It’s very simple: I see Stephanie Ike, I click “play”. Haha. She’s so anointed!

[@kinyamutai4052]

Same here sis.

[@lynnayebale5250]

Me too

[@alinafengindonyasulu999]

You know right

[@TheeGodchild]

Yeeesss “you don’t have to do bad stuff to make a testimony” it’s okay to never step out of God. That’s beautiful

[@Alltingzkaren]

When Brenda said “God will let you do it but he won’t let you be comfortable in it”. I felt that to my core. So many times I’ve done stuff and immediately after doing it I felt so much discomfort in my spirit

[@oscarmike1131]

that is powerful indeed

[@lolabolaji_]

I literally came here to say this...😭 I can't even explain the feeling, a tearing sadness you can't cry away, a conviction so strong you can't ignore. We thank God for His relentless pursuit!

[@Godslight1970s]

Thee truth. God's conviction is REAL 🙌🏾🙏🏾

[@Jiron127]

That's the holy spirit grieving

[@noble604]

It’s amazing how _THE I AM_ reaveals small and different aspects of Himself to each of us. We each have our own unique stories and encounters with Him to lead us to follow Jesus. That’s awesome.

[@godswarriornana5860]

Amen 💯

[@96400006jj]

I love In The Room. I wish I had friends like these ladies

[@quanlynn6128]

Exactly

[@niqued7828]

Same lol

[@tamanjiesther]

Same here... It's so refreshing

[@lolabolaji_]

Same sis...same! Bibles study sessions, testimonies and just scripture-based discussions 🥰

[@marielasalas9551]

Sistas, you all said you wish you had friends like this. Well guess what? We do and with the technology of zoom, you can all meet😍. God has placed people in your life, don't be afraid to reach out to others after praying so that God can direct you with other Anointed sisters to share God's love and goodness thru scripture, prayer and conversations like these! I say all of this cause when I was young, I had walls up cause I felt like a failure. I wanted nothing to do with church cause all I heard about was hell, not the love of God and His purpose for me. All of yous have what it takes, do it cause we are in the end times. God will use you to reach this lost generation! Blessings 🙏🏽❤️‍🩹

[@lisakalimashe5562]

I feel like I am always in awe of God, thank you guys so much. Sending love from South Africa , this is by far my fav series because it introduces me to more of God .

[@stephanielang5632]

"Anyone that does not follow Jesus, has not met him!" Beautiful! Yes, Mrs. Stephanie

[@dfholland88]

Thank for this. i felt that I was missing something because I didn't experience what others did. When I did follow the crowd my life became a mess. It is true God's grace has kept me.

[@Withlove.d]

This was so good ladies! When we learn to embrace our uniqueness we get to start living in our God given identity. Giving him the reverence and honor he so deserves

[@proverbs31mom99]

OMG 😳, that paralyzed demonic dream happened to me too when I was shacking with an old boyfriend! I plead THE BLOOD OF JESUS just like my Mama taught me. I’ve NEVER HEARD of anyone else experiencing that! 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

[@proverbs31mom99]

That was years ago, I’m now married, living righteous and NO LONGER having those types of awakening, paralyzing dreams.

[@purposedpeoplepraying]

We have to experience the darkness in order to truly understand the light of God and Christ being the light of the world.

[@priscillaxsafi]

I love how you said he always challenges you to your best self not in a form of selfishness, gossip and humour but with the holy spirit.

[@kiashahines20]

Thank you Holy spirit for leading me to this video. I definitely needed this. ... Something good was released as I watched this. Thank you Jesus.

[@CharityModest]

I follow him be cause he’s never failed me! On my darkest days he shows up within me and Along the side of me. I was facing 20 years on false allegations who showed up for me? God not my lawyer or anyone else simply him he knows my heart he will never forsake me Thank you God for all you have done for me! Im telling you now you better get to know him if you don’t!!

[@godswarriornana5860]

The Holy Spirit will always guide you🔥💯thank you Queen for that gem

[@nanatiah567]

My daughter is 7 and she pray like God taught her. So at 6 or 7 we can’t limit these kids God used them like crazy.

