#230 UNSEPARATED

The religious leaders just heard the news — Jesus is risen. So they bribe the guards, spread a lie, and use every political connection they have to bury it.None of it works.In this episode we’re in Matthew 28:11–15 looking at three ways people try to move God — bribery, dishonesty, and policy — and why every single one fails. Because you cannot stop what God has already done.If God is immovable, then in Christ, neither are you.FREE EPISODE STUDY GUIDE: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1qZLhLS1UDeuIDtlhr-AG36UQa9YGmgKt/view?usp=share_linkListen, support and study more at amenpodcast.com Get full access to Amen Podcast at amenpodcast.substack.com/subscribe

Your enemies sealed the tomb. God still opened it.Alex teaches Matthew 27:62-66 and reveals 6 characteristics of the enemy — fake, flippant, feeble, fickle, futile, and fallible — and why understanding them protects you from blaming yourself when people come against you. Nothing the enemy does can derail what God has already ordained. Not a seal. Not a guard. Not a lie. Lokelani closes with a raw, honest reflection on fear of man and what it looks like to actually let go. Nothing is wasted. AMENPODCAST.COM
