The Wonder-Working Power of God

Share episode

Have you ever experienced a miracle so profound that words fail? That's exactly where I've been living these past few weeks—immersed in testimonies of divine healing, resurrections, and heavenly encounters that have utterly transformed my faith walk.

These aren't just feel-good stories; they're divine invitations into deeper faith. When we witness God's supernatural power—whether through physical healing, emotional restoration, or literal resurrection—we're reminded that the God of the Bible is actively working wonders today. These miraculous accounts serve as powerful signs that awaken believers to realms of God's ability we often acknowledge but haven't fully embraced experientially.

Your testimony carries similar power. Revelation 12:11 tells us believers overcome "by the blood of the Lamb and the word of their testimony." When you share how God has worked in your life, you create a bridge for others to believe He can do the same for them. Someone is silently suffering right now, desperate for hope that change is possible—and your story might be exactly what they need to hear.

This spiritual awakening has coincided with a significant shift in my own ministry. After leaving my corporate job last October, I heard the Lord say "Be gathering"—a directive I initially misinterpreted, but which He clarified as a call to focus on gathering souls. With the conviction that Christ's return is imminent, I'm temporarily laying down aspects of my business to prioritize reaching those who don't know Him. As Jesus taught in Matthew 6:33, when we seek first His kingdom, everything else falls into place.

Has this message stirred something in your heart? Whether you're hearing about God's healing power for the first time or feeling called to share your own testimony, I'd love to hear from you. Follow me on social media @Yvonne.Paschal to join this journey of faith, healing, and purpose as we await Christ's return.

Speaker 1:

Hey friends, welcome back to the Be In His Purpose podcast. I'm Yvonne Paschal and I'm so glad that you're here tuning into this episode. I know it's been a little while since I've been on or made a new episode and I just want to thank everyone all who are tuning in still to the podcast and who are still going back and listening to old episodes. But I do want to take a moment to share why you know why I've been away for a little while. But first I want to talk about something that's been stirring in my heart and you know, in these last few weeks through and this is part of you know what I've been doing but in the last few weeks I have been listening and being able to share, but listening to some absolutely miraculous healing stories. Healing stories and they're stories that are just so supernatural. They literally just, you know, you just sit there in awe like my God, like he is so powerful, so great, so wonderful. But I've been, I've literally been listening to these and watching some of these healing stories. Miraculous healing stories, you know, stories of physical healing, stories of resurrection, resurrecting power, where people are coming back to life, stories of people who died, went to heaven, shared their experience of what heaven was like, actually seeing Jesus like these types of stories. I've been, I've had the privilege to listen to some of these and I'm blown away. I am blown away, um, I I am changed, like it has changed me and impacted me in my journey and where the Lord has me in such a great way. And you know, and this can only come from the hand of god. We know this, but every single time I hear one of these stories, it just blows me away. It's truly amazing at the, the wonder working power of our god. There is no one like him and he is still in the business of healing, restoring and setting people free. Right, he is still in the business of resurrecting people from death to life, in the natural and in the supernatural. And what I've realized is that God is using these miracles as signs, you know, signs that bring glory to his name, but also signs that awaken his people. Right, I almost feel like I've just I've been awakened to another realm of his supernatural power, like I knew these things were happening.

Speaker 1:

But to actually hear stories of people's real life experience, that is it. If you haven't, you know, like her, actual stories upon stories. I encourage you to go do that. I encourage you to go to CBN their website, or the 700 Club their website. They have a lot of miraculous stories of just people's literal experiences of dying, coming back to life and then going to heaven and seeing heaven and seeing Jesus. It's mind-blowing and it will change you. It will change you, so I would encourage you to do that.

Speaker 1:

Um, there are so many, there are so many and and and you wouldn't. You wouldn't have found them unless God had ordained it. Like you don't just typically run into people who who have shared their, you know their, their testimony in that way, unless, right, you stumbled upon it, or it was God ordained, or like, or you came along, somebody at work or something like that. But, like, for me, I've I haven't really stumbled upon it in this way before where it's just you know, story after story. So I would encourage you to do that.

