TODAY’S WORD from Joel and Victoria
|
|
God did not create you to
live a little life with little dreams, little goals, little passion, little
influence. God thinks big. He thinks abundance. He thinks expansive. He told
the Israelites, “I am bringing you into a wide land, a spacious land flowing with
milk and honey.” God has something bigger, something better, something more
rewarding in front of you. Don’t get comfortable where you are. It’s easy to
think, “Well, God’s blessed me. I’m happy. I’m healthy. I have no
complaints.” That’s good to always be grateful. You should learn to be happy
where you are, but don’t settle where you are. God never performs His
greatest victories in the past. They’re always in the future.
Remember today, you haven’t
touched the surface of what God has in store for you. He’s going to open
doors you never dreamed would open. He’s going to bring talent out of you
that you didn’t know you had! You’re going to see explosive blessings that
thrust you to a new level. Keep praying, keep hoping, keep believing and
don’t settle where you are. Embrace the blessing God has in store for your
future!

name! Amen.

When the going gets tough do we abandon our God – do we jump ship because we are “going through” The answer is NO , as Christians we must keep the faith – even when it does not look good or feel good – you have to know its working for the good – you must learn the lesson – the season of testing – your harvest season is over – it’s time for reaping your reward – you stood the good fight - they lied on you, they cheated on you, they ignored you, your finances fell so below it’s a wonder you are still standing- and yet through it all you kept harvesting and trusting – storing up on his word and planting good seeds. 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...
