Two Questions for a Glorious Becoming :: Cari Trotter [Ep 40]

Published: Sept. 22, 2014, 3:15 a.m.

Do not be fooled. This world is a spiritual war zone. We can\u2019t give our enemy too much credit, but we also can\u2019t ignore him.

\n

What do we do when the battle heat is on?\xa0

\n

From personal experience, I chose to \u201cphone a friend\u201d (or more like ugly-cry-in-the-church-hallway-at-BSF). Speaking the lies out loud and having a fellow believer speak truth over me was my first line of defense. Next, I asked for prayer from friends and even from my Facebook page community (Are you hanging out over\xa0there?).

\n

Most importantly, I\xa0read God\u2019s Word for myself\xa0and wrapped that belt of Truth around my waist (Eph 6:14).

\n

That\u2019s why today\u2019s podcast topic is so important to me.\xa0I would be doing y\u2019all a huge disservice if you didn\u2019t\xa0learn to read God\u2019s Word and allow His Spirit to speak to you through it.\xa0

\n

Today I\u2019m introducing you to a new friend of mine,\xa0Cari Trotter\xa0who is going to help us read the Bible.

\n

I am\xa0blown away by her outgoing personality and her passion for women to know God through His Word.

\n

She is a gifted Bible teacher, wife to a H.S. Football coach and mom to 3 little ones. Beyond\xa0all that?\xa0She is a beautiful daughter of the Creator of the universe.

\n

We all have the potential to walk towards our \u2018legacy as a royal heir\u2019\u2013the glorious becoming.\xa0It starts, like Cari says, \u2018by sticking\xa0your nose in His Word and discovering real answers to the questions you are asking.\u2019

\n

I truly pray after you hear this interview you will pick up your Bible, read a section (even one verse) and ask yourself the two questions Cari shares in today\u2019s episode. That\xa0through the wisdom God provides and personal revelation, you will begin your glorious transformation.\xa0

\n

What we chat about:

\n
  • We just \xa0jump right in . . .how labeling\xa0an area we want to work for God, gets a target on our back, yet we can walk inside grace in the hard stuff.
  • Be still & know God. . .what to do in the heat of spiritual battle
  • Cari\u2019s family. . .including her HS Football coach hubby.
  • Our journey is not about a perfect walk, but one of faith.

  • Where a woman can start studying God\u2019s Word and how to make it real for herself.
  • Word becomes flesh when we see & know our identity in Christ.
  • A story of leading a Bible study in prison\u2013one gal\u2019s realization that she was created on purpose by the God of the universe.
  • The two questions to ask after you read 10-15 verses\u2013\u201cWhat questions am I asking?\u201d and \u201cWhat am I praying?\u201d
  • Ask God to give you the wisdom for the revelation of His Word.
  • Having a time & a space to spend with God, not in a legalistic way, but in a \u201cneed this or I fall\u201d way.
  • The difference of a day with at least 5 minutes in His Word. One verse. One prayer and His Holy Spirit.
  • How a\xa0verse can transform when you read it one day to the next, providing just what you need to hear.
  • Memorizing Scripture highlights certain phrases.

\n

God thinks it\u2019s about time to reevaluate who you really are. It\u2019s time to heal that broken heart and mend that torn spirit. It\u2019s time to open the eyes of your heart to see what the Father, the King, really sees. What He sees is the royalty of a princess becoming all glorious within.

\n

\xa0The King\u2019s daughter is all glorious within!\xa0(Psalm 45:13)

\n
  • Ephesians 1:17\u2013\u201cI keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better.\u201d
