Well I Think A Lot Of Times We're Putting Things Off And I'm Going To Do It Later. I'm Going To Break This Bad Habit Or I'm Going To Pursue This Dream Or I'm Going To Treat My Spouse Better.

Putting Things Off

I Just Want To Continue To Grow And Be Open To What God Wants To Do. I Guess My Main Goal Is Just To Continue To Reach People The Best I Can, Hopefully Help Impact Their Lives And Just Change Culture For Better.

Don't Settle In The Land Of Barely Enough. That Is Where You Are, It Is Not Who You Are. That's Your Location, It's Not Your Identity. No Matter What It Looks Like, Have An Abundant Mentality.

God Wants To Use You In Spite Of Your Weaknesses. Of God Chose To Use Perfect People Only, He’d Have No One To Use

Replace Those Thoughts Of Worry With Thoughts Of Hope, Faith, And Victory.

I Wouldn't Ever Say If You're Having Tough Times Then There Must Be Something Wrong With You Or Your Attitude. Life's A Fight. It's A Good Fight Of Faith. I Encourage People To Stay Up, Stay Hopeful, Stay Faith-filled.

I Feel Like When I Stay Focused On Encouraging People, And Giving Them Hope, And Helping Them Live Their Everyday Life, I Think That's Where I Can Have The Most Impact.

I Tell People All The Time, Preached A Couple Sundays About It. I'm For Everybody. You May Not Agree With Me, But To Me It's Not My Job To Try To Straighten Everybody Out.

When You Reach Out To Hurting People, That’s When God Is Going To Make Sure Your Needs Are Supplied. When You Focus On Being A Blessing, God Makes Sure That You Are Always Blessed In Abundance.

There's Pros And Cons Of A Big Church. Cons Is I Don't Get To Know Everybody, I Don't Get To Go To Their Ballgame, I Don't Get To Marry Everybody, But The Pros Are You Get All This Community, 800 Ushers Come In To Serve, Getting There At 7 In The Morning On Their Day Off And Coming In On Saturday To Make All Those Wafers.

You'll Never Rise Any Higher Than The Way You See Yourself.

Gays Are Some Of The Nicest, Kindest, Most Loving People In The World.

When God Puts Something In Your Heart And Deep Down You Know It’s A Destiny Moment, Don’t Wait For Ten Confirmations. Do What God Is Asking You To Do Now.

My Parents Were The Same In The Pulpit As They Were At Home. I Think That's Where A Lot Of Preachers' Kids Get Off Base Sometimes. Because They Don't See The Same Things At Both Places.

The Sad Truth Is, If You Push Hard Enough, And If You’re So Stubborn That You Must Have Things Your Way, God Will Sometimes Allow You To Undertake A Project Without His Blessing Or At The Wrong Time. The Problem With That, Of Course, Is When You Start Something In Your Own Strength And In Your Own Timing, You’re Going To Have To Finish It And Maintain It In Your Own Strength.

I'm Blessed To Be A Blessing To Someone Else.

Every Setback Is A Setup For A Comeback!

Your Best Days Are Still Out In Front Of You

When Thoughts Tell You It’s Too Late, Dismiss Them. You Haven’t Dreamed Your Best Dream. You Haven’t Run Your Best Race.

Ask God To Give You The Strength To Endure, And Rest Assured, He Will Take Care Of You.

It's In The Difficult Times That We're Growing And You Can't Just Rebuke Everything Hard. We've Got To Endure It And Fight The Good Fight Of Faith And Pass The Test.

People Have The Right To Their Opinion And You Have The Right To Ignore It.

I Don't Have All The Answers.

No Matter How Many Times You Get Knocked Down, Keep Getting Back Up.

Getting Back Up

God Wants To Increase You Financially, By Giving You Promotions, Fresh Ideas And Creativity

You Need To Get Ready Because I Have Explosive Blessings Coming Your Way.

Make Up Your Mind That No Matter What Comes Your Way, No Matter How Difficult, No Matter How Unfair, You Will Do More Than Simply Survive. You Will Thrive In Spite Of It.

This Is Not The Time To Shrink Back In Fear. Move Forward In Faith. Get Up Every Morning Knowing You Are Gifted.

