You May Be At A Crossroads In Your Life. You May Have Issues To Deal With; People You Need To Forgive. You Can Go One Of The Two Ways. You Can Ignore What You Now Know To Be True And Keep Burying That Bitterness In Your Life, Pushing It Deeper And Allowing It To Poison And Contaminate You And Those Around You. Or You Can Make A Much Better Choice By Getting It Out In The Open And Asking God To Help You To Totally Forgive And Let It All Go.

Difficult Times Don't Come Your Way Just So You Can Survive Them; God Uses These Times In Your Life To Form And Refine You.

You Don't Have To Live Up To Anyone's Expectations, Just Be The Best You Can Be

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.

The Greatest Difficulty Always Comes Right Before The Birth Of A Dream.

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.

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.

True Love Turns Words And Feelings Into Actions.

Where God Gives Vision He Always Provides Provision

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

To Live Your Best Life Now, You Must Learn To Trust God’s Timing, You May Not Think He’s Working, But You Can Be Sure That Right Now, Behind The Scenes, God Is Arranging All The Pieces To Come Together To Work Out His Plan For Your Life.

I Mean We All Need A Second Chance Sometimes.

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

The Main Rule To Me Is To Honor God With Your Life. To Live A Life Of Integrity. Not Be Selfish. You Know, Help Others. But That's Really The Essence Of The Christian Faith.

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

At The Start Of Each New Day, Remind Yourself: I Am Talented. I Am Creative. I Am Greatly Favored By God. I Am Equipped. I Am Well Able. I Will See My Dreams Come To Pass.

I Don't Really Know What The Prosperity Gospel Is. The Way I Define It Is That I Believe God Wants You To Prosper In Your Health, In Your Family, In Your Relationships, In Your Business, And In Your Career. So I Do ... If That Is The Prosperity Gospel, Then I Do Believe That.

Why Don't You Start Believing That No Matter What You Have Or Haven't Done, That Your Best Days Are Still Out In Front Of You.

God Would Not Have Put A Dream In Your Heart If He Had Not Already Given You Everything You Need To Fulfill It.

Make The Decision And Say, "i'm Not Letting That Worry In. I'm Done Being Upset When My Plans Don't Work Out. I'm Not Letting That Stress In." Negative Thoughts Will Still Come To Your Mind, But You Don't Have To Let Them Into Your Spirit.

Your Problems Are Not There To Defeat You, They Are There To Increase You.

If You Will Lie About The Little Things, Before Long You’ll Lie About Bigger Things.

I Like To Think My Dad Was Easygoing And Kind, And I Think Some Of Those Things Have Been Passed Down. I Am Like Him In A Sense Of Being Positive And Hopeful. He Was Compassionate, And I've Got A Lot Of That In Me As Well.

We Can Be Civil. We Can Still Be Friends, And Be Democrats And Republicans, And Have Different Views.

When You Are Committed To Doing What’s Right, You Are Sowing Seeds For God’s Blessings. You Will Never Go Wrong By Taking The High Road And Doing More That Is Required.

Taking The High Road

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.

Life Begins Each Morning.

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.

Keep On Keeping On!!!

Your Time Is Too Valuable, Your Destiny Is Too Great, And Your Future Is Too Bright To Waste A Single Moment. Be A Now Person.

You May Be At A Crossroads In Your Life. You May Have Issues To Deal With; People You Need To Forgive. You Can Go One Of The Two Ways.

Or You Can Make A Much Better Choice By Getting It Out In The Open And Asking God To Help You To Totally Forgive And Let It All Go.

I Think Bible Principles Are Principles For Life.

God Doesn’t Care What You’re Not. He Cares Who You Are. You Are His, You Come From The Master, And When He Adds His Extra To Your Ordinary And His Super To Your Natural, Nothing Is Impossible For You.

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

You Need To Associate With People Who Inspire You, People That Challenge You To Raise Higher, People That Make You Better. Don't Waste Your Valuable Time With People That Are Not Adding To Your Growth. Your Destiny Is Too Important.

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

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.

Don't Confuse Small With Insignificant.

I Believe That God's Dream Is That We Be Successful In Our Careers, And That We Be Able To Send Our Kids To College. I Don't Mean That Everyone Is Going To Be Rich, And I Preach A Lot On Blooming Where You're Planted. But I Don't Have The Mindset That Money Is A Bad Thing.

