8. I believe He’ll give me double for my trouble and when you believe like that you get like that.
9. You have accepted some things as normal and adjusted your way of life to accommodate something that was never meant to be. You just go sit there and let the enemy take your stuff, take your life, take your family, take your son, take your daughter, take your grandkids? You just go lay back and let him have your job, have your influence, have your business? You just gonna hand it over without a fight? You not go fight or nothing? You not go to spiritual warfare?

16. As long as you were a spectator, the devil was alright with that, but the moment you start raving your head and worshiping God, all hell breaks loose.
17. It’s an urge. Every champion has felt it. Every president has felt it. Every King has felt it. Every lion has felt it. Every winner has felt it. Every soldier has felt it. Every victorious person has felt it. The urge to quit. Don’t you give up on your dream.

21. You can’t get enough people to tell you that you are pretty when you think you’re ugly.
22. If you’re looking for a leadership, you don’t always have to look to the front to find it. Great leadership doesn’t start out on the stage. It doesn’t start out as governor’s or mayor’s or presidents or CEOs or managers. Great leadership starts out in the back.

27. Do not allow the cares of this world destroy your passion for living. You have to run after it. Success is always intentional.
28. Don’t let anybody tell you that being in the will of God means you won’t get in trouble, because Jesus was in the will of God when He went to the cross. Job was in the will of God and got in all kinds of trouble – lost his children, lost his stuff, lost his marriage and everything, all of his friends came along and said you man you must not be living right, but God said that Job was a faithful and an upright man that eschewed evil.
29. I don’t know what you’re going through in your life. I don’t know what you’ve got to deal with at this moment, but whatever that thing that shocked you and blindsided you and seemingly came out of nowhere, the battle is not yours it belongs to God. God is going to get the victory if you just believe it.
30. You are no better than the thuoghts you think. If you think little, you go little. If you think weak, you go weak.

32. Some of you think the victory is getting rid of the thorn and you’ve been praying for years trying to get rid of the thorn, but the thorn is not the issue. It’s a distraction. What God is trying to teach you through the thorn is that you can have the thorn and do it anyway. You think you don’t have the victory until you get rid of the thorn, but the thorn is not the problem. It’s something for you to exercise with.
33. Never make a permanent decision about a temporary situation.
34. If you run after your destiny, you will automatically distance yourself from your history. If you run after what’s in front of you, you will escape what’s behind you.35. I will not face a giant without you. I will not make a major decision without prayer. I will not bring somebody into my life just because they please me. I’ll submit myself, my destiny, my future over to you. You are my foundation. You are my rock. You are my fortress. You are my strength. You are my defense, without you I can’t do nothing.

39. Jehovah brought the children of Israel out of Egypt, not just to wash them in the blood or dip them in the water and not just to destroy Pharaoh. He brought their generation out to change the culture. It was supposed to be a three days journey. It took 40 years. It should have been a three days journey, but it took them 40 years. He let them go around, and around, and around the same mountain for 40 years. You’re having the same argument with the same husband for the last 20-some years. You’ve gone through the same pattern of the same stuff with the same child for the last 10 years. You’ve been putting up with the same craziness on the same job for the last 25 years. You tried to leave and you tried to quit. But God just let you wander around the same mountain over and over again and you thought victory was changing the mountain but victory is the mountain changing you.
40. You will never completely be healed or whole until you change the voice inside of your own head.

42. If you run after your destiny, you won’t have to fight with your history.
43. Are you committed? Because without commitment nothing happens.
44. Sometimes, you’re asking God to fix things that He sent in your life to give you discipline, training and get you how to really be a Christian and stop just being somebody who goes to the father’s house.
45. Stop focusing on what you lost and start living on what you’ve got left.
46. Don’t be so aware of the storm that you lose awareness of the God in the storm.47. You do make a difference. As weak as you are, as tired as you are, as many mistakes as you made, you do make a difference. There is something they would lose if you were not there. You do make a difference.
48. God will give you downtown to prep them for the pressure of what He’s about to release in your life.
49. You gotta run after your destiny. You can’t stroll after your destiny. You can’t walk after your destiny. You gotta run after your destiny.

52. Don’t spend all your time trying to fix what’s behind you, because you’ll never be able to fix what’s behind you. You have to run after what’s in front of you.