There’s A Lot That Is Good In Your Life-don’t Take It For Granted. Don’t Get So Focused On The Struggles That You Miss The Gift Of Today

I Want To Challenge You Today To Get Out Of Your Comfort Zone. You Have So Much Incredible Potential On The Inside. God Has Put Gifts And Talents In You That You Probably Don't Know Anything About.

Gifts And Talents

Jesus Was Saying That You Can't Have A Larger Life With Restricted Attitudes.

Your Past Does Not Determine Who You Are. Your Past Prepares You For Who You Are To Become.

The Moment You Speak Something Out, You Give Birth To It. This Is A Spiritual Principle, And It Works Whether What You Are Saying Is Good Or Bad, Positive Or Negative.

When You Go Through Enough Dark Places, You Don't Complain About Little Things. You Don't Lose Your Joy Because You Got Stuck In Traffic; You Don't Get Offended Because A Coworker Was Rude To You. You've Been Through Too Much To Let That Sour You.

God Is Preparing You For Greater Things. He's Going To Take You Further Than You Thought Possible, So Don't Be Surprised When He Asks You To Think Better Of Yourself And To Act Accordingly.

The Ultimate Connection Is When You Are Connected To The Creator Of The Universe.

No Matter What You've Gone Through In The Past, No Matter How Many Setbacks You've Suffered Or Who Or What Has Tried To Thwart Your Progress, Today Is A New Day, And God Wants To Do A New Thing In Your Life.

It May Look Like The Difficulty Is Going To Defeat You. But You Need To Keep Telling Yourself, "this Sickness Can't Take My Life." "this Cancer Can't Defeat Me." "no Bad Break, No Disappointment, No Accident Can Shorten One Second Of My Divine Destiny."

I've Always Been Very Happy. I've Always Been Easy Going And I've Always Been Very Encouraging; It's Just My Personality.

You Will Never Change What You Tolerate.

Part Of My Message Is That God Never Said That We Weren't Going To Have Difficulties, But You Know What, He Said To Stay Full Of Joy And I'm Going To Help You Overcome. So I Think That Is What Resonates With People And Helps Draw So Many People. Because It Is Not A Message That You Are Barely Going To Make It, You're A Victim. We Are Not Victims, We Are Victors.

Do Yourself A Favor; Don’t Wear Yourself Out Trying To Please Everybody. Your Time Is Too Valuable.

I Declare That God Has A Great Plan For My Life. He Is Directing My Steps. And Even Though I May Not Always Understand How, I Know My Situation Is Not A Surprise To God. He Will Work Out Every Detail To My Advantage. In His Perfect Timing, Everything Will Turn Out Right. This Is My Declaration.

You Didn't Just Show Up On Planet Earth By Accident.. You Were Handpicked By Almighty God.

Salvation And Christ's Love Is A Gift. You Don't Earn It. You've Got To Receive That Gift. I Think One Of The Most Important Things Is Starting Off The Day Forgiving Others And Forgiving Yourself. You Learn From Your Mistakes, But I Don't Think You Have To Drag Them Back Into Today.

Your Situation May Look Impossible, But Don't Ever Rule Out The Favor Of God.

I Declare God Is Going Before Me Making Crooked Places Straight. He Has Already Lined Up The Right People, The Right Opportunities And Solutions To Problems I Haven't Had. No Person, No Sickness, No Disappointment, Can Stop His Plan. What He Promised Will Come To Pass.

True Love Turns Words And Feelings Into Actions.

One Of The Main Reasons That We Lose Our Enthusiasm In Life Is Because We Become Ungrateful..we Let What Was Once A Miracle Become Common To Us. We Get So Accustomed To His Goodness It Becomes A Routine.

You Know What? I'm Not Going To Beat Myself Up. I Did The Best I Can Do, And So I'm Going To Believe That - I'm Going To Believe Good Things About Myself.

No Matter How Dark And Gloomy It Looks In Your Life Right Now, If You'll Release The Weight Of Those Burdens, You Will See The Sun Break Forth.

Every Setback Means You're One Step Closer To Seeing The Dream Come To Pass.

