Whatever is in your heart in abundance is what’s going to come out of you when you find yourself in the difficulties of life. How do you prepare to overcome in every situation in 2026? Spend time in God’s Word! Proclaim God’s Word and remind yourself of His many promises to you. Don’t let the world and the devil throw you into fear and hopelessness—come against those lies with the truth of God’s Word!

If you have felt that it’s difficult to believe in or expect a miracle, remember that the greatest miracle of all is when you were born again. And the faith you released to receive the gift of salvation is enough faith to receive anything else you need!

We are God’s conduits of blessing. You can be a bathroom faucet or a huge industrial pipe, it’s up to you. God is pouring out His blessing from heaven 24 hours a day, but you decide the amount that will flow through you!

Right now, you and I can embrace the truth of God’s Word that says NO giant of sickness, lack, or oppression of any kind that comes against the living God can exist in the presence of the One who lives in us, who believes in us, and who goes about doing good and healing all who are oppressed of the devil!

During these days in which we’re living, it’s vitally important to understand that Satan has NO power! The only influence he has over us is what we give him when we believe his lies over the Word of the Living God!

At the heart of the New Covenant lies a deep confidence that God has ALREADY DONE everything for us. Our part is simply to respond—to allow Him to do for us and in us what His grace has already given to us. We enter into the rest of faith, believing what God has said and continuing to thank Him for it!

If Jesus walked into the room in person, would you do what He said? If so, then treat His Word in your hand just as you would Jesus in the flesh. When you do, the Bible will cease to be a history book and will instead become one of experiences to be discovered and lived!

You never have to lose your enthusiasm for life. There’s more to be discovered than years left to live! You have a great future, with unlimited faith potential and flawless truth to fall back on, even in the toughest of times. Don’t let time steal your dreams—God has plans for you!

It’s interesting that in the four Gospels the writers didn’t talk about Jesus’ appearance—His features, the color of His eyes or skin, His muscles, His height, His posture, or His hair. Modern writers focus on these things, but the Gospels are different. They are focused on His words and His wonders! Regardless of what we look like, Jesus is to be our model in love, compassion, response, action, authority, wisdom, purpose and power!

When doubt, fear and opposition come my way, I tune in to the one who lives on the inside of me and something begins to happen! I become bigger than life, because the Greater One lives on the inside of me. Scripture is clear, “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me” (Philippians 4:13)! That may sound unusual to you, but the imagination is a powerful tool that God has given us to bring His Word to life in us!
