    You're Not Waiting on God (What's Really Delaying Your Breakthrough)

    #206 // FOR THE WOMAN WHO'S BEEN BELIEVING GOD FOR THE SAME THING FOR YEARS AND IS STARTING TO WONDER WHY NOTHING HAS MOVED. You've prayed about it. You've fasted over it. You've asked for more faith. You've told yourself you're just waiting on His timing. But what if you're really not waiting on God? What if something infected your faith somewhere along the way and you didn't know it? What if you've been waiting, but you really need to be doing something? That's what we're getting into today on this episode of the Positioned to Prosper Podcast with Erica Pyle. Here's what we’re covering: → WHY MORE FAITH WON'T GET YOU UNSTUCK. We've been taught to believe that faith is an action, when it's really a thing. A substance. Once we realize what the ACTION of faith is, that's when things can get unstuck. → CAN'T I JUST PRAY THIS OFF ME? Make no mistake… prayer is powerful. But there's one specific thing it cannot do, and almost nobody will tell you that out loud. I will. This one can set you free. → HOW DID IT EVEN GET IN? There are three entry points, and every one of them shows up when the enemy is trying to wear you out and get you off your promise. Close these doors and you're golden. → WHY GOD REALLY LETS US HIT ROCK BOTTOM. Here's the mercy of God… He never lets us go! This means, even when we're feeling STUCK stuck, He still has a few ways to get our attention and help us to get moving in accordance with our purpose in Him again. Listen, Sis… this is not a word about trying harder. There's one specific action that moves things, and you can take it today. Grab your Bible, your journal and a pen, and… Let's Go! 📖 SCRIPTURES REFERENCED: Hebrews 11:1 · James 2:17-18 · Mark 9:24 · 2 Kings 5:1-15 · Luke 17:11-19 · Genesis 3:1 · Daniel 7:25 · Romans 8:39 🔗 RESOURCES + LINKS: 📖 Come Study the Book of Nehemiah with Me! Monday nights at 7:00pm ET on Zoom. A full leadership study on rebuilding what's been broken down and building healthy spiritual habits, co-ed, taught alongside my husband.

    Why Do I Still Feel Guilty After I Repent? (The 4 Steps to Real Repentance)

    #205 // You took it to God. You said what you did. You meant it. But it's still weighing heavy on you. Why? So, now you're wondering what's wrong with you. Why it didn't lift. Why you keep going back to confess the same thing like maybe this time it'll stick, and it never does. Sister, here's what I need you to hear: If you're still carrying guilt and shame, you probably haven't fully repented yet. Not all the way. You likely missed a step. But the good news is, you can get all the way there. Real repentance produces relief and gratitude. If that's not what's on the other side of it, you got stopped somewhere. There are four steps, and almost all of us are getting stuck on the same one. In this episode I'm walking you through all four, so you can find the exact place you're stuck and get moving again. Grab your Bible, your journal and a pen, and… Let’s Go! Here's what we get into: → IS THIS CONVICTION OR IS THIS CONDEMNATION? They feel similar enough that most believers can't tell them apart, which is exactly why so many of us stay stuck. There's one difference you can feel in your body, and once you know it you'll never confuse them again. → WHY DOES IT KEEP GETTING HARDER? What happens when you stop at step two and call it done. There's a reason the same thing comes back stronger every time, and Jesus warned us about it directly. → WHAT ARE THE FOUR STEPS? Awareness. Conviction. Repentance. Fruit. Where each one starts, what each one actually feels like, and the only one of the four where another person can help you. → HOW DO I KNOW IT WAS REAL? There's a test, and it isn't how sorry you felt. Jesus said wisdom is proved by her children. Repentance works the same way, and the fruit is specific enough that you can check yourself. Listen, Sis… there's joy waiting on the other side of this. If you can't get to it, you're just stuck somewhere in the four steps. Let's find the place and move you past it. 📖 Scriptures Referenced: Luke 17:3-4 · Romans 10:9-10 · Matthew 18 · Galatians 5:22-23 · Romans 8:28 · 2 Samuel 12:7 · Colossians 3:15 🔗 RESOURCES + LINKS: ☀️ Join me for Get Ready with God: LIVE weekday mornings at 7:30am ET. 30 minutes of inspo, prayer and the word before the day grabs the wheel. → Instagram: instagram.com/ericapyle → Facebook: ericapyle.com/BizFB 🌴 Join us at REVIVE Church of Tampa: ⛪️ Sundays at 11am · in person and online 📍 1803 N.