You Have To Come To Your Closed Doors Before You Get To Your Open Doors... What If You Knew You Had To Go Through 32 Closed Doors Before You Got To Your Open Door? Well, Then You'd Come To Closed Door Number Eight And You'd Think, 'great, I Got Another One Out Of The Way'... Keep Moving Forward.

I'm Not Leading Them To Some False God Or Something Like That.

Every Day We Have Plenty Of Opportunities To Get Angry, Stressed Or Offended. But What You're Doing When You Indulge These Negative Emotions Is Giving Something Outside Yourself Power Over Your Happiness. You Can Choose To Not Let Little Things Upset You.

Sometimes In Life, A Fog Sets In And You Don't Know Which Way Is The Right Direction. Every Voice May Tell You It's Not Going To Happen, But God Has Placed A Promise In Your Heart. Refuse To Listen To Those Voices. Keep Believing.

Where God Gives Vision He Always Provides Provision

It's Better To Become Who God Created You To Be Than To Try To Promote Yourself To Become Something You're Not.

The Prerequisite To Loving Others Is To Love Yourself. If You Don't Have A Healthy Respect For Who You Are, And If You Don't Learn To Accept Yourself Faults And All, You Will Never Be Able To Properly Love Other People.

When You Have Big Dreams, You’re Going To Have Big Challenges. If You Were An Average Person You Would Have Average Problems.

Don't Confuse Small With Insignificant.

Some People Keep God In A Sunday Morning Box And Say, 'hey, I Did My Religious Duty.' That's Fine, But The Scripture Says To Pray Without Ceasing. And I Think That Means All Through The Day You're Talking To God. Even If It's In Your Thoughts.

Life's Too Short To Spend It Trying To Keep Others Happy. You Can't Please Everyone. To Fulfill Your Destiny, Stay True To Your Heart.

It Is Better To Be Lonely Than Allow People Who Are Not Going Anywhere Keep You From Your Destiny.

That’s Why It Is Important To Enjoy The Journey Not Just The Destination. In This World, We Will Never Arrive At A Place Where Everything Is Perfect And We Have No More Challenges. As Admirable As Setting Goals And Reaching Them Maybe, You Can’t Get So Focused On Accomplishing Your Goals That You Make The Mistake Of Not Enjoying Where You Are Right Now.

Be The One To Stand Out In The Crowd.

Stand Out From The Crowd

I'm Honest Enough To Say I Don't Know Everything. You Know, I Don't. I Don't Understand All Of God. I Don't Understand, You Know, Some Kind Of Why Bad Things Happen.

Fear And Faith Have Something In Common. They Both Ask Us To Believe In Something We Cannot See.

Your Destiny Is Too Great, Your Assignment Too Important, Your Time Too Valuable. Don't Let Fear Intimidate You.

You May Be Sitting Around Waiting For God To Change Your Circumstances. Then You’re Going To Be Happy, Then Your’re Going To Have A Good Attitude, Then You’re Going To Give God Praise. But God Is Waiting On You To Get Up On The Inside. When You Do Your Part, He’ll Begin To Change Things And Work Supernaturally In Your Life.

Don't Grow Accustomed To Living With Less, Doing Less, And Being Less To The Point That You Eventually Sit Back And Accept It.

Your Thoughts About Your Circumstances Have You Down. On The Other Hand, You Can Be In One Of The Biggest Battles Of Your Life, And Still Be Filled With Joy And Peace And Victory - If You Simply Learn How To Choose The Right Thought. It’s Time To Think About What You’re Thinking About.

Sustaining Faith Is What Sets You Through Those Dark Nights Of The Soul When You Don’t Know Where To Go Or What To Do, And It Seems That You Can’t Last Another Day…but Because Of Your Faith In God, You Do.

Sometimes You Need Faith And Victory Spoken Over Your Life. Words Have Created Power. When You Receive Them Into Your Spirit, They Can Ignite Seeds Of Increase On The Inside.

Just Because You’ve Come To A Dead End, It’s Not Time To Give Up. Find A Different Route And Keep Pressing Forward.

There Are People In Your Path Just So You Can Be A Blessing To Them. Anytime You Do Good For Others, You Are Sowing A Seed For God To Be Good To You.