Speaker 1:

And what I've realized too, is that you know, these miracles are not just to make us feel good, right, they're divine invitations into a deeper faith, into the awe of God and into relationship with the healer himself. So today I want to challenge you If God has ever healed you of something, if he's ever restored something in your life. If he's ever done something so powerful that you knew it had to be him, your job or on social media, share it. Don't hold on to that. People need to hear that it's encouragement to somebody else. Just as these stories that I've been able to listen to have impacted me and encouraged me and strengthened me, and like just they have done something to me that your story and testimony will do the same for someone else, just as much, if not greater. So the world needs to hear it.

Speaker 1:

People all around us all around us are silently suffering, right, we know that there are many who are suffering deeply, greatly, whether it's through sickness, depression, they're feeling stuck or they're you know, they're walking through trials and they don't know God. Right, if you're a believer and you're listening, you know what it's like to walk through a hard, difficult time I mean, I'm talking difficult trial and you don't know God, what that's like and how you're looking for everything under the sun to help you, to make you feel better, to resolve it, to make it go away, like all the things. You know what that looks like. You know what that feels like.

Speaker 1:

There are literally people out there who are going through this right now and some don't even believe that healing is possible for them, like they may have heard about it from, from maybe you know in their life, somebody you know was healed. Then they may have heard about it in the word, but they don't truly believe that it's possible for them. You know, I've been there. I've been there where you know, not feeling great or going through, you know, a trial of sickness, and there was a time when I didn't believe that the Lord could heal me of this, that it could go away without medicine or without a doctor. You know telling me what's wrong, like you know that was me. And you know there's people that they think the only way is the world's way. But see, we know a better way. We know the way, the truth, the life, the God who is the I am. In Revelation 12, 11, it says they overcame by the blood of the lamb and the word of their testimony.

Speaker 1:

Your story carries power and it brings glory to God, first and foremost glory to God, but it also brings encouragement and hope and healing to others. People can relate, you know, with our pain in the process. When you share what God has done for you and you know you open up a door for them to believe that he can do it for them too. You know, think about a time in your life when you were going through something pretty, pretty rough, and you know, a lot of the times God will put somebody in your path. I recognize this in my life. He will put somebody in your path who has already gone through what you've gone through, like they're on the other side of the trial, and he'll put them in your path through, like they're on the other side of the trial. And he'll put them in your path why?

Speaker 1:

Because the related, the relatability, and it's and it's encouraging to you, the one who's going through it, to say, to hear somebody else say, yeah, I, I, you know, I too, have gone through that and it was difficult and it was hard, and I'd love to pray with you and I want to encourage you that you can, you can do this by by his grace, his grace alone, right, like that is what we can be for other people. People can't. When people can relate, you know it's there's something about that and then they can believe that the Lord can do it for them too. So I want to leave you with a couple of things here. Go out today and share the truth, share it with somebody and go out and encourage somebody with how God has worked in your life. Speak life. Speak boldly. Tell someone what Jesus has done in your life, because that is powerful. You never know who's desperate to hear it. You never know who's on the other side going through a battle. They don't know God, or maybe they do, and they're desperate to believe and have hope again that they too can overcome by the blood of Jesus, that they too can walk through this, whatever it is that they're going through.

Speaker 1:

So, as I said at the beginning of the episode, you know I want to let you in on a little update with the Be In His Purpose podcast. So, again, you may have noticed I've been away from it for a few weeks and that's really because the Lord has called me to move in a new direction at this time and in this season, and he has called me to lay some things down for a time and a season and to pick up some things right now. So this is really, you know, a call to be obedient to the Lord, to humble myself and to say OK, lord, I trust you that you will, you're going to work. You have a plan. You have a purpose greater than what I can see right now. You're going to work. You have a plan. You have a purpose greater than what I can see right now. You're going to provide and make a way. But he has called me to lay down, like you know, my business being his purpose, the thing that he called me to. You know he called me out of my corporate job to start the business, but right now he's leading me in a way of humility. Honestly, he's leading me through humility and he's leading me through building my faith in him and trusting him for everything. But to lay this down for a season and to do what he is asking right now and to basically to to reach the reach the lost, to reach out for souls. Put souls at the forefront of everything I do right now and he will take care of the rest. See, the Bible says in Matthew 633,. It says seek first God's kingdom and what God wants, then all your other needs will be met as well. So I left my corporate job in mid-October of 2024.