[@travis_km]

Everyone’s unique stories just gives me more motivation in my relationship with God. Amen 🙌🏾

[@Flo2Litt]

All I can say ladies… thank you 😭🥲 I am going to be myself from now on. There is so much freedom in knowing that I have testimony in not doing the bad/negative things. ♥️♥️🙏🏽🙏🏽

[@Jasmyne444]

“When you feel like you’re an outsider, find community…” THIS 👏🏽 is the Word God had for me. Following Jesus as a young person can feel lonely but it shouldn’t be…thank you ladies for reminding us. 🥰

[@SybilMbadiwe]

Choosing to follow Jesus is the best decision ever. Thank you Lord for laying your life that I may have life.

[@allanhall7870]

I had a VERY similar experience, years ago in my mid 20's, woke up like 1am in the morning and couldn't move, couldn't fully open my eyes, I could see my tv on, fan turning, streetlights through the blinds, but surrounded by like 6 dark shadows with red eyes just making crazy noises. I tried saying Jesus help me, but could barely get it out, but once I was able to say Jesus help me, they vanished and I was able to move again. 🙏🏾, crazy to hear a story so similar. God bless yall

[@happinessreed5957]

Allan my brother listen to Pastor Robert Clancy,he has a teaching on sleep paralysis and deliverence prayers. I encourage you to renounce and denounce anything that you may have opened yourself to that is not of God as this opens doors. Fast,repent and read the bible to feed your spirit and be strong. God loves you and you are a value to him. Jesus is with you and for you. John 10.10

[@TyGee777]

This is very Rich, FULL OF TRUTH! The work of God amazes me. Thanks all for the testimonies! Yall definitely give me hope moving beyond my trauma and trust issues. And yall are hilarious!!! And I'm struggling with the weed but I know it's a counterfeit. I will overcome by surrendering. Thank you guys. This was definitely worth watching for both non- believer's and believer's.

[@deivorygray9898]

This group of women is so powerful , there’s so much knowledge amongst them. I truly enjoy starting my days watching them and finding myself relating to their stories and no longer feeling alone or isolated or like my story is unreal. They definitely help you to realize that our journeys are all authentic to us individually and upbringings which is comforting and inspiring. I’ve always said that same thing Stephanie said “ppl who don’t serve God/Christ is because they haven’t encountered Him.” After my own encounter and experience with Him and Him meeting me where I was, there was absolutely no way I could live my life without Jesus. I knew from that moment on that ever other time in church or church functions that it was just a taste of what my mom had experienced. I knew that “this” life event was mandatory for me to have my own genuine and authentic connection which was the catapult into my full on relationship with Christ.

[@wynonnanagbe35]

An hour episode. Let's go ❤️🙏🏾

[@WeAreRoyalty7]

I pray everyone can receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit 🙏🏽

[@jinad9099]

They ladies are what I needed. I have been wanting to discuss things like this but no one to talk to about it. Dude I wish I had friends like this

[@kristeng.4241]

This was great! Thank y’all 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 I have never heard somebody compare their highs and say the devil’s high is a counterfeit. That really clicked for me.

[@yabidemissie7270]

This blessed me so much. Since coming to Christ. I always had fear to share my story bc I felt my story wasn’t good enough. So it’s okay to be different and unique

[@tinasiajohnson6444]

This was meant for me to see. Being that I travel from state to state for work and I'm hardly ever home. My coworkers try to put their lifestyle on me. We're living in hotels year after year and we're young so what do they do? Have sex. That's something I stay away from and normally it's very easy for me when I'm back home. But being on the road in these hotels, surrounded by people my age doing their thing and constantly telling me I need to get laid or find someone is uncomfortable. I recently started to feel like I'm missing out or I'm the weird one. I'm in Texas for 5 months for work so it's been a bit tempting but I know the long term consequences and THAT alone is enough for me to say NO! I just had to separate myself from the bunch and stay in my hotel room and read my Word. I'm reading the book of Numbers and it's keeping me :) Thanks for this message ladies

[@camillebineyard3926]

I've never felt seen until now. Thank you for your honesty and brilliant conversations.