    Saying Sorry Isn't Repentance (What God's Standard Actually Requires)

    #204 // You know somebody who keeps saying sorry. Same apology, same tears maybe. And then the same thing happens again a few weeks later. Or maybe the person you're thinking of is you. Here's where most of us get tangled up. We've been taught that repentance is feeling bad about what we did. So we feel bad. We say sorry. We promise God we'll do better. And then we go around the same mountain again, and we cannot figure out why the cycle won't break. Sister, that's not repentance. That's not even close. In this episode I'm walking you through God's actual standard for repentance, straight out of Leviticus 23 and Psalm 51, so you can finally see what's really going on and what actually needs to get fixed. Grab your Bible and press play! Here's what we get into: → WHY DOES NOTHING CHANGE AFTER I APOLOGIZE? There's a line between being sorry and being repentant, and almost nobody has been shown where it is. Everything downstream of it is different. → WHY DOES MY PRAYER TIME FEEL EMPTY? Moses walked out of the tent of meeting with his answer. Joshua stayed. One of those two is how most of us pray… and it's costing us about 80% of what God had waiting in there. → WHAT DOES GOD ACTUALLY REQUIRE? He names it Himself in Leviticus 23, and it's one word most believers have never looked up. What it means in the Hebrew is nothing like what we've assumed it means. → WHAT ABOUT WHEN THE CONSEQUENCE IS ALREADY COMING? David already knew what it was going to cost him. He went low anyway. What he prayed in Psalm 51 is the standard, and it exposes what most of us are actually doing when we say we've repented. Listen, Sis… you've been wearing yourself out trying to fix what you broke. The walls can be rebuilt. But not by trying harder or utilizing some “hybrid” form of repentance (that isn’t really repentance anyways). Let’s lean into full surrender today and actually see this thing break. It’s time to go FREE. 📖 Scriptures Referenced: Leviticus 23:26-32 · 1 John 2:2 · Psalm 51 · 2 Samuel 12 · Hebrews 4 · Proverbs 25:28 · Jeremiah 33:3 · 1 John 4:18 🔗 RESOURCES + LINKS: 📖 Come Study the Book of Nehemiah with Me!

    Is it Biblical to Cut Someone Off? (What the Bible Says About Boundaries)

    #203 // Maybe you've got a person in mind. Someone who hurt you. Someone who drains you. And you're wondering if you're finally allowed to be done. You've drawn that line before. More than once. And they stepped right over it again. So, now you're asking God the question you've been circling for a while now:    Am I allowed to cut this person off? Here's where most of us get tangled up:  We've been taught that the point of a boundary is to protect ourselves. Get the toxic people out. Protect your peace. Cut them off and move on.  Sister, that's not the whole truth. And the piece that's missing is the reason your boundaries keep collapsing. Here's what we're getting into on this episode of the Positioned to Prosper Podcast: → AM I ALLOWED TO WALK AWAY? There are two very different things tangled up inside "cutting someone off," and God doesn't answer them the same way. Pulling them apart is what finally makes this question answerable. → WHY WON'T MY BOUNDARIES STICK? Every boundary you've ever set got built on top of something. There are only two options for what that something is… and one of them guarantees the line collapses. → WHAT DOES A BIBLICAL BOUNDARY EVEN LOOK LIKE? Not what most of us were handed. And once you see what it's actually supposed to be built on, you'll understand why enmeshment, codependency and manipulation could never get a grip on it. → IS GOD FOR ME OR FOR THEM? Joshua asked the commander of the Lord's army that exact question, standing outside Jericho. The answer came back in one word… and it wasn't either one. Your walls and your gates may have been burned down. That doesn't mean they can't be rebuilt. It means you get to build them right this time, in His presence, according to His word. 📖 Scriptures Referenced: Matthew 22:37-39 · Matthew 28:19-20 · John 13:35 · Matthew 5:44 · Psalm 139:23-24 · Joshua 5:13-15 · Nehemiah 2 🔗 RESOURCES + LINKS: 📖 Come Study the Book of Nehemiah with Me.  Monday nights at 7:00pm ET on Zoom.

