The Power You Need is In You, Tapping In to Your Mountain Moving Power.
In episode 3 of Brown Girls and Mental Health Podcast, Tiara talks about the power we hold within to move mountains ( mountains of addiction, fear, suicidality, anxiety, etc). She goes into detail on how to tap into the power that God gave us to send the devil packing! Welcome in the room.
A note from our host:
“Episode 3 is God’s disruption of my plan. I had every intention of talking about friendship loss, but God had other plans.”

Hello everybody, and welcome to episode 3 of Brown Girls and Mental Health Podcast. Y 'all, today's episode, I was praying before I was going to start,
because I had planned to talk about managing friendship loss, and I said, "God, thank you for keeping me alive." And I got stuck on that, and I said it again,
"God, thank you for keeping me alive." And my eyes stopped. to water and I was just thinking about how immensely tough this week was and thinking about the fact that nothing else matters right so managing friendship loss like talking about anything else is irrelevant like if you're not here anymore I don't know if this is anybody else's bad or struggle but when my life gets really challenging and honestly I think I can relate it to when I'm on the cusp of greatness right so when there's big impact happening or when God has me on an assignment the enemy does this thing where he really tries to get in my head and tell me that there's no point in me being here nobody cares and it's too hard for you you can't do it so why are you even trying and and sometimes I believe those words and I know that he has no real power in the earth but he can whisper in your ear and that whisper a lot of times is detrimental to your your well -being and your mental peace and overall health health and so when i was praying god thank you for keeping me alive i just was thinking about the times this week that he was in my ear and i was believing what he was saying um but i have a tool for you all that i have started using and it sounds so obvious but when I start to feel like I can't make it anymore. God this is the end for me. I literally tell Satan to leave. Literally like I'll be sitting in the pits of my despair laying across my bed thinking about outrageous stuff but I'm at the point now where I could recognize that it's the trick of the enemy.
He's a one -trick pony. He does the same thing over and over and over and over and over again. And before it was like, oh, I'm just depressed or,
you know, this is my thorn, right? So this is the one thing that makes me not normal or makes me, you know, feel unworthy,
right? That's these thoughts that go through my head and what feels like an inability to manage stress in a way that doesn't end in me thinking about how to not be here anymore.But it's nothing but a trick of the enemy and we have to recognize it as that because we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, period. We're wrestling against spirits, principalities, the enemy. He has a plan. plan to end our lives. Do you understand that? And I know this sounds like, okay, girl, like you going off the deep end, but what I'm telling you is it's not a game. He wants to end my life. Do you hear what I'm saying? God has so much for me and the plan for my life and the impact that it'll have on other people.
is so massive and inexplainable and so great that the enemy for years has made up his mind I gotta keep her down I gotta stop her if I could stop her before she starts if I can convince her that she's not good enough to do it if I can convince her that nobody cares if I can convince her that it doesn't matter what she's doing nobody will get what's inside of me. And what's inside of me is a lot of power. What's inside of me is God's word. What's inside of me is hope for other people.
And he wants to stop me before I can really get going. But what I've been doing, when I hear that voice, or I start to feel like this is then this is really just too much it's just too much I speak to the enemy and I say you have to leave it's time for you to go I rebuke the enemy right now in the name of Jesus you have to leave my home I rebuke the spirit of suicidality you have to leave And when I tell
you, I sound like somebody grandma maybe, but listen to me. When I started speaking to that thing, the quickness with which it gets up out of there,
and I'm not talking just, "God, you know I'm suffering. Please help me." Like that too, right? But I've got to talk to that devil and tell him to go.
Because when I talk to him, he has no choice. When I say leave, that's the power that God has given us. When we tell him to leave, he has to go.
And I think about how this can be applied to so many things in our lives, right? Maybe it's addiction. Maybe it's anxiety. Maybe it's fear, right?
