Pastor Joel
Psalm 34:10 The lions may grow weak and hungry,but those who seek the lord lack no good thing.
I am a successful person fighting off poverty. Abundance is my normal state!
I am a free person fighting off addiction. Freedom is my normal state!
I am a healthy person fighting off sickness! Healed is my normal state!

Oh, you'll clean the Egyptians out!" 17 For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory;
***Those children were the ones who made it to the promised land.
Deut 8:17 You may say to yourself, "My power and the strength of my hands have produced this wealth for me." 18 But remember the lord your God, for it is he who gives you the ability to produce wealth, and so confirms his covenant, which he swore to your ancestors, as it is today.
***God gave me the ability to produce wealth!!! I don't have to wait for a blue light special!
