God Himself has blessed you. People may come against you, but God has favored you. The opposition may be stronger, but God has empowered you. The giant looks too big, but God is fighting for you. If you will arise, you’re going to shine.
Quit discounting yourself. Quit thinking you can’t pray for something big, you don’t have the faith, you don’t come from the right family. The requirement is: Are you a human? Since you are, God says you can ask for things that seem impossible.
You’re not inconveniencing God by asking big. God being good to you doesn’t stop Him from being good to someone else. No, God has unlimited favor, unlimited power. The Scripture says, “It is the Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom.” Maybe He’s just waiting for you to ask.
Praise is what’s going to cause it to turn around. While you’re waiting for things to change, believing for breakthroughs, that’s when more than ever, you need to give God praise. Praise activates His power.
It may be unfair; you don’t understand it. Don’t just go through it; grow through it. God sees what’s happening. That’s one chapter in the book that’s He’s written for your life. There are many great chapters up ahead.
Maybe today you’re fighting the feeling of not being worthy. You know God is calling you, but you feel like a stranger. You don’t look like you fit. You have weaknesses. This is the beauty of our God. While we were yet strangers, while we were still far off, God, in His great mercy, chose us.
The enemy has no new tricks. He’s going to bring voices that try to stop your purpose. Sometimes it's an outside voice, other times it’s an inner voice. If you’re not disciplined to tune out the wrong voices, then you’ll start making wrong choices.
Are the voices in your ear dream stealers or dream releasers? Block out the negativity, the naysayers, the never-going-to-happen voices. Instead, surround yourself with people who speak faith, life, and victory.
