I want you to sense the Holy Spirit brooding over you. Is this too good to be true? You betcha, it's the good news. Does He border on fantasy? You betcha, it's the gospel. Glad tidings of great joy, heaven has come instead of hell, Jesus has come instead of the devil. You can have the life you always wanted, instead of the life you have always had - instead. That is possible because of the absolute, incredible, incomparable favor of God.
Graham CookeWhen youโre not fully trusting in the Lord youโre concerned mostly about rescue. โIโm a Christian, get me out of here!โ And the Lord is saying, โYouโre kidding, right? I want to teach you who you are in this situation!โ In some of our situations, He gives us power and authority to move. In other situations He gives us patience because that works just as powerfully, itโs just going to take a few extra weeks.

Graham CookeGod cannot change. He cannot be anything other than who He is. Out of His love and His promises, you were selected as His treasure. God's faithfulness has been the bedrock of His dealings with humanity throughout time.
Graham CookeAttack anything that makes you feel unworthy, inadequate, hopeless, powerless and useless. That is the evidence of the enemy. All those things need to be attacked with joy, with peace, with love and grace, with mercy, with kindness and the goodness of God.