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.

If You Know You Have To Wait Anyway, Why Not Make A Decision To Enjoy Your Life While You’re Waiting? Why Not Be Happy While God Is In The Process Of Changing Things? After All, There’s Nothing We Can Really Do To Make It Happen Any Faster. We Might As Well Relax And Enjoy Our Lives, Knowing That At The Appointed Time God Is Going To Bring His Plan To Pass.

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

God Loves To Use Ordinary People Just Like You And Me, Faults And All, To Do Extraordinary Things.

God Never Promised That We Wouldn’t Have Challenges. In Fact, He Said Just The Opposite. His Word Says, ‘be Truly Glad!...these Trials Are Only To Test Your Faith, To See Whether Or Not It Is Strong And Pure…’ So If Your Faith Remains Strong After Being Tried In The Test Tube Of Fiery Trials, It Will Bring You Much Praise And Glory And Honor On The Day Of His Return.

Listen Carefully To The Words And Tone Of Voice You Use With Your Spouse. Are You Complaining All The Time And Telling Her What She's Not Doing Right? Or Are You Doing Like Solomon-blessing, Encouraging, And Uplifting That Woman?

You Can Take Pride In Yourself Without Comparing Yourself To Anybody Else. If You Run Your Race And Be The Best That You Can Be, Then You Can Feel Good About Yourself.

You Were Never Created To Live Depressed, Defeated, Guilty, Condemned, Ashamed Or Unworthy. You Were Created To Be Victorious.

Nobody Owes Me Anything. I Am Not At A Disadvantage. I Am Equipped, Empowered, And Anointed.

My Friends And I Had Fun Together, But I Was More Reserved, Not At All The Life Of The Party. I Would Just Be The Quiet One In The Room.

Happiness Does Not Depend On Your Circumstances; It Depends On Your Will. It's A Choice That You Make.

If You Can Be A Blessing To Somebody Else, You're Sowing A Seed For God To Help You.

You Weren’t Created To Simply Exist, To Endure, Or To Go Through The Motions; You Were Created To Be Really Alive.

God's Got You In The Palm Of His Hand. You Won't Leave One Second Before Your Time. If God Wants You To Be Here, Then You're Going To Be Here.

Let Go Of Offence. Let Go Of Fear. Let Go Of Revenge. Don't Live Angry, Let Go Now!

Today Could Be The Start Of Something Amazing.

You Can't Live A Positive Life Thinking Negative Thoughts. Dwell On The Positive.

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

I Write All My Sermons.

If You’re Going To Do Anything Great In Life, There Will Be Opposition, Setbacks, Delays And Critics. When You Have Big Dreams, You’re Going To Have Big Challenges.

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.

Whether A Person Is Straight Or Gay, Republican, Democrat, Good Person, Not A Good Person, They're All Welcome, Because To Me, Church Is A Place You're Supposed To Get Healed And Whole And Loved.

When You Go Through Difficult Times...recognize That God Is Refining You, Knocking Off Some Of Your Rough Edges.

Difficult Times

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

We’re Not Always Going To Be Here. Live Life To The Full, With Purpose & Passion, Pursuing Your Dreams.

Faith Is Not In Your Head. Faith Is In Your Heart. Sometimes You Have To Turn Your Mind Off And Listen To Your Heart.

If You Can See The Invisible, God Will Do The Impossible.

My Daddy Tried To Get Me Up To Speak For The 17 Years That I Worked Behind The Scenes, But I Never Had The Desire. Naturally, I Was Nervous And Kind Of Shy. I Just Didn't Want To Do It.

I Think How You Start The Day Many Times Determines What Kind Of Day You're Going To Have.

Opposition Is Not There To Stop You, It’s There To Establish You.

Faith Is About Trusting God When You Have Unanswered Questions.

Unanswered Questions

If You Never Feel Like Giving Up, Then Your Dreams Are Too Small

You Cannot Expect Victory And Plan For Defeat.

I Think That Bible Principles Will Help Anybody.

