Pruning removes what is no longer needed so healthy growth can continue. Uprooting removes the entire root system. One preserves life.

Storms do not uproot every tree. In many cases, storms simply reveal the condition of the roots that were already there.

Are we remaining rooted and established in Christ? Are we continuing to draw strength from His Word? Are we staying connected to the One who sustains us through every season?<br /><br />The warning about being uprooted is not meant to create fear. Rather, it serves as a loving reminder of the importance of abiding in Christ. God desires that we be rooted, established, strengthened, and fruitful.

Yet when we follow the story of Abraham, we discover something different. The testimony of Abraham's blessing did not come from Abraham's own mouth. It came from someone who had walked closely enough to witness God's faithfulness firsthand.<br /><br />In Genesis 24, Abraham's servant, Eliezer, arrives at the home of Rebekah's family while carrying out an important assignment. As he explains who he is and why he has come, he remarkably describes Abraham: "The LORD has blessed my master greatly, and he has become great..." (Genesis 24:35)<br /><br />Those words reveal something profound. Abraham did not need to announce his own greatness. The evidence of God's blessing was visible enough that others could see it and testify about it.<br /><br />In this episode, we reflect on what it means to live a life marked by God's faithfulness. We explore how the promises spoken to Abraham in Genesis 12 and Genesis 17 eventually became visible realities.<br /><br />We consider the difference between self-promotion and the kind of blessing that quietly speaks for itself. As we follow this thread, we discover that fruitfulness is often much broader than we imagine. Scripture reveals God's blessing extending into every area of Abraham's life. His household, resources, influence, responsibilities, and relationships all bore witness to the faithfulness of God.<br /><br />This devotional also invites us to consider an important question:<br /><br />What kind of testimony is our life leaving behind?<br /><br />If someone who knew us well were asked to describe the work of God in our lives, what would they say?<br /><br />Would they be able to point to moments of faithfulness, growth, perseverance, kindness, wisdom, or trust in God?<br /><br />One of the beautiful truths found in Abraham's story is that God's promises often begin long before they can be seen. God declared Abraham fruitful before the fulfillment was visible. He established a covenant before generations had been born. He spoke promises into existence long before others could witness their outcome.<br /><br />Yet eventually, the fruit appeared.<br /><br />Eventually, others could see the evidence.<br /><br />Eventually, someone could stand and say: "The LORD has blessed my master greatly."<br /><br />Perhaps you are currently in a season where God's work feels hidden. Perhaps you are waiting for promises to unfold, prayers to be answered, or fruit to become visible. If so, this reflection serves as a gentle reminder that God is still working, even when the process remains unseen. The blessing of God often begins in hidden places before it becomes visible to others.<br /><br />Join us as we explore Abraham's story, the testimony of Eliezer, and the encouragement found in knowing that God's faithfulness leaves a witness.<br /><br /><b>Key Scriptures for Meditation</b><br /><ul><li>Genesis 12:2–3</li><li>Genesis 17:6–7</li><li>Genesis 24:34–35</li><li>Leviticus 26:9</li><li>Hebrews 13:20</li></ul><br /><br />Become a supporter of this podcast: <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/i-am-the-artisan-s-pen--6739385/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss">https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/i-am-the-artisan-s-pen--6739385/support</a>.<br /><br />If this message blessed you, please consider liking, sharing, and subscribing so that more people can encounter the Word of God.<br /><br />If you feel led to support the continued growth of this ministry, you may sow a seed to help us continue producing Bible teachings, devotionals, and spiritual encouragement for people around the world.<br /><br />Support the ministry here:<br />Venmo: @TheArtisansPEN<br />Cash App: $JodiLynnSB<br />Or you can buy me a coffee or tea at Ko-fi.com/TheArtisansPEN<br /><br />Thank you for being part of this growing community of faith.<br /><br />For more, please visit our websites:<br />TheArtisansPEN.com and/or TheArtisansPEN.org<br /><br />Follow us on YouTube @TheArtisansPEN]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">https://api.spreaker.com/episode/72345327</guid><pubDate>Thu, 04 Jun 2026 17:40:02 +0000</pubDate><enclosure url="https://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/api.spreaker.com/download/episode/72345327/the_blessing_others_can_see_1.mp3" length="5591259" type="audio/mpeg"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/8ad421c6-6577-4a4b-9e54-9be66038add7/8ad421c6-6577-4a4b-9e54-9be66038add7.srt" type="application/x-subrip" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/8ad421c6-6577-4a4b-9e54-9be66038add7/8ad421c6-6577-4a4b-9e54-9be66038add7.txt" type="text/plain" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/8ad421c6-6577-4a4b-9e54-9be66038add7/8ad421c6-6577-4a4b-9e54-9be66038add7.vtt" type="text/vtt" language="en"/><itunes:author>Jodi Lynn Serino-Barbour</itunes:author><itunes:subtitle>What does it mean for God to make someone's name great?

