TODAY’S WORD from Joel and Victoria
|
|
Are you ready for a new
chapter in your life? Sometimes, in order to move forward into the blessing
God has for you, you have to be willing to let go of the old. The things that
are behind you are not nearly as important as what is out in front of you. It’s
time to get ready for the new!
You may have had some unfair
things happen, things that you don’t understand; but let me tell you, you
have come too far to stop now. Instead of allowing those things to hold you
back, why don’t you let go and take a step of faith into the new? It’s time
to get a new, bigger vision; it’s time to get a new, fresher outlook; it’s
time to rise up with a new attitude! Instead of settling where you are, pick
up and move forward. Have the attitude that says, “I may not understand it;
it may not have been fair, but I am not getting stuck on this page. I know
God has a new chapter for me — a chapter filled with blessings, favor and
victory!”

The bible says : Ecclesiastes 3:1-22 - For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven: a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to pl...
