In this episode titled “The Gifts God Gives Us,” host Valarie Rocha begins by discussing the various gifts that God provides to us. She distinguishes between tangible gifts that come in packages and intangible gifts that are wrapped in God’s love, such as deliverance, healing, restoration, grace, and obedience. Valarie emphasizes that these divine gifts transform our lives, lifting us up and drawing us closer to God.

She explains how deliverance and healing serve as means to relieve the burdens of life circumstances, offering courage and empowerment through God’s love and word. Valarie encourages listeners to exercise their free will and seek wisdom from God when faced with choices, highlighting the significance of God’s healing which restores wholeness in physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects.

Valarie then discusses the gift of restoration, clarifying that it goes beyond mere replacement of what was lost, offering something better and stronger. This is coupled with the assurance that every chapter of our lives can be redeemed by God if we place our trust in Him.

Furthermore, she explains the importance of grace, which is freely given, and serves to uplift and fortify individuals during their struggles. Valarie reassures listeners that no matter how dire their situations seem, God’s grace will always bring them back to a higher state.

Finally, she introduces the gift of obedience, stating it aligns us with God’s purpose and, although it may not seem like a gift initially, it ultimately leads to blessings, clarity, protection, and divine favor. Valarie concludes by reminding listeners that even if gifts aren’t wrapped in paper, they are intentionally given with love, demonstrating God’s continuous involvement in our lives and His desire to provide everything we need to grow closer to Him.
