5. Never Have I Ever
28:22||Season 5, Ep. 5In this episode of The Clarion Call, Nici Mathis exposes the one thing that quietly disqualifies people from deliverance: the refusal to admit or release a sin pattern. Building on last weekās conversation with Mickey Woolery and the Strongholds study, Nici uses the childhood game āNever Have I Everā to reveal how many believers still hide behind spiritual denial, protecting the very patterns that keep them bound.Through scripture, personal experience as a deliverance minister, and Jesusā constant warning to āgo and sin no more,ā Nici shows that God cannot deliver what we refuse to confess. Freedom requires honesty, humility, and a willingness to surrender the sin that opened the door.This episode is a call to drop the image, raise your hand, and finally say, āLord⦠I have. And Iām ready to be free.ā
3. Saved from Saulās Armor: Not Like Other Agents
39:32||Season 5, Ep. 3This episode explores 1 Samuel 17:38ā40, where David refuses to wear Saulās armor before facing Goliath. Itās a powerful reminder that we canāt walk in victory using someone elseās methods or identity. God calls His people to be peculiar, set apart, and confident in what He has uniquely equipped them to carry.Weāll examine how the spirit of comparison limits growth and how Scripture warns that comparing ourselves with others āis not wiseā (2 Corinthians 10:12). Through biblical insight, real-life lessons, and moments of reflection, this message reveals that true freedom and effectiveness come when we embrace our own anointing.š Scripture References:1 Samuel 17:38ā40 ā David refuses Saulās armor.2 Corinthians 10:12 ā Comparison is not wise.1 Corinthians 1:27 ā God uses the foolish to confound the wise.Romans 12:2 ā Be transformed, not conformed.1 Peter 2:9 ā A chosen and peculiar people.

40. Unbreakable Covenants
36:11||Season 4, Ep. 40In this episode, Nici Mathis teaches from Jeremiah 33:20ā21 (NLT), revealing how Godās covenants are legally binding and eternally recorded in the Courts of Heaven. Just as property covenants are filed and upheld by law, Godās Word stands firmāunbreakable and unchangeable. Drawing from Robert Hendersonās book The Courts of Heaven, available at https://a.co/d/2riefll, Nici explains that prayer is not begging for mercy but presenting a legal petition before the Judge of Heaven based on the covenant sealed in the blood of Jesus.When believers pray Scripture, they align their petitions with Heavenās record, and the Holy SpiritāHeavenās own stenographerārecords every decree of faith. Godās promises cannot fail, and His Word stands as the final ruling over every case in our lives.š Scripture References:Jeremiah 33:20ā21 | Hebrews 6:17ā18 | Isaiah 33:22 | Malachi 3:16 | Psalm 89:34 | Hebrews 12:22ā24 | 1 John 2:1 | Revelation 12:10 | John 16:13 | Romans 8:26ā27 | Isaiah 55:11 | Psalm 103:20 | Habakkuk 2:2
