THE POTTER'S HAND| Embracing the Journey| Suffering for & with Christ| Discipleship |CHIMDI OHAHUNA

In this thought-provoking new episode of The POTTER'S HAND podcast, join us as we focus on the profound concept of value through the lens of faith and resilience. Beloved, Value is what people place on you, not what people put on you and it is derived from the Finished Work of Christ. This episode explores the intricacies of self-worth, divine purpose, and the spiritual journey through suffering.

Discover how society often tries to undermine our intrinsic worth by trivializing what we have to offer. Our value as children of God is not defined by external opinions but is sourced from our identity in Christ. Prepare to challenge the notion that our worth is up for negotiation and instead embrace the understanding that each hurt and hardship is woven into our greater narrative.

Listeners will discover that every painful experience is not in vain—each one plays a crucial role in shaping our character and mission. The teaching highlights the transformative nature of suffering, emphasizing that if we glean wisdom from our struggles, we emerge stronger and more purposeful. If we overlook these lessons, however, we risk losing sight of our potential.

Revival often strikes in the most unconventional ways. As we reflect on the magnetic power of spiritual gifts, we’ll underline the importance of grounding ourselves in the Word of God for sustained growth and understanding. This episode challenges the prevailing notion of fitting in; instead, we celebrate the beauty of standing out and fulfilling our God-given purpose without succumbing to societal pressures.

Additionally, we’ll confront the realities of misunderstanding that arise when either a purpose or a person isn't fully grasped. Originality and authenticity often come through the fire of suffering—the very trials that prepare us for a life marked by divine manifestation. As silver must be refined, so too must we undergo seasons of refining to align with our multidimensional calling.

A true relationship with the Holy Spirit is essential to navigate this process. In this episode, we urge listeners to embrace the journey, recognizing that the path of suffering is often the prelude to spiritual impartation. We reflect on the words of Jesus from Luke 9:23 that call us to pick up our crosses, reminding us that true faith often demands sacrifice for a greater purpose.

Ultimately, this episode serves as a powerful reminder that every trial we face in our walk with faith is a stepping stone toward a deeper connection with God and the rewards that await us. A crown of life is promised to those who endure, and together, discover how to keep the faith through the suffering.

DISCIPLESHIP COURSE|STUDY OF THE WORDS AND LIFE OF JESUS IN SYNOPTIC GOSPEL |UPGRADE |CHIMDI OHAHUNA

Understanding God, Trials, and Temptations

Welcome to the latest episode of our enlightening series, WORDS OF JESUS, where we deeply consider Jesus's second words and explore the complexities of faith, trials, and the nature of God’s testing. In today’s episode, we tackle a crucial question: Can God tempt us? Many believers struggle with divine testing versus demonic temptation, and we unpack the significant difference that can shape our understanding of God’s character and our response to life’s challenges.

Join us as we explore the biblical truth that while God may test us through trials, He does not tempt us with evil. This throws light on how the term "the tempter" is consistently associated with the devil throughout scripture, emphasizing that God’s nature is not to lead us into temptation but to guide us through our adversities. We reflect on the story of Job, highlighting that God’s boasting about him led to trials administered by Satan, who used evil as his method of testing.

With insightful analysis, we differentiate between temptation and trial, showing that while trials can lead to growth and strength, the temptation is laced with evil and designed to lead us astray. We discuss how the devil cleverly disguises his traps in the appearance of good, which can be challenging for believers navigating their faith journey.

Learn why it’s essential to discern between what is simply “good” and divinely “perfect.” We explore the depth of God’s gifts, which are not only good but perfect and acceptable, stressing that when we settle for merely good, we risk being deceived by the enemy.

Empower yourself with transformative truths as we encourage you to pursue not just good—but the perfect will of God in your life. Discover how to recognize and reject the counterfeit offerings of the enemy and embrace the genuine goodness that comes from our Creator.

Tune in for thoughtful discussions, biblical insights, and practical applications that will help you strengthen your faith and navigate the challenges of life with clarity and confidence. Remember, when we choose God, we choose the good, acceptable, and perfect gifts He has in store for us. Don't miss this enlightening episode, where we uncover the truth behind testing, temptation, and the goodness of God!

THE FAMILY THE HOME| 2024 SERIES|DAY 6|RESTORING FAMILY HEALTH| FUNKE OHAHUNA

Welcome to “The Family The Home Series” a podcast dedicated to reshaping our understanding of family as a unit and as a divine design for service and healing. This episode covers into the profound concept that every family is named under the Father God, and the man is entrusted with the sacred responsibility of leadership, guidance, and management, primarily dedicated to fostering an environment of love and care.

Discover the intricate meaning of the word “household” derived from the Greek term “therapeia,” linking our homes to the essential practice of therapy— a love-engendered service rendered from one to another in the home. Many of us overlook our families as spaces for service and healing; instead, we often see them merely as social units tied by blood. Yet, as we examine God’s intentions for the family, we reveal that it is intricately designed to be a sanctuary for healing.