Yet when we follow the story of Abraham, we discover something different. The testimony of Abraham's blessing did not come from Abraham's own mouth. It came from someone who had walked closely enough to witness God's faithfulness firsthand.<br /><br />In Genesis 24, Abraham's servant, Eliezer, arrives at the home of Rebekah's family while carrying out an important assignment. As he explains who he is and why he has come, he remarkably describes Abraham: "The LORD has blessed my master greatly, and he has become great..." (Genesis 24:35)<br /><br />Those words reveal something profound. Abraham did not need to announce his own greatness. The evidence of God's blessing was visible enough that others could see it and testify about it.<br /><br />In this episode, we reflect on what it means to live a life marked by God's faithfulness. We explore how the promises spoken to Abraham in Genesis 12 and Genesis 17 eventually became visible realities.<br /><br />We consider the difference between self-promotion and the kind of blessing that quietly speaks for itself. As we follow this thread, we discover that fruitfulness is often much broader than we imagine. Scripture reveals God's blessing extending into every area of Abraham's life. His household, resources, influence, responsibilities, and relationships all bore witness to the faithfulness of God.<br /><br />This devotional also invites us to consider an important question:<br /><br />What kind of testimony is our life leaving behind?<br /><br />If someone who knew us well were asked to describe the work of God in our lives, what would they say?<br /><br />Would they be able to point to moments of faithfulness, growth, perseverance, kindness, wisdom, or trust in God?<br /><br />One of the beautiful truths found in Abraham's story is that God's promises often begin long before they can be seen. God declared Abraham fruitful before the fulfillment was visible. He established a covenant before generations had been born. He spoke promises into existence long before others could witness their outcome.<br /><br />Yet eventually, the fruit appeared.<br /><br />Eventually, others could see the evidence.<br /><br />Eventually, someone could stand and say: "The LORD has blessed my master greatly."<br /><br />Perhaps you are currently in a season where God's work feels hidden. Perhaps you are waiting for promises to unfold, prayers to be answered, or fruit to become visible. If so, this reflection serves as a gentle reminder that God is still working, even when the process remains unseen. The blessing of God often begins in hidden places before it becomes visible to others.<br /><br />Join us as we explore Abraham's story, the testimony of Eliezer, and the encouragement found in knowing that God's faithfulness leaves a witness.<br /><br /><b>Key Scriptures for Meditation</b><br /><ul><li>Genesis 12:2–3</li><li>Genesis 17:6–7</li><li>Genesis 24:34–35</li><li>Leviticus 26:9</li><li>Hebrews 13:20</li></ul><br /><br />Become a supporter of this podcast: <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/i-am-the-artisan-s-pen--6739385/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss">https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/i-am-the-artisan-s-pen--6739385/support</a>.<br /><br />If this message blessed you, please consider liking, sharing, and subscribing so that more people can encounter the Word of God.<br /><br />If you feel led to support the continued growth of this ministry, you may sow a seed to help us continue producing Bible teachings, devotionals, and spiritual encouragement for people around the world.<br /><br />Support the ministry here:<br />Venmo: @TheArtisansPEN<br />Cash App: $JodiLynnSB<br />Or you can buy me a coffee or tea at Ko-fi.com/TheArtisansPEN<br /><br />Thank you for being part of this growing community of faith.<br /><br />For more,...]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>350</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>abraham,christiandevotional,fruitfulness,godsfaithfulness,theblessingotherscansee</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/49653162df0be0cd317d8426ff245d15.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>Rooted Before Fruit Appears</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/rooted-before-fruit-appears--72335561</link><description><![CDATA[In this episode, we take a closer look at one of the most beautiful promises found in Leviticus 26:9:<br /><br /> "For I will look on you favorably and make you fruitful, multiply you and confirm My covenant with you." (NKJV)<br /><br /> At first glance, fruitfulness can seem like a simple concept. Many people immediately think of children, growth, or increase. Yet as we begin following the thread of Scripture, a much larger picture begins to emerge.