From the VALLEY to the VICTORY! 

Today, we find ourselves in the valley. Some are in the valley of cancer or another diagnosis. Others are in a valley of financial hardship. Some are trudging through a valley of anxiety or depression. We have to cross the valley to get to our victory, just like Joshua and Israel. We don’t like that. We want to be air-lifted out of the whole situation, but God wants us to go through the valley to reach the victory. "But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ." 1 Corinthians 15:57 NKJV

You can have victory over any situation or emotion in your life. Anytime you begin to feel despair in any area, just grab hold of that thought and hold it up to the truth that God has given you the victory. 2 Corinthians 10:5 calls that process taking every thought captive.

• Keep your eyes on Jesus!
• When you are low in spirit, the enemy makes you think it won't get any better than what you are currently going through!
• If trouble never came, you wouldn't have ever known that God could get you out of it!
• One of the tools that the enemy is using right now is “DISCOURAGEMENT”.
• Discouragement is an UNWELCOME visitor trying to work its way into our lives!
• God is getting ready to do something for us, and the way the enemy is going to try to get us to abort it is through discouragement!
• A lot of times people don't want to go through the VALLEY process, but they want the rewards from the VICTORY!
• God knows what you need, and He knows when you need it!

Prayer 

Lord, when I feel overwhelmed, you always answer me and restore my faith.  But praising you after you answer me, is gratitude, not faith, so Lord please help me to have Strong Faith so that even when I’m in the valley I know I have a Victory with you!
