With Valentine’s Day around the corner, many of us may feel a "poke" at old or new wounds. Whether you are single, married, or navigating a difficult relationship season, the pressure of human love can often whisper that you are "lacking."

In this episode, Ivory shares a personal, "wrecking" revelation from Isaiah 54:5 that shifted her entire perspective on identity and intimacy. What if Valentine’s Day wasn’t about the love you do or don’t have from a person, but about the love that has always been yours? Join Ivory as she explores what it means to be the Bride of Christ—not as a religious concept, but as a lived reality that turns human love from a "lifeline" into an "overflow."

In This Episode, We Discuss:

  1. The Morning God Wouldn’t Let Me Sleep: Ivory shares her personal journey of being "stripped" in January and the early morning wake-up call that led her to Isaiah 54:5.
  2. Human Love vs. Heavenly Reality: Why we often ask humans (spouses, children, friends) to provide what only God can.
  3. The 6 Names of Your "Husband": A deep dive into the Hebrew meanings of God’s character:
  4. Ba’al (The One who claims you)
  5. Osayich (The One who formed you)
  6. YHVH Tzevaot (The Commander of Angel Armies)
  7. Goaleich (Your Redeemer)
  8. Kedush Yisrael (The Trustworthy One)
  9. Eloheiy Chol-ha'aretz (The Limitless God)
  10. Realignment over Romance: How to silence the "noise" of Valentine’s Day and rest in a covenant love that you cannot lose or scare away.

Resources Mentioned:

  1. Scripture: Isaiah 54:5 (NIV & TPT), Song of Solomon
  2. Message Recommendation: Larissa Miller at the Jesus Image Women’s Conference (Message begins at 34:15)
