Reflection: Trusting God means releasing control even when the outcome is unclear. Where are you still trying to control instead of surrender? Action: Identify one area today where you will choose trust over anxiety. Prayer: “Lord, I release control and choose to trust You fully today.”

As we move into next week’s Bible study, we won’t be meeting tomorrow as usual. However, I will upload the next chapters for you all to begin reading so we can stay aligned and continue progressing together. At this time, my family is going through what many would consider spiritual warfare, with several challenges and attacks arising. We also have a loved one currently in the hospital, and we are standing in faith and working with God, believing for her to wake up and be restored. I ask that you keep my family in your prayers during this time. I will do my best to remain present and keep the group active. I look forward to connecting with you all again during our live Bible study on May 3rd!

Yesterday’s Bible study was truly powerful. We touched on so many layers—the Word, the life and resurrection of Jesus Christ, the difference between church, Christianity, and true spirituality, and even spiritual warfare. One thing that stood out deeply is this: many churches no longer teach on spiritual warfare, even though it is very real. What many people call “bad luck” or constant hardship is often spiritual in nature. There is an unseen battle taking place daily. Please understand—Christianity is so much deeper than simply reading the Bible or attending church on Sundays. That is only the introduction. A real relationship with God—an intimate relationship—requires intentional time, and that begins with prayer and fasting. Throughout my journey, I have completed multiple fasts—each one led and instructed by God. And every single time, He revealed something different to me. More importantly, He revealed Himself. Everyone’s experience will look different, but the purpose remains the same: - To draw closer to God - To remove distractions - To lift the spiritual veil And when that veil lifts—it changes everything. Fasting is not just a ritual—it is an invitation into intimacy. It is time spent with God as Father and daughter, one-on-one, beyond the surface level. The Bible is God’s Word, yes—but it is also the introduction to who He is, so that when you truly encounter Him, you recognize His voice, His presence, and His authority. And that authority? He has given it to you. This journey has been transformational for me. Looking back, I wish I understood this sooner—but I also recognize that God’s timing is perfect. He knew exactly when He would bring His daughter back to Him. We will be releasing another segment soon in the Skool app—going deeper into: - Spiritual warfare - Fasting and prayer - How to build a closer, more intimate relationship with God We are now approaching Week 10 of our Bible study series, and new teachings will be released periodically.

It’s Easter, what better way to truly honor and celebrate the life and resurrection of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, than by spending time in His Word. We will be hosting a brief Bible study this evening—just a moment to come together, reflect, pray, and pour into the Word—before returning to celebrate with our families.