<br /><br /> God called Abraham fruitful long before Abraham could see the fulfillment of the promise. Nations had not yet arisen. Kings had not yet come from him. The descendants were not yet as numerous as the stars of heaven. Still, God spoke as though the promise already existed.<br /><br />What do we do when God speaks before we can see?<br /><br />What happens when the promise is real, but the evidence has not yet appeared?<br /><br />This devotional reflection explores the often-overlooked truth that God frequently works beneath the surface long before visible fruit arrives.<br /><br />Just as a healthy tree develops roots before producing a harvest, God often establishes, strengthens, and prepares us in hidden places before the results become visible.<br /><br />As we trace Abraham's story, we discover that biblical fruitfulness extends beyond a single area of life. Scripture reveals a blessing that touched every part of Abraham's journey.<br /><br />The Lord's faithfulness was evident not only in descendants, but in provision, stewardship, influence, and the unfolding of God's covenant promises across generations.<br /><br />This episode is especially for those who find themselves in a waiting season.<br />Perhaps you have been praying.<br />Perhaps you have been planting seeds.<br />Perhaps you have been faithfully showing up day after day without seeing the results you hoped for. If so, this reflection serves as a gentle reminder that the absence of visible fruit does not mean the absence of God's activity.<br /><br />Sometimes roots are still growing. <br />Sometimes foundations are still being established.<br />Sometimes God is preparing tomorrow's harvest in places that cannot yet be seen.<br /><br />Join us as we meditate on God's faithfulness, His promises, and the encouragement found in knowing that He often declares fruitfulness before the fruit appears.<br /><br />May this reflection encourage you to trust the process, remain rooted in His Word, and remember that the same God who spoke the promise is still at work.

Drawing from Colossians 2:6, we consider the simple yet powerful invitation found in Scripture: “As you have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him.”<br /><br />Receiving from God is not the end of the journey—it is the beginning. Just as we receive bread for nourishment and then carry it with us, we are called to receive Christ, the Bread of Life, and continue walking with what He has placed within us.<br /><br />Together, we reflect on what it means to remain faithful in everyday life, to keep trusting during uncertain seasons, and to continue walking even when the path feels slow or difficult. Sometimes the greatest evidence of spiritual growth is not found in dramatic moments but in the quiet decision to keep taking the next step with God.<br /><br />If you have ever found yourself wondering what comes after receiving, this devotional offers a gentle reminder that God walks with us through every season.

I invite you to return again for future reflections as we continue drawing from these deeper wells together.<br /><br /> #KeepingWhatWeLove #ABASilenceMinistries #ChristianPodcast #DevotionalPodcast #ScriptureMeditation #John1423 #RootedInLove #FaithJourney #ChristianEncouragement #SpiritualGrowth<br /><br />Become a supporter of this podcast: <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/i-am-the-artisan-s-pen--6739385/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss">https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/i-am-the-artisan-s-pen--6739385/support</a>.<br /><br />If this message blessed you, please consider liking, sharing, and subscribing so that more people can encounter the Word of God.<br /><br />If you feel led to support the continued growth of this ministry, you may sow a seed to help us continue producing Bible teachings, devotionals, and spiritual encouragement for people around the world.<br /><br />Support the ministry here:<br />Venmo: @TheArtisansPEN<br />Cash App: $JodiLynnSB<br />Or you can buy me a coffee or tea at Ko-fi.com/TheArtisansPEN<br /><br />Thank you for being part of this growing community of faith.<br /><br />For more, please visit our websites:<br />TheArtisansPEN.com and/or TheArtisansPEN.org<br /><br />Follow us on YouTube @TheArtisansPEN]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>472</itunes:duration><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/7433aec0ac3dd7af073113d0daef6330.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>Planted for More Than Survival</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/planted-for-more-than-survival--72178766</link><description><![CDATA[Step into a gentle moment of scripture, reflection, and encouragement as we explore what it means to be planted, rooted, and established by God.<br /><br /> Beginning in Leviticus 26:9 and journeying through scriptures that reveal God’s heart toward His people, this devotional reflection reminds us that not every cutting season is uprooting and that the Father plants with purpose.

