God has the final say. It may have been meant for your harm, but instead of being a stumbling block, God will turn it into a stepping-stone to take you to the next level.

If you will put yourself in an environment with friends that challenge and inspire you, with people that push you up, then those seeds will take root, and you will begin to blossom. Get around dreamers, connect with people that are more talented, and glean from them.

The scripture says what God has blessed no one can curse. The blessing on you is more powerful than any betrayal, than any negative word spoken over you, than how you were raised, than people trying to discredit you.

When you know you have the blessing, you don’t live upset because people aren’t treating you right, worried about your finances, frustrated over the medical report. You stay in peace. You know God being for you is more than the world being against you.

You may have seen His blessings in the past, but you haven’t touched the surface of what He has in store. The scripture says, “We haven’t seen, heard, or imagined the amazing things God has for those that love Him.”

You may think, “What if I fail? What if I don’t have the funds? What if they say no?” You’ll never know unless you try. When you come to the end of life, will you have more regrets from the risks that you took or from the risks that you didn’t take?

You can be at peace with your scars. Nothing you’ve done is a surprise to God. He knew every mistake you would make. He knew every time you’d go the wrong way. He wouldn’t have allowed it if it was going to keep you from your purpose.

God doesn’t let us be comfortable all the time. There will be seasons of stretching, growing, where we’re not getting our way, the wrong thing is happening. The good news is God gives you strength for every battle, grace for every season.

He's a God of justice. He’s seen what you’ve been through; He’s seen what wasn’t fair. He’s saying to you today, "Payback is coming." Not partial, not halfway, not three fourths, you’re going to get it all back.

Keep doing the right thing when the wrong thing is happening. You’re not working unto people; you’re working unto God. Nobody can pay you back like God can pay you back.

God has new things He wants to birth, not just through you, but in you. Don’t complain because the water broke. Get ready. Increase is coming, new levels are coming, healing is coming, the right people are coming.

When you’re connected to people that are favored, people that are further along, that favor is going to flow down to you. There should be people in your life that inspire you, that challenge you, that make you strive to do better.

If you live with a limited vision, thinking that could never happen, it’s so far above anything you’ve ever seen, then you’re right. It’s not going to happen. Don’t think it’s impossible. God has ways to do it that you’ve never thought of.

You need people who think bigger than you, that dream bigger, that believe bigger. If you’re the smartest one in your group, your group is too small. Be inspired by this message from Joel, “Favor Connections". Get it here: c.osteen.co/Apodcast
