Ep 85: The Worst Thing You Can Do

Video
Men’s Alliance

Theodore Roosevelt said, "The worst thing you can do is nothing," and I completely agree. Whether it's working out, having a daily devotion, or leading your family spiritually, it's better to do SOMETHING than to sit on the sidelines doing nothing because you don't have time to create a five-star production. We don't have to be perfect in order to lead workouts and devotions at Men's Alliance. We just have to be willing to get off the sideline. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mensalliancetribe/support

Mission Briefing 58: Consecrate Yourself - What It Really Means to Be Set Apart for God

Video
Men’s Alliance

What does it truly mean to consecrate yourself in today’s world? It’s a word that might seem ancient, but its significance is just as powerful now as it was in biblical times. In this video, we explore the biblical call to be set apart, looking at the story of Samson and the powerful instructions from Joshua 3:5 and Joshua 7—where God promises to do amazing things, but only after His people consecrate themselves.But here’s the twist: Consecration isn’t about doing more—it’s about doing less. It’s about removing what stands between you and God so that He can move in your life. Are there things holding you back from experiencing God’s power? Let’s dive into this life-changing principle and discover how we can truly live set apart for God’s purpose.📖 Scripture References:- Joshua 3:5 – “Consecrate yourselves, for tomorrow the Lord will do amazing things among you.”- Joshua 7:13 – “Get up, consecrate the people… You cannot stand before your enemies until you take away the accursed thing.”🙏 Challenge: What can you remove from your life to be fully set apart for God?