Through His Spirit, He continues to dwell with those who seek Him.<br /><br />These Snack Time Devotionals are short reflections designed to nourish your spirit with the Word of God throughout your day.<br /><br />Whether you are beginning your morning, taking a quiet pause during the day, or ending your evening with Scripture, these spiritual snacks provide a brief but meaningful opportunity to meditate on God’s Word.<br /><br />Scripture Reference:<br />Exodus 25:8<br /><br />Part of the Snack Time Devotionals Series<br /><br />#Exodus25<br />#Immanuel<br />#GodWithUs<br />#ChristianDevotional<br />#BibleStudy<br />#WordOfGod<br />#DailyDevotional<br />#ChristianEncouragement<br />#ScriptureMeditation<br />#SnackTimeDevotional<br /><br />Become a supporter of this podcast: <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/i-am-the-artisan-s-pen--6739385/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss">https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/i-am-the-artisan-s-pen--6739385/support</a>.<br /><br />If this message blessed you, please consider liking, sharing, and subscribing so that more people can encounter the Word of God.<br /><br />If you feel led to support the continued growth of this ministry, you may sow a seed to help us continue producing Bible teachings, devotionals, and spiritual encouragement for people around the world.<br /><br />Support the ministry here:<br />Venmo: @TheArtisansPEN<br />Cash App: $JodiLynnSB<br />Or you can buy me a coffee or tea at Ko-fi.com/TheArtisansPEN<br /><br />Thank you for being part of this growing community of faith.<br /><br />For more, please visit our websites:<br />TheArtisansPEN.com and/or TheArtisansPEN.org<br /><br />Follow us on YouTube @TheArtisansPEN]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>1544</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>biblereflection,biblestudyexodus,christiandevotional,christianencouragement,dailydevotional,exodus25:8meaning,goddwellingamonghispeople,immanuelgodwithus,tabernaclemeaninginthebible,wordofgodteaching</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/fa8feb2b67e7a31b2b75defea5e8f528.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>Psalm 29 | The Powerful Voice of God | Snack Time Devotional</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/psalm-29-the-powerful-voice-of-god-snack-time-devotional--70613871</link><description><![CDATA[Psalm 29 reminds us of the overwhelming power, majesty, and authority of the voice of the Lord.<br /><br />In this short Bible devotional from the Snack Time Collection, we pause for a moment of spiritual nourishment as we reflect on how the voice of God moves over the waters, shakes the wilderness, and reveals His glory.<br /><br />Whether you are beginning your day, taking a mid-day pause, or ending your evening in reflection, this short devotional is designed to give you a quick but powerful portion of God's Word.<br /><br />Psalm 29 calls us to recognize that the voice of the Lord is not weak or distant—it is powerful, majestic, and able to move mountains in our lives today.<br /><br />This video is part of the Snack Time Collection, a series of short Bible reflections created to give you a moment of spiritual encouragement and nourishment throughout your day.

(Laughing)<br />But I also know that Father would not send me in this direction if HE didn't think I could do this.<br /><br />I promise you I didn't see this coming either.<br />I am a writer.<br />But as I recouperate and heal from this surgery that I had I needed to find new ways to pour out all that is being poured into me.<br /><br />And how about that.<br />This takes me to Isaiah 43:19<br /><br />"See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the desert and streams in the wasteland."<br /><br />OMG...<br />Here is yet another stream.<br /><br />Wow.<br />Okay Lord Jesus, my King. Have your way.

