Sick Women

It’s common today to see women fight in the military, hold political office, and work jobs formerly dominated by men. But 2,000+ years ago, women had few rights and little worth in society. That didn’t matter to Jesus—He had a heart for women, and it’s shown in every conversation and interaction He had with them. 

Jill’s series teaches about women in the Bible who spent time with Jesus. But if you go deeper, you’ll discover its real lesson—no matter what your story is or where you’ve come from, no matter if you’ve lived a good life or made mistakes, every woman (every human for that matter!) has the same thing in common. We all need a Savior. 

Single? Suffering? Sorrowful? Sinful? Then listen closely and hear how much you are valued and loved by God’s son.

Mary of Nazareth, mother of Jesus, was the best woman that ever graced this earth. Good, so good, but not good enough to get into heaven without the Savior she bore.

How do you survive hard times and even flourish in your relationship with God? Jill Briscoe teaches about how our relationship with the Lord can be strengthened because of—and during—hard times.

We learn in Scripture how God wrestled Jacob to the ground one night and turned him upside down - so he could live right-side up. Jacob became a “prince” with God instead of a pain. When we’re suffering the consequences of our own poor choices; when we’re bearing the brunt of someone’s vengeance and anger; when we feel absolutely on our own and life is not working out as planned, that’s when God will turn up. He wants to walk down the stairway of heaven right into our hearts to make us aware of His personal interest and concern.

In Bible times, when a person had leprosy, they would use rags to cover their open sores because they were very contagious. In the book of Isaiah, it says that all of our righteous acts are like filthy rags—like the unclean rags used by people with leprosy. So if our good acts can never be righteous to God, then how can we live in Heaven? In this message, Jill teaches about our Jehovah Sidqenu, which means “Jesus is my righteousness.” She lets us know how we can be righteous in God’s eyes.

Sheep rely on their shepherd to love them, lead them, and give them food and water. In this same way, we can depend on the Lord to be our shepherd, and he will love us, lead us, and provide nourishment for our soul. In this message, Jill talks about God as our Jehovah Ro’i, or shepherd, so we can know what wonderful things God provides for us, His sheep.

Where is God when bad stuff happens? That’s a question so many of us have asked ourselves when nothing’s gone right, when someone has died, or when we’ve suffered a broken relationship. Jehovah Shalom means “the God of peace,” and it describes the perfect balance in God’s nature and the tranquility He can bring us. In this message, Jill teaches on how we can know God as our Jehovah Shalom, so we can know how to experience His peace in the midst of life’s chaos.

A bad temper, a constant desire to overindulge on brownies, or a tendency to not trust God are all examples of battles we can face from time to time. This battle of the flesh will always exist, but it's God's battle not ours. In this message, Jill explains how we can know God as our Jehovah Nissi, or our banner, so that we can rely on Him to win our battles.

Bitterness, anger, disappointment, and sadness are all feelings that can cause us to have a bad attitude, and we can feel stuck in that frame of mind. But when we let Him, God can heal our soul, spirit, and body. In this message, Jill talks about God as our Jehovah Rophe, or healer, and lets us know what amazing things can happen when we let God heal our attitude.

In Genesis, God asked Abraham to go to Mount Moriah to sacrifice his son, Isaac. Abraham obeyed God and took Isaac up the mountain. On the way, Isaac kept asking his father what they would be sacrificing. When it became clear what was happening, Isaac obeyed his father—even though he was probably very frightened. Are you like Isaac, willing to be a sacrifice for God? In this message, Jill helps us understand God as our Jehovah-Jireh, our provider, so we can learn to be committed to God's plan.
