EP 19: Insightful Truths (Ft. John Bevere)

Join me, Megan Ashley, as I sit down with the awe-inspiring John Bevere, a man whose profound teachings have significantly shaped my journey. Together, we explore the transformative power of truth in our lives, particularly through John's impactful book, "The Bait of Satan." Listen in as we discuss the art of navigating offenses with grace and how these challenges can actually lead to growth and maturity in our personal and spiritual lives. John's insights on marriage, parenting, and communication illuminate the enduring strength found in forgiveness and the beauty of reconciliation, regardless of life's inevitable hurdles.
Throughout this episode, you'll hear candid stories from my own life, including the emotional turmoil during my divorce and the eventual healing through embracing John's teachings. We tackle the sometimes uncomfortable emotions of anger and offense towards God, considering the maturity it takes to comprehend divine sovereignty. The conversation takes a heartfelt turn as we consider the parallels between God's love for us and the unconditional love parents feel for their children. Furthermore, we contemplate the necessity of living with an eternal perspective, inspired by the unwavering faith I've witnessed firsthand.
Other topics you will hear:
-Offense
-Forgiveness
-Reconciliation
-Betrayal
-Relationships
-Grace
-Love
-Eternal Perspective
-Faith
-Discipleship

Megan, you’re literally living in what you said you could only dream of doing. God is answering your wildest prayers on your OWN platform! 🙏🏽

[@WorthTh3Wait]

Girl you got John Bevere?! How amazing, his wisdom and teaching is truly a gift to this generation 🙏🏾

[@crystalj3617]

Righhhtttt!!!

[@makaya_nichols]

fr !

[@AyannaKay]

Girl that’s what I was coming on here to say. Like wow !!

[@heykanhey]

My exact thoughts!!! I immediately clicked!

[@Iamtamika1]

😮 right!

[@racquelflowers940]

THEE JOHN BEVERE?! Omg. So proud of you Meg! Thank you so much for continually saying yes to God! ☺️

[@micsop1107]

Wow! I love this!! I remember when I had something against my supervisor who had been treating me badly. I had 3 baby mouths to feed and I could not just leave. I was bending the Lord's ear talking about her and how I was feeling. The Lord laid in my spirit to pray for her, and of course, I was not feeling that. I was driving home and out of my mouth I started asking God to bless her, save her, protect her, etc. I kept saying it because this is what The Lord told me to and I knew that was the right thing to do, but I was not feeling it. Then tears started to roll down my face and I started feeling this release... this is when my mouth and my heart came in agreement! And I've been free from that bondage towards her ever since! Praise God!

[@helloprincess]

thank you for this

[@butterflyfrancis]

I loved when megan said. He was my savior. But not my lord This is me. I have to regroup here. I want him in charge over every aspect of my life. 😢

[@Othdot]

JOHN BEVERERRR.......NO WAY I'm loving the direction of this channel / podcast my goodness. The obedience is opening my heart so much wow. I can't wait to watch this!

[@airencrazyfaith]

When he said finish well, I was in tears. I ordered the book!

[@yannimabes154]

Why was I literally praying that you would talk to John Bevere one day? I haven’t even watched the video yet, but I know I’m about to be blessed. I have chills running down my body.

[@judithcovers]

I’m one of those “listeners” to podcast where I don’t watch the visuals…but this one right here, I had to come see!! Words from Megan Ashely has been a pivotal point in my faith over this past year drawing me nearer to God. And one of those most influential moments is her also sharing about John Bevere whom I now listen to & read on my own. Seeing them together was the butter to my bread this morning! ☀️

[@zmlifestyleus]

this is how I feeling

[@Kaytjackson]

When he said "I've fasted, I've forgiven by faith" but was still hard whewwww Lord Jesus

[@sixteen.candles.4644]

Girl that part!!! Wheww

[@charadams6345]

That had me!!!! Because no one EVER admits that part! Amazing

[@pinkdiamonds797]

I am so grateful for the both of you ❤. Thank you please pray for me and my family that we come to Christ.

[@KP_FruitsoftheSpirit]

I had a dream about his book. In my dream. I was listening to this device. Then, I couldn't turn it off or lower the volume, but it kept playing without batteries. So, I told myself God is telling me to listen to this bòok. So I bought it and audio it too. I'm noticing the people that God is stewarding in my life. Funny, but I prayed for those honest, bold, and radical for Christ's personality. Thank you, Lord❤️🙏🏼🙌🏼

[@AB24Shine]

"If I choose love, I choose God, I choose truth, then any suffering I go through is for redemptive purposes". Wow wow wow. That is so freeing.

[@Geekygirlsjournal]

You told Tim Ross that you wanted to meet him and look..God is wonderful!

[@taneekajanelle]

I have watch this twice already. I've learned so so so much more !! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you for your obedience. I thought I was excited for him being on the podcast for others. Then GOD put a demand on my heart instantly. Live for eternity, like literally live now for eternity. Man so much to digest this episode. So good! GOD I want to finish well!

