The Power of Healing and Self-Reflection:
“If you don’t heal, you can’t help people heal,” Lish begins, setting a reflective tone for the listeners. Addressing the pervasive struggles of past wounds and emotional baggage, she connects these barriers to the biblical wilderness, encouraging individuals to perceive the new paths that God provides.

Today, she talks about wearing the Jordan Retro 2 Chicago’s, pivoting from sneakers to life advice with ease. Her love for this sneaker model mirrors her appreciation for individuality over collective opinion, reminding her audience that confidence in one’s choices is invaluable.
Perceiving New Beginnings:
Central to this episode is the theme of transitions. Lish opens up about the seasons of change she is experiencing, emphasizing the importance of recognizing transitional phases and adjusting one’s mindset accordingly. She cites Isaiah 43:18-19, where it urges believers to forget the past and be aware of the new things that God is doing, framing this as a metaphor for her personal growth and the evolution of her audience.
Forget the Former Things:
In a profound exploration of letting go of the past, Lish encourages her listeners to examine the aspects of their lives they need to forget. She highlights that letting go is not just about abandoning painful memories but is also about embracing the freedom God provides through new seasons and opportunities.
Changing Your Perception:
Delving deep into the idea of perception, Lish draws from Ephesians 4:22-23 and Romans 12:2 to discuss how a transformation of the mind is crucial for perceiving the new blessings God has in store. Changing one’s perception allows believers to see potential even in unexpected places, fostering a mindset that welcomes growth and overcomes adversity.
Look for the Abundance:
Lish passionately shares the importance of recognizing and following the paths that God creates, even in challenging times. She uses vivid imagery from the scriptures about God making ways in the wilderness and streams in wastelands, arguing that abundance is a right given by God. This serves as a reminder that recognizing and walking in God’s provisions can lead to incredible transformation and fulfillment.
Conclusion:
The episode closes with Lish reflecting on the importance of obedience to God’s will and how it contributes to one’s legacy. She shares her personal aspiration to always recognize and act upon God’s guidance, encouraging her listeners to reflect on their legacy and the meaning of true spiritual and personal obedience.