Speaker 1:

In November, sometime in November I don't have the exact date in front of me right now, but I heard the Lord say be gathering. That's it, those two words be gathering. That's it, those two words Be gathering. And when I heard that, I began to like, study it and try to. You know, Lord, what are you saying from this? And what I was understanding is that he was saying to there's, you know, there's script, there's in scripture, there's a you know there's script, there's in scripture. There's a, uh, where it talks about there's a time and a season for everything. There's a time to build. There's a time to, you know, to um, there's a time and a season for everything. So they're in a certain place in scripture where it says to gather stones and there is also a place where it says to tear down, well, to gather stones.

Speaker 1:

I was like, okay, well, lord, is that what you're saying? Gather stones, be gathering stones. And really that scripture is talking about like building, you know you're, you're building an altar, uh, gathering stones to build an altar to build. And so I said, okay, are you? You know he's, he's calling me to build, he's calling me to build. So I began building and that's from the business. So building and you know, putting things together and creating things and building, but there was still something that was just, that wasn't. It wasn't what he was saying and he had to to get my attention.

Speaker 1:

And so I then realized that the Lord was actually talking about be gathering, be gathering souls, be gathering, reaching the lost. That is what the Lord wants. He is coming soon. Jesus is coming back soon. We don't have time to waste. This is what, this is what I was hearing, like we don't have time to waste. This is what he was putting on my heart. Jesus is coming back soon and he began to change my heart posture that tomorrow is not promised and right now he is patiently allowing time so that people will come to know him, that they will not perish. And so, in that time in between, reaching those who don't know him. You know, the Bible tells us the harvest is plenty, but the workers are few. Gather souls, the harvest of souls is ready.

Speaker 1:

So that's where I'm at, that's what I'm doing, that is the call that I should be working out in obedience right now is to do that, and so if you have been on any of my social media platforms, you will see that I have posted on my social media platforms the shift in my assignment right now. That is first and foremost. That is the first and foremost, call to act and obey in. And so the Lord has said okay, I want you to lay this down for a time and I want you to do this, and so that's what I've done, and so I do believe that I will pick up the pieces of being his purpose and we'll continue it at another time. Right now, I'm not necessarily putting my full focus on that, so I'm laying that down and, like I said, just putting my full focus on this pathway. I said just putting my full focus on this pathway, and that is, you know, that is really where I've been able to, like I said, I've been, I've been listening to story after story of story of just the wonder working power of God and his like. That alone is I can't. I can't even describe it. There's no words. So that is a little bit of what I'm doing right now, and so I would encourage you to stay tuned and to this channel. Stay tuned with me on my other social media platforms. If you haven't already, go and follow and subscribe to those. I'm on TikTok, on Instagram and Facebook, as well as on YouTube and also on Snapchat.

Speaker 1:

I've changed the name of those, for right now I'm not sure what the Lord will lead me to do later, but I I think that he is calling me to um, for me to be out there, my name to be put out, um, this is just what I'm hearing. So that's what I've done. So you'll see it's Yvonne Paschal on most of my channels. If not Yvonne Paschal, one word. So you can go check those out and get plugged in there and just follow me and follow this journey that the Lord has me on. And I do, from time to time, post content around the pillars of my overall mission and vision for the ministry, for the business, which are faith, prophetic healing, kingdom purpose, kingdom wealth. Those are the pillars. So I'll still be posting a long content on that, but it's not my primary focus. So I just wanted you to know that.

