This episode unpacks how the devil really operates, based on John 10:10 — “The thief comes only to steal, kill, and destroy.” Ashley Terradez dives into the truth that while the devil is real, his power is built on deception, not authority. The only influence he has is the power we give him through fear or agreement with his lies.

Through this teaching, Ashley reminds us that Jesus has already defeated the enemy through His death and resurrection. Because of that victory, believers can live free from fear, empowered to walk in the abundant life Jesus promised. This episode encourages listeners to know who they are in Christ, stand firm in truth, and stop giving the enemy a foothold through doubt or fear.

• The devil operates through deception: His power isn’t real—it’s based on convincing people he still has authority.
• John 10:10 explains his intent: The devil comes to steal, kill, and destroy—but he can’t act without permission.
• Jesus already won: His death and resurrection gave believers abundant life and broke the enemy’s influence.
• Know your identity: Stop seeing yourself as a victim and start walking as a victorious overcomer in Christ.
• Faith activates victory: Believing and standing on God’s promises unlocks His blessings—spiritually, physically, and materially.
• Community matters: Surround yourself with people who strengthen your faith and remind you of your authority in Christ.

The main theme of this episode is the power of expectation—how what we believe and expect plays a huge role in seeing God’s promises come to life. Carlie Terradez shares how expectation acts as a bridge between our faith and the manifestation of God’s Word. Through a touching story about her son, Zachary, Carlie shows how aligning our belief with what God says can lead to real, tangible results.

The conversation also looks at powerful biblical examples—like Jairus’s daughter and the woman with the issue of blood—to reveal how different levels of expectation influence how people receive from God. In the end, the message is clear: what we expect determines what we experience, and when we set our hearts on God’s goodness, we open the door to miracles.

• Faith in action: Jairus’s story shows that even in desperate moments, shifting your expectation can change everything.
