BENCHED ON THE PLAYING FIELD OF LIFE
Have you ever felt like you were sitting on the sidelines and watching
life play out before your eyes, wondering when it would be your turn?
Whether you have spent years waiting for a dream to come true or you've
been feeling left out while others around you succeed and move forward
with great success in their lives, you're not alone. There is a time for
everything, and although it might not be on your timeline, it will happen
when it's supposed to happen. Come hear a personal story of trials and
triumphs that have led to both a fulfilling and rewarding life and see
how you can apply those same principles to your own life as you wait for
God's timing.
REPROGRAMMING YOUR SOFTWARE FOR SUCCESS IN LIFE
Our minds work like a computer. The way you program it is the way it's going to function. Problems occur because somebody contaminates the software. When God created you, He created "another masterpiece." Your hardware is perfect. He programmed you to be victorious, healthy, strong, and creative. "Whatever you touch will prosper and succeed." We don't always experience this abundant life because we've allowed viruses to contaminate our software. We go around with low self-esteem, negativity, and doubt. It's time to reprogram your mind with the Word of God! Meditate on what He says about you, delete the viruses, and get back to your original software!
FROM VICTIM TO VICTOR: LIVING LIFE IN VICTORY
No matter what situation you find yourself in today, you are not a victim, you are a victor. God constantly and consistently goes before you and prepares the way for victory. He lines up the right people, the right breaks, the right opportunities. Get ready for His goodness in your life.
As a child of Almighty God, you never have to go through life as a victim. Today, you can live in victory!
