HOPE

The initial seed you sow, when you are believing God for a turnaround in any area of your life, is HOPE.

To keep hope alive, you must maintain your focus.

Be patient and recognize that God works with appointed times. Hold onto hope until there is a change in your circumstances, for heaven is moved by a resolute expectation.
The higher the expectation, the greater the manifestation!

"And this hope will not lead to disappointment. For we know how dearly God loves us, because he has given us the Holy Spirit to fill our hearts with his love." (Rom. 5:5, NLT).

WELCOME CHALLENGING TIMES

Welcome challenging times as opportunities to trust God.

You have Him beside you and His Spirit within you, so no set of circumstances is too much for you to handle.

When the path before you is dotted with difficulties, beware of measuring your strength against those challenges. That calculation is certain to riddle you with anxiety. Without God, you wouldn’t make it past the first hurdle!

The way to walk through demanding days is to grip God's hand tightly and stay in close communication with Him.

Let your thoughts and spoken words be richly flavored with trust and thankfulness. Regardless of the day’s problems, God can keep you in perfect Peace as you stay close to Him.

Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds.
—James 1:2

EXCHANGE

Shake off the shackles of fear and intimidation. Realize the abundant life Jesus bought for you.

Exchange your fear for faith; exchange timidity for confidence.

As a child of GOD, you have been delivered from the captivity of sin and death. Allow the liberty of GOD to flow in your life.

A divine exchange occurs when the children of God choose to no longer align with the enemy. Ring the bell -- Christ has set you free!

"But you belong to God, my dear children. You have already won a victory over those people, because the Spirit who lives in you is greater than the spirit who lives in the world." (1 John 4:4, NLT).

THE ENEMY

The enemy has access to you through your relationships, business dealings, environment, and even your imagination.

Beware, for the enemy has trusted tools that he uses against you -- those demonic cycles or patterns that you have fallen prey to, in previous circumstances.

Satan manipulates your mind through the success of your friends, by causing you to feel insecure. He knows that if you have low self esteem, you will not have faith to activate the anointing upon your life. By keeping you in this state, he pulls you further from God, your Father, which is his main objective.

"So you must live as God’s obedient children. Don’t slip back into your old ways of living to satisfy your own desires. You didn’t know any better then." (1 Pe. 1:14, NLT).

EVERYTHING WILL BE OK

When you face moments of silence and uncertainty,  you are experiencing a "pregnant pause."

Bear in mind that these moments precede big moves toward your destiny. Whenever the situation looks impossible, God is in a position to move in the realm of the miraculous.

All He needs is someone that will believe His Word, refusing to back down. It doesn't matter if you are at the edge of the Red Sea, before the walls of Jericho, or in a hospital bed.

Your miracle is not hidden from you; it is hidden FOR you.
Your steadfast faith will unlock it!

"The Lord replied, 'I will personally go with you... and I will give you rest—everything will be fine for you.'" (Exo. 33:14, NLT).

HEALTHY DIET

Whenever you try to run from GOD, the devil will even provide you with transportation.

If you are on a diet of satisfying your flesh, you are spiritually starving yourself to death!

In this state, you are at risk for picking up the diseases that surround you -- hate, pride, cursing, lying, lust.

Change what you allow in your spirit.

For whatever is within you, will eventually come out of you. Therefore, get on a healthy diet of taking in the WORD od GOD everyday!

"So you must live as God’s obedient children. Don’t slip back into your old ways of living to satisfy your own desires. You didn’t know any better then." (1 Pet. 1:14, NLT).

PAIN NOT WASTED

Everything happens for a reason! That reason causes change.

Although change can be hard and even painful at times, in the end, it is for the best.

There is a purpose, a lesson in every season God allows you to walk through.

Many become discouraged when change is forced upon them, as their faith is challenged.

But GOD uses the the hardest trial to strengthen you, the biggest setbacks to prepare you for the future He has planned for you, and the lowest moments to draw you closer to Him.

No pain is wasted when you place it in GOD's hand!

"And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them." (Rom. 8:28, NLT).
