Coming into a Shift

Joel Osteen @ Lakewood Church
God can shift things into the right place. Because you honor God he will put you ahead.
Don't give up on past dreams because it's a new day.
-after years of unfair treatment God caused the Egyptians to change their minds toward the Israelites.
Exodus 12:36 NIV
The Lord  had made the Egyptians favorably disposed toward the people, and they gave them what they asked for; so they plundered the Egyptians.
Psalm 18:29 NIV
With your help I can advance against a troop; with my God I can scale a wall.
You can't have faith of you don't have hope.
Genesis 48:19 NIV
But his father refused and said, "I know, my son, I know. He too will become a people, and he too will become great. Nevertheless, his younger brother will be greater than he, and his descendants will become a group of nations."
Numbers 11:31 NIV
Now a wind went out from the Lord  and drove quail in from the sea. It scattered them up to two cubits deep all around the camp, as far as a day's walk in any direction.
Zechariah 4:6 KJV
Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the word of the Lord unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the Lord of hosts.

"Set the Pace"
Before we put on our natural clothes on we should put on our spiritual clothes.
Ephesians 6:11, 14-17 NIV
Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
Daniel 10:12 NIV
Then he continued, "Do not be afraid, Daniel. Since the first day that you set your mind to gain understanding and to humble yourself before your God, your words were heard, and I have come in response to them.
Daniel 9:23 NIV
As soon as you began to pray, a word went out, which I have come to tell you, for you are highly esteemed. Therefore, consider the word and understand the vision:
Just because we don't see it in the natural doesn't mean it isn't on the way.
When we speak negative words it's like pushing the stop button. We start to think negative because we don't see the results.
Decide to set your mind and keep it set. Everything that I want is out there.
Hebrews 10:25 NIV
not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching.
Get rid of people who are draining your time. God has already set me apart so. I need to act like it.
There's power in agreement.