I Got Some Good News To Share</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/i-m-excited-i-got-some-good-news-to-share--67846647</link><description><![CDATA[I don't ever want to take for granted that our Heavenly Father approved for me to be awakened today. He has a purpose for me in this day. (I wonder what it is. I wonder who I am to receive from today. I wonder who I am to give to today. I wonder what I will receive. I wonder what I am to give.)<br /><br />All I know is that I cannot treat today as just another day. All I know is that I am not to do what I normally do, or what society expects me to do in this day. Our Heavenly Father approved for me to be awakened today. I was awakened for HIS purposed. He has a will for me for today - a plan for me and whatever it is it is for my good.<br /><br />I'm so excited. I must not forget that someone did not hear their name called on today. Someone did not wake up. Someone will not be able to participate in this day - for the good or the bad.<br /><br />I say or the bad because I do realize that iron sharpens iron. So some have a hard job to do. Some have the responsibility of bringing themselves and others to their knees.<br /><br />Why themselves and others?<br /><br />Because God's Word is a two edged sword. So usually those with the hard assignments are those who reject the KING Jesus Christ as their Savior and Redeemer.<br /><br />By not accepting Jesus as Lord over their lives in gratitude for His making us all debt free, one still lives in such a way that is shaped in iniquity. And so the path they are one causes them to have to be sharpened by iron - whether they are the sharpener or the one being sharpened. This too is necessary. I get it.

(I wonder what it is. I wonder who I am to receive from today. I wonder who I am to give to today. I wonder what I will receive. I wonder what I am to give.)<br /><br />All I know is that I cannot treat today as just another day. All I know is that I am not to do what I normally do, or what society expects me to do in this day. Our Heavenly Father approved for me to be awakened today. I was awakened for HIS purposed. He has a will for me for today - a plan for me and whatever it is it is for my good.<br /><br />I'm so excited. I must not forget that someone did not hear their name called on today. Someone did not wake up. Someone will not be able to participate in this day - for the good or the bad.<br /><br />I say or the bad because I do realize that iron sharpens iron. So some have a hard job to do. Some have the responsibility of bringing themselves and others to their knees.<br /><br />Why themselves and others?<br /><br />Because God's Word is a two edged sword. So usually those with the hard assignments are those who reject the KING Jesus Christ as their Savior and Redeemer.<br /><br />By not accepting Jesus as Lord over their lives in gratitude for His making us all debt free, one still lives in such a way that is shaped in iniquity. And so the path they are one causes them to have to be sharpened by iron - whether they are the sharpener or the one being sharpened. This too is necessary. I get it. Someone has to do the hard work.<br /><br />As for me, I desire to be a ground that is malleable - a ground that is ready for planting, ready to receive good seed, and ready to grow. I want to be a ground that can withstand the forces of nature and the attack of the bugs ( lol ) so that I can grow and produce good fruit.<br /><br />So yes I am excited about today.<br /><br />I am grateful that I was chosen to wake up today.<br /><br />I present myself, a living sacrifice, ready to do God's will on this day.<br /><br />Good morning.