I Just Think That It's Strong And It's Important That We Recognize What The Christmas Season Is About; It's About The Birth Of Our Savior, And There's A Lot Of Pressure Today To Be Politically Correct ,but People Are Realizing, Too, That You Have To Be Open To Express Your Faith What You Want Believe.

Let's Be The Kind Of People That Do Good For Others Whether We Get Paid Back Or Not, Whether They Say Thank You Or Not.

Saying Thank You

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.

Stones Of Judgment, Discouragement Or Doubt May Be Thrown At You. You Can't Stop Them, But You Can Make The Choice To Keep Your Walls Up And Not Let Them Affect You.

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

See, People Are Watching You. Especially Your Children. They're Taking In Every Single Thing You Do. They Are Like Video Cameras With Legs. And They Are Always In The Record Mode. They Learn More From What You Do Than From What You Say.

Don't Ever Say Anything Negative About Yourself.

You Have To Turn It Around And Say God Still Has A Great Plan For My Life. I May Not Understand Things That Happen, But Faith Is All About Trusting When You Don't Understand It.

The Greater The Giving, The Greater The Living.

It's Not Who You Are, But Whose You Are That Counts. Because God Is Your Heavenly Father, Doors Of Opportunity Will Open For You.

No Matter What's Happening, Choose To Be Happy. Don't Focus On What's Wrong. Find Something Positive In Your Life. Thank God For The Small Things.

Maybe You Once Were Excited About That Person God Supernaturally Brought Into Your Life As A Marriage Partner, But Now All The Excitement Has Worn Off. Don’t’ Allow That Sense Of A Miracle To Slip Away. Don’t Get So Familiar With Each Other That You Take One Another For Granted.

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.

It's Flattering To People Who Stop You And Say That You've Helped Them And All. But, Again, You Know, You've Got To Stay Humble Because As Quick As You Came Up, You Can Come Down.

Choose Today To Let The Peace Of Christ Rule In Your Heart And Have An Attitude Of Gratitude Toward The Lord. Even If You Have Things That Are Upsetting You, Take A Step Of Faith And Begin To Thank God For His Goodness In Your Life. Thank Him For Working Behind The Scenes On Your Behalf. As You Do, You Will Walk Forward Into The Life Of Blessing He Has In Store For You!

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."

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.

I Purposely Don't Talk About Money, Because People Are Already Skeptical About Tv Preachers. But I Do Say That I Want You To Be Blessed. To Me, Prosperity Is Having Health, Having Great Children, Having Peace, Good Relationships. It's Not About The Money.

I Try To Teach People That I Believe God Wants Us To Be Positive Toward Ourselves, Meaning That, You Know What, I Like The Way I Look, I Like The Way I Sound, I'm Happy With What I'm Doing In My Career - And Not Always Be Beating Ourselves Down.

You Can Have Average Talent, But When God Breathes On Your Life, You Will Go Further Than People That Have Great Talent. Don't Talk Yourself Out Of It.

If Prosperity Means God Wants Us To Be Blessed And Healthy And Have Good Relationships Then Yes, I'm A Prosperity Teacher. But If It's About Money, No, I Never Preach About Money. I Probably Stay Away From It More Than Normal Because Televangelists Get A Bad Name. People Put Me In That Category Because I Do Believe That God Does Want Us To Be Happy, Healthy, And Whole.

I Don't Like To Beat People Down. They Need To Be Lifted Up.

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.

I Was Reading In The Bible And One Translation Says That Jesus Said That If You Publicly Will Acknowledge Me Before People, I Will Acknowledge You Before My Father In Heaven. So That Is A Big Part Of These Meetings Like Night Of Hope, Giving People An Opportunity To Publicly Say, "jesus, I Believe You Are The Messiah, You're Christ, You're My Lord."

My Actions Will Follow My Expectations.

Life Is Not Too Short... We Just Wait Too Long To Begin It.

Every Twenty-four Hours God Has A Fresh New Supply Of Grace, Of Favor, Of Wisdom, Of Forgiveness.

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.

We’ve Got To Give People Room To Have A Bad Day.

If You Want Your Life To Get Better, Sometimes The Best Thing You Can Do Is To Help Improve Somebody Else's Life.

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

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.

I Think Faith Is Incredible Important Because You Will Become Overwhelmed With What's Happening And You Will Have Waves Of Grief, But When You Turn To Your Faith, I Believe God Will Give You Waves Of Grace To Get Through It.

