I love learning about the biblical significance of my name

I had a dream last night and prayed to Jesus with someone naMed Lydia and the dirt road was purple. Never heard of a Lydia in my life and didn’t understand the purple in dream till I looked it up today. She led my prayer and Jesus came in as wind. Seems he loves her and she’s a very nice person.

Our daughter's name was inspired by God through my husband.
God saved me from addiction and gave me children. So, like Hannah (my other daughter's name, also inspired by God), and Isaac, our son. I dedicated my children to the Lord. God's grace in my life

Love the video! Showcases Holy Spirit’s powerful work to redeem and make us born again, such important truth of the Gospel! My friend, I am curious for more clarity on one thing you said: “But if not, here’s the key: we can actually rest, trusting that God has just a different greater plan for their life”. I interpreted this as: “God has a great plan that they are sinners and going to spend eternity, condemned and judged by Him, away from Him. God has a great plan of creating sinners.” Now, I want to be corrected if possible if I am assuming what you said wrongly. Thanks friend! Have a blessed day with Jesus!

I am learning about woman of prayer because I want to be a woman of prayer n I jus need help study about being a woman of prayer

Lydia was not a slave. Most likely a widow. Or just unmarried woman like Mary mother of Mark.

Thank you for another great teaching. Lydia was an amazing woman, and I love the way God used her.
In Jesus' words, is He saying that if they obey, they will be part of the first resurrection?

What do most all church goers agree on?
Women don't have to cover their heads. Is not covering their heads a Jezebel spirit ruling church goers?

I was with you until the middle of the video when you went on a brief soliloquy about not talking about women in ministry.
It might not have been your intention, but it came off as a "one doth protest too much" type of thing to come out and say, "I'm not gonna talk about that." The video would have been a 10-11 minute video without it. Thus, it was short enough to be unnecessary... unless the goal was to tell people not to find women in ministry in a story, at least marginally about... women in ministry 😉