    Is Anxiety a Sin? (What God Really Means by “Do Not Fear”)

    #202 // God says do not fear. But your heart's pounding, your stomach's in knots, and now you feel guilty about the anxiety on top of the anxiety. So is feeling it the sin? No, Sister. And in this week's episode of Positioned to Prosper, we're getting into how this actually works, both scripturally and physiologically. Here's where most of us get tangled up... We read "do not fear" and we hear "you're not allowed to feel afraid." So, every time our body reacts, we assume we've already failed. That's not what God is commanding.  The sensation of fear is going to come. But there's a difference between feeling fear and bowing to it, and once you can tell those two apart, obeying God on this stops feeling impossible. Here's what we're getting into: → IS IT A SIN THAT I'M AFRAID RIGHT NOW? The difference between the sensation of fear and agreeing with it, and why confusing those two has kept you condemned instead of free → WHEN THE VERSE STOPS "WORKING." What 2 Timothy 1:7 actually says in the Amplified, and what to do when a scripture you've quoted a hundred times has started to sound like white noise → WHEN YOUR BODY IS RUNNING THE SHOW. The window you get when fear first hits, what's happening physically, and how 2 Corinthians 10:5 works in real time instead of just in theory → GET THE WORD IN BEFORE YOU NEED IT. Why Joshua 1 tells us to meditate when we're calm, and what James means when he says the implanted word has power to save your soul Fear doesn't get the last say over your life. You don't have to be perfect to walk out of the anxiety, panic or foreboding that's been trying to have you. Lean toward Him, and watch how He starts leading you out. 📖 Scriptures Referenced: 2 Timothy 1:7 · 2 Corinthians 10:5 · Psalm 23:4-6 · Joshua 1:6-9 · James 1:21 · Isaiah 41:10 · Romans 8:26 🔗 RESOURCES + LINKS: Join me for ☀️ Get Ready with God, live weekday mornings at 7:30am ET: → Instagram: instagram.com/ericapyle → Facebook: ericapyle.com/BizFB Join us at REVIVE Church of Tampa:  ⛪️ Sundays at 11am · in person and online  📍 1803 N.

    The Kingdom of God is Within You (Here’s What That Actually Means)

    #201 // You feel it. That pull that says you were made to carry something significant. Something that matters. Something for God. Then you look at your actual Tuesday. The laundry, the inbox, the school pickup, the thing that didn't go the way you planned. And that feeling of significance gets real quiet. You start to wonder if you're doing enough, if any of it's even working, if the big thing God put in you is ever going to look like anything from the outside. If that's you, there's something in this week's episode of Positioned to Prosper that's going to take the pressure off completely. Because Jesus said the Kingdom of God isn't out there and it isn't someday. It's inside you, right now. And what's growing in there is bigger than you think. Here's what we're getting into: → WHY YOU CAN'T SEE IT. What Jesus meant in Luke 17 when He said the Kingdom doesn't come with observation, and why you've been searching the outside for something that lives on the inside → THE PRESSURE-RELIEF OF THE MUSTARD SEED. Why the smallest, most hidden, most ordinary-looking thing in you is the exact thing God grows into the biggest, and why you can stop trying to make yourself big enough to matter → YOU'RE THE SOIL. The reason your ordinary, everyday life isn't a disqualification, it's the whole design, and why the seed of the Kingdom needs a real woman living a real life to grow → YOU DON'T GET DISQUALIFIED FOR A BAD DAY. Why you don't lose your capacity to carry the Kingdom because you had a rough one, got it wrong, or were short with somebody, and the protection God built right in There's a whole ecosystem of life God wants to grow through the seed He planted in you. So the real question is, how are you going to steward the Kingdom that's already inside you? 📖 Scriptures Referenced: Luke 17:20-21 · Mark 4:30-32 · Joshua 1:8 · Matthew 13 · John 3 · John 15 🔗 RESOURCES + LINKS: Join me for Get Ready with God, live weekday mornings at 7:30am ET: → Instagram: instagram.com/ericapyle → Facebook: ericapyle.com/BizFB Join us at REVIVE Church of Tampa: ⛪️ Sundays at 11am · in person and online 📍 1803 N.

