If you're dwelling on the past, you won't see the new thing. If you're focused on who hurt you and what wasn't fair, then you'll miss your destiny. God is saying, forget the former things, quit dwelling on your mistakes. This is a new day.

God created you to rise higher, to break barriers of the past, to overcome bad habits, and to be free from generational curses. People may have labeled you at risk, average, less than, but God labels you well able, equipped, anointed, creative, a masterpiece. The good news is that people don't determine your destiny; God does.

God didn't create you to get stuck at one level and stay there. He has new opportunities, new relationships, new favor. It may look like you'll always struggle in your life. No, get ready; something new is coming.

When God takes you higher, don't be surprised if you don't get approval from some of your friends, some of your family. They want to keep you in that same box, but God is taking you where you've never been.

Life is a plant that grows out of death.

The day you change your responses is the day your life will begin to get better.

It's time to begin righting the story of your life.

[The natural life] knows that if the spiritual life gets hold of it, all its self-centredness and self-will are going to be killed and it is ready to fight tooth and nail to avoid that.
