Episode Synopsis

Get Behind Me – Devotional on Matthew 16:21–23When Jesus explained that He must suffer and die, Peter rebuked Him. It didn’t fit Peter’s plan, and it didn’t feel right. But Jesus’ response was firm: “Get behind me, Satan.”In this episode, we unpack:Why even good intentions can still contradict God’s will.How the enemy uses fear and self-preservation to keep us from obedience.Biblical examples of people who said, “Never, Lord,”—and the lessons we can learn.What it means to lay down our plans and truly embrace God’s.Reflection Question: Where are you telling God, “Never, Lord,” in your own life?Challenge: Ask God to expose where human concerns have outweighed His will. Then take one step of obedience this week, even if it’s uncomfortable.Prayer: Lord, help me stop clinging to my way and start trusting Yours. Give me the courage to obey, even when it stretches me. Amen.
