No matter what the situation looks like. No matter the season you find yourself in you can have confidence in the fact that Jesus is with you. With Jesus in your boat, the best is yet to come.

In the waiting is where you are tested. In the waiting is where you build endurance and where you really have to lean into your FAITH.

From the person who is in the middle of a rough season right now to the person who is in the middle of birthing a God-sized dream...Be encouraged! Be not dismayed! And know that God is for you. Take refuge in the fact that the best is yet to come!

I'm wondering how many of us have a God-given dream. A dream that is so big and so crazy we know that only God can bring it to pass. And maybe for some of us, the road to seeing that Dream realized has been a rocky one, one that has been met with some “No’s” One that has led to some closed doors.

What if Abraham, in Genesis 15:5, stays in the tent satisfied with the 8-foot ceiling? Does he ever
become the father of many nations if he doesn’t take what Pastor Mark often calls “a two-foot
field trip?”

Praying hard is going twelve rounds with God. A heavyweight prayer bout with God Almighty can
be excruciating and exhausting, but that is how the greatest prayer victories are won. Praying
hard is more than words. It’s blood, sweat, and tears.

Often Pastor Mark will say we tend to overestimate what we can accomplish in a year. Of course,
we also tend to underestimate what we can accomplish in a decade.

If you are engaged with our sermon series, you know that we are right in the thick of our current series titled The Best is Yet to Come. NCC Daily is here to help us continue to walk through this season of dreaming big, praying hard, and thinking long.
