I’ve come too far to stop now.

Weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning.

Psalm 30:5

Thomas Edison failed in his attempt to create a workable lightbulb 10,000 times before creating one that finally worked. In his words 'I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.'  

We all have dreams. It may take a while for us to accomplish those dreams.  So when the obstacles seem too great, don’t get discouraged. Success is always closer than you think. Just keep moving forward. This is what I keep reminding myself, 'I’ve come too far to stop now.'

Wake up with an attitude of expectancy. God wants us to be hopefully expectant. No matter how impossible, or hopeless a situation may look, your eyes should be fixed on God. Thing is from the human perspective, we don't see much happening. But know this, God is working behind the scenes. It’s not what people say, it’s what God says. Expect Victory!

Take your dreams and the promises God has put in your heart and every day declare that they will come to pass. Walk by faith.

The greatest difficulty always comes right before the realization of a dream. This could feel like the biggest battle, ever. But with the greatest of battles, comes the greatest of victories. Be strong and stay encouraged. Keep believing and know that God is faithful. 

Know that the enemy, will throw all obstacles on your path to stop you. He stops you not for who you are, but for who you will be. He knows that once you achieve the impossible, your greatest song of glory, will be to God. Don’t give up on a dream. If you find yourself stranded, know this that you have the Almighty breathing in your direction. Keep that dream alive. Everything happens in God's good time. And God always has a way to bring it to pass.

Remember: that it is always darkest before the dawn. Expect God’s favour, and you’ll see God do amazing things. Like I always say, 'I've come too far to stop now.'
