We know what it’s like to struggle in marriage and want to quit.
After many very challenging years, we did. Seventeen years ago we separated and filed for divorce.
Then God did a miracle in our hearts, and we chose to work through our pain, forgive and evaluate our beliefs.
He showed us how to heal, reconcile, and rebuild with the right biblical foundation and tools. God redeemed our dead marriage.
Today, we are celebrating 30 years of marriage!
In this episode, my husband, Fred Snyder shares his perspective on what it takes to have a successful, fulfilling and God-led marriage.
While they are many keys to unlock a fruitful marriage, we only focus on three today.
We discuss
•what’s it look like to be the spiritual head of the household
•what is authentic spiritual leadership, where Jesus is the focus and model. (Matthew 20:20)
•God is a God of order and why that’s important in marriage.
•How does Jesus relate to His Bride and how does that apply to marriage.
•How to walk in humility, and overcome pride, fear and control.

Is Jeremiah 29:11 one of your favorite Bible verses? “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”
I talk to people every day who want to know the plan God has for them. They say, if He would tell me what to do, then I would do it.
Can you relate?
For many years, I was a human "doer." I was trying to do things to become something, and to get God to bless me. Then one day, my eyes, ears and heart were opened to what was God’s original plan. What did He intend from the very beginning, and how did Jesus fit into that?
In episode 52, I am going to share five main things that God originally intended when He created mankind, and how Jesus restored that plan. I will connect Genesis 1:26-31 with John 3:16, John 17:3 and John 10:10.
This is a segment from a live workshop I recently did called, “How To Live In God’s Best!” In the hour workshop, I share my biblical blueprint and have some activations where you can hear directly from the Lord yourself.
In this 58 minute workshop, I go into more detail in discussing:
- What is God’ Best for us?
- How can we access it?
- What does salvation actually mean?
God gave humans 5 key things to help them thrive, and how that is still His intention for today.
If you want to hear the complete 58 minute workshop including more in-depth Bible teaching with activations to help you hear from the Lord personally, go to

Episode 18: Learn How God Sees You In Christ, Your True Identity
Monday Sep 05, 2022
Monday Sep 05, 2022
For too many years, I did all of the Christian disciplines: read the Bible, prayed, went to church and serve faithfully…but had no clue how to relate to God on an intimate level. I certainly didn’t know about the role of the Holy Spirit in my life. I knew “about” God, but not as a loving Father!
One day, in 2006, I heard "a benediction” at the end of a bible radio show, and my ears and eyes were opened. It was 2 Corinthians 13:14 in the Message translation: “The amazing grace of the Master, Jesus Christ, the extravagant love of God, the intimate friendship of the Holy Spirit be with all of you.”
I realized I didn’t know God in this way, yet I desired for a more meaningful relationship with Him. This began a journey of discovery for me, to understand how to relate to all three persons of the Godhead/Trinity: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
In today’s episode, I share a recent live teaching I did with my good friend, Chris Cree, of New CREEations Ministries, and we discuss some great insights and the importance of how God wants to relate to us.
Key take-aways:
•Grace and Truth came through Jesus Christ. We dive into the Greek meaning of “grace” and how understanding grace changes everything.
•We must receive the love of Father God. Faith works through love and we must take time to get rooted and grounded in His love for us in order to love others well. (Ephesians 3:14-20)
•What fellowship or communion with the Holy Spirit looks like.
**** As my gift to you, I am offering a FREE training that will help you in your journey of knowing God more intimately and experiencing the life He desires you to live—His Best! I want to help you remove lies, receive Truth, and release who your were created to be—His representative here on earth! It’s time to live in His fullness and thrive!
Teaching with some activations where you can easily hear from God for yourself. Here's the LINK.

