We recently connected with Alana Moore and have shared our conversation below.

Hi Alana, thanks for joining us today. Can you tell us a bit about who your hero is and the influence they’ve had on you?

My hero in life is Christ Jesus for many reasons. In particularly, because of His devine love for me and us all. It’s really unfailing. I’ve read about the stories in the gospel (meaning the bible) of Him and even tuned in on the teachings of Christ from preachers but it wasn’t until I started to really seek Him out for myself was when I began to recieve a deeper understanding and revaluation on who He is and what He means to me personally.

Along this journey called life and even up to this present time I’m always amazed by Him and His presence within my life. It’s so tangible. He’s everything that I need, want, and desire and so much more, Which enables me to be a better person for myself, Him, my son, family, friends, and people abroad. He is my reality. My entire life embodies His relevancy as a whole. My dependency is completely in Him because He has proven this and continues to do so each and evey day of my life. It’s truly indescribable! His assurance is so sustainable on all levels that has caused me to developed a relationship with Him that has been so transforming for me, continuously. I’m so thankful that I know Him and I’m hopeful that my life is a representation of His love that can conquer anything. There is seriously no ending for this question because Hes never ending and If you ever have an encounter with Him, your life will never be the same.

Great, appreciate you sharing that with us. Before we ask you to share more of your insights, can you take a moment to introduce yourself and how you got to where you are today to our readers.

Greeting’s! For staters, My name is Alana S. Moore, who happens to be a woman of Great Faith, in God. Now this doesn’t exempt me from making mistakes or enduring lifes experiences rather negatively or positively, no not at all. My Faith in God is the essence on which my foundation is built unpon and is the ultimate source that I draw from daily (it sustains me).

I’m a survivor of multiple traumatic psychological episodes that were very torturous, about nine to be exact. One of which landed me onto the psychiatric ward for seventeen days, while eight months pregnant with my son. At age eighteen I was diagnosed with bipolar and over a decade later, then pared with insomnia. I must be transparent, the two of these together when they’re active is a horrific experience.

After undergoing the many things I’ve endured throughout my life from the tender age of five. I recognized that my battles were not just chapters in my life or eventful situations but an opportunity for me to serve others as a representation on how you successfully overcome them and win in the end by believing in the power of God. Without His devine interventions, that intercepted the plans of the enemy, I wouldn’t be alive and well (including my son). I quickly realized that it was no longer about me but to give hope unto others through my transparency of what I’d suffered. In hopes that it would ispire people to know that life can be lived well and balanced but sometimes you must be willing to fight to live, even when you want to give up.

At age fifteen, I envisioned myself writing a book. I actually verbalized it to my mother. So, some time go, I felt so compelled to write up my manuscript. I’m happy to say that it’s a reality now. I’m an author, of course for the purpose of serving people. This book is a credible story of how to endure lifes difficulties while grouned in Faith through God. It’s entitled “Faith and Manifestations: Overcoming Warfare Within the Mind.” Its accessible on Amazon and lulu platforms. If you Google my name, “Alana Starr Moore” my book will appear. This book serves as a means to ignite the light of God within us all that was placed within before the foundation of this earth. This light is a tool that is used for guidance, and to be utilized in our darkest moments that reflects who we’re as light carriers from our heavenly Father. Uniquely designed and aligned to our individualized personality type. It’s apart of our identity and purpose.

I found my purpose by using my life as an inspiration and it becomes more clear and evident to me as time progresss. Honestly, I’m so proud and greatful for many countless things that are blessings. However, I’m honored to have this book that gives hope an encouragement to those in need of it. I’m a kingdom ambassador of the Lord, living proof of answered prayers, and the miraculous! A tranformational speaker, if you will. It’s a pleasure to impact people lives regardless of how I may feel. I’ve condition myself to this state of mind through constant cultivation, why? Because it honors God. I love Him with sincerity. This is the posture of my heart. I personally choose to honor Him in every single detail area of my life, especially with my interactions with people.

Can you share a story from your journey that illustrates your resilience?

Of course! Back in 2023 I had my last episode that derived from an insurance discrepancy. The outcome of the situation prevented me from getting the medication I’d been on for five years consecutively without any episodes. Once I was denied access from the insurance company for the medication, I entered into psychological deficit and spiritual warzone for various reasons. Stress, worration, and the mental health challenges that were before me all mixed together became massive. All while trying to uphold and maintain my motherly duties, successfully.

During this time my son and I lived in another state. Two states over from my parents and immediate family members. I thought to myself on informing my parents of the situation and for their assistance but on the same note, I didn’t want to worry them. I felt like it was my issue and not theirs. On a personal note, I come from a very loving and super supportive family, in which I’m so greatful to God for but I wanted to face this obstacle on my own. I felt like I needed to prove to myself that I can beat it. This situation forced me to live a life of constant prayer unto God (more than the usual) that enable me to stay close to Him (in such a way), day in and day out. This was an experience like nothng I’ve ever gone through. I was unmedicated for nine days and alone with just me and my son.

I can honestly say that he was never mistreated, put in harms way, malnourished, neglected in any way, late to school, nore abused. And he remained at the top of his class. By the grace of God and His goodness I was able to carry on with our normal routine as usual without him noticing the serious affects it had on my mind and body. Each night was a complete struggle to sleep, causing me to be totally sleep deprived within those nine days. It was a constant spiritual warfare battle each day and all day long. I had no other choice but to rely and depend on my savior. I’d like to add that not everyone who has mental health challenges are violent and I’m one of them.

Now, on the contrary of things, I do not recommend anyone in a similar situation to do the same, as each of our situations are different. I highly recommend that you seek medical professionals immediately should you ever succumb to any psychological deficit. Also, I’m not discrediting the fact that your Faith in God and His power won’t work to no avail in any given situation, yet I suggest that you use wisdom and discernment on whats needed to determine the proper solution for your situation.

This ordeal was extremely challenging in my life that actually initiated my book writing process. Through my pain and disparity I was impregnated with it and that I’d soon give birth to it in order to help people. God turned a tragic matter into a triumphant outcome. I discoved that I had everything that I needed already within me, it was just a matter of learning how to access it. I discovered that most of the time it can be a mystery and a journey before our next assignment is actually revealed. And when it happens we learn and evolve into a better person with more knowledge on overcoming adversities successfully.

It’s not easy living a Faith driven life. I’ll be the first to say so. However, I’m completely determined and committed to live it out on purpose as a testament to others on what the power of God can do. I’m totally convinced that He can do all things but fail. Never underestimate the powerful God given abilities that is within you. They are the necessary tools to assist you in life.

Are there any books, videos or other content that you feel have meaningfully impacted your thinking?

Yes, the gospel (meaning the bible). The word of God has impacted my life in such an enormous way, far beyond words to express. It is my life manual. It has the ability to change your life completely, if you believe. From the gospel when applied you are able to live a life of abundance filled with the love of God, good health, wealth, prosperity in all areas of life, and beyond what you can imagine. As a believer (meaning you’re saved) your at an even greater advantage because from a spiritual perspective you’re seated with Christ in the heavenly realm. You can find this scripture in the book of Ephesians 2:6 KJV (chapter 2 verse 6). This scripture alone is so powerful in itself because it is proclaiming your citizenship in the kingdom of God, which enables you to walk in the fulfillment of His glorious power and authority as you navigate through life.