[@lemogangmonnahela9091]

I've watched/listened 3-4 times already, cs I been dealing with offense. I am definitely getting the Eternity in mind book.

[@SHE.Intuition]

Megan!!! This brought me to tears! The amount of Joy and excitement I feel for you and for continuing to strengthen my relationship with Christ! I just want to say Thank You! You are truly a blessing in my life and the lives of others. I’m learning sooooo much from you and the many absolutely amazing guests that have graced your podcast! I’m so grateful to be apart of your community and will continue to not only support, but to also share the good news of Jesus Christ! Thank you for encouraging me to dig deeper in my faith and understand when more is given, more is required! I love you my Sister in Christ, and pray God continues to keep you and bless you abundantly! Thank you again!

[@yvonnelarkin4572]

Meagan Ashley I love your podcasts full of truth and authenticity. So life changing, thank you so so much. Keep doing what you are doing, in Jesus's name.

[@ourbreakthroughpodcast9353]

Wow, and the way he just blessed you!! It made me think of Jacob of wrestling with God and wouldn’t let go until “you bless me.” Even with a limp hip and probably broken and battered, Jacob was transformed and made brand new; and with a new name, Israel.

[@fijiLEwA93]

I am literally crying whilst on a flight, watching this 😢❤ just the message I needed to hear. I will be ordering this book ASAP. Thank you both & thankyou Papa God ❤ - Brisbane, Australia.

[@QueenTahdee]

If it wasn’t for you Meghan I wouldn’t have found this book. I’m in my season of Gods calling on my life. This book is changing my life. So thank you 🫶🏽🙌🏽 It’s amazing how God uses us. Blessings!

[@ShawnaJaee]

When Meg spoke of the Bait of Satan on her previous podcast I added it to my Amazon Cart almost immediately. While watching this podcast today I decided to follow through with purchasing it. I went browsing through the different book editions and recognized one of the covers. My mom gave me the book when I was in college and it’s been sitting on my self ever since. 😮 I am shook. God is good; He knew I would need this book at this exact moment and He made sure I had it in my arsenal. Glory to God.

[@FeliciaCrabbe]

I almost screamed when I saw this. I am very proud of you Megan. God is really using you for mighty things ❤

[@JesusisEnough37]

Omg. Thank you Holy Spirit for always directing me. I needed to hear this. Thank you.

[@cyndrekak]

Megan, the way that God is going to bless you within the next year is about to be astounding (speaking to millions of people). He's going to continue to use you as a vessel for His glory. I pray for God's protection over you and your family as you continue to grow.

[@lemogangmonnahela9091]

This Episode challenged me so much as it relates to offense & going to the offender to address the issue, like I can't unhear the truths that were shared and it's not that I didn't know most of it but when something is highlighted like that then you realize you are responsible for what you do with the revealed truth. I'll definitely be rewatching this. This word is definitely medicinal and like fire that refines.

[@racquelflowers940]

I mean…… wow😭 This was an amazing episode 😌 God was moving in this conversation!!

[@therealzareej]

I am a silent listener . I come to get fed . This man said , “ The way we live as believers determines how we’re going to spend eternity.” As a believer for as long as I have lived , this idea of heaven has never been taught. This is what needs to be taught in the church. The idea of judgement was a fear that I couldn’t imagine but this idea has allowed me to understand God’s word differently. You ask for wisdom and God leads you this podcast. Whole time I had this man’s book in my cart on Amazon not realizing this was THE guy !

[@shaquellaennis]

Me too read Good or God and I was reborn shortly after! Saw in live in the Awe of God Tour 🙌🏾 Lisa will be in CT for the LOV conference this year so excited! I am so thankful for the Bevere’s 💕

[@THEPEERPATH]

I love this for you! I downloaded his book because of you Megan and I know i needed it

[@afuanieto4438]

This is powerful. It’s like you became a little girl. This speaks to me on so many levels. Thank you.

[@chandiamond8546]

Megan!!!! I love this for you and the way God is using you! He opened doors for you that would not have been possible if you didn't go through what you did!

[@allthingsmai6407]

Lord why am I crying?!!!!! This was SOOOOO GOOD!!!!!!!! Whew!!!!!! ❤

[@MishGabs2103]

I cried like a baby 😢. This really touched me. Thank you John and Megan

[@shashao]

[@TherapeuticallySound]

[@sixteen.candles.4644]

[@Naturally_Ang]

God led me to this video and I am grateful. My friend and colleague recently purchased the Bait of Satan for me to read and I'm down to the last two chapters and it's been such a blessing to me and so life changing, especially in the season that I am in right now. I know that it was meant for me to read and watch this video for such a time as this, for this journey that God is leading me.

[@Majisty]