Speaker 1:

But I also want to share with you that for those that may be listening right now and maybe you know you don't know the Lord, maybe you found this podcast through. You know who knows God put it in your path, in your sight, and maybe you haven't been walking with the Lord, or maybe you've walked away from the Lord, or maybe you just you know you don't know the Lord. I want you to know that God is the way, the truth, the life. He is everything. He is a saving grace when there's nothing, when you have lost all hope and belief that there's actually good in this world, that things can actually get better. You know, when you hit rock rock bottom and and you're, you're looking, you're trying to to keep your head up and you're like when is when? Is it going to get better? Is it ever going to get better than this, like this is?

Speaker 1:

You're tired of living day to day. You know, just in, in trial and in despair. I want you to know that there is salvation is available, that Jesus is available. He is with you in the fire, in the mess, in the trial. He sees you, he knows you and he is for you. And if you're feeling, you know there's a stirring in your heart right now, tug of, I want that, I want to feel that I want my life to look different, I want to be changed. I need a savior. If that's you, if you feel that in your heart right now, and you know what you've tried isn't working and you're tired of trying the old and you're ready for something new, something that will change your life forever, I want you to know that that's not just a feeling. That's God, that's God stirring your heart, that's God calling you and he's saying I see you.

Speaker 1:

God's word says in Romans 10, 9, if you declare with your mouth Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. It's that simple. Salvation is a free gift. You know, we don't have to earn it. We don't have to clean ourselves up first. Jesus already paid the price. All you have to do is receive it. So if that's you today, I don't want you to wait. I want you to take this step today because, remember, tomorrow is not promised. We are not guaranteed tomorrow.

Speaker 1:

So if that is you and you know god is calling you, I want you to pray this prayer out loud with me, right now, right where you are, and say it from your heart. Say, lord jesus, I come to you today. Lord Jesus, I come to you today just as I am. I believe you died for my sins and that you rose again so I could have new life. Forgive me of all my sin, wash me clean. I surrender my heart to you. I choose to follow you from this day forward. Be my Lord, my Savior and my everything. Fill me with your Holy Spirit. Make me new In Jesus' name. Amen.

Speaker 1:

Friend, if you just prayed that, I want to welcome you and congratulate you and say I am so proud of you for taking that step, for being obedient and for listening to the prompting of God. And heaven is rejoicing. Believe that Heaven is rejoicing right now and I am rejoicing with you and I'm going to be in prayer for you and I'm going to be in prayer for you. I want you to boldly declare that you accepted Christ. I want you to leave me a comment or you could send me an email as well, whichever you want to do, but I want you to boldly declare that, if that's you, if you accepted Christ today, either leave a comment below and say I receive Christ. I prayed that prayer, or you can email me, and my email will be down below, and let me know that, because I want to be in prayer with you and for you and I want to encourage you to get connected with a local, holy Spirit filled, bible believing church.

Speaker 1:

Start reading God's word, spend time in prayer. The other important thing is to be baptized in the Holy Spirit. You want to make a public declaration. That's what that baptism is. Make a public declaration of your professing faith to God, and so get baptized and surround yourself with other believers who will encourage you in your walk. All of these things are going to be important for you to do. These are your next steps.

Speaker 1:

So I want to challenge you to do those things. You are no longer the same. You are a new creation in Christ. The old has passed away and, behold, everything is being made new. So I want to end with this today, that, if this has blessed you, if this has encouraged you, leave a comment or send me an email, but I would love to hear what God is doing in your life and how this is encouraging you, because this is, this is him, this is his, his words to you. This is, this is not, um, anything that is not coincidence, because it's not. It's all divinely planned by the Lord. And again, I want to encourage you to go out and share the truth, share your testimony, share how God has done a work in your life, and stay expectant and remember you are loved, you are chosen and you are called for such a time as this. Until next time, I want you to be bold, be faithful and be in His purpose.
