As we close out 2025, this special final episode of Elevate the Day is a moment to pause, reflect, and give thanks for the grace of God that has carried us through every season.

• The journey of faith begins with a simple but powerful response: saying yes to God. When He calls us, He also equips us. Even when the path feels uncertain, taking steps in faith opens the door for God to work in ways we could never accomplish on our own.

• God often brings people alongside us to encourage, strengthen, and support us along the way.

• The fruit of your labor doesn’t always appear immediately, but perseverance is key. God’s plan for your life is good and staying faithful even when it’s hard positions you to see His promises come to pass.

As we wrap up the year, we want to extend a heartfelt thank you to our listeners, guests, and sponsors. Your support, prayers, and partnership made Elevate the Day possible in 2025. We are deeply grateful for each of you and look forward to all God has in store ahead.

Stay faithful. Keep trusting. And never forget that God’s grace is at work in your life…every day.

In the hustle and bustle of the holiday season, it's easy to get caught up in the imagery of the baby Jesus, the humble beginnings of our Savior.

However, as in today's Elevate The Day podcast episode, we want to remind you that it is crucial to remember that Jesus did not remain a baby; He grew up to fulfill a divine purpose.

Key Takeaways:

• Jesus grew from a baby into a Savior with a purpose, reminding us of the importance of growth in our own lives.

• Limiting our understanding of Jesus restricts our faith and the blessings He has for us.

• Keeping our focus on Jesus helps us navigate life's challenges and strengthens our faith.

• Daily engagement with Scripture and prayer is essential for spiritual growth.

As we celebrate this holiday season, let us remember to keepour eyes on Jesus, reflect on our blessings, and continue to nurture our faith each day.

In this powerful episode, we welcome Rev. RayGene Wilson for an uplifting conversation on what it really means to catch the Spirit of faith.

Every believer has been given a measure of faith, but it’s what we choose to do with that measure that transforms our lives.

Rev. RayGene shares how our words play a crucial role in shaping our destiny. Because our words are creative and carry spiritual weight, it is vital that we speak truth—God’s truth.

Even when our feelings tell a different story, we can choose to say what God says about us. Feelings come and go, but God’s Word stands firm forever.

Together, we explore the powerful connection between the heart and the mouth, reminding us that faith grows when we align our words with Scripture, not with emotions. When we consistently declare God’s promises, we set our hearts and lives on a path of victory.

Key Takeaways:

• Every believer has been given a measure of faith. How you choose to use it determines your results.

• Words are creative and powerful; what you speak influences your life.

• Speak God’s truth about yourself, even when you don’t feel it.

• Feelings are temporary, but God’s Word is eternal.

Tune in and be encouraged to activate your faith, align your words with God’s promises, and step confidently into the life He has designed for you.

In today’s encouraging episode, Jennifer and Karen dive into one of the most common questions believers ask: Does God really hear my prayers?

The answer is a resounding yes and this conversation will help you strengthen your confidence in God’s faithfulness and His desire to respond to His children.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode

• God absolutely hears you. No prayer is too small, too simple, or too complicated for Him.

• Study God’s Word for what you’re believing for. Prayer is powerful but pairing it with Scripture builds your faith.

• Believe you receive when you pray. Faith doesn’t wait for the answer to show up before believing. It receives at the moment of prayer.

• Wait with gratitude and expectation. How we wait matters. A thankful, expectant heart honors God and keeps us aligned with His promises while the answer unfolds.

Tune in to be encouraged, uplifted, and reminded that God is always listening.

"For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says. Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them." (Mark 11:23-24 NKJV)

In this episode of Elevate the Day, we ask an important question: What’s your Red Sea?

We all face moments when we feel trapped by life’s challenges with no way forward and no way back. But just like God parted the waters for the Israelites, He will make a way for you too.

Today we share how to navigate your own “Red Sea moments” with faith instead of fear. We need to remember that Jesus is with us in every trial and that we can find strength and victory when we stay rooted in His Word.

There’s no power in a pity party—only in God’s promises!

Learn how to prepare your heart before the storm hits so you can walk in peace, confidence, and victory through every challenge life brings.

Key Takeaways:

• Everyone faces their own “Red Sea” moments, but God always provides a way through.

• Jesus never leaves us. He’s with us in every trial.

• There’s no victory in a pity party. Focus on God’s promises instead.

• Preparation is key: stay in the Word, speak God’s truth, and stay in faith.

• When you’re spiritually prepared, you’ll walk through the trial with victory.

“Do not be afraid. Stand still, and see the salvation of the Lord…” (Exodus 14:13–14 NKJV)

We are all called to share the love of Christ, not just with words, but through genuine care, compassion, and connection.

Tune in as Julie discusses how seeing people for who they truly are, seeking out those in our circles who need encouragement, and showing love in simple yet powerful ways can open hearts to the Gospel.

In this thought-provoking episode of Elevate the Day, we explore the timeless question: Is seeing really believing?

Many people struggle to trust in what they can’t see, but faith calls us to believe in the unseen God who reveals Himself through His Word, His creation, and His works in our lives.

We’re reminded that just because we can’t see God in the flesh doesn’t make Him any less real. Jesus came to show us exactly who God is: His love, His compassion, and His power.

When we follow Jesus’ example and trust God’s Word as absolute truth, our lives begin to transform.

As we take time to notice all that God has done for us, given to us, and continues to do, our eyes are opened to His presence everywhere.

Key Takeaways:

• Faith means believing in God even when we can’t see Him.

• Jesus is the visible example of the invisible God.

• God’s Word is absolute truth and when we live by it, we walk in freedom and purpose.

• We get to know God by reading and meditating on His Word.

Let this episode encourage you to open your spiritual eyes and see how real and active God truly is in your life.

Tune in to be inspired to believe before you see because when you do, you’ll see God everywhere.