Rain will come in torrents, and I will send hailstones hurtling down, and violent winds will burst forth . . . I will tear down the wall you have covered with whitewash and will level it to the ground so that its foundation will be laid bare. When it falls, you will be destroyed in it; and you will know that I am the LORD. So I will spend my wrath against the wall and against those who covered it with whitewash. I will say to you, "The wall is gone and so are those who whitewashed it, . . ." '' "<br /><br />Apostle Paul said to the high priest Ananias who sinned against God by hindering the gospel, "You whitewashed wall!"<br /><br />Ac 23:1-3 Paul looked straight at the Sanhedrin and said, "My brothers, I have fulfilled my duty to God in all good conscience to this day." At this the high priest Ananias ordered those standing near Paul to strike him on the mouth. Then Paul said to him, "God will strike you, you whitewashed wall! . . ."<br /><br />Jesus compares the hypocritical teachers of the law and Pharisees to whitewashed tombs.<br /><br />Mt 23:27-28 "Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You are like whitewashed tombs, which look beautiful on the outside but on the inside are full of dead men''s bones and everything unclean. In the same way, on the outside you appear to people as righteous but on the inside you are full of hypocrisy and wickedness."<br /><br />False prophets make a habit of doing detestable things, deceive people and shut the kingdom of heaven in their faces. They are like whitewashed tombs, which look clean and beautiful on the outside but on the inside are full of everything unclean. So, they can never escape the punishment of hell.<br /><br />Mt 23:14-15 "Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You shut the kingdom of heaven in men''s faces. You yourselves do not enter, nor will you let those enter who are trying to. Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You travel over land and sea to win a single convert, and when he becomes one, you make him twice as much a son of hell as you are."<br /><br />Mt 23:33 "You snakes! You brood of vipers! How will you escape being condemned to hell?"<br /><br />Thus, the Bible likens false prophets and their denominations to whitewashed tombs; for even though a church is very big and gorgeous on the outward and it has long history and tradition, if it has no truth, it can never be a place of salvation.<br /><br />Today, there are so many churches led by false prophets like whitewashed tombs in the world; they shut off the kingdom of heaven from people by deceiving them with falsehood and lawlessness while calling God, "Lord, Lord" (Mt 7:21- 23). The Bible refers to the false churches as spiritual Babylon. God wants His people to quickly come out of Babylon—a home for demons—which is full of wickedness and lawlessness, before the Judgment Day comes, so that they will not be condemned with them.<br /><br />Rev 18:2-5 With a mighty voice he shouted: "Fallen! Fallen is Babylon the Great! She has become a home for demons and a haunt for every evil spirit, a haunt for every unclean and detestable bird. For all the nations have drunk the maddening wine of her adulteries. The kings of the earth committed adultery with her, and the merchants of the earth grew rich from her excessive luxuries." Then I heard another voice from heaven say: "Come out of her, my people, so that you will not share in her sins, so that you will not receive any of her plagues; for her sins are piled up to heaven, and God has remembered her crimes."<br /><br />Now is the time to lead our heavenly brothers and sisters, who are dying in spiritual Babylon like a whitewashed tomb, into the refuge of salvation as quickly as possible.<br /><br />EndQuote.<br /><br />Become a supporter of this podcast: <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/i-am-the-artisan-s-pen--6739385/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss">https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/i-am-the-artisan-s-pen--6739385/support</a>.<br /><br />If this message blessed you, please consider liking, sharing, and subscribing so that more people can encounter the Word of God.<br /><br />If you feel led to support the continued growth of this ministry, you may sow a seed to help us continue producing Bible teachings, devotionals, and spiritual encouragement for people around the world.<br /><br />Support the ministry here:<br />Venmo: @TheArtisansPEN<br />Cash App: $JodiLynnSB<br />Or you can buy me a coffee or tea at Ko-fi.com/TheArtisansPEN<br /><br />Thank you for being part of this growing community of faith.<br /><br />For more, please visit our websites:<br />TheArtisansPEN.com and/or TheArtisansPEN.org<br /><br />Follow us on YouTube @TheArtisansPEN]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">https://api.spreaker.com/episode/67846595</guid><pubDate>Wed, 24 Sep 2025 17:35:07 +0000</pubDate><enclosure url="https://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/api.spreaker.com/download/episode/67846595/matthew_23_27_28_the_exposure_of_whitewashed_graves_today.mp3" length="8046131" type="audio/mpeg"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/54b127e4-b780-40c6-8d7b-3602e83e8b94/54b127e4-b780-40c6-8d7b-3602e83e8b94.srt" type="application/x-subrip" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/54b127e4-b780-40c6-8d7b-3602e83e8b94/54b127e4-b780-40c6-8d7b-3602e83e8b94.txt" type="text/plain" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/54b127e4-b780-40c6-8d7b-3602e83e8b94/54b127e4-b780-40c6-8d7b-3602e83e8b94.vtt" type="text/vtt" language="en"/><itunes:author>Jodi Lynn Serino-Barbour</itunes:author><itunes:subtitle>To whitewash is a metaphor meaning "to gloss over or cover up vices, crimes or scandals or to exonerate by means of a perfunctory investigation or through biased presentation of data".

