The true purpose of prayer is to get into God's presence so He can outline His agenda for us.

When we pray, we relieve ourselves of responsibility. We let go and let God. We take our hands off and put our concerns into the hands of Almighty God. And trust me, He can handle whatever we put in His hands.

Destiny is not a mystery. For better or worse, your destiny is the result of your daily decisions and defining decisions.

If faith is being sure of what we hope for, then being unsure of what we hope for is the antithesis of faith, isn't it? Well-developed faith results in well-defined prayers, and well-defined prayers result in a well-lived life.

We need to work like it depends on us, but we also need to pray like it depends on God. That's what consecration is all about. It's letting God do for us what we cannot do for ourselves. And that's how God gets all the glory. Consecration is a complete surrender to the lordship of Jesus Christ. We relinquish everything to God - our time, talent, and treasure. It's a complete divestiture. But the exchange rate is unbelievable.

If you seek answers you won't find them, but if you seek God, the answers will find you.

Sometimes you've got to do the natural before God will do the supernatural.

Part of discovering the adventure God has designed you for is learning how to frame it or reframe it.

Lord, surprise us.

If you establish a prayer routine, your life will be anything but routine. You will go to places, do things, and meet people you have no business going to, doing, or meeting. You don't need to seek opportunity. All you have to do is seek God. And if you seek God, opportunity will seek you.

When you see life as an adventure, your hopes and dreams are never more than a day away!

When I was in college, I wanted to be Joshua. Every time there was an altar call, I responded. Why? Because I didn't want to leave whatever gift God wanted to give me at the altar.
