Don’t let the comfort keep you from the calling. Where God is taking you is going to require risks. You’re going to have to leave what’s familiar and step into the unknown.

"Father, I thank You that Your joy is my strength and that laughter is a good medicine. Help me not to carry burdens that You never intended me to carry. Help me to relax and enjoy the power of laughter. In Jesus' name, Amen!" #NationalLetsLaughDay#JoyceQuote
We don’t grow when everything is going our way. We grow when we have to stretch, when we’re uncomfortable, when we’re a little bit nervous. Sometimes God will shake things up. He’ll use the scary places to move us into our destiny.
What God is about to do in your life is not going to be done in a corner, in secret, where nobody notices. People are going to see the favor, see the healing, the protection, the promotion, the abundance.
When you tell the past, "It is finished. I am blessed. I am victorious." In the unseen realm, chains are loosed, strongholds are broken. Get this encouraging message from Joel, "It Is Finished": https://t.co/spV2a4HmrT
When things come that disrupt your place of peace, stay calm, be still, and know that He is God. The enemy brought that storm to try to discourage you, to stop you. What He didn’t realize is God had a plan to use it to increase you, to promote you, to launch you to a new level.
That season of silence doesn’t mean God has forgotten about you. God is still working. You may not realize it, but He’s getting you prepared. Your time is coming.
What the enemy means for harm, God is turning for good. It’s just a matter of time before you see a surge of God’s favor. As much as you were pulled back, He’s going to thrust you that much ahead.
You need to be exposed to new levels so you can go to new levels. Don’t be intimidated by someone that’s further along; be inspired. You need good mentors.
Not every friend will inspire you, but you should have one or two that light a fire on the inside—that push you forward. If you only invest in people that are at the same level as you, you’ll get stuck.
