God resists the proud but gives grace to the humble (James 4:6). God gave Hezekiah financial success and miracles (2 Chronicles 32:20-30). But Hezekiah’s heart was proud, and he did not respond to God. Success is the toughest test because it feeds our pride. And pride goeth before a fall…
Our nature tends to GRAVITATE TOWARDS THE NEGATIVE, much like a car that is left in neutral, on a hill, tends to roll DOWNHILL. We can “fall” into a cycle of speaking negative words over our own lives. Which means it takes a conscious effort to be positive. It’s SO…

A cancer of the soul is unforgiveness that festers in our hearts and minds. If we aren’t extremely cautious, we can choose to overlook unforgiveness in our own heart and rationalize it in our minds, which leads to not forgiving completely! “Smart people know how to hold their tongue; their…
Doesn’t it bother you when people quit and take on a victim mentality? Quitters always say things like: It’s too hard I wish it were easier I just can’t do this They really want to be a success but they don’t want to be tested and they don’t want to…