I'm For Everybody. You May Not Agree With Me, But To Me It's Not My Job To Try To Straighten Everybody Out. The Gospel Is Called The Good News. My Message Is A Message Of Hope, That's God's [message] For You. You Can Live A Good Life No Matter What's Happened To You.

It Doesn't Matter Who Likes You Or Doesn't Like You, All That Matters Is That God Likes You. He Accepts You, He Approves Of You.

Do Not Speak Defeat, Speak Victory.

You Can Become All God Created You To Be Even If You've Had Difficulties, Even If You Weren't Born Into A Good, Loving Family, God Still Has A Plan For Your Life.

Isn't It Funny How Babies Laugh A Lot? I Read A Toddler, A Young Child Laughs 300 Times A Day. The Average Adult Laughs, Like, Four Times A Day. God Put It In Them. He Put The Laugh In Us, But I Think Sometimes We Let Life Get Us Down, You Know, Have Bad Breaks, And We Lose Our Breaks.

Again I Think My Gift Is Bringing Hope To Everybody, And I Don't Want Someone To Look At Me And Say, "i Would Listen To Him, I Like What He's Saying, But He's This Or That Politically And That Turns Me Off."

Men, Learn To Speak Blessings Over Your Wife And You Will See That Woman Rise To A New Level. She Will Respond To Your Praise And Encouragement. Your Words Don't Have To Be Poetic, Fancy, Or Profound. Tell Her Simply But Sincerely, "you're A Great Mother To Our Children. And You Are A Great Wife To Me. I'm So Glad I Can Always Count On You."

Happiness Is Always A Choice. You Can't Wait For Circumstances To Get Better. You Have To Create Your Own Good Fortune. So Look For Ways To Be Happy Every Day.

Positive Thinking

I Believe Here's What The Bible Teaches And From The Christian Faith This Is What I Believe.

The More You Talk About Negative Things In Your Life, The More You Call Them In. Speak Victory Not Defeat.

If You Have A Big Challenge Today, That Just Means You Have A Big Destiny.

God Never Said That We Wouldn’t Have Unfair Situations, That We Wouldn’t Experience Loss. But He Promised If We Would Stay In Faith, He Would Restore Everything That Was Stolen.

Today Is A New Day, So Rise Up And Move Forward Into The Victory God Has Prepared For You!

Positive Thinking

So Many People Say, "i Just Don't Have A Good Job, Or My Marriage Is Not Where It's Supposed To Be." Really It's Excuse After Excuse To Not Be Happy. To Me It's A Waste. I'm Going To Look At What's Right And Not What's Wrong In My Life. I'm Alive, I'm Healthy, And You Know, A Good Thing To Remember Is Somebody's Got It A Lot Worse Than We Do.

I'm Healthy As Can Be - Not An Ache Or A Pain. A Lot Of My Prayer Is Thanking The Lord That I Am Healthy. I Pray For Long Life And Good Health.

Next Time You're Tempted To Be Upset, Frustrated, Offended, Remind Yourself, It's A Part Of That Ten Percent Of Things In Life That You Can't Control - But You Can Control How You Respond.

When You Are Grateful, That Allows God To Do Great Things In Your Life.

I Try To Look On All The Great Things God's Done, And Not Focus On The Negative. It's A Perspective.

God's Used Me To Help Turn Their Life Around Or Give Them Hope, You Know? It's Very Rewarding

Learn To Trust His Timing. Don't Get In A Hurry; Don't Grow Impatient; Don't Try To Force Doors Open. Don't Try To Make Things Happen In Your Own Strength. Let God Do It His Way.

We're Going To Bring Our Core Message Of Hope And How God Is A Good God Who's On Our Side.

God Can Cause Opportunity To Find You. He Has Unexpected Blessings Where You Suddenly Meet The Right Person, Or Suddenly Your Health Improves, Or Suddenly You're Able To Pay Off Your House. That's God Shifting Things In Your Favor.

In Difficult Times, We're Not Supposed To Quit Believing; We're Not Supposed To Quit Growing.

I Don't Go Down The Road Of Condemning.

If You Cannot Get Along With Yourself, You'll Never Be Able To Get Along With Other People.

Sometimes We Look Back And 10 Years From Now We Think, 'boy, Those Were Great Old Days.' Well, You Know, We're Living In The Good Old Days.

I Just Wanted To Get The Message That God Had Put Into My Heart Into Another Form, Because I Knew The Print Media Would Reach A Different Group Of People.

What You Receive Is Directly Connected To What You Believe

A Small Pot Boils Quick. You Can Tell Much About The Depth Of One's Character By How Quickly He 'boils'.

Faith Is All About Trusting God Even When You Don't Understand His Plan.

Mormonism Is A Little Different, But I Still See Them As Brothers In Christ.

Don't Settle For Mediocrity; Never Let Good Enough Be Good Enough.

Bad Habits Are Easy To Develop But Difficult To Live With. Good Habits Are Difficult To Develop, But Easy To Live With. If You Are Willing To Be Uncomfortable For Little While, So You Can Press Past The Initial Pain Of Change, In The Long Run, Your Life Will Be Much Better.

The Gospel Is Called The Good News. My Message Is A Message Of Hope, That's God's [message] For You.

Message Of Hope

I Believe That God Breathed Life Into Every Person And That Every Person Is Made In The Image Of God And You Have Accept Them As They Are, On Their Journey. I'm Not Here To Preach Hate Or Push People Down.

Many Times, We Miss Out On God's Best Because We Give Up Too Soon. We Don't Realize How Close We Are To Victory.

God Has Already Done Everything He's Going To Do. The Ball Is Now In Your Court. If You Want Success, If You Want Wisdom, If You Want To Be Prosperous And Healthy, You're Going To Have To Do More Than Meditate And Believe; You Must Boldly Declare Words Of Faith And Victory Over Yourself And Your Family.

When You Center Life Around Yourself, Not Only Do You Miss Out On God's Best, But You Rob Other People Of The Joy And Blessings That God Wants To Give Them Through You.

Most Of The Criticism I Get Is That I Am Too Positive And Too Hopeful... In My Words, I Don't Beat People Down Enough.

Whatever Follows 'i Am' Will Always Come Looking For You!

When You Are Tempted To Get Discouraged, Remind Yourself That According To God’s Word, Your Future Is Getting Brighter; You Are On Your Way To A New Level Of Glory. You May Think You’ve Got A Long Way To Go, But You Need To Look Back At How Far You’ve Already Come. You May Not Be Everything You Want To Be But Atleast You Can Thank God That You’re Not What You Used To Be.

Too Often We Make The Mistake Of Remembering What We Should Forget-our Hurts, Failures And Disappointments -and We Forget What We Should Remember-our Victories, Accomplishments And The Times We Have Made It Through.

My Actions Will Follow My Expectations.

I Don't Want To Just Preach To The Church. I Feel Like I Have A Broader Message.

You Can Live Your Life Angry, Bitter, Mad At Somebody Or Even Guilty, Not Letting Go Of Your Own Mistakes, But You Won't Receive The Good Things God Has In Store.

I'm Getting Better Every Day In Every Way.

You Can Change Your World By Changing Your Words... Remember, Death And Life Are In The Power Of The Tongue.

Life's A Fight. It's A Good Fight Of Faith.

Fight The Good Fight

You Have Greatness In You. The Key Is To Get It Out.

We Live In A Society That Likes To Kick People When They’re Down. Don’t Be A Fair-weather Friend. Stick With People. They Need You More In The Tough Times Than They Do In The Good Times.

Don't Put A Question Mark Where God Has Put A Period.

You Have To Come To Your Closed Doors Before You Come To Your Open Doors

Bottom Line: God Will Not Allow Any Person To Keep You From Your Destiny. They May Be Bigger, Stronger, Or More Powerful, But God Knows How To Shift Things Around And Get You To Where You're Supposed To Be.

When You Come To A Dark Valley, A Difficult Season Or A Sickness, Don't Worry About It, God Will Give You The Grace And Strength You Need.

Quit Dwelling On The Negative Things People Have Said About You. You Don’t Have To Have Everyone’s Approval. You Have God’s Approval.

Take Time To Make A Difference. Don't Just Obsess About How You Can Make Your Life Better. Think About How You Can Make Somebody Else's Life Better As Well.

Making A Difference

Certainly, None Of Us Enjoy Going Through Struggles, But You Have To Understand That Your Struggle May Be An Opportunity For Advancement And Promotion. The Very Thing You Are Fighting Against So Tenaciously May Be The Springboard That Catapults You To A New Level Of Excellence. Your Challenges May Become Your Greatest Assets.

Sometimes You Have To Put Your Own Dreams On Hold Temporarily So You Can Help Release A Dream In Somebody Else. What You Make Happen For Others, God Will Make Happen For You.

Your Destiny Is Not Cancelled Because Of A Mistake, Because Of A Failure. Get Back Up And Go Again.

God Has Destined You To Soar. You Have Victory, Freedom And Excellence On The Inside.

When I Grew Up, The Devil Was A Reason Why I Had A Headache Or The Devil Was The Reason I Got Mad Today. We Always Blamed The Devil. I Think Today When I Say The Enemy, I Like To Make It Broader. Sometimes The Enemy Can Be Our Own Thoughts.

You May Have Made A Lot Of Wrong Choices, But You’ve Also Made A Lot Of Choices That Were Right. Focus On Your Good Qualities. Focus On Your Victories. Get Off The Treadmill Of Guilt.

Don't Make Excuses, Don't Blame The Past. The Rest Of Your Life Can Be The Best Of Your Life!

Rest Of Your Life

You Were Created To Make Somebody Else’s Life Better. Somebody Needs Your Smile. They Need Your Love, Your Encouragement & Your Gifts.

That's It. I'm Going To Start Making The Right Choices.

That's My Thing - Keep Filled With Faith. Keep Doing What You Can Do And I Believe God Will Do What You Can't Do.

You Need To Follow Your Own Heart In Light Of God’s Word And Do What You Feel Is Right And Good For You.

I Do Know This... I Seem To Reach A Lot Of Previously Unchurched People. So Many People Have Told Me They Never Went To Church Until They Heard Our Message Of Hope That God Is A Good God Who Desires To Bless Those Who Are Faithful And Obedient To Him Through Jesus Christ.

I Didn't Try To Copy My Dad Or Fit Into The Pressure Or The Mold That Everybody Tried To Make Me Fit Into.

It May Look Impossible, But God Can Do The Impossible. Just Because You Don’t See Anything Happening Doesn’t Mean God Is Not Working

Associate With People Of Vision. Be Around Those Who Inspire You And Motivate You To Reach Your Dreams.

When You Believe, It Activates God's Power.

When You Acknowledge God, He Will Go Before You And Make The Crooked Places Straight.

You Were Created To Excel. There’s No Limit To How High You Can Go In Life. Keep Stretching To The Next Level.

Keep Doing The Right. God Is Building Character In You, And You Are Passing That Test. Remember, The Greater The Struggle, The Greater The Reward.

Nothing In Life Has Happened To You. It's Happened For You. Every Disappointment. Every Wrong. Even Every Closed Door Has Helped Make You Into Who You Are.

The Marriage Partner Is Not Really The Problem. No Other Person Can Ultimately Make You Happy. You Must Learn How To Be Happy Within Yourself.

How To Be Happy

The Greatest Gift You Can Give Someone Is Your Time, Your Attention, Your Love, Your Concern.

Indeed, It Is As Important To Learn How To Receive A Blessing As It Is To Be Willing To Give One.

God Has Put People In Your Life On Purpose, Don't Live To Get, Live To Give.

Change The Way You Speak About Yourself And You Can Change Your Life.

I've Learned A Simple Principle: All I Have To Do Is Be The Best 'me' That I Can Be. One Day When I Read The Scripture About David, That He Fulfilled His Purpose For His Generation. I Knew God Spoke To Me.

Don't Be So Shortsighted That If It Doesn't Happen Right Now, You're Not Going To Be Happy. You Are Sowing Seeds That Will Reap A Great Harvest For Generations To Come.

If You Will Keep Being Your Best Right Where You Are, You Will Come Into More Favor, Promotion And Opportunity Than You Ever Imagined.