In this podcast, we draw connections between spiritual nourishment and practical healing found within the home—encompassing emotional, psychological, and even financial well-being. Our discussions highlight how the role of a father—or any family leader—is not just to provide materially but also to offer emotional support, healing words, and unconditional love, rejuvenating both relationships and individual self-esteem.

The session features stories, testimonials, and insights illustrating how emotional connections and verbal affirmations can be transformative. For instance, we discuss the impact of a father’s words on a child’s self-worth and the detrimental effects of neglect in a family setting. We also emphasize the need for balance—understanding that while financial provision is vital, time and emotional investment are equally crucial to the health of the family unit.

Listeners will benefit from practical tips on how to engage with family members meaningfully, creating a home environment reminiscent of the Garden of Eden, filled with healing provisions. We also explore the importance of teamwork and delegation within the family structure, much like roles in a hospital, where various responsibilities are shared to ensure comprehensive care.

With guidance from scriptures and the Holy Spirit, this podcast aims to empower believers especially the men to embrace their roles as healers and nurturers in their homes—not as superheroes but as managers of a loving and thriving family environment.

This revelation will transform our homes into places of healing, understanding that through service, love, and purposeful communication, we can bring about profound change. Listen now and take your first step toward a healthier family dynamic!

THE FAMILY THE HOME| 2024 SERIES|DAY 5|SERVICE ENGENDERED BY LOVE| FUNKE OHAHUNA

In this episode of "The Family The Home Summit," We discussed service in the home, emphasizing the importance of mutual love and support within family dynamics. Drawing on biblical teachings from Galatians 5 and the story of Joseph, you will discover what hierarchical family structures entail and highlight the dangers of envy and jealousy. As we reflect on God's design for family relationships, you will also understand how true service should be motivated by love.

Here are the key takeaways:

1. Mutual Service Rooted in Love: Service in the home should be a mutual act of love, not a hierarchical duty. Galatians 5:13 reminds us to "serve one another in love," breaking away from the senior-junior mentality.

2. Defining True Service: Service is about helpful acts and contributions to others' welfare, driven by love. When love is the foundation, service becomes a joyful and fulfilling part of family life.

3. The Role of Love: Love should be an inherent quality in family interactions, not just a preached topic. True liberty in Christ empowers us to serve others selflessly, avoiding self-centered behavior.

4. Mutual Support & Encouragement: Service involves lifting each other up, celebrating successes, and supporting during tough times. The story of Joseph and his brothers highlights the dangers of envy and the importance of love.

5. Training in Love: Teaching children to love one another fosters a healthier family dynamic. A love-centered approach to parenting leads to a more harmonious family environment.

6. The Command to Love: Galatians 5:14 calls us to "love thy neighbor as thyself," extending this love to our family members. Love is a command from God, not just a suggestion, and should guide all family interactions.

Curiosities & Thought-Provoking Points

a) Liberty in Christ: How does true freedom allow us to serve one another selflessly?

b) Jealousy & Envy: What can we learn from Joseph’s story about the impact of envy in families?

c) Parental Role: How can parents model love and service effectively for their children?

Why You Should Listen

It’s a call to action for families to reflect on their dynamics and strive for a nurturing environment where love and service are at the forefront.

BIBLE STUDY MIRACLES OF JESUS SERIES| THE FOURTH MIRACLE OF JESUS Pt. 35| THE FEEDING OF 5,000 MEN WITH 5 LOAVES OF BARLEY BREAD AND 2 FISHES| CHIMDI OHAHUNA

Welcome back to another enlightening episode of "There is Much Grass." This study session uncovers yet another profound significance of the "much grass" mentioned in John 6:10, exploring themes of growth, flourishing, and spiritual abundance.

Grass symbolizes peace and prosperity—something that occurs naturally, without man-made interventions. Just as grass thrives on the nutrients found in its environment, our faith and spiritual lives flourish in Christ Jesus, who is our Land and the ultimate source of growth (John 1:1-14; Romans 10:17; Mark 11:23).

In this episode discover:

The Symbolism of Grass: Understand how grass represents our spiritual journey—how it grows unassisted, reminding us that we too can flourish in Christ without artificial enhancements. Our spiritual nourishment comes solely from the Word of God, allowing us to cultivate a deep and abiding faith.

Being Resources to Mankind: When we recognize Christ as our source, we become sources of inspiration and support to others. Within our relationship with Christ lies the potential for creativity and innovation. We encourage listeners to seek a deeper knowledge of Him, as it empowers us to serve others more effectively.

The Power of Thinking: A thought-provoking exploration of how thinking engenders emancipation from bondage. It’s a reminder that our service to Christ is an intentional act that requires active engagement with our minds.

Sitting on the Grass: What does it mean to "sit on the grass"? We considered this metaphor, illustrating the idea of placing our faith fully in Christ as our sole source and supply. It’s about embracing the risk of trusting Jesus completely, knowing that such faith comes with eternal rewards.

The Assurance of Christ: Jesus is more than enough. We’re reminded that sitting in Him will not lead to failure in life. As we anchor our every hope in Christ alone, we will find the strength and support we need to thrive.