Do you want to learn how to receive God’s Best for you?
Do you want to hear God more confidently and have a more productive prayer life?
Today, I am sharing one of my group mentoring sessions from 2021, to help you grow in receiving from the Lord, to walk in His fullness of life.
*I have prayer and activations towards the end, so make sure you listen to the entire teaching to receive what He wants to share with you.
Jesus said unless we are like children, we won’t see the kingdom of God—His blessings and way of truly living. Children receive gifts with joy and that is how God wants us to receive from Him – freely and with joy. …Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be full. (John 16:24)
If you struggle with unworthiness in receiving gifts, or think you haven’t done enough to deserve one, then listen up and participate in these activations and you will be blessed!
We are His children and He desires that we live in His fullness and are expressions of Him on the earth. We are all on a journey of growing and knowing God more intimately. I want to help you go to a higher level in your faith journey!
Here’s a FREE gift: I am offering a FREE live workshop on September 7th at 8PM EST (7CST/6/MST/5PST) and I invite you to join me. I want to help you receive and activate God’s Best, so you can thrive personally, relationally and professionally. Click HERE

Need a reset or refocus for the remainder of this year?
With the new school year often brings more structure and routine so this is a perfect opportunity to reevaluate and refocus our goals both in every area of our life. Summer is coming to an end and the autumn season is approaching.
In episode 49, my close friend and guest, Frannie Foltz with Shine With Frannie, discuss the importance of taking time to reevaluate and refocus our lives, possibly restructure certain areas so we can grow and move forward in all aspects of our lives.
•Rest is required to reset so you can reevaluate, refocus and pursue your goals and dreams.
Resting really is relying upon and partnering with the Lord to lead and guide you into the direction that is for your life, where you can thrive instead of strive. (Matthew 11:28-30)
•Reset. Perhaps this hasn’t been your best year so far. You can push reset and refocus on the remainder of this year to prepare you for growth and increase in the years to come. You don’t have to wait until the new year! We have 131 days left in 2022, so let’s make the most of them TODAY! Procrastination steals from you. “Tomorrow is a thief of today.”
Key Scriptures mentioned (Romans 12:1-2, 1 Thessalonians 5:23-25 MSG)
•Redemption. Are there areas that you want the Lord to redeem? He is the God unlimited do-overs, so seek Him first and He will bring healing and restoration. (Isaiah 43:1, Joel 2:25-32)

Is fear holding you back from moving forward to pursue your dreams?
I talk to women every day how express some type of fear in various ways. I want to help you recognize them so you can stop limiting yourself and move forward with courage and boldness.
Today, I am going to discuss four main fears that prevent you from embracing change and then give you the antidote so you can succeed.
My heart’s desire is to see people thriving and living in the fullness of God. I have been mentoring women for decades and seeing their lives transformed by discovering who and whose they are. Life is too short to not live it to the fullest. I am fired up now more than ever to empower Christian women to become who God has created them to be and live in His Best.
I am offering a FREE live workshop on September 7th at 8PM EST (7CST/6/MST/5PST) and I invite you to join me. It’s my gift to you to help you unlock the Real you and thrive personally, relationally and professionally. Click HERE https://loriksnyder.com/resources/free-workshop/
Fear is a bully, and for so many years it bossed me around. Once I recognized the root causes, I was able to move forward despite being fearful. Here are some thoughts about fear:
- Any time you are growing or pursuing your goals and dreams, fear will show up.
- With any type of success, there are risks involved, and fear will try to shut you down.
- There is a difference between danger and fear. Danger is real…fear is a story we tell ourselves.
Four Fears That Keep You From Achieving Your Dreams:
- Fear of the unknown.
- Fear of man
- Fear of failure.
- Fear of success.
Answer: Believe God’s Perfect love for you. God is love. (1 John 4:8)
“Love never brings fear, for fear is always related to punishment. But love’s perfection drives the fear of punishment far from our hearts. Whoever walks constantly afraid of punishment has not reached love’s perfection.” 1 John 4:18 TPT
Focus on how much God is FOR you, leading you, helping you, with you. He will give you the courage to boldly move forward.
He is for you, so who can be against you—except yourself. Stop self-sabotaging! It’s time to start living boldly, with confidence that God is working in, through and for you!
Here are some other episodes to help you with overcoming fear:
