Free will is so powerful that even a perfect being could choose imperfection.
If your life is yielding confusion, captivity, or lack—it’s a sign of misalignment, not God’s design.
God’s gifts are not delayed or rationed; they are already available—you just need to learn how to receive and sustain them.
In this episode of the Counterfeit Systems Series, we explore why origins matter—why God created us with free will, why He allowed sin, and why His plan of salvation was always in motion. Free will makes authentic love and obedience possible, but it also opens the door to rebellion and brokenness. Yet God’s unfailing love relentlessly pursues us, even when we’re out of alignment. The truth is, His gifts of love, peace, and joy are already available to His children—but without knowledge, many fail to receive and sustain them.
If you’re experiencing captivity in your health, finances, or relationships, this episode will help you recognize where misalignment exists and invite the Holy Spirit to realign your life with God’s Kingdom. His goodness and mercy are not always comfortable, but they are always working for your good. This is the foundation every believer needs to thrive in God’s Kingdom—especially in times of cultural chaos and spiritual deception.
I pray this episode blesses you and gives you a fresh perspective on aligning your wealth, health, and relationships with the principles of the Kingdom.
Enjoy!
Your Kingdom BFF,
Raquel
