Y’all… this one is WILD. In this episode of Bible Curious, I’m sharing the angel encounter that completely rocked my world and fast-tracked my faith journey. We’re talking dreams, biblical revelations, and what it all means for our walk with God. I dive deep into what the Lord showed me through this angel about Moses (was he…sexy after finding God), Lucifer (cautionary tale for those ostentatious ones), and how we’re being called to step into our God-given gifts NOW. Buckle up, this one is a mix of supernatural and self-confronting truths. TAKEAWAYS: * My angel encounter was a huge turning point in my faith. * Moses’ story reminds us that leading others to God is the mission. * Lucifer? The ultimate example of why chasing personal glory = disaster. * Angels of love and truth are awakening gifts within us—are you listening? * Transformation isn’t a one-and-done deal; it’s a daily renewal of faith. * My Enoch dream held prophetic insights about the end times (yes, we’re going there). * To fully step into new life in Christ, we gotta let go of the old. * The faith journey = death and rebirth (sounds dramatic, but trust me, it’s necessary). * Understanding biblical figures gives us next-level spiritual wisdom.Your story matters—sharing it might be exactly what someone else needs to hear.

(00:00:10): I'm your host, (00:00:11): Amberlee Lyons, (00:00:12): and I'm really excited because today I'm going to be breaking down and diving into (00:00:19): a wild angel encounter that I had that is part of my testimony. (00:00:24): I have touched on this a little bit in my testimony episode, (00:00:30): but we are getting nitty gritty in my infamous Enoch dream. (00:00:36): I'm going to tell you guys all of the lessons that I learned in that dream and all (00:00:41): of the ways that I was turned to God from that dream are just becoming more and (00:00:45): more clear every single day. (00:00:48): The words that I heard in this angelic encounter, they are coming true. (00:00:55): And it's like they were little seeds planted within me. (00:00:58): They were served up a little early and I didn't really get them at the time. (00:01:04): But as I've grown in my faith and my own journey and I've let old parts of me die, (00:01:10): wow, (00:01:11): the relevance is wild. (00:01:14): And I'm recording this because I posted on Instagram asking what you guys want me (00:01:19): to blog about on my blog. (00:01:21): And I give you guys a few different options. (00:01:24): And so many of you guys wanted me to blog about this, (00:01:28): but I was like, (00:01:28): I'm going to make this a podcast instead because I feel like it needs a lot of (00:01:32): context as I'm going through it. (00:01:35): And to type it out would actually just be a lot. (00:01:38): But on that note, if you guys haven't checked out the blog, make sure to check out my blog. (00:01:43): It's called God's Favorite. (00:01:44): It's on Substack. (00:01:45): I'll link you guys in the show notes. (00:01:47): So whatever app you are listening on, (00:01:50): just go to the show notes and you can click it or you can just Google God's (00:01:53): Favorite Substack. (00:01:54): It's hosted on Substack and you will find me. (00:01:59): And yeah, you guys were really wanting to hear about this. (00:02:04): So we're going to break it down. (00:02:06): So I want to clarify, (00:02:08): I am not sharing any of this thinking that I'm more special than anyone or that I (00:02:12): have superpowers. (00:02:13): This is something that happened to me that I give all gratitude to God for it. (00:02:17): It had nothing to do with me. (00:02:19): It was a gift that I can take no credit for. (00:02:24): And while I was in bed this morning, (00:02:25): I actually asked God what I should talk about this episode. (00:02:28): And he gave me obviously all these amazing little talking points and things that I (00:02:33): should include. (00:02:35): I, one thing that he said was the word ostentatious and I had to look it up. (00:02:41): I was like, what does that even mean? (00:02:43): And I was like, Hmm, is he telling me not to be ostentatious? (00:02:46): Okay. (00:02:46): It basically means like being a show off, right? (00:02:50): Or is he telling me to tell you guys not to be ostentatious? (00:02:58): Because I wrote down this morning, (00:03:02): I wrote down, (00:03:02): while the world is manifesting, (00:03:04): I'm getting closer to God. (00:03:05): And then I automatically heard the word ostentatious. (00:03:09): And I was like, (00:03:09): okay, (00:03:10): is he telling – am I being ostentatious or is he telling me that people that are (00:03:14): like manifesting are being ostentatious? (00:03:16): So immediately I was like, (00:03:17): okay, (00:03:17): I know in this episode that I cannot take credit