Autumn Miles Podcast

You must deal with the wounds and abuses of the past before you live securely in the present promises of God.  Use the story of Joshua and the Israelites conquering the enemies in Canaan as inspiration to deal with your own “enemies” that could be lurking in your promised land. Learn how to conquer those giants through prayer and Scripture in today’s podcast.  

Sometimes, we allow our thoughts to boss us around when we should be taking them captive. We need to be aware of our thoughts because wrong thought patterns can ruin our lives.  Ask God if your thoughts reflect what is ACTUALLY going on in your attitude toward yourself and others. Draw correction and redirection from Samson’s story in today’s podcast.  

God can sometimes gets blamed for “bad” or mundane life occurrences when He is actually positioning you to a place of answered prayer.  Joseph does not blame God when his life progresses from betrayal to slavery to imprisonment. He prayed and trusted God through the trials and God elevated Joseph to a place of greater impact; the same can be true for you.  

Today we are PUMPED to welcome back Jess Connolly to the show! We're so excited to jump into her new book 'You Are The Girl For The Job', as we see how she takes us deeper into daring to believe the God who calls you! Her heart behind this book is purely for women who have had to face the question of whether or not, to hide and quit or to move forward believing in God's power.  

Look in your life expectantly. God loves us so much that when we are “straining at the oars” of our life, He comes to help us; however, He may be present as something that doesn’t look like him. Look around your life.  Watch for Jesus. He may look like a “ghost” as he did to the disciples in the boat, but He is there.

In a culture where our lives are built upon a pedestal of keeping busy, we’ve left no room to have a “spiritually vibrant life,” explains John Mark Comer. "Hurry is incompatible with the way of Jesus. The love, joy, and peace that form the nucleus of Jesus’ kingdom are all impossible in a life of speed.” Our guest today shares with us from his timely book, “The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry”. John Mark Comer is a pastor and author from Portland, Oregon who’s life ambition is to "be with Jesus, become like Him, and do what He did.” Listen in today and take a pause from the hurry.

Sometimes our circumstances worsen after we pray big, bold prayers, but don’t get angry and bitter with God. Draw encouragement and inspiration from Joseph’s story that God is not rejecting your prayers and dreams, but repositioning them for the greater. Trust His love and supreme goodness through the process.

Today, we are honored to have Becky Tompson on air with us! We are going to be talking her latest book and journal which are available now!

Elijah persisted in prayer for rain on Mt. Carmel, and the seventh time he prayed a small rain cloud appeared on the horizon.  Look for the “small cloud” answers to your prayers for a financial increases, marriage repairs, or any other matter pressing on your heart today! Don’t despise the “small cloud” answers; know that God is providing for you even in their seeming smallness.

On our show today we have a very special guest, Michelle Cushatt! She is here today telling us all about her newest book, 'Relentless'. In this book, she helps to answer the question, "How do you hold on to faith when faith itself seems lost?" Join us today as we dive into this raw topic. 

If people or opportunities are separating themselves from your life, be encouraged and know this is the pruning of God. Don’t mourn the branch that is gone, but focus on what remains. God will use the remnant for His purpose.

Don’t give up when you are slogging through hard times. Jesus persevered up until and through His death on the cross and because He endured beyond His pain, WE are alive today. God knows the blessings that are coming when we choose to persevere.

God sometimes allows His word to try and test us when our desire to “do” is overcoming His desire to “wait”.  Being still before God is oftentimes more difficult than acting on our own behalf. Find out how to further trust the Lord when He is quiet in the storm in today’s podcast.  

God blesses our effort! Some of us know that in some area of our lives, we could be giving more effort. You know what you need to be doing and you're just not doing it!