Join us for a journey through these powerful themes, as we reaffirm our faith in Christ and recognize that everything we need to blossom as children of God is found in Him. Tune in to explore how we can navigate our spiritual journeys with purpose and assurance, leaning on the One who sustains us all.

THE FAMILY THE HOME| 2024 SERIES|DAY 4| FAITH, AUTHORITY, AND FAMILY| FUNKE OHAHUNA

This is Day 4 of the Family The Home Summit Series, a transformative podcast dedicated to exploring the intricate dynamics of authority within the Christian family unit. In this thought-provoking series, we consider the biblical and spiritual aspects of family leadership, focusing on the unique role of the father as the head of the nuclear family. Our discussions center around the foundational structure of family, father, mother, and children. And, how authority is not simply a hierarchical concept but a vital spiritual principle that can be exercised by every family member.

This episode will illuminate the concept of authority, defined not just as a position of power, but as the ability to influence thoughts, command opinions, and encourage positive behavior within the family. Discover how this authority can be assigned, shared, and even temporarily conferred to others in the family, depending on circumstances, so everyone is empowered to take an active role in spiritual leadership.

Our mission isn't just to delineate roles and responsibilities, we aim to awaken a deeper spiritual consciousness among Christian families. We believe that as heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, every family should acknowledge and exercise the redemptive work of Jesus within their household. Also, discover how to cultivate a family environment where each member is equipped to exercise their God-given authority, helping them learn how to stand firm against spiritual opposition—symbolized by the serpent, lion, and scorpion.

Throughout this session, we discussed the common tendency to rely excessively on a singular spiritual leader within the home. And, we encourage shared responsibility, nurtured fellowship, and abundant resource-sharing among family members, regardless of their individual spiritual maturity. By doing so, we believe families can uplift one another in faith, fostering a community where everyone feels empowered to declare the Word of God and manifest His promises through signs and wonders.

Join us as we dig into vital conversations about how to actively engage in the Kingdom of God right from your living room—reminding you that you don’t have to fear exercising your authority in Christ. When you proclaim the Word of God, you unleash His power, and together as a family, we can overcome the challenges posed by the enemy.

If you're ready to reclaim your family’s spiritual authority and nurture a powerful legacy of faith, listen now for inspiration, practical insights, and empowering teaching to transform your home into a haven of divine authority and grace.

THE FAMILY THE HOME| 2024 SERIES|DAY 3| PEACEMAKERS IN THE FAMILY OF GOD| FUNKE OHAHUNA

This is Day 3 of the Family The Home Summit Series, where we understand the transformative power of peace in our homes and families by considering the core principles that shape our homes and families in alignment with God’s design. Building on our previous discussion from Matthew 5:9, we continue exploring what it truly means to be "children of God" and the vital aspects of righteousness and spiritual growth essential for cultivating an environment of love, peace, and unity within our households.

In this episode, discover the biblical foundation that highlights the essence of peace as a divine attribute of our Creator—the God of peace who desires wholeness for our lives. As we reflect on Romans 15:33 and Hebrews 13:20-21, we recognize that peace is not just a passive state but an active pursuit where righteousness reigns at home. Our families are called to mirror this divine peace, allowing us to show the world who we are: God's beloved children, reflecting His light and glory through our actions. What does it mean to be a son or daughter of God in practical terms? How do faith and obedience intertwine to shape our spiritual identity?

Receive revelation light on the foundational truths regarding the standard of righteousness in the family of God. We emphasize that there can be no compromise; rather, we must actively oppose the forces of darkness in our own lives. Only then can we experience the heavenly bliss that God intends for our families.

Every member of the family is crucial to ensuring that Christ is continually formed within our homes. We’ll provide practical insights on how to engage every family member in spiritual growth, emphasizing that no one should be left behind. Disconnected family members can become weak links, inviting chaos where peace should reign.

Discover also the importance of creating a culture of faith and obedience in our homes. By fostering trust and reliance on God, we can build stronger relationships between spouses and between parents and children. This culture not only enhances unity but also enhances our ability to navigate conflicts effectively.

Also, discover how being born of the Spirit and following God's leading can radically change our family dynamics, driving us toward selflessness and away from sin—ultimately enhancing our relationships with one another. We boldly address the need to rid our families of selfishness and sin. We explore how these destructive forces have historically undermined family unity and why they must be actively resisted. With the Holy Spirit as our guide, we can cultivate an atmosphere free from self-centeredness, positioning ourselves to fully experience God’s goodness and wholeness in our lives.

The importance of establishing a culture of righteousness in our families, ensuring that every member, from spouses to children, is included in the journey of Christ-like growth cannot be over-emphasized. Can our homes truly be examples of heaven on earth? We believe they can, and in this episode, you’ll discover practical insights on nurturing an environment filled with godly peace and good works.

Join us for this enlightening session as we seek to understand not just what it means to be children of the God of peace, but how we can embody and share this peace in our homes—creating sanctuaries of love, joy, and strength that honor our Heavenly Father. It is time to take practical steps toward building a family spirit that reflects the character of Christ. Let us embark on a journey toward a thriving family life that glorifies God in every way!
