Episode Summary:
In today’s episode, Tola continues the Revival series by focusing on the training season that follows restoration. Drawing from Psalm 40:2 and Psalm 144:1, she explores the symbolic significance of God as our Rock who trains us for battle and equips us for both the small and large challenges in life. Tola reminds us that revival is not just about restoration but preparation for what’s ahead.
