Walking Together with Dennis Leavell

Naaman, a powerful Syrian general, was desperate for a miracle, but he almost missed it because it didn't come the way he expected.

You have to let God be God. Listen now and be encouraged.

Joshua didn’t lose a battle…he lost a decision. And it all came down to one thing he didn’t do. It looked right. It felt right. It made sense, but God wasn’t a part of the decision. You might be making the same mistake Joshua did. Before your next decision, ask Him first.

Judges 16 tells us that Samson makes a terrible choice, escapes an ambush, and rips the city gates out of the ground. God delivers him, but Samson never changes. If you’ve ever confused God’s grace for permission to keep doing what you're doing, this episode is for you.

In this episode, we unpack Joshua 22 and explore how assumptions, misunderstandings, and rushed reactions nearly led God’s people into war against each other, and it was all because of a misunderstanding. It’s a biblical and relatable reminder to pause, ask, and listen before reacting.

A scent or smell can speak before a word is even said.  In John 12, Mary speaks without having to say a word.  Her act of worship fills the entire house with the smell of an expensive perfume. What does that mean for us today?  Listen in and be encouraged.