(See verse 15-16.)<br /><br />Its a tiny book, being only one chapter, and to find it turn to Hebrews. It's located right before Hebrews.<br /><br />Further references:<br /><br />About letting go - 1 Corinthians 5:1-5<br /><br />About our attitude when having to let someone go - the story Jesus told of the prodigal son and the father's attitude toward this son prayerfully watching for him, and upon seeing him in the distance returning, he ran to the son.<br /><br />About receiving again - Philemon 1:15, 16<br /><br />What a wonderful lesson on relationships. But Father sent me back there this morning because there was another nugget tucked away in this book. Lol. Caught me off guard when I saw it. Lol <br /><br />Father has double confirmed me first with Isaiah 52 and now with Philemon 1. <br /><br />Glory be to GOD. <br /><br />The Artisans P.E.N.<br /><br />#theartisanspen <br />#JodiLynnSB<br />#abasilenceministries<br />#restoration <br />#confirmation <br />#nuggetsofwisdom<br /><br />Become a supporter of this podcast: <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/i-am-the-artisan-s-pen--6739385/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss">https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/i-am-the-artisan-s-pen--6739385/support</a>.<br /><br />If this message blessed you, please consider liking, sharing, and subscribing so that more people can encounter the Word of God.<br /><br />If you feel led to support the continued growth of this ministry, you may sow a seed to help us continue producing Bible teachings, devotionals, and spiritual encouragement for people around the world.<br /><br />Support the ministry here:<br />Venmo: @TheArtisansPEN<br />Cash App: $JodiLynnSB<br />Or you can buy me a coffee or tea at Ko-fi.com/TheArtisansPEN<br /><br />Thank you for being part of this growing community of faith.<br /><br />For more, please visit our websites:<br />TheArtisansPEN.com and/or TheArtisansPEN.org<br /><br />Follow us on YouTube @TheArtisansPEN]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>661</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>biblestudy,confirmation,encouragement,nuggetsofwisdom,restoration,studythebiblewithme,theartisanspen,wordofgod</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/f32a8cd380dc756fa1916bb4584cf646.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>Shine!

It is prayed. It is song. But do we really understand what it is that we are praying when we say this prayer? Do we understand what we are asking of God?<br /><br />Have we ever taken a second and considered it Beyond just reading it, quoting it, or repeating it after others as a call and response?<br /><br />This is a very powerful prayer and one that we need to take the moment to ponder deeply in our hearts. Selah<br /><br />Our Father...<br />[ We need to recognize that GOD is our FATHER. Our parent. He knows us intimately. He knows the number of hairs on our heads. He awakens us every morning. He provides for our needs and wants to give us some wants also. He cares for us, provides, protects, corrects, and disciplines us like a parent (Hebrews 12:5-12) ]<br /><br />Our Father in heaven...<br />[ We need to not forget that Our Father is Sovereign. He is Omnipotent, Omniscient, Omnipresent. Nothing is hidden from him. Everything is naked and openly exposed before Him. Therefore we need to humble ourselves before Him. We need to respect Him, and when we approach Him there should be reverent fear because of who He is. ]<br /><br />Our Father in heaven, Hallowed be Your name...<br />[Hallowed means holy, clean, cleansed from any wrong that might be imputed. When we say that His name is hallowed, we are telling God that He was right all along and we were wrong. We are telling God that we should have listened to Him from the very beginning. We are saying to God that HE is free from the guilt of all that Satan and man have charged him of.<br /><br />Satan said to Eve that God lied about her and Adam dying if they ate from the tree. That was the first great lie told on our Father.<br /><br />The next lie Satan told was when he insinuated that God is buying our love by blessing us and covering over us. See Job chapters 1 and 2.]<br /><br />Our Father in Heaven, HALLOWED be Your Name.<br /><br />Your Kingdom come...<br />[God's Kingdom is a government that is going to put an end to the governments of this world. (See Daniel 2:44) We need God's Kingdom to come and fix this world and the earth that we have destroyed with our disobedience. Man has tried. There have been different regimes, different rulers, different types of government and ultimately man has made things worse. We need God's Kingdom because man's government is not working. ]<br /><br />Your Kingdom come. Your will be done...