Have you ever been faithful to speak what God gave you—only to be met with silence, resistance, or rejection? In this episode of Kingdom Fuel, we continue through Ezekiel and land in chapter 3, a place that isn’t just Scripture for me…it’s my personal call. Together we explore what it means to carry words heavy with truth, to sit in sacred silence, and to trust God even when your audience refuses to listen. If you’ve ever wondered why God would hold you back instead of releasing you—this one is for you...

What happens when a trip to the cinema becomes a sacred encounter? In this episode, Joycelyn sits down with author and ministry leader Meliza Farndell, who shares how watching the Disney movie Tangled turned into a divine turning point. It was in that moment she moved from knowing about God to experiencing the love of the Father—and it changed her life forever.

Together, we unpack:

In this continuation of Ezekiel Chapter 2, we enter a pivotal moment—Ezekiel is commanded to eat the scroll, a symbolic act that underscores the weight of his prophetic assignment. In this Kingdom Fuel episode, we explore what it means to digest a word that’s filled with “lament, mourning, and woe,” and still say yes to God. From the intimate moment of consuming the message to the sobering reality of being sent to a rebellious people, this teaching walks us through the cost of obedience, the isolation of calling, and the fierce love of a God...

In this first part of Ezekiel 2, we step into the uncomfortable beauty of a divine encounter that doesn’t come with applause—but with assignment. God calls Ezekiel to stand up, knowing full well the people won’t listen. Yet the command remains: speak anyway. This episode explores the holy tension of being sent to a resistant people, the spiritual posture of standing when you'd rather sit it out, and what it means to receive a scroll laced with lament, mourning, and woe—and still eat it.

We reflect on what it feels...

In this explosive Kingdom Fuel episode, Joycelyn pulls back the curtain on 3 John and exposes the spirit of Diotrephes—spiritual gatekeeping, silencing, and power-wielding leadership that resists truth. 

With prophetic boldness and personal reflection, Joycelyn speaks to every listener who’s ever been shut out for speaking up. She honors the Gaiuses, confronts the systems, and reminds us all:

Speaking up breaks the mimicry.

If you’ve ever felt punished for telling the truth, this episode is your confirmation, your healing, and your holy permission to walk...

In this sacred bonus episode of Kingdom Fuel, we linger at the edge of Ezekiel’s vision—right where the glory of God settles like a rainbow in the clouds. Drawing from Ezekiel 1:28, we explore what happens when true glory enters the room—not hype, not noise, but holy stillness.

Joycelyn reflects on how the presence of God invites us into silence, not spectacle, and how reverence often begins with restraint. This message is for every soul who’s been taught that praise must be loud to be real.

Welcome to The Prophetic Journey Through Ezekiel—an 11-part series walking chapter by chapter through Ezekiel 1–11.

We’ve all heard the phrase: “Don’t drink the water.”
Especially when a woman is pregnant — because drinking it might trigger something.
Might bring on labor. Might bring forth what’s been forming.

In this Kingdom Fuel episode, I flip that warning into a prophetic invitation.
 Because what if obedience is the water?
What if drinking what God offers — even when it’s bitter — is the very thing that births breakthrough?

From the woman at the well, to the widow with the jars, to Jesus in the garden...

What do you do when life breaks you open on the day you were supposed to be praying?

In this Kingdom Fuel episode, Joycelyn takes us into the sacred tension of suffering and sovereignty. On a Good Friday, she fell and broke her femur, crawling 150 feet alone to open the door for help. While lying in the ER for hours—waiting, hurting, and unsure—she experienced the ministry of angels, the power of prayer, and the mercy of God.

This episode is not just about pain—it’s about perspect...

It’s Wednesday—midweek and in-between. Not quite Friday’s breaking… not yet Sunday’s rising. But right here, right now, is where the shift happens.

In this Kingdom Fuel Wednesday Meditation, Joycelyn invites you to pause in the sacred stillness of the middle and remember: You are sent. Just as Jesus set His face toward purpose—knowing the weight of Friday and still believing in the promise of Sunday—we too are called to walk with clarity and courage in our assignment.

Some days, we don’t need more advice—we need permission.
 Permission to feel. To unravel a little. To let the tears fall without shame.

In this tender Kingdom Fuel episode, I share what I’ve been carrying quietly… and why I finally gave myself the grace to just cry. This isn’t a breakdown—it’s a release. It’s a reminder that even strong, Spirit-filled women need soft spaces too.

If you’ve been holding it in, this is your gentle invitation:

This is the continuation of a story that began in Episode 1: I Met Mister And It Wasn’t from The Color Purple

In this follow-up episode, I reflect on a conversation with a guest who initially came to discuss leadership and the role of men in faith—but it didn’t take long before deeper issues started to surface. What was supposed to be an uplifting dialogue quickly turned into a twisted exchange filled with gaslighting, racial deflection, and spiritual distortion.

He wasn’t just invited—he asked to be here.

You know how the Spirit sometimes warns you… but you realize it after the fact?
That’s what happened when I met “Mister.”

And no, I’m not talking about the Mister from The Color Purple — though the energy and spirit felt eerily familiar. I’m talking about a man who sounded like a friend, filled out a form to be a guest on my show, and came ready to “ignite.” But what he came with… was something else entirely.

There is an invitation being extended to the Body of Christ— not to shout louder, but to sit longer. Not to perform better, but to press in deeper.

In this powerful episode of The Joycelyn Ignites Podcast, Joycelyn delivers a prophetic call to the Church to rise above spiritual performance, religious routine, and surface-level faith. With piercing truth and compassionate boldness, she calls us to trade sugar water for living water… and to stop confusing repetition for revelation.
