  • 213. Breaking Strongholds of the Enemy
    Nov 10 2025

    In this powerful episode of the Strong Tower Mental Health Podcast, licensed therapist and faith encourager Heidi Mortenson guides listeners through breaking free from the mental, emotional, and spiritual strongholds that keep us bound. Rooted in biblical truth and clinical insight, Heidi helps you identify lies from the enemy, renew your mind through God's Word, and walk boldly in your true identity as a child of God.

    This episode isn't just about awareness—it's about activation. You'll walk away with practical tools, Scripture-based declarations, and spiritual authority to overcome fear, shame, and lies that have held you back. Jesus has already won—now it's time to walk in that victory.

    🔍 In This Episode, You Will Discover:

    • 🌸 How to embrace your new identity in Christ (2 Corinthians 5:17)
    • ⚔️ What strongholds are and how the enemy uses them to distort truth (2 Corinthians 10:4–5)
    • 💡 How to renew your mind through biblical truth and declaration
    • 🕊️ The reality that the enemy is real—but defeated (1 Peter 5:8)
    • 🔥 What it means to walk in your God-given authority and freedom (Luke 10:19)
    • 💖 A powerful activation prayer and declaration segment to break lies and release truth over your life

    🙌 Activation: Breaking Lies & Declaring Truth

    Heidi leads listeners through a series of biblical declarations, breaking the lies of unworthiness, shame, and fear in the name of Jesus. You'll replace every false label with God's truth—declaring love, worth, beauty, and identity as a daughter or son of the King.

    "The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ." — 2 Corinthians 10:4-5

    "So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed." — John 8:36

  • 211. How to Hear God's Voice
    Oct 27 2025

    Do you believe that you can hear the voice of God? Do you know that God is speaking to you about many things all the time? Many Christians don't realize that as children we are designed to hear our father's voice – "I am the good shepherd; I know my sheep and my sheep know me." – John 10:14. We were created to operate in sync with God's voice for our life. In this episode I will talk about how we can hear the voice of God and identify ways that God is talking to us. You will grow in faith to know more about what God is trying to show you for your daily life and bigger decisions.

    John 10:27 "My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me."
