Get your joy back. When you have your joy, you’re showing God that you trust Him. When the enemy brings trouble, he expects you to fall apart. But when you say, “Yet will I rejoice,” you give the enemy a nervous breakdown. If he can’t steal your joy, he can’t defeat you.
Faith is a shield. Trusting that God is in control, declaring His promises, staying in peace. That’s going to thwart the plans of the enemy. That’s how you’re not moved by the trouble. You’re using your spiritual weapons that are mighty through God. Click here to watch: "Invisible Enemies" https://t.co/v5OAg8hxlL
You have exactly what you need to fulfill your assignment. What you’ve been through didn’t stop you; it prepared you. That setback didn’t disqualify you; it was necessary to get you ready for where God is taking you.
God loves to choose strangers: people that don’t seem like they fit, people that weren’t raised in faith. You wouldn’t be reading this if you weren’t chosen. Don’t go your whole life thinking you don’t measure up.
You can’t fight spiritual battles with physical weapons. What you’re up against may seem bigger, stronger. It feels like you’re surrounded. No, God has you in the palm of His hand. He wouldn’t have let you get in that problem if He couldn’t bring you out. Don't miss this powerful message, "Invisible Enemies" https://t.co/kNnMjb1SU6
When we give and serve together, lives are changed. As part of the Men’s Winning Challenge within our Men’s Ministry, hundreds gathered to pack essentials that will help families in Houston when disaster strikes.
We want to thank you for sowing generously and allowing us to keep our city provided for in times of need. ❤️
You may be uncomfortable for a season. It’s hard to stay in faith when things aren’t changing. But if you’ll dig down deep and pass the test, you’re going to come into favor that will last a long time.
The enemy meant it to stop your purpose, to push down your gifts. The good news is, God is going to use it to take you further. He has something much bigger, much better. Be inspired by this message from Joel, "From Trouble to Double". https://t.co/KpspxxmnN3
The enemy is called the accuser. He’d love for you to live down on yourself. He’ll remind you of every mistake you’ve ever made. It may all be true, but what he doesn’t tell you is that there’s another chance coming. God’s mercy is bigger than your mistakes.
We can all find reasons to live afraid, worried, uptight. But when you understand Who’s watching after you, Who’s ordering your steps, Who’s fighting your battles, Who’s holding back the darkness, then you can say with confidence, “I will not fear.”
Instead of being a prisoner of doubt, fear, guilt, switch over to being a prisoner of hope. Believe God is working. Check out this message from Joel! "From Trouble to Double": https://t.co/fzO8ZeVnAZ
When trouble comes, instead of being upset, have a new perspective. That trouble looks like a setback, but really it’s setting you up to come out with twice what you had before: twice the joy, twice the resources, twice the influence, twice the fulfillment.
Be a prisoner of hope. You’ve seen God do it before and He’ll do it again. That’s what sets you up to see the double, the abundance, the greatness of our God. Tune into Joel’s message today! "From Trouble to Double": https://t.co/fzO8ZeVnAZ
God sees who has wronged you, the bad breaks, the unfair situations. He doesn’t stop all the difficulties. He won’t keep you from all the trouble, but He said in Zechariah 9, “If you will be a prisoner of hope, I will restore double back to you.”
There will be seasons when it’s taking longer than you thought. That’s a time to prove to God who you are. You’re not weak. You’re a warrior. You don’t fall apart when trouble comes. You are strong in the Lord.
If you’re dwelling on the past, you won’t see the new thing. If you’re focused on who hurt you and what wasn’t fair, then you’ll miss your destiny. Forget the former things, quit dwelling on your mistakes. This is a new day.
To be the lamb, you have to swallow your pride. You can’t let your ego get the best of you. You have to rule your spirit. Rule your emotions. Rule your attitude. Click here to watch: "The Lion and the Lamb" https://t.co/KpspxxmnN3
When we’re off course, not making good decisions, running from God, He’ll come running to us. That doesn’t disqualify you. It's just the opposite. You’re who God chooses. He sees what’s in you. He knows your potential.
