If you're not sure what you're becoming, let me give you a hint. You're going to become whatever you think about and talk about all the time.

I can listen to you talk for 30 minutes and tell you exactly what you're going to become. It doesn't take a prophet to do that. It just takes someone who will listen to your words.

Subject To Change
So, listen to yourself. If you don't like what you hear, change it. Become someone better by beginning to think God's Word, talk God's Word and act on God's Word.

Nobody on earth can determine what you're going to become but you. Yes, you! Don't blame it on the devil. He can't change it. Don't blame it on your parents, your background or your circumstances.

Forget those things which are behind...and do what Abraham did. The Bible says "he considered not his own body now dead, when he was about an hundred years old, neither yet the deadness of Sarah's womb..." (Rom. 4:19).

He just said to himself, "Old man, you don't count. Neither do you, Granny. What counts is God's Word, and I am exactly who God says I am."

Do you want to become who God says you are? Do you want to be healed? Do you want to become free financially? Do you want to become a powerful witness in your neighborhood?

What is your dream? You can have it if you'll learn to live by faith.

If you don't have a dream yet, get one. Fill your heart full of the Word of God. Let Him show you what's possible. Trade your negative, natural hope for the supernatural promises of Almighty God and learn to "hope against hope."

The Right Source
I can tell you, your life will really be good when you're living Matthew, Mark, Luke and John instead of the 6 o'clock news. No, it will be better than good—it will be miraculous.

So miraculous, in fact, that sometimes when you tell people the Word of God will heal them, prosper them and set them free, they'll look at your life and say, "Sure it's easy for you to live by faith. You have a great life. But what can God do with a life as messed up as mine?"

Then you'll just smile and say, "Friend, God can do more for you than you'll ever dream. I can tell you that from experience. You see, I wasn't always this blessed...."