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.

I Don't Have All The Answers.

Wake Up Every Morning With A Thankful Attitude. Expect Something Good To Happen In Your Life Today.

See, When You Drive Home Today, You've Got A Big Windshield On The Front Of Your Car. And You've Got A Little Bitty Rearview Mirror. And The Reason The Windshield Is So Large And The Rearview Mirror Is So Small Is Because What's Happened In Your Past Is Not Near As Important As What's In Your Future.

Your Best Days Are Still Out In Front Of You

I Like Sports, And I Enjoy Playing Basketball And Lifting Weights.

Lifting Weights

At This Very Moment, God’s Working Behind The Scenes In Your Life, Arranging Things In Your Favor. Stay In Faith!

I Believe That When You Think Of The Negative, And You Get Up Discouraged - 'there's Nothing Good In My Future' - I Really Believe It Almost Ties The Hands Of God. God Works Where There's An Attitude Of Faith. I Believe Faith Is All About Hope.

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

I Just Think That Trusting God Means We're Going To Have Unanswered Questions, And God Is So Much Bigger Than Us, We're Never Going To Understand Them All.

Unanswered Questions

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

When You Get Knocked Down, Don't Stay Down; Get Back Up Again. Nothing Good Is Going To Happen As Long As You're Down On Yourself.

Getting Back Up

God's Dream Is That You Have An Abundance, That You Be Totally Out Of Debt, Pay Your House Off, Pay Your Credit Cards Off, And Have So Much Overflow That You Can Be A Blessing To Everyone Around You!

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.

Quit Worrying About How Everything Is Going To Turn Out. Live One Day At A Time; Better Yet, Make The Most Of This Moment. It’s Good To Have A Big – Picture Outlook, To Set Goals, To Establish Budgets And Make Plans, But If You’re Always Living In The Future, You’re Never Really Enjoying The Present In The Way God Wants You To.

Sometimes We Focus On The Mess Or The Broken Dream, But In All The Mess God Sees Greatness. He Knows How To Take Your Troubles And Turn Them Into Trophies, How To Take The Test And Make It Your Testimony.

It Takes The Same Amount Of Energy To Worry As It Does To Believe.

God's Desire Is That We Excel.

You Must Quit Looking At What You Don’t Have And Start Believing That All Things Are Possible.

People Of Excellence Go The Extra Mile To Do What's Right.

I Feel Like My Message Is To Let People Know That God Is A Good God, That He's On Their Side, And No Matter What Happens, He Has A Great Plan For Them.

I Think The First Thing To Do Is To Be Aware That You Can Choose What You're Thinking About And That Your Life Is Going Down The Path That You're Thinking.

Today, Use Your Words To Lift Up And Bless The People Around You.

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.

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.

What You Expect Is What You Will Get.

I Don't Mind Saying, You Know, That I Don't Take A Salary From The Church, And God Has Blessed Me With More Money Than I Could Imagine From My Books.

I'm Not For Gay Marriage, But I'm Not For Discriminating Against People.

If You'll Spend Time Praying For People Instead Of Talking About Them, You'll Get Better Results.

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.

Never Let Discouraging People And Discouraging Situations Talk You Out Of Your Dream.

We Minister The Word Of God. The Proclamation Of The Gospel Comes After Individuals Have Opened Their Hearts To God And Turned From Themselves To Others. Only Then Are They Truly Ready To Hear And Benefit Fully From The Word Of The Lord.

God Works Where There's An Attitude Of Faith. I Believe Faith Is All About Hope.

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

Don’t Fall In Love With The Blessings. Fall In Love With The Blessor. Seek First The Kingdom & God Will Reward You!

Falling In Love

Our Whole Message Is It's Easy To Just Keep Preaching To The Church And People That Already Come.

To Me, It's Ok To Have Differences. But We Don't Have To Be Mad About It. You Know? And I Think That's Where Sometimes We Get So Passionate That We - You Know, It Turns Into Anger.

Don't Live Worried, Frustrated Or Upset Because Of What Somebody Did Or What Didn't Work Out. Come Back To A Place Of Peace. It's Not Going To Work Against You; It's Going To Work For You.
