His presence no matter what tries to compete for your attention.
It's a fight.
But it's worth it.
I love you always,
With Joy — Diamond Denise
