Don’t Settle Where
You Are
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE
“...No eye has seen, no ear has heard, and no mind has imagined what God has prepared for those who love him.”
(1 Corinthians 2:9, NLT)
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!
A PRAYER FOR TODAY
Father, thank You for big dreams and visions for my life. I trust that You are taking me higher and leading me to increase, first in You, and then in my influence in the world around me. I refuse to settle and trust that You are at work in Jesus’ name! Amen.
— Joel & Victoria Osteen

Today's word

Trusting God – Do you have faith –? What is faith – faith gives substance to the things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. So how is ones faith tested –? 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...

Know your strength! This question has been asked over and over again – Who do the strong go to? Have you ever felt like you have the answers for everyone else, always there for everyone, but when you need assistance you cannot help yourself and there is no one there to help you? Why?  Because God has equipped you with the gift to be a blessing to others, however you must remember the strong go to God (not man/woman). We must go to him in spirit and in truth seeking guidance and wisdom - always remembering to repent 1 st . With an open mind and open heart trusting and believing that the storm is over and you shall be rewarded - it is time to reap what you have sown.  Its OK that you went through publicly …remember a little rain falls on the just and unjust alike, keep the faith and stay strong the battle is over – you won – stop worrying – its harvest time – for everything there is a season – and now this is your season to walk in your anointing – to ...
