In this powerful episode, Karen and I welcome author and podcast host, Julie Hedenborg to discuss the beauty of miracles.

But beyond the miracle itself, we explore a deeper question: Are we seeking God's hand, or are we truly pursuing His heart?

Too often, our faith is fixated on what we want God to do, rather than who He is. This episode encourages you to realign your heart—not just to believe for your breakthrough, but to draw nearer to the One who performs it.

You'll be reminded that God is still in the miracle-working business, but His ultimate desire is relationship, not just results.

Whether you’re waiting for healing, restoration, provision, or direction, this episode will stir your faith to keep believing.

Because even when it feels like nothing is changing, God is still moving behind the scenes. And sometimes, the greatest miracle isn’t in what happens to us, but what happens in us.

What You’ll Hear in This Episode:

• Why miracles are only part of the story.

• The difference between seeking God’s hand vs. His heart.
• How to build faith while you wait.

Take a moment this week to pray, not just for your miracle, but for a deeper connection with God’s heart. Listen, be encouraged, and share this with someone who needs hope today."And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart. (Jeremiah 29:13 NKJV)

In this powerful episode, we’re reminded that Jesus isn’t just our Savior—He’s our Champion. Tune in as we discuss what it truly means to fix our eyes on Jesus, especially in the middle of life’s struggles, doubts, and distractions.

Jesus has already won the victory, and our job is to trust Him, follow Him, and lean into His strength every step of the way.

Key Takeaways:

• Jesus is our ultimate Champion. He fought and won the battle over sin and death, and we can walk in freedom because of His victory.

• Fix your eyes on Jesus. In a world full of noise, fear, and temptation, our focus must be on Christ—He is the author and perfecter of our faith (Hebrews 12:2).

• We don’t fight alone. Whatever we’re facing, Jesus goes before us, stands with us, and strengthens us through His Spirit.

Tune in and be encouraged to stop striving and start trusting the One who’s already overcome it all.

"For here is the way God loved the world—he gave his only, unique Son as a gift. So now everyone who believes in him will never perish but experience everlasting life. “God did not send his Son into the world to judge and condemn the world, but to be its Savior and rescue it!" " (John 3:16-17 TPT)

In this episode of the Elevate The Day Podcast, we explore the concept of miracles and why, as believers, our faith should not be solely dependent on the pursuit of miraculous solutions.

While miracles are wonderful and amazing and demonstrate God's love and power, our faith must be built on something more enduring: the Word of God.

Tune in as we discuss:

Why we don't want to place too much emphasis on miracles rather than strengthening our relationship with God's Word.

How building faith in the Word helps us trust God in boththe extraordinary and everyday moments of life.

Practical steps for allowing God’s Word to transform ourhearts and minds.

"Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord." (Colossians 3:16 NKJV)

In this episode of the Elevate The Day podcast, we explorethe concept of timing—specifically God's timing versus our own.

We live in a world that values speed and immediate gratification, but God’s timeline is different, and His plans are perfect.

Join us as we discuss how to trust in God’s timing, alignourselves with His plans, and receive His promises. God's promises are for us, and they will come to pass when the time is right. All we need to do is trust and receive them with patience and faith.

If you're feeling like you're falling behind, remember thatGod’s timing is perfect. There's no need to rush. Trust that He has a beautiful plan for you, and when the time is right, everything will fall into place according to His will.

"Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." (Hebrews 11:1 NKJV)
