PURSUE THE ETERNAL STORY

When we fix our eyes on the eternal rather than the temporal world around us, we are released into a meaningful life in line with God’s purposes for us. The more we align with God’s vision for our lives, the more effective we become—laying aside all weights and distractions that hinder us from fulfilling our destiny.

FRIENDSHIP WITH THE WORLD

1 John 2:15 tells us, “Do not love the world or anything in the world.” This can potentially be confusing when we know that God has called us to make an impact on the world with our gifts.

What is the difference between sharing love with the world and loving the world?

For you, my friend and sister, have a destiny without rival. Now go with the courage born of love and boldly— brashly —live it.

DECLARE GOD’S WORD OVER YOUR LIFE

God’s word is without rival—containing inherent power that is activated and released by faith. Boldly declaring God’s truth over yourself will impart strength within you and will shape your future. Each day, as you speak these words and Scriptures over your life, you’ll be empowered to live a life without rival.

My past is not my future. I am a daughter of destiny; where I have been is not where I am heading.

“I focus on this one thing: Forgetting the past and looking forward to what lies ahead.” (Philippians 3:13 NLT)