or think that I'm special and get (00:03:21): that out of the way first and foremost. (00:03:24): But also, I'm going to assume he's talking about you guys. (00:03:27): Just kidding. (00:03:29): No, (00:03:29): but also, (00:03:30): I was just thinking of back in the days when I was into manifestation, (00:03:34): it was so much like, (00:03:35): oh, (00:03:35): I'm such a good manifester. (00:03:36): I can manifest anything. (00:03:37): I'm so powerful. (00:03:39): I just feel like that is the same attitude that got Satan banished from heaven. (00:03:43): This like playing God energy, (00:03:46): which we're going to talk about today because that was one of the messages that I (00:03:50): got from my angel encounter. (00:03:52): We're not going to be ostentatious today. (00:03:54): And what I'm sharing today, (00:03:55): again, (00:03:56): it's my testimony of God's wisdom and power that has nothing to do with me. (00:03:59): It has to do with God being amazing. (00:04:01): And truly, he has just always saved me from all kinds of predicaments. (00:04:06): And this dream happened. (00:04:09): at a time when I needed saving and when I needed to turn to God. (00:04:14): So I'm going to give you a little bit of backstory about where I was. (00:04:17): So this was November 2022. (00:04:19): So back up a little further than that. (00:04:23): Even in 2020, I had my appendix removed. (00:04:27): And as I was coming out of the anesthesia, (00:04:31): anesthetic, (00:04:32): however you say it, (00:04:33): I heard this man's booming voice say, (00:04:36): I renounce the dark and bring you into the light. (00:04:38): I mean, I thought it was wild, but I didn't really understand what it was. (00:04:42): And without realizing it after that day, (00:04:44): I just started being more interested in learning about God and listening to sermons. (00:04:48): And I wasn't like reading the Bible or anything or like taking it too seriously, (00:04:52): but I was maybe praying a little bit more than about a year after that, (00:04:57): probably less than a year. (00:04:58): I, yeah, no, at least a year. (00:05:01): I retired from coaching. (00:05:03): I was doing... (00:05:05): a program called Chakra Girl Business School that made me, (00:05:09): you know, (00:05:09): multiple seven figures and I was traveling the world and I had this really fabulous (00:05:13): life helping women learn new age deception. (00:05:18): I was really teaching a lot of things that I don't believe in anymore. (00:05:22): But I decided to retire from that in 2021. (00:05:26): And it wasn't because of my conviction with God or anything about that, but I was just over it. (00:05:31): And I think God was pointing me in a different direction. (00:05:35): And I was at that time obviously seeking truth a lot more. (00:05:38): It was obviously during like all the COVID b******t and everyone was just kind of like, (00:05:45): okay, (00:05:45): the world is not what it seems. (00:05:47): So what is it? (00:05:49): And obviously, if you keep going down that rabbit hole, you're going to find God. (00:05:54): But yeah, I was kind of, like I said, listening to sermons a little bit, dabbling a little bit. (00:05:58): But then when I moved in 2022, I moved to the middle of nowhere. (00:06:05): And that was really when the ego death started and it got dark. (00:06:09): Yeah. (00:06:11): I, (00:06:11): I had retired from coaching the new age stuff, (00:06:15): but I launched a few little things that were a little bit more God related, (00:06:20): but I didn't really understand the separation. (00:06:23): Like I was still kind of had a little bit of new age stuff in there, (00:06:26): like channeling and aliens and whatever. (00:06:29): Yeah, I know it was crazy. (00:06:31): But I put a lot of effort into launching this one program and the launch did not go well. (00:06:39): And I was like, what is going on? (00:06:42): Like, God, I thought we were in this together. (00:06:44): And I was actually like mad at God. (00:06:48): And I was just like, I don't have time for your lessons right now. (00:06:52): I'm going to go back to my little new age bubble. (00:06:55): And then I started, (00:06:58): again, (00:06:59): doing all this manifestation stuff where I was in control and where I was the star (00:07:04): and all these things. (00:07:06): And of course, I ended up just being miserable. (00:07:08): And a few months went by and I wasn't praying. (00:07:11): I was still mad at God. (00:07:12): I wasn't doing any of that stuff anymore. (00:07:14): And then I had gained a bunch of weight. (00:07:17): I got in a car accident in October, (00:07:21): which I believe was God being like, (00:07:23): hello, (00:07:24): come back to me, (00:07:25): pay attention. (00:07:26): And then I kind of maybe started prayi
