Yes, God's promises are by faith, but many are kept in our understanding. He's already given us the land, but we must understand to dwell there. The world has us so distracted that it has taken our time to think, yet good decisions come from good understanding. So let's take back the time.

A happier life is a life that has learned to treasure the moments--to find treasure in every season, in people and things. This is where we find the strength to face the tough times.

The Father has given man authority on earth, but He needs our ask so He can be released to do what He desires: to bless you, prosper you, set you high above, and mark you as His own. He needs our faith and permission to release His will into our lives.

What can you do when you're facing the valley, and its darkness is closing in? Even from a down position, we can take it up a level. We can rise above the storm and soar like an eagle.

Do you have dark places in your life? It's in those places that God does His very best work. When you see God as the oppressor, He can't bring the power, but when you see Him as your Savior, He can change your pain into power. The key is to invite Him into your situation and let Him bring power from the pain.

If we want to save America, we have to roll up our sleeves and do what it takes to turn this thing around. Jesus showed us how, expecting that we would imitate Him.

Are you worried about our nation? I know it looks like we are losing badly--we seem to be losing on every front. But, I have good news for you, church. It may look like we are losing, but we win in the end, and I want to show you that the Bible has already revealed the strategy to save a nation.

The best life God has for you--the fulfilled life that he has prepared for you--is hidden in your total surrender to his plan.

I have good news for you. God has divine friendships for you--people who will pull you up, encourage you, and believe in what God has placed inside you. Maybe you haven't seen all that God has for you because you are in a wrong relationship.

We need a change in our world, and there is plenty to be upset about, but we are not victims of our circumstances, and the right voices always bring hope, peace, and rest.