<br />[We like to fuss about how we have "free will", yet the truth of the matter is that in our free will we have been messing things up. We have been selfish in how we have operated. We have been allowed free will to show us that we actually need God and that we cannot do things of our own strength and understanding. We need help. We need God's Will to be done. Not God's permissive will, but God's perfect will. ]<br /><br />Your Kingdom come. Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven...<br />[ God's will is already being done in heaven. The enemy of our Lord has been cast out of heaven. Heaven has been cleansed of the antagonist. We need for the earth to be cleansed of all wickedness too. ]<br /><br />Give us this day our daily bread...<br />[ Jesus is the Word of God. Jesus is the bread from heaven. Whenever we call upon the name of Jesus we are asking for our daily bread we are asking for a daily word. We are told that He sent His Word and healed us, and delivered us from our destructions. Notice that the prayer says "daily". We are to read in God's Word day and night. We are to feed on the Word of God daily. We ask God to provide this to us and He did, but are we availing ourselves of this bread. Are we eating the bread that God has given to us? Are we hearing it, listening to it, reading it? ]<br /><br />Forgive us our debts...<br />[We have inherited sin. Therefore we have to deal with transgressions (acts of sin) that we commit unknowingly; and iniquities (when we know how to do what is right but we do wrong). We all have this battle. ]<br /><br />Forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors...<br />[ There is no one sin greater than the other. The forgiveness we desire to receive is dependent upon the forgiveness we give to others. ]<br /><br />and Do not lead us into temptation...<br />[ Revelation 2:10; James 1:2-4; Zechariah 13:9; and the better-known verse is Matthew 4:1 where the Spirit led Jesus in the wilderness to be tempted by Satan. Jesus told us to pray that we do not have to go through that at Luke 22: 40. He warns us ahead of time. Are we listening? ]<br /><br />But deliver us from the evil one...<br />[He tells us at James 4:7 how He delivers us. It starts with submission. Again, we must lay down that free will and take upon ourselves God's will.]<br /><br />For Yours is the Kingdom and the power, and the glory forever<br />[The right to rule belongs to our Father in Heaven. It always has. We thought we could do it better. We were wrong. To God belongs the power and the glory. How long? FOREVER.<br /><br />and when we find ourselves in agreement with that which King Jesus taught us to pray, we end by saying.<br /><br />AMEN Amen amen<br /><br />Become a supporter of this podcast: <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/i-am-the-artisan-s-pen--6739385/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss">https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/i-am-the-artisan-s-pen--6739385/support</a>.<br /><br />If this message blessed you, please consider liking, sharing, and subscribing so that more people can encounter the Word of God.<br /><br />If you feel led to support the continued growth of this ministry, you may sow a seed to help us continue producing Bible teachings, devotionals, and spiritual encouragement for people around the world.<br /><br />Support the ministry here:<br />Venmo: @TheArtisansPEN<br />Cash App: $JodiLynnSB<br />Or you can buy me a coffee or tea at Ko-fi.com/TheArtisansPEN<br /><br />Thank you for being part of this growing community of faith.<br /><br />For more, please visit our websites:<br />TheArtisansPEN.com and/or TheArtisansPEN.org<br /><br />Follow us on YouTube @TheArtisansPEN]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">https://api.spreaker.com/episode/67788903</guid><pubDate>Wed, 17 Sep 2025 05:41:13 +0000</pubDate><enclosure url="https://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/api.spreaker.com/download/episode/67788903/understanding_the_model_prayer_taught_by_jesus_christ_matthew_6_9_12.mp3" length="37945259" type="audio/mpeg"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/74716d8d-865d-45d3-85ec-50c5eadf2667/74716d8d-865d-45d3-85ec-50c5eadf2667.srt" type="application/x-subrip" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/74716d8d-865d-45d3-85ec-50c5eadf2667/74716d8d-865d-45d3-85ec-50c5eadf2667.txt" type="text/plain" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/74716d8d-865d-45d3-85ec-50c5eadf2667/74716d8d-865d-45d3-85ec-50c5eadf2667.vtt" type="text/vtt" language="en"/><itunes:author>Jodi Lynn Serino-Barbour</itunes:author><itunes:subtitle>We can quote this verse verbatim.
