Episode Synopsis

In this message, we dive into one of the most overlooked yet life-changing fruits of the Spirit — self-control.
Through the story of Esau and Jacob, we see what happens when a single moment of weakness costs a lifetime of blessing. Esau traded his entire inheritance for one bowl of soup. In the same way, many today trade their purpose, peace, and future for temporary satisfaction.
But God has called us to something greater. Self-control is not about restriction — it’s about strength, focus, and trusting God’s timing. When you learn to say “no” to the flesh, you’re saying “yes” to the future God has for you.
Join us as we explore how self-control can:
Build stronger relationships
Guard your calling
Unlock God’s favor and blessing
Keep you from trading eternity for temporary pleasure
Don’t make the rest of your life about a bowl of soup — choose the Kingdom instead.
Scriptures referenced: Galatians 5:22–23, Genesis 25:27–34, Hebrews 12:17, Matthew 13:45–50, Revelation 21–22
