You have a personal birthright to believe in a God-given mission for your life.

You can't be grateful for something you feel entitled to.

But Jesus wanted the crowd to know, look, 'John's (the baptist) the one who got this whole thing started.' In verse ten He says, 'This is the one about whom it is written, 'I'll send my messenger ahead of you who will prepare Your way before You.' Jesus says, 'If it wasn't for John, I wouldn't even be here performing these miracles.'

I want you to live in the middle of a move of God.

Winning the war of words inside your soul means learning to defy your inner critic.

Living your problems and loving them like locked rooms is much different from denying them or capitulating to them. It is believing that God is with you in the imperfect, even disappointing circumstances of your life. It is saying to Him with faith in your heart.

Great moves of God are usually preceded by simple acts of obedience.
