When you start declaring His promises, when you start speaking what He says about you, not only is faith going to rise in your heart, but it’s going to change your perspective.
Sometimes we let fear hold us back. “What if I do this and it doesn’t work?” But God is not going to let you down. Don’t let fear and doubt keep you from seeing the greatness of our God.
Be inspired by this message from Joel, "Extra Mile Blessings": https://t.co/KpspxxmnN3
When you’re helping other people, you think you’re doing them a favor, but really, you’re doing yourself a favor. As you help someone else shine, God is going to make sure that you shine.
It’s good to take advice, it’s good to listen to wise counsel, but nobody can hear what you hear on the inside. Other people may mean well, but they don’t know what God put in you. They don’t know the dreams, the desires, the calling.
God is in control. He knows what’s best for you. You’re not going to understand it all. If you did, you wouldn’t need any faith. Trust Him unconditionally.
Before you see dreams come to pass, before you see healing, promotion, restoration, don’t be surprised if you find obstacles, disappointments, setbacks. That’s a test. Are you going to get discouraged and give up, or are you going to have “I still believe” faith?
Your time is coming. It’s not too late; you haven’t missed it; circumstances didn’t stop it. What God put in your heart is still on the way.
Listen now to this new message from Joel, "I Still Believe": https://t.co/KpspxxmnN3
Don’t get talked out of your dreams; switch over to “I still believe.” I still believe means the disappointment is not going to cause you to get discouraged. The negative chatter and people who don’t believe in you are not going to dampen your faith.
When you have "I still believe" faith, miracles are set in motion, angels go to work. God will make favor, healing, divine connections happen that seem unlikely, out of the ordinary. Are you letting your circumstances talk you out of what God put in your heart?
God didn’t create you to always be in the background. If you'll keep being faithful, your time is coming. God is going to take you from the background to the foreground. It’s going to happen suddenly.
Sometimes, instead of celebrating you, people will get jealous, try to pull you down, get you into conflict. Don’t take the bait. It’s a distraction. Keep running your race. Stay focused on your goals.
Don’t get distracted trying to make peace with someone that doesn’t really want peace. It’s not about you; it’s about the favor on your life. It’s about the blessing God put on you.
Get rid of the distractions. No more living to please people, no more worried about what others think, no more fighting battles that don’t matter. This is your hour. It’s time to get focused. It’s time to run your race.
God gave you breath to be here. He could have chosen anyone, but He chose you and me. Honor God by being happy, living grateful, seeing the good in life.
If you’ll stay in faith, it’s going to happen sooner than it looks. You don’t see any sign of it, it looks like the difficulty is permanent, but then suddenly, things are going change. God is going to hasten His Word; He’s going to speed it up.
