    S2|EP.62 "Will You Be Found Faithful."

    Will You Be Found Faithful? | My Faith Is Bigger Than My Fears What does it really mean to be faithful when nobody is watching? In this powerful episode of My Faith Is Bigger Than My Fears, Tamela Ingram takes us into the story of Daniel and explores what it looks like to remain faithful to God when your faith is tested, your environment encourages compromise, and obedience comes with a cost. Drawing from Daniel 5:14 and Daniel 6, we are reminded of the remarkable character of a man whose faith, wisdom, integrity, and relationship with God were evident to those around him. Daniel 5:14 speaks of the Spirit of God being in Daniel, along with light, understanding, and excellent wisdom. Then, in Daniel 6:4, Daniel's enemies searched his life for something they could use against him—but they could find no charge or fault because he was faithful. And when Daniel's faith was put to the ultimate test in Daniel 6, he refused to compromise. Even when a decree threatened his life, Daniel continued to pray to God as he had always done. Daniel's story reminds us that faithfulness doesn't always keep you out of the trial—it can carry you through it. This episode invites us to take an honest look at our own lives and ask: Who am I when nobody is watching?Can God trust me with the season I'm in right now?Will I remain faithful when obedience is costly?Will I trust God when I don't understand what He's doing?Is my faith bigger than my fears?Whether you're facing fear, pressure, uncertainty, rejection, disappointment, or your own “lion's den,” this episode will encourage you to keep praying, keep trusting, keep obeying, and keep believing. You don't have to be fearless to be faithful. You just have to keep trusting God. “Lord, make me faithful.” Not famous.Not popular.Not celebrated.Faithful. Your faith may be tested, but your faithfulness can become your testimony.  Scripture Focus:Daniel 5:14Daniel 6Daniel 6:4 Listen, reflect, and share this episode with someone who needs encouragement to stand firm in their faith.

    S2|EP 61: "Stop Putting Expectations on People Who Can’t Fulfill Them".

    Family, welcome back to My Faith Is Bigger Than My Fears!  After taking some much-needed time in July to reset, rest, fast, pray, and spend uninterrupted time with God, Tamela Ingram is back—and this episode starts a brand-new conversation about expectations, disappointment, and learning to trust God completely. Have you ever been disappointed because someone didn’t call, show up, support you, celebrate you, or keep their word? Sometimes the hurt isn’t only about what someone did. Sometimes it’s about the expectations we placed on them. In this episode, Tamela encourages us to stop expecting people to provide what only God can give—our security, peace, validation, joy, and hope. You’ll be reminded that:• People are human, but God never changes.• Unspoken expectations can create unnecessary disappointment.• Your happiness cannot depend on another person.• Everyone will not understand or support your God-given assignment—and that’s okay.• People may disappoint you, but God will never leave you.• Your refuge, confidence, peace, and security belong in God. Tamela also gives you a practical weekly journal challenge to help you identify unhealthy expectations and surrender them to God. This week, ask yourself: “Did God promise me this, or did I expect this from them?” And when someone disappoints you, instead of saying, “They let me down,” choose to say: “God, I’m choosing to trust You.” If you’ve been struggling with disappointment, unmet expectations, or relying too heavily on others for your peace, this episode is for you. Grab your Bible, your journal, your tea, water, or matcha—and let’s get into today’s conversation. Because here on My Faith Is Bigger Than My Fears… We motivate. We encourage. We put our faith and trust in God. And we conquer our fears—one episode at a time. Remember: God is with you. God is for you. Your faith is bigger than your fears.  Love you all… but God loves you so much more! New episodes every Monday. Listen + Subscribe:Don’t miss future episodes!

    S2|EP 60. Don’t Go Back-Protecting What God Brought You Through: Letting Go-Starting Over series

    EP 60: Don't Go Back — Protecting What God Brought You Through As we close out the Starting Over & Letting Go series, we're talking about something every believer faces after healing and growth—the temptation to go back. After God delivers you, the enemy often tries to convince you to return to old habits, old mindsets, unhealthy relationships, and the very places God has called you out of. But God didn't bring you this far for you to turn around. In this episode, we'll discuss how to stand firm in your freedom, guard your peace, protect your progress, and continue walking confidently into the new life God has for you. In this episode, we'll cover:• Why it's tempting to return to old habits • How to recognize the enemy's tactics • Practical ways to guard your peace and protect your spiritual growth • Biblical encouragement to keep moving forward  • A weekly challenge to help you remain steadfast in your faithThis week I want you to do three things. Number One: Write down three things God has delivered you from. Thank Him for every one of them. Number Two: Identify one area where you're tempted to go backwards. Pray specifically over that area every day this week. Number Three: Choose one habit that protects your peace. Maybe it's reading one chapter of Scripture daily. Maybe it's worship during your commute. Maybe it's putting your phone away earlier. Maybe it's spending ten quiet minutes with God each morning. Whatever it is... Commit to it this week. Small, consistent choices lead to lasting transformation. Key Scriptures:• Galatians 5:1 • Proverbs 4:23 • Philippians 4:7 • Isaiah 43:18–19 • Exodus 16:3 Remember, your healing is worth protecting, your peace is worth guarding, and your future is too valuable to trade for your past.
