Real Talk With Rachael Podcast

Welcome to the first episode of 2024! Last year, God put it on my heart to dedicate the first month of this new year by hosting a “First Fruits” podcast series. We wrapped up our December Process and Pray series. If you missed it, you can still go back and listen. In this First Fruits podcast series, we will take every Monday and give the first of a different area of our lives to the Lord. The first area God put on my heart was our plans. Key verses: Proverbs 19:21, "You can make many plans, but the Lord’s purpose will prevail." Psalms 33:11, "But the plans of the Lord stand firm forever, the purposes of his heart through all generations." Giving our first shifts our plans to His purpose. We give Him our first plans by pausing to ask for wisdom and discernment before moving forward. It’s not complex and doesn’t require much time, but it does mean being intentional in our planning. Process: "God, what plans do I need to submit to You?" Think of a specific plan you have in mind. Ask God for His timing on moving
