I believe God wants you to have money to pay your bills, send your kids to college and do charity work and build orphanages. There's the teaching that we're supposed to be poor to show that we're humble. I don't buy that. I think we're supposed to be leaders. We're supposed to excel.

God's got you in the palm of His hand. You won't leave one second before your time. If God wants you to be here, then you're going to be here.

No matter what comes your way, shake it off and move forward. When you have a positive mindset, you can't be defeated.

I preach that anybody can improve their lives. I think God wants us to be prosperous. I think he wants us to be happy. To me, you need to have money to pay your bills. I think God wants us to send our kids to college. I think he wants us to be a blessing to other people. But I don't think I'd say God wants us to be rich. It's all relative, isn't it?

Quit worrying about people that are trying to hold you back. God knows how to move the wrong people out of your life and bring the right people in. He knows how to prepare you to Break Out.

Don't be intimidated by the size of your problem or the size of your dream. God will see to it that it is finished completely.

Don't make excuses, don't blame the past. The rest of your life can be the best of your life!