[@ulricka2131]

Love love love all the testimonies and of course my sister Caitlin! Your obedience shows that it is possible, with the grace of the Lord. 🙏🏾😍❤️

[@godswarriornana5860]

Amen💯

[@TheThemisskitty49]

Wowwie the conversation is sooooo awesome. My Mom said to me years ago before she passed... I didn't think you had a relationship with God. And I'm like do disrespect but it wasn't none of your business. That's private MAMA. I know he's the reason why I'm still here to take care of you. ❤️🙌🏾

[@WeAreRoyalty7]

I just love Stephanie she’s so smart an God bless them sister’s 💜

[@godswarriornana5860]

It activates this cry for Jesus🔥 that part

[@LazyLadyy]

Night terrors we’re terrorizing me for years. I started to slowly imagine a bright light, Jesus and call upon God to help me because I remember a friend telling me that. Following Jesus has been the only thing that provided me peace and salvation from the terrors. This confirmed my recent questions for God. I wanted to know if I was saved regardless of being baptized or in the church. I love my online churches but no local church I feel pulled to. Thank you for letting me know that all I need to do is believe with all my heart and that I do. Here’s a woman who had no background in Christianity and just hungering to learn about Jesus. Thank you for the community.

[@powelluka882]

I appreciate you guys so much, the help that is being received is so great. I love the how you speak the full truth and help us realise that what we go through with God is actually normal and makes us to welcome him and build with him even more and easier. Keep letting God do what he does best and being a blessing for others 🤞🏽🙏🏾❤️

[@kudakwashemususa858]

Seeing this made me realize that I’m not the only one who experiences spiritual warfare and it doesn’t mean something is wrong with me

[@fruitofthespiritgalatians5856]

Wow, these young people here!!! Amazingly displaying God. They are true vessels. I'm older and I knew of God at a very young age and they are spot on with the truth of God. I was a straight shooter and the enemy told me I needed to go create a testimony for God. Nope, wrong. Yes, the holy spirit always wanted to be the better version of what he wanted me to be and do. I have fell back in line and still learning to walk with the Lord!!

[@simplebeauty7170]

I just found this channel not too long ago and I absolutely love the conversations that I am hearing!

[@tiondraellis2725]

I love this conversation, stop trying to fit in let others fit into your life. People act like it’s a crime if your not drinking smoking or hanging out but they don’t think twice about say No about coming to Church with you or come to a function with you were people are turning up for Jesus

[@marielasalas9551]

Love everyone's story, the encouragement, the love for Christ and the intimacy, this is much needed for this generation! I grew up in Brooklyn where everything you did, God was gonna send you to hell so I strayed and did everything I was told not to. It's in my latter years thru trials and heart breaks that now, I have an intimate relationship with Jesus. I have no regrets as God still has a purpose and will work all things together for my good! Blessings 💯💪🏾🙏🏽💟

[@shan5986]

So happy to hear your different journeys and experiences with God I can relate in soo many ways. I serve God because in him I am better, because I tried not serving him already and I saw how far I can go when I no longer have him leading, teaching, growing me and being lord over my life. Who wouldn't serve a God like this knowing him the way I keep getting to know him.

[@The_Quansahs]

I love these ladies!! Beautiful women of God inside and out! God bless you sisters in Christ and thank you for living out your purpose ❤️

[@rayoflighttvpodcast]

BEST DECISION YOU CAN EVER MAKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Love Jesus

[@Maria-006.]

