God controls time. He knows how to accelerate your dreams, accelerate your healing, accelerate what you’re believing for. That’s why you can’t judge your future based on the progress you’ve seen in the past.

God is not going to give up on you. The dream He put in you is still alive. You may have let a dream go to sleep. It didn’t work out the first time, but when God wakes it up, you’re not going on your own. God is going with you. He’s going to strengthen you and empower you.

Declare, “The Lord is my Shepherd I shall not fear. No weapon formed against me will prosper." When you do that, you’ll have a peace and trust knowing that God has you in the palm of His hand.

The Spirit of God will cause you to move forward, to continue on and pursue your purpose, despite what’s trying to stop you. You may be going through a tough season now. It feels overwhelming. On our own, by ourselves, we would get stuck there. When we get knocked down, we’d stay down. But here’s the good news, you can move forward while still hurting, you can trust even though there are unanswered questions, you can praise through the pain, you can speak victory in the middle of trouble.
God has crowned you with His favor. People don’t determine who you are. They don’t decide your worth and value. When your circumstances are saying just the opposite, you have to say, “I am who God says I am.”
Stay open. God’s ways are not our ways. Sometimes the brook will dry up, sometimes the manna will cease, sometimes someone will walk away. Those aren’t random. They are necessary endings. It’s the hand of God closing one door to open another door.
There are times we’re supposed to fight, when we need to take action. David fought Goliath. But you have to make sure that the battle is between you and your destiny. If not, it’s a distraction.
Don’t get stuck looking back, trying to figure out, “Why didn’t this work out, why did they treat me this way, why did my business slow down?” Just keep moving forward, honoring God, knowing that it is a necessary ending so that God can do a new thing.
The Psalmist said, “We went through the fire, through the flood, to a place of great abundance.” You won’t see great abundance without going through some fires, through some floods, through some storms.
Be inspired by this message from Joel, "Trusting God's Ways". https://t.co/v5OAg8hxlL
You may go through the fire, through the flood, through the famine, but favor is coming. The favor of God is going to open doors you couldn’t open. The favor of God is going to take you from the background to the foreground.
I used to just thank God for my open doors, but now I’ve learned to thank Him for my closed doors. God closing a door is not only protecting you, but it’s setting you up for something greater.
