In this heartfelt episode of Purpose of Heart, Priscilla Allman invites us to look deeper at the power of choice and God’s unshakable purpose. From Pharaoh’s hardened heart to Nebuchadnezzar’s humbling fall, we see how Scripture reveals both divine sovereignty and human responsibility.
Even when life feels “already written,” God still invites us to respond — to obey, trust, and align with His will. Through Biblical examples and honest reflection, Priscilla reminds us that obedience changes how we experience God’s plan, while resistance often brings lessons we didn’t have to learn the hard way.
Whether you’re standing at your own “Red Sea moment” or wrestling with a decision that feels weighty, this episode will remind you that God’s mercy always leaves room for redemption.

Key Takeaways

  • Your choices matter. Even when God’s purpose is sure, how you respond determines your experience of it.
  • Pharaoh’s story shows how pride can block freedom — not only for ourselves but for those connected to us.
  • Nebuchadnezzar’s fall and restoration reveal God’s mercy after repentance and humility.
  • Obedience is partnership. When you align with God, His purpose unfolds with peace instead of pain.
  • God’s sovereignty doesn’t cancel your responsibility — it completes it.

    Scripture Highlights (NKJV)
  • “The counsel of the Lord stands forever, the plans of His heart to all generations.” — Psalm 33:11
  • “Therefore, O king, let my advice be acceptable to you: break off your sins by being righteous.” — Daniel 4:27
  • “But Pharaoh hardened his heart, and he did not heed them.” — Exodus 8:15

    Reflection Prompt
    What choice are you facing right now that God may be calling you to handle differently?

    Ask Him to reveal what obedience looks like in this moment — and trust that His mercy is already preparing the way.
