In Christianity, the concept of "eternal pleasures in Heaven" refers to the unending joy and fulfillment believers will experience in the presence of God.
These pleasures are described as a state of ultimate happiness and satisfaction, far surpassing anything experienced on Earth. They are not merely fleeting delights but a constant source of joy and delight.
In this hopeful message, Mistie shares 5 Kingdom Keys from Psalm 16.

Although well-meaning, that statement isn’t accurate.
The truth is that words can hurt, deeply.
Reckless words pierce like a sword, but the tongue of the wise brings healing.
Proverbs 12:18

{Proverbs 4:23}
The Bible teaches us that out of the overflow of the heart the mouth speaks.
I don’t know about you, but I want my life to be an outpouring of good things— good words, good deeds, good thoughts, and good intentions.

So how do we experience this wellspring of life?

Season 2: Episode 12
In this encouraging episode, Mistie shares a parable of what it looks like to build your life on the sand spiritually and teaches on the wise and foolish builders from the Rock of God's Word.
Sharing from her own experience of making foolish decisions, Mistie knows that life on the sand is NO fairytale. She understands the pain and torment of witnessing your investment into something or someone fall apart and come crumbling down. It's a painful experience to build on the sand only to see what you worked so hard to create wash away when the storms of life hit.
Thankfully, Mistie has also witnessed the grace and mercy of God and shares how when we change our mind and choose to build on the ROCK, God works wonders.

Season 2: Episode 11
In this encouraging episode, Mistie shares three points on how to have a healthy, godly, and stable marriage using a fun metaphor.
She opens up about her own failures from her past experience to help you grow and learn how to have a victorious union as you center your marriage on Christ.
At times, the best way to ignite that spark in your marriage is to do the opposite of what you feel by doing for your spouse what you wish they'd do for you.
This is referred to as the Golden Rule in Scripture, but should be a golden rule in marriage as well.
This selfless act helps tip the scale and gets things like intimacy, passion, kindness, respect, adoration, and forgiveness teetering and tottering again.

Season 2: Episode 8
Are you in a spiritual fire? The fires of this life can come quickly and unexpectedly. They can cause devastation, but they can can also bring beauty and new life. We all face the elements. We all face trials, tribulations, and tests. The question is—How will you come out of those experiences?
Sometimes God allows His people to go through the fire because He wants to burn things out of our lives and give us an opportunity to experience newness, growth, and to polish us for purpose. Other times the enemy sends fires that threaten to steal, kill, and destroy.
In this enlightening episode, Mistie shares from her personal story of facing both natural and supernatural fires and teaches on two opposing types of fires we all face.
Learn how you can come out of the fire untouched, unharmed, and liberated in Jesus.
But now, this is what the Lord says—
he who created you, Jacob,
he who formed you, Israel:
“Do not fear, for I have redeemed you;
I have summoned you by name; you are mine.
2 When you pass through the waters,
I will be with you;
and when you pass through the rivers,
they will not sweep over you.
When you walk through the fire,
you will not be burned;
the flames will not set you ablaze.
{Isaiah 43:1-2}

Season 2: Episode 7
Beloved, are you in need of a divine turnaround? Do you feel like the enemy has been plotting against you? Or has God been SO good to you that you want to praise Him and celebrate the victories you've had? If you've answered yes to any of these questions, this message will encourage and empower you! In this hopeful episode, Mistie shares from the story of Esther and compares two very different people—Mordecai (the Jew) to Haman (the Agagite). These men's stories had contrasting ends—one was lifted up, the other brought down low.
What was the contributing factor?
How can we learn from this story?
What difference does it make today?
You and I were created for such a time as this!
The stories we read in Scripture from way back then, parallel with our narratives here and now.
God wants His Esther's to Emerge today and for His people to be crowned in Humility and Victory for all eternity!
“For the LORD delights in his people; he crowns the humble with victory.”
{Psalms 149:4 NLT}
Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God [set aside self-righteous pride], so that He may exalt you [to a place of honor in His service] at the appropriate time,
