"Your Truth" vs "God's Truth"
"My Truth" , "Your Truth" popular terminology that encourages
that we embrace, accept, live, our own persuasion. As popular as
this teaching is, however, it's major flaw lies in the fact that
our persuasions are fueled by our experiences, individual
preferences, emotions, and circumstance. None of these are final
authorities, neither are they solely/ consistently reflective of
God.
When pursuing "Our Truth" where do we place God? and what do we
do when "God's Truth" directly opposes ours?
This week, Pastor Mrs. Valerie Charles Chike Nezianya gives us a
reality check about truth, and submitting our truth to the
authority of God.

It's common for people to attach labels and titles to each other.
These are often a reflection of how we see each other or the
significance and social/ relational status we have ascribed to
each other.
These days, it seems as if the introduction of new labels is
increasing. Whether positive or negative, these labels have the
potential to shape how we view ourselves and set expectations for
ourselves and others.
In the need to be accepted and recognised, many not only adopt
these titles and labels, they live in pursuit of them. With life
becoming almost a performance to be validated.
The danger lurking here is that true identities can become
blurred as individuals become engrossed in 'doing' and not
'being'.
As believers, some of the fundamental questions to be pondered
are:
Are the labels and titles you're aspiring to, a reflection of
your true identity?
By adopting these titles, who are you giving authority to define
you?
What really is the meaning behind these titles? Do they have a
Biblical reference? are they recognised by heaven?
Would God use these same titles to introduce you?
___
These are some of the questions we examined during this Couch
Conversation with Pastor Valerie Charles Chike Nezianya,
co-pastor of the Cornerstone African House of Praise, Singapore.

Even When We Feel Invisible Or Forgotten...God Sees
Us
She answered God by name, praying to the God who spoke
to her, “You’re the God who sees me! [El Roi] “Yes! He saw
me; and then I saw him!” (Genesis 16:13)
It's the only time we see God referred to by this name in the
Bible, which speaks to how profoundly intimate and personal the
encounter was. Here it was that Hagar, a mere maidservant,
despised and overwhelmed with despair, has an encounter with God
that helps her recognise that no matter how invisible or
insignificant she may be to the world, God still sees
her.
Our guest this week, Ms. Joanna Hioe, has a
conversation with our host - Kareem O J Lee,
about her own intimate encounters with The God Who Sees Us. She
highlights how, just as in the days of Hagar, God is still
touched by our individual struggles, and intentionally comes
alongside us with care and compassion, even in the obscure
places.
Joanna Hioe is a creative from Singapore, who has been uniquely
crafted by the Creator. Having experienced God's transforming
love, she seeks to express His wonders through words, songs, and
videos. She is currently pursuing a PhD focused on disaster
management. She loves a good adventure!

Über diesen Podcast
We create a safe space where women can be transparent about life's
hard truths. Some of the conversations are difficult ones, but they
are all real and relevant and so we sit down to have these
transparent, heart-to-heart discussions which provide women with
practical nuggets on how to navigate the real life issues they
encounter on their journey of faith. Whilst there are several
channels through which women can engage in dialogue, many still
long for the opportunity to go beyond the surface conversations and
Christian jargon. There are still women who desire the opportunity
to treat real life issues with transparency and truth. Who are
looking for practical, scripture-supported guidance for daily
living. It is these women that we are called to serve and for whom
Couch Conversations has been created.