    Why the Strongest Women Break (And What to Do Instead)

    #200 // You're the strong one. The high-capacity one who holds it all together when everything's falling apart. But the very strength you've been relying on might be the thing most likely to break you. There's a better way to get through the storm you're in — and it's not gritting your teeth and holding on tighter. The night Hurricane Helene flooded our island, I lost my home and 80% of everything I owned. And in the middle of that storm, God showed me something about resilience I'd been getting wrong for 30 years of walking with Him. This message is what I learned. In this week's episode -- it's the message I shared this past week on Get Ready with God -- I'm walking you through the difference between being rigid and being grounded, and why one breaks in the storm while the other bends and springs right back up. Here's what we get into: → THE NIGHT I LOST EVERYTHING. The hurricane that flooded an island that had never flooded, and the moment God told me to ground myself before the water ever came in → THE OAK VS. THE PALM. Why the strongest tree on the island is the one that snaps in the storm, and what that has to do with the way you've been white-knuckling your way through hard seasons → THE SECRET IN THE ROOTS. How a palm tree with shallow roots outlasts a deep-rooted oak in a hurricane, and the community secret underground that keeps it standing → WHY RIGID ISN'T SAFE. What a car accident reveals about bracing for impact, and why the hypervigilance you've mistaken for strength is actually putting you at risk → ROOTED AND GROUNDED IN LOVE. How to become the palm tree — grounded, resilient, bending without breaking — not in your own strength, but by the power of the Spirit 📖 Scriptures Referenced: Ephesians 3:16-19 · Colossians 2:6-7 · Jeremiah 17:7-8 · Psalm 92 🔗 RESOURCES + LINKS: Join me for Get Ready with God, live weekday mornings at 7:30am ET: → Instagram: instagram.com/ericapyle → Facebook: ericapyle.com/BizFB Join us at REVIVE Church of Tampa: ⛪️ Sundays at 11am · in person and online 📍 1803 N.

    What the Enemy Says Right Before Your Breakthrough

    #199// There's a moment right before your breakthrough when everything in you wants to quit. If you're in it right now, do not believe what you're hearing. You know the voice. "I can't do this. It's too hard. This can't be God, because if it were, it wouldn't hurt like this." I said every one of those things during my own nervous breakdown this past February.  So hear me in this: That voice in your head is not a sign you've failed. It's a sign your breakthrough is closer than it has ever been. In the last episode we talked about how God's holy demolition is the first step of full restoration. This week we're getting into what happens in the "pregnant pause" — the space between the clearing out and the rebuilding, where the enemy makes his hardest play for your life, and where your real breakthrough gets decided. In this week's episode -- it's the message I shared this past Sunday at REVIVE Church of Tampa -- I'm walking you through the surrender that carries you all the way through to the other side. Here's what we get into: → THE LIES IN THE PAUSE. The exact coping mechanisms the enemy offers you in the space between demolition and restoration, and why hearing them means breakthrough is imminent → OFFENSE IS THE BAIT. How offense took Peter out, why it's really just a fear that you won't be safe, and how the way you handle it decides whether you walk into true restoration or an unholy demolition that only leads to more loss → SURRENDER, BUT NOT THE WAY YOU THINK. The mystery God revealed to me in my own suffering: you don't have to muster the willpower to surrender and stand. There's one decision underneath that one that makes all the rest possible → WHAT GETHSEMANE REVEALS. The offense that came even for Jesus, the couplet of surrender He prayed, and the strengthening heaven sends the moment you stop striving → HE'S PREPARING YOU TO REIGN. Why God built you to prosper through severe suffering, and what the wheat and the tares have to do with the pause you're standing in right now 📖 Scriptures Referenced: Isaiah 58:11-12 · Luke 22:31-46 · John 21 · 1 Peter 5:10 · 2 Timothy 2:11-12 · Ephesians 6:10-13 🔗 RESOURCES + LINKS: Join me for Get Ready with God, live weekday mornings at 7:30am ET: → Instagram: instagram.com/ericapyle → Facebook: ericapyle.com/BizFB Join us at REVIVE Church of Tampa: ⛪️ Sundays at 11am · in person and online 📍 1803 N.
