Reasons to Listen
- Discover the Heart Behind “SALT” - Hear the incredible story of how a divine word—Safety, Anointed, Legit, Timing—birthed a record that’s more than music; it’s a call to mission.
- Be Encouraged in God’s Timing - Benny’s decades-long journey is a testimony that God’s promises are never late—they’re always right on time.
- Learn to Fight from Victory, Not for It - From “Throat Punch the Devil” to lessons on spiritual warfare, Benny reminds us that believers aren’t called to play defense—we’re called to take territory for the Kingdom.
Big Takeaways
- God’s timing is always perfect—your season will come when it aligns with His purpose.
- “Salt” preserves and purifies; as believers, we’re called to bring truth that endures, not the “sugar” of comfort or compromise.
- Feelings fade, but faith endures—don’t make decisions out of emotion, but out of obedience.
- Spiritual warfare is real, but victory is already won through Jesus.
- We don’t just need to know who we are—we must know whose we are.
Missional Challenges
- Be the Salt in Your Sphere - Ask the Holy Spirit to show you one person or space where you can bring truth and encouragement this week. Whether that’s a co-worker who’s weary, a neighbor you’ve avoided, or a friend who’s struggling — step into that moment with love and authenticity. Let your words preserve, uplift, and point back to Jesus.
- Trade Sugar for Salt - Reflect on areas in your life where you may have softened truth for the sake of comfort or approval. This week, choose to live with holy boldness. Speak truth in love, even when it’s uncomfortable. Let your faith have flavor — not the sweetness of compromise, but the purity of Christ’s love that endures and transforms.
- Move in His Timing, Not Yours - If you’ve been waiting for breakthrough, take a moment to surrender your timeline back to God. Instead of asking “When, Lord?” ask “What are You teaching me in this season?” Pray over your calling and take one small step of obedience today — trusting that His timing is never delayed, only divine.
