Your life is too valuable to waste being distracted.
We minister the Word of God. The proclamation of the Gospel comes after individuals have opened their hearts to God and turned from themselves to others. Only then are they truly ready to hear and benefit fully from the Word of the Lord.
If you will focus on meeting other people’s needs, God will always make sure your needs are supplied. God will take care of your problems for you.
I think, for years, people have been pushed down by religion, and I don’t say that disrespectfully, but they’ve been shown a God that you can’t measure up to.
If you will lie about the little things, before long you’ll lie about bigger things.
When you acknowledge God, He will go before you and make the crooked places straight.
Keep on keeping on!!!
God wants to use you in spite of your weaknesses. Of God chose to use perfect people only, He’d have no one to use.
That’s what I feel like I’m called to do – to plant a seed of hope in people’s hearts.
Be a victor, not a victim.
Again I think my gift is bringing hope to everybody, and I don’t want someone to look at me and say, “I would listen to him, I like what he’s saying, but he’s this or that politically and that turns me off.”
Your best days are still out in front of you.
God’s dream is that you have an abundance, that you be totally out of debt, pay your house off, pay your credit cards off, and have so much overflow that you can be a blessing to everyone around you!
If your dream dies, dream another one. If things don’t work out the way you’ve planned, God has a better plan for you.
Your idea may not be exactly God’s idea, but I can promise you this: God’s way will be better than your way.
Hold on to that new, enlarge vision of victory that God has given you. Start expecting things to change in your favor. Dare to boldly declare that you are standing strong against the forces of darkness.
Take time to make a difference. Don’t just obsess about how you can make your life better. Think about how you can make somebody else’s life better as well.
When my dad founded our church, he used either a globe or a map of the world behind him. It was symbolic of what Christ said: to go forth and preach hope to the world. We believe in the cross, but we just continued with the globe.
No matter how many times you get knocked down, keep getting back up. God sees your resolve. He sees your determination. And when you do everything you can do, that’s when God will step in and do what you can’t do.
Truth is, no two people are completely compatible. We have to learn to become one. That means we may have to make sacrifices; we may have to overlook some things. We must be willing to compromise for the good of the relationship.
