Dunamis Power: Walking in God’s Image with Dr. Theresa M Bell

Episode Overview

Faith without power is like a mirror image: it may look right but cannot act, so believers are urged to walk in God’s true image.
Prayers need real desire and belief from the heart, not empty phrases, to "move God" and bring change.
Dominion begins with control over thoughts, self-talk and what a person chooses to listen to and watch.
Habits are formed through repeated actions and conditioning, so changing daily inputs can reshape behaviour over time.
When Dr. Bell prayed sincerely to quit drugs and gave the struggle to God, she reports becoming clean and staying that way for decades.

“When I got ready to stop doing drugs and everything, I prayed from the heart, and I was able to quit cold turkey because I gave it to God.”

How do people find strength in their journey to sobriety? This instalment of **Resilient Truths** centres on "dunamis" – the Holy Ghost power Dr. Theresa M Bell says many believers talk about but rarely tap into. The focus is clear: learning to walk in the image of God so that faith isn’t just a Sunday look, but a lived, daily reality. Dr.

Bell breaks down "dunamis" as God’s power resting in the believer through the Holy Spirit, and links it directly to practical change. She challenges people who have "the form of godliness" but no power, comparing it to a mirror image that looks real but can’t do anything. You’ll hear her repeat that the Holy Spirit is not "just sitting in there to look cute" – the aim is to lean on that power, rather than on personal understanding.

A big theme is intentional, heartfelt prayer. Dr. Bell warns against "vain glory" prayers and casual phrases thrown at God with no real desire behind them.

She shares her own story of leaving drugs behind, saying, "When I got ready to stop doing drugs and everything, I prayed from the heart… and I was able to quit cold turkey because I gave it to God." For anyone dealing with addiction or destructive habits, this moment stands out as a practical example of faith applied to recovery. The conversation also digs into how thoughts, words and hearing shape a person’s life. Dr.

Bell touches on psychology terms like conditioning and cognitive distortions, connecting them with scripture about the heart, the blood and the image of God. She urges people to guard what they listen to, watch what they speak, and examine their core beliefs if they want different results in a new year.

If you’re asking how faith, mindset and the Holy Spirit might help you change your life, this episode is a strong place to start – what would happen if your prayers and self-talk began to match what you say you believe?
