Happy Friday!
My cousin Katie’s surgery seems to have been a great success… so thanks for praying everyone!
This Sunday at Destiny Family Center, I’m preaching a Sunday before THANKSGIVING service: “Have You Been Defeated Long Enough, Yet?”
I’m going to present my theory about why so many people are stuck in a rut… and how so many people can CLIMB OUT IMMEDIATELY!
Most of the time, victory and defeat is merely a manifestation of BELIEF!
Beliefs establish posture… they manifest in corresponding actions. Our lives eventually become whatever we believe they have been, they are, and they ought to be!
Whatever we FOCUS on and monitor GROWS aggressively! Focus empowers an outcome just like water and sunlight turn a SEED into a TREE!
If we believe our world is crappy and we rivet all our focus on all the undesirable outcomes of our past… we empower the crap to multiply itself into our present and future.
If instead, we rivet our FOCUS on the GOD of our universe… if we add TREMENDOUS MAGNIFICATION to his GREATNESS and we FOCUS on his matchless potential IN US… if we FOCUS on and monitor HIS MOVEMENTS in our lives… HIS EFFECTS WILL GROW AND GROW AND GROW!
This is because, whatever we PRAISE gets bigger… and bigger… and bigger! What a phenomenal theme to cover less than one week away from Thanksgiving!
12 great questions for every person to answer:
- What do you BELIEVE about your past, present, and future?
- Have you been victimized OR have you been EDUCATED?
- Do you believe yourself a person doomed to meaninglessness or destined for a life of untold favor and blessing and meaning-fullness!
- Can God actually perform a real miracle in your life?
- How FAST can God turn your situation(s) around?
- How BIG is God in your world?
- Is your concept of a Great Big God hilariously contrasted with your concept of a teeny tiny devil?
- Do you spend your days complaining about the painful past or ANTICIPATING a fantastic future?
- Is your FAITH leading the way… or… are your FEARS eroding away at the lead you once had?
- What are you super-sizing with FOCUS… in your world, these days?
- If your life hinged on the magnitude of your praise, which direction is your life going right now?
- If PRAISE really was the most epic weapon of warfare in the entire universe, how extravagantly would you be willing to PRAISE God, and… how frequently would you do this?
Answer these 12 questions and you will be READY for this Sundays message!
2 Chronicles 20:22-26 NLT At the very moment they BEGAN to sing and give praise, the Lord caused the armies of Ammon, Moab, and Mount Seir to start fighting among themselves. 23 The armies of Moab and Ammon turned against their allies from Mount Seir and killed every one of them. After they had destroyed the army of Seir, they began attacking each other. 24 So when the army of Judah arrived at the lookout point in the wilderness, all they saw were dead bodies lying on the ground as far as they could see. Not a single one of the enemy had escaped. 25 King Jehoshaphat and his men went out to gather the plunder. They found vast amounts of equipment, clothing,[e] and other valuables-more than they could carry. There was so much plunder that it took them three days just to collect it all! 26 On the fourth day they gathered in the Valley of Blessing,[f] which got its name that day because the people praised and thanked the Lord there. It is still called the Valley of Blessing today.