Love you Guys 🥰 Always so good 🙏🏻

[@ShelbyAlexis1]

God opening your eyes to the spiritual realm that activates this cry for Jesus is exactly what happened to me in college. In my dorm room it was just a demonic energy and when I cried out to God, Jesus met me there

[@_santos_kimberly]

Keep this coming because this is too good and needed 🙏🏽🙌🏽

[@chawonda]

Wow!! Caitlin, I don’t know why God put your name in my dream, not once but twice. I know it sounds crazy but I wouldn’t be doing the Holy Spirit justice if I kept it to myself. I pray God reveals He message that he wants me to share with you. Until then, I speak amazing love, grace and peace! Maybe it’s for a different Caitlin but…

[@enseiamashiach3498]

This conversation is so needed right now!! I absolutely LOVE y’all’s transparency and vulnerability in this!! It’s definitely helping me to continue on in what God is calling me to!

[@Chanfb915]

Wow thank you all so much for this video. So much I could say but I will say most importantly thank everyone for stirring up what has been stagnant in my walk. 👍👏

[@godswarriornana5860]

Amen🙌🏾😭 thank you Queens for this well needed message God bless y’all🤍

[@OluwaKemiOyewole-PBLLC]

Awesome ladies. Stay rooted

[@jenniferrivera8627]

Just beautiful how God reveals himself to us all in different ways and just has the perfect timing. Thank God for our mothers teaching us to know the devil is always out to get us.

[@jenniferrivera8627]

I can relate to Brenda always wanting more as a young girl but still stepping out into the world but still seeking God. His pull on my life has always been present

[@cpalmer0903]

Y'all are so awesome! Keep up the godly work!!👏🏾👏🏾🙌🏾

[@TheTruth-Chanel]

I follow Jesus because He is real, He is merciful, compassionate. He is loving, He understand my needs because he was there, he is the power that gets me going every single day. He loves unconditionally, he accepts me the way I am with all my flaws. 🥰

[@JassyFaith]

These are so good. I know as a Christian I lack community, but I lean on my family until otherwise.

[@marvelousmarvin4th]

Ya'll aren't in the room, ya'll are the room! From Caitlin's thorn in the flesh, Stephanie's angelic visitation, Brenda's supernatural healing and Fatima's intellectual revelations of God. Are the hallmarks of God's Annointed. This is nothing but the TRUTH!!!

[@quanlynn6128]

Amen

[@crystallight328]

Can you do a episode on why crystals are mentioned in the Bible & what they were used for ? I did some research & found out that crystals were mentioned in the Bible & were used. I also hear Christians tell us we are not allowed to use crystals so if that’s the case why are they mentioned in the Bible? I feel like as Christians we are sometimes so quit to cast anything anything as witchcrafts or evil out without doing research & finding an understanding. Thank you for your patience and time.

[@adelefahm]

Adultery, murder etc were mentioned I the bible, does that make them right?

“The more you practice who you’re not, the more you become who you’re not.” - Stephanie Ike

[@oneandonly3139]

I can relate to Stephanie's story. I had a dream recently where I saw a being with that same transparent skin but I describe it as crystal skin with a bluish white crisp light eminating from Inside and it was one of the most beautiful things I've seen. In that Dream a "presence" asked me if I wanted to see God's shadow. And I was like... Even God's shadow is something to be excited about? And then I turned around and I've never seen such a beautiful shadow. It was almost physical. It was an ombre of translucent gold, a silky white bright light and a crisp crystal. I was shocked that his shadow was not black like ours. And then there was this bright light.... The light had texture to it. And it was moving all around. This was the most beautiful dream I everrrrr had.

[@cpalmer0903]

Wooow! That's beautiful

[@mcqueeny-gloriakavari546]

I was sleeping and I encountered dark spirits through my sleep more like a nightmare., a few moments later watching KZbin videos , i clicked onto this video. I believe the holy spirit led me to this video and i needed to hear your stories to know that its okay to be different and to follow and trust God. This video convicted me to fully surrender and believe in God. I appreciate these conversations in this age & times we live in.. Thank you ladies for such genuine and transparent conversation.

[@jamie1879]

I find that when I get deeper into prayer, closer to Jesus is always the time when I encounter demonic attacks in my dreams...it's crazy
