THE GARMENT OF PRAISE EP3_B | @SistersNarrativePodcast | WITH BLISS IVY Featuring Sis. AFFI

"THE GARMENT OF PRAISE," featuring Sis. Affi (Affiong Bassey) @UnfilteredConvo The discussion centers on the spiritual concept of the "garment of praise," based on Isaiah 61:3, which speaks of giving "beauty for ashes, the oil of mourning, and the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness." Sis. Affi describes praise as a lifestyle and a mantle, rather than just a mood or an occasional act in church [05:44]. She explains that praise is about reminding ourselves who God is, especially during difficult seasons [00:27]. The speakers discuss how life’s troubles—such as illness, loss, or financial debt—can feel like a crushing weight [09:43]. Sis. Affi notes that the enemy often uses these situations to create a sense of hopelessness, which is the true "heaviness" that prevents us from praising [19:01]. Sis. Affi shares a powerful story of suffering from extreme abdominal pain and being diagnosed with advanced ovarian cancer about 10–13 years ago [36:40]. During her hospital stay, she recounts hearing a voice ask her three times, "Do you believe me?" which led her to a place of deep surrender and trust in God [40:17]. She describes the "heaviness" of being rejected by a doctor and waiting 10 hours in a wheelchair with swollen limbs before finally being admitted to the hospital [45:04]. Despite the dire diagnosis and the physical pain, she found that choosing praise and forgiveness (even toward the doctor who initially refused her) was essential to her spiritual journey and healing [48:17]. The panel concludes that praise flows naturally from a personal relationship with God [31:26]. They emphasize that faith is not the absence of fear, but the decision to trust God’s goodness in spite of it [35:18]. Watch the full video here: THE GARMENT OF PRAISE EP3_A