But if you can recognize it and say, this is a trick of the enemy He's trying to get in my mind and the fact that he's trying to get in my mind Means I have something to offer the world means there's something inside of me That he doesn't want to reach anybody else because he knows it will further the plane of God What I'm saying is we got to start speaking to those mountains and telling them to move We have We have to. He gave us the power to do that. He told us that that's our right. Whatever we bind on earth will be bound in heaven. Whatever we loose on earth will be loose in heaven.
Is that the scripture? Let me check. Matthew 18 : 18. I'm not finna sit up here and lie to y 'all. Truly I tell you whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven and whatever you loose on earth will be loose in heaven.
heaven." Let me find the scripture where he says, where he says that if you talk to that mountain and tell it to move, it has to move. Hold on, let me find the scripture.
Here we go, we on it. Mark 11, 23. "For assuredly I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, be removed and be cast into the sea, and does not doubt in his heart,
but believes that those things he says will come to pass. He will have whatever he says. He will have whatever he says. We got to talk to the mountain,
tell it to move. The mountain for me is thoughts of suicide. That's my mountain. The desire to end my life is my mountain.
Maybe that's not your mountain. Maybe yours is immense fear, right? We gotta talk to that mountain and tell it to move and believe it in the depths of our heart that because we said it,
it's gonna happen. And guess what it has to do? He said, "We could tell the mountain to get in the sea." You tell the A's.
to leave you you got to go this is a trick of the enemy you have to leave and guess what it has to do it has to get up out of here and the enemy doesn't want us to know the power that we hold with just our tongue and our faith and the faith is a big part of it you have to really believe when you say I rebuke the spirit of anxiety God I'm not afraid you did not give me the spirit of fear fear I command
you to leave my heart right now when you say that thing and you mean it guess what has to happen fear is a spirit it has to leave you do you want me to read it again a mountain you know how big a mountain is he said we could put it in the sea with our belief talk to your mountain whatever your mountain is I don't know it's lots of mountains whatever your mountain is if you know it's a spirit and it's not of
God you already hold the the power that you need to tell it to leave your life is it a one -time fix all baby no it's gonna try to come back of course it doesn't want you here it doesn't want you fulfilling God's purpose for your life so it's gonna double back but guess what you have the power it's in you you have the power to tell it to leave and it has to go.
And you know what this makes me think about? It makes me think about like what else is it that we have the power to do that we don't tap into because maybe we don't have the faith,
right? What else are we capable of? And I'm speaking to you here alive because I I spoke to my mountain and I told it to move so I know that it works I'm not telling you any lies because I'm here still I'm a living witness That it works when you tell it to leave I've done it with anxiety My heart starts beating fast.
I'm just overtaken with anxiety and I spoke to it and I said you have to go you have to leave my body right now and it left it left do you hear what I'm saying you you hold that power within you today right now belief is a big part though you gotta to believe and that can be that can be the challenging part But it can happen for you any day of the week I Encourage you to try it out in some area of your
life This week step one is to recognize the spirit. What is it? What is it? What's your mountain? Step two,
muster up deep belief that it can leave you. Step three, talk to that spirit and tell it to leave and watch God work. I won't prolong this podcast to try to get,
you know, more minutes, more time, whatever the case may be. God then said what He wanted to say now. It's nothing else. It's nothing else for me to say.
I want to end with a prayer. And I pray that even in this prayer that God give me the words to say to the woman, to the man who needs to hear it. Dear God, I thank you right now for this day.
Thank you again for keeping me alive, for keeping her alive, for keeping him alive. Thank you for covering us. God, I thank you right now for the power that you've placed inside of us,
the power we have to speak to that mountain and tell it to move. God, I thank you for the person listening, that you will give them the courage and the faith to try you,
to try it out. And God, I pray that you work on behalf of whoever it is on the other end of this prayer and he moved their mountains in Jesus name I pray amen thank you all for being here thank you for listening for real for real I love y 'all for real for real is gonna be okay we're gonna get through this stay hopeful Bye.
