Click here to send Ryan a text message!Episode #298Ryan shares how the enemy can exploit even open doors that seem small to us and why we cannot leave them unaddressed. Watch this episode on YouTubeThe enemy is constantly looking for open doors to exploit in our lives. Even small compromises or offenses we harbor can give Satan a foothold.We must be vigilant about renewing our minds and searching our hearts to remove these hooks that weaken us spiritually. Any bitterness, lust, pride, or idolatry in our lives needs to be surrendered to God so that we can stand firm when the enemy attacks.Spiritual discernment and authority can be lost if we let compromises linger. By allowing God to prune and purify us, we close the doors that the enemy could use to pull us away from Christ. Staying close to Jesus, walking in obedience, and focusing on Him alone will strengthen us for the spiritual battles ahead.This teaching offers practical ways to guard our hearts and minds against the enemy’s schemes. The goal is to remove distractions and compromise so that NOTHING can come between us and God.Referenced interview with ex-satanist, James Kawalya, who encountered JesusSend Ryan an emailSharable Episode Links (scroll down or search for this episode):Ryan's Website Buzzsprout Link MORE FROM RYAN:FREE DOWNLOAD: 21 Days to a Spirit-Led Life Subscribe on YouTubeTwitter | Instagram | LinkedInSubmit a question or topic for the podcast at ryanshoward.com/contactGet Ryan’s eCourse & Coaching ProgramsSupport the show

Click here to send Ryan a text message!Episode #293In today's consumerist culture, the true meaning of Christmas is often forgotten - Jesus is the reason for the season. Jesus is the ultimate gift. Our joy should come from His presence, not just the presents under the tree.Ryan provides 3 miraculous reminders about Jesus this Christmas:Jesus' birth was prophesied hundreds of years in advance - over 300 prophecies exist about Jesus' life, death, and resurrection in the Old Testament.Christ's death and resurrection opens the door for us to have a relationship with God. When we repent and accept Jesus' sacrifice for our sins, we can have eternal life.The entire Bible is a picture book of Jesus, with people and events throughout pointing to the coming of the Messiah.Ryan also spotlights a Christmas display his wife made that keeps Christ at the center. It includes Bible verses, a manger scene, activities for kids, and reminders like "Jesus is the reason for the season."This Christmas, we need to remember that Jesus is the reason we celebrate. He deserves our focus more than consumerism and gift-giving. Christmas begins with Christ!Watch this episode on YouTubeSharable Episode Links (scroll down or search for this episode): Ryan's Website Buzzsprout Link MORE FROM RYAN: FREE DOWNLOAD: 21 Days to a Spirit-Led Life Subscribe on YouTubeTwitter | Instagram | LinkedInSubmit a question or topic for the podcast at ryanshoward.com/contactGet Ryan’s eCourse & Coaching ProgramsSupport the show
