We can’t listen to naysayers 2. We have to do our part 3. We need faith KEY POINTS: * We need to surround ourselves with people who believe in and know what the Lord can do * Do not let other people discourage you from seeking solace in Christ and knowing that he is capable of working out all things * We need to continue to fellowship with others because people can provide the prayer, encouragement, and kind words we need to help us press forward * We need to continue to order our steps towards Jesus * We must be determined to win in spite of our situation * God’s answer is always right on-time * We need to always have communication with the Lord * Trust in the Lord in all things and in every situation * Remember to give God all the praise and all the honor * Without faith it is impossible to please God * You need to talk to your situation, speak life! * God is concerned about your faith, your trust in the Lord, and your obedience * Do you know who your Jesus is? | ||||||||||||
