The Accord Sessions

Respect

In this podcast, the Accord Team, Rebecca and Naomi, talk about respect. How we treat others is probably one of the most telling insights we can get about a person, and we need to pay attention to what our behaviour is telling us about who we really are. How we treat others is about ethics and the value we put on others but it also shows us a lot about ourselves.

Rock Bottom

In this podcast, The Accord Team, Rebecca and Naomi, talk about what it means when we hit rock bottom. We can spend so much time and energy trying to navigate, manipulate and even try to avoid anything that we can’t control, because what we crave is the quiet life, the unbumpy road, and a journey with nothing difficult to overcome.

Get Your House In Order

In this podcast, the Accord Team, Rebecca and Naomi, talk about what it means to get your house in order. The culture and personality of God is freedom, and everything touched by Him has that opportunity. But with freedom comes responsibility and there is a part we carry in that process that facilitates that liberty.

Free Indeed

In this podcast, The Accord Team, Rebecca and Naomi, talk about being free indeed. Freedom can mean different things to different people, but we need to know if we live our lives in any form of constraint because that is not living in the fullness of what we have. It takes architecture to be free, it is a choice, a decision, a desire, and once made, we then have the responsibility to do it, walk it out and keep on making the right choices.

Don’t Forget

In this podcast, the Accord Team, Rebecca and Naomi, talk about not forgetting certain things. There is much emphasis in scripture to forget former things, sin, the past and all that that opposes the new, but there is also much emphasis on NOT forgetting certain things. God isn’t contradicting Himself here, He instructs us to forget former things but not to forget Him and what He has done for us.

Don’t Cast Your Peals Before Swines

In this podcast, the Accord Team, Rebecca and Naomi, look at the scripture in Matthew 7 v 6 which tells us not to cast our pearls before swines. It can be tricky to think about Jesus instructing us to not cast our pearls before swines because that sounds like a contradiction to our Kingdom life. We need to be Christ like but smart about who we give to.

Dealing With Embarrassment

In this podcast, the Accord Team, Rebecca and Naomi, talk about embarrassment and how it can affect our lives. Embarrassment is the uncomfortable feeling we all get when we have done something which we think will make us look bad. There are many reasons why we feel embarrassed, but ultimately it is all to do with our need to control how we are perceived and judged by others.

You Gotta Have Faith

In this podcast, the Accord Team, Rebecca and Naomi, talk about what it means to have faith. It is easy to have general faith but our faith has to be tested and it needs to be strong enough so that we can stand upon it and rely on it. God uses situations and circumstances to meet us in a place to expand our belief system in Him. We have to have new faith and trust and belief in God.

Though It Tarries, Wait For It

In this podcast, the Accord Team, Rebecca and Naomi, talk about God’s timing and specifically the scripture from Habakkuk 2 v 3. In this scripture, we are told that though it tarries, wait for it. Sometimes, it can feel overwhelming when God is doing a lot but there are times when He makes things tarry and that can be things from last week or things from years ago!

Setting Us Straight

In this podcast, the Accord Team, Rebecca and Naomi, talk about what God is doing at the moment. We have been on a journey since September where we were at the end of ourselves, and God met us in that place and started to show us vision and purpose, and then provide resources for that. After Christmas, when we came back in to the studio, we felt disorientated and a bit vague but knew that sometimes when you start something new you go through a no man’s land between the old and the new.

Renewing Our Mind

In this podcast, the Accord Team, Rebecca and Naomi talk about the importance of renewing our mind. Renewing our mind is our responsibility and it is completely within our control, and there are some practical ways that we can do these. We need to ask Holy Spirit to guard and direct our mind. Our behaviour starts in our mind and that is the epicentre of everything that we do, and we need to walk continuously with Holy Spirit in all things.

Taking My Thoughts Captive

In this podcast, the Accord Team, Rebecca and Naomi, talk about the importance of taking our thoughts captive. We are all completely able to be responsible and have control over our thinking, but this requires us to slow down, choose Him, and exchange our negative thoughts for His thoughts. This process doesn’t have to be effort or slog, but it is about our obedience to choose to jump on any negative thinking. and that is completely within our control.
