Receive that into your heart and let it change your perspective. When a negative report comes, we have a choice to make. We can either believe what we’ve heard, or we can believe what God says in his word. When we believe the report of the Lord, we set ourselves up for victory!

Where you are headed is more important than where you’ve been. Keep looking forward and keep moving forward.

2 Peter 1:16
16 For we did not follow cleverly devised stories when we told you about the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ in power, but we were eyewitnesses of his majesty.
