You can not payoff God. There’s one thing God requires from us.

Read: Proverbs 21:3

To do righteousness and justice
Is more acceptable to the Lord than sacrifice.

Speaking negative words about yourself, your spouse, your friends, your job and associates only limits one’s self. Speak well of all or don’t speak at all.

Read: Joel 3:10

Beat your plowshares into swords
And your pruning hooks into spears;
Let the weak say, ‘I am strong.’ ”

When you don’t see… continue to Trust God.

Read: 1 Samuel 17:45-47

⁴⁵ Then David said to the Philistine, “You come to me with a sword, with a spear, and with a javelin. But I come to you in the name of the Lord of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied. ⁴⁶ This day the Lord will deliver you into my hand, and I will strike you and take your head from you. And this day I will give the carcasses of the camp of the Philistines to the birds of the air and the wild beasts of the earth, that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel. ⁴⁷ Then all this assembly shall know that the Lord does not save with sword and spear; for the battle is the Lord’s, and He will give you into our hands.”

We have a guarantee which eliminates all fear.

Read: Isaiah 43:1-3

But now, O Jacob, listen to the Lord who created you.
    O Israel, the one who formed you says,
“Do not be afraid, for I have ransomed you.
    I have called you by name; you are mine.
² When you go through deep waters,
    I will be with you.
When you go through rivers of difficulty,
    you will not drown.
When you walk through the fire of oppression,
    you will not be burned up;
    the flames will not consume you.
³ For I am the Lord, your God,
    the Holy One of Israel, your Savior.
I gave Egypt as a ransom for your freedom;
    I gave Ethiopia and Seba in your place.

You do not have to float around life like a loose balloon.

Read: John 15:5 

“Yes, I am the vine; you are the branches. Those who remain in me, and I in them, will produce much fruit. For apart from me you can do nothing.

Be quiet and go about doing good in secret. It Allows God to reward you openly.

Read: Matthew 6:1-2 

“Watch out! Don’t do your good deeds publicly, to be admired by others, for you will lose the reward from your Father in heaven. ² When you give to someone in need, don’t do as the hypocrites do—blowing trumpets in the synagogues and streets to call attention to their acts of charity! I tell you the truth, they have received all the reward they will ever get.

You are thinking backwards when you’re waiting to praise the Lord. Praise Him first because of who He is.

Read: Psalms 150:2

Praise him for his mighty works;
    praise his unequaled greatness!

Dismiss your insecurity and release past mistakes if you want God to help you… You must come boldly to God.

Read: Hebrews 4:16

So let us come boldly to the throne of our gracious God. There we will receive his mercy, and we will find grace to help us when we need it most.

What ever God has decreed for you will surely come in His timing. Sarah was in her 90’s. Never doubt the Lord.

Read: Genesis 18:14 

Is anything too hard for the Lord? I will return to you at the appointed time next year, and Sarah will have a son.”

Declare your freedom in the Lord and then stand you ground to keep it.