God Puts People In Our Lives On Purpose So We Can Help Them Succeed And Help Them Become All He Created Them To Be. Most People Will Not Reach Their Full Potential Without Somebody Else Believing In Them.

Nothing Can Take Your Joy; You Have To Give It Away. You're In Complete Control Of Your Happiness.

Let Go Of The Old, Take Hold Of The New And Believe That 2013 Will Be Your Best Year Yet!

Before You Leave The House, You Need To Make Up Your Mind That You’re Going To Stay Positive And Enjoy The Day No Matter What Comes Your Way. You Have To Decide Ahead Of Time.

The Question Is Not, 'do You Have A Problem?' The Question Is, 'does The Problem Have You?'

If We Say It Long Enough Eventually We're Going To Reap A Harvest. We're Going To Get Exactly What We're Saying.

Self Empowerment

Psalm 34 Says, 'those Who Trust In The Lord Will Never Lack Any Good Thing.' This Means If You Don't Have It Right Now, You Don't Need It Right Now. Our Attitude Should Be, 'i'm Equipped, Empowered And Anointed For This Moment. I Am Not Lacking, Shortchanged Or Inadequate. I Have What I Need For Today.'

Keep Honoring God With Your Life, Stay In Peace, Trust His Timing And God Will Open Doors That No Man Can Shut.

You Don't Have To Have A Great Gift For God To Use It In A Great Way.

I Always Try To Put A Seed Of Hope Into People's Hearts. I'm Not There To Teach Them Doctrine Necessarily, But To Let Them Know That God Is A Good God, And Has A Plan For Their Lives. Hopefully, That Will Restore Their Faith, Or Draw Them Into Faith.

As Long As You Have Breath, Someone Needs Your Talents.

No Matter How Many Times You Get Knocked Down, Keep Getting Back Up. God Sees Your Resolve. He Sees Your Determination. And When You Do Everything You Can Do, That’s When God Will Step In And Do What You Can’t Do.

Getting Back Up

Life Is Too Short To Live That Way. Learn To Travel Light. Every Morning When You First Get Up, Forgive The People That Did You Wrong The Day Before. Forgive Your Spouse For What They Said. At The Start Of The Day, Let Go Of The Disappointments, The Set Backs From Yesterday. Start Every Morning Fresh And New. God Did Not Create You To Carry Around All That Baggage. Let It Go And Move Forward In The Life Of Blessing He Has In Store For You!

God Wants Us To Prosper Financially, To Have Plenty Of Money, To Fulfill The Destiny He Has Laid Out For Us.

Life Begins Each Morning.

When Things Gets Difficult, And It Seems Like The Intensity Has Been Turned Up, That’s A Sign You Are Close To Your Victory.

Road To Success

Keep A Good Attitude And Do The Right Thing Even When It's Hard. When You Do That You Are Passing The Test. And God Promises You Your Marked Moments Are On Their Way.

God Will Not Pour Fresh, Creative Ideas And Blessing Into Old Attitudes.

Don't Focus On What's Wrong. Things May Not Be Perfect, But Be Grateful For The Opportunity To Experience Each Day. Live Each Day Like It Could Be Your Last.

Don't Go Into The New Year Holding A Grudge From Last Year. Leave The Hurts And Disappointments Behind.

When Nobody Else Celebrates You, Learn To Celebrate Yourself. When Nobody Else Compliments You, Then Compliment Yourself. It's Not Up To Other People To Keep You Encouraged. It's Up To You. Encouragement Should Come From The Inside.

Compliments You

You Don't Need Everyone To Help You. You Just Need One Touch Of Favor, And You Will Accomplish In A Split Second What Could Have Taken Your Whole Lifetime.

There May Be Times When You Just Have To Love People From A Distance.

If Your Thinking Is Limited, Your Life Will Be Limited.

When The Negative Thoughts Come - And They Will; They Come To All Of Us - It's Not Enough To Just Not Dwell On It... You've Got To Replace It With A Positive Thought.

Positive Thoughts

What You Expect Is What You Will Get.

You Will Never Rise Above The Image You Have Of Yourself In Your Own Mind.
